This vehicle when driven in traffic or at a stop and go area will not accelerate at normal speed. The RPM goes up and the vehicle will not go. However when we’ve taken it to a mechanic or Nissan there is no issue with the transmission and when we turn the car off and the turn it back on the vehicle continues to work perfectly fine. No codes come up on the mechanic reading device and nothing shows as being wrong with the vehicle which leads me to believe it may be a recall. This is not only happening with my Nissan Rogue however it is happened in all Nissan Vehicles in general. I ask that you please look into this issue and figure out if it is a manufacturer malfunction.

I took my Nissan rouge in September 2021 to a mechanic to check my car. I explained I was driving to From Tampa to Orlando in the i-4 and I could. Or accelerate, the car speed stayed at 40 mph speed , and not going more than that. I had to pull over because my car was almost wanting to shut off. Very scary situation. After my mechanic checked my vehicle, he advised me that my transmission was faulty and that I should not drive it far distance as I did. The worst part is that my Nissan never gave me any warning of the issue. My mechanic gave me a price of over $3000,which I could not afford. Now I have a car that has a bad transmission and no money to fix it.

THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS AS PEOPLE WERE PASSING ME LEFT AND RIGHT AT ABOUT 65MPH AND I COULDN'T GO FASTER THAN 20. I COULDN'T GET OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I PULLED OVER. TURNED OFF THE ROGUE, TURNED BACK ON. STILL HAD THE ISSUE. THERE WERE NOT WARNING LIGHTS. I LET THE CAR SIT FOR ABOUT 30 MINS. SUDDENLY IT WAS WORKING AGAIN. I DROVE IT HOME. THINKING THE ISSUE TO BE A COMPUTER FLUKE, I HAD THE ISSUE AGAIN THE FOLLOWING WEEK ON ANOTHER 2 HOUR DRIVE. SAME ISSUE. THIS TIME I CALLED NISSAN. THEY TOLD ME MY VIN DOES NOT FIT THE RECALL FOR THE OTHER ROGUES OF THE SAME YEAR THAT ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE. I'M GUESSING BECAUSE NHTSA DOES NOT LIST NISSAN ROGUE SELECT. THEY ONLY HAVE NISSAN ROGUE ON THE LIST. I WROTE IN SELECT ON MY OWN. I LOOKED UP THE PART ISSUE FOR THE ROGUE CVT ISSUE. IT'S THE SAME PART IN THE ROGUE SELECT. AS LONG AS I DRIVE UNDER AN HOUR I'M FINE. BUT THIS IS VERY UNREALISTIC AND VERY UNSAFE. I HAVE A VIDEO OF THE WHOLE THING. THIS SITE DOESN'T ALLOW VIDEO UPLOADS. *TR

Consequence & remedy
Consequence: Driver contact with a key in the collapsed position could inadvertently shut off the vehicle while driving, increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, if the vehicle shuts off while driving, the air bags may not deploy in a crash as intended, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy: Dealers will insert a spacer into the key slot of the jackknife key, free of charge. Interim notification letters notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed March 29, 2023.
