2010 Nissan Rogue

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH OVER SMOOTH OR FLAT ROAD SURFACES, THE VEHICLE FELT AS IF IT WERE ON AN INCLINE. THE VEHICLE DECELERATED TO 20 MPH. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS TIMES. ON ONE OCCASION, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED AND THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE VEHICLE TO THE LEFT LANE. THE CONTACT HAD TO PLACE THE GEAR INTO REVERSE AND REVERSE THE VEHICLE IN ORDER TO SHIFT INTO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE CONTACT CONSULTED A SECOND INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED DURING THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MODERN NISSAN OF LAKE NORMAN (18615 STATESVILLE RD, CORNELIUS, NC 28031) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,000.

I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM BECAUSE THERE WERE WINNING NOISES COMING FROM THE LEFT SIDE IN THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION COMPARTMENT. IN ADDITION TO CUT AND UNSEALED WIRES UNDER THE DASH AND IN THE FUSE BOX, AS WELL AS A STUCK CALIPER (THAT THEY REPLACED FOR MY CONVENIENCE ACCORDING TO THE SERVICE MANAGER). THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE DEALER FOR A TOTAL OF 2 WEEKS IN THE 1 MONTH I HAVE OWN THE CAR AND THEY HAVE ONLY FIXED THE CALIPER. MY CONCERN WITH THE CUT AND UNSEALED WIRES IS THAT LIGHTS (PARKING BRAKE AND BATTERY) IN THE DASH TURN ON WHILE I AM DRIVING AND IT HAS TURNED OFF ON ME WHEN COMING TO A STOP. IT HAPPENED TO MY WIFE (WITH MY NEWBORN IN THE CAR) WHEN SHE WAS DRIVING THE CAR IN THE HIGHWAY, SHE CAME TO A STOP BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC AND THE CAR TURNED OFF ON HER CREATING AN UNSAFE ENVIRONMENT FOR BOTH MY NEWBORN AND CHILD. THE RESPONSE FROM THE DEALER WAS "WE ARE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE, THE COMPUTER DOESN'T SHOW ANY CODES" YET IT HAPPENS TO ME FREQUENTLY.

DRIVING ON I-76 ON CRUISE CONTROL AT 75 MPH WHEN VEHICLE STARTS TO RUN RPMS IN EXCESS OF 4K WHILE LOSING ACCELERATION. PULL OVER AND TURN OFF VEHICLE. CHECK UNDER THE HOOD, SLIGHT BURNING SMELL. WAIT ABOUT TWENTY MINUTES, TURN VEHICLE ON, WON'T ACCELERATE AT ALL. WAIT SOME MORE, DRIVES FOR A LITTLE WHILE, THEN HIGH ACCELERATION WITH LOSS OF SPEED AGAIN, THIS TIME NEVER GOING OVER 60 MPH. I'M LUCKY I WAS NOT REAR ENDED ON THE INTERSTATE AND KILLED WITH MY TWO YEAR OLD SON.

AFTER DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY WITH MY NISSAN ROUGE 2010, WITH CONTINUOUS SPEED OF 55 TO 60 MPH FOR ABOUT HALF HOUR, AND THEN CAME TO A FULL STOP, DUE TO TRAFFIC CONGESTIONS, THE CAR WON'T RUN OR ACCELARATE, EVEN IF I PUSH THE (GAS) PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I HAVE TO TURN OFF, AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE TO GET IT GOING AGAIN. IT HAPPENED MANY TIMES DURING WARM OR HOT WEATHER. IN WINTER, IT SEEMS TO BE FINE. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM, BUT THEY CHARGED ME, EVEN THEY HAVE NOT FOUND OR FIX ANY ISSUES.

2010 NISSAN ROGUE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY I-57 NORTHBOUND AROUND 159TH DOING THE SPEED LIMIT OF 60 THE CONJURING START SLOWING DOWN I PULLED OVER ON THE SHOULDER AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND IT WOULD START UP IT WOULDN'T SAY ANYTHING HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A MECHANIC SATURDAY MORNING MONDAY THEY TOLD ME THE TRANCE WISCONSIN CVT TRANS THE CAR IS HAS 84000 MILES 2010 EXCELLENT CONDITION NO MAJOR ISSUES AND THEY WON'T HONOR THE WARRANTY ON THE CAR

WHEN THE CVT TRANSMISSION GETS HOT THE POWER FROM ENGINE TO TRANSMISSION BEGINS TO REDUCE. THIS SAFETY FEATURE LEADS TO MASSIVE FUEL CONSUMPTION AS WELL AS COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS CAUSED MYSELF TO BE STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THIS "SAFETY FEATURE" DIDN'T START DOING THIS UNTIL 50 MILES PAST THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. AT FIRST IT WOULD TAKE HOURS OF DRIVING BEFORE THIS WOULD HAPPEN AND IT SEEMS LIKE EACH TIME IT HAPPENED IT TOOK LESS AND LESS DRIVING TIME BEFORE IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN. CURRENTLY MY ROGUE IS AROUND 150K MILES AND I CAN'T GO MORE THAN 20 MILES BEFORE IT HAPPENS. I TOOK THE ROGUE INTO SHOPS FOR A FULL TUNE-UP EVERY30K MILES TRYING TO BE SURE IT LAST FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE, SO I KNOW IT ISN'T AN ISSUE OF NEGLECT. I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLINE TRYING TO FIND A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM AND ALL I HAVE FOUND ARE THOUSANDS OF OTHER OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. SOME OWNERS HAVE HAD THE PROBLEM BEGIN AS EARLY AS THE 10K MARK. SINCE THE INTRODUCTION OF THE CVT TRANSMISSION EVERY VEHICLE IT IS USED IN HAS THIS PROBLEM. NISSAN NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM BEFORE IT CAUSES A DEATH FROM PURE NEGLECT ON THEIR PART. I'VE OWNED 4 NISSAN VEHICLES AND LOVED THEM ALL BUT HIS IS THE FIRST ONE I HAD THAT DIDN'T MAKE IT PAST 100K MILES BEFORE HAVING A MAJOR ISSUE.
