2008 Nissan Rogue

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED TO 40 MPH AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE HORN SEIZED, AND THE AIR BAG, EVAP, AND CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DESTINATION NISSAN (770 CENTRAL AVE, ALBANY, NY 12206, 518-438-8461), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES AND DENIED THE CLAIM FOR THE TRANSMISSION. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 125,000.

NISSAN ROGUE 2008 WAS BOUGHT IN 2008 SINCE BEGINNING DURING UPHILL DRIVE IN SUMMER CAR STARTS STALLING ON FREEWAY. THIS PROMPTED NISSAN TO CHANGE CVT ON 10/15/2013 AND AGAIN ON 10/10/15. IT LOOKS LIKE CVT IS GETTING HEATED WITH NO COOLING SUPPORT. ON A HIGHWAY , VEHICLE STARTS LOOSING POWER AND PUTTING OCCUPANT OF THE VEHICLE IN DANGER.

TAKATA RECALL, THE NISSAN I PURCHASED FROM FUCCILLO NISSAN IN LATHAM, NEW YORK, WAS DEFECTIVE WITH EVERY ISSUE, HOWEVER NISSAN REFUSE TO HONOR ANY RECALLS. THEIR MOST RECENT EXTENDED WARRANTY, INDICATES A REPLACEMENT OF THE EVAP CANISTER AND TUBING, HOWEVER UPON ARRIVING AT THE NISSAN DEALER HE TOLD E MY CAR WAS OLD AND IT ONLY COVERS THE TUBE. THE NISSAN MANUFACTURER IS A JOKE, I DEALT WITH A WOMAN WHO LITERALLY FAILED TO INFORM ME THAT NISSAN NEVER REPORTED THAT I WAS THE NEW OWNER OF THE CAR. HENCE LAST YEAR MY CAR LITERALLY ROLLED BACKWARDS WHILE I ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE UP HILL, RIGHT INTO TRAFFIC , POTENTIAL TO BE A DEADLY ACCIDENT , NOTING THE VARIETY OF COMPLAINTS I BELIEVE THAT THEIR WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DIE. FUCILLO NISSAN REFUSED TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION, INSTEAD THE SEALED IT . TWO WEEKS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY, AND OF COURSE THEY REFUSED TO FIX IT TRYING TO EXPLAIN, HOW A CVT TRANSMISSION WORKS, AND THEN HE WENT AS FAR AS SAYING I HAVE TO GET USED TO IT. NISSAN IS A JOKE AND AS LONG AS THEY COULD GET AWAY WITH SELLING DEFECTIVE CARS AND NOT HONORING THEIR VERY OWN RECALLS THEY WILL, BILLY FUCILLO NEEDS HIS LICENCE SNATCHED, THEIR A BUNCH OF CROOKS, WHOM ARE DANGEROUS TO THE PUBLIC.

DRIVING BACK FROM SEATTLE AREA, CAR WAS ON HWY 2 IN WASHINGTON STATE, WHEN IT STOPPED FORWARD MOVEMENT. ENGINE STILL RUNNING, BUT NO FORWARD MOVEMENT, AND FLUID AND SMOKE COMMIMG OUT OF REAR END. BARELY GOT TO A SAFE SPOT AND PULLED OVER. CALLED INSURANCE CO. FOR TOW. HAD HOURS OF TRYING TO GET A TOW AFTER HOURS. TOOK CAR (ON A CAR CARRIER ) TO MY MECHANIC. HE DIAGNOSES IT AS TRANSMISSION. HE STATES IT NEEDS A WHOLE NEW TRANSMISSION. HAVE ONLY 117953 MILES ON IT. MAYBE STILL UNDER NISSAN WARRENTY...MAYBE.

I GOT THIS CAR FROM MY DAUGHTER IN MAY. THIS PROBLEM STARTED IN JUNE, STOPPED FOR A WHILE & NOW IN WINTER (JANUARY) IT CAME BACK & IS GETTING WORSE TO THE POINT I WON'T DRIVE ON FREEWAY ANYMORE. DECELERATES AT FREEWAY SPEEDS COMBINED WITH JERKING MOTION. ALSO DOES NOT ALWAYS ACCELERATE (DOGS OUT) WHILE PRESSING ON GAS FROM COMPLETE STOP OR TRYING TO ACCELERATE IN SLOW TRAFFIC CAUSING CARS BEHIND TO SLAM ON BRAKES.

ROAR AND GRINDING NOISE UNDER CAR BELIEVE TO BE TRANSMISSION / TRANSFER CASE OR BOTH. DRIVE GOOD SHIFTS GOOD RUNS GOOD. BELIEVE IF SOMETHING LOCKS UP IN THIS , IT COULD CAUSE A ACCIDENT BY COMING APART. CHECKING IT OUT FOUND LOTS OF OTHER WITH SAME PROBLEM. IF THEY KNOW OF THE DESIGN PROBLEM LOOK LIKE THEY COULD CORRECT OR REPLACE BAD PARTS. LOOK LIKE NISSAN DID NOT CARE ABOUT IT OR IF IT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDEND AND PUT OUT A BAD DESIGN ANYWAY. WITH ALL THE COMPLAINS ON THE WEB, LOOKS LIKE NISSAN JUST PUSHING IT TO THE BACK AND WAITING ON TIME TO GO BY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND HALF. JUST THINK IT WRONG!
