Cvt transmission was the issue all along I bought my 2013 in december of 2017 had it for a few weeks and the engine lights comes on. Call the place where I got it to tell them I was bringing back. Then next day it was gone off. February it came back on had my mechanic look at it couldn't find anything wrong. A few weeks more I noticed it was hesitanting but it stopped quickly. 3 weeks ago the engine light came back on my mechanic said it's the motor mount sensor I replaced it. A month before this my car wouldn't go into park so I replaced the shift gear. Both shift gear and motor sensor valve costing around 800.driving to iowa on the highway my car struggled going up steep roads making it very dangerous in front of 18 wheeler trucks. Now the engine light back on went to my mechanic and a transmission specialist and they said it's the CVT transmission. I've had this vehicle 6 months nissan you need to do a recall on 2013 rogue with these CVT transmissions people buy vehicles trusting they will have for awhile . I'm paying a note on this car for another 4 years and don't know what I'm going to do nissan assist your consumers with this problem
2013 Nissan Rogue transmission complaints
Page 8 of 12: complaints 191 to 220 of 314, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Transmission stop working, when you put in drive or reverse , it does not move at all! I paid 24000.00 ( I bought new one)!
I was driving on the highway on a trip out of town when my car began decelerating and would not accelerate. I immediately took it to nissan where they advised I needed a new transmission for $4200. My car only had $94,000 miles and I've never missed a service through nissan. The experience was incredibly scary and has caused me anxiety.
Multiple CVT failures while driving at highway speeds causing near collision. Cvt total failures requiring replace of CVT (25,000 mi) and valve body and manifold (~60,000). Manufacturing defect still exists in nissan CVT but warranty extension only exist for older models. "2003-2010 vehicles equipped with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) also have a 10-year /120,000 mile CVT limited warranty extension." blatantly obvious the problem remains in the CVT causing loss of acceleration at highway speeds.
While driving on the interstate, my rogue started slowing down with no warning. I was doing 70 MPH and on cruise control. The rpms went to 4000 and I took it off cruise and pressed the accelerator but it kept getting slower. I was lucky to work my way to the right and get off the interstate but had to stop at the bottom of the ramp. As I pressed the gas to go , I could not move and was almost rear ended. I had the accelerator to the floor but still it wouldn't go then finally took off roughly. I turned it off at the gas station then restarted it and tried the gas. It was a little hesitant but it evened out. This has happened twice. My rogue has 56000 miles on it. I bought it with under 20000
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 nissan rogue. While driving approximately 60 MPH approaching an incline, the rpms increased between 3,000 and 4,000 as the vehicle decelerated. There was no warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to autonation nissan pembroke pines (8890 pines blvd, pembroke pines, fl 33024, 954‑949‑0421) where it was diagnosed that the transmission valve failed and that an additional unknown cooling system part needed to be added to make the valve operational. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and confirmed the dealer's diagnosis. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 61,000.
Transmission overheated after 1 1/2 hours driving. Went into a lag mode. No power but never died. Next day car ran fine. Cruise turned off when loss of power occurred. Multiple instances. Was interstate driving, hot day, AC on.
I've owned the car about a year. It has 77,000 miles on it. Recently the transmission has begunh to fail when encountering the slightest of inclined slopes on the highway. It will suddenly drop out of cruise control and lose about 10mph, dropping to around 60 MPH. The last time this happened, I left the highway, stopped at a stop light and when the light changed, the car would not move until I changed to low gear. My allison transmission guy tells me he's replaced a lot of these transmissions and they have the poorest warranty of any transmission, only 1 year or 12,000 miles. He said I probably would not get another 77,000 miles even with a new transmission.
