What owners say
While driving on I-95, my Nissan Rogue Select 2015 was cruising at the speed limit of 70 mph when, all of a sudden, the speed had begun to drop to 65-50 mph. I pressed the gas pedal to accelerate, but the car wouldn't go past 65mph. Over a period of time, I began to hear a strange high pitch whining sound. Later, the speed had dropped as low as 40 mph, I switched lanes, and stopped on the shoulder of the highway. As I parked my car, I smelled the odor of the transmission fluid. As I parked, I began to read up about the transmission issue on the owner's manual as well as online. I later found out that the transmission, CVT transmission, had entered a mode called, "limp-mode" wherein the car limits the speed to a safe driving speed (this case it was 65mph) in order to prevent a transmission overheat. Not to mention, I noticed that my Rogue dashboard shows an air bag light flashing, something that happened recently. My family and I almost got into an accident with the transmission on limp mode. A recent bulletin from Nissan stated the issue with the CVT transmission. We had gone to Valvoline and they said that the transmission needed a tune-up. No lamps or indicators showed that the transmission was in limp-mode. The only lamp that was flashing was for the air bag ( there was a recall about that.)

Tl* the contact owns a 2015 nissan rogue. While driving 45 MPH, the vehicle was involved in a crash and the entire front driver's side was damaged. The contact was injured and was rushed to the hospital for medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to the contact's home and then towed billy navarre nissan (1700 siebarth dr, lake charles, la 70615, (337) 439-9955) where it was repaired three months later. Since the crash, the vehicle had been back to the dealer at least ten times. The TCM in the engine, an etrc sensor in the engine, the belt pulley, the transmission, the body control module, and the tpmf were replaced. All of the failures originated from the engine. The continuously variable transmission was replaced and recalibrated, there was a loose pin in the power relay box, and two sensors had to be changed, including the 02 sensor. In addition, the gears did not shift fluidly and the transbody sensor needed to be changed. The most recent failure was the vehicle sputtering and the transmission straining to change gears. By the time the contact pulled into her neighborhood, the vehicle had no acceleration and the check engine indicator illuminated. The contact planned to have the vehicle towed back to the dealer. The contact believed the vehicle was not in driving condition since the crash. The failure mileage was 49,000.
Shift interlock solenoid. Does not shift from park position intermittently
The car revs up to 5 rpms at 60mph like its stuck in neutral. Need to take the foot off the gas get down to 50mph and was able to get it back up to 65mph. I did this in rush hour traffic. I was afraid the person behind was going to hit to change speeds so fast. Nissan looked at the car today and said there wasn't an issue and I needed to do that to let the transmission catch up. Never heard of such a thing. My last nissan at 98k died because of the transmission. Before it died it was doing the same thing.
