Dealers inspect and reseat or replace the driveshaft (and snap ring) free. NHTSA 24V-304 (2024) and 26V-410 (2025). Typical cost: Free under recall. ### CVT judder/hesitation complaints (much improved, not eliminated) (moderate) The B18's CVT is substantially more reliable than the B17's, but NHTSA and owner forums still log complaints of shudder on light acceleration, hesitation from a stop, and occasional early failures. Nissan issued judder-diagnosis TSBs; the 7-year/84,000-mile CVT-defect lawsuits of earlier cars do not apply. Keep NS-3 fluid fresh (60k severe interval) and document any shudder while under the 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. TSB NTB20-071 family (CVT judder diagnostic). Typical cost: Free under powertrain warranty; $3,500-$4,800 for a replacement CVT out of warranty. 3 more issues are reported in other 2020-2025 years: Tie rods can bend after curb/pothole impact (recall, expanded twice) (2020-2022); Rearview camera image distorted or lost (recall) (2020-2021); LED headlight aim misaligned from the factory (recall) (2020).

Across all years maintenance stays cheap: the same 15208-65F0E spin-on oil filter fits every engine, lug torque is 83 ft-lb on every generation, and the key fob takes a CR2025 (through 2019) or CR2032 (2020+). The big-ticket items owners research are CVT fluid type (NS-2 vs NS-3. Never interchangeable) and CVT warranty coverage.
