2013 Nissan Rogue

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO EXCEED 15 MPH. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 108,000.

WHILE TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH MY DAUGHTER TURNED OFF CRUISE CONTROL TO PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE AND ACCELERATED TO PASS THEN RETURNED TO THE RIGHT LANE AND TURNED CRUISE BACK ON. WHEN SHE DID THIS THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN TO ABOUT 40MPH. SHE WAS NEAR AN EXIT SO SHE TOOK IT AND AS SHE WAS CLIMBING THE HILL ON THE EXIT THE CAR HAD LOST SO MUCH POWER SHE WAS GOING ABOUT 5MPH. SHE MADE IT UP THE EXIT AND PULLED THE CAR OVER AND SHUT IT OFF. SHE WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND STARTED IT AGAIN AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE AT ALL UNTIL SHE GOT IT UP TO ABOUT 5000 RPM AND THEN IT WAS ONLY INCHING FORWARD A LITTLE. SHE LET THE CAR SIT FOR ABOUT 4 HOURS AND TOWED IT HOME BUT BY THEN THE VEHICLE STARTED UP AND RODE UP THE TRAILER RAMP AND THEN BACK DOWN THE RAMP WHEN SHE GOT IT HOME JUST LIKE IT WAS NORMAL.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY US-90 COMING HOME FROM NEW ORLEANS TO GULFPORT. MY CARS CRUISE CONTROL HAD STOPPED WORKING 45 MINTUES TO AN HOUR AFTER I GOT ONTO US-49 MY CHECK LIGHT CAME ON I PRESSED MY ACCELERATE PEDTAL TO THE FLOOR AN THE ONLY THING IT DID WAS RAISE MY RPMS TO ALMOST 6. ME AN MY CHILD IN THE BACK SEAT WERE ALMOST HIT IN THE REAR BY AN 18 WHEELER BECAUSE MY VEHICLE HAD TROUBLE WITH THE TRANSMISSION. WHEN I GOT BACK TO GULFPORT MS I STOP AT A AUTO-ZONE AN THEY PUT IT ON THE DIGITAL DEVICE AN 3-4 CODES CAME UP THE TURQUE CONVERTER WAS BAD IN MY CAR. I KNOW FROM READING ON THE INTERNET BULLETINS THAT NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AN HASNT DONE ANYTING ABOUT IT.

THE CARS PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT WILL STAY ILLUMINATED AS OFF WHEN NO ONE OR NOTHING IS IN THE SEAT. THIS LIGHT SHOULD GO OFF WITHIN 7 SECONDS OF THE CAR TURNING ON. AND WHEN AN ADULT PASSENGER OF ADEQUATE SIZE GETS IN THE SEAT IT MAY OR MAY NOT REMAIN OFF. THIS MEANS THAT THE AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY IF NEEDED BECAUSE THE OCS SENSOR IS NOT PROPERLY REGISTERING THE WEIGHT OF THE PASSENGER. THE PASSENGER SEATBELT LIGHT WILL ALSO REMAIN ON AFTER A PASSENGER EXITS THE VEHICLE AS IF SOMEONE IS STILL SEATING THERE AND NEEDS TO APPLY THE SEATBELT. ANOTHER FAULT OF THE OCS SENSOR. THE CAR HAS BEEN STATIONARY AND IN MOTION WHEN THIS OCCURS. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN AND BEEN TOLD THAT MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO AT THIS TIME. OTHER ROGUE MODEL YEARS AND NISSANS IN GENERAL HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS SAME ISSUE YET NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE FOR THE 2013 ROGUE. I WAS TOLD THAT I NEED A NEW SEAT AT A VALUE OF $2600-$3000. THIS IS CLEARLY A NISSAN ISSUE NOT A CUSTOMER ISSUE. IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND FIXED. T

THE VEHICLE IS NOT SHIFTING CORRECTLY ON HIGHWAY OR CITY, THE RPMS FLUCTUATE WHEN HITTING THE GAS AND AND SPEED DOES NOT MATCH THE RPMS. WHICH GETTING TO 60MPH THE CAR STARTS TO SHAKE AND WILL DOWN SHIFT AND WHICH MAKES THE VEHICLE HARDER TO ACCELERATE AND IN SOME CASES WONT ACCELERATE AT ALL EVEN WITH THE RPMS CONTINUING TO RAISE. I HAVE GOTTEN IT LOOKED AT BY CERTIFIED MECHANICS AND THE SAID THEY CANNOT TELL THE ISSUE ESPECIALLY WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS AND NO FAULTY CODES. WHEN SITTING AT A STAND STILL THE RPMS CONTINUE TO RAISE OVER 2000 EVEN WITH THE VEHICLE IN PARK.

I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR SINCE THE FIRST WEEK I BOUGHT IT. IF IT'S NOT ONE THING IT'S ANOTHER. ENGINE PROBLEMS, OIL LEAKING PROBLEMS. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON WHENEVER. POSSIBLE OIL BURNING PROBLEM. SPARK PLUGS, PISTON RINGS, AXLES, CYLINDERS, MOUNTS. THIS CAR IS IN THE SHOP EVERY OTHER 2-3 WEEKS. NOW IT'S BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR A MONTH+. IT'S IS CRAZY THAT A DEALERSHIP WOULD SELL THIS VEHICLE TO A CUSTOMER. THERE'S EVEN THIS THUDDERING NOISE. THINGS HAVE BEEN FIXED AND SOMETHING ELSE WENT WRONG. IT'S BEEN NON STOP REPAIRS SINCE DAY ONE. IT ALSO SEEMS THAT 2013 NISSAN ROGUES AND HAD MANY MANUFACTURER PROBLEMS AND ISSUES. I FEEL THIS WAS DAMAGED CAR THAT WAS NEVER REPORTED AND THEN SOMEONE FIXED A FEW FAKE THINGS AND THEN RESOLD IT KNOW THIS CAR WAS NO GOOD. WHEN I DRIVE IT MAKES A LOUD THUDDER NOISE, THE STEERING IS NOT SMOOTH. ALSO ONE NIGHT MY CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED WHEN I TRIED TO REVERSE AND RED LIGHT CAME ON.

I HAVE HAD ONE PROBLEM AFTER ANOTHER AND THIS STARTED RIGHT AFTER PURCHASE. A/C COMPRESSOR WENT OUT FIRST, DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, COST $600 TO FIX. AFTER THAT, THE BLOWER MOTOR BURNED UP WHILE WARMING UP ONE MORNING. I STARTED SMELLING BURNED PLASTIC, $300 REPAIR. 6 MONTHS LATER, I AM SPENDING $4000 TO REPLACE THE BURNED UP TRANSMISSION. I WENT INTO FAIL-SAFE MODE WHILE I WAS ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A TURN AGAINST TRAFFIC. THEN I COULD SMELL SOMETHING BURNED AFTER DRIVING.NOW I HAVE JUST SPENT ANOTHER $500 ON A NEW BATTERY AND CABLES AND NEW ALTERNATOR, ONLY TO HEAR MY VEHICLE STILL NOT STARTING. AS I WRITE THIS, I'M WAITING FOR A CALL FROM FIRESTONE TO NOW TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY CAR AND HOW MUCH THIS WILL COST! IT IS ONLY FEBRUARY, AND I HAVE ALREADY USED MY 2 WEEKS VACATION BECAUSE MY CAR IS UNDRIVEABLE. MEANWHILE, I STILL HAVE 2 YRS LEFT ON MY AUTO LOAN AGREEMENT. PLEASE HELP US 2013 NISSAN ROGUE VICTIMS
