Free. The seller won’t volunteer any of it.

Which one to get — and which to avoid
✅ The one to get
2019 Rogue SV AWD with the CVT fluid change history documented — mid-trim gets you heated seats, blind-spot monitoring, and remote start without the false-alarm-prone ProPILOT sensor suite of the SL/Platinum.
🚫 Avoid
Any Rogue with unknown or 'lifetime fluid' CVT service history and over 80k miles — that's a $4k time bomb wearing a clean CARFAX.
