2012 NISSAN ROGUE Complaints

THE CVT HAS LOST 95% OF THE POWER DURING DRIVING. LUCKILY WE WERE ONLY 1/2 MILE FROM HOME, SO WE TURNED AROUND. WE HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT DIAGNOSED. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD US THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACED AT A COST OF OVER $3400. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 77924 MILES ON IT. WE ASKED IF IT COULD BE REBUILT AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT HAS TO BE REPLACED WITH A RE MANUFACTURED UNIT. THEY CANNOT REBUILD THE TRANSMISSION. WE CONTACTED NISSAN TO OPEN A CASE AND THEY SAID THEY WILL NOT HELP IN THE COST OF A RE MANUFACTURED UNIT OR THE LABOR COST. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH NISSAN AND PREVIOUS MODEL YEARS HAVE HAD THE WARRANTY EXTENDED TO COVER THE COSTS. AFTER READING ONLINE THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS TRANSMISSION AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR DEATH. NISSAN CASE IS UNDER SAMANTHA DIEZMAN THE CO OWNER OF THE VEHICLE.

TRANSMISSION WENT OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY I-75 SOUTHBOUND 37.5 MILE. TWO ADULTS AND KIDS 6 AND 4 YRS OLD WERE PRESENT IN THE CAR. WE HAD TO GET OTHER PEOPLE TO HELP PUSH THE CAR OVER TO THE RESTING AREA AND OFF THE HIGHWAY. WE HAD TO TOW THE CAR TWICE TO THE LOCATION WERE WE WERE GOING AND BACK TO SARASOTA AREA WHERE WE LIVE. THE CAR WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 75 MPH WHEN IT BROKE AND COULD NOT MOVE ANYMORE. I CALLED NISSAN AND CREATED A CASE, BUT THEY REFUSED HELP WITH ANYTHING. NISSAN TRANSMISSIONS WERE RECALLED TO YEAR 2010. OURS IS 2012 AND THEY STILL MADE BAD TRANSMISSIONS. IT SHOULD BE RECALLED.

I HAVE A 2012 NISSAN ROGUE WITH CURRENTLY ABOUT 98K MILES. I WAS DRIVING THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 70 MPH WHEN THE CAR MADE A SOUND FROM UNDER THE HOOD. WE BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE ACCELERATION ISSUES. AFTER GETTING OFF OF THE HIGHWAY, ANY TIME THAT I HAD TO ACCELERATE UP A HILL OR FROM A STOP LIGHT, THE CAR WOULD STALL, SOMETIMES MOVING AND OTHER TIMES IT WOULD NOT. THIS BECAME DANGEROUS WHEN I WOULD TRY TO MAKE A LEFT TURN ON A STOP LIGHT. I TOOK THE CAR TO BE LOOKED AT BY NISSAN WHO EXPLAINED THAT THE REPAIRS WOULD BE OVER $4000. NISSAN HAS HAD RECALLS ON OTHER CVT MODELS BEGINNING WITH THE 2013, AND I BELIEVE THIS MODEL NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO THE RECALL LIST. ADDITIONALLY, MANY TRANSMISSION REPAIR SHOPS THAT I CALL CANNOT WORK WITH A CVT TRANSMISSION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A SWITCH IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG SENSOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,137.

WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE AT TIMES THE VEHICLE WILL NOT RECEIVE A RESPONSE FROM THE GAS PEDAL (IT SEEMS LIKE) NOT SURE IF THIS IS THE TRANSMISSION NOT RESPONDING OR IF ITS THE THROTTLE BODY NOT RESPONDING. EITHER WAY BASED ON WHAT I HAVE READ ONLINE, THE BULK OF COMPLAINTS ARE POINTING TO THE CVT TRANSMISSION & MILEAGE IS RELATIVELY SIMILAR TO MY VEHICLE THAT HAVE THIS PROBLEM AS WELL. MY KIDS TRAVEL IN THIS VEHICLE EVERY MORNING THAT I PURCHASED NEW FROM NISSAN. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE FROM NISSAN NOT TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM WHEN THEY (I'M SURE) KNOW OF ALL THE COMPLAINTS.

