Rogue torque converter failure

I'm having trouble with my 2020 Nissan Rogue Hybrid. Check engine light and transmission indicator are on. The gearbox is slipping, especially when shifting, and there's a grinding noise sometimes. It's throwing a code pointing to the torque converter lock-up clutch. Could the torque converter be failing? Has anyone else experienced this?

The symptoms, including engine surging and erratic RPMs, align with a failing torque converter.

Sounds rough. I had similar symptoms with my Rogue. Check engine light, weird shifting... Does the engine surge at all when it happens?

Engine surge? Now that you mention it, I have noticed the RPMs jump a bit erratically sometimes right before it slips. Was that part of your issue too? What was the fix?

Yep, engine surge was definitely part of it. Honestly, with those symptoms and the error code, it's highly likely the torque converter. Get it checked by a reputable transmission shop. Could save you from further damage.

Thanks for the heads-up! Took it to a trusted mechanic, and you nailed it – torque converter failure. Repair cost me 2120€, but at least it's running smoothly again. Appreciate the insight!
