Are you **sure** about the accuracy of the information that you posted? If your transmission actually shifted to **1st gear** when you are driving at **70 mph** , most likely the engine and the transmission would both self-destruct. 🤨 ---

Your car doesn’t “shift” per se. It’s got a CVT, there is no low gear. It could be that the pulley/drum that allows the transmission to effectively change ratios on the fly is stuck or otherwise malfunctioning ---

does a 2015 rogue even have a tach? why does driver need to know rpm level? i think we are getting to point of only having a speedo on cars. no alternator gauges, temp gauges, oil pressure, and so on. dont want to give owner too much info. ---

The Rogues gear-less CVT transmission had some issues. By my count, there are a dozen technical service bulletins on that generation Rogue’s Trans. [You can read them over here at this link](https://www.carcomplaints.com/Nissan/Rogue/2015/tsbs/) within CarCompliants (the site you originally started from when you made your post.) Good luck. I suspect Nissan’s dealers may be helpful, despite the car being 127K miles over the limited powertrain warranty. You drive a LOT! Let us know. I’d also love to know how you liked that Rogue overall during its time with you. ---

Thanks, my bad. I’m seeing extra zeros today.
