We had the sam problem on a long trip with semi's barelling down on us on every hill on the highway. i do think it is somehow a transmission temperature issue. When it happened it was 100 degrees outside in July and every time we stopped the car and turned it off the problem would go away. 3 more hours into our trip the issue would start up again. It got really bad and we pulled off into a Nissan dealership. My mistake was turning off the car. Once it had a chance to cool down the issue was gone and Nissan said they could not replicate it but the technician said they had problems on some of the cars with it going into the safe mode. My husband drives the car 30 miles each way to work and we don't have the problem but I had the issue twice on long trips in hot summer months. Can't wait to get rid of the car even if Nissan would agree to fix the problem.

I am currently experiencing transmission problems with my 2008 rogue, 55,000 miles. While trying to go uphill, about 2 or 3 hrs into the drive my car decelerated to the point semis were passing me. Wouldn't go above 2000rpms and also getting bad gas mileage. After getting off the highway and resting the car worked fine. Day 2 - seemed to work fine but when I got off highway and came to a stop, upon reacceleration it would barely move & then slam up to 4000 RPGs then back down causing a bucking sensation. Also whirring sound when I press the gas and burning smell. Also back of my car was covered in purple fluid drops. We are 2 days into a 3 week drive across country with our 3 yr old child. I'm afraid to drive it. Have an appt at dealer on Monday.

I had the exact same issue just this past Sunday. My Rogue left me sit on the side of I-95 in Georgia. I had it towed to a shop and they said I had no transmission fluid (it was all over the back of my car). They put 7 qts of transmission fluid in and suggested I make an appt at the Nissan dealership. Well I took it there this afternoon and the are putting a new trasmission in for me. It is covered under the extended CVT warranty.
ihatethiscar1- I hope you got your issue recolved and can enjoy your trip.
Good Luck!

#119 of 165 Same issue in Canada by nockon

Jul 16, 2012 (1:11 pm)

I'm having same issue as everyone. Last March I was comming off the highway and had to make a full stop to get on secondary road. I pressed the accelerator and could barely move. About 500 feet down the road the car started accelerating. Car didn't do this again until last week. Exact same scenario just different location. 1st time I had been on the road for about 4 hrs, this time I was only driving for about 1 hr.
 
Took it to dealer today and of course they couldn't duplicate the problem. No code was shown either so they said unless I could prove the problem, they couldnt replace the transmission.
 
Has anyone thought of making a video when it happened and successfully made them change the tranny using the video? I'm leaving to go on vacation this Friday and plan on drinking over 3000km over 7 days. I will have my camera on standby if the problem arises.
 
BTW my Rogue is 2008 with 185000 km(115000 miles). In Canada the extended warranty is until 200000km so I have to get this resolved soon!!!

#120 of 165 Transmition problems by dragnue

Jul 21, 2012 (2:23 pm)

I had a 2010 Nisson Rogue. I owned it for about 4 weeks and took it on a trip to Virginia. It was a hot day and I was in trafic at an intersection. As I got the light to proceed, the car would only move at about 2 miles an hour. It struggled to get me out of the intersection. I stopped pulled over to the side. Set there for a few minutes and tried it again and it worked fine. This did not reoccurr until coming back from a short trip. I pulled into a drive to turn around and it did not want to back up. I put it in drive and the same thing happened. It did not want to go. Again I stopped and set for awhile and it run fine. I took it to the dealer and told him something was wrong, he test drove it and of course it worked fine. I told them it could get me killed. They put a new Transmittion in the next week and it worked fine since. I just traded for a 2012 Rogue, hope they have this figured out. Stay tuned.

I am experiencing the same problem. Please let me know what was Nissan's response and if the problem was solved. My dealer claims they have never heard of this issue.
thanks

#122 of 165 Nissan 2010 Rogue CVT vibe by ghrant

i have a 2010 Rogue with a CVT that i started noticing a vibration when accelerating on a freeway. I really noticed it when driving on a twisty road and my speeds had to vary a lot.
I will be taking it in soon and request repair. I'm at 60,000kms. probably would have caught it sooner but is wife's car so i rarely drive.

#123 of 165 Nissan 2011 Rogue Krom CVT Transmision Trouble by angzee72

Aug 10, 2012 (8:59 pm)

I bought my 2011 Rouge off the show room floor with a 10 year 100,000 mile warranty. I have 35,000 miles with transmission trouble. My engine light came on as i'm driving on the highway doing 65mph, I step on the gas, the transmission started to makes a whistling sound. I took it to the dealership and they said this is normal. A week later, as im driving up a hill, the transmission started to make a winding sound, and the rpm started going up and i was not going anywhere. Took the car back to the dealership and the drop the tranny pan where the found metal filings.
They told me they needed to replace the transmission and I would have my car back within 4 days.
On the 3rd day, Nissan told me that the tranny is on back order and it will take 3 to 4 weeks to receive. So as my car sits at the dealership they gave me a loner car 2012 Rouge with 5200 miles and this tranny has a bad vibration. Does anyone have the same problem?

#124 of 165 2012 NISSAN ROGUE (VIBRATION @ 18k MILES) by coralgables23

I am a new owner of a 2012 Rogue. With all honesty I fell in love with this car. With time I then started to notice wierd things on my Rouge. First the car vibrates or trembles so that you understand when first accelerating from being parked, then a loud snap coming from the back part of the car when first taking off from being parked overnight. I have plans to take it in to the Nissan Dealship soon to have these issues looked into and resolved. My car is almost new and these are the things I have noticed already unfortunately. I am hoping that the issues get resolved because I do like my Rogue and would hate to hear that the car is a failier.
