2010 NISSAN ROGUE Complaints

WITH DAUGHTER DRIVING IN MOUNTAINS. AFTER APPX. 2 HOURS OF DRIVING THE CAR WOULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE BEYOND 40MPH ON 65 MPH HIGHWAY. EVEN SLOWER ON HILLS, NO POWER.A LOT OF SEMIS AND CARS HONKING BUT NO PLACE TO PULL OVER.FELT WE COULD BE RAMMED FROM BEHIND AT ANY MOMENT. TERRIFYING.SUBSEQUENT CHECK ONLINE REVEALED THIS IS SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND THERE HAVE BEEN LOTS OF COMPLAINTS. WHY HAS NOTHING BEEN DONE? IF EVER A RECALL WAS NEEDED THIS IS IT. WORSE THAN AN AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS HAS POTENTIAL TO BE THE CAUSE OF MANY ACCIDENTS. MOST VEHICLES ON I-70 EXCEED THE 65MPH SPEED LIMIT AND A CAR GOING LESS THAN THE MIN REQUIRED SPEED IS AT GREAT RISK. DO SOMETHING!! MORE INFO ON THIS PROBLEM IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET. JUST GOOGLE NISSAN ROGUE ACCELERATION PROBLEM.

I WAS DRIVING ON I70 FROM LAKEWOOD, CO TO NEW CASTLE, CO AND ABOUT HALF WAY THROUGH THE DRIVE, NO MATER WHAT GEAR I WAS IN OR HOW HARD I PUSH THE GAS PEDDLE DOWN (FLOORED IT), MY CAR WOULD ONLY GO 35-40 MPH ON THE HILLS. I WAS ON A HIGHWAY WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 65 AND IN SOME PLACES 75 AND IT IS VERY UNSAFE TO BE STUCK GOING ONLY 35-40 MILES AN HOUR.

THE CVT TRANSMISSION IS FAILING ON LONGER DRIVES IN WARMER WEATHER. THE CAR STALLS AND STOPS ACCELERATING AND EVENTUALLY STOPS RUNNING ALTOGETHER. THIS HAS OCCURRED WHEN MY DAUGHTER IS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND IT IS A HUGE SAFETY RISK AS IT RENDERS THE CAR DISABLED IN TRAFFIC.

WHEN DRIVING IN A HIGH WAY AT 70MPH CAR WOULD LOST CONECTION WITH ENGINE NONE RESPONSIVE AND CAN CAUSE MAJOR ACCIDENT CAR TRANSMISSION PRACTACLY GOES ON ON NUTRAL DOESNT RESPOND TO GAS PEDAL.

NEAR THE END OF MAY OF THIS YEAR, THE CAR STARTED LOSING POWER ON THE INTERSTATE. IT BECAME UNRESPONSIVE TO THE PEDAL AND WOULD ONLY GO ABOUT 40 MPH. IT ALSO MADE HORRIBLE NOISE AND VIBRATION. VEHICLES GOING 70 MPH HAD TO AVOID HITTING IT. THIS HAPPENED ON BRIDGES IN LOUISIANA WHERE OFF RAMPS ARE MILES AWAY. TOOK IT TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD I NEEDED A TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT, NO REPAIR PARTS. COST $3,800 PLUS TAX. DISCOVERED NISSAN'S EXTENDED WARRANTY, 10 YEARS OF 120,000 MILES, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. CAR HAS 101,000 MILES BUT WAS PURCHASED IN MARCH 2010, PAST 10 YEARS BY 2 MONTHS. IF I PURCHASED IN JUNE 2010 NISSAN WOULD PAY. SINCE BOUGHT IN MARCH, NISSAN REFUSED ANY RESPONSIBILITY. WAS ABLE TO GET IT REPAIRED FOR $3,200 WITH A REBUILT TRANSMISSION WITH 12,000 MILES 12 MONTH WARRANTY, WHICH EVER COMES FIRST. SAME TYPE OF TRANS THAT NISSAN ADMITS IS FAULTY. DON'T FEEL SAFE, BUT CAN'T SELL CAR WITH GOOD CONSCIOUS. *TR

