2008 NISSAN ROGUE Complaints

THE NO OCCUPANT AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN AN ADULT SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT CONSISTENTLY FLASHES WHEN THE KEY IS IN THE IGNITION (ENGINE ON AND OFF). THERE IS CURRENTLY A SIMILAR RECALL BUT I AM TOLD THAT MY VIN IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL.

AFTER 1HR DRIVING ON HIGHWAY SPEED DROPS TO APPROX 50MPH ALTHO SPEED ODOMETER NEEDLE STAYS 60-70MPH; RPM AT 2 1/2 DOES NOT MOVE. PEDAL TO THE METAL NO REACTION. ONCE APPROACH SLOWER TRAFFIC AREA, SPEED TO LIKE 40MPH CAR DRIVES OK. TOLD IT IS THE FAILSAFE FOR OVERHEATING TRANSMISSION!!

CVT TRANSMISSION FAILURE. AT 86000 MILES. I WAS ON STREET AND HEARD A GRINDING NOISE AND IT JUST POPPED. IT LOST POWER NO ACCELERATION. I LUCKILY COASTED TO A DIRT ROAD WHERE AS SOON AS I TURNED IT STOPPED. WOULD NOT GO. HAD IT TOWED TO DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY'VE HAD FOR 7 DAYS SO FAR. I'M OUT 445$ ON RENTAL CAR SO FAR. THEY PAY FOR TRANSMISSION BUT 300+ OTHER STUFF I HAVE TO PAY. SO I'M OUT 800+ $ FRANKLY I DONT REALLY HAVE. I KNOW COULD BE WORSE BUT THIS IS UNEXPECTED $ I HAD TO PAY PLUS KEEP UP ON REGULAR BILL'S. NOT RIGHT.

I AM HAVING CVT TRANSMISSION ISSUES. IT STOPS ACCELERATING WHEN ON THE HIGHWAY AND I'M NOT ABLE TO GO FASTER THAT 60 MPH. WHEN I TRY TO ACCELERATE THE RPM METER GOES UP, WHICH ISN'T GOOD. I AM NO LONGER WITHIN 10 YEAR FRAME OF NISSAN'S EXTENDED WARRANTY SO I HAVE TO COME OUT OF POCKET FOR A TRANSMISSION THAT NISSAN KNOWS ISN'T RELIABLE AND WILL FAIL AGAIN. I'M HOPING THAT A RECALL COMES FROM THEM INSTEAD OF AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT LEAVES A LOT OF CONSUMERS OUT IN THE COLD. I'M GLAD THIS HAPPENED TO ME CAUSE I KNOW, NEVER, TO BUY A NISSAN VEHICLE.

"TAKATA RECALL" I'VE BEEN HEARING MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION ON THESE VEHICLE I NEVER BELIEVED IT UNTIL IT HAPPENED TO ME. I HAVE AN 2008 NISSAN ROGUE AND ONE DAY WHILE DRIVING I HERD A LOUD BANG SOUND AFTER THAT THE VEHICLE STOPED MOVING. COME TO KNOW IT THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM THAT I HAVE BEEN HEARING HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE TOO. THE TRANSMISSION IS FROZED UP VEHICLE WONT MOVE AND I CANT AFFORD TO FIX OR EVEN BUY A NEW TRANSMISSION. PLEASE IF POSSIBLE I NEED NISSAN TO CONSIDER THIS AND FIX IT THE VEHILCE ONLY HAS 118,000 MILES AND I NEED MY VEHICLE TO WORK TO TRANSPORT FROM SCHOOL AND WORK.

I HAVE JUST RECENTLY NOTICED A BAD VIBRATION WITH MY NISSAN . IT SHAKES LIKE YOUR DRIVING OVER RUMBLE STICKS. EVEN WHEN YOUR AT A FULL STOP AND GIVE IT SOME GAS THE RUMBLE EFFECT HAPPEN RIGHT AWAY FROM A FULL STOP. IDK, WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. PLEASE HELP! ONCE YOU GET UP TO 30 MPH THE VIBRATION GOES AWAY. SLOW DOWN MAKE RIGHT/LEFT TURNS BOOM THE VIBRATIONS OF THE RIMBLE STICKS RIGHT THERE. SOMETHING IS WRONG.

THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS MALFUNCTIONING. STAY LIT EVEN WITH ADULT SEATED ON PASSENGER SIDE. DASBOARD BLINKING AIRBAG LIGHT WHILE ENGINE IS ON AND DRIVING
