I have only had my used. Nissan Rogue for about a year and a half. I always keep up with the maintenance. I first noticed the problem as I was driving from dallas, tx up to Oklahoma city, ok. About one hour into the drive up to Oklahoma, the speed began to drop without any notice, and for no apparent reason. The vihechle was not over heating, and I had originally set the cruise control at about 70 mph. As cars were passing by, it slowly began to decrease it's acceleration. No matter how much I stepped on the gas it would not go up in speed. I was not even going up hill at this point. The speed limit must have been at about 70 mph and my Rogue's speed kept decreasing and other cars, and 18-wheelers kept passing us. To the point where it was only going 35 mph. I had to stop and pull over for about 20 minutes and then it began working normal. I first thought it may have been a one time thing. Now after a few trips it has became a real problem. I am going to have it checked out by Nissan. Today on my way to work (about a 40 min. Drive from home) as I got off the freeway I came to a full stop at a red light, once the light turned green my car was still on but it would not accelerate at all for at least 20 seconds. I had to turn my emergency lights on to let the cars behind me pass me. When I first purchased my used Rogue I made a drive from dallas tx, to new orleans, la. And I had no problems. Not even a year later I have problems with acceleration, and just two days ago I heard aa strange rattling noise. I finally have some time off tomorrow and I am going to get some answers and solve this problem. Nissan needs to get this fixed, this is an extremely dangerous problem!

I was driving on the freeway on my way home from work. The car started to decelerate from about 68 mph down to 40 mph. I was pressing the pedal down more and more to try and accelerate but the car would not accelerate. It just kept going slower and slower as the minutes passed by. Soon I was driving slower than the big semi's and I had to pull to the last lane (slowest lane) because I could not keep up with the regular flowing traffic. This is not the first time it happens to me. I had this problem last year and Nissan had to replace the transmission. Now with a new transmission and 30,000 miles into it, the same thing is beginning to happen. I truly believe the cvt transmissions in Nissan are defective and unreliable. I cannot drive my car for 2 hours before this problem begins. Everything on the panel indicates that the car is performing fine but then it goes into this "auto shut off" mode and the car stops performing correctly.
