I was driving along at 50 mh and all the sudden drops down to 30 mp and even thought I push peddle to floor it won't go above 40 mh and starts trying to cut off this has happened a few times to me as well as my mom who drove my car. This is a serious safety issue that needs to be addressed ..

My car is unable to accelerate after stopping. This is incredibly dangerous as I have had close calls for being in several accidents. I am scared to death to drive this vehicle anywhere but I have no choice as this is my only vehicle. I purchased the vehicle in january/february 2020 and have children that are in the car with me. I have never feared for our safety in any vehicle that I have owned previously. The RPM's also go high and switches gears only when I let off the gas. These are problems that have every time that I drive the vehicle. As a single mom I'm at my whitt's end and need this problem fixed for the safety of my family.

Was on the highway again and the car once over 80 MPH, stop accelerating in the middle of the highway in major traffic and decreased to 20 MPH and starting shaking again and stopped. The car would not move and I was almost plowed by a semi. I called nissan before because this same thing happened last july 2018, and there have been complaints by others. They advised I needed to take it to nissan and they might assist with whatever could be wrong, but they made it seem as if it was nothing. Once again there was no power coming through the car, no sensor lights came on, the car smelled like it was going to catch fire and it would only excel and not move before it cut off. Luckily I was able to get it pushed over on the main highway.

When accelerating into traffic, after a dead stop in an intersection waiting to turn, or when changing lanes the car would just stop accelerating. It would not move for several seconds. Three times traffic had to slow to wait for my car to move. Nissan dealer service said it was brake switch failure. When replaced the problem stopped.

Taking a short day trip, about a 2 and a half hour drive, my car stopped accelerating about an hour in. Gas pedal to the floor and nothing happened. On the way back home it was worse we had to stop almost every 10-20 miles to let the car rest. I just had this transmission replaced about a month ago. I would stop to maybe cool down the transmission for about 15-30 minutes, then it acts like nothing was wrong. It also has a whining noise like something is winding up.

Driving on I-76 on cruise control at 75 MPH when vehicle starts to run rpms in excess of 4k while losing acceleration. Pull over and turn off vehicle. Check under the hood, slight burning smell. Wait about twenty minutes, turn vehicle on, won't accelerate at all. Wait some more, drives for a little while, then high acceleration with loss of speed again, this time never going over 60 MPH. I'm lucky I was not rear ended on the interstate and killed with my two year old son.

When the CVT transmission gets hot the power from engine to transmission begins to reduce. This safety feature leads to massive fuel consumption as well as complete loss of power while driving. This has caused myself to be stuck in the middle of intersections on multiple occasions. This "safety feature" didn't start doing this until 50 miles past the warranty expired. At first it would take hours of driving before this would happen and it seems like each time it happened it took less and less driving time before it would happen again. Currently my rogue is around 150k miles and I can't go more than 20 miles before it happens. I took the rogue into shops for a full tune-up every30k miles trying to be sure it last for as long as possible, so I know it isn't an issue of neglect. I have researched online trying to find a solution to the problem and all I have found are thousands of other owners with the same issue. Some owners have had the problem begin as early as the 10k mark. Since the introduction of the CVT transmission every vehicle it is used in has this problem. Nissan needs to address this problem before it causes a death from pure neglect on their part. I've owned 4 nissan vehicles and loved them all but his is the first one I had that didn't make it past 100k miles before having a major issue.
