2017 Nissan Rouge should be recalled due to Faulty Transmission (Transmission Malfunction). 2017 Nissan Rouge is dangerous and places the life of driver, passengers and others at risk. Vehicle is available for inspection. On 07/20/2023 at approximately 10pm I arrived home with my Senior Mother and 5-year-old son who were seated in the back seat of my 2017 Nissan Rouge. I placed the car in park in my driveway, my 2017 Nissan Rouge remained in park for approximately 2 minutes while I removed an item from my driveway. When I returned to my vehicle that was in park for approximately 2 minutes with my Senior Mother and 5-year-old son in the backseat, I proceeded to turn the key that was in the ignition and pulled it out of the ignition. When I pulled the key out of the ignition the car proceeded to roll back while I was standing in the driver's door. My Mother and child began to scream that the car was moving and I was stuck between the driver's car door and the vehicle, so I reached for the emergency breaks as I was thrown to the ground, dragged and injured. Car rolled away and crashed into my neighbor's vehicle with my mother and child inside Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center: Problem was confirmed by a class action lawsuit (Case No. 3:21-cv-00099). Other Nissan Rouge car owners experienced their Nissan Rouge rolling away after placing vehicle in park due to transmission failure. Nissan did not recall the vehicles and awarded an additional 24,000 miles on the transmission past the original 60,000 miles. However, they have still not provided car owners notice of this specific issue. I never received notice that my 2017 Nissan transmission could unexpectedly fail causing my 2017 Nissan vehicle to roll away while in park with the engine off. A police report was filed with the Joliet Illinois Police Department. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure.

Occasionally, when attempting to start driving from a complete stop (from a stop sign, traffic light, etc.) the Rogue will delay to accelerate and not move more than a few miles per hour for a few seconds before fully engaging. This is a safety issue when attempting to turn left at a green light, or crossing streets from a stop sign because there is no way to tell if the Rogue will delay in accelerating until you press the gas pedal. I have found that this is more likely to start happening after driving in stop and go traffic or on a route that has frequent stops. Also, occasionally after driving in stop and go traffic, the Rogue will begin to rev high and not accelerate. In both cases, if the Rogue is turned off and restarted, the problem stops and the Rogue accelerates normally again.

Sadly disappointed in the fact that my transmission is failing and is a known issue with these vehicles. I have contacted Nissan and their Infinity Consumer Affairs has called back. I try to call them back and get nothing but a voicemail. They don-??t seem to want to address this issue. The transmission will not initially engage in either reverse or drive. It also upshifts for no reason when driving. It has about 93k miles on it and the transmission is junk. The company should have recalled all these cvt transmissions. I pulled it from my daughter to have her stop driving it due to I didn-??t want her stranded on the side of the road while Nissan dances around my issue and other customers-?? issues with these junky transmissions. I put a lot of faith in the Nissan brand to only be soured by this experience.

Transmission went out on the Freeway and from 75 miles per hour went to 15 miles per hour, scary situation and thank God we made to the shoop, and the mechanic charge me 6,000dlls for the replacement of my transmission, no fear.

My daughter and I were driving home from work when I heard a whining noise that proceeded to get louder the more I drove. We came to a stop light and the noise stopped. When I proceeded to drive again, the brake felt like it stuck and then within a minute, it let up. About a mile down the road, the whining noise got extremely loud and then we heard a loud pop like a tire popped but it didn't. The car started jerking so I pulled over. It sat for a few and when my husband got to us, it was driving ok again. I took it to the repair shop where they told me there is a internal component in the transmission that's failing. The mechanic said this is a common problem with these cars so why haven't you guys issued a recall on the cvt?? Something needs to be done about this.

When traveling at highway speeds 65 MPH, the car stopped accelerating and eventually stalled. There was no warning on the dash.

- Westlake, OH, USA

The car begins to slow down and not accelerate. Then when car is pulled over, turned off and restarted it goes back to driving normal. Happens about 3 times per day. Almost caused a pile up on highway because cars had to wait for me to Pull over on shoulder.