This vehicle has what has been called a CVT transmission issue. It has been well documented by hundreds of drivers across the country (all with the same problem). While driving 80 miles per hour in the fast lane the vehicle lost all power and went to 10 miles per hour in a matter of seconds, my wife was driving and we both panicked as we were on a busy highway. She started to move to the slower lanes, but had semi trucks running close behind us as well as other vehicles, we put on the emergency flashers and slowly made it across to the emergency lane, but not before we were almost in a horrible accident. We had two semis that came within a matter of 1-2 feet of hitting us. We went from 80 MPH to 5 MPH in a matter of seconds and then finally lost all power completely. We waited with the car off for almost 30 minutes, we started the car again and got back on the freeway, we traveled another 50 miles and the car did the same thing again!! This time we stayed in the right lane! We have had several issues since, and have had near death incidents with this vehicle. Nissan knows of this issue, it is a CVT problem with their transmission, their dealer service departments know what to do. The diagnostic code is p0744 replace the valve body on transmission. They know the issue, but will not do a recall. It cost us $1,900. The car is a death trap. My wife and I do not feel safe driving this vehicle, but we can not afford a new one. Nissan will not help our car has 94,443 miles on it, and is out of their warranty. There are hundreds of these issues reported and nissan turns their heads with this potential deadly issue. What will it take, a death to get some attention to this serious issue? Nissan needs to fix this problem. It is a repetitive issue as well. (this problem has happened numerous times)
Loss of power in traffic going 75 to 80 on a busy interstate. Stopped with no power at a red light made a traffic jam
While driving on highway or city road, the car loose acceleration, I have to pull over and wait for about a minute then start driving again and it seems ok until I slow down due to traffic or turn at corner, the car loose acceleration. The brake light is on although the car was turn off. I have to disconnect the battery. I almost have a car accident on highway then now I decide to leave car at home and will decide what to do with it later. I got about 116360 miles on the car
I was driving in arizona on a highway in my 2013 nissan rogue. The vehicle has 54,000 miles. The speed limit was 75 MPH. Suddenly the vehicle would not let me accelerate, the rmps would not let me go past 2500. I was driving in the left lane on a two lane highway and could not pull over due to other traffic. The temperature gauge was not even half way. No service or engine lights engaged. Kicked the car out of cruise control and couldn't turn the air conditioning on. This has happened a few times in the past. The 2013 does not have the extended warranty for the transmission so nissan continuously tells me they cannot help me.
While driving on highway, experience a loss of power after driving >1.5 hours at >65mph on a day warmer than 75 degrees. Vehicle was then slow to respond in acceleration and would then not travel >60mph until after parked with engine off for >30 minutes.
When I drive my 2013 nissan rogue for over an hour the transmission switches to safety mode and reduces the speed in the vehicle. Once it cools down it drivea normal. Tjis has put me in very dangerous situations while driving on the highway. Did all of uts scheduled maintenance and also paid dealership extra for a CVT transmission evaluation. They said the transmission is faulty. Very dangerous to loose power while driving.
Car has been losing power since 70,000 miles. Happens intermittently, car will suddenly lose acceleration although you are pressing on the gas. Multiple times at stoplights, stop signs, etc. You can push the gas pedal to the floor and the car will barely move. Several times upon pulling out into traffic car has decelerated. I am afraid to drive this car with my child and it.
Loss of acceleration due to overheated transmission; my 2013 nissan rogue with 66,000 miles on it started to lose acceleration on a major interstate (65mph to 30mph). I took it to my local dealership and they told me that this is a common problem with rogues, and that my transmission fluid was basically getting so hot it was boiling and had caused major damage to my valve body. I had to replace the valve body and put in an external coolant system which cost $2700. The repairs were not covered by nissan as my transmission warranty was only up to 60,000 miles, however this is a serious manufacturing issue that needs to be addressed by nissan.
Tamara recall: vehicles acts like it's going to die when I am in gear and stopped at a light or stop sign etc.
2013 nissan rogue transmission nearly caused an accident on my way home from work. As I was driving down main street my rogue I immediately lost the majority of my acceleration and was forced into the bus lane to keep from the vehicles behind me from rear ending me. Upon researching this issue its clear the nissan has a serious issue with their CVT transmission design and that many people have lost nearly all acceleration on the highways and in other dangerous environments. This is a design flaw by nissan and needs a recall to protect the consumers driving with sincerely young transmissions that are faulty and dangerous when on public roads.
After driving vehicle for over an hr in warm to hot weather or when towing the vehicle suddenly losses ability to accelerate and seems to enter limp mode. Based on research many others also have same complaint and either require transmission replace or a larger transmission cooler. As vehicle is just over a month out of warranty even after experiencing similar problem in dec on trip(in warranty time period) nissan will not cover repair. This is a safety issue as you can not move at highway speeds on freeway max speed is 5-60 downhill 40s uphill. Nissan extended warranty on 2007-2010 and need to do the same here.
When I drive over 60miles over 30 minutes engine sound different after that I made stop on stop sign car is not moving for 1 or 2 minutes. This happen since I bought new car from nissan filler. I report to filler few times but filler saying "we can not find your problem" . Today I talked my church people about my car he told me samething and he fixed transmission and sold his car. It happened so many times until now. If you have question please call me [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Takata recall. While driving the vehicle after an hour the car lost power and won't go any faster and starts to shake as the gas pedal is depressed to the floor. No power up hill and this vehicle problem should be addressed immediately as it could leave the driver stranded on the side of the on a long trip.
