2015 Nissan Rogue

I was driving down the tollway at night and alone when my car stopped accelerating but my RPM's went up to 5,000. I managed to pull over and shut it off . Tried again, it would not go. Tried 3 x and it finally went. I shut off the air and drive slowly so I could safely complete my trip. When I went to the Nissan dealer. They told me it was the transmission. That is is a know condition on this model. The service writer actually told me these keep them in business. Apparently the transmission cooler is too small and they overheat. They told want almost $6,000 to repair the vehicle that is probably not even worth that anymore. How can they not have a recall on a know defect? If you google it there are numerous service bulletins yet no recall for repair. I am so disappointed. In this difficult time of our lives I am without a car and left with a huge repair. As of today the car is at the dealer. Jim M'Lady Nissan in Crystal Lake, IL. I do not have the bill, we have just spoke over the phone.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER EXITING A HIGHWAY RAMP AT 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE JERKED AND STALLED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMAL FUNCTION SOON AFTER EXPERIENCING THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

ON MONDAY FEBRUARY 22 2021[XXX] STARTED THE ROGUE AND BEGAN TO BACK UP OUT OF OUR HOME DRIVEWAY ([XXX]). SHE THEN STOPPED AND PUT THE ROGUE INTO PARK/SHIFTED INTO PARK/P, AND CHECKED TO MAKE SEE THE BACK DOOR OF THE HOUSE WAS LOCKED. THE DOOR WAS LOCKED, WHEN SHE TURNED AROUND AND WENT OUT OUR GATE, APPROX 10 SECONDS AFTER PARKING THE ROGUE, THE ROGUE WAS SLOWLY ROLLING BACKWARDS OUT OF OUR PARKING SPACE. [XXX] WAS ABLE TO CATCH UP TO THE ROGUE AND GET IN AND APPLY THE BRAKE, BUT NOT BEFORE IT HAD ROLLED APPROX. 40 FT, STRIKING OUR NEIGHBORS FENCE. THE ROGUE WAS NOT FULLY IN REVERSE, AND NOT FULLY UNDER THE POWER OF THE ENGINE. LAUREN WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CATCH UP TO THE ROGUE UNDER THOSE CONDITIONS. IT ROLLED SLOWLY, AND SHE WAS ABLE TO CATCH UP IN DRESS WORK SHOES WITH HEELS. WE HAVE TRIED TO REPLICATE THIS BUT CANNOT. THE ROGUE IS SCHEDULED FOR INSPECTION AT HUDSON NISSAN OF N. CHARLESTON SC THURSDAY FEBRUARY 25TH. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

WHILE DRIVING MY 2015 NISSAN ROGUE ON A BUSY HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH, ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE SPEED DROPPED AND WOULD NOT GO OVER 60. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO NEAREST REPAIR SHOP WITH HAZARD LIGHTS ON. BY THE TIME I DROVE INTO REPAIR, THE SPEED WAS DOEN TO 45 MPH. THE REPAIR SHOP SAID IT WAS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. I HAD THE NISSAN TOWED TO A TRANSMISSION SHOP. THEY SAID I WOULD NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. BEFORE I AUTHORIZED THE TRANSMISSION SHOP TO REPAIR, I CHECKED FOR RECALLS OR ISSUES WITH NISSAN DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS AN ISSUE, BUT THAT IT INCLUDED 2015 NISSAN ROGUES MANUFACTURED UNTIL MARCH 2015. MINE VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN JULY 2015. MY PROBLEM WAS EXACTLY THE SAME ISSUE FROM THEIR "ISSUE" WHERE THEY HAD EXPANDED THE WARRANTY FOR THE TRANSMISSION ISSUE.

WAS DRIVING ALONG VEHICLE IN MOTION ON WAY HOME FROM WORK ON A FALL EVENING THAT GETS DARK PRETTY QUICKLY. SLOWED DOWN AT A STOP LIGHT AND THE TRANSMISSION SUDDENLY DIED WHILE GOING OVER AN INCLINE. VEHICLE REFUSED TO MOVE FORWARD AND ALMOST ROLLED BACK INTO THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME. THIS HAPPENED ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. IT WAS PRETTY DANGEROUS BEING STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF A MAJOR INTERSECTION WHILE IT WAS DARK. HAD TO GET POLICE TO BLOCK THE RIGHT LANE TO AVOID BEING REAR ENDED. EVENTUALLY GOT THE VEHICLE TOWED.

NOTICED TRANSMISSION SLIPPING WHEN GOING INTO FIRST GEAR, SPECIFICALLY WHEN TAKING OFF FROM AT A COMPLETE STOP. IF IN ECO MODE IT IS WORSE. SO FAR ONLY DOING IT IN 1ST GEAR, WORRIED IT WILL GIVE OUT ON HIGHWAY LIKE I HAVE SEEN OTHERS. TOOK TO NISSAN TO HAVE DIAGNOSED RECENTLY AND TOLD I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION WITH JUST OVER 110K MILES. THEY DO NOT WANT TO COVER IT AS IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THERE ARE RECALLS IN OTHER ROGUES FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE, OF COURSE NOT MINE.

MY VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS APPROX 65,000 MILES ON IT AND RECENTLY STARTED MAKING LOUD NOISE WHEN ACCELERATING ABOVE 45 MPH. TOOK TO NISSAN DEALER AND INFORMED A NEW TRANSMISSION IS NEEDED. NO RECALL IS LISTED FOR THIS ISSUE DESPITE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS POSTED WITH SIMILAR ISSUE ON VARIOUS WEBSITES. NISSAN WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE PROBLEM WHEN I SPOKE TO CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT.
