Sept 2017 I paid sandy sansing Nissan $853 to replace my defective cvt jatco transmission that failed. Now January 28, 2018 with less than 6000 miles on new transmission I was driving interstate 70 mph posted speed in heavy rain when the car began to go up in rpms revving before it quickly began to lose speed. Same thing as before. The roads were slick due to 24 hours of rainfall placing myself in a deadly situation. I'm not willing to risk my life or the life of my children and husband for a known defect Nissan has been aware of, and sued for numerous models already and yet still installing defective cvt transmissions with only a 12,000 mile or 12 month warranty on their replacement models which states they know they are trash and still deceive their customers. Nissan owners should be aware of the death traps they are driving and Nissan should be held liable for their defective products they continue to sell to consumers without disclosing the potential loss of life that could occur.

This happens every time I drive more than 50 miles at a time. If I am driving for a long time and slow down my car does not accelerate anymore. I ha E to shut my car off for at least 5 min. Before I can start driving again. Something is wrong with the power train. It struggles to keep up and almost sounds like the car is going to die. I have taken it to Nissan dealerships 3 times before my extended warrently was up and paid $100 every time they told me there was nothing wrong after the hook it up to the computer.

I was traveling to sacramento from los angeles in Oct. 2016. After driving for about 4 hours my car started to lose speed. I pushed the pedal all the way to the floor and I could not accelerate any faster. I pulled off the freeway and waited for a little while and then got back on the road and then warning light came on and never went off. On the way home I was headed up the grapevine (I-5 South) and I lost speed again and pulled over to the truck lane going uphill and my speed dropped as low as 20 mph and that was with me pushing the pedal all the way to the floor. I had several semi-trucks behind me and could not change lanes without possibly causing an accident. I was very scared and once I made it up the hill I was able to gain a little speed going downhill and continued home. II took my car to a mechanic and he told me that it was an issue w/my transmission. I called Nissan and since I was barely over my warranty I was told that I would have to pay for my transmission myself and I was very upset as my car had just over 60,000. I started researching my issue and discovered this was a common, known problem with Nissan and Rogue's in particular. This is very dangerous and I hope they do something before someone loses their life. Having your speed drop so dramatically on a busy interstate w/several semi-trucks is very frightening. Since then I have not driven my car on trips over 2 hours away because I don't feel safe. I had this same type of problem months before on a trip to las vegas but just let it go because no warning light came on and I thought it was a fluke. I was completely shocked to see that Nissan knows of this problem w/the transmission and has done nothing to fix it. I now have a rattling noise coming from my car and I'm afraid to see what that is going to cost me. I only drive to/from work and work less than 5 miles from my home. Ugh!!

I was on the thruway/highway and my rpms got higher and higher, even though my cruise control was on. Engine was revving up, and suddenly lost power to the car, even though the gas pedal was to the ground. Thankfully, traffic was slow and I was lucky. I pulled over and called geico for a tow truck.

- Horizon City, TX, USA

The contact owns a 2011 Nissan Rogue. While traveling highway speeds, the accelerator pedal did not respond once depressed. The failure occurred without warning. The dealer and manufacturer were not contacted. The VIN was invalid. The failure mileage was approximately 63,000.

- San Diego, CA, USA

I began to drive this 2011 Nissan Rogue and noticed when stopped at a red light, when it turned green I stepped on the gas accelerator and the vehicle did not respond. This has happened over and over again. While on the highway driving a speed of 70 miles my car began to loose power, and speed. It went as low as 40 miles and I almost had an accident as a result. I was unable to maintain highway speed. No warning lights or indicators ever came on. Neither with the first issue, or the second issue. I didn't know what was happening. I was driving with my 6 yr old who has special needs the first time. I bought a new battery thinking that would help. Then it happened again, while driving with my two boys and two grandson's in the car. I again lost power and could not accelerate properly on the highway. Cars were flying by me, and I felt helpless as this vehicle wouldn't maintain a proper hi-way speed. Very debilitating. Scary when you have no control over your vehicle speed, and can't accelerate. Nissan states there's a problem with the cvt. They have agreed to replace my transmission as it has also failed. But refuse to pay for the work"? please help, as I am sure I am not the only person going through this right now. So if they replace the transmission who's to say it wont happen again??"

While driving long distances at high speeds (75-80mph) the car suddenly stopped accelerating even with gas pedal floored. The car automatically decelerated to 50 mph and maxed out at 60 mph. We pulled the car over and checked all fluids, which proved normal. We turned the car off to let it cool for a few minutes. Once the car was turned back on it drove normally for about an hour and then the problem occurred again. This pattern continued for the entire 7 hour road trip. Once we took the car into a Nissan shop, we were told that nothing was found during diagnostic testing. We were also told this was a reoccurring problem with Nissan Rogues due to overheating of transmission/transmission fluid. It was explained to us that Nissan has not made a recall on this, but has only provided warranties for transmission issues on 2008-2010 models. Unfortunately mine is a 2011. This put my family in very dangerous situations as we were on interstates with cars and semi trucks traveling at very high velocities. Semi trucks were honking and flashing lights at us out of anger as it put them in danger as well. This could have easily caused a road rage incident.