I HAVE THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS FLASHING , I NEVER BEEN IN ACCIDENT AND NERE HAPPEN BEFORE, THIS IS FIRST TIME IS FLASHING AND I HAVE THIS ISSUE

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ON NO FIX HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED TECHS WANT TO REPLACE DIFFERENT COMPONENTS BUT CAN'T ASSURE IT WILL FIX THE PROBLEM AIR BAG NOT FUNCTIONAL UNTIL WARNING LIGHT ISSUE IS ADDRESSED

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. AFTER STOPPING AND ALLOWING THE VEHICLE TO REST FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER NISSAN OF GASTONIA (2275 EAST FRANKLIN BLVD, GASTONIA NC) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION COOLER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. IT WAS ALSO DEEM THAT DUE TO THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE COOLER FAILURE THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT YET NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, ON A COUNTRY RD. THERE WAS A SMELL, ALMOST LIKE IF WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID SPILLS, THEN SMOKE FROM UNDER THE HOOD. THEN FLAMES ON THE RIGHT FRONT, UNDER THE HOOD. I PULLED OVER, TURNED THE CAR OFF, GRABBED MY PURSE AND RAN. 2 GOOD SAMARITANS PULLED OVER AND JUST HAPPENED TO HAVE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND WERE ABLE TO PUT IT OUT. THE WHOLE RIGHT HEADLIGHT WAS MELTED AWAY.

PLEASE REFER TO: HTTPS://COMMUNITY.CARTALK.COM/T/TURN-SIGNAL-VOLUME/64854/6 DEAR CONGRESSMAN, SENATOR, OR ADMINISTRATOR ' I WISH TO OPEN A CAR SAFETY CASE. IT IS WIDESPREAD AND NOT RECEIVING ENOUGH PUBLICITY OR ATTENTION. I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL CARS, MOST RECENTLY A 2002 TOYOTA COROLLA AND A 2010 NISSAN ROGUE. IF YOU READ THE CAR TALK DISCUSSION AT THE ABOVE-REFERENCED WEBSITE, YOU WILL UNDERSTAND MY CONCERN AND THE CONCERNS OF MANY CAR OWNERS AND DRIVERS. BY THE NEGATIVE NATURE OF SOME COMMENTS DENYING AND RIDICULING THE ISSUE, YOU MIGHT THINK THAT SOME CAR MANUFACTURER REPRESENTATIVES ARE PROVIDING OFFSETTING AND NEGATIVE PUBLICITY. BRIEFLY, I AM INADVERTENTLY LEAVING MY TURN SIGNAL ON AND NOT BEING ALERTED THAT IT IS ON BY EITHER ITS VISUAL OR AUDIBLE INDICATORS. THE VISUAL SIGNAL IS BURIED DEEP IN THE DASHBOARD AND THE AUDIBLE SIGNAL FREQUENCY AND VOLUME MAKE IT HARD TO DISTINGUISH FROM ROAD NOISE. THIS IS INCONVENIENT AND DANGEROUS. THEREFORE, I BELIEVE THAT THE TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR SYSTEM IN THESE CARS DOES NOT WORK AS INTENDED AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I AM SEEKING A WAY TO ENHANCE OR AMPLIFY THE VISUAL AND AUDIBLE SIGNAL. THERE SEEMS TO BE NO AFTERMARKET KIT TO DO THAT. WHAT AM I ASKING FOR? PLEASE RESPOND TO ME AND EITHER AGREE OR DISAGREE WITH MY CONCERN. PLEASE REFER ME TO ANY AFTERMARKET ACCESSORY OR MODIFICATION THAT WILL FIT MY CAR AND ALLEVIATES THE ISSUE. PLEASE GUIDE ME IN INITIATING A CAR SAFETY ISSUE OR CASE THAT WILL BROADLY COME TO THE ATTENTION OF APPROPRIATE LEGISLATORS AND REGULATORS. PLEASE DO NOT REPLY WITH A GENERIC, GENERALIZED AND NON-SPECIFIC 'THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONCERN' LETTER.
