2014 Nissan Rogue

I BOUGHT A 2014 ROGUE SELECT 33,000 MILES FROM LARRY H. MILLER NISSAN IN DEC 2015. SHORTLY AFTER MY PURCHASE IN JAN - I FREQUENTLY EXPERIENCED MY CAR ENGINE GOING INTO SAFETY MODE WHEN ON THE FREEWAY. HAVING NO POWER. I TOOK TO LHM SERVICE DEPT A TOTAL OF 7 TIMES. SORRY WE ARE NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. LAST TIME I TOOK THEY HAD AN UPGRADE AND SAID OH IT IS YOUR CVT TRANSMISSION IT'S FRIED. AT THIS POINT MY SUV WAS AT 114000 MILES. I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE DEPT I HAD A 100000 MILE WARRANTY,THEY CALLED BACK AND SAID IT WAS 60,000. CORPORATE GAVE ME THE RUN AROUND. FINALLY AGREED TO PAY 70% I HAD TO PAY 30%. IT WAS UNFAIR I HAD BROUGHT THIS TO THEM A MONTH AFTER PURCHASE AND 7MORE TIMES. CVT TRANSMISSION REPLACED I PAID 30% ABOUT $1000. I PICKED UP MY CAR THEY SAID THE BATTERY HAD DIED BUT THEY CHARGED IT. I GOT TO WORK TURNED OFF WENT TO LEAVE 20 MIN LATER DEAD. CALLED LHM SERVICE SEVERAL TIMES NO ANSWER, EMAILED NO RESPONSE.I BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY. CALLED CORP THEY REGUJ FED ME AS IT WAS UJNDER WARRANTY. LHM NEVER CONTACTED ME BACK. 3 MONTHS LATER MY ALTERNATOR WENT OUT. MY MECHANIC REPLACED IT $300. 2 MONTHS AGO MY A.C. COMPRESSOR WENT OUT. MY MECHANIC REPLACED IT $350. SO TODAY MY SUV STARTED DOING THE WHINING NOISE AND ENGINE GOING INTO SAFE MODE. I'M NOW AT 144000 MILES AND THE CVT TRANSMISSION HAD 12,000 MILE WARRANTY! I DRIVE A LOT.I ALSO TAKE GREAT CARE OF MY CAR AND DO NOT DRIVE FAST, I PUT MOST OF MY MILES ON THE FREEWAY. DRIVING AT 70MPH AND THEN CAR ENGINE GOING INTO SAFE MODE WITH NO POWER ON THE FREEWAY IS DANGEROUS. I ASKED THEM TO GOOGLE IT OTHERS HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE I WAS TOLD THEY DON'T GOOGLE IF IT ISN'T SHOWING ERROR CODES THEY WOULDN'T KNOW WHAT TO FIX.I STILL OWE ABOUT $14000 NOW NEED A 2ND GET TRANSMISSION REPLACED WITH NO WARRANTY?? NO HELP FROM NISSAN? TOYOTA WOULD NEVER DO BUSINESS THIS WAY.

AT AROUND 60,000 MILES MY TRANSMISSION STARTED ACTING UP. I WAS DRIVING ON A HILLY HIGHWAY AND MY CAR LOST SPEED AND WAS HAVING TROUBLE ACCELERATING BACK UP TO THE SPEED LIMIT. WHILE PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL THE RPM WOULD INCREASE AND THE CAR WOULD MAKE A LOUD NOISE AS IF IT WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE BUT IT WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED. WHEN I GOT OFF AT THE NEXT EXIT THE CAR WOULD BARELY MOVE AFTER STOPPING AT THE STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE THEN. IT NOW HAPPENS IF I DRIVE THE CAR FOR LONGER THAN 25 MINUTES, LESS TIME IF I'M USING THE AC OR HEAT. AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN TURNED OFF FOR A FEW HOURS IT WORKS NORMALLY AGAIN AS LONG AS I'M ONLY GOING SHORT DISTANCES. DURING THE ACCELERATION ISSUES YOU CAN SMELL TRANSMISSION FLUID. IT JUST HAPPENED AGAIN AND I HAD ONLY GONE 20 MILES ON THE HIGHWAY.

