Transmission failure was diagnosed. The car stopped accelerating on me on winding back roads putting myself and others at risk. Nissan told me there are no recalls so they will not repair it. This is the second issue I had with the car, however the first was not related to safety concerns. This one most certainly is! My life was at risk as a curvy road has blind spots other vehicles will not expect a car to be broken down when they come around a curve. This is due to the 2013 Nissan Rogue Transmission failure my SUV only has 97,000 miles
2013 Nissan Rogue acceleration complaints
Page 2 of 4: complaints 11 to 40 of 90, newest first, as owners wrote them.
There has been a issue with the transmission for 5 years at least and as of 2 weeks ago, the transmission completely went out.
Vehicle does not accelerate once running for a period of time despite pressing down on gas pedal.
The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while driving 60-70 MPH, for approximately 30 minutes, the RPM revved up however, the vehicle started decelerating independently and was making abnormal whining sounds. There was no warning light illuminated. The accelerator pedal was depressed but the vehicle failed to respond and continued to decelerate. The contact veered to the side of the road for a moment. The contact continued driving however, the failure reoccurred after driving for 30 minutes. The contact stated that the failure had been reoccurring increasingly. The dealer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that she needed to pay for a diagnostic test and repair. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.
I was driving down the highway from the airport headed back home, and the car started to lose power. My foot was pressing the pedal to accelerate but the RPMS went past 3-4K and the speed kept going down. No engine lights showed up on the dash or any type of warning. I pulled over on the brim of the highway, I called someone who said to let it sit for a while and try again - i checked my radiator fluid - it was fine and didn't over heat. All electrical components work - i could barely accelerate. I was able to coast for a while at 60 mph and then when i needed to accelerate nothing happened. I tried to call the dealership today and they said there is no safety recalls - but i can see there is a CVT extended warranty in place, but not until 2014 Nissan rogue. I have a 2013 nissan rogue.
The transmission is going out and the car is less than 10 years old and it just hit 119,817 miles. I looked at the information on the Nissan Rogue's and it states that the manufacturer had a extended warranty on some of their Rogue's transmissions but not all of them for transmission repair, only some of their Rogues, because they apparently build a crappy transmission. I've looked up this extended warranty and any recall notices here but there are none showing. How do we get Nissan to fix their mess? This is ridiculous! I was driving down the interstate with my 9 month old grandson, when my car lost power and started jerking; I had to pull over and wait until the traffic was cleared so I didn't cause an accident. The car wouldn't go any faster the 18 MPH , not a safe place of the older lady and her grandson to be.. stuck on side of the interstate. After giving the car time to sit for awhile, we were able to get going again, but every time the car went over a certain speed, usually over 60 MPH, it would start to jerk again.
Loss of power after driving for an hour or more and going uphill. RPMs will only go to 3000 and unable to accelerate. Driving in heavy traffic going through Salt Lake City interstate 15, had loss of power and was unable to accelerate as traffic slowed and then sped up again. Just returned from the 2245 mile trip and experienced the problem multiple times. One time was parked in a driveway at a slight decline and was unable to back out of the driveway until I waited for the engine to cool off. I did call my local dealer where it was purchased and they told me it was an underlying issue. Will be scheduling a diagnostic check this coming week. No warning lights on dash, just sudden loss of power.
Vehicle loses power/ability to accelerate on longer drives, especially when up/down hills are involved.
When driving in approximately 90* weather on the highway, we lost all power/pickup and the car wouldn't get over approximately 45mph. This was an extreme safety hazard as the road we were on had no breakdown lane. We were eventually able to pull off the highway and let the vehicle cool for about 20 minutes and then we went backroads for the remainder of the drive. This has happened at least 5 additional times, all when driving on the highway in high temps and when the RPMs on the car are higher than 2K consistently. This is so dangerous and I cannot believe that Nissan isn't doing anything to make this safety issue right.
Purchased this car in 2015 from.Nissan dealership. The car randomly loses power when I'm on the highway. It's happened 3 times within the last 3 months. The car smokes a bit when this happens. Took it to my licensed mechanic who's owns a shop and was told my Transmission was fine, the fluids in the car where up to par and he couldn't find anything wrong with the engine. Was told Nissan Rogue has many issues with the CVT and its worth seeing if there are any open recalls on the car. So I checked by vin number and nothing came up. But as I do my research into other owners that have the same make and model as well year of my car, they are having the same issue. Wondering why hasn't this been looked into.
