2012 Nissan Rogue

THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE ACCELERATION COMPLETELY DROPPED. THE CAR WOULD NOT GO OVER 20 MPH! THERE WAS A RECALL UP TO 2010 NISSAN ROGUE FOR THE CVT TRANSMISSION BUT DOESN'T COVER 2012. THE ERROR WAS TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH SOLENOID CIRCUIT INTERMITTENT. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP SAID THEY DON'T REPLACE THAT PART AND IT NEEDS A WHOLE NEW TRANSMISSION FOR $5000. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE OTHER VEHICLES IN 2012 HAVE A RECALL FOR THE TRANSMISSION BUT NOT THE ROGUE.

MANY TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, USUALLY GOING UPHILL, I HAVE TROUBLES WITH THE VEHICLE'S ACCELERATION. THE CAR STARTS TO MAKE A FUNNY SOUND, AS IF IT'S TRYING TO ACCELERATE, BUT IS UNABLE TO. I'VE HAD TO PULL OVER BECAUSE THE CAR WILL SLOW DOWN AND WILL NOT GO PAST LIKE 40 MILES PER HOUR, EVEN IF I'M STEPPING ON THE GAS. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE I'M TYPICALLY NOT IN THE SLOW LANE, SO I START TO IMPEDE TRAFFIC WHEN THIS HAPPENS, AND CARS GET REALLY CLOSE TO HITTING ME.

I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION OF CAR TWICE ON THE HIGHWAY. CAR FEELS AND SOUNDS LIKE IT IS STUCK IN ONE GEAR. I COULDN'T DRIVE FASTER THAN 75 MPH. CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN EVEN WITH MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL. SPEED DROPPED FROM 75 TO 65, FROM 65 TO 60, FROM 60 TO 55, FROM 55 TO 49, FROM 49 TO 45, FROM 45 TO 30, FROM 30 TO 10 MPH. ALL OF THIS HAPPENED WITHIN 2 MILES OF THE NEAREST EXIT. I TRIED USING CRUISE CONTROL TO MAINTAIN SPEED AT 65 MPH, BUT IT DIDN'T WORK. CAR TOWED BY AAA ON 9/10/17.

2012 NISSAN ROGUE LOST ACCELERATION WHILE ON A TRIP. ROGUE WOULD NOT GO MORE THEN 30-40 MPH IN A 80 MPH SPEED ZONE ON HIGHWAY. ALMOST GOT HIT A COUPLE TIMES TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC AND HAVING TO PULL OVER TO GIVE THE CAR A BREAK. IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS WITH BEING 7 MONTHS PREGNANT, DRIVING IN A NO SERVICE AREA. COULDN'T CALL FOR HELP. IT WAS HOT OUT TO HAVE TO STOP WITH MY SELF AND THREE DOGS IN THE CAR.

DRIVING FOR 20 MINUTES ON HIGHWAY, TRAVELLING AT 75 MPH. CHANGED LANES, SLOWED DOWN TO 65MPH. ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE, RPM STUCK AT 2400, VEHICLE WOULDN'T ACCELERATE PAST 70 AFTER TAKING 10 SECONDS TO RISE TO THAT FROM 65MPH. DIDN'T GO PAST 2700RPM. GOT OFF HIGHWAY, STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT. LIGHT TURNED GREEN, CAR ROSE VERY SLOWLY TO 2000 RPM, ACCELERATED VERY SLOWLY TO 30MPH. THIS CONTINUED FOR 5 MINUTES, PULLED OVER AND PARKED FOR 1 HOUR. STARTED DRIVING AGAIN, 30 MINUTES LATER CAR STUCK AT 2400 RPM, COULDN'T ACCELERATE PAST PREVIOUS TRAVELLING SPEED. TOOK TO DEALER, NO DIAGNOSTIC CODES FOUND, OF COURSE, 140 DOLLARS LATER NO RESOLUTION. CAR HAS 70,935 MILES ON IT

IN THE LAST 30 DAYS I HAVE MADE THE EXACT SAME 5 HOUR ROUND TRIP DRIVE THREE TIMES. ON TWO OF THESE TRIPS, I EXPERIENCED SUDDEN LOSS OF ACCELERATION AFTER APPROXIMATELY 3-1/2 HOURS OF DRIVING (BOTH INSTANCES STARTED WITHIN 5 MILES OF THE OTHER). THOUGH BOTH OCCURRED WITHOUT ANY SIGN OF A MECHANICAL PROBLEM AND CONTINUED UNTIL CAR HAD BEEN STOPPED AND SHUT OFF FOR 30 MINUTES OR MORE, TODAY'S EVENT NEARLY CAUSED LOSS OF LIFE! WHEN TRYING TO MERGE ONTO I-95 FROM I-295 IN JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC I SUDDENLY COULD NOT ONLY ACCELERATE TO GET ON 95 AND MOVE OVER 2 LANES TO CLEAR THE EXIT ONLY AIRPORT LANE BUT CONTINUED TO SLOW DOWN IN MASSIVE HIGH SPEED TRAFFIC! DURING THIS TIME THE GAS PEDAL WAS FULLY DEPRESSED WITHOUT RESULT OTHER THAN RPM CHANGE TO ALMOST 3. NO CODES WERE DETECTED EITHER TIME. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW, HAS BEEN WELL TAKEN CARE OF AND REGULARLY SERVICED. IT HAS 75,214 MILES ON IT. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IN THE 3 TRIPS I MADE WAS STOPPING FOR ABOUT 45 MINUTES TO EAT BEFORE DRIVING BACK ON TRIP #2 AND HAD NO PROBLEMS AT ALL WITH ACCELERATION.

TRANSMISSION WILL STALL AND/OR LOSE ACCELERATION WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. WILL NOT INCREASE SPEED, REGARDLESS OF IF THE PEDAL IS TO THE FLOOR OR NOT. IF YOU COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, THE VEHICLE DOES NOT MOVE OVER 5 MPH UNTIL YOU STOP, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF, SOMETIMES FOR UP TO 30 MIN, AND RESUME DRIVING. THIS IS THE 4TH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED WITHIN 30 DAYS, ALWAYS WHILE GOING OVER 60 MPH, AND FREEWAY DRIVING FOR 10 MIN +.
