2011 Nissan Rogue transmission- I was picking my dad up to go to hospital where my sister was having a heart cath, as I put it in reverse it started jumping, my dad says what is that it feels like your transmission. We go through mcdonald's drive thur and it starts jumping. When leaving work it starts jumping losing power so I took it the next day to East tn Nissan they said it was my transmission. I find it hard to believe that only the 2011 Rogue is the only one that doesn't have the extended warranty to 120,000 miles.
When making turns car loses power and at times stops completely. Electrical issues include navigation system and interior/ dashboard lights not coming on or popping on randomly. Moon roof will not open/close unless I keep pushing the button 10 or more times.
It started as just a cracking noise only when turning the steering wheel to make turns and took it to 2 different mechanics but neither could figure out what is was so now my car is parked til I can come up with almost 700 to 800 dollars to have the cv axels and more replaced.
As the car picks up spped it looses power.you can only go 20 miles an hour or less. If you let the car cool down it will pick up speed but 15 minutes later the same thing continues to occure..
Nissan was well aware that the cvt transmission on my 2011 Nissan Rogue was eventually going to give out. Why only recall some vehicles when clearly my truck is part of that recall. I'm a single mother of 2 kids. I work hard and need my car for work. I have one year left to pay on my truck and now I'm stuck paying for a car I can't drive. My transmission blew while I was driving on the highway which almost cost me my life. Nissan should be responsible for the cost to fix my truck. I will never buy another Nissan car and I will tell anyone who listens how cruel this company is. Beware and stay away from any vehicle that have the cvt transmission. I will be reporting this to the better business bureau.

Nissan did extended warranty for 10 years and 120,000 miles for the transmission up to year 2010. My vehicle is a 2011 which falls short of there warranty. They should have give this warranty to all there vehicles if they were sure they fix the issue.
With no prior warning as I was coming up my driveway and turned to go into the garage, suddenly, without warning, my car would not move forward when the accelerator was pushed.
At around 92,000 miles (exactly a month after my 90,000 mile service at a Nissan dealership) on 11/15/2018, the transmission failed on an exit ramp of I-40 at lebanon, tn. The car would lurch and go forward so I was able to get off the exit ramp and into a parking lot. Aaa towed car to Nissan cookeville where they said a low pump pressure caused the transmission to fail. They replaced this transmission with a rebuilt transmission and I was able to drive the 150 miles back home. On 11/29/2018, while sitting at a red light after pulling off I-140 in alcoa, tn, I pressed the accelerator and my car would not go. I was sitting in the middle lane at 5:30pm on a dark, rainy Thursday night. I had to call 911. It took a police officer 10 to 15 minutes to get there. The area where I was is right off I-140 exit ramp. I ended up backing traffic up on an interstate because my car would not go. Thankfully, no one wrecked into me. Since I could not tow my car 150 miles back to cookeville, I took it to the alcoa dealership. Where I was told they would not honor the replaced transmission from the cookeville Nissan dealership. So, I am out over $4,000, have no transportation, and have no income to buy a replacement vehicle because of the $4,000 I spent 2 weeks ago on another transmission. I am terrified of cvt transmissions. I am sickened that I have no resources to help me at least fight the $4,000 for the transmission that failed 2 weeks after being put in my car. This car is incredibly dangerous to drive, as evidenced by the fact that I was blocking traffic in a major intersection, in the rain, at night, during heavy traffic. I do not have the documentation with me as it is with my car at the alcoa dealership, but I will be willing to provide once I am able to get to my car.
I was on a city street and when I accelerate the RPM's shoot up to 6,000/7,000 with no power and then drops back off to 1,000. Almost as if I had floored the accelerator but without doing so.
Driving on highway/ expressway 70 mph when car suddenly stops accelerating and drops to 20 mph. Foot pressed down to floor and will not move. Car will not drive up hills after driving for 30 minutes or more on highway.
