Transmission Is not repairable
Brandi, Cedar Park, TX, 08/12/2016
2011 Nissan Rogue S 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl CVT)
Stay far away from this car. My transmission is shot for the 2nd time and Nissan is doing nothing about it. They've known about it for years and take no accountability. LEMON!
STAY AWAY!!!

2011 Nissan Rogue S 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl CVT)
I bought this car used with 38000 miles on it. I drive about 12000 miles a year and have had the car a bit longer then 2 years and the transmission needs replaced (there are 64000 miles on the car) The initial warranty expired after 60000 miles. The Rogue's transmission was problematic for years 2002-2010 to the point that there was a class action suite filed against Nissan and as a … result they extended the warranty on the transmission for those years to 120000 miles. I was happy with the car till this. Never again will I buy another Nissan or any car with the CVT transmission.....
BAD TRANNY POOR CUSTOMER RELATIONS HELP

2011 Nissan Rogue S 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl CVT)
My son bought my 2011 Nissan Rogue with 32,000 miles on it, has it regularly serviced the other day the check engine light came on with only 68000 miles on it. He took it to a Nissan dealership, the service manager told him the tranny (problematic cvt tranny nissan knows about) was needed to be replaced. Oh by the way it was 5600$ dollars to replace. He called nissan for any type of … assistance and Nissan rep was not only rude but very unwilling to talk to him, all he kept sorry I understand how you feel. This is our 5th Nissan and he didnt care just kept reading from a script sounded like. A car with Nissan supposed quality and known transmission problems you would think they would help in some manner
CVT Transmission is awful!!!

2011 Nissan Rogue S 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl CVT)
I bought a used Rogue a little over a year ago. It had 45,000 miles on it. The transmission started making a weird whining noise this summer. I googled the issues and was shocked to see the list of issues with the CVT transmission. I ended up bringing it into to Nissan and was told that sometimes with the heat the CVT transmissions will whine but to have the fluid levels checked … often. It did stop whining when it got colder and I have the fluid levels checked when I get my oil changed. Well today out of no where my transmission went.
I wish I had researched a little more before buying this vehicle. A quick search will show pages of complaints on these transmission. It's a clear problem. Don't buy!!
