2013 Nissan Rogue

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS FOR OVER AN HOUR, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND STALLED. ALSO, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HOFFMAN NISSAN (46 ALBANY TURNPIKE, CANTON, CT 06019, (860) 651-3256) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION OIL WAS NOT COOLING. IN ADDITION, THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND AN AIR COOLER NEEDED TO BE INSTALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER OPENED CASE NUMBER: 31451265 AND OFFERED TO COVER FIFTY PERCENT OF THE REPAIR COST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I DID NOT GET ANY INDICATIONS FROM MY CAR THAT I WAS LOOSING POWER ON THE INTERSTATE. I PUSH THE GAS PEDAL AND NOTHING. I WAS DRIVING FOR OVER AN HOUR AND THAT IS WHEN IT HAPPENS. UNFORTUNATELY THIS HAS HAPPEN MORE THAN ONCE. AT TIMES IT START TO SLOWS DOWN. ONE TIME WHEN I GOT OFF THE INTERSTATE AND STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN AND IT ALMOST DIED AT THE INTERSECTION. NOW I SEE IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM I WOULD LIKE NISSAN TO FIX THIS BECAUSE THIS COULD BE A SERIOUS PROBLEM FOR ME OR ANYONE DRIVING THIS. I ALMOST GOT HIT MY A TRUNK, AND A CAR ON THE INTERSTATE I DON'T TRUST THIS CAR ANYMORE. I WOULD LIKE THEM TO FIX IT RIGHT...

CAR LOST POWER AS WE WERE ON THE HIGHWAY, GOING FROM 70 TO 40 MPH IN NO TIME. STARTED TO SMOKE. JUST HAD OIL CHANGED AND ALL FLUIDS CHECKED WITHOUT ANY ISSUES. AFTER WE WERE TOWED OFF THE HIGHWAY AND WAITING WE DECIDED TO TRY THE CAR AGAIN TO SEE IF IT WAS WORKING. CAR WENT FINE THE REST OF THE WAY. COMING BACK HOME ABOUT 300 MILES, CAR DROVE OK, BUT IT FELT LIKE THERE WAS SOMETHING OFF. BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT IT NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION AS WELL AS A TRANSMISSION COOLER KIT. TOTAL WOULD BE $5200. CAR ONLY HAS 67000 MILES, PAID IN FULL AT TIME OF PURCHASE, WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 60000 MILES. CONTACTED NISSAN, I WAS TOLD OTHER YEARS HAD EXTENDED WARRANTY ON TRANSMISSION BUT NOT MY YEAR. ALSO FOUND OUT THAT THERE'S BEEN RECALLS ON OTHER YEARS REGARDING THE TRANSMISSION BUT NOT 2013. I SEE THERE ARE MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE REGARDING THIS ISSUE. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR AND I REALLY THINK NISSAN SHOULD MAKE RESTITUTION ON THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE CONTACTED THEM AND WAITING FOR REGIONAL DEPARTMENT TO CONTACT ME TODAY.

I STARTED MY CAR ONE DAY AND STARTED TO SMELL SOMETHING BURNING. I SAW NO SMOKE AND IMMEDIATELY SHUT THE CAR OFF. I WENT INTO MY HOME AND GOT MY HUSBAND TO COME AND CHECK THE CAR. HE STARTED IT UP AND THE BURNING SMELL CONTINUED. AGAIN, WE IMMEDIATELY SHUT THE CAR OFF. MY ROGUE WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT DAY I WENT TO USE MY CAR. MY HUSBAND ADVISED TO LEAVE THE CAR ALONE AND TAKE HIS TRUCK. THE NEXT DAY WE WENT OUT TO CHECK ONTO THE CAR AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP WITH NO BURNING SMELL BUT MY "CHECK ENGINE" AND "ABS" LIGHTS STAYED ON. I HAD TO CONTACT NISSAN CORPORATION TWICE JUST TO GET SOMEONE TO RETURN MY CALLS. I HAD TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH MY NYS ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE TO GET NISSAN'S ATTENTION ONLY TO RECEIVE A LETTER TELLING MY MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE WAS NOT UNDER RECALL AND THEY WOULDN'T HELP. HOW CAN AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WHEN SOMETHING OBVIOUSLY BURNED NOT BE THEIR RESPONSIBILITY? I HAVE HAD MY CAR REGULARLY SERVICED AT MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER AND HAVE LESS THAN 60000 MILES. THE CAR STILL SITS UNUSABLE IN MY DRIVEWAY.

