2009 Nissan Rogue Other Problems

Your Rogue won't accelerate properly even when you press the gas pedal all the way down. On the highway, after driving for a while, your car loses speed and won't maintain it no matter how hard you push the accelerator. This creates a serious safety risk, especially at highway speeds. The issue may be related to a transmission problem that requires professional diagnosis and repair.

Your CVT transmission is leaking fluid and failing. You may notice sluggish acceleration after stopping at traffic lights, jerking and sputtering while driving on the freeway, a hot smell, and unusual vibrations when the engine engages. The transmission fluid is likely low due to the leak, which is causing the transmission to slip and perform poorly. Repairing this will likely require transmission fluid refill and inspection, or potentially a full transmission rebuild or replacement depending on the damage.

DRIVERS SIDE DOOR OCCASIONALLY WILL NOT OPEN. IT CAN NEVER BE OPENED FROM OUTSIDE, BUT THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL TIMES WHEN I'M INSIDE AND GO TO OPEN THE DOOR TO GET OUT, AND IT WONT OPEN. THIS IS WITH ENGINE TURNED OFF, CAR IN PARK, AND DOORS UNLOCKED. IN AN EMERGENCY, SUCH AS CAR STALLING ON A RAILROAD TRACK/CAR SINKING IN A POND/ENGINE ON FIRE - I COULD BE STUCK INSIDE!

WHEN STOPPED CAR STARTS A SMELL LIKE GAS

WHEN I AM DRIVING ON HIGHWAY OR FREEWAY THE SPEED IS DECREASING LITTLE BY LITTLE I AM REALLY SCARED BECAUSE IT IS A RISKY SITUATION

DEFECTIVE DOOR HANDLE/LOCKING ASSEMBLY. BOTH FRONT DOORS HANDLE ASSEMBLY FROZE UP PREVENTING ME FROM OPENING BOTH DOORS. IN THE MEAN TIME MY WIFE HAD CLIMB FROM THE BACK SEAT TO OPEN THEDOOR FROM THE INSIDE. ONE TIME SHE STOPPED AT THE TOP OF THE DRIVEWAY TO GET THE MAIL ON A SNOWY WINDY DAY, SHE PULLED UP NEXT TO THE MAILBOX GOT OUT FOR A SECOND AND THE DOOR BLEW SHUT LOCKING MY 2 YEAR OLD SON, THE KEYS AND HER PHONE IN THE BACK SEAT THANKFULLY NEIGHBOR WAS HOME AND USED A COAT HANGER TO ACTIVATE THE LATCH . THIS COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE. I CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER SHIP AND PAID 99 BUCKS TO DIAGNOSE AND THEY SAY I NEED TO REPLACE THE LATCHES AND IT WILL COST ABOUT 900 BUCKS !! ONLINE AND ANOTHER MECHANIC HAVE SAID THIS IS A RECALLED ISSUE AND THE LATCHES FREEZE AND THEY WILL REPLACE FREE OF CHARGE AND THERE IS EVEN AND ADDENDUM TO AD ADDITIONAL INSULATION TO LATCHES TO PREVENT FUTURE FREEZE UPS. I AM GOING TO TRY TO CALL ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND CORPORATE NISAAN IF I HAVE TOO. SOME ONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH INFORMATION ON THIS SAFTEY ISSUE.

HORN WILL ONLY WORK WHEN THE WHEELS ARE TURNED TO THE RIGHT.

THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY LOSE ACCELERATION FOR NO REASON. I BROUGHT THIS CAR FOR MY GRANDDAUGHTER AND SHE HAS ALMOST GOTTEN HIT A COUPLE OF TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE READ SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE. SHE WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE SPEED DROPPED ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THIRTY THEN TO TWENTY. SHE HAD TO PULLED OVER ONTO SHOULDER AND WAIT ABOUT TEN MINUTES BEFORE SHE COULD PROCEED, IT STILL WOULD NOT GO OVER FORTY EVEN THOUGH SHE HAD THE PEDAL FLOORED. SINCE THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH SO MANY CARS PLEASE MAKE NISSAN FIX IT.

