Rogue

  • 154,000 miles
The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Rogue. While driving 70 mph, the contact applied the accelerator pedal, but the vehicle failed to respond. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The contact attempted to apply the accelerator pedal again and the vehicle took 34 seconds to respond. The vehicle was taken to battles Nissan (60 macarthur blvd, bourne, MA 02532, (774) 302-0313) where it was diagnosed that a cvt fuel cooler had to be installed in order for the power train to return to normal the vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and provided case number: 36126158. The contact was informed to call NHTSA. The failure mileage was approximately 154,000.

The cvt transmission torque converter clutch experiences intermittent failures when traveling at highway speeds. The vehicle cannot maintain normal highway speeds and slows to dangerously slow speeds for highway driving, forcing the vehicle to pull off. Once stopped, the vehicle sometimes cannot accelerate to even 20 mph. This creates a very dangerous highway situation. I believe there are numerous Nissan models with this exact same problem.

"cvt failure" between March 2019 and May 2019 randomly stalling while traveling and when complete stop, this went on for about 1 month. Most noticeable occurrences were when the temperature warm and/or driving for an extended period of time. Vehicle then shuddered/shake when accelerating. RPM level would fluctuate between 4K-5K rmps when attempting to accelerate.would not shift up or downward as designed.would randomly downshift causing a forward jerking.most noticeable jerk/shuddering was between 40-40mph.loss of or limited power when traveling up hill.speed would be limited to 60 mph. On May 19, 2019 reverse would not engage unless the vehicle had not been driven for some time, enough to cool down.neutral would not be present either.there was no differentiation between drive/low/neutral. May 20 brought to Nissan dealer they advised cvt replacement needed. May 21 and May 22 cvt did not engage, vehicle stopped proceeding while on highway. Turned vehicle off for 15 minutes. Turned on and was able to proceed. Still shuddered and jerked when shifting. Started vehicle after parking placed in drive with no movement. Turned off then on placed in drive was able to proceed. Vehicle limited to 40 mph, lost power to cvt unable to move. Stopped for 45 minutes and was able to place into drive. Drove for approximately half mile, lost power while traveling up hill and rolled backwards luckily into a driveway without being struck by other vehicles. Neutral did not exist. Vehicle towed 5/22/19. Complaints made to Nissan 5/23/19. Was advised 5/24 they would only cover 70% although there is a significant problem with their cvts.

Rogue

  • 76,000 miles
While driving my car to work, the transmission has been slipping out of hear. The speed will decrease as I can't accelerate. The RPM's shoot up but the car will go nowhere. It has happened and both high and low speeds but normally after the car engine is warm. Sometimes when it happens, after 10-15 seconds, the gear will go back to drive on it's own and I can continue on my way. Lately, as it's gotten worse, the car will come to a dead stop (as I can't accelerate) and there is nothing that I can do to get it back into gear. I have tried turning the car on and off, putting it in neutral or low and it can take up to 20 minutes before I can get the vehicle driving property. After research, it is a common issue with the vehicle however after taking the car to the dealership I purchased it from twice, they will not fix it. They state it hasn't happened during their test drive and there is nothing they can do and they are releasing the car to me. Even after multiple phone calls and asking them to perform other tests- they won't. they have only run diagnostic machine tests and did a short test drive (even though they lied and told me it was longer). After taking the vehicle home yesterday- it happened to me twice today. This is unsafe to drive.

Since purchasing this vehicle in the summer of 2016, I have had the same issues. The vehicle, after driving it for various lengths of time, slows and appears to lose power. When the accelerator is pressed, the vehicle does nothing. It seems as though the vehicle continues to coast but will not increase in speed. It has slowed down to 45 mph on a busy interstate (with a speed limit of 75 mph) before and will only increase in speed after a decline in elevation (probably due to momentum). The car will not increase speed even if the overdrive is turned off. The accelerator pedal will be pressed to the maximum and the car will not increase in speed. The revolutions per minute (rpms), will not increase either when the accelerator is pressed. All this has occurred on highways where the speed limit is increased and after driving the vehicle for about an hour (sometimes after longer). When I take the car off a highway and come to a complete stop, there is a delay once I try to accelerate again. The vehicle will move slowly after a few seconds of pressing the accelerator and then increases speed very quickly. When driving on a busy interstate, this becomes a safety concern. I cannot accelerate the vehicle when I want to and the vehicle will increase and decrease in speed without my control.

Took my 2014 Nissan Rogue to Nissan dealer, because the car was slipping and losing rpms. Dealer told me that the radiator had failed internally causing transmission issue. They are saying that I need to replace the radiator, hoses some other stuff and the transmission. They estimated it at this time at $6000. I was on my way to work 40 minutes from my house and had to have the car towed back to the dealership. The car only has 75,000 miles on it.

