The nissan rogue had a cvt transmission replaced by the dealer after it stopped running on the highway in 2013 with only 70,000 miles on the vehicle. The transmission failed again, 2 years later, while driving on the highway again. Nissan failed to do anything to assist me the second time with this vehicle. The vehicle was in motion on the freeway both times. There have been many issues with the cvt transmission. *tr

My nissan rogue will periodically stop acceleration while i am driving on the highway. I have the pedal pushed all the way down and the car will not accelerate. I will be going the posted speed and for no apparent reason, my car will start to de-accelerating on its own. After reading several complaints i am finding out that this is due to the cvt transmission in this particular model. This is a safety hazard to…

The cvt transmission oil overheats at long driving periods and the transmission / car goes into limp mode and the speed drops immediately and significantly and will not be driveable until the oil cools down. Very dangerous because this only happens on the highways at high speeds. Also, after the vehicle enters this "limp mode", if you exit the highway and stop at a traffic light or stop sign, the vehicle will then…

I have had my replacement transmission for two weeks and it is already having signs of failing. I have nearly been in multiple major wrecks because the transmission will cut out when trying to enter a highway or pull…

Cvt continues to fail. It was replaced at 73k miles after failing; it now is going into fail safe mode due to overheating issues. This seems to be very common rogue problem. I was told that the 100k warranty would be for the replacement cvt but am now being told by dealer that repairs were 12k or 12 months. Cvt is showing signs of poor shifting and power loss on hills. Frequently won't start moving for few seconds…