I PURCHASED MY 2009 NISSAN ROGUE IN DECEMBER 2016 WITH 110K MILES ON IT. IN MARCH 2017 I BEGAN NOTICING ISSUES WITH MY VEHICLE WHILE ON LONG TRIPS. THE FIRST LONG TRIP I TOOK WAS IN MARCH 2017 AND ABOUT 150 MILES INTO THE TRIP MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 65-70MPH WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN THE SPEED LIMIT IS 85MPH. THE ISSUE DID NOT RESOLVE ITSELF AND I TURNED MY VEHICLE OFF FOR SEVERAL HOURS AND DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS AFTER THAT. I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED IT FROM TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AND WAS TOLD IT WAS A CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH I FOUND THAT NISSAN ACTUALLY ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE BUT DID NOT ISSUE A RECALL. MY VEHICLE IS OUTSIDE OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY PERIOD BUT THE EXACT ISSUE I AM HAVING IS THE EXACT ISSUE THE WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED FOR. I WAS UNAWARE OF ANY EXTENDED WARRANTY WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE BECAUSE I DID NOT PURCHASE FROM A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY HAVE OFFERED TO FIX THE ISSUE AT 50% COST TO ME. I AM NOT OKAY WITH PAYING 50% OF A REPAIR FOR A KNOWN DEFECT ON THEIR CVT TRANSMISSIONS FOR MY MODEL YEAR. WHY WASN'T A RECALL ISSUED ON THIS? THIS IS DANGEROUS. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED TWICE BECAUSE MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND I SHOULD BE ABLE TO TAKE MY VEHICLE ON LONG TRIPS WITHOUT WORRYING ABOUT TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THERE IS AN INTERNAL WHISTLE IN MY TRANSMISSION AND I WAS TOLD BY THE REPAIR TECH AT NISSAN THAT THIS IS THE FIRST INDICATION OF THE CVT ISSUE. I WILL NOT BE PAYING FOR THIS REPAIR, A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED ON THIS PROBLEM. THERE ARE MANY OTHER NISSAN CONSUMERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE AND I WILL BE JOINING A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT ON THIS MATTER AS WELL.

AFTER DRIVING A LONG PERIOD TIME USUALLY ABOUT 40 MINUTES INTO DRIVING. CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE ACTUALLY LOSES POWER. START TO DECELERATE. THIS CAN CAUSE AND INJURY OR MAYBE DEATH WHEN ON THE HIGHWAY.

I HAVE A 2009 NISSAN ROGUE. I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE SINCE 2012 AND IT JUST CAME TO MY ATTENTION, WHILE I WAS IN PARK, IN MY DRIVEWAY WHEN MY 6 YR OLD WAS ASKING MY ABOUT WHAT THE LETTERS NEXT TO THE GEAR SHIFTER MEANT WHEN HE GRABBED THE SHIFTER, ENGAGED THE BUTTON AND PULLED IT DOWN INTO REVERSE WITHOUT ME APPLYING THE BREAK. I THOUGHT TO MYSELF, IT SHOULD NOT HAVE DONE THAT. I THOUGHT MAYBE I HAD A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE THAT I MIGHT NOT HAVE KNOWN ABOUT, SO I LOOKED IT UP AND THERE WAS NOTHING FOR MY VEHICLE. HOWEVER FOR THE 2015 MODELS, SOME OF THEM DID HAVE A RECALL FOR A ROLLAWAY PROBLEM. I CALLED MY DEALER AND ASKED THEM ABOUT MY PROBLEM AND THEY TOLD ME THAT BECAUSE THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY VEHICLE THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT THE PROBLEM UNLESS I WANTED TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AND FOR THEM TO FIND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. I LOOKED UP THIS PROBLEM AND IT IS AROUND A $700 FIX. IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2015 MODELS THERE COULD BE A POSSIBLITIY THAT MY VEHICLE COULD HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM.

OUTSIDE LATCHES FAILED SIMULTANEOUSLY CAR WAS PARKED WINTER DAY 25 DEGREES F (CAR WAS STORED OUTSIDE ALL EVENING AND DRIVEN). PASSENGER COULD NOT GET OUT. I GOT OUT AND WENT TO UNLOCK DOOR AND NO LUCK, TRIED KEY AND NO LUCK. WENT TO DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AND COULD NOT GET IN. HAD TO ENTER THE VEHICLE FROM THE REAR DOORS. VEHICLE HAD HISTORY OF THIS BEING REPLACED, BUT AS A SECOND USED CAR OWNER WAS NOT TOLD OF PROBLEM AND NISSAN SAYS BECAUSE I WAS NOT CONSIDERED A LOYAL CUSTOMER AND THAT THE DOORS WERE NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY.

