Check engine light by model year
What owners say
Nissan Rouge select transmission went in the span of 24 hours. One morning it wouldn’t accelerate past 20 mph, and the next morning it wouldn’t accelerate at all. There were no check engine lights or any other indication that there was a problem before it died, or even after it died. I was told that this model of Nissan did not come standard with a transmission cooling unit as, “Nissan didn’t think they were necessary on a few models of the Rouge, including this one.” Because of this, I needed to get my car towed to Middletown Nissan, where I was told the cost of repairs, tax and labor would cost approximately $4000, and $5000 with the addition of a cooling unit. The day repairs were to be completed, I got a call as I was on my way to the dealership that there was an error in calculation of labor costs, and Nissan wanted to charge me $8700. They ‘lowered the price’ to $6300, and at this point I had been without a car for a week and it was impacting my wife and my ability to work, and my preschool age daughter to go to school(of which i also pay for)

Purchased with 89k miles, now has 130k miles. A few times at random the check engine light came on and then went off immediately, seemingly went off when I would tighten up my gas cap, so i thought this was the cause. Hit 130k miles and light comes on during my drive home from work, and this time is accompanied by my loss of acceleration. On Highway I couldn’t go over about 55mph without losing ability to accelerate, I pull off Highway, get to first stop light, and then I can’t get the car to accelerate from a stop at all without an extreme delay. I pull into the nearest repair shop and they run the codes on ECU and tell me it’s not reading any active codes, but history codes are showing transmission issues and that CVT transmissions are known for this and recommends I call Nissan Consumer Affairs. Literally zero noticeable issues prior to this incident! I call them & they don’t have my name attached to the VIN? They create a case and tell me there was a class action lawsuit settlement (I never got any notification whatsoever!!!) but that I’m outside of the extended warranty provided as a result of the settlement. I still owe $8k on this piece of shit and Nissan won’t do anything—It should be recalled!!! 2nd Nissan I’ve owned, the first one I bought with 14k miles on it & had to replace the transmission at 35k, warranty expired. I will never buy another Nissan ever again. Ever. They clearly knowingly put defective and unsafe transmissions in these cars, screw over their customers time and time again, & are never held responsible. I don’t have the money to replace this transmission or buy a new car and be $10k in the hole. I can’t get to & from work in this car & don’t feel remotely safe when driving it. I’m terrified I’m going to get tboned bc I won’t be able to accelerate, & it’s only a matter of time before it is completely toast. There will be blood on Nissan’s hands for these CVT’s. I’m not paying them to diagnose a widespread issue they are fully aware of!!

October 2021 while driving at a 55 mph my stirring wheel felt hard to maneuver and a chasis control light/check engine light came on. I felt a resistance to steer and speed was reducing. I manage to pull over right away and turn off car it would not turn off until I continuously press my start button. After my car got towed it would not jump star no power at all A mechanics saw and diagnostic as an electrical issue possibly harness with a code U0100. I decided to take to Nissan dealer they diagnosed an IPM issue replaced for $1300. Took car drove fine for two months two months later while driving my chasis control light came up again my steering to the right was too hard so I pull to the left manage to park. Car turn off at first press on start button but it wouldn’t jump start again. Replace the ipm Nissan said harness that holds has to be replace want to do it for $5k and not sure if it will fix issue. My car had no signs of issues ever before very scare to fix and drive now since it just suddenly doesn’t let me control steering and dies right away with no warnings. Very dangerous for all road drivers. No current recall resolution till next month however I need a vehicle very inconvenient and dangerous for me.
Own a 2015 Nissan rogue with 85k miles on it. Check engine light came on. Took to dealership. They performed diagnostics and gave the code P1740 and P0725. They told me the CVT transmission issue and needed to be replaced. Didn't have issues with the car up to this point and did all my service in Nissan dealer at the right time. Researched and saw that Nissan had issues with their CVT transmissions including the Rogue model and year I had. If there is an issue with the transmission, why are they allowed to still sell it? A bad transmission can cause an accident when driving or in reverse. It's 5504 dollars to repair/replace and no guarantee that the transmission they put in will work properly either. Called Nissan and they say they can't help because it is out of warranty. This issue has been going on for 2 decades already. I would like to be reimbursed for it. I know that's not your agency's job but you should be much more diligent on these issues. Consumer lives are at risk not to mention the huge cost of repairing/replacing a transmission. Nissan is getting a free pass on selling defective vehicles to the public. There is a class action law suit for the same which Nissan is settling only for few car owners who falls in the same category as mine. Here is the link for the class action law suit. https://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/lawsuit-news/nissan-class-action-lawsuit-and-settlement-news/nissan-inks-277m-deal-with-rogue-pathfinder-infiniti-qx60-drivers-to-end-transmission-class-action/ Nissan should help all people who are affected by their faulty CVT. Nissan cars should be banned till they fix the issue and the Government should take proper action to safe guard the life of consumers and the people whom the government is working for. The rating on this car should be downgraded to zero. I request the concern authorities to help the affected consumers, ban the Nissan malpractice and save the lives of American people.