The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while driving approximately 70 mph, the vehicle failed to accelerate while depressing the accelerator pedal. Additionally, while driving the vehicle inadvertently decelerated without warning. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 185,000.
I was driving in the morning, on a somewhat busy road that acts as a small two lane highway that leads to the freeway, and all of a sudden it felt like I had gotten a flat tire and was driving on the rim. No sounds, just dramatic loss of power. I was able to pull over on a very narrow shoulder. Inspected tires and all were perfectly fine. I waited a few, turned car on which started just fine. Put car into gear but absolutely no engagement!! Nothing. With foot pedal to the floor, just didn't move. Rpm's were normal along with speed odometer. This was not only a scary situation to be in knowing that while in motion this vehicle lost all ability to function but a huge safety concern for me and others. I truly hope this doesn't happen anymore! Something needs to be done about this. Not okay nissan not okay
This vehicle hesitates when accelerating which can be a deadly hazard when crossing an intersection or anywhere driving. This problem is very dangerous and nissan needs to repair this potentially deadly problem.
Driving on highway us-90 coming home from new orleans to gulfport. My cars cruise control had stopped working 45 mintues to an hour after I got onto us-49 my check light came on I pressed my accelerate pedtal to the floor an the only thing it did was raise my rpms to almost 6. Me an my child in the back seat were almost hit in the rear by an 18 wheeler because my vehicle had trouble with the transmission. When I got back to gulfport ms I stop at a auto-zone an they put it on the digital device an 3-4 codes came up the turque converter was bad in my car. I know from reading on the internet bulletins that nissan is aware of the problem an hasnt done anyting about it.
The vehicle is not shifting correctly on highway or city, the rpms fluctuate when hitting the gas and and speed does not match the rpms. Which getting to 60mph the car starts to shake and will down shift and which makes the vehicle harder to accelerate and in some cases wont accelerate at all even with the rpms continuing to raise. I have gotten it looked at by certified mechanics and the said they cannot tell the issue especially with no warning lights and no faulty codes. When sitting at a stand still the rpms continue to raise over 2000 even with the vehicle in park.
Vehicle will not get up to speed when driven for a 45 minute period of time and won't allow me to pick.up to state speed I noticed there's been complaints about this issue due to a low temperature governor on the vehicle and that makes it dangerous for the other people traveling due to that issue I was on the interstate 25 traveling south
Driving at highway speeds for about 40 minutes when the vehicle loses power. I stepped on the gas pedal and nothing happened. I had to pull off the highway to avoid getting rear ended.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 nissan rogue. The contact stated while his daughter was driving 65 MPH, the vehicle independently decelerated to 35 MPH and failed to accelerate. There were no warning lights illuminated. The driver pulled over, restarted the vehicle, and the vehicle drove as designed. The vehicle was taken to thruway nissan (79 ny-17k, newburgh, ny 12550, (845) 562-1000) to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the CVT transmission and external oil cooler needed to be replaced as per tsb 16-090. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 130,650.
On our return trip from miramar beach, fl to our home in vestavia hills, al the car's speed abruptly reduced to approximately 45 MPH after driving at approximately 60 MPH on a state highway (for approximately 1 1/2 hours) but the vehicle would not respond to the accelerator other than to "vroom" when I pressed it with my foot. The problem with acceleration did not correct itself during the remaining 75 miles of the trip. We also smelled an odor like burned oil when we stopped. Very dangerous as all other cars passed us on this alabama state highway and the subsequent distance on interstate-65. Based on what we have read on the internet, including settlements of class action law suits and extended warranty awards for earlier model years, we believe the problem is related to the nissan's CVT transmission and it's factory settings.
I've had numerous problems with this car. While driving with my family on the highway for over 1.5 hrs. The car would not accelerate above 60 MPH. Another time while highway driving on the oh turnpike 1 hour away from home I lost acceleration while going uphill and coasted to an area to stop. While I was stopped the car smoked and it would not start until after 30 minutes. I was able to make it to a mechanic who informed it may be my transmission and he advised to not go over 60 MPH and to take the back roads home.
