3 times now my 2008 Nissan Rogue has had acceleration problems on the highway. It happened the 1st time on Aug. 20, 2011 then again on Sept. 5, 2011. Both times I was driving on the highway, at 60-65mph when suddenly, the car would not go over 40mph even when the gas pedel was floored. I have read online many people are having this same issue with the cvt transmission. I feel this car is unsafe-as you can not move the car up to speed to get it out of the way of on coming traffic. I have an appointment with the Nissan dealer on Sept. 10-but they are telling me they have not heard of this problem.

The contact owns a 2008 Nissan Rogue. While driving approximately 60 mph the vehicle suddenly decelerated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing and the technician stated the transmission had to be replaced. After the vehicle was repaired the failure occurred a second time. The vehicle was not repaired. The VIN was unavailable. The approximate failure mileage was 30,000.

I have a 2008 Nissan Rogue (all wheel drive). It has a loud noise (grinding/clunking) sound at slow speed. I'm told by the dealer that they have another one that is doing the same and they don't have an answer. Nissan states that they are looking into it, don't know what it is, but that the vehicle is safe to drive..... if they don't know what it is how can they say that it's safe to drive? to me it sounds like it's either the transmission or transfer case.

I have a transmission rattle/clanking noise which is fairly constant in the car, except at high acceleration. I have complained numerous times to Nissan about the problem, but Nissan is currently considering this sound normal. It has been getting worse, and I am concerned about a transmission failure, which could cause an accident.
