Bought Nissan Rogue 2012 S AWD Special Edition. Requirement - Looking for a crossover which could address the requirements for small family (couple and an infant) and it fit the bill perfectly. - AWD - We get lot of snow here in Phily and AWD became a necessity. Rationale and Decision Making. - Special Edition provided very good value esp with the reverse parking camera (and 15" aluminium wheels, steering mounted controls, privacy glass, decent audio system) and fog lamps; a must for this SUV which huge D Pillars which limits visibility.

We researched all crossover vehicles in our price range of $30K. We've owned 6 Nissan's in the past and own the 2010 Armada. For a small car, it performs well, has plenty of power for the size vehicle and can get up to highway speed without a problem. We read all the reviews, and most were on-target and we didn't find any surprises. We are used to the CVT transmission and the "drone" is not an issue. We do notice more road noise, but it isn't annoying. The Bose system, Nav and cameras are excellent. We added the home link mirror and a roof wind deflector which work great. We are getting 24 mpg at this time without a complete break-in. It is a fun car to drive, but most of all, comfortable.

I will NEVER buy another Nissan vehicle or recommend one to anyone looking for a vehicle that’s going to last them awhile. My transmission went out at only 107,000 miles! After researching a bit this is NOT uncommon. Seeing as these transmissions have so many issues you think they would change something about it or repair the damn things for you. Nissan claims is not under warranty for this transmission, but you better believe I will be getting a lawyer if they don’t fix this! They quoted me 4,100 for a new transmission! Nissan won’t be getting much business after I through with this if they don’t do anything. This is absolutely ridiculous! Me along with Thousands of other people are completely screwed because of Nissan and something NEEDS TO BE DONE!

The CVT poses major safety concerns. My car lost power on the freeway in heavy traffic slowing to less than 20mile per hour. My car is 2 years old and just over the power train warranty of 60k. I was told it would be 3k to replace the transmission. This reminds me of the old lemons of the 80's when quality was at all time lows. This is the last Nissan I'll ever own.

I approached the purchase of a new crossover SUV with a very open mind. In fact, I had a slight preference to buy an American car. After looking at the combination of price, value, style and reliability, I went with the Nissan Rogue SV with SL package. It is fun to drive, and has a Sports feature for when you are going on a pleasure drive that will help you negotiate curves and hills more like a sporty car. I bought it fully loadeds with the SL package and so I have the camera that is so useful when backing up, a great BOSE sound system, XM radio, sunroof, navigation, 18 inch chrome wheels and the great CVT transmission that is standard. For a price of $25740, it is a great deal!
