when slowing to a stop after a long (2 hours) period of driving at highway speeds, the car could not then accelerate after a stop. the rpms would rev to between 2-3,000 but the car would not accelerate for a few seconds. in intersections, this was dangerous because it could cause an accident. the car only has 500 miles on it. an initial trip to the dealership said that there were no codes and no problem. on the return trip, after an extended highway drive, the same problem occurred. the car is unsafe to drive in its current condition and is going back to the dealership tomorrow.

nissan rouge 2010 - it has only been 5 months since i bought a brand new rogue 2010 from victory nissan chesapeake. i received a recall card from them regarding a throttle noise. i took my car for change oil and the nissan service did a reprogram to eliminate the noise. the noise had lessened. thinking that it is a brand new car, i did an observation and waited for my second change oil and complained about the noise in my car again and the brake that felt like it's losing a thread when you step on it. after my change oil, i was told that my transmission needs to be replaced. however, the dealer has to order it and will call me back in 2-3 days. a week had passed and i did not receive a call. i called nissan usa to complain about the service and i have been driving this car knowing that there is a problem and have complained about the break and the transmission. i called back again and the service agent just told me that the transmission is not yet in. i was driving in the rain when the accelerator just kept going even if i was not pressing on it. i was concerned and took the car back to the dealer and was given a rental car. i bought a fully loaded car but was given a lemon car. i could've been dead by now if i am still driving that car for who knows what will happen next if the accelerator and brake will not be controlled. i kept calling nissan but i did not receive any response. one of the sales in the dealer told me that this was the 3rd rogue 2010 transmission problem that was reported in the same place. a very unsat costumer service and dealer services by letting an unsafe car to be on the road!

after a period of highway driving (1+ hour), vehicle will not accelerate after coming to a stop. when stopping the first time after driving at highway speeds, vehicle will accelerate s-l-o-w-l-y when gas pedal is pressed to floor. rpm's will increase to 2000-3000 and the vehicle will reach approximately 15 mph after 5-8 seconds. once the vehicle reaches approximately 15 mph it seems to "kick into gear" and will accelerate normally from that point. this event happens virtually every time after driving at highway speed for a period of time and stopping after exiting the highway, or stopping on the highway due to traffic congestion.

over the weekend of october 16th, i drove my 2010 nissan rogue from md to williamsburg, va and back. my family was almost killed in a car crash because the nissan rogue failed to properly accelerate on a busy intersection. for the rest of the weekend it failed to accelerate a total of 4 more times coming from a complete stop. if i drive the car for more than 2 hours on highway and come to a complete stop, the car will not accelerate properly, it takes about 5-6 seconds to reach a speed of about 10mph. the next day, the vehicle was working fine. i took the vehicle to the nissan dealer and they could not duplicate the problem. they were not getting any codes from the computer. they kept the vehicle overnight and had a technician drive it back and forth from work to home and back to work but they could not duplicate the problem. after checking the odometer, the computer�s mph average speed and the area where the car was driven, turns out that the vehicle was not driven on highway for more than 2 hours, it was stop and go driving. the vehicle has to be driven on highway continuously for more than 2 hours for this problem to occur. this is a serious safety hazard. i never know if my family will loose their lives on the next busy intersection. there are many reports on the internet about this problem taking place al over the nation. nissan has not posted any bulletins or recalls in this matter but something has to be done now before there is a casualty on the road. do we have to wait for someone to die before nissan acknowledges that there is a serious problem?

from day one i have had nothing but problems out of my rogue. it won't crank half the time and then it started stalling on the interstate. while trying to go over hills or trying to accelerate the rpms would rev up but the vehicle would lose speed. i would start out going over a hill doing 75 mph and by the time i reached the top of the hill i was doing 60 mph. the car actually stalled in the middle of a four way intersection and after being driven for 30 or so miles the vehicle would start missing on the interstate. i brought the vehicle to the dealership and the transmission was replaced. this has solved the speed control/stalling problem, but the new transmission doesn't want to shift gears. i was told this was an upgraded transmission with two gears and that it would shift different from a regular transmission.

2010 rogue has repeated problems with acceleration. specifically from a stopped position. and when on a hill, if you are stopped, it won't accelerate at all, even when pushing driving pedal all the way down to the floor. on top of this, it now will not hold a cruise with cruise control on the interstate. extremely dangerous when attempting to turn left from a stopped position without a green arrow. this is apparently, according to complaints, a very common problem, and there needs to be a recall. have called dealership three times to schedule service and tell them about this major problem only to be told i would get a call back with no call-back. am showing up tomorrow with my car insisting on an answer.

i was driving when i suddenly noticed that the air conditioning was not working properly then the engine spluttered and the vehicle slowed and i had to turn on the hazard lights to prevent an accident. i parked on the roadside when able to and shut off the engine. after a couple of minutes, i restarted the engine and regained speed but the air conditioning was not responsive however within a few minutes the engine spluttered again and had to park and called for roadside assistance. the diagnosis from nissan was that the radiator had a "hole" in it and warranty did not cover as the mileage had exceeded 36,000. i was puzzled why the radiator of a relatively new car without any forewarning would develop this kind of problem and i was not prepared to pay the high repair cost, which convinced there may be something wrong with the radiator from the manufacturer.

