In some cases, a computer reprogramming may solve the CVT noise problem. In either case, if the transmission in the Rogue you’re considering is making any strange noises, be sure to have it checked out. An inspection by a Nissan-trained mechanic is advised for any used Rogue ahead of purchase.
Given the Rogue’s relatively short lifespan on sale in Canada, other reliability issues mentioned in owner forums are few and far between. A full check of all cabin electronics is advised, as is a check of the carpeting in the wheel wells and cargo area for potential water leaks from the sunroof drain tubes or hatch seal, respectively.
Be sure to note the condition of the used Rogue’s tires and brakes before agreeing to purchase, too.
The Verdict Of A Used Nissan Rogue: A used Rogue will likely provide owners with satisfying fuel economy, all-season performance and driving dynamics—though shoppers should seek out a clean bill of health for the CVT transmission from a Nissan mechanic before purchase. A newer model with plenty of factory warranty remaining is the safest bet.