DRIVING OVER MOUNTAIN PASS FROM DENVER TO SLIVERTHORN I LOSE POWER AND CAN NOT GET SPEED ABOVE 45MPS AND DROPPING. DRIVING DENVER TO CAPSER ENGINE OVER HEATS AND STALLS AT OVERPASS WITH NO POWER TO DRIVE FOR 10 MIN UNTIL ENGINE COOLED DOWN. DRIVING FROM JACKSON HOLE TO LANDERS CAR STALLED ON HWY AND HAD TO BE SHUT DOWN FOR 15 MIN TO COOL BEFORE COULD DRIVE. ENGINE IS TILL RUNNING AT THESE TIMES BUT NO POWER OR DRIVE AND SEEMS LIKE ENGINE IS OVERHEATING. IS SAFTY HAZORD ON ROAD BECAUSE IT WILL STALL OUT WITH NO NOTICE AND NO WAY TO EVEN GET POWER TO MOVE OFF OF ROAD IF COME TO COMPLETE STOP AFTER 2-3 HR DRIVE AND STOP AT LIGHT. SEEMS TO BE WORSE DURRING SUMMER MONTHS WHEN IT IS HOTTER OUTSIDE (LIKE LAST WEEK DRIVING OVER EISENHOUER PASS/TUNNEL) THAT IT DOES DRIVING THE SAME ROAD IN WINTER. THOUGHT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS ALREADY AND NIASSAN WAS WORKING ON IT IN HOTTER AREAS LIKE TX FIRST THEN THEN GETTING TO OTHER REGIONS BUT IS ALSO EFFECTING DRIVING HERE IN CO. DATE IT HAS HAPPENED ARE SEVERAL 08/25/2014 (CASPER OVERPASS) 09/10/2015 (LANDERS WY ON HWY) 05/18/18 ON I-70 GOING UP EISENHOWER PASS/TUNNEL NO POWER MADE IT TO TOWN AND STOPPED TO EAT TO GIVE TIME TO COOL OFF BUT WITH THEY WAY THE CAR HAS PREFOMED IN PAST AND WAS LOSING POWER IF MPS WOULD HAVE GOTTEN TO 20MPS AND I WOULD HAVE STOPPED CAR WOULD HAVE BEEN STALLED AT LEAST 15 MIN ON THE ROAD. THE ONLY THING I HATE ABOUT THE ROGUE IS LOSS OF POWER AND OVERHEATING. PLEASE F/U WITH MANUFACTURE TO CHECK INTO ENGINE OVERHEATING. I KNOW MY SISTER ALSO OWNED ONE THAT HAD TO HAVE HEAT SENSOR PLACED ON ENGINE TO HELP WITH OVERHEATING ON ONE SIDE AND HERE MODEL WAS ALSO A ROGUE CLOSE TO SAME YEAR. NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE SOMEONE LOSES POWER AND GETS HIT ON HWY. 2014 HWY SPEED 70-75 45000. MAY 2018 65MPS BEFORE PASS AND DROPPING TO 40-45 ON PASS. LANDERS 65MPS 2014 55000, 2018 MTN 96000

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE MADE A LOUD WHINING NOISE WHILE ACCELERATING. THE DEALER (CANNON NISSAN IN JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 90,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

