2012 Nissan Rogue

MY 2012 NISSAN ROGUE SV THAT I PURCHASED 16 MONTHS AGO HAS HAD THE SAME REOCCURRING PROBLEM WHERE YOU'LL BE DRIVING AND THE ACCELERATOR WILL GET REAL HARD AND DROP DOWN TO 20 MILES AN HOUR IT'S BEEN IN THE SHOP SEVEN TIMES HAD SEVERAL PARTS REPLACED THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO HAVE NO REOCCURRENCE THEME IT'S HARD TO FIGURE OUT WHY AND WHEN IT DOES IT WE'VE GONE AS LONG AS SIX MONTHS AND 4000 MILES WITHOUT ISSUE OR THREE TIMES IN THE SAME WEEK THE PROBLEM IS IT'S ALMOST CAUSED 4 BAD ACCIDENTS WE ARE VERY LUCKY MY WIFE IS SCARED TO DRIVE IT I WOULD DO ANYTHING TO GET IT FIXED BUT WE'VE TRIED AND TRIED AND TRIED AND IT JUST DOESN'T SEEM ANYBODY CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT AS MUCH AS I DON'T WANT TO PUT IT ON THE ROAD AGAIN WE DON'T HAVE THE MEANS TO JUST WALK AWAY, THE CAR HAS 78K MILES AND RUNS GREAT EXCEPT FOR THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE

AFTER AN 1.5 HOURS ON AN INTERSTATE (NON-STOP DRIVING) THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO DECELERATE SPEED. WITH NO LIGHT INDICATOR OR EXPLANATION. THE ACCELERATOR GAUGE IS GOING UP AND DOWN REALLY QUICKLY, LIKE THE CAR IS OUT OF SYNC WITH THE SPEED. NO INDICATOR LIGHT OR ANYTHING TURNS ON. I WILL BE GOING AT A SPEED OF 75 OR 80 AND WITHOUT WARNING, IT DECREASES IN SPEED. I CAN PUT THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND IT STILL CONTINUES TO SLOW DOWN. THERE IS NO OVERHEATING FUMES OR SMELL AT ALL. I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND WAIT UNTIL THE ENGINE COOLS DOWN BEFORE RETURNING ONTO THE HIGHWAY. THIS HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME IN 2017 (PROBABLY 70,000 MILES) WHEN I TOOK A ROAD TRIP AND I THOUGH IT WAS A ONE TIME OCCURRENCE. UNFORTUNATELY, IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AFTERWARDS, BUT ALWAYS AFTER I'VE BEEN ON THE ROAD FOR MORE THAN AN HOUR. I'VE TAKEN IT IN TO BE SERVICED TWICE, THE WATER PUMPS WERE REPLACED, BUT STILL I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT HAPPENED SEPTEMBER 2020. I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS ISSUE UNTIL I LOOKED ONLINE AND SAW OTHERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE EXACT SAME THING. I JUST TRY NOT TO TAKE LONG ROAD TRIPS. DAY TO DAY DRIVING IS NOT AN ISSUES.

I HAVE A 2012 NISSAN ROGUE TWO WEEKS AFTER BUYING THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON ,IT WAS SHOWING AIR MASS FLOW SENSOR ON A CODE READER AND WAS REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES NOT FIXING THE PROBLEM TODAY 8 YEARS LATER THE ENGINE LIGHT STILL ON, SOMETIMES IT JUST SHUTS OFF FOR A COUPLE DAYS ON ITS OWN THEN IT COMES RIGHT UP,NOE SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING THE CAR LOOSES SPEED AND IT STARTS TO SHAKE BACK AND FORTH AND THE TRACTION LIGHT COMES ON, THIS IS A SERIOUS ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN,I HAVE TO SAFELY PARK THE CAR SHUT IT OFF WAIT ABOUT 2 MINUTES AND START THE CAR AGAIN FOR THE TRACTION LIGHT TO COME OFF AND DRIVE NORMAL AGAIN,

