2013 Nissan Rogue

When driving home from Demark S.C to Milledgeville, Ga. last Sunday when around the car stop accelerating and was making a whining noise.. The R.P. M. meter was over 8 and the speedometer was stuck on 60 m.p.h. This went on for around ten minuets, Then started back to normal. This is the second time happened when taking a similar.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while her husband was driving at a low rate of speed, the vehicle began to jerk as the check engine light illuminated the instrument panel. As the contact continued to drive, the vehicle would not accelerate above 5 MPH. Once the contact and her husband made it home she had the vehicle towed to an independent mechanic where the vehicle was diagnosed with transmission failure. The contact called County Line Nissan North(522 Winsted Rd, Torrington, CT 06790) and Balise Nissan of West Springfield(500 Riverdale St, West Springfield, MA 01089), and both referred her to the manufacturer for assistance. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and offered no assistance. The vehicle was towed back to the contact's house and had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 87,000

Starting 9/1/21 there was a delayed and jerking reaction when the gas pedal was pressed from a full stop. This was very dangerous when trying to cross intersections during city driving, as the car behind could not anticipate that our car wouldn’t go and our car was not able to cross intersections at normal speed, putting us in the way of other traffic trying to cross. During highway driving the RPMs began to run very high without an associated change in speed, causing the driver to be alarmed. An inspection by our local independent mechanic determined the transmission needs replacement. This diagnosis was then confirmed by our local Nissan dealer. The car is currently available for inspection at the Nissan dealer. There was a check engine or service now light that went on when the car would first turn on, but it would go off when the car was being driven.

We live in the Ozarks where it is very hilly. We have had several occurrences where we have traveled uphill while in our 2013 Nissan Rogue and we have had to pull over due to issues with the CVT. It is very dangerous when on the highway and the speed limit is 65 and the Rogue won't accelerate past 45 mph. The first time that this happened, we took it to a Nissan dealership and they said that the car needed a cooler kit ($200). We were out of town and they were not able to make the repairs same day so we declined. Our regular auto shop has stated that they see issues all the time with the transmission of the 2013 Rogues. It was recommended to us to get a new transmission but they aren't sure if that would actually fix the issue. They recommended selling the vehicle as Nissan is notorious for not wanting to correct their issues. The most recent incident regarding the CVT was 9/17 when my husband and I were looking to travel for a day trip an hour and a half away. We were unable to make the trip as they were many hills and the CVT made us pull over several times. We were very lucky to be in the right lane and only almost got hit twice. Unfortunately there is not always a safe spot to pull over when the CVT acts up which has left us in on the shoulder of hills. We ended up turning back around after waiting for the engine to cool for a couple of hours. This car is a nightmare.

Daughter driving to and from work. Car stalls and will not accelerate. It shakes and whistles. I called Nissan Headquarters because I knew other Nissan models have been given a 120,000 mile extended warranty to cover defective transmissions. This particular vehicle is not covered, but on carcomplaints.com it is one of the worst reported vehicles. My daughter is pregnant. This car is not safe and should be a required fixed by company.
