Automatic Transmission Torque Converter problems of the 2011 Nissan Rogue

When driving uphill the damaged torque converter caused the transmission to badly overheat, only allowing the car to go 40 mph. The torque coverter transmission issues caused the vehicle to become a hazard on the road because of the slow speed.

The vehicle will not go over 40 miles per hour makes a noise check engine light came up took it to the shop he said problem with transmission (torque converter clutch solenoid . . This issue happens when I was driving on the highway with the speed of 70m/h then the car started making the noise and rpm went up to 4 and it wont go over 40 .

On June 12, 2020, while I was driving in I-75 knoxville to chattanooga my Nissan refuce velocity and power automatically without my control stopping. I was placing from drive to park, wait some minutes wuth my energency light on. The traffic was danger behind me. Later the same situation occur in swallford exit 5 on I-75, in that way I suppose tge problem coming in high speed on interstate,because on slow not occur. I was taking my vehicle missan Rogue 2011 iat dealer they thought that tgey needed to reprogrammed the pvc sensor or air flow. Joined to torque converter clutch solenoid circuit. But the diagnosis resulted wirst than it. Dealer said me I needed to replace my transmission. U very uppset with Nissan because this vehicle is not old miles with the change if oil all the time. I change the oil transmission on dealer paid $156. 00 and they told me I need to pay $3820 for transmission. There is somrthing wrong and not ethic with tge customer. The car is a need and the Nissan should be more honest when they check the vehicle the dealers and more when the parts are done to be check or verified in the authorized or certified Nissan mechanics. I ask you for be fair and conscience in my situation because I dont believe in this kind of attention for Nissan towards customer after already paid monthly a vehicle. The recomendation toward this company will be very negative definitively reviews -10.

Vehicle has 149000 miles and machanic said transmisssion needs torque convertor clutch. Is there a recall for this item. Car would not go above 40 mph.

In response to the car shuttering around 25 to 35 mph, we took the car to our local mechanic. He reports that there is a problem with the torque converter and will require a transmission replacement by a Nissan dealer because he was aware of all of the problems that Nissan was having. He informed of of a national recall on earlier models for the same reason. He stated that they clearly have not corrected the problem. With further on-line research, we have confirmed that this is a common problem with the 2011 models.

I have a 2011 Nissan Rogue and within the past 2 months, I have been experiencing loss of acceleration on a minimal uphill slope. Both times, I was on the expressway driving about 70-75 and my speed immediately decreases to 60 and below. When I pressed the gas pedal to accelerate, nothing happened. My rmps were in the red zone- which has never happened before- and I almost got rear ended by a semi the 2nd time it happened. I immediately pulled off the road and took my car to the nearest mechanic. The diagnosis was a transmission code but because my car has a cvt transmission, he recommended taking it to a Nissan dealership as there has been many reported issues with cvt models, so much so that the warranty got extended. Upon further research, the extended warranty only covers 2003-2010 models. When I called Nissan, they of course told me I was outside of warranty as its only 5 years or 60k miles and outside of the extended warranty. They quoted me at $3600+ tax for a new transmission as they said it was the torque converter that is the issue. There are multiple forums online with story after story of the same issue being experienced by many Nissan drivers yet Nissan fails to take responsibility and address the fact that models after 2010 are experiencing the identical issues covered in the extended warranty. This is not an isolated incident. Nissan is knowingly placing faulty transmission in their vehicles then refusing to cover the service costs due to "expired warranties". Furthermore, lets address the fact that this is a severe safety hazard for drivers. Imagine driving and all of a sudden losing acceleration- will it take multiple accidents and god forbid, deaths, for Nissan and their executives to own up to their mistake? Nissan should learn from Toyota's faulty air bag scandal and rectify the issue immediately to prevent bodily injury to unsuspecting drivers.
