2013 Nissan Rogue

WHEN DRIVING IN THE SUMMER HEAT AND GOING UP A HILL OR FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME, THE CAR STARTS TO SLOW DOWN, EVEN IF YOU PUSH THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. IT IS SCARY WHEN YOU ARE NEEDING TO TURN OUT INTO AN INTERSECTION FOR INSTANCE, BECAUSE YOU CAN'T MOVE THE CAR OUT OF THE WAY QUICKLY ENOUGH, WHICH A PERSON COULD BE HIT BY OTHER ONCOMING CARS. I WAS NEVER TOLD THAT THE CAR HAS THIS PROBLEM AND AFTER THE FIRST TIME THAT IT HAPPENED TO ME, I TOOK IT INTO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT PROBLEM IS COMMON WITH THE 2013 ROGUES. SO AFTER LEARNING THAT, I HAVE GONE ONLINE AND FOUND THERE ARE SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR ROGUES. I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO KNOW THAT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THAT CAR. I WOULDN'T HAVE BOUGHT IT HAD I KNOWN.

MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE AWD LOSES ACCELERATION ON THE HIGHWAY. I LIVE IN A MOUNTAINOUS AREA AND IT APPEARS TO HAPPEN WHEN ACCELERATING UP HILL. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME AT BETWEEN 65-75 MPH. I WILL BE ACCELERATING UP A HILL AT 70 MPH AND IT WILL DROP DOWN TO SOMETIMES 50 MPH EVEN WHEN PRESSING I'M THE ACCELERATOR COMPLETELY. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS WHEN SEMI TRUCKS ARE PASSING YOU IN THE MOUNTAINS GOING 10 UNDER THE SPEED LIMIT. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE AND NISSAN SHOULD RECALL THEM IMMEDIATELY. I'VE HEARD OF MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ACROSS THE GLOBE WITH THIS MODEL. MY ROGUE IS ONLY NOW AT 57,000 MILES. I NOTICED THE ISSUE AT 50,000 MILES. I AM AN EXCELLENT DRIVER AND I DO NOT SPEED.

CAR DID NOT ACCELERATE WHEN I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AFTER ABOUT 2 HOURS DRIVING. THIS HAPPENED WITH NO APPARENT REASON AND WITHOUT ANY WARNING. IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE LEFT LANE AND HAD TO CROSS FOR LANES IN ORDER TO STOP ON THE SIDE. SEVERAL MINUTES LATER, AFTER LETTING THE CAR TO REST, THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT WAS TURNED ON. AFTER FEW MORE MINUTES THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL RETURNED WORKING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED EVEN WITH A PASSENGER SEATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GRENADA NISSAN (LOCATED AT 2105 SUNSET DR, GRENADA, MS 38901, (662) 226-2116) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BODY COMBINATION SWITCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 92,019. *BF CONSUMER STATED SHE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NOT KNOWING THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH IT.*JB

I OWN A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE WITH THE CVT (CONTINUOUS VARIABLE TRANSMISSION). WHILE DRIVING ALONG THE HIGHWAY THE CAR LOOSES THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE, THE ENGINE BEGINS TO WHINE AND THE RPM SHOOT WAY UP HIGH. FOR EXAMPLE: WHILE TRAVELING 75 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CARD STOPS ACCELERATING AND AS IF YOU HAVE TAKEN YOU FOOT COMPLETELY OFF THE GAS PEDAL YOU ARE NOW DOING 60 MPH, BUT IN REALITY YOU GAS PEDAL IF PUSHED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. NISSAN IS SELLING DEFECTIVE VEHICLES IN SUCH A WAY THAT MAKES THEM PRONE TO FAILURE WHILE THE CAR IS BEING DRIVEN. AS A RESULT, PEOPLE ARE BEING INJURED AND ARE AFRAID FOR THEIR LIVES. SOME ARE LOOSING THEIR ONLY SOURCE OF TRAVELING, WHICH IN TURNS COSTS THEM THEIR JOB. THE CAR DOES NOT OVERHEAT BUT WHEN THE WEATHER IS WARMER, THE PROBLEM IS MORE COMMON. IF I AM UNDERSTANDING CORRECTLY...THE TRANSMISSION FLUID MUST COOL DOWN IN ORDER FOR THE CAR TO BE ABLE TO ACCELERATE NORMALLY. MY 2013 ROGUE ORIGINALLY HAD THE ABOVE DESCRIBED PROBLEM IN 2016 AND NISSAN COVERED THE REPAIR OF THE PROBLEM. YESTERDAY, 4/5/2019, MARKS THE INITIAL REOCCURRENCE OF THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE CAR SUDDENLY NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE ON THE HIGHWAY. BECAUSE MY CAR HAS JUST UNDER 120,000 MILES ON IT, THE DEALERSHIP IS CLAIMING THAT IT IS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND THAT I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR NOT ONLY DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM (FOR A FEE) BUT ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIRING THE VEHICLE.
