2012 NISSAN ROGUE Complaints

BRAKE FRONT/BACK HAS BEEN REPLACE. AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON SUSPENSION BELT WEAR VEHICLE IS DRIVER ABLE

TRANSMISSION IS OVERHEATED AFTER ABOUT 2 HR DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. ITS VERRY TOUGH TO CLIMB TO THE HILL, AND YOU CAN DRIVE ONLY 40 MPH. ITS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN YOUR CAR SUDDENLY STOP DRIVING ON HIGHWAYS. ITS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON M THE WEB, PEOPLE WRITE A LOT ABOUT THUS ISSUE, BUT THERE IS STILL NO RECALL. IT NEEDS A BETTER COOLER SYSTEM.

MY VEHICLE, A 2012 NISSAN ROUGE CAUGHT ON FIRE IN MY DRIVEWAY WHILE MYSELF AND THE OTHER MEMBERS OF OUR HOME WERE SLEEPING. WHEN I WOKE UP TO A LOUD POPPING NOISE AND RAN TO MY BEDROOM WINDOW FACING THE DRIVEWAY WHERE ALL OF THE VEHICLES WERE PARKED I NOTICED MY VEHICLE, THE NISSAN ROGUE BURNING INTENSELY. THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE AS WELL AS UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE IN THE FRONT WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. 911 WAS DIALED IMMEDIATELY AFTER WAKING AND NOTICING AN OBVIOUS FIRE COMING FROM THE 2012 NISSAN ROGUE, AT APPROX. 11:00 PM. BY THE TIME THE FIRE WAS EXTINGUISHED, 3 OTHER VEHICLES IN OUR DRIVEWAY, ALONG WITH THE 2012 NISSAN ROGUE, WERE RUINED. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WAS SALVAGEABLE. THE FIRE WAS SO INTENSE THAT IT MELTED ALL OF THE SIDING ON THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE FACING THE DRIVEWAY WHERE THE FIRE OCCURRED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, INCLUDING THE FIRE CHIEF AND FIRE MARSHALL CONDUCTED AN INVESTIGATION AND EXPLAINED TO ME, AS WELL AS THE OWNERS OF THE OTHER VEHICLES, THAT THEY BELIEVE THE FIRE WAS ELECTRICAL AND OBVIOUSLY STARTED WITH THE 2012 NISSAN ROGUE AND ULTIMATELY SPREAD TO THE OTHER VEHICLES BEFORE THE FIRE COULD BE COMPLETELY EXTINGUISHED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE WENT INTO NEUTRAL AND IT SEEMED LIKE THE ENGINE STOPPED WITHOUT WARNING. A FEW MOMENTS LATER, THE VEHICLE DROVE NORMALLY. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,000.

AT 49,935 MILES, THE TRANSFER CASE AND DRIVE SHAFT (WHILE DRIVING) LEAKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $1,514 + CAR RENTAL FOR 2 DAYS. THE ENGINE AND POWER TRAIN ARE COVERED BY NISSAN'S WARRANTEE ONLY UNTIL 5 YEAR,50,000 MILES. AS I WOULD BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A NISSAN DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING PROBLEM, AND THAT OTHER 2012 NISSAN ROGUE ARE HAVING SIMILAR PROBLEMS, I WOULD VERY MUCH APPRECIATE IF THE NHTSA WOULD INVESTIGATE THIS TO DETERMINE IF A RECALL IS WARRANTED. THANK YOU.

THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AFTER 154,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. CAR BUCKED A FEW TIMES, THEN STOPPED MOVING. THE FRONT AXLE IS BROKEN. NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS OPENED A CASE, HAD ME PAY TO TOW THE CAR TO THEIR DEALER, PAY FOR A DIAGNOSIS, CONFIRMED THE TRANSMISSION FAILED, THEN DENIED THE CLAIM BASED ON MILEAGE WHICH I PROVIDED TO THEM UP FRONT. THE $265 TOWING AND DIAGNOSIS FEE SHOULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED ENTIRELY.

I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION OF CAR TWICE ON THE HIGHWAY. CAR FEELS AND SOUNDS LIKE IT IS STUCK IN ONE GEAR. I COULDN'T DRIVE FASTER THAN 75 MPH. CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN EVEN WITH MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL. SPEED DROPPED FROM 75 TO 65, FROM 65 TO 60, FROM 60 TO 55, FROM 55 TO 49, FROM 49 TO 45, FROM 45 TO 30, FROM 30 TO 10 MPH. ALL OF THIS HAPPENED WITHIN 2 MILES OF THE NEAREST EXIT. I TRIED USING CRUISE CONTROL TO MAINTAIN SPEED AT 65 MPH, BUT IT DIDN'T WORK. CAR TOWED BY AAA ON 9/10/17.

AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN ABOUT AN HOUR OR MORE, USUALLY ON A WARM DAY, THE CAR HAS NO POWER WHEN GOING UP HILLS. IT WILL GO FROM 70 MPH TO ABOUT 50 MPH WITH THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND WILL CONTINUE TO GO SLOWER UNTIL LEVEL GROUND IS DRIVEN ON. ALSO, WHEN LEAVING THE HIGHWAY AFTER THIS HAS OCCURRED, AFTER A COMPLETE STOP, THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE AT ALL WITH ACCELERATION. THE CAR JUST SITS THERE LIKE YOU HAVEN'T EVEN TOUCHED THE GAS. WHEN IT DOES MOVE AFTER A MINUTE OR TWO, IT GOES ABOUT 1 MILE AN HOUR AND IF YOU ARE PULLING INTO AN INTERSECTION WITH OTHER CARS COMING, THAT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT IN FOR REPAIRS WAS MEMORIAL DAY 2017. THE MOST RECENT TIME I TOOK IT IN FOR REPAIRS WAS SEPTEMBER 8, 2017.

2012 NISSAN ROGUE LOST ACCELERATION WHILE ON A TRIP. ROGUE WOULD NOT GO MORE THEN 30-40 MPH IN A 80 MPH SPEED ZONE ON HIGHWAY. ALMOST GOT HIT A COUPLE TIMES TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC AND HAVING TO PULL OVER TO GIVE THE CAR A BREAK. IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS WITH BEING 7 MONTHS PREGNANT, DRIVING IN A NO SERVICE AREA. COULDN'T CALL FOR HELP. IT WAS HOT OUT TO HAVE TO STOP WITH MY SELF AND THREE DOGS IN THE CAR.

I WAS STATIONED AND MY AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING ON I CAME TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD MY DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG CIRCUIT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. ALSO MY DRIVERS AIRBAG MODULE AND CLOCK SPRINGS NEED TO BE REPLACED. I NOT HAD ANY ACCIDENT WHERE MY AIRBAG CAME OUT SO NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY MY AIRBAG IS NOT WORKING.
