On 7/31/2020, traveling from ft. Lauderdale to sarasota, florida, on I-95, (alligator alley) around 1 hr in after turning on cruise control, (90�+ outside temps), cruising at around 82 mph . . . Car suddenly decelerated to -60 mph and, pedal to the metal, would not accelerate, continued to slow down. I pulled into a rest stop, turned it off for 20 minutes, then restarted it and used my fixd device and app. It brought up code p0744, "torque converter clutch circuit intermittent". It ran ok for the rest of the trip and the return trip but acceleration was sluggish. On 9/3/2020, same trip, same road, same 90�+ temps outside, on I-95, (alligator alley), a little over 1 hour in, no cruise control this time, car did the same exact thing: decelerated from 82 to -60 mph. I pulled into a rest stop, turned it off for a half hour, re-started it, ran the fixd app again, but this time it said "no errors", and threw no codes. Both times car was ok after being off awhile. No problems on return trip . . . But in general, acceleration is sluggish. I stopped by the dealer and the service representative said they could put the computer on it for $139 but probably couldn't diagnose it unless it was happening or some codes were stored, which was doubtful I said no thanks. This is a very dangerous problem! there are over 200 complaints about this issue/problem for this year alone, but it appears that all Rogues seem to have complaints about this exact issue of deceleration and the manufacturer acts as if it doesn't exist. Some have had to replace the transmission, some have added transmission coolers with no improvement. I've owned dozens of vehicles and have never encountered this problem before. In mid pandemic with only my ss check as income I don't know what to do. I need to drive up to NY and MA and need a safe, reliable car!.
Car did not respond to gas pedal, was on i90 trying to go 60mph with the gas pedal floored and the car was going 20mph. I pulled of the road the engine light went on, when I brought it in it said" torque converter clutch circut intermittent. Apparently so many cars have this problem that the part is on "parts restriction" from Nissan because the shops can't keep them in stock because so many cars need this part replaced.
