2012 Nissan Rogue

The contact owns a 2012 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while in reverse(R) an abnormal dragging sound was coming from the vehicle while depressing the brake pedal. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer on three separate occasions however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. On the fourth occasion, the contact was advised by her husband to have the dealer check the brake rotors and calipers. The dealer then discovered that the parts were defective, and the parts were replaced; however, after the repair was performed the failure persisted. The manufacturer had been notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.

Reported this issue to NHTSA 12/2018. Around 8/2022 incident started - full tank of gas, range 280 miles (typically 320 miles). Following daily drive/use the fuel gauge and electronic display not in sync with distance/miles remaining. I re-fueled a full tank end of August + early September (engine light pops on display) and the range as of today states 26 miles remaining (gauge should be in red area) however the gauge is at 1/4 tank. The fuel gauge and electronic display are inaccurate and erratic leaving me unsure how much fuel I actually have remaining.

I spoke with Nissan telling her my 2012 Nissan Rogue which I bought new, is currently having CVT transmission issues at 115000 miles. She told me, there was nothing Nissan is willing to do for me after 60000 miles. I am highly concerned as not only is Nissan unwilling to stand behind their product but also unwilling to do the right thing. I have followed their service book and completed all scheduled maintenance as directed. I stated I would be submitting a complaint in writing. Given I have twin 5 year old’s and if we were to be in accident then my husband has documentation to submit I had previously informed Nissan of the existing issue which is also well known and documented. Also, that shall Nissan choose not to honor my request by replacing my transmission I shall have no choice but to contact the BBB and A. G. as I do not want any other family to be injured or killed as result of Nissan choosing not to do the right thing. The issue is, while driving on the freeway, the engine will not go into second gear and will not go faster than 10mph after stopping. This is a safety issue which Nissan is aware of. The way to correct the issue is to stop the engine and let it cool for approx 1 hour then you can drive again.

CVT transmission. Car seems to lose power when accelerating from a stop or entering traffic. Shudders, shakes seems to go to limp mode. I read up on Nissan CVT issues. Warranty's have been extended on year before mine (2012) and those years after me. Called Nissan Corporate. They said they had few complaints on Rogues. I said are you serious? I've read about plenty of complaints. So why have you extended warrantys? Advised they couldn't help me. First Nissan for me and last. Have never had any transmission issues with my vehicles over the years and I'm 74. Other cars NOTHING major just regular maintenance. Disappointed with Nissan they know they have a major issue with CVT transmissions and don't stand behind their product. My car is sitting in the garage. I'm afraid to drive it and around $5000 to replace transmission. It's a 2012 Nissan Rogue SL. Please look into this issue.
