I was headed south on the I-5 (southern California, lots of constant traffic) when my car stopped accelerating after about 45 minutes. Going uphill, I put my pedal to the floor and wasn't going over 60mph, my rpms reaching above 4. My car made a whining noise every time I tried to accelerate. So I put my hazards on, took the closest exit, and let my car rest for about 5-10 minutes. I got back on the freeway after resting and not a minute or two later and the same problem occurred. I put my hazards back on and just pulled off on the shoulder, letting my car rest again for another 5-10 minutes. I tried again, now reaching the top of the hill and was able to finally coast down the hill the problem happening again, but this has happened multiple times before. The first in the beginning of July, the second and third around August and September, and then now. It only happens on drives about an hour long (or longer) when I go out of town.

When the engine is started cold. Sitting for 6 hours or more. There is a rattling sound coming from the engine as if there were too much engine bearing clearance. After 2 seconds the noise goes away. Dealer says they can not duplicated it but I have 2 audios of it and presented to them.

The vehicle initially would not start on 1/17/18 while parked. I called Nissan roadside and they sent a tow truck a few hours later. Vehicle was unable to be jumped. Towed to the dealership. They could not duplicate the issue. I got the vehicle back several days later and the problem occurred again. I was at work so I waited on calling for a tow and when I went back out it turned over. In March, I had the same problem and the vehicle was again stationary and could not be jumped so it was towed. The dealer told me they could not find an issue so I took the car back. On 8/18/18 I was on the interstate when I felt the car seem to lose power and heard a whining or whistling noise which I initially thought was a window slightly open. I got off the interstate and parked in the closest area I could. The vehicle would not start and I again called Nissan roadside. The dealer had the vehicle for 2-3 weeks and again returned it telling me it was ok. On 9/11/18 I went to get lunch and the vehicle stopped working in a parking lot. I took video on 9/11/18 of the problem and again had to be towed and find a ride home (1 hour from home). Now I am told the dealer added some "harness" and it should work fine so I should come pick it up. This vehicle is clearly dangerous. I was driving so I was able to handle it but if my wife or somebody else was driving I really don't know what would have happened. I have further repair orders not included in the attached documents.

While driving down the highway the power dropped to the car. The rpms dropped down to almost zero, the power to the radio and fan motor stopped as well. I went from 65 miles per hour to 35 miles per hour in a matter of seconds. Thankfully I was not hit by another car. The second issue is that the engine feels like it might stall upon start after sitting all day. This has happened multiple times. The third issue is that the bluetooth radio system has a whistling sound when trying to use this and be safe while driving. The fourth issue is that the interior back door pulls to close the door both pop out and cannot be pushed back into place. The vehicle has been away from me for a significant amount of time so Nissan can try and make repairs. Consumer affairs told us that simply there was no fix for the bluetooth issue and that the back door pulls was a design flaw from the manufacturer.
Cvt transmission. One owner comepletes all regular maintenance. While driving on the interstate the car makes a whining noise, loses power and will not accelerate. This caused semis to grid lock I moved off road to avoid getting hit and causing a multi car pile up. I look up and see complaints of the same nature by the 100's and sadly Nissan isn't willing to address the issue with the cvt on later models but extended the warranty on previous models with the same transmission.
The 2013 Nissan Rogue was built without having a coolant valve on the transmission. I can be driving down the road and all of a sudden the rpm on my car with begin going very high and the speedometer will never move all the while I am pressing the gas down to the floor. The car is going almost only 20 or 30 miles per hour at this point. I am not going up a hill or going very fast I usually only travel about 60 or 65 mph. It makes a whining sound and will not accelerate. I did take this issue up with my local Nissan dealership and they said what is happening is since there is no valve to keep the transmission cool then it overheats and loosing acceleration is a kind of way of "self-diagnosing" and attempting to cool down-due to there not being a valve on the car during manufacturing. I do indeed have an extended warranty for 100,000 miles up to 5 years, but they said they can not pay for the part because it was not on the car when it was made. They said they will not pay for parts to be put on the car. On November 25, 2015 Nissan put out a service bulletin on how to put the part on and are well aware that Rogues from 2008-2013 do not have this valve. I feel very unsafe that my car could lose acceleration at any point-and it has on the interstate, highway, and many other places. Nissan states that the Rogue had everything on it it was supposed to, but they can't tell me how they can put a bulletin out on how to fix this issue and they know this issue needs to be fixed, but then won't pay for the issue. I really feel there needs to be some type of recall on a car that does not have the proper valve on it to keep it from overheating. That sounds like a real safety issue to me, a single mother who works and travels with 2 small children.
Item one-whining noise when accelerating item 2-engine intermittently shuts off when stopping at an intersection.

