Sorry I bought this 2010 Rouge.From the day I drove it home. The car vibrates & the steering wheel shakes. Took it back 6 times. They do not know what is wrong with it. I test drove other rouge. And it does not shake or vibrate. I believe it is the transmission. The repair shop does not think it is transmission. Deep down they know it is the transmission. I am suppose to be fully covered. Never buy a car from Nissan of Queens. They are thieves. Whom rip off the customers and over charge you. Buyer Beware!!!!!! I want my car fixed. And the dummies cannot figure out what's wrong with it.

Nissan is waiting for the warranty on the CVT Transmission to run out so they will not have to fix these cars. They have 2 more years, they are just binding time and the NTSB is doing NOTHING to help consumers. Nissan extended the warranty on the CVT from 60K to 120K or 10 years, but when you take the car into the dealership with complaints they say there are NO CODES, the transmission is fine. IT IS A LIE. In 2013, I almost died in my car exiting the highway when my car lost power. I came to a stop from about 65 MPH and the car completely lost power, I was lucky the truck behind me did not hit me. I took the car to the dealer the same day, nothing was found. I explained how the car shudder, like it has the chills!!! Nope, dealer could not find anything wrong – no codes. I took the car back multiple times over the 8 years I have had it for the same issue. Last year April 2017, I took the car back again for the same thing… and nothing. They change the transmission oil and charged me $399! On October 2, 2018, my car lost power on the highway and would not accelerate over 50 MPH. The engine had a loud whining sound and struggling. I called the dealer and they said bring it on Thursday. However, on my way home from the doctor, the car would not go above 40 MPH so I drove directly to the dealer and told them I was leaving it there. Today, October 4, 2018 the dealer called and said they drove it twice, and found nothing wrong with the transmission it accelerated without issue. But they found my axle was bad and I needed bearings, etc. I asked, what does that have to do with the car losing power? I was told, with transmission, sometimes when the car cool vs. hot it acts differently but there is nothing to be done. THIS IS WRONG! SHAME ON NISSAN.

Do not buy this vehicle. I owned this vehicle since since 2012 and I had all kind of issues. I replaced the catalytic converter twice, tentioner, axle, etc... The biggest issue has been the CVT Transmission. My transmission let me down on the highway. I am lucky enough to still be alive. This vehicle is extremely unreliable and i will not recommend to anyone. DO NOT PURCHASE. IT IS A PIECE OF JUNK.

Bought our Rogue in Aug. 2010. Liked the styling and handling. Got indicated 34 mpg on the way back from Chicago to Madison at 58 mph. Dropped to 31 at 65 mph. Cold weather drops mileage considerably. In mostly suburban driving in winter we average 23 mpg, freeway driving 28. The AWD/ABS/Traction control is fantastic in the snow. It's wonderful to be able to accelerate without spinning wheels and hoping they'll grab before the wolf pack descends on you. We installed U-haul hitch, grille chrome, lower side chrome accent strips, and roof rack which approximates the 2011 look. Also installed a compass/Homelink/garage door opener/self-dimming rear view mirror from Ebay which is great.
Another Bad Rogue

Don't fall for this car - the transmission will very likely fail on you. Read the oldest reviews first because it is not until this vehicle gets some miles on it that the troubles begin. I bought my 2010 Rogue in Sept 2016. At that time all the Nissan recalls and extended warranties were unknown to me. The car had 72,000 miles on it and was clean. Had the brakes done at 99,000 miles and other routine maintenance until the fall of 2019. I was evacuating due to an impending hurricane. I got 1.5 hours from home when the car's rpm's revved up and squealed while the acceleration went from 75mph to 40mph and I pulled off the interstate. I drove 25 - 30 mph to a gas station and sat for a few minutes. The car never overheated and the check engine light never came on. I turned around and drove the back roads back home. Had the car checked and nothing was found wrong with it. I was told "there is nothing wrong with your car." The next month the front right axle went bad. Spent about $500 on that repair. Started to get a bad feeling about the car. But no problems - until this June. I headed out after not going out of town for months due to the pandemic. Got 1.5 hours away and driving 75mph on interstate and the car repeated the same thing it had done the previous fall. I thought I was having a bad dream. The bad dream actually started when I took the car to my repair shop and asked them to look for codes. They found two transmission related codes, then cleared them and said take it to the dealer if it happens again. Long story short - the dealer could not duplicate the codes - because you have to drive the car at highway speeds for about an hour - when the transmission fail/slippage happens. It is very dangerous - as you can easily get rear ended. The car's warranty was up in August and I traded the car in for a Honda CRV a few weeks ago. It is night and day in how the cars drive. The Rogue shook when idling - really bad with the AC on and the rpms jumped around. It still looked good - but I won't buy another Nissan product. This one should have been recalled - not had an extended warranty - the Nissan won't rightfully honor anyway.
