Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I was driving for about 40 minutes uphill on a freeway when my 2013 Nissan Rogue started to lose speed. First I couldn't accelerate more than 60mph, then 45mph. I had to be towed home and was told I need a new transmission. After reading so many similar complaints, I am convinced this should be investigated and recalled.”

NHTSA complaint #11130233, filed 2018-09, 93,000 miles

“The vehicle idles and vibrates constantly when the gas pedal is used. My wheel may not vibrate 10 minutes out of a half hour drive. It either barely will take off from start or it completely floors it and excels. Feels like a diesel rugged vehicle and not a smooth normal ride like any car or SUV should ride. I complained the day it was purchased and have hated it ever since.”

“Driving uphill in interstate at about 70 MPH when vehicle began to slow down to approximately 30 MPH while I was accelerating 1 mile outside columbia sc. I was dangerously close to being run off highway. Fortunately I was in right lane and able to access emergency shoulder of road.”

NHTSA complaint #11206998, filed 2019-05, 134,000 miles

“Loss of acceleration due to overheated transmission; my 2013 Nissan Rogue with 66,000 miles on it started to lose acceleration on a major interstate (65mph to 30mph). I took it to my local dealership and they told me that this is a common problem with rogues, and that my transmission fluid was basically getting so hot it was boiling and had caused major damage to my valve body. I had to replace the valve body and put in an external coolant system which cost $2700. …”

NHTSA complaint #11109709, filed 2018-07, 66,000 miles

“As I am driving at highway speed with my cruise control on, it will all of the sudden drop acceleration and shuts off the cruise control. I can push the gas all the way to the floor and it won't do anything. This has happened to me on several occasions. I pull off the road and turn the car off and then back on but it still will barley go or sometimes it will get to a max of about 60 MPH but the RPM will rev to 5000. Usually when I get to where I'm going (to work, very late) and my car sits all day then it seems fine on the way home.”
