My car makes a loud rattling noise when I accelerate, it does not matter up hill down hill every time I put my foot on the gas you can hear me coming down the st, if I take my foot off the gas it stops but its been doing it since I bought the car 3 years ago but now its much worse and the fact that the dealer wants 500 just to look at it is killing my pockets. Then I see that I am not the only person with this problem. Please help.
2013 Nissan Rogue transmission complaints
Page 10 of 12: complaints 251 to 280 of 314, newest first, as owners wrote them.
August 2nd 2016 I bought my car from farris mottor in jefferson city tn in oct/nov 2016 to deliver mail in. The conversion kit put into my car did not modify the engine or transmission in any way therefore my warranty was not voided. The car ran well for about 6 months then one day on route in a level ground neighborhood I was driving down the street servicing the mailboxes, I stopped at one and when I went to speed back up my car wouldn't accelerate. I had the gas pedal to the floor and the car would barely move. The RPM's didn't even rev up, it was just silence, then after a few seconds my car would pick up and move. This went on for the rest of the day and everyday after that. It is worse when going up hill, instead of it picking up and moving after a few seconds it doesn't move and instead starts to roll backwards. All this also happens in reverse and still no RPM's. So I took it to farris about three times and got nothing out of them, and when I took it to the nissan dealership they said according to my warranty any work to the vehicle or even doing diagnostics would have to be approved by farris which they did not. So I went back to farris again and had a tech ride with me so I could replicate what was going on. He observed and agreed with what was happening but said he didn't believe it was the transmission but it had something to do with the engine. And he also seemed to blame my profession for the way the car is acting due to the way I drive but if that were true then everyone at the post office would be having the same problems with their vehicles, sorry but that's not the case. Please look into this because my car is my main priority to take care of my family. Here is a link of other people who have had this problem with this vehicle.

I have a 2013 nissan rogue that the transmission just died on me. The car has 103 k miles and died on me in the middle lane of a 3 lane highway. I was doing 70 MPH and the car speed dropped to less than 5 MPH. I had my foot on the pedal for a good minute but the car won't go over 5 MPH. I finally managed to safely get out of the highway and the car just died on the side of road. Towed the car to the nissan dealer and was told the CVT transmission needs repaired. They know that older models were covered under a nissan extended warranty for the CVT transmission,but my 2013 rogue was not covered and there was nothing they can do. This car is dangerous to drive. The speed on this car should not just drop from 70 MPH to 5 MPH in a matter of seconds, it is dangerous. Nissan is aware of this problem but won't admit it. Can someone please look into this. There's a lot of people out there driving this cars and not know how dangerous they are. Nissan needs to fix this issue before someone loses their life over this.

