| Description of the problem | Summary: while driving my 2012 nissan rogue my car began to slow down even while i was stepping on the acceleration. Rpms would soar up any time i stepped on the pedal so i pulled over to the side of the road, let the car cool for a few minutes then tried to start it up again and as i stepped on the pedal the car barely accelerated (just inched along), leaving me to call and have it towed back. The car was brought to the used car dealership, the next day i received a call that my transmission needs to be replaced. The car is only 3. 5 years old (well taken care of) and even though it has 67,000 miles on it, a car as new as this one shouldn't be having transmission problems. I contacted nissan consumer affairs and after going back and forth with them a few times they decided they are not going to help me because the car is out of warranty, mind you back in 2003-2010 they put out an extended warranty program on all nissan rogues due to transmission problems, so they acknowledged the issue then i don't understand why they aren't acknowledging the issue now. I am still paying the car off and now i have paid $3,400 to have the trans fixed, that transmission lasted 12,500 miles before a 3rd transmission i was told needed to be replaced. After researching this i have found that the cvt transmissions in nissan cars is not an uncommon problem, actually a very common issue. Well the 3rd transmission only lasted 4,990 miles. I |
