Vehicle Speed Control Problems of Nissan Rogue - part 1

On two separate occasions, my 2023 Nissan Rogue has experienced major loss of power while driving 80 mph. The first time, all of the dash lights were blinking and there was an awful noise coming from the engine. I could not drive over 10 mph. The vehicle had to be towed 200 miles to the nearest Nissan dealer in billings, mt. They cleared the codes, test drove it and said everything was fine. The second time my vehicle had to be towed. 115 miles from the nearest Nissan dealer. Same issues, except this time there were no dash lights. Prior to all of this happening, my car had an open recall for the 1. 5l vc-turbo engine that my car has. Since the first time this occurred and Nissan "fixed" the problem, there has been no open recall. With the second occurance, Nissan had to replace the throttle actuator and gaskets according to the invoice. Luckily, I had purchased my own extended warranty and that warranty covered $1,104. 20 of the $1,204. 20 (I paid $100 CO-pay). I was charged $715 for towing from Nissan roadside assistance. The invoice claims the Nissan found the following diagnostic results: dtc p0507-00 wwhich is directly linked to a fractured internal gear in the electric throttle control actuator, the subject of NHTSA recall 26v081 and dtc p0196 which is directly linked to engine oil temperature performance, the precursor to engine bearing seizures addressed in NHTSA recall 26v080. Nissan is currently excluding many 2023 models from the "official" recall list. My car has 67,350 miles on it, but this failure should be covered by Nissan's 10-year/120,000-mile extended powertrain warranty. The parts replaced (throttle actuator and gaskets) and the diagnostic codes are identical to those in the 2026 expanded recall populations. Denying coverage based on an "open recall" statis is a violation of the spirit of the NHTSA safety mandates for this engine. I am formally requesting/demanding reimbursment from Nissan north America for the $815 that I have been charged.

I am the original owner of a 2015 Nissan Rogue (VIN: [xxx] ) with approximately 63,000 miles. After driving for about 20–30 minutes, the engine will suddenly rev up but the vehicle will not accelerate or will barely move when I press the gas pedal. This has happened multiple times when trying to merge, climb hills, or cross intersections. The vehicle loses drive power even though the engine is running and revving. When this happens, I have to move over and wait until the vehicle cools down before it will drive normally again. My Nissan dealer has diagnosed the issue as a failing cvt transmission and quoted about $7,700 to replace it. This behavior creates a serious safety hazard because the car can lose power in traffic, leaving me unable to accelerate to highway speed, climb grades, or clear intersections. I am concerned this may be related to known Nissan cvt problems and believe it should be investigated as a safety?related defect. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

My Rogue is smelling like gas almost all the time and I am only getting 225-250 miles a full tank.

Within the first week of owning my 2023 Nissan Rogue, the vehicle began losing power from highway speeds to around 20 mph, stalling during turns, shaking violently, and displaying warning lights. These issues continued for over a year. Several times I nearly crashed because the vehicle suddenly slowed down or lost power on the highway. Nissan repeatedly told me nothing was wrong, but the vehicle was later included in recall 25v-437 for engine bearing failure. The vehicle became unsafe to drive, and the engine behavior matched the symptoms described by others in the recall.

2024 Nissan Rogue sv engine light illuminated & the car engine cut off on the road. When the engine locked up almost us causing a serious car accident. While driving the 2024 Nissan Rogue sv. The vc turbo engine completely failed. After 1 year. The vehicle due to manufacturing defect from Nissan the engine needs a full vc turbo engine replacement. Nissan consumer affairs & antwerpen Nissan clarksville have refused to fix the manufacturing recalled defected engine & honor the extended 120,000 mile engine block warranty on the 2024 Nissan Rogue vc turbo engine.

This is negligence in Nissan to fix a serious safety manufacturer issue on the defective vc turbo engine.

No warning light. Going down the freeway at about 70-80 mph then the accelerator stops working. It goes down to about 44 mph with my foot floored in gas pad. I have to get off the road and then let her set to cool . This went on over and over on a recent 15 hour trip I had the transmission sensors evaluated and it was indicated they were no good replaced one but need 2 and one reordered. If was . Waiting on replacement and the outside parts so I'll keep up with the changes we do to if they are wrong. Also replacing outside transmission filter.

My 2019 Nissan Rogue sport is affected by recall 23v-093, related to the jackknife key potentially collapsing while driving and shutting off the vehicle. The only remedy currently offered is a spacer inserted into the key fob to permanently prevent the blade from folding. This disables the folding feature — a core function of the product — and turns a jackknife key into a permanently extended blade. I consider this an unacceptable fix. It does not restore the key’s intended design or function. No alternate solution (such as a properly redesigned or replacement fob) is offered. My dealer confirmed the “repair” is only the plastic spacer. Nissan consumer affairs escalated my case, but the call was dropped during transfer and I could not reach a resolution. I have not experienced a shutdown incident, but I am filing this complaint because the offered recall remedy removes a core feature and does not constitute a true repair. Nissan should be required to provide a fix that both eliminates the safety risk and restores original functionality.

