The CVT Transmission in my 2014 Nissan Rogue was replaced by Nissan in 2018 at 30K miles. Now 52K the CVT Transmission has malfunctioned once again. Nissan has a Class Action Lawsuit on this issue. Nissan is refusing to pay to have this CVT replaced even though they know it is a failed and potentially unsafe system. I am now passed the time limits of the original new warranty, but not passed the mileage limits. The vehicle can be available for inspection. The problem began a few months ago when the vehicle stalled (lost all power) at least three times on the freeway and/or side streets. The vehicle totally lost all power. I had to slowly drift to the side of the highway and then the vehicle restarted. On the side street the vehicle stalled, and I put the vehicle in park and then the vehicle started up again. A few weeks ago, the engine light came on which prompted me to take the vehicle to the Nissan dealer for inspection. They could not reproduce the issue but, told me I needed another CVT transmission due to Code P1740.
about 2 years ago (2021) both me and my wife's my nissan cvt transmission went out and needed repair. In my case the transmission overheated, losing power while driving 80mph almost leaving me and my family stranded on the highway while coming back from trip late at night. Took car to dealership where they diagnosed transmission had overheated. After contacting manufacturer Nissan they offered to repair the transmission. Now today [XXX] I took my car in again because the transmission seems to not switching gears as it should. To which After diagnostic and road tests the dealer advise I needed a new transmission which will cost at minimum $5000! This is the same dealership the transmission was supposedly "repaired" 2 years ago. After further research on my own I found out nissan vehicles has had a history of transmission issues with its cvt transmission. In both instances there could have been an accident. Why weren't nissan owners made aware of their faulty transmissions? Attached is a document I found while doing research showing they were aware of their transmission issues and chose not to make its customers aware. By paying out settlements. The document shows vehicles up to model year 2010. However me and my wife's vehicles was model year 2014. Bought the same time and had transmission issues around the same time! This is not a coincidence. Its a pattern. So I'm sure there are other later model years that may have same issues but Nissan is reluctant to admit that. Something needs to be done! Nissan needs to be held accountable for placing its customer's lives at risk. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Bought new 2014 In 2019 new transmission cvt issue Dealer replaced and now 90K transmission blown Car wouldnt do anything Driving on 5Fwy Middle lane doin 62 and it just stopped, it jerked so hard and cut all power When stopped couldnt put it in park
When my daughter was driving down the interstate, with a 65 mph speed limit, the car started slowing down. It would not allow her to go any faster than 40 mph. She pulled over to let the engine cool some and continued to have the problem. When we consulted the Nissan dealer, they said it was a -??safety mechanism-?? to keep the car from overheating. I certainly don-??t see how it is safe to be forced to drive a speed limit too slow for the interstate. Why is this not recalled? I see there are many more complaints with the same issue.
My transmission failed. There was a recall on the transmission, that I am not sure I received. Nissan Consumer Affairs opened a case but will not assist me with the cost of the transmission. I have to pay $5621 to have a new transmission installed. Nissan admitted had a faulty part in the 2014-2017 Rogues - the CVT. The transmission was slipping and it could have led to an accident, but did not. The vehicle was inspected by the Nissan dealership and they are installing a new transmission. Is there anything you can do to assist me. Thanks

The CVT transmission lost power, deceleratted on highway causing significant loss of speed. Nissan knows of this manufacturing defect and fails to help. Driving these vehicles put occupants and others on the road at great risk. Nissan should replace these transmission free of charge to the customer.
The vehicle has a CVT issue that causes the error code P17F1. The vehicle has 143K plus mileage as a result Nissan doesn't was to fix it. The car stalls while in motion and has to be stopped and restarted presenting a huge safety concern. The sad part is Nissan knows about this quality issue and there was no recall to fix it. Now they are using the high mileage as the reason to not fix the problem. On 10/2/2022, while the following traffic, the car stalled and nearly cause a pill up if the driver behind me wasn't smart enough to divert quickly to another lane. Please I need help.
Hi, I have issue reported from Nissan dealer for my Nissan Rogue 2014 model -first owner. It just did 56487 miles and I have done regular servicing maintenance for oil changes as per standards. Despite all this, on (13th Aug 2022) the issue started I noticed lurching, jerk and stalls whenever I stop at intersection or comes to sudden halt with warning in dashboard. I have to put the gear to Park mode and switch on the car again and it starts with slight jerk and able to drive. as such there are no warning lights when car is started. Just happened 2-3 times and I had to let it at dealer for diagnostics on (15th Aug 2022) the dealer said my transmission is defective and has issues and out of warranty since they consider only 1st 7 yrs and I am at a loss to replace transmission and problem was reported for one more timing solenoid problem.i was told one of the 3 solenoid is also having problem. it happened even while i come at slow speeds and merge at Highway too. This is dangerous to drive when such things happen. I am not happy with the car hardly 7 yrs and coming to halt to give a big expense for such a brand car and puts safety of passengers on risk in just around 50K mileage range.