IN NOVEMBER 2017, WHILE DRIVING IN ONE OF THE PASSING LANES ON QEW DRIVING FROM BUFFALO, NY TO TORONTO, CANADA, AT APPX 70 MPH, THE CAR STARTED LOSING POWER AND SPEED. THE RPM STARTED REVVING ALOT BUT THE CAR SPEED DECREASED RAPIDLY. THE CARS BEHIND ME ALMOST REAR ENDED ME AT THIS SPEED. I WAS ON A 4 LANE THRUWAY AND IT WAS DIFFICULT TO PULL TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD TO THE SHOULDER BECAUSE ALL OF THE CARS WERE SPEEDING AROUND ME. QUITE FRANKLY, IT WAS A TERRIFYING SITUATION TO BE IN AS SEMI TRUCKS AND OTHER CARS GOING 70 - 80+ MPH WERE SPEEDING UP BEHIND YOU AS YOUR VEHICLE LOST POWER. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND LET THE CAR REST FOR ABOUT 1/2 HOUR THEN STARTED TO DRIVE AGAIN. I DROVE THE NEXT 30 MILES AT APPX 35-40 MPH WITH MY 4 WAY FLASHERS ON. THE CAR DID EVENTUALLY GET BACK TO SPEED AND SEEM TO DRIVE NORMAL. MILEAGE WAS APPX 125,000- 130,000. THIS HAPPENED A SECOND TIME IN MARCH 2019. I DROVE APPX 65 MILES ON COUNTRY ROADS IN A RURAL AREA TO PICK UP MY ELDERLY MOTHER TO TAKE HER TO THE HOSPITAL. THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER. THE RPM'S WERE GOING CRAZY, THE CAR LOST POWER. AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES, THE CAR EVENTUALLY GOT BACK TO SPEED AGAIN. I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE HER TO THE HOSPITAL IN MY CAR AND FORTUNATELY A NEIGHBOR LET ME USE THEIR CAR TO TRANSPORT MY MOM TO THE HOSPITAL. THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO DRIVE MY CAR THE 75 MILES BACK HOME AND IT DROVE OKAY BUT I WAS VERY WORRIED I WOULD NOT MAKE IT HOME. MILEAGE WAS APPX 145,000. THIS HAPPENED A 3RD TIME AUGUST OF 2019 WHILE TRAVELING WB ON THE NYS I-90 THRUWAY. AGAIN, I WAS IN THE PASSING LANE TRAVELING ABOUT 70 MPH WHEN THE RPM'S STARTED GOING CRAZY AND THE CAR LOST POWER. THIS TIME A SEMI TRUCK WAS BEHIND ME AND QUICKLY CLOSING IN ON MY CAR. AGAIN, IT WAS TOUGH TO GET TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD TO GET OUT OF FAST MOVING TRAFFIC. MILEAGE APPX 160,000.

I'M JUST SO UPSET WITH THIS VEHICLE. WHEN YOU DRIVE FOR ABOUT AN HOUR THE TRUCK WON'T GO PAST 70. IT STARTS TO SLOW DOWN AND YOU CAN'T GET ANY SPEED. I WAS GOING TO WV AND IT STARTED MESSING UP I COULDN'T EVEN PULL THE HILL. IT WOULD JUST GO SO SLOW, COULDN'T GET IN ANOTHER LANE. IT WAS SO SCARY THOUGHT I WAS GONNA GET HIT. THE CAR ALWAYS HAS AN WHINNING NOISE WHEN YOUR ON THE ROAD OVER 30 MINUTES. YOU HAVE TO CUT THE TRUCK OFF, LET IT SIT A WHILE TO GET THE SPEED TO COME BACK UP. THE NEXT DAY I WAS ON MY WAY TO THE BEACH AND IT WOULD NOT GO PAST 20MPH. MASH THE GAS TO THE FLOOR AND IT WOULD JUST MAKE NOISE. OTHER THAN THAT I LIKE THE TRUCK. EVERY TIME I TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY ARE TRYING TO CHARGE ME ALMOST 1,000 DOLLARS FOR SOMETHING THAT THEY KNEW ABOUT BEFORE THEY SOLD THESE CARS TO THE CONSUMERS. NISSAN NEED TO RECALL THESE CARS , THEY ARE VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY IF YOUR ON THE HIGHWAY WITH BABIES IN THE CAR.

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE BETWEEN 70-80MPH MY VEHICLE DROPPED TO 60MPH AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PAST 60MPH, THEN WHEN PULLING OFF AN EXIT SCARED IT WOULDN'T GO PAST 20MPH. THIS PUT MY SON AND I'S SAFETY AT SERIOUS RISK WITH HAVING NO CONTROL OVER ACCELERATION. I GOT TO A MECHANIC WHICH DID A DIAGNOSTIC AND TOLD ME IT WAS TORQUE CONVERTER WITH TRANSMISSION. THE CAR ONLY HAS 65K MILES. THIS IS INSANE TO HAVE THESE ISSUES AND CLEARLY THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. I FORTUNATELY PURCHASED A TRANSMISSION WARRANTY. WAITING TO SEE WHAT THE TOTAL DAMAGE IS. THIS SHOULD ABSOLUTELY BE A SAFETY RECALL.

WHENEVER MY CAR IS IN MOTION, WHEN TRYING TO CLIMB A HILL, IT WOULD STOP AUTOMATICALLY. AND OFTEN TIMES, I WOULD HAVE TO REVERSE MY CAR, TURN IT OFF AND GENTLY DRIVE IT UP THE HILL FOR FEAR THAT IT MAY SHUT ITSELF OFF. I HAVE HAD TO CHANGE THE AIR MASS FLOW 3 TIMES. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON SINCE SEPTEMBER, AND WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP, THE DIAGNOSES CAME BACK AS THE AIR MASS FLOW, AFTER I HAVE JUST REPLACED IT. THE CAR WOULD AUTOMATICALLY NOT GET GAS FOR NO APPARENT REASONS. I AM NOT COMFORTABLE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY ANY LONGER.
