Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2014-2020 Rogue and 2017-2022 Rogue Sport vehicles equipped with a jackknife style ignition key. The jackknife key may collapse into a folded position while driving.
Driver contact with a key in the collapsed position could inadvertently shut off the vehicle while driving, increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, if the vehicle shuts off while driving, the air bags may not deploy in a crash as intended, increasing the risk of injury.
Dealers will insert a spacer into the key slot of the jackknife key, free of charge. Interim notification letters notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed March 29, 2023. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 30, 2023. Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall is R22C5.

There is a water leak on the driver side floor and the body shop can figure out where it's coming from. My vehicle also had issues with the latch due to corrosion. The body shop was able to fix that issue. My navigation system and dash turns off and on as I am driving. The bodyshop can't find any issues with that either. Clear something is wrong with it.

The Drivetrain has had multiple issues since purchasing this vehicle. I have had to have the axle boot covers replaced multiple times - without any reason to cause the boots to tear or mess up. In addition the axle has had to be replaced multiple times. This is a very costly repair and doesn't last very long before it has to be replaced again. We are safe drivers and have no logical reason for this to occur on it's own. There have been multiple problems with the transmission during this same time. I feel that a recall should be issued for this vehicle and would appreciate any help with this vehicle problem.

I went to open the driver's side door after unlocking the car and the door handle came off in my hand. As a disabled veteran, I need to have constant access to opening my driver's side door without having to maneuver over the passenger seat or recline the seat back to try and open the door from the driver's side passenger door. My wife saw that other 2014 Nissan Rogues had a recall for the same reason. When I reached out to the dealer I purchased the car from, they said my car wasn't on the recall list and I would have to pay $300 for the part and $180 / hr. for labor to get it fixed. We have been in a heatwave this summer but when this happened, I was parked in the shade of a parking garage. There was no visible tampering around the handle indicating that someone was trying to break in. In addition to the driver's side door handle coming off, my wife noticed another recall related to 2014 Nissan Rogues that has happened with out car. The latch holding the hatch door on the rear of the vehicle has become loose and is easily moved. Though it has not separated from the base, there is the possibility of the latch coming undone and groceries or other items in the trunk area to fly out and cause accidents by drivers dodging items (groceries. school supplies, etc.) that tumble out of the car.

When my daughter was driving down the interstate, with a 65 mph speed limit, the car started slowing down. It would not allow her to go any faster than 40 mph. She pulled over to let the engine cool some and continued to have the problem. When we consulted the Nissan dealer, they said it was a “safety mechanism” to keep the car from overheating. I certainly don’t see how it is safe to be forced to drive a speed limit too slow for the interstate. Why is this not recalled? I see there are many more complaints with the same issue.

During heavy rain storms the internal gutter under the sunroof fills with rainwater and fails to drain out through the weep-hole drain tubes located in the corners. This backed up rainwater then spills into the vehicle, onto the visors and even onto the driver and front seat passnger's heads. It distracts the driver, runs down and soaks the headliner and posts, and it will sooner or later penetrate the dashboard electrical systems causing all kinds of short circuits and danger. In my case, the dealer, several years ago, cleared out the internal weep-hole drain tubes using compressed air. But it now continues to flood, especially during a sudden heavy rainstorm. (The drain tubes need to be enlarged, and the seal around the sunroof-glass need to be improved).
Seats, Other or unspecified, Jan 9, 2023
In the past, I complained many times that the car was flooded and the driver's seat was shaking. After multiple inspections at the maintenance department of Nissan dealers, the cause of the problem is not uniform, and the service quality is extremely poor. It has not been solved until now, because water often enters the car and the glass produces fog that affects the vision. I am facing danger every day when I drive. I complained again today and hoped to resolve it completely.

