Little power when reversing up slight incline - 2011 Nissan Rogue SL
I just bought a used 2011 Nissan Rogue SL (38K Miles):
Does anyone else have the issue of having noticeably little power when reversing up a slight incline? I park my Rogue on our driveway and our driveway slopes down towards our house, slightly. When I attempt to reverse "up" the incline when backing out of the driveway, it seems like the car really struggles to make it. Sometimes it almost feels like the AWD kicks in and sends power to different wheels. Is this just a CVT issue and I have to live with little to no power when reversing or should I take this in to get it looked at. I have the 100k-mile warranty.
Thanks.

You might read up on the Nissan Extended Warranty for CVTs. I'm not sure your year is covered but it's worth a call.