My 2014 Nissan Rogue has 118,000 miles and quit on the us going down the road. Car was whining and had no power. Looks like we are going to need a transmission. I have researched and now discover that is a common problem among Nissan's with a ctv transmission. Shame on Nissan for not fixing this after years of issues!! there should be an extended warranty on all Nissan's with this transmission!

Rogue

  • 40,000 miles
I bought a 2014 Rogue select 33,000 miles from larry H. miller Nissan in Dec 2015. Shortly after my purchase in Jan - I frequently experienced my car engine going into safety mode when on the freeway. Having no power. I took to lhm service dept a total of 7 times. Sorry we are not able to duplicate the problem. Last time I took they had an upgrade and said oh it is your cvt transmission it's fried. At this point my SUV was at 114000 miles. I was told by the service dept I had a 100000 mile warranty, they called back and said it was 60,000. Corporate gave me the run around. Finally agreed to pay 70% I had to pay 30%. it was unfair I had brought this to them a month after purchase and 7more times. Cvt transmission replaced I paid 30% about $1000. I picked up my car they said the battery had died but they charged it. I got to work turned off went to leave 20 min later dead. Called lhm service several times no answer, emailed no response.I bought a new battery. Called Corp they reguj fed me as it was ujnder warranty. Lhm never contacted me back. 3 months later my alternator went out. My mechanic replaced it $300. 2 months ago my a.C. compressor went out. My mechanic replaced it $350. So today my SUV started doing the whining noise and engine going into safe mode. I'm now at 144000 miles and the cvt transmission had 12,000 mile warranty! I drive a lot.I also take great care of my car and do not drive fast, I put most of my miles on the freeway. Driving at 70mph and then car engine going into safe mode with no power on the freeway is dangerous. I asked them to google it others had the same experience I was told they don't google if it isn't showing error codes they wouldn't know what to fix.I still owe about $14000 now need a 2nd get transmission replaced with no warranty"? no help from Nissan" Toyota would never do business this way.

Rogue

  • 60,000 miles
At around 60,000 miles my transmission started acting up. I was driving on a hilly highway and my car lost speed and was having trouble accelerating back up to the speed limit. While pushing the gas pedal the RPM would increase and the car would make a loud noise as if it was trying to accelerate but it would not pick up speed. When I got off at the next exit the car would barely move after stopping at the stop. This has happened to me multiple times since then. It now happens if I drive the car for longer than 25 minutes, less time if I'm using the ac or heat. After the car has been turned off for a few hours it works normally again as long as I'm only going short distances. During the acceleration issues you can smell transmission fluid. It just happened again and I had only gone 20 miles on the highway.

Loss of acceleration. The first time it occurred was from a stop sign. Pressed the gas pedal and the RPM's only went to 3000 with the car only slowly moving forward. The second time it occurred was while driving down the interstate at 70mph. Attempted to accelerate when again the RPM's only went to 3000 and could only maintain current speed. No response from sport button or over drive button. After the car was turned off and restarted it resumed normal operations. Both very dangerous situations if power and acceleration would have been needed.

While traveling 60mph on I43 in milwaukee, the car suddenly lost ability to accelerate. I was able to coast the car off an exit to the side of the road. The car would only go in reverse. I took it to my local mechanic and magically normal forward driving resumed. Diagnostics showed no issues. I was instructed to take drive the vehicle to the dealer (8 miles away) as they might be able to figure out what was wrong as well as possibly honoring the powertrain warranty (60,000 - I'm at 62,000!). on the drive to the dealership I lost ability to accelerate briefly. Luckily, I took the side streets as was able to pull out of traffic. The dealer still has my car and is not finding any issues. They claimed they drove it extensively to see if the issue could be replicated. Although my odometer showed they drove it about 10 miles total. They wanted to return it to me but I insisted they keep it another day and drive it. So, that's where I'm at. If they don't find anything wrong, I'm left with a car that I don't feel safe driving with my wife or two kids (age 6 and 8). We're headed on vacation this weekend (180 miles away) and I'm going to have to rent a car.

I have noticed that my 2014 Nissan Rogue loses power after driving long distrances. This puts my family in danger. I have the gas all the way to the floor with no response. Then it will all of sudden just take off. It seems to happen when I am on the hwy going around 75. This is happening more and more often.

Rogue

  • 99,000 miles
We were traveling on interstate I-20 in Georgia at approx 75mph when suddenly the car just lost all forward momentum. My husband attempted to give the car more gas, but with the pedal all the way to the floor, he narrowly manged to get us across the lanes of traffic to the shoulder of the road without being hit. We were almost rear ended several times, and attempting to cross the lanes of the highway was extremely dangerous. Once on the side of the road, he checked to see if there was a visible or noticeable reason the car acted this way and checked all fluids- including the transmission fluid. After checking everything he could, we resumed travel, with the car being a bit sluggish then resuming travel as normal. We looked online to see if others had this problem, and read that older Nissan had a replacement recall on the transmissions- but not the newer one. This even has terrified me, our daughter and my husband with how dangerous a situation we were put in due to the defect of the transmission.