THE AUTOMATIC LOCK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE HAS STOPPED WORKING WHEN IT IS "COLD" OUTSIDE. IT WAS TAKEN TO NISSAN LAST YEAR AND DETERMINED THAT THE LOCK HAD GOTTEN "TOO COLD" AND THAT MANY OTHER ROGUES HAD BEEN SEEN FOR THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. THE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN.

ON NOVEMBER 10, 2016 I NOTICED THAT MY 2012 NISSAN ROGUE GAS GAUGE IS OFF. EVEN WITH A FULL TANK OF GAS, THE GAUGE WILL READ THE TANK AS BELOW THE FULL LEVEL. AT TIMES IT WILL SHOW THE TANK AS 3/4. TODAY (NOVEMBER 16, 16) MY CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP IT WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW TO BE SEEN FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE SERVICE TEAM INFORMED ME THAT NO ERROR CODES WERE BEING THROWN ON THEIR COMPUTER. I TRIED TO EXPLAIN THAT I KNOW SOMETHING IS FAULTY WITH THE FUEL GAUGE. I FILL THE CAR UP WITH GAS AND THE GAUGE STAYS AT 3/4 OF A TANK. IT DOES NOT MOVE, LETTING ME KNOW WHEN I AM FULL OR EMPTY ON GAS. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TRIED TO SELL ME ON THE IDEA THAT THE ROGUE JUST HAS "GREAT GAS MILEAGE". NOTHING HAS OR WILL BE DONE TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.

TAKATA RECALL MY 2012 NISSAN ROGUE SHAKES AND MAKES A WEIRD NOISE WHILE DRIVING. ALSO TRANSMISSION WILL GO INTO SOME SORT OF SAFE MODE EVEN WHILE DRIVING MAKING MY NOT ACCELERATE MAKING IT VERY DANGEROUS WHILE EXITING THE HALLWAY. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SAYING WITH A CODE FOR THE TORQUE CONVERTER.

VEHICLE HAS AN ACCELERATION PROBLEM, ON LONG DRIVES THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS AND IT DOES NOT ACCELERATE AS INTENDED; YOU STEP ON THE ACCELERATOR AND IT DOES NOT GO OVER 35-40 MILES PER HOUR, AND ON THE HIGHWAY IS VERY DANGEROUS, MY DAUGHTER ALMOST GOT HIT BY A SEMI ON HER WAY HOME FROM SCHOOL. SHE DRIVES 2:45 HOURS FROM AND TO SCHOOL. I CONTACTED NISSAN AND TOLD ME THAT WAS MY PROBLEM, THAT MY WARRANTY ALREADY EXPIRED AND THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL THEY COULD ANYTHING I AM ON MY OWN. CHECKED WITH THE INTERNET AND OTHER OWNERS AND TOLD ME THE SAME THING; IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE, BUT THEY DONT SEE IT THAT WAY IS ALL ABOUT THE MONEY AND ALSO THEY TOLD ME BECAUSE IT AS MY FIRST NISSAN; THEY COULD NOT HELP BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO BE A LOYAL CUSTOMER OF NISSAN IN ORDER FOR ME TO BE ABLE TO GET SOMETHING DONE. DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO. NEED HELP!!!

AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR OF HIGHWAY DRIVING, THE CAR WILL STOP ACCELERATING. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP TODAY, 10/18/19, WHERE THE MECHANIC TOLD US THAT THE "TRANSMISSION WAS OVERHEATING". THEY COULD NOT TELL US WHAT WAS CAUSING IT WANT INSTALL AN ADDITIONAL PIECE OF EQUIPMENT THAT WILL PROVIDE A TEMPORARY FIX. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND SCARY SITUATION; THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. *TR