Tl-the contact owns a 2013 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving various speeds, the vehicle stalled without warning. In addition, the vehicle made a loud whining noise upon continued acceleration. Cannon Nissan of jackson, mississippi was made aware of the failure and stated that there was no recall on the vehicle.

Car transmission makes whining sound. As you drive up an incline it gets worse. Car shuts down while driving. You are forced to pull over as you have no power. After 5 -10 minutes the car will start up again. Car was brought to Nissan and they were aware of the issue. They installed an external oil cooler as their cvt transmission has issues with overheating. This is most definitely a safety issue as the car just shuts down and apparently this is a known problem by Nissan. Nissan charged $1000 to fix the issue which should be a recalled safety issue with the car. There have been numerous complaints and situations where this has happened to other Rogue owners.
Was returning from trip north carolina back home to tennessee once about hour away felt car just start slowing down car wouldn't accelerate when pushing on gas. Was able to get to right hand lane and get off interstate just before car went to a crawl. Car was making whining noise while trying to move car from highway. Car came to stop and unable to move again. Had car towed back to my house sent to shop to find out that transmission had malfunctioned. Doing research on transmission found out the Nissan rouge is using cvt transmission and that Nissan extended the warranty to 120k or 10 years. My reasearch also found out that other Nissan owners of Rogue and murranos were having issues with cvt transmission. When I found out that about the warranty I called Nissan consumer care to inquire about this. I was told my model and make qualified under warranty and that mileage didn't matter. Nissan decided not to assist me with repair and replacement of transmission. I tried to tell Nissan about letter that stated they would decrease cost even above 120k. They refused to do so. I had no warning sensors that there was problem with transmission. This could have been a bad accident if the transmission had of went out during heavy traffic. It appears reading about other owners experiences with cvt transmissions that Nissan doesn't want to own up to having a faulty transmission. Even speaking with mechanics from outside and with Nissan that this transmission is faulty and many have issues and complainants about it.

On Sunday January 11th, 2014, my family and I were on our way home. After stopping at a service station my husband pulled onto the highway and was accelerating to the appropriate speed and the car just got stuck at 6500 rpm's and 60 mph. It stayed that way for about 5 miles,we could slow down but the rpm's were still stuck at 6500 and the engine was making a horrible sound, the car would not accelerate and several times we had to ride the shoulder of the road. When we finally reached the road we live off of my husband was able to slow down and turn while turning the awful noise got a little lower but a new noise was heard, a whining sound. After turning, the car lost all gas, nothing happened when the accelerator was pushed and then finally it started to go again. We arrived at our home my husband opened the hood and told me to press the accelerator a little and then he saw small puffs of smoke. I smelled something like burning rubber while sitting in the drivers seat and my husband said he smelled something sweet under the hood. This car was bought brand new on January 4th, 2014, it had 25 miles when purchased. The mileage on January 11th was around 500. This is a dangerous vehicle, I am waiting on the dealership to call and let me know what they find.
Acceleration problems, when stepping on gas vehicle crawls and whining noise from engine sounding transmission problems. Had it looked at when new with clunking noise from engine at dealer. They said they not seen any problems with Rogues and claimed a road test was done and no noises were heard from techs. Noises have continued and now having severe problems accelerating to even 30mph. Problem seems to come and go quite frequently, most occurrences happen after a long road trip. Vehicle has been serviced regularly, including transmission fluids and oil changes as recommended. Not sure what to do where dealers claim nothing wrong with vehicles. Does a serious accident or death have to happen to finally acknowledge several people complaining of the same issue. Google searches will show many forums of same complaints. . .