While driving on the interstate, vehicle looses acceleration. Will not accelerate even with gas pedal to the floor. This is very dangerous when your car drops to 40-50 MPH in a 70 MPH zone.
Vehicle has 87000 miles on it and for the last year (since 67000) it will randomly loose power, often on the highway causing a dangerous situation. We have been stranded twice 4+ hours from home on the weekend. This was an official recall from nissan on prior year rogues. Why is this dangerous and expensive fix not being covered now?
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 nissan rogue. While driving approximately 70 MPH, the vehicle lost acceleration even when the accelerator pedal was depressed. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The contact coasted the vehicle to the side of the road and had it towed to his residence. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer (nissan of silsbee, 3490 highway 96 bypass, silsbee, texas 77656) where it was diagnosed that there was an electrical transmission failure caused by metal shavings. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 110,000.
Vehicle lost power while driving on the freeway and abruptly dropped from 75 MPH to under 50 MPH. Vehicle was taken to jackie cooper nissan in tulsa where it was originally purchased and was told that the transmission is going out.
I purchased my car in 2016 which was previously a lease. When I got the car I noticed a whirring sound as I applied the gas and a low pull as it coasted downhill. Several different people I asked about this stated it was normal. I've never driven or owned a nissan before and I just thought it was the way the car drives. A couple of months ago, after driving to get my son from college, the car barely went above 60 MPH as I pressed the gas. I pulled over, thought it was too hot or maybe a bad battery (had it tested, still good) or maybe the fuel injector. I stopped and got some fuel injector cleaner and let my car rest for a bit before heading 2 hours back home. It never happened again until this past friday. Had the codes read when it became sluggish and was given p1778 code. Ultimately, myself, my daughter and my 2 foster daughters got stuck in traffic b/c my car barely moved at all during stop and go traffic. I had it towed and when the mechanic checked it that monday morning he confirmed that my transmission was bad and to take it back to the dealer, that nissan has had several problems w/ it and it should be under an extended warranty, which repairs may otherwise run b/w $3000.00-$4000.00. Upon my research, contact w/ nissan consumer affairs and the dealer I've come to understand that my year (2013 nissan rogue) is not covered under the extended warranty and this appears to be a burden and danger to consumers that nissan has been aware of at least since 2003 yet has not been vigilant enough to fix. I also see where there have been and currently are class action law suits against nissan regarding the CVT transmissions. I have no alternative means of transportation. Please help!!!
Car loses power in the middle of driving. Mechanic says needs new transmission. Has 95k miles
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 nissan rogue. While driving at unknown speeds for over an hour, the vehicle lost power and stalled. Also, the check engine indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to hoffman nissan (46 albany turnpike, canton, ct 06019, (860) 651-3256) where it was diagnosed that the transmission oil was not cooling. In addition, the transmission needed to be replaced and an air cooler needed to be installed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer opened case number: 31451265 and offered to cover fifty percent of the repair cost. The failure mileage was 60,000. The VIN was not available.
I did not get any indications from my car that I was loosing power on the interstate. I push the gas pedal and nothing. I was driving for over an hour and that is when it happens. Unfortunately this has happen more than once. At times it start to slows down. One time when I got off the interstate and stopped at a stop sign and it almost died at the intersection. Now I see it is a known problem I would like nissan to fix this because this could be a serious problem for me or anyone driving this. I almost got hit my a trunk, and a car on the interstate I don't trust this car anymore. I would like them to fix it right...
Car lost power as we were on the highway, going from 70 to 40 MPH in no time. Started to smoke. Just had oil changed and all fluids checked without any issues. After we were towed off the highway and waiting we decided to try the car again to see if it was working. Car went fine the rest of the way. Coming back home about 300 miles, car drove ok, but it felt like there was something off. Brought it to the dealer and was told that it needs a new transmission as well as a transmission cooler kit. Total would be $5200. Car only has 67000 miles, paid in full at time of purchase, warranty expired at 60000 miles. Contacted nissan, I was told other years had extended warranty on transmission but not my year. Also found out that there's been recalls on other years regarding the transmission but not 2013. I see there are many, many complaints online regarding this issue. I don't feel safe driving my car and I really think nissan should make restitution on this problem. I have contacted them and waiting for regional department to contact me today.