A couple of times while driving the car stop suddenly without any warning and the engine slowly died. This is quite worrying because I am not sure how I would cope on a busy interstate road.

My 2011 Nissan Rogue has experienced acceleration problems after driving it on the highway for about 70 miles. If I have to brake on the highway, then it takes my car a long time to accelerate back up(RPM's are high) and sometimes cannot go above 50 mph as cars are whizzing by me. Once this issue starts, it continues, even if I am at a lower speed or from a stopping position. It is very dangerous! I have seen other complaints on the internet about the same problem. I contacted my local dealership and said that Nissan is adding a cooler kit to the transmission because they think the problem is from the transmission overheating. They want anywhere from $800-1,200 to install the cooling kit. Why should the consumer have to pay for this if Nissan is having to add a kit to cool down the transmission? obviously, it's a default in the transmission and has happened repeatedly on lots of vehicles. According to a website, Nissan has an extended cvt warranty for 2003-2010 Nissan Rogues, but nothing after that even though newer cars (2014) are experiencing the same problem. Do people have to die first before they do a recall? it is extremely dangerous and hard to recreate at the service department because you have to get the transmission warm and that usually takes a longer distance to drive. Also, there are no warning lights that come on to indicate a problem so this malfunction just catches you by surprise! I hope NHTSA gets involved and tells Nissan to fix this problem on their dime, not ours. I will never buy a Nissan again and will be sure to warn my friends of this deadly situation.

- Richardson, TX, USA

The car stalls, won't accelerate, and ramps RPM when slowing down. The transmission was replaced by Nissan with an extended warranty at 52K miles, and now needs replacing again. The dealer states the transmission has overheated 91 times on this vehicle and also needs a transcooler added. I notice 141 complaints on this site for the same problem, but no investigation. The '08, '09, '10 models have all had their warranties extended. This is a serious safety hazard on a highway when vehicle will not accelerate. Someone is going to be hit from behind, as the driver has no way to keep a steady acceleration, or slow the RPM unless the car is turned off and restarted. Nissan should replace all transmissions in the Rogue.

- Germantown, TN, USA

I was at the stop sign attempting to make a right turn from a bank parking lot, when the car started to accelerate to the left with great speed towards a major highway just a few feet away. I turned my wheel to the left so to avoid getting on the highway and be hit by traffic. My car went over the metal fence, then over a hill and ended up on top of another set of new cars at the Nissan dealership. Both side airbags deployed. The car is totaled. The car totally lost control....at this time I do not have pictures or a police report available.

- Springfield, NJ, USA

After being on the highway for about an hour, the car will no longer accelerate. It will hold a constant speed but will not increase. If speed drops it will not increase beyond the current speed. Cruise control kicks off. No check engine light or over heating. Mechanic could not diagnose.

- Tampa, FL, USA

Car will stop accelerating after driving for 45-60 minutes. Loud whining noises constantly. Nissan has replaced the alternator and the serpentine belt and it still happens. I have taken the car back more than 8 times and they will not fix it!! please help! I've almost been hit more than 5 times with my two children in the car because of these issues.

- Douglasville, GA, USA

Since purchasing my 201 Rogue in 2012, with 4,000 miles on it, whenever driving for more than 35-40 minutes, have total loss of acceleration. Happens on highway, durning driving around town and from a complete stop. Occurs no matter the time of year or the weather conditions. Researched and found on line this happens to multitudes of owners of Nissan 4cyl vehicles with cvt. No fix has been noted, just waiting for a serious accident or death, before Nissan or government does anything. Can not afford to just go buy another vehicle. Will not ever buy another Nissan 4cyl with the cvt. Disappointed, concerned and hoping I am not the fatality,

The contact owns a 2011 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled several times and failed to accelerate upon coming to a stop. The vehicle was to be inspected by a dealer and a mechanic. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 75,000.

- Doylestown, PA, USA

While driving at 65 mph on the New Jersey turnpike, the car suddenly dropped in acceleration to 40mph. Pressing on the gas caused the RPM to rev, however no change in speed occurred. Upon inquiring about this issue, I came to find out that this is a common problem with Nissan's cvt components that the company is aware of, however no recall has been issued. Extreme weather conditions, such as heat waves, using the car for a prolonged period of time, and traveling uphill have been documented to trigger the loss of acceleration. This common flaw found with Nissan cars is highly dangerous and will inevitably result in the loss of life.

- Bayonne, NJ, USA

When driving on the highway with cruise on all of the sudden the cruise cuts off and the car loses acceleration. I preszed the gass pedal and rpms went up but vehicle still did not accelerate. I was unable to get the vehicle to go over 40 mph. I was traveling with my four children and very lucky that there was T anyone behind me so inwas able to pull over to the shoulder.

- San Angelo, TX, USA