I took my Rogue to the dealership at city limits Nissan on Monday 10/6/25 as it had power issues and the engine light came on stating 'engine malfunction power reduce service now' I then called NHTSA and filed a complaint about a recall for my Nissan Rogue that Nissan has yet to have a remedy. I got the car back on Tuesday afternoon 10/7/25 and they said it did not have to do with the recall. I drove the car straight home. I went to work the next morning and as I was pulling into a parking spot in parking garage, all of the sudden, I was crashed into the wall at a high rate of speed. I am extremely concerned that this may have been a malfunction with the Nissan Rogue as this occurred less then 24 hours after it was serviced. My car was totaled and the damage looks like it hit at 30 mph or more which is extremely alarming as I was slowing coming into the parking spot. I don't know exactly what happened however if there have been any issues with Nissans and sudden acceleration, I feel this needs to be investigated. My Rogue is a 2022 and had to have the engine replaced in early 2024. Nissan could not give any explanation as to why. My car has been taken to a salvage yard and I am concerned that if there was and issue, any evidence of an issued could be destroyed. Had there not been heavy duty cables, I could have gone further through the parking garage wall and fallen 3 stories.

So my engine failed at 70k. Nissan replaced it with a remanufactured engine the is failing faster than the original engine. Currently at 112k, I have replaced the catalytic converter, muffler, egr sensor twice, mass airflow sensor and oil changes at 3k just to have the vehicle in the shop for 6-7 months in 2025 alone. Do not buy a 2023 Nissan Rogue with the 1. 5l. The reman engine is under a safety recall for bearing degradation, but the dealership won't even look at it unless I pay upfront for a full diag fee of 4500 dollars for a wiring harness that is a secondary condition. Apparently the remedy won't be out until late in q4 of 2025. No rental or loaner assistance was offered at all. The vehicle has a deep knocking and won't accelerate properly to use roads and interstate driving safely. The latest symptom is low oil pressure and stalling. Completly unsafe car and ridiculous amount of time getting repaired. All of this has been since October 31st of 2024.

1. Component failed: engine bearings (main, a-, c-, l-link). The vehicle is available for inspection at the dealership. 2. Safety risk: complete engine failure while driving, causing loss of power and a high risk of a crash. 3. Problem confirmed? yes, by the Nissan dealership. 4. Inspected by manufacturer? yes, indirectly. Nissan issued official safety recall r25a8 for this exact defect. 5. Warning signs? yes. Check engine light, unusual engine noises, rough performance, and warning messages appeared before the repair attempt.

The transmission failed on my 2019 Nissan Rogue sport. I was driving down the road and my car started to jerk and go faster and then slower while I was driving down the road at 55 miles per hour. I could not control the speed or the smoothness of the car operation. I had no warning light or any indication that this was about to happen. The warning light came on much later when I was at home. This is a problem that Nissan is well aware of and has done nothing to inform customers or mitigate the damage (in my case $6,599. 40). There are many class-action lawsuits, but the one covering this car has already ended as on January 1, 2029. This problem tends to occur at about 80,000 miles, so I am maintaining that Nissan should reimburse me (my car had about 76,000 miles at the time). By cutting off the class-action lawsuit in 2020, no 2019 cars would have 80,000 miles on them. There is a class action lawsuit for another model that runs from 2014 to 2018, so they can honor requests on this model as well.

I believe the issue is with the transmission by online research. I have had the issue multiple times. The vehicle sometimes hesitates to go when pressing on the gas pedal after being stopped at stop lights. This is a problem mostly when it is very hot outside. I have had multiple close calls when trying to take a right at red lights. I will have plenty of time before another car is coming but I try to go and the car hesitates or barely moves before it actually goes almost causing accidents. I have not been able to get the car to the dealer to try and reproduce the issue and I feel it would be hard to reproduce unless the car was driven for a bit in the heat. There are no codes or warning lights populating.

