I do plan on getting the CVT fluid changed at 30k miles, it’s sooner than Nissan recommends, but from what I have read if the fluid is changed every 30k miles significantly increases the lifespan of the CVT. No major issues, just oil changes and basic maintenance. Update: After three years and 27k miles of daily use and minimal maintenance I can report that the Rogue has continued to be an excellent car. 2012 Nissan Rogue consumer reviews 22,07023,370 MSRP range 4.2 (134 reviews) 79 of drivers recommend this car Rating breakdown (out of 5): Comfort 4.3 Interior design 4.1 Performance 4.0. Anyone in the market for a compact crossover should definitely consider the Rogue, so far it seems to be a great value in it’s class. We’ll see how it holds up long term, but I think they have come a long way since their inception. I know the old complaints about cvt’s and have experienced them in other cars, but this one feels more like a proper transmission, and I’m super impressed. This is my first car with a CVT and I have no complaints so far. It has plenty of zip for my needs, the handling feels like a much smaller car, it’s responsive and tight. Some people complain that it feels sluggish, but my daily is an F-150 with a 5.0 v8 pushing 380hp, and I have never felt the Rogue to be sluggish. Their top remarks comment that the Rogue is easy to. The tech and safety features are excellent for the price point. Critics have long praised the Nissan Rogue for its fuel efficiency, driveability, and SUV capabilities. I have driven the comparable Toyota and Honda offerings, and genuinely feel this is a great value. This is my first new car purchase, it replaced a 2004 Trailblazer so the driving dynamics are very different.