Complete loss of acceleration! ! Almost caused a wreck!! Very dangerous. No codes. Me ring onto interstate and lost acceleration. Had it towed to shop couldn't get issue to duplicate. On way home it did it again. Still no code.
Failed CVT transmission on a vehicle I have owned less than 4 years. Vehicle was moving at 70mph when it began to lose speed and rpms increased. By the time I was able to safely exit the interstate I was moving at 20mph and over 4000rpms. Mechanic has confirmed the transmission needs to be replaced, as is common with this vehicle.
I had stopped briefly to pay a toll and when I was ready to drive the car hesitated and the RPM went to 4 and it started to go slowly then the engine light came on. Drove slowly to nearest repair shop and the codes that came up were p0744 and p1740. Had to tow my vehicle home at the cost of $360.
The CVT (variable transmission) is losing power on the highway and I was suddenly unable to go any faster. This is very unsafe. The transmission went into "safe mode" due to overheating. This is a known issue by nissan as they gave an extended warranty for this same issue to all 2008 to 2010 rogue owners. However they no longer provide this and instead their fix is to charge for a different trans oil cooler for this 2013 model. If the CVT is still having issues the fix should be covered by nissan not me.
As with many years before , the nissan rogue has had transmission safety issues.while driving in the left lane on rt. 95 in florida the vehicle (once hot) almost completely shuts down. The power is all but lost , forcing us to get off the roadway before we are hit at highway speeds from behind.this has happened on several occasions over the past two years. Dealer says faulty transmission is to blame and must be replaced. I'm in the process of having the trans. Replaced now .I feel that since nissan has known about this issue for 10 years now, a recall should have happened long before this and prior to someone being seriously injured or worse.please advise ..
Car loses acceleration on warm days and driving on the highway for 30 minutes plus. Pressing on the gas pedal to accelerate only causes RPM's to increase but the MPH of the vehicle does not. After pulling the vehicle over and given a chance to cool down, normal operations resume until the fluids in the CVT drive heater up again. This has happened several times and is very dangerous. If you are in a bad position on the highway and need to accelerate for some reason anc cannot, this can be a very dangerous situation.
Transmission "slips ? " during highway driving.the vehicle slows drastically and suddenly without warning causing a risk of getting hit from behind. Must pull over to the side of the road quickly.feel very unsafe using this vehicle on the highway.I've noticed on the nissan blog , that this has been an ongoing problem for almost a decade without a recall. Please help..
Driving down interstate 75 on a trip. Cvt transmission started whining and no matter how hard I pressed on the gas car would not increase speed. Vehicle does not have 80,000 miles. Repair technician said he has seen several problems with valve body over heating and CVT transmission coolant mixing with transmission fluid. Called nissan corporate and had a case opened. Claim was denied saying they have no recalls or problems with CVT of the rogue vehicle. Driving anywhere especially on a major interstate with this issue is a serious safety issue.
Bought this 2013 rogue about 18 months ago. I travel for work so I have put alot of miles in a short time. I have had all the maintenance done by a local shop. Recently on a long four hour drive on the interstate. The car would not shift down and went into its safe mode. I could not even get it to back out of a slanted parking lot that I had pulled in to drop my wife off. I had to let it cool for 30 minutes. I took it to the dealer today and they said it was a known problem with these CVT transmissions and it would need a transmission cooler and valve block installed. They quoted me a cost of $2600.00 for the repair. I think this is ridiculous that I should be charged this when there own service technician stated that nissan has released several faulty transmissions and it is hard to get nissan to do anything about it. I tried calling the nissan affairs. They are suppose to call me back but from everything I have read I do not think they will do anything.
Vehicle lost all acceleration on a busy highway - very dangerous.
Was traveling down the highway on cruise control and it keep turn off. I pressed down on the accelerator the car does not accelerate no matter what!!! And that's when the cars behind me start honking, cussing me but there's nothing I can do
I was merging onto the highway going ~50 MPH. Went to accelerate and the accelerater did not seem to have the same tension. Then all lights came on the dash (check engine, oil, battery etc) then there was no acceleration. Pulled to the shoulder, turned the car off, back on and everything seemed fine. Cruise control was on, but not active as I was merging, and sport mode was on. Since the incident when on cruise control I will feel the transmission 'slip' from time to time as well. However I could not recreate the issue of the car stalling.I called the dealer and they said if I could not recreate the problem, there was nothing they could do either. It looks like people are having similar problems and hopefully this can get resolved.

When the car warms up the vehicle will not accelerate past 40mph or climb small hills greater than 40 MPH. Vehicle will act normally but when you get off the freeway, it loses power and will not accelerate. Big safety issue when traveling on highway and you need speed to pass or even keep up with traffic. Found online that this is a common problem and I believe there needs to be a recall for safety concerns
Cvt transmission over heats and causes engine to go into limp mode at times of heavy traffic on interstate or hills when ambient temperature is above 85f. Has created a dangerous situation in traffic where I have had difficulty getting to slow lane. I believe it's a safety hazard. Contacted nissan and they do not want to acknowledge the problem. This vehicle has had this problem since new. I've reported the problem many times to dealers. Consumer affairs was contacted, with no resolution.
While driving on the freeway, the car lost all acceleration and power, causing the vehicle to drop its speed to below 10 MPH. We were unable to move the vehicle off the freeway due to lack of a shoulder, when we finally were able to get safely off the freeway, the car smelled of burning transmission fluid. After the car sat for 30 minutes, we were able to make a speed of no more than 25 MPH to the nearest town. We took the car to our local nissan dealer and was told that there is a know CVT transmission problem in as where the transmission oil was overheated causing the car to go into safe mode. Nissan issued a service bulletin for this problem and the fix is to have a transmission oil cooler installed at a cost of $1200.00, in which we have to pay. This has been a known issue on this vehicle with this transmission since before 2009. We were almost hit on numerous occasions from the rear by vehicles that were approaching us at 60 MPH.
Traveling via the interstate fro ky to ga at about 70 MPH. Vehicle lost power and would not accelerate beyond 35 MPH. Dangerous as other vehicles traveling at 70 MPH or above came close to rear ending my vehicle. Other vehicles dangerously tailgated. Obvious recall issue as there is a history/pattern of this behavior in like vehicles and yet no recall issued, very disappointing!
Transmission failed at 62,135 miles. Overheated. No prior problems or repairs. Dealership recommendation is replace transmission and add a transmission cooler. Sold in georgia operated in georgia and needs a transmission cooler to continue to operate in georgia?! Escalated to nissan regional but will not cover the cost of the repair. Nissan has had an endemic problem with prior years across multiple models with this exact problem with CVT. This is clearly a continuing design defect. Vehicle lost power and speed suddenly on the interstate. Almost in an accident as trucks ran up on the car till it could be pulled over safely.
