2019 Nissan Rogue Sport/Qashqai

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2019 Rogue Sport/Qashqai.

Body SUVTransmission Automatic (AV-S7)

The 2019 Nissan Rogue Sport, badged as the Qashqai in global markets, is a compact SUV pairing a 7-speed automatic (AV-S7) transmission with an engine specified to use 4.0 quarts of 0W-20 oil, delivering EPA fuel economy of 27/31/28 mpg. This model year sits at a contentious point in the vehicle's reliability history, logging 96 total owner complaints and two recalls. Consequently, researchers must weigh the SUV's routine mechanical specifications against a documented vulnerability in its Forward Collision Avoidance system, meaning overall dependability is tempered by active safety concerns.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 5,000 mi; spark plugs at 105,000 mi; coolant at 105,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 105,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

Owner complaints about the 2019 Nissan Rogue Sport/Qashqai top in one area — the forward collision avoidance, 13 of 96 reports (14%), well ahead of the next concern. None of this vehicle's 2 recall campaigns target the forward collision avoidance, so those reports read as owner-reported wear-and-tear rather than an acknowledged defect. 2 of the reports describe a crash and 1 a fire — a small share of the total, but worth weighing against the forward collision avoidance pattern above. These are tallies of what owners actually reported to the federal government, not an editorial score — and higher-selling models naturally rack up more reports.