On 11/3/18, I stopped my 2011nissan Rogue to let a friend out of the vehicle. I put the car in drive and nothing happened. The car would not go into gear. I had it towed to aaa the next day and they diagnosed the problem as the cvt transmission. They advised me to contact Nissan Consumer Affairs because this is a common problem they see with Nissan and Consumer Affairs would be able to help. I contacted Nissan Consumer Affairs on November 5 and "adam" was very understanding. He checked my VIN # and said that my vehicle was not specifically covered under the extended warranty, but that Nissan would still be willing to assist with the repair costs. He said I would have to have the vehicle towed to a Nissan service center and have a diagnostic done by them as a first step. I told him a diagnostic had already been done by aaa, but he said Nissan had to do it themselves in order to make the necessary repairs. I then had the car towed to sansone 66 in neptune city, NJ. I had another diagnostic done which confirmed that the problem was the cvt transmission. I then contacted Nissan Consumer Affairs again to advise them that the diagnostic was completed. They told me that a different department in Nissan Consumer Affairs would be contacting me the next day with information on how my problem was going to be resolved. I was then contacted by Consumer Affairs rep "quincy" on November 11. She advised me that she would be making the decision on how/if Nissan would be resolving my cvt problem. I asked her if she had received a copy of the diagnostic report from sansone so she could use that to render her decision. She said that she had not, but that her decision would in large part be based on "customer loyalty". I asked what she meant and was told that she was referring to past service history at Nissan dealers. She denied me any assistance with the repair.
The contact owns a 2011 Nissan Rogue. While driving 45 mph, the contact heard an abnormal popping sound. In addition, the transmission experienced a hard shift and went into limp mode. The contact was unable to drive above 20 mph. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic. The contact was informed that the gears in the transfer case fractured and there were metal shavings in the transmission fluid. The vehicle was not repaired. Apple Nissan (located at 1510 whiteford rd, york, pa 17402, (717) 755-9504) was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was also notified. The approximate failure mileage was 89,000.
After transmission heats up while driving their is a loud whinging noise. After coming to a stop the vehicle will struggle to start moving again, power hesitating and then overrevving. I took it into the dealer and was told the transmission needed replacement. The vehicle is a 2011 with 100,000 miles - it should not need a new transmission and is currently out of warranty. The cost of replacement is $3,000. The previous model years 2003-2010 warranty's were increased to 10 years 120,000 miles due to issues with the transmission. It appears to me that the issue was not fixed and warranty's again should be extended for owners of model year 2011 and beyond. Nissan should stand by their vehicles and repair and replace when issues arise.
Cat transmission overheats and subsequently will not accelerate after driving at highway speeds for over an hour. Very dangerous. The first incident took me completely by surprise on a highway in dallas entering dfw. I feel like this is the definition of a lemon but also very dangerous when not disclosed.
Transmission slips after about 200 miles on long trips. You have to stop and let it cool down before you can go on. Sometimes it may take 10-15 mins. Sometimes you have to wait over night before driving it.. when it happens the transmission will wind and you lose power with no warning. I caught myself in the middle of jacksonville fl on 95 when it happened I thought I was going to get in an accident.

The contact owns a 2011 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to engage in drive, and only engaged in reverse. The vehicle was towed to the dealer (Nissan of cool springs, 212 comtide court, franklin, tn 37067) where it was diagnosed that the power train failed and a new transmission was needed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and case number: 32149304 was opened. The approximate failure mileage was 96,000.
My 7 year old Nissan rouge started losing acceleration when I put my foot on the gas, talk about scary and dangerous. No warning lights came on. I took it to a local mechanic and he told me my transmission needed to be replaced. If I travel on the interstate at speeds between 65-75 mph for more than two hours the transmission shuts down and will not shift after coming to a complete stop, regardless of stopping on a hill or flat ground.
At only seven years and 84,000 miles the transmission is bad. The Nissan dealer told me that the transmission needs replacing and not to drive far. This is a serious problem with Nissan Rogue's and has happened to many other Nissan owners. After research I found that one owner was on the third transmission, the dealer will not replace again because it is out of warranty. There is no recall therefore leaving owners with a hugh expense and an unsafe, undrivable vehicle. This should be recalled and replaced as many times as needed. It seems as though Nissan is not fixing this transmission issue and is just replacing the same defective transmission.
Just bought this 2011 Nissan rouge from a private party and right after purchase took it to a Nissan dealer where I was told that I need a new transmission that prompted me to do some more research that there are lots of rouge with the same problem (bad transmission) including a close person who has a 2016 rouge whose transmission had to be replaced already (2016 really Nissan!!!) Nissan will not do anything
