What's wrong?
The engine room harness on 2017-2019 Nissan Rogue vehicles with the hybrid powertrain is the bundle of wires that carries power and control signals between the engine bay electronics, the engine control module, and the hybrid propulsion system. The engine control module is the computer that helps manage engine operation. The harness has to stay routed and insulated so those signals are not interrupted.
On affected Rogue vehicles, the harness is positioned where it contacts the engine control module bracket. That bracket is a fixed metal support. Repeated contact can rub through or damage the harness insulation, which can let a wire short and blow a fuse. Once that fuse is blown, the protected circuit loses power.
There is no warning sign before failure. The recall filing says the problem occurs without a preceding warning, so an owner should not expect a light, sound, or drivability change before the fuse blows.
Who's affected?
The same engine room harness is tied to both the engine-control module and hybrid-propulsion system across the 2017, 2018, and 2019 model years.

What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2017-2019 Nissan Rogue is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Nissan dealer to schedule the free harness-protector-cover installation that shields the engine harness from ECM bracket damage.
- Bring the recall notice if you have it. If not, reference recall number 21V839 when you call.
- Stop driving if the engine stalls, and contact a franchised Nissan dealer before moving the vehicle again.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Nissan technician installs a harness protector cover so the Electronic Control Module bracket no longer contacts and damages the engine harness. The recall repair is free, with parts and labor covered. Nissan's reimbursement statement covers documented costs for owners who paid for this harness-related repair before the owner letter and whose vehicles are no longer under warranty. Bring prior repair paperwork to the service desk or contact Nissan customer service to start the reimbursement request.
