A Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against Nissan North America, Inc. (“NNA”), regarding the Continuously Variable Transmissions (“CVTs”) in 2014-2018 model year Nissan Rogue, 2015-2018 model year Nissan Pathfinder and 2015-2018 model year Infiniti QX60 vehicles (“Class Vehicles”). NNA denies it engaged in any wrongdoing. The Court did not rule in favor of either party.
On March 21, 2022, the Court held the Final Fairness Hearing in this case. The Court entered a written Order approving the proposed class action settlement on March 23, 2022. The Order is posted here. The Settlement became effective on May 23, 2022 and a warranty extension will be implemented on June 1, 2022. This website will be updated with further developments.

WARRANTY EXTENSION
Nissan will extend the terms of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty for the transmission assembly (including the valve body and torque converter) and Automatic Transmission Control Unit (“ATCU”) in all Class Vehicles by twenty-four (24) months or twenty-four thousand (24,000) miles, whichever occurs first (the “Warranty Extension”) as follows:
2014-2018 model year Nissan Rogue and 2015-2018 model year Nissan Pathfinder vehicles:
• The original coverage of 60 months or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first, will be extended to 84 months or 84,000 miles, whichever comes first.
2015-2018 model year Infiniti QX60 vehicles:
• The original coverage of 72 months or 70,000 miles, whichever comes first, will be extended to 96 months or 94,000 miles, whichever comes first.
The Warranty Extension will be subject to the terms and conditions of the original New Vehicle Limited Warranty applicable to the Class Vehicle.
Dealers will be able to make necessary warranty repairs under the Warranty Extension beginning on June 1, 2022.
REIMBURSEMENT PAYMENTS
Nissan will reimburse Class Members for parts and labor actually paid by the Class Member for qualifying repairs involving the replacement of or repair to the transmission assembly or ATCU of their Class Vehicle if the work was done after the expiration of the powertrain coverage under the original New Vehicle Limited Warranty but within the mileage and time limits of the Warranty Extension. If the replacement or repair was performed by a Nissan or Infiniti dealer, the full amount the Class Member paid will be reimbursed. If the replacement or repair was performed by a non-Nissan/Infiniti automotive repair facility, Nissan will reimburse up to $5,000 for that replacement or repair. In both cases, the replacement or repair must have occurred on or within the mileage and time limits of the Warranty Extension. If you paid for repairs on more than one occasion, you can be reimbursed for all qualifying repairs subject to the above limits.
To receive a reimbursement payment, you must complete and submit a claim form by the deadline, along with appropriate documentation of the repair(s) for which you are seeking reimbursement.