The contact stated that the manufacturer failed to honor the class-action lawsuit settlement associated with the transmission failure. The failure mileage was approximately 180,000.
1. There is a problem with the vibration of the CVT when the car is driving, causing the engine to stall 2. The driver's desk and chair are shaking. Water leaks in the car, navigation not working, seats wobbling, problems with the CVT, etc. And the service of the manufacturer and dealer is very bad, I am very dissatisfied.
In August 2021, my CVT transmission went out while traveling out of state. The vehicle was only 6 years old and had just recently reached 100,000 miles. There was no prior warning that would have alerted me to this issue, and the vehicle was checked out before taking the road trip. After having to tow the vehicle to a repair shop, I had to get a rebuilt CVT transmission from Nissan which took over a month. My family and I had to fly back home and were without a vehicle for over a month. In May 2022, while on another road trip, my vehicle stopped accelerating, the check engine light came on, and wouldn't shift. After turning off the vehicle for a while, it started shifting again. On July 3, 2022, the same issue happened again. I will have to take the "new" CVT transmission in again for a transmission issue.
I was driving on the highway on my way to work when the check engine light came on in my car. I was pressing my foot on the pedal and trying to accelerate but my car wasn't gaining any speed. It got to the point where I started to lose speed and had to pull over on the side of the highway. When i was pressing on the pedal i heard a pumping like sound but the rpms were not going up at all and the car wasn't moving. Going in reverse did not work either. I waited around 20 minutes for the car to cool down and I was then able to drive at low speed to work. No one but me has looked at the car so far.
When operating the vehicle under normal conditions the rear drive shaft cracked suddenly. The car began to shake and the smell of burning lubricant became noticeable. There was no impact that caused the crack.

The contact was able to restart the vehicle and continued driving however, the failure reoccurred increasingly while driving. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled and failed to restart after several attempts. The vehicle was towed to another local Pep Boys where it was diagnosed that there was corrosion around the battery and the uncleaned engine oil caused the mechanical failure. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT) needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 125,000.

2014 Nissan Rogue 103,600 miles, was running errands on my lunch break, made first stop and as I was pulling forward to a stop sign, vehicle lurched forward, hard jerk like motion, felt as if I was rear ended. Drove vehicle a mile further, stopped the vehicle turned off the engine went into a store, upon return vehicle started immediately, however upon putting the vehicle in drive or reverse, vehicle immediately stalled. Attempted same action a few times, same result. Check engine light would illuminate when vehicle would stall. No prior warnings, no prior issues. Vehicle towed to dealer, dealer advises torque converter issue, and a new transmission will be needed. Thank you Nissan, after years of battery drain issues and replacing the battery several times in few years & no resolve to that, this is what I get, can't say I'm surprised. Lets not forget the 2016 recall for the fuel pump issue that left me in my vehicle stalled out several times in rush hour traffic, unable to move the vehicle, & that was after the recall was "taken care of". Have read many horror stories now, and I'm convinced Nissan is selling junk to everyone, and they know it. The class actions are doing nothing to keep them from selling faulty vehicles. They were forced to stand behind their product for up to 120K miles up to year 2013 but after 2013 they're forced into a not so generous 84K miles extension. They claim their vehicles last up to 180K miles, but won't stand behind that claim. BOGUS! Will never buy another Nissan again!
