| Description of the problem | I had a nissan rogue cvt transmission issue last year. Our car had multiple acceleration issues that we got lucky we didn't have any accidents. One of many issue was on labor day weekend we decided to go on a vacation to relax after days and weeks of hard work at the office. Again our vacation was cut short. It took us 6 hours to drive a 2. 5 hour drive. I had to stop, let the transmission cool down and drive again with a speed of less than 50mph sometimes taking the streets to keep the speed down. I took the car to the dealer, under warranty, they wanted to do a few minor services. They told me that they had fixed the problem and that there wouldn't be any more issues. It happened again and again. Finally, i opened a case through nissan and got my car a new transmission. The transmission has starting problems again and i am really tired of this. I got a call from my wife this morning that she was in the middle of the intersection waiting to make a left turn. She had loss of acceleration right in the middle of the intersection as the light turned red and and cars from the other side started to go straight to her honking their horn. She said that the car would not move and finally started to move very slowly. She was terrified and crying. I am really tired of this and really its unacceptable. Our rouge is our only car and my wife drives it to and from work and it is at this point that i can not accept this issue anymore, it is a danger to my family. I have had it with this car. |