LOSS OF ACCELERATION. THE FIRST TIME IT OCCURRED WAS FROM A STOP SIGN. PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL AND THE RPM'S ONLY WENT TO 3000 WITH THE CAR ONLY SLOWLY MOVING FORWARD. THE SECOND TIME IT OCCURRED WAS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT 70MPH. ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE WHEN AGAIN THE RPM'S ONLY WENT TO 3000 AND COULD ONLY MAINTAIN CURRENT SPEED. NO RESPONSE FROM SPORT BUTTON OR OVER DRIVE BUTTON. AFTER THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED IT RESUMED NORMAL OPERATIONS. BOTH VERY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS IF POWER AND ACCELERATION WOULD HAVE BEEN NEEDED.

WHILE TRAVELING 60MPH ON I43 IN MILWAUKEE, THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. I WAS ABLE TO COAST THE CAR OFF AN EXIT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CAR WOULD ONLY GO IN REVERSE. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC AND MAGICALLY NORMAL FORWARD DRIVING RESUMED. DIAGNOSTICS SHOWED NO ISSUES. I WAS INSTRUCTED TO TAKE DRIVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER (8 MILES AWAY) AS THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG AS WELL AS POSSIBLY HONORING THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY (60,000 - I'M AT 62,000!). ON THE DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP I LOST ABILITY TO ACCELERATE BRIEFLY. LUCKILY, I TOOK THE SIDE STREETS AS WAS ABLE TO PULL OUT OF TRAFFIC. THE DEALER STILL HAS MY CAR AND IS NOT FINDING ANY ISSUES. THEY CLAIMED THEY DROVE IT EXTENSIVELY TO SEE IF THE ISSUE COULD BE REPLICATED. ALTHOUGH MY ODOMETER SHOWED THEY DROVE IT ABOUT 10 MILES TOTAL. THEY WANTED TO RETURN IT TO ME BUT I INSISTED THEY KEEP IT ANOTHER DAY AND DRIVE IT. SO, THAT'S WHERE I'M AT. IF THEY DON'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG, I'M LEFT WITH A CAR THAT I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING WITH MY WIFE OR TWO KIDS (AGE 6 AND 8). WE'RE HEADED ON VACATION THIS WEEKEND (180 MILES AWAY) AND I'M GOING TO HAVE TO RENT A CAR.

WE WERE TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE I-20 IN GEORGIA AT APPROX 75MPH WHEN SUDDENLY THE CAR JUST LOST ALL FORWARD MOMENTUM. MY HUSBAND ATTEMPTED TO GIVE THE CAR MORE GAS, BUT WITH THE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, HE NARROWLY MANGED TO GET US ACROSS THE LANES OF TRAFFIC TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD WITHOUT BEING HIT. WE WERE ALMOST REAR ENDED SEVERAL TIMES, AND ATTEMPTING TO CROSS THE LANES OF THE HIGHWAY WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. ONCE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, HE CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE WAS A VISIBLE OR NOTICEABLE REASON THE CAR ACTED THIS WAY AND CHECKED ALL FLUIDS- INCLUDING THE TRANSMISSION FLUID. AFTER CHECKING EVERYTHING HE COULD, WE RESUMED TRAVEL, WITH THE CAR BEING A BIT SLUGGISH THEN RESUMING TRAVEL AS NORMAL. WE LOOKED ONLINE TO SEE IF OTHERS HAD THIS PROBLEM, AND READ THAT OLDER NISSANS HAD A REPLACEMENT RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSIONS- BUT NOT THE NEWER ONE. THIS EVEN HAS TERRIFIED ME, OUR DAUGHTER AND MY HUSBAND WITH HOW DANGEROUS A SITUATION WE WERE PUT IN DUE TO THE DEFECT OF THE TRANSMISSION.
