While going down the highway at 75 MPH all of a sudden it starts to decrease speed. This has happen a couple of times. I would like to know what nissan is going to do about this since there are several people that has had this very same complaint. Something needs to be done about it. There needs to be a recall on this since there are so many people complaining about this. Why doesn't nissan want to stand behind their product. I love my rogue. I would like this problem dealt worth in a timely manner please.
