2014 Nissan Rogue

CAR WAS RUNNING FINE. NO ISSUES. PARKED OVERNIGHT. APRIL 18, 2018 WOULD NOT START. THOUGHT IT WAS A DEAD BATTERY. WOULD NOT JUMP. HAS BEEN TOWED AND SEEN BY PERSONAL MECHANIC AND NISSAN DEALER. THEY THINK IT MAY BE BCM/ECM ISSUE - BUT THEY ARE NOT SURE - NO CODES. PROBLEM IS CAR WONT RESPOND. THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AND SOMEONE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. IT WAS SUDDEN AND NO WARNING. STILL DOES NOT WORK AT ALL. DEALER CANNOT WITH CERTAINTY IDENTIFY SOURCE OF ISSUE.

VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ACCELERATION - ENGINE WAS RUNNING BUT CAR WOULDN'T GO FORWARD. SENT TO REPAIR, AND GO THE CAR BACK BUT A FEW DAYS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED. WAS TOLD THAT IT COULDN'T BE REPAIRED AND WAS TAKEN FROM ME. I WAS TOLD THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN AUCTIONED OFF AS JUNK BUT I WANT TO KNOW IF IT REALLY WAS. IT SHOULD DEFINITELY NEVER BE BACK ON THE ROAD.

TRANSMISSION COOLER WAS REPLACED THE WEEK 6/05/2017 BY CARRIAGE NISSAN OF GAINESVILLE, GA AND ON 6/16/2017 THE NISSAN ROGUE WAS LOSING POWER ON THE DRIVE BACK FROM ATLANTA(APPROX.. 3 HOUR DRIVE). ROGUE WAS TAKEN TO FENTON NISSAN IN KNOXVILLE, TN AND NISSAN AGREED TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION BUT WOULD NOT PAY FOR THE TRANSMISSION COOLER. ROGUE WAS PICKED UP FROM FENTON NISSAN ON 7/3/2017 AND ON 7/5/2017 THE ROGUE LOST POWER AND THE TRANSMISSION STOPPED WORKING AND MY WIFE WAS STRANDED 40 MILES FROM HOME. ROGUE WAS TOWED TO FENTON NISSAN AND UPON INVESTIGATION FOUND THAT AN UNAUTHORIZED PART WAS USED IN THE TRANSMISSION COOLER BY CARRIAGE NISSAN AND ALL THE TRANSMISSION FLUID HAD LEAKED OUT. A NEW TRANSMISSION COOLER WAS INSTALLED FREE OF CHARGE.(WE PAID $680 FOR THE FIRST DEFECTIVE COOLER) DURING THE TIME THAT THE ROGUE WAS AT FENTON NISSAN COMPUTER DIAGNOSTICS TEST WAS PERFORMED PRIOR TO RELEASING THE ROGUE TO US AND NO CODES SHOWED UP. LESS THAN A WEEK LATER THE ROGUE STARTING ACTING UP AND ONCE AGAIN TOOK IT BACK TO FENTON NISSAN AND WAS INFORMED IT WOULD COST $3000+ TO REPLACE THE ELECTRICAL HARNESS, NISSAN HAS AGREED TO PAY 50% OF THE COST. I FEEL THAT UNAUTHORIZED PART CAUSED UNDUE STRESS NOT ONLY ON THE TRANSMISSION COOLER, TRANSMISSION, AND ENGINE BUT ALSO THE ELECTRICAL HARNESS AS A RESULT OF ALL THE POWER SURGES. THERE HAVE BEEN OVER 468,000 RECALLS FOR NISSAN FOR ELECTRICAL HARNESS FAILURE FROM 2008-2013 AND ALSO SOME 2014 NISSAN ROGUES. MY ROGUE VIN NUMBER DOESN'T SHOW UP ON THE RECALL LIST BUT IT SAFE TO ASSUME THAT SINCE THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FROM 2008-2013 AND SOME OF 2014 THEN WHY COULDN'T EFFECT MY VEHICLE.

WHILE UP AND DOWN HILLS, THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH ACCELERATION. MY RPM'S WILL SHOOT UP VERY HIGH, BUT CAN NOT ACCELERATE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME 3 TIMES NOW, AND ONE TIME WAS VERY DANGEROUS. I WAS COMING OFF THE INTERSTATE (DOWNHILL) AND WENT TO CROSS ONTO THE HIGHWAY, I WAS THEN ALMOST HIT (WITH MY 2 YEAR OLD IN THE CAR) BECAUSE MY CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I MADE IT ACROSS, TURNED MY CAR OFF THEN ON AND IT SEEMED FINE AFTER THAT. IN A SITUATION WHERE THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN PLENTY OF TIME TO CROSS, I WAS ALMOST HIT. THAT WAS ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO, BUT JUST THIS MORNING I WAS GOING UP A VERY SMALL HILL (INTERSTATE RAMPS ARE STEEPER THAN THE ONE THIS HAPPENED ON), MY SUV JUST WOULDN'T ACCELERATE. AGAIN, I HAD TO PULL OVER AND TURN MY SUV OFF AND THEN BACK ON FOR IT TO WORK AGAIN.

