Is the CVT on the 2021+ Nissan Rogue as problematic as it was on older generations?
No. The historical failures affected the Jatco JF017E fitted to 2013-2019 Rogues. The third-generation steel-belt CVT (2021+) received a dedicated oil cooler, a wider ratio spread, and improved warm-up logic for cold starts. Documented failures on 2021+ units are rare. When buying a used 2021+ Rogue, confirm the NS-3 CVT fluid was changed at 60,000 km and perform a full-throttle highway merge to check for slippage or hesitation — the quickest field test for a CVT under load.