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY USING SPEED CONTROL AT 70 MPH MY CAR SUDDENLY KICKED OUT OF SPEED CONTROL AND DECELERATED 20 MPH. MY CAR THEN REFUSED TO ACCELERATE OVER 60 MPH. THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS ABOVE 90 DEGREES AND I HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR 5 AND A HALF HOURS WITH 2 BRIEF STOPS. NO LIGHTS CAME ON, AND THE CAR DID NOT INDICATE IT WAS OVERHEATING. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO MY NORMAL REPAIR PERSON AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS MY TRANSMISSION. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THEY HAD A SERVICE BULLETIN THAT MATCHED MY EXACT ISSUE AND COMPLAINT. HOWEVER, THEY COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE ISSUE SO I WAS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE TEMPERATURE OF THE FLUID IN MY TRANSMISSION AND A NEW TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SOLVE THAT PROBLEM. THEY FLUSHED MY TRANSMISSION AND CHECKED MY FLUID LEVELS. THEY SUGGESTED IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN I PURCHASE A PART THAT IS ADDED TO THE TRANSMISSION TO COOL DOWN THE TRANSMISSION FLUID AT MY OWN EXPENSE. THEY ALSO STATED THAT MANY OTHER ROGUES DRIVERS HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND SUGGESTED I CONTACT NISSAN.

I RECENTLEY TOOK MY CAR INTO THE SHOP BECUASE MY SUNROOF WAS OFF ALIGNED BUT THE GUY PRESSED SOME BUTTON TO TRY AND RESET IT HIMSELF INSTEAD OF SENDING IT INTO THE SHOP TO HAVE IT INSPECTED THE RIGHT WAY. SO I NEEDED TO TRAVEL OUT OF TOWN FOR AN FAMILY EMERGENCY AND WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY MY SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE RIDING ON THE HIGHWAY. I FEEL LIKE IF HE WOULD HAVE WENT ABOUT IT THE RIGHT WAY WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN ALL OF THIS WOULD OF HAVE BEEN AVOIDED.

I TAKE MY CAR A LOT OF TIMES TO THE DEALER FOR THE TIRES LIGHT SENSOR THEY TURN IT OFF AND ASS SOON I DRIVE THE CAR THE LIGHT COMES OUT AGAIN THAT HAPPENED LIKE 5 TIMES TILL THEY SAY THE CAR HAS A RECALL......

I PURCHASED A 2009 NISSAN ROGUE. APPROXIMATELY 3 WEEKS AGO (1/7/10) THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR HANDLE BROKE. I WAS UNABLE TO ENTER MY VEHICLE THROUGH THE DRIVERS SIDE. THE DOOR OPENS FROM THE INSIDE, BUT I CAN'T OPEN THE VEHICLE FROM THE OUTSIDE. I WENT TO KINGSTON NISSAN, IN KINGSTON, NY 12401 AND ADVISED THEM OF THE PROBLEM. A MECHANIC LOOKED AT MY VEHICLE AND ADVISED ME THAT A NEW HANDLE WAS NEEDED. I THOUGHT THIS TYPE OF PART COULD BE EASILY FIXED, BUT I WAS WRONG. AS OF TODAY, (1/28/10) MY VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. KINGSTON NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENT ADVISED ME THAT THEY CAN NOT FIND A REPLACEMENT PART AND THAT THE PART(S) ARE COMING FROM JAPAN AND WOULD ARRIVE UNTIL FEBRUARY 7TH, 2010. I MUST WAIT OVER A MONTH TO GET MY VEHICLE FIXED. IN THE MEANTIME, THE ONLY WAY TO ACCESS MY VEHICLE IS BY USING THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AND CLIMB OVER THE SEATS. IF I WERE PHYSICALLY UNABLE TO CLIMB OVER THE SEATS, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO OPERATE MY VEHICLE. FORTUNATELY, I AM ABLE, BUT IF A PERSON WAS NOT, THEY WOULD EITHER HAVE TO RENT A VEHICLE OR USE SOME OTHER MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. I FIND THIS PROBLEM INEXCUSABLE. A SIMPLE DOOR HANDLE PART MUST BE SENT FROM JAPAN TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. PLEASE ASSIST ME IN FINDING A BETTER SOLUTION. ALSO, I HAVE RECENTLY RECEIVED SEVERAL RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. I FEEL THAT NISSAN IS PROVIDING INADEQUATE SERVICE TO ITS CUSTOMERS AND MAYBE SUPPLYING INADEQUATE VEHICLES AND POTENTIALLY UNSAFE VEHICLES TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. TW*
