2010 Nissan Rogue

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ACCELERATION POWER. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHERE THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,500.

I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE STOP LIGHT SWITCH IN THE COMPUTERIZED ENGINE OF MY ROGUE. THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE IN A NORMAL TIME FRAME FROM 0-15 MILES PER HOUR, 6-7 SECONDS TO RESPOND. IT WOULD NOT MAINTAIN SPEEDS OVER 60 MILES AN HOUR, SLOWING DOWN WITHOUT ANY CONTROL OVER IT. IT WOULD NOT RESPOND PROPERLY WHEN I PUSHED THE ACCELERATOR. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS AS I IMPEDED TRAFFIC AND COULD NOT FUNCTION AS NEEDED IN HIGH TRAFFIC AND HIGHWAY SETTINGS. AS I RESEARCH, I SEE THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON COMPLAINT FOR SEVERAL YEARS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE THAT DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO DECELERATE AND THE ENGINE RPMS WOULD NOT EXCEED 3000. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS ABNORMALLY DEPRESSED TO THE FLOORBOARD; HOWEVER THERE WAS AN EXTREMELY SLOW RESPONSE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS IN OPERATION FOR OVER TWO HOURS. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 61,000.

DRIVING FROM DENVER TO SUMMIT COUNTY UP 1-70 THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT GO ABOVE 3000 RPM DURING CLIMBING CAUSING RAPID SLOWING ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY. IT HAS NOW HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND EVERY TIME SINCE I'VE DRIVEN UP THERE SINCE MAY. TWICE I'VE HAD IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO CLAIMED IT WAS DUE TO HIGH TRANSMISSION FLUID (WHICH HAD NOT BEEN CHANGED SINCE PURCHASE). IT HAS BEEN LOWERED TWICE. THE LAST TIME THIS OCCURRED IT WAS SO BAD THAT I PULLED OFF AT AN EXIT FOR FEAR OF SAFETY. I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND LET IT REST FOR A FEW MINUTES. STARTED IT BACK UP AND ATTEMPTED TO DO A U-TURN. WITH THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR THE VEHICLE ONLY INCHED ALONG LEAVING ME STRANDED ACROSS THE ROAD AND VULNERABLE TO A CRASH IF ANOTHER VEHICLE HAD COME ALONG. *TR

I WAS DRIVING WHEN I SUDDENLY NOTICED THAT THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY THEN THE ENGINE SPLUTTERED AND THE VEHICLE SLOWED AND I HAD TO TURN ON THE HAZARD LIGHTS TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT. I PARKED ON THE ROADSIDE WHEN ABLE TO AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES, I RESTARTED THE ENGINE AND REGAINED SPEED BUT THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS NOT RESPONSIVE HOWEVER WITHIN A FEW MINUTES THE ENGINE SPLUTTERED AGAIN AND HAD TO PARK AND CALLED FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. THE DIAGNOSIS FROM NISSAN WAS THAT THE RADIATOR HAD A "HOLE" IN IT AND WARRANTY DID NOT COVER AS THE MILEAGE HAD EXCEEDED 36,000. I WAS PUZZLED WHY THE RADIATOR OF A RELATIVELY NEW CAR WITHOUT ANY FOREWARNING WOULD DEVELOP THIS KIND OF PROBLEM AND I WAS NOT PREPARED TO PAY THE HIGH REPAIR COST, WHICH CONVINCED THERE MAY BE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE RADIATOR FROM THE MANUFACTURER.

THE FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM IS NOT ACCURATE ALL THE TIME IT IS I BELIEVE DEFECTIVE AND NISSAN RECALLED ON IT, BUT WHEN I TOOK MY CAR OVER THEY SAID IT WAS NOT AFFECTED, ALTHOUGH I HAD A PROBLEM A THE TIME IT WASN'T THIS BAD... THIS DEFECTIVE FUEL GAUGE STILL SHOWS A FULL TANK OF GAS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE PEOPLE MAY WELL RUN OUT OF GAS ON THE ROAD, IMAGINE BEING OUT OF FUEL AND STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. *TR

2010 ROGUE HAS REPEATED PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION. SPECIFICALLY FROM A STOPPED POSITION. AND WHEN ON A HILL, IF YOU ARE STOPPED, IT WON'T ACCELERATE AT ALL, EVEN WHEN PUSHING DRIVING PEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR. ON TOP OF THIS, IT NOW WILL NOT HOLD A CRUISE WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON THE INTERSTATE. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN ATTEMPTING TO TURN LEFT FROM A STOPPED POSITION WITHOUT A GREEN ARROW. THIS IS APPARENTLY, ACCORDING TO COMPLAINTS, A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, AND THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. HAVE CALLED DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES TO SCHEDULE SERVICE AND TELL THEM ABOUT THIS MAJOR PROBLEM ONLY TO BE TOLD I WOULD GET A CALL BACK WITH NO CALL-BACK. AM SHOWING UP TOMORROW WITH MY CAR INSISTING ON AN ANSWER. *TR