While driving my dash gives off a warning my back lift gate is open, my doors will unlock then lock and the warning will disappear off my dash then come back again unlocking my doors while the car makes a beeping sound alerting me the lift gate is open repeatedly while driving. Also, while the car is turned off and parked the alarm will go off by itself when the doors are locked

This issue is with my 2014 Nissan Rogue that fell under the manufacturer issued recall R21B9 (NHTSA Recall 22V-024). I understand that Nissan has now claimed that this recall has been resolved, but their resolution has NOT fixed the damage done to my car due to the recall. The R21B9 recall states ... "In affected vehicles, if water and salt collect in the driver's side foot well, it may wick up the dash side harness tape and enter the connector. If this occurs, the dash side harness connector may corrode. If the connector becomes corroded, electrical current may continue to flow between the connector terminals, potentially causing issues such as driver's power window or power seat inoperative, All-Wheel Drive (AWD) warning light ON, battery discharge, and/or thermal damage to the connector. In rare cases, the corrosion could potentially lead to a fire, which may increase risk of injury." I brought my 2014 Nissan Rogue to a Nissan service center in April of '22 when I started smelling natural gas coming from my car. The service center diagnosed and confirmed that this natural gas smell was due to recall R21B9. The Nissan service center returned my car to me in October of '22 after the recall resolution was completed, however, my car is still smelling of natural gas, and I cannot continue to drive this car with my family breathing in this toxic odor smell. The Nissan service center returned my car and said the issue was "fixed" and there was nothing else they could do to my car to help with the smell. They did confirm that my car still smelled of natural gas. I opened a case through Nissan corporate and they referred me back to the Nissan service center. I got the car interior detailed and the engine cleaned; but it is still has a toxic odor smell. Nissan may have fixed the mechanical issue related to the recall, but the natural gas / toxic odor smell remains, and this is a health risk to me and my family. Again, Nissan confirmed this issue came from their recall.

Transmission issues

I was driving on the highway on my way to work when the check engine light came on in my car. I was pressing my foot on the pedal and trying to accelerate but my car wasn't gaining any speed. It got to the point where I started to lose speed and had to pull over on the side of the highway. When i was pressing on the pedal i heard a pumping like sound but the rpms were not going up at all and the car wasn't moving. Going in reverse did not work either. I waited around 20 minutes for the car to cool down and I was then able to drive at low speed to work. No one but me has looked at the car so far.

The driver's side leaks, filling the floor board with water. This is the precursor to the issue that caused the recall Manufacturer Recall Number: R21B9, NHTSA Recall Number: 22V-024 There was constantly water, several inches deep, on the drivers side floor. The dealership said they could not fix it so I found someone to fix the leak. The recall notice from Nissan says they will pay for repairs. I filed all of the paperwork Nissan asked for on the recall notice. Now they say they won't pay because they do not know how to fix it. I just want to be reimbursed for my out of pocket expense to make my car safe to drive.

This vehicle when driven in traffic or at a stop and go area will not accelerate at normal speed. The RPM goes up and the vehicle will not go. However when we’ve taken it to a mechanic or Nissan there is no issue with the transmission and when we turn the car off and the turn it back on the vehicle continues to work perfectly fine. No codes come up on the mechanic reading device and nothing shows as being wrong with the vehicle which leads me to believe it may be a recall. This is not only happening with my Nissan Rogue however it is happened in all Nissan Vehicles in general. I ask that you please look into this issue and figure out if it is a manufacturer malfunction.

i believe it is the transmission (a few others, but not specialists) have told me they thought it to be transmission related, also) I was driving spiritedly and at an intersection came to an abrupt stop. tried to immediately back up, put it in reverse and only the gas reved. the car would not move. and i checked to make sure it was in gear. and three or four more times and a stop light when the light changed i tried to go and it would not move.l i either had to wait a few minutes, or put it in park and back into drive then it would engage and drive.

Please note that I attempted to report this to Nissan today, but the first call I was hung up on after describing why I was calling and the second call went unanswered. At some point between 01/27/2022 and 01/31/2022, it was reported to me that my vehicle was destroyed by fire. My VIN was verified to be a part of the recent recall regarding salt water entering the driver side floor panel and causing electrical corrosion that could potentially result in fire. I did experience my driver floor board becoming wet, intermittently, after driving in rainy or wet road conditions as was described in the recent recall. The car has been completely destroyed by fire.
