There's no fixed "schedule" for that, but in my experience it usually takes about a year for the parts pipeline to completely fill up for a new model. All the parts in the car will show up as available, but many will show "indefinite backorder" if you try to obtain them. We just had an instance of that with a new '22 Pathy that needed a warranty cluster, the replacement had to come from Japan because there are none in US warehouses yet. I think sheet metal and plastic parts for the Rogue shouldn't be too problematic, since most of those would already have been ramping production before COVID hit in earnest. Electrical and electronic parts may be a different story, we've seen a lot of stuff that's essentially on "F__k You" backorder because of the chip shortage.
