Hi, I have issue reported from Nissan dealer for my Nissan Rogue 2014 model -first owner. It just did 56487 miles and I have done regular servicing maintenance for oil changes as per standards. Despite all this ,on (13th Aug 2022) the issue started I noticed lurching,jerk and stalls whenever I stop at intersection or comes to sudden halt with warning in dashboard. I have to put the gear to Park mode and switch on the car again and it starts with slight jerk and able to drive . as such there are no warning lights when car is started. Just happened 2-3 times and I had to let it at dealer for diagnostics on (15th Aug 2022) the dealer said my transmission is defective and has issues and out of warranty since they consider only 1st 7 yrs and I am at a loss to replace transmission and problem was reported for one more timing solenoid problem .i was told one of the 3 solenoid is also having …
I took my Nissan rouge in September 2021 to a mechanic to check my car. I explained I was driving to From Tampa to Orlando in the i-4 and I could. Or accelerate, the car speed stayed at 40 mph speed , and not going more than that. I had to pull over because my car was almost wanting to shut off. Very scary situation. After my mechanic checked my vehicle, he advised me that my transmission was faulty and that I should not drive it far distance as I did. The worst part is that my Nissan never gave me any warning of the issue. My mechanic gave me a price of over $3000,which I could not afford. Now I have a car that has a bad transmission and no money to fix it.
Vehicle while on expressway would loose power on and off. This cause for serious accident conditions. Transmission yellow warning light appeared on next day. Had vehicle towed to dealership and they confirmed there was an issue found extreme hesitstion entering gear or changing gear. From multiple codes P0841 fluided press sen/sw A. P17F0 CVT Judder. Also, found front sway bar link loose and replaced. And, Tie rods had to be replaced also because of being loose. Previously I also had to have the control arms replace twice. This is unacceptable. Beside that my vehicle was in shop from 8/9/2021 thru 8/26/202. without even to have rental car provided. except for 2 days.
My transmission failed. There was a recall on the transmission, that I am not sure I received. Nissan Consumer Affairs opened a case but will not assist me with the cost of the transmission. I have to pay 5621.00 to have a new transmission installed. Nissan admitted had a faulty part in the 2014-2017 Rogues - the CVT. The transmission was slipping and it could have led to an accident, but did not. The vehicle was inspected by the Nissan dealership and they are installing a new transmission. Is there anything you can do to assist me. Thanks
This is confirmed by Nissan Dealer: The vehicle speed is, or was, reduced by the CVT fail-safe (reduced vehicle speed) after continuous operation under the following conditions: High RPM and/or high speed driving (RPM of 4000+ or speeds of 65 mph [104.6 km/h] for 1.0 - 1.5 hrs. or more) Driving in ambient temperature of 96 degrees or higher Climbing steep or extended hills for 6 miles (9.6 km) or more Whine or rattle type noise occurring during reduced engine performance (vehicle speed decrease)
1. There is a problem with the vibration of the CVT when the car is driving, causing the engine to stall 2. The driver's desk and chair are shaking. Water leaks in the car, navigation not working, seats wobbling, problems with the CVT, etc. And the service of the manufacturer and dealer is very bad, I am very dissatisfied.
Driving down interstate. Vehicle stopped accelerating without warning. Rpm increasing but felt like vehicle was in neutral. Had to cross several lanes while unable to accelerate to be able to get to shoulder of hwy.
Vehicle shutters while driving in the rain/snow. Only while precipitating. Has been looked over by multiple mechanics and there is absolutely nothing they can find wrong besides a possible electrical issue.
