On the 2017-2022 Nissan Rogue Sport, the Nissan Rogue Sport uses the same Jatco CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) that has been problematic across the Nissan lineup. The CVT can develop shuddering during acceleration, hesitation, and in severe cases, complete failure. The belt and pulley system wears prematurely, and the transmission fluid degrades faster than Nissan service intervals account for. Nissan extended the CVT warranty to 10 years/120,000 miles for some model years due to the widespread nature of this issue.

This issue also affects: Infiniti QX55, Infiniti QX60, Nissan Altima

Common Symptoms

  • Shuddering during light acceleration
  • Hesitation or delay when accelerating
  • CVT whining or droning noise
  • Loss of power at highway speeds
  • Transmission warning light

How to Fix

Confirm the fault with a road test and scan for CVT-related DTCs such as ratio/performance or pressure-control codes, then inspect CVT fluid condition/level and check for overheat history in the TCM. If symptoms are mild and no hard internal failure codes are present, perform the Nissan CVT fluid deterioration reset, update the TCM calibration if applicable, and service the unit with genuine Nissan NS-3 CVT fluid; this typically runs about $250-$450. If the transmission still shudders, whines, shows metal contamination in the pan, or has internal failure codes, the fix is replacement of the valve body or complete CVT assembly, with typical repair costs around $1,500-$2,500 for a valve body and $4,000-$6,500 for a remanufactured/replacement transmission; check VIN eligibility for Nissan's 10-year/120,000-mile CVT warranty extension before authorizing major repairs.
