2013 Nissan Rogue

TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER IS NEEDED TO PREVENT THE TRANSMISSION CVT OIL TO STAY COOL SO IT DOES NOT GO INTO FAIL SAFE MODE HERE IN THE TEXAS HEAT. AFTER ABOUT 2 HOURS OF DRIVING IN 90 PLUS WEATHER THE VEHICLE SHUTS POWER. IT IS UNFORTUNATE TIMING WHEN IN TRAFFIC AND YOU HAVE NO POWER AND YOU HAVE TO PULL OVER WITHOUT GETTING HIT TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND SHUT IT DOWN TO RESET THE SAFE MODE.

MY CAR MAKES A LOUD RATTLING NOISE WHEN I ACCELERATE, IT DOES NOT MATTER UP HILL DOWN HILL EVERY TIME I PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS YOU CAN HEAR ME COMING DOWN THE ST, IF I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS IT STOPS BUT ITS BEEN DOING IT SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR 3 YEARS AGO BUT NOW ITS MUCH WORSE AND THE FACT THAT THE DEALER WANTS 500 JUST TO LOOK AT IT IS KILLING MY POCKETS. THEN I SEE THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP.

THERE IS AM ACCELERATION ISSUE WITH THIS CAR. WHEN TRAVELING 70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY THE RPMS WILL GO UP TO 4000 PR HIGHER AND LOSE ACCELERATION. I WENT FROM 70 MPH TO LESS THAN 30 MPH WITHIN SECONDS ON A HILL. ONCE I GOT TO THE TOP OF THE HILL TO WHERE I COULD SAFELY PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY I TURNED THE CAR OFF. I HAD TO LEAVE IT OFF FOR AT LEAST 10 MINS BEFORE I GOT THE ACCELERATION POWER BACK. IF I TIRED BEFORE THAT IT WOULDNT ACCELERATE EVEN WITH THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. I HAVE READ A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE. I WAS TOLD IT IS THE CVT TRANSMISSION. I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR LESS THAN 2 YEARS AND IT ONLY HAS 76000ISH MILES ON IT. THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED TO ME NOT ONCE, TWICE, THREE TIMES BUT FIVE TIMES NOW ON THE HIGHWAY SINCE REACHING 60000+ MILES ON THE CAR!! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS AND A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN THAT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND ADDRESSED. I HAVE 3 KIDS AND IF I GET INTO A CRASH BECAUSE OF THIS I WILL BE SUING NISSAN FOR THIS FAULTY ISSUE!!!!

AUGUST 2ND 2016 I BOUGHT MY CAR FROM FARRIS MOTTOR IN JEFFERSON CITY TN IN OCT/NOV 2016 TO DELIVER MAIL IN. THE CONVERSION KIT PUT INTO MY CAR DID NOT MODIFY THE ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION IN ANY WAY THEREFORE MY WARRANTY WAS NOT VOIDED. THE CAR RAN WELL FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS THEN ONE DAY ON ROUTE IN A LEVEL GROUND NEIGHBORHOOD I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET SERVICING THE MAILBOXES, I STOPPED AT ONE AND WHEN I WENT TO SPEED BACK UP MY CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE. I HAD THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND THE CAR WOULD BARELY MOVE. THE RPM'S DIDN'T EVEN REV UP, IT WAS JUST SILENCE, THEN AFTER A FEW SECONDS MY CAR WOULD PICK UP AND MOVE. THIS WENT ON FOR THE REST OF THE DAY AND EVERYDAY AFTER THAT. IT IS WORSE WHEN GOING UP HILL, INSTEAD OF IT PICKING UP AND MOVING AFTER A FEW SECONDS IT DOESN'T MOVE AND INSTEAD STARTS TO ROLL BACKWARDS. ALL THIS ALSO HAPPENS IN REVERSE AND STILL NO RPM'S. SO I TOOK IT TO FARRIS ABOUT THREE TIMES AND GOT NOTHING OUT OF THEM, AND WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP THEY SAID ACCORDING TO MY WARRANTY ANY WORK TO THE VEHICLE OR EVEN DOING DIAGNOSTICS WOULD HAVE TO BE APPROVED BY FARRIS WHICH THEY DID NOT. SO I WENT BACK TO FARRIS AGAIN AND HAD A TECH RIDE WITH ME SO I COULD REPLICATE WHAT WAS GOING ON. HE OBSERVED AND AGREED WITH WHAT WAS HAPPENING BUT SAID HE DIDN'T BELIEVE IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION BUT IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ENGINE. AND HE ALSO SEEMED TO BLAME MY PROFESSION FOR THE WAY THE CAR IS ACTING DUE TO THE WAY I DRIVE BUT IF THAT WERE TRUE THEN EVERYONE AT THE POST OFFICE WOULD BE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THEIR VEHICLES, SORRY BUT THAT'S NOT THE CASE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS BECAUSE MY CAR IS MY MAIN PRIORITY TO TAKE CARE OF MY FAMILY. HERE IS A LINK OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE.

THE 2013 NISSAN ROGUE WAS BUILT WITHOUT HAVING A COOLANT VALVE ON THE TRANSMISSION. I CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE RPM ON MY CAR WITH BEGIN GOING VERY HIGH AND THE SPEEDOMETER WILL NEVER MOVE ALL THE WHILE I AM PRESSING THE GAS DOWN TO THE FLOOR. THE CAR IS GOING ALMOST ONLY 20 OR 30 MILES PER HOUR AT THIS POINT. I AM NOT GOING UP A HILL OR GOING VERY FAST I USUALLY ONLY TRAVEL ABOUT 60 OR 65 MPH. IT MAKES A WHINING SOUND AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. I DID TAKE THIS ISSUE UP WITH MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID WHAT IS HAPPENING IS SINCE THERE IS NO VALVE TO KEEP THE TRANSMISSION COOL THEN IT OVERHEATS AND LOOSING ACCELERATION IS A KIND OF WAY OF "SELF-DIAGNOSING" AND ATTEMPTING TO COOL DOWN-DUE TO THERE NOT BEING A VALVE ON THE CAR DURING MANUFACTURING. I DO INDEED HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 100,000 MILES UP TO 5 YEARS, BUT THEY SAID THEY CAN NOT PAY FOR THE PART BECAUSE IT WAS NOT ON THE CAR WHEN IT WAS MADE. THEY SAID THEY WILL NOT PAY FOR PARTS TO BE PUT ON THE CAR. ON NOVEMBER 25, 2015 NISSAN PUT OUT A SERVICE BULLETIN ON HOW TO PUT THE PART ON AND ARE WELL AWARE THAT ROGUES FROM 2008-2013 DO NOT HAVE THIS VALVE. I FEEL VERY UNSAFE THAT MY CAR COULD LOSE ACCELERATION AT ANY POINT-AND IT HAS ON THE INTERSTATE, HIGHWAY, AND MANY OTHER PLACES. NISSAN STATES THAT THE ROGUE HAD EVERYTHING ON IT IT WAS SUPPOSED TO, BUT THEY CAN'T TELL ME HOW THEY CAN PUT A BULLETIN OUT ON HOW TO FIX THIS ISSUE AND THEY KNOW THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE FIXED, BUT THEN WON'T PAY FOR THE ISSUE. I REALLY FEEL THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME TYPE OF RECALL ON A CAR THAT DOES NOT HAVE THE PROPER VALVE ON IT TO KEEP IT FROM OVERHEATING. THAT SOUNDS LIKE A REAL SAFETY ISSUE TO ME, A SINGLE MOTHER WHO WORKS AND TRAVELS WITH 2 SMALL CHILDREN.