2014 ROGUE WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WE LOST ALL POWER IN AN INSTANT. THIS IS NOT SAFE WITHOUT WARNING.IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS, THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS BY NISSAN FOR THIS PROBLEM ON EARLIER MODELS, BUT THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE 2014 MODELS AS WELL.AS OTHERS HAVE MENTIONED, THESE TRANSMISSIONS ARE A KNOWN ISSUE IN NISSANS AND IN MOST CASES, YOU WILL NOT HAVE AN ISSUE UNTIL YOU ARE OUT OF YOUR WARRANTY. NISSAN HAS ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY (110,000 MILES) ON ALL MODELS THROUGH 2010, BUT NOTHING ON THE 2014 ROGUE. MY CAR WAS AT 93,000 AND 2 YEARS OLD, SO NOW I AM STUCK FOR CLOSE TO $4500 TO GET IT REPAIRED.

WIFE COMING HOME AFTER DROPPING DAUGHTER OFF FROM SCHOOL, CAR FELT JERKY AND UNSTABLE, PULLED INTO THE DRIVEWAY AND ENGINE DIED. I THEN STARTED VEHICLE, SHIFTED INTO REVERSE, VEHICLE DIED. TRIED AGAIN AND IT STARTED, BUT HAD LOTS OF HESITATION, TOOK TO DEALERSHIP, THEY HAD IT FOR 3 WORKING DAYS AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ERROR AND NO ERROR CODE, SO THEY SENT THE VEHICLE BACK TO US. NEXT DAY WIFE WENT TO PICK UP DAUGHTER FROM SCHOOL AND WHILE PULLING OUT OF THE SCHOOL PARKING LOT, CAR DIED AND THEY WERE ALMOST STRUCK BY ANOTHER VEHICLE WHO WAS TRAVELING AT HIGHER SPEED. COULD START THE CAR, BUT COULD NOT SHIFT INTO ANY GEAR WITHOUT CAR DYING. ONCE AGAIN, NO TROUBLE/ERROR CODES WERE BEING FIRED OFF. TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP WHERE AGAIN THEY TRIED FOR 2 DAYS TO GET THE CAR TO ACT UP, UNTIL FINALLY IT ACTED UP ON THE FREEWAY WHERE IT ALMOST DIED THERE. THEY DIAGNOSED THE ISSUE AS A FAULTY TORQUE CONVERTER, WHICH REQUIRES A FULL TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE ONLY IS 3 YEARS OLD, WITH ONLY 75,000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, THE CAR CUTS OUT WITH LITTLE WARNING AT LOW SPEEDS, MEANING ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO MAKE TURNS AND ACCELERATE INTO TRAFFIC. ADDITIONALLY, NO ERROR CODES WERE THROWN AT ALL, AND TOOK 6 WORKING DAYS AT A DEALERSHIP TO DETERMINE THE ISSUE. FURTHERMORE, IT IS SPORADIC AND CANNOT BE DIAGNOSED EASILY OR QUICKLY, SUGGESTING THAT THERE IS A HIGH POTENTIAL FOR THIS ISSUE TO OCCUR WITH OTHER VEHICLES AND THEY WILL BE SENT BACK OUT ON THE ROAD WITHOUT HAVING THE ISSUE FIX, PLACING PEOPLE IN SIGNIFICANT DANGER. THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR OF THE REDESIGN OF THE ROGUE AND ONE OF THE FIRST SOLD IN TEXAS, BUT THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS THERE IS NO WAY TO EASILY DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE AND HOW THE FAILURE OCCURS. ALL RECOMMENDED SERVICES WERE PERFORMED AT NISSAN DEALERSHIPS FOR THE TRANSMISSION AS WELL AT 30K AND 60K.

PASSENGER AIR BAG IS NOT READING ADULTS. DEALERSHIP HAS FIXED ONCE, WAS INVOLVED IN ACCIDENT, DID ENOUGH DAMAGE TO DAMAGE RADIATOR, AND AIRBAGS DID NOT GO OFF. I HAD A 14 YEAR OLD IN THE FRONT SEAT. MY PASSENGER AIR BAG IS ONCE AGAIN NOT READING. THIS WAS MY MOST RECENT INCIDENT WITH MY VEHICLE. I WAS MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN, WHEN ACCELERATING MY VEHICLE SEEMED HESITANT AND MOMENTARILY STALLED WITHING MY TURN. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES, WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE. MY CAR HAD BEEN WARM DURING EACH TIME. MY TRANSMISSION HAS ALREADY STARTED SLIPPING, I WAS NOTIFIED THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE FOR THE TRANSMISSION. MY BACK SEATS SEEM TO VIBRATE. THEY VIBRATE SO MUCH, THEY MOVE SIDE TO SIDE AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE HIGHWAY. (70 MPH) THIS IS THE LEGAL SPEED IN MY AREA. I FEEL MY VEHICLE IS A LEMON WITH ALL THE RECALLS THAT HAVE BEEN FIXED ION IT ALREADY AND IS NOT SAFE. MY TOTAL MILLAGE IS ABOUT 63000.