MY WIFE AND GRANDDAUGHTER WERE TRAVELLING IN OUR 2013 NISSAN ROGUE WHEN IT DEVELOPED A PROBLEM. SHE STATED SHE WAS ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WHEN IT SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND A TRUCK FOLLOWING BEHIND HER ALMOST SLAMMED INTO HER. I COULDN'T BELIEVE THIS HAPPENED AND DECIDED TO DRIVE IT MYSELF ON A 600 MILE TRIP. WHEN I WAS 3/4'S OF THE WAY THROUGH I NOTICED A DROP IN SPEED AND WHEN DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR IT FAILED TO GO ANY FASTER. WHEN I TRAVELED UP HILL MY SPEED WENT DOWN TO 30 MPH AND I HAD TO PULL OVER DUE TO TRAFFIC BACKING UP BEHIND ME. I LATER LEARNED THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THE NISSAN CVT. NOW I AM UNABLE TO TRUST TAKING THIS CAR ON ANY OTHER LONG TRIPS DUE TO SAFETY ISSUES. I CAN'T TAKE A CHANCE OF ANOTHER FAMILY MEMBER BEING KILLED DUE TO THE INHERENT PROBLEMS THAT NISSAN HAS REFUSED TO REPAIR OR ADDRESS.

BEGINNING IN NOVEMBER OF 2017, ACCELERATION BEGAN TO HAVE ISSUES. WHEN ACCELERATING, THE CAR WOULD DRAG AND HESITATE BEFORE FULLY DROPPING INTO GEAR. ALL OTHER COMPONENTS WORKED FINE. I WOULD ALLOW THE CAR TO HEAT UP 10-15 MINUTES IN THE MORNING AND THAT DID NOT HELP. SHORTLY AFTER, EACH TIME I STEP ON THE GAS, THE ENGINE REVS TREMENDOUSLY DESPITE THE SLIGHTEST ACCELERATION. THE PIN WILL NOT MOVE THEN MOVE QUICKLY CAUSING A GRINDING/BUZZING SOUND BETWEEN 2K & 3K BEFORE FEELING LIKE IT DROPS I TOM GEAR, EVEN AT 15-25MPH. THIS PROBLEM CONTINUES, BUT THE CAUSE CAN NO TO BE DIAGNOSED. IN JANUARY OF 2018, THE WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD CAME ON AND THE CAR LOST ACCELERATION. UPON TAKING IT TO THE MECHANIC, I WAS TOLD EVERYTHING TESTED FINE, THE SOFTWARE SIMPLY NEEDED TO BE RESET. AFTER RESETTING, THE LIGHT HAS NOT RETURNED, BUT THE ACCELERATION ISSUE HAS NOT CHANGED. IN MARCH OF 2018 AFTER EXPERIENCING ANOTHER ABRUPT SLOW-DOWN ON A SIDE STREET, I PARKED THE CAR AND SMELLED A BURNING OF SOME TYPE OF FLUID UPON GETTING OUT OF THE CAR. ONCE THE INITIAL SMELL DISPERSED, NO SIGN OF DAMAGE, LEAKING, OR OTHER ISSUE WAS PRESENT. IN APRIL OF 2018, NO FURTHER ACCELERATION ISSUES HAVE OCCURRED, BUT THE WARNING LIGHTS AGAIN CAME ON. AGAIN, NOTHING WAS DIAGNOSED, IT WAS SAID THERE WAS SOME TYPE OF SOFTWARE ISSUE AND SIMPLY NEEDED TO BE RESET AGAIN. SHORTLY AFTER, THE AC UNIT COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. I TURNED OFF THE CAR, RESTARTED AND THE SYSTEM CAME BACK ON, BUT NO MATTER WHAT BLOWS OUT HOT AIR WHICH IS HOTTER OFTEN THAN IF THE HEAT IS TURNED ON FULL BLAST. THE CAR HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED AND UNDERGONE REGULARLY SCHEDULE MAINTENANCE AND HAS 84K MILES. MY MECHANIC RAN THE VIN AND THERE'S WERE NO OPEN RECALLS, HOWEVER, THE CAR WAS JUST DIAGNOSED WITH AN 'ELECTRICAL ISSUE.'
