What's wrong?
The in-tank fuel pump on the 2021 Nissan Rogue sits inside the fuel tank and sends gasoline forward to the engine. It has an electric motor inside, with a brush and commutator that pass electrical power through the spinning pump so the engine gets steady fuel pressure.
In affected Rogues, a supplier assembly error left the brush and commutator wearing abnormally against each other. That extra wear creates too much heat inside the pump. Heat damage can melt internal parts, stop the pump, and cut fuel delivery to the engine, which can cause the engine to stall while driving.
There is no warning sign before failure. Nissan's recall filing described a malfunction indicator lamp and engine stall, but it says there is no preceding warning owners can rely on.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Nissan technician replaces the fuel pump assembly covered by the recall. The replacement parts and labor are free under the recall. Out of pocket repairs already paid are handled through the existing warranty, not through a separate reimbursement program, since the subject vehicles are still under warranty. Ask the service desk how warranty coverage applies if you have prior repair paperwork.
