Nissan Rogue Extended Warranty FAQ

What does the Nissan factory warranty cover on a new Rogue?

New Nissan Rogues include a 3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty and a 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. Once these expire, repair costs are your responsibility — and the Rogue's CVT makes post-factory protection especially important.

Why does the Nissan Rogue CVT fail so often?

The Rogue's Xtronic CVT is known for overheating under load, developing shudder symptoms, and failing prematurely — especially on 2014–2019 models. Nissan extended its CVT warranty for some model years, but many Rogues fall outside that coverage. Replacement runs $3,500–$5,500.

What Nissan Rogue model years are eligible for Athena coverage?

Most Nissan Rogues with a clean title and under 150,000 miles at enrollment qualify for coverage. This includes 1st-generation (2008–2013) and 2nd-generation (2014–2020) and current 3rd-generation models. Contact us with your VIN for eligibility confirmation.

Is the Rogue's CVT covered under Athena plans?

Yes. CVT transmissions are covered under Enhanced Powertrain, Deluxe, and New Car Coverage plans. A full CVT replacement at $3,500–$5,500 would cost you only $100 out of pocket with Athena.

How much does a Nissan Rogue extended warranty cost?

Nissan Rogue plans typically start at $35–$90 per month depending on model year, mileage, and coverage tier. Call (833) 251-9786 for a free personalized quote.
