Buying a used 2021 Nissan Rogue? Check these 10 recalls first
This year carries the longest recall list here — ten entries, including two critical ones: a fuel hose that may leak and cause fire, and turbo engines that may fail or burn. Also covered are wrong wheel nuts that can loosen wheels, rear brake calipers that can leak fluid (listed twice), weak child seat anchors, a fuel pump that may stall the engine, backup cameras, and rear seat belts that may not retract. Of 286 unverified owner complaints, electrical (60), engine (51) and fuel system (33) lead.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Ask specifically which of the ten recalls are closed, above all the fuel hose and fuel pump work
- Have the wheel nuts checked against spec and the rear calipers inspected for fluid seepage
- If the car is turbocharged, ask for engine service history and check for weak child seat anchors and non-retracting rear belts
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Nissan dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