Dear sir or madam, I purchased a 2023 Nissan Rogue for $24,510. 00 from a new jersey Nissan dealership. Only 45 days after the purchase, Nissan issued two separate safety recalls involving a risk of crash. Nissan failed to provide the necessary parts for months and did not remedy the safety defects within a reasonable time, as required under the federal motor vehicle safety act (49 u. S. C. Chapter 301). I repeatedly contacted Nissan asking for: 1. A buyback at fair market value, and 2. A rental/loaner vehicle until the recall repairs were completed. Nissan refused both requests, which violates the new jersey lemon law, the magnuson–moss warranty act, and the new jersey consumer fraud act. Because the vehicle was unsafe to drive and Nissan offered no solution, I was forced to sell it for $16,600. 00. My financial loss is $7,910. 00. I respectfully request: 1. A formal investigation into Nissan north America’s handling of these safety recalls, and 2. Assistance in recovering my $7,910. 00 economic loss. Sincerely, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

Issues accelerating from a complete stop. Happens sporadically, unable to replicate for mechanic, and no codes or warning lights. Has become a safety issue when needing to cross left at any intersection. Doesn’t not accelerate fast enough to safely cross even after flooring the pedal for multiple seconds and no warning when this issue will occur so car gets stuck trying to accelerate in the intersection with oncoming traffic, near collisions on passenger side from oncoming traffic on a route taken multiple times a day as there are no warnings prior to failure. Get stuck accelerating into intersection and can’t stop because cars behind me accelerate at a normal speed. Vehicle has been to repair shop.

My 2023 Nissan Rogue with less than 38,000 miles is experiencing severe engine failure. This has happened multiple times (more than 30 times) on the highway and in the city. When I am in slow-moving traffic or stop at a red light, the engine appears to rev and a warning light comes up "engine malfunction. Power reduce. Service now. " then the speed reduced, and no matter how hard I stepped on the gas pedal, the speed would not go past 8 miles per hour. I had to turn on the hazard lights to warn motorists behind me. To get the car to function, I turned off the engine, let it cool for a few minutes, and turned it on again. This issue has been going on for months. I took it to the Nissan dealership, and they could not find the problem. I am afraid of driving in slow traffic and of stopping at the traffic light. Please, somebody, needs to pass this on to Nissan so they can fix this problem? from online discussions, this appears to be an ongoing problem with many 2023 Nissan Rogues.

Automatic braking and crash detection alarm failed causing collision with another vehicle, totaling the car. That was the third time it happened. The first two times I was able to get the vehicle under control before collision. Problem was never addressed at a dealership due to scheduling issues. Problem first appeared in may 2025, then in July 2025. Collision totaling the vehicle occurred on August 6, 2025.

My vehicle abruptly went from 65 to 30 while driving with my children on the expressway. The check engine light and three other lights came on, and the car wouldn't start for an hr or so, and then it wouldn't accelerate past 25-30 miles, while all the check engine light and the other lights continued to stay on.

I purchased a 2017 Nissan Rogue used from a Nissan dealership with 58,617 miles. At around 99,000 miles, the vehicle began experiencing dangerous hesitation and shuddering. A certified Nissan dealer diagnosed a failure of the cvt transmission, specifically citing code p17f2 (judder condition). I was quoted over $6,000 for the repair. This issue matches known Nissan cvt defects that have been subject to multiple lawsuits and technical service bulletins, but my VIN was not included in prior coverage extensions. Nissan denied my request for goodwill repair assistance despite having documentation from their own dealer. This failure poses a safety concern and appears to be the result of a widespread manufacturer defect that has not yet been formally recalled for all affected vins. I am submitting this to request investigation and accountability.

I am first concern with the fact that the cvt transmission is not listed under the “component” section and this concern is a major problem many Nissan drivers are seeing. I would like to additional know how this transmission malfunction is not a safety concern as it tremendously affects the speed and operation of the vehicle regardless of maintenance. I have a 2019 Nissan Rogue sport that recently started to stall at red lights and even lose speed acceleration while in operation. Upon researching what this issue could be I discovered that most 2015-2022 model Rogue have this issue and it associate with the cvt transmission! my question and maybe great fear is why this doesn’t constitute for an immediate recall for Nissan by the NHTSA?! there are multiple reports on this issue to support our claims yet nothing. I strongly advise someone look into this matter before any loss of life happens.

I don’t know what malfunctioned excatly but I was driving on highway at 65 mph and vehicle just shut down so I pulled car off to side the dash said engine malfunction car shutting down to save engine. And hasn’t started since. But prior to that I have had issues since I got the car about 4000 miles into driving is when everything started the dash said engine malfunction power reduced service now. I informed Nissan dealership right away brought it into there shop and they didn’t do anything just wanted to sell me another car I have nothing but problems and headaches with this car and yes me and my wife’s safety was at risk a few time cause when it malfunctions the power reduced and when it just shut down completely I was in far lane and almost go hit trying to merge off road. And due to it braking down I had to leave vehicle to go get a car dolly was gone about 2 hours and came back and vehicle windows were broken and everything was stolen out of my car of value. The other issue the intercooler went out and that cause a big problem I have the repair invoice somewhere but have to locate it.

