| Description of the problem | Hi, i am experiencing a known "cvt overheating" problem with my rogue. What's happening is that when the cvt gets more then some threshold temperature it goes to so called "safe" mode and the car looses speed dramatically, including situations on a high way. This is a safety issue! I brought me vehicle to the dealership 2 times and as a result they suggested to install a "cooler kit" by nissan which potentially can solve the problem just by cooling the cvt is a "better" way. They are asking for about $1200 for the installation. I see that as a nissan's design flow. I don't think paying for this out of my pocket is the right solution. I think nissan should start a re-call on that problem. This is unacceptable situation on how nissan handles it right now (in fact it doesn't handle it all). Thank you.