When driving my 2013 nissan rogue further than 30 miles going speeds of 60mph or greater the rpms race out of control, the car dangerously reduces speeds on freeway even while the accelerator is still pressed. I have to turn off car on the side of the freeway for 10-15 mins before trying to drive again, only to have the speeds reduce and rpms race out of control again. If you are trying to go up hill for a short distances or go up hill on entrances ramps, exit ramps, or up hill on bridges there is the same lag in transmission. The rpms race out of control and rogue dangerously reduces speeds. There is also a loud whining noise when you press accelerator beyond 60mph or going up hills, ramps, or bridges. I'm frustrated with nissan they know about this issues with this model 2013 nissan rogue. They've even extended the transmission warranty for 2008-2010 with the same issue just under a different name. They also acknowledge its a problem for models 2008-2013 through there 2015 nissan service bulletin. My frustration is nissan wants me to pay thousands for a known problematic safety issue with these models and years. But refuse to do so. If they can extend the CVT transmission warranty for the 2008-2010 they should also extend the ctv warranty for the 2013 model that's having the same issues with the CVT sensor and valve. I've only had my 2013 rogue since 08/2019. The rogue was 'fixed' once but all was done is transmission fluid was changed in 08/2019. Now it's one year later and same exact issues are occurring and they are refusing to fix again as a customer satisfaction.
Transmission needs replaced due to CVT problems which nissan is aware of and has never issued a recall. Some issues include: loud/whining noises when accelerating, difficulty accelerating, sudden loss of power, and increased RPM even when speed is decelerating.
During a 600 mile road trip on interstate and 2 lane highways, our 2013 nissan rouge began having acceleration issues after about 4 hours of driving. Car would not accelerate past 60 MPH even with gas pedal pushed all way. This would happen several more times. We found a mechanic in a small town who could not identify any specific problem. In a larger town the nissan dealership was closed so we took our car to the local tire and oil change to check fluids etc, no issues were found but we went ahead and had oil and filters changed. Problem occurred one more time on our way to our destination. We did not travel on highways for a few days. About 5 hours on our way back home we had the same problem and could not accelerate on the interstate beyond 55 MPH, even worse on hills. We pulled over and allowed car to rest for about 45 minutes. We managed to get home. This problem did occur once or twice over the years during daily city driving but never to this extent. Our normal day to day driving does not require highway/freeway driving.
I was on the highway with no warning the car started to lose power. When I hit the gas the RPM went up but no power . Fortunately I was able to pull off the highway and avoid getting hit. I turned the car off and back on the engine light came on but when put in drive /gear the car wouldn't move . I had to have it towed to my home 30 minutes away. The mechanic looked at it, the code was for speed sensor. Now looking for a mechanic to fix it . I easily could have been in an accident .
When driving the vehicle for 2 hours or more it looses speed. I was driving back from tenesse to chicago and it started loosing RPM. I started loosing speed and had issue going up hill. Rpm wouldn't go higher than 2. I was in a 70 mile open road. Eventually I had to pull over as I kept loosing speed. I googled the issue and saw complaints in sites about the same issue. I waited 10 minutes turned it on and it ran fine. 2 hours later I had the same issue. This is a risk especially for people who have families like myself.
My daughter was driving my car 4 days ago with heat about 90 degrees. The engine light came on and unable to accelerate even with foot on gas pedal. She was able to pull over and let the car rest for several hours and was able to get home safely. My local mechanic said code po744 torque converter clutch circuit needs repair. I brought to nissan dealership today and report no recalls (which I know is incorrect) as also 500,000 vehicles are affected. If nissan does not pay to fix these obvious CVT transmission defects, I will never purchase or recommend anyone waste a penny on this bs company. Never again! Why isn't us protecting our consumers against this unacceptable product?!
As I am driving at highway speed with my cruise control on, it will all of the sudden drop acceleration and shuts off the cruise control. I can push the gas all the way to the floor and it won't do anything. This has happened to me on several occasions. I pull off the road and turn the car off and then back on but it still will barley go or sometimes it will get to a max of about 60 MPH but the RPM will rev to 5000. Usually when I get to where I'm going (to work, very late) and my car sits all day then it seems fine on the way home.
When accelerating the vehicle it will stall even while on the interstate and I did a google search that stated this issue is common to most make and models-
Would not accelerate forward or reverse with no warning while driving or from a stationary position
Car will stop accelerating when driving on the freeway for over an hour. This has happened about 10 times now. It only had about 50,000 miles on it the first time it happened. Several independent body shops could not detect the problem. In viewing other complaints, sounds like it's the transmission. Nissan needs to recall 2013 nissan rogues for this problem!