Dash screens have gone totally black with no info being displayed while driving at interstate highway speeds. Displays stayed totally black for about 10 minutes and the came back on. *steering assist activated without any warning without cruise being turned on causing me problems when trying to change lanes. *with the cruise control not being selected, the vehicle suddenly started to accelerate until I applied the brakes and slowed the vehicle. Not reliable. On a recent return trip, the system had us locked on a location we were at possibly 8 hours earlier. The gps never updated as we came home driving thru west virginia, delaware, maryland, pennsylvania, & finally new jersey. *radio constantly displays a message that no receivable stations are available when we select the am or fm bands, but satelite radion is available. Although the radio problems are not a safety issue, they are a nuisance when traveling and trying to listen to local stations for road and weather reports. *recently occurring problem with the cargo door suddenly closing while we are loading/unloading the cargo area. Have had the vehicle back to the dealership many times for these problems with no resolutions to these recurring problems. We had opened a case#[xxx] with Nissan north America, but it was closed back in mid march2025 when we thought the problems were resolved. The re-occurring problems caused us to open a new case#[xxx] with Nissan north America. We want Nissan to buy back or replace this vehicle since they cannot resolve the stated problems.

I was driving and the accelerator pedal got stuck and it started to increase my speed. I kept pressing on the pedal and it still was not working. I had to step on the brake pedal several times, like 5-6 times before the accelerator finally became unstuck.

Vehicle has a habit of losing speed, even on cruise control, when going more than 70 mph for extended times and dropping below 60 when doing so on interstate with no warning lights or system notifications. The most recent occurence was on Saturday, June 7th when driving on the interstate and cruise control engaged at 73 mph when it cut off, dropped to just below 60 without warning and would not accelerate back when pedal completely depressed and then ac system started blowing hot air and compressor would not kick back on. First attempted to check freon and those levels are not the issue- air blows but blows hot without cooling at all. This did occur in sustained temps in the low to mid-90s.

The contact owns a 2018 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while driving 60 mph on the highway, the vehicle suddenly decelerated to 40 mph. The contact stated that the vehicle was jumping while accelerating. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact pulled over safely and restarted the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to three independent mechanics who determined that there was a malfunction error and cvt judder. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 141,832.

Component failed: cvt available for inspection: yes 2019 - vehicle stopped responding when pulling out of my driveway. My car was going backwards and I had no control. I had to turn vehicle off and on again to fix this. Had inspection and diagnostics at Nissan dealership. They reprogrammed engine control. 2020 - vehicle was at stop light and started shaking. Then it stopped moving. I had to restart it. Had inspection done at dealership. Found no issue. 2023 - notified about recall, but when contacting dealership they said there was no recall. 2025 - when driving on highway car started slowing down. Hesitates and struggles to accelerate. This was dangerous because speed limit was 65mph, but my car was struggling to go 40mph. Started making loud noise when trying to accelerate. Took to mechanic, and found out this is issue with cvt, referred to service bulletin reference number ntb18-077b. Recommended going to dealership as service bulletin has been out since 10/2019. Again received communication there is recall for my Nissan Rogue sport. Called Nissan dealership and they stated there is no recall. I have appointment diagnostic inspection scheduled for tomorrow morning.

Engine keeps making noise check engine light keeps on due to a part on car take and speed is slow car will only got up to 80 top speed.

Car was driving fine went into a store came out a couple hours later car wouldn’t start. After jump starting it check engine light is on and awd system failure reads across the dashboard. The 2 back doors no longer lock/unlock unless you do it manually. Drove car home it is now shifting funny like a hesitation or slipping feeling while driving. There’s a little over 15k miles on it.

I have experienced unusual engine noises, rough engine performance, illumination of the malfunction indicator light (mil), and warning messages displayed in the instrument cluster. The engine has failed while the vehicle was in motion, resulting in a loss of motive power twice, once on the highway. I have been to the dealership mechanic 3 times with this issue, the first occurred prior to the recall coming out. The last time I was told to pay for a diagnostic or they would not be able to help me; I paid and was told they could not find anything relevant to my issue. I was just told that there was no further information occurring from this recall. I feel as if the car is almost undrivable. It is definitely unsafe and unreliable. And a car constantly revs at 6000 rpm's prior to switching gears if it switches gears. At this point I don't know what to do and regret buying a Nissan as they won't even help.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving, the vehicle failed to accelerate above 70 mph. The contact stated that the vehicle decelerated and stalled with a whistling sound coming from underneath the hood. The contact coasted to the side of the road to restart the vehicle; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as needed. There were no warning lights illuminated. The dealer was contacted; however, the dealer was unable to inspect the vehicle until the impact bar was repaired due to the vehicle being rear-ended by another driver, and because the vehicle had a salvage title. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 104,490.
