Nissan Rogue Forum

I am having the same transmission issues with my 2008 Nissan Rogue. And, I need some ideas on what the malfunction might be now because Nissan replaced the cvt 9 days ago -after I took it in because it was making a sound at 50mph. They took 3 wks to replace it and when I drove it home it was fine. I parked it for 4 days while I was out of town and when I returned it wouldn't break 20 mph even when floored and there was a scraping noise. It was towed back, they said the noise was from brakes rusting over the 4 days and that it would burn off and it ran fine for them. I took it to brakes plus, they said there was a metal scrap caught between the disc, they removed it at no cost. The brakes, pads, lines, fluid, etc., were found to be in fine working order. The car drove fine for for 5 more days then the power loss issue happened again while turning left at an intersection. It scared the crap out of me. I was flooring the pedal and pumping it and I only crawled at 5mph while fearing that the protective green arrow would disappear and I would get t-boned. I kept gunning it and then it started to accelerate. I drove it home about 40mph on the access roads, parked it and the next morning when I backed it out of my driveway to place it on the street for towing....it worked fine. No issues. So, I decided I would wait until it was happening, and then I would take it in for an immediate test drive. So, next day, the power surge and loss began again, so I drove it to Nissan. The service agent drives it, with me in the car and it's definately sluggish. He got the rpms up to 7-8k and the car would not advance from 35 to 40mph. Finally, I felt like I was able to show him the malfunction. So, he drops me off for 5-10 minutes while he goes with the mechanic for a ride and maybe the garage (I couldn't see because I was in a lounge area) and when he returns he says "well, it's driving fine and it's not pulling up any codes. I can't do anything if it doesn't pull codes." Then, he adds that "It's perfectly normal for a car to redline." What?????? Are you kidding me???? Does Nissan the manufacturer and the liable party want you to not keep and look at my transmission after it malfunctions 3 times in a 9 day period? It's still under the warranty they gave me 9 days ago. I left it there and told him to let it sit until the late morning or early afternoon at which time it should have issues because that's the trend. But what if it doesn't? This car ran great for 65k miles even with the burned transmission fluid -which they cited as the cause for the warranty replacement. Can anyone make any suggestions because I'm sure I'm not the only one. Also, it seems I have to tell him what to look for -as if he didn't already know or maybe isn't authorized to recognize and repair. I drive 50-100 miles/day as part of my job as a healthcare provider, so I can't afford to have a car not work or worse get me injured in an accident because then I really can't work. Thanks in advance.

At what mileage did you get your first service for the CVT?

hello everyone. after leasing a 2005 murano for 42 months i leased a 2009 rogue sl awd. within 2 weeks i began to complain about a abnormal drive line vibration. i have read on numerous forums that nissan and the dealers state it is normal. i asked what did they inspect and they refused to tell me. i have placed videos up on you tube under : nissan rogue vibrations:. i told nissan to raise the car on a hoist and let it run in drive at idle and nissan north america, tamaroff nissan and suburban nissan state rogue operates has designed. i am spending 30 minutes a day to warn people that if they feel a vibration ask them to put it up on a hoist in drive while running at idle and make sure you see for yourself. i hope no one else has my defect but be safe once you see the videos you will be surprised at the posted repair orders at the end. be safe have it inspected

Hope this thread helps explain your problem Do they all do this ?
