I was headed south on the I-5 (southern california, lots of constant traffic) when my car stopped accelerating after about 45 minutes. Going uphill, I put my pedal to the floor and wasn't going over 60mph, my rpms reaching above 4. My car made a whining noise every time I tried to accelerate. So I put my hazards on, took the closest exit, and let my car rest for about 5-10 minutes. I got back on the freeway after resting and not a minute or two later and the same problem occurred. I put my hazards back on and just pulled off on the shoulder, letting my car rest again for another 5-10 minutes. I tried again, now reaching the top of the hill and was able to finally coast down the hill the problem happening again, but this has happened multiple times before. The first in the beginning of july, the second and third around august and september, and then now. It only happens on drives about an hour long (or longer) when I go out of town.

My 2014 nissan rogue has 118,000 miles and quit on the us going down the road. Car was whining and had no power. Looks like we are going to need a transmission. I have researched and now discover that is a common problem among nissan's with a ctv transmission. Shame on nissan for not fixing this after years of issues!! There should be an extended warranty on all nissan's with this transmission!

I bought a 2014 rogue select 33,000 miles from larry h. Miller nissan in dec 2015. Shortly after my purchase in jan - I frequently experienced my car engine going into safety mode when on the freeway. Having no power. I took to lhm service dept a total of 7 times. Sorry we are not able to duplicate the problem. Last time I took they had an upgrade and said oh it is your CVT transmission it's fried. At this point my SUV was at 114000 miles. I was told by the service dept I had a 100000 mile warranty,they called back and said it was 60,000. Corporate gave me the run around. Finally agreed to pay 70% I had to pay 30%. It was unfair I had brought this to them a month after purchase and 7more times. Cvt transmission replaced I paid 30% about $1000. I picked up my car they said the battery had died but they charged it. I got to work turned off went to leave 20 min later dead. Called lhm service several times no answer, emailed no response.I bought a new battery. Called corp they reguj fed me as it was ujnder warranty. Lhm never contacted me back. 3 months later my alternator went out. My mechanic replaced it $300. 2 months ago my a.c. Compressor went out. My mechanic replaced it $350. So today my SUV started doing the whining noise and engine going into safe mode. I'm now at 144000 miles and the CVT transmission had 12,000 mile warranty! I drive a lot.I also take great care of my car and do not drive fast, I put most of my miles on the freeway. Driving at 70mph and then car engine going into safe mode with no power on the freeway is dangerous. I asked them to google it others had the same experience I was told they don't google if it isn't showing error codes they wouldn't know what to fix.I still owe about $14000 now need a 2nd get transmission replaced with no warranty?? No help from nissan? Toyota would never do business this way.

Well first off the VIN # on my rogue is for an awd and mine is a fwd?? The seat belts in the back seat lock and are hard to release when trying to buckle. Worries me that they aren't going to do what they need to in an accident. The steering wheel pops when turning right or left. I have already paid $100 for them to lube and clean the seal going into the firewall. This did not fix the problem and it's getting worse. Had to have 2 alignments within 4 months. No rough roads amd service dept could not explain why. Brakes and rotors wear quickly. Transmission whines when going down or up a hill. I love my vehicle but the issues I have make me rethink ever buying another nissan. If there are issues they need to be addressed.

On sunday january 11th, 2014, my family and I were on our way home. After stopping at a service station my husband pulled onto the highway and was accelerating to the appropriate speed and the car just got stuck at 6500 RPM's and 60 MPH. It stayed that way for about 5 miles,we could slow down but the RPM's were still stuck at 6500 and the engine was making a horrible sound, the car would not accelerate and several times we had to ride the shoulder of the road. When we finally reached the road we live off of my husband was able to slow down and turn while turning the awful noise got a little lower but a new noise was heard, a whining sound. After turning, the car lost all gas, nothing happened when the accelerator was pushed and then finally it started to go again. We arrived at our home my husband opened the hood and told me to press the accelerator a little and then he saw small puffs of smoke. I smelled something like burning rubber while sitting in the drivers seat and my husband said he smelled something sweet under the hood. This car was bought brand new on january 4th, 2014, it had 25 miles when purchased. The mileage on january 11th was around 500. This is a dangerous vehicle, I am waiting on the dealership to call and let me know what they find.