my car was parked in the driveway. i had arrived home at 3:30pm on a saturday. the next morning at 10:00am, i went to my car to find that something had exploded inside. there had been a significant amount of fire damage to the front passenger's side, including the glove compartment, the dash, and the location of the airbag. my best guess as to what happened is that the airbag exploded (not deployed), causing a fire, which damaged the electrical system, and caused a lot of cosmetic damage. there is no evidence of the airbag, other than some springs, it does not look like it simply deployed. the insurance company has deemed it a total loss. i feel that this is something that nissan should cover, not me or my insurance company. but i cannot determine what actually happened or how to pursue legal action against them. thankfully, no one was injured. i have no idea why the dire was self-contained, and the entire car didn't explode.

i was going home from work like everyday i drive 40 miles one way at highway speeds and when i left the highway i came to a traffic light so i was waiting there and when the light turned green i pushed on the gas pedal like i normally do and the car would not respond and then started going but very slow i was afraid i was gonna be stuck at that intersection,and then i let go of the gas and pushed the gas again and the car startedgoing like if it was awakening and then it was going normal again,since then that happened 2 more times but the other times were more scary because i was at stop signs and when i tried to go after a complete stop the car was going very slow again and i was lucky that i didn't get hit by oncoming traffic,i contacted the dealer but they wont do anything unless they see the code or their mechanics reproduce the problem

the first incident took place on 06/03/13, the second incident on 08/24/13 and the third incident on 12/22/13. all 3 incidents were road trips where the problem appeared on the interstate after having been driving for about an hour and a half or so. the problem was that when at highway speeds of ~70-80 mph, the vehicle would no longer accelerate even when the gas pedal was pressed to the floor. the first incident happened while the cruise control was engaged but the 2nd and 3rd incidents occurred with and without cruise control engaged. on the 2nd and 3rd incidents, when we exited the highway and came to a traffic light we also experienced an acceleration issue when starting from a stopped position. in these instances, i pushed the gas pedal but the car did not move forward, for a couple of seconds, and then sputtered before finally accelerating normally. after the second incident i researched the problem, online, and saw numerous posts with other rogue owners having similar if not identical problems. i planned to take it to the dealership but, since the problem never occurred on local/in-town driving, i procrastinated. after this latest incident i took the vehicle to our dealer - autonation nissan pembroke pines - on 12/24/2013. i reported the problem to jay, our service advisor, who had a technician check out the car. he said a transmission code, , came up in the diagnostic and they recommended replacement of the transmission. however, nissan instituted a new policy on that date which required the dealership replicate the problem before nissan would authorize the replacement. the dealer could not replicate the problem with local driving and would not allow a tech to take it on a long trip. i called nissan consumer affairs but they were no help. the end result is that i have a car that has not been repaired & that i can't drive on long trips.

is nissan the next toyota?? we were pulling out of a shopping center and the vehicle failed to properly accelerate. the gas pedal was pushed to the floor, acceleration was at minimum and the rpms revved up extremely high. thank goodness no one hit us. finally, the gear caught and all was well. it seemed like the transmission may have slipped. then we got to my parents' home and parked. then we went to move out of park and the gears wouldn't change (automatic cvt transmission). we had the vehicle towed to the nearest certified nissan repair facility. in the meanwhile, i located information on nissan's website regarding the warranty on the transmission and found that nissan extended the warranty from 5 years/60,000 miles to 10 years/120,000 miles for 'customer satisfaction' purposes and here is the information about that http://www.nissanassist.com/web/cvt/programdetails.php?menu=9 and the vehicles that are included in the issue are located here http://www.nissanassist.com/web/cvt/vehicles.php?menu=11 so the dealership calls us on june 23 to advise they could not replicate the issue with the transmission and the problem with getting the vehicle out of park was an electronic issue. i am not a mechanic but it does seem strange that we would have experienced the first issue, then the vehicle wouldn't come out of park? i spoke with regional specialists at nissan north america and was told that if the mechanics cannot replicate, then no repair will be authorized under the warranty and that the likely cause of my issue was dirty transmission fluid. i feel this is a huge safety issue because if you pull out into traffic, expecting your vehicle to go and it doesn't, someone is eventually going to get seriously injured!

first off, there was not an accident...but there surely would be if this car were to be driven in its present state. essentially, catastrophic failure of the cvt (transmission), so that, when sitting at a stop light, stepping on the accelerator would result in increase in rpm but no forward motion at first. it might eventually engage, but operation is totally unpredictable. even though this is a well known issue and nissan did double the warrantee they failed to notify owners claiming that because it wasn't a recall, it was not required. vehicle is currently 10,000 miles outside the *new* warrantee mileage limit, but had owner been notified about this impending failure, repairs could have been effected inside the warrantee period. nissan has declined to offer any assistance whatsoever, but does hope that we have "a nice day". will it take loss of life or limb for nissan to "do the right thing"?
