NISSAN Rogue — What to know
The Rogue has been plagued by CVT transmission failures — Nissan faced a class action and extended warranty claims over CVT reliability. The transmission is the most important system to monitor on the Rogue and is the most common expensive repair.
What is this repair?
Plain-English overview
Vacuum leaks allow unmetered air into the intake manifold, causing the ECU to run the engine lean; symptoms include rough idle, high idle speed and hesitation. Diesel and hybrid vehicles use a mechanical vacuum pump for brake servo assistance, which can also fail.