As I was driving, steadily pressing on my gas, and I felt the car stopping. The car sounded like it was in neutral and I was pressing on the gas but it didn-??t make a difference. I pulled over put it in park, then drive again. The problem persisted. I turned off the car and then it drove regularly. This has occurred 2 times already. I use premium gasoline and get oil changes regularly. This seems like a transmission problem. I-??m very scared this might happen when I-??m on a highway.

EVERY SINGLE TIME I DRIVE MY 2017 NISSAN ROGUE, it acts up at the worst times when I'm trying to cross a busy street with oncoming traffic, sometimes very high speed, I cannot get sufficient acceleration!! I HAVE COME SO CLOSE TO GETTING HIT THAT NOW I AM CONVINCED, IN A MATTER OF "WHEN", THAT I WILL BE HIT!! I am aware that You and Nissan are aware of the CVT being a problem that no one wants to take responsibility for. I'm keeping this report so "when I get hit" a lawsuit will be forthcoming. (Even if I die) I've instructed family to sue if I parish.

I have just purchased the car and have not driven it over 100 miles, and when the car heated up, it would not shift out of first gear. I took it to the Nissan dealership because when I called them they said there is a known issue with this CVT transmission and Nissan is replacing or repairing them at no charge. They inspected the car, and since there were no error codes they informed me that they could not do anything for me. The car cannot be driven and I do not know what to do.

While driving home on an expressway, the vehicle began to slow down and the engine rpm-??s began to increase to about 5000 rpm. The vehicle did not have any more power, and would only go about 5-10 mph. This put my daughter in danger, not being able to keep up with traffic, and quickly decelerating in traffic. The dealership has confirmed that the CVT transmission is failed, and the vehicle is currently still at the dealership awaiting replacement of the transmission. There were no messages or warning lamps when this suddenly occurred, and there were no prior warnings that anything was about to fail.

The transmission had been slipping a little here and there. Finally went out and had a dealership say there was a warranty up to 84,000 miles. Mine is under 70,000. Now I'm told the warranty is void because the fluid was the wrong color but Sorg Nissan (Warsaw, IN) will not give me any straight answers, such as the manufacturer's suggested transmission fluid. The guy I first started connecting with no longer is employed there and they want to act like it was his fault for letting me know there was a warranty. Going on 2 months without my car.

This car is known for transmission issues and there should have been a recall already. All that-??s happened is a warranty extension and a class action lawsuit. My check engine light came on and I took this car to 4 mechanics who couldn-??t determine the issue. The car stalled out in the middle of driving on a highway and while making a turn. I could have been hit. This car is DANGEROUS and Nissan is well aware of the transmission issues with this car. They knew before I even bought this car. These cars should have been pulled off of the road and repaired before allowing any more people to risk their lives driving in them. I called a transmission shop who won-??t even service my car because he-??s done so many of these Nissan rogues and can-??t even get the parts to fix them. There-??s a shortage of parts because this issue is happening so often. I-??m outside the now extended warranty so I have to get a new transmission out of pocket-??while still owing $6k on my car loan. The car is 5 years old. I-??ll never ever buy another Nissan. They are aware of this issue and putting thousands of not millions of people in danger.

My Nissan Rogue 2017 constantly stalls when I accelerate after having to stop on a hill. I live in Pennsylvania and there are a lot of hills. It mostly happens when I have my air conditioning on. I go to accelerate and the car lags. The worst occasion was on 8/20/2022. I was stopped at a light going up hill and pressed the gas pedal and it lagged for about 30 seconds. The RPM shot up and my car was only going like 30 in a 35 even with me accelerating. Once I was stopped at a light on a flat road, I turned my car off and it was fine. This consistently happens when I-??m traveling up hills and I cannot always turn my car off. It-??s terrifying when I-??m trying to make a left turn off a hill near my house and I accelerate but don-??t move fast enough. I-??m always afraid I-??ll get into an accident. If I had known about this CVT, I wouldn-??t have bought this car.

My Nissan 2017 rogue has unexpectedly lost speed (from 60 mph to less than 20 mph in less than 5 sec) on the highway with no chance of recovery and little time for other drivers to avoid my Nissan Rogue. This is an extremely dangerous scenario. There is no way to correct the situation without stopping car completely and restarting the engine on the highway.
