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.

I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 80 AT BETWEEN 65 AND 70 MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND QUIT ON ME. I HAD TO PULL OFF INTO THE MEDIAN SHOULDER OF A VERY BUSY INTERSTATE. I LUCKILY DID NOT GET REAR-ENDED SINCE THERE WERE CARS RIGHT BEHIND ME AS A FIGURED OUT THAT I WAS LOSING POWER FAST. I DID HEAR ON THE RADIO 4 HOURS EARLIER THAT 2014 NISSAN ROGUE'S WERE BEING RECALLED FOR FUEL PUMP. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT NOT EVEN A YEAR AGO. I PURCHASED IT THE END OF SEPTEMBER 2014. THEY THANKFULLY REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AT NO CHARGE BECAUSE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT IN THE RECALL BATCH. I WANT THIS INVESTIGATED BECAUSE I THINK IT DOES NEED TO BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT IT WAS THE FAULT OF THE FUEL PUMP THAT MADE MY CAR SUDDENLY STOP. CAROUSEL NISSAN DID EVERYTHING FROM THEIR END FOR ME. I HAD MY CAR BACK BY LATE MORNING ON APRIL 11, 2015. SINCE THIS HAPPENED TO ME AND I GOT LUCKY THAT IT DIDN'T CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

WE BROUGHT OUR 2014 NISSAN ROGUE IN TO REPAIR 3/23/2015 WITH A SERIOUS ACCELERATION ISSUE. THE DEALER IS , VERO US 1 NISSAN/ HYUNDAI , WERE WE ORIGINALLY BOUGHT THE CAR. THE PROBLEM IS AT WILL THE CAR SHUTTERS AND LOOSES SPEED WHEN ACCELERATED. NISSAN CLAIMS THEY CAN NOT RE CREATE THE PROBLEM AND ALL COMPUTER TEST ARE NEGATIVE TO ANY PROBLEMS. TODAY I FILED A CASE WITH NISSAN NORTH AMERICA. I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE IS A FUEL PUMP CAMPAIGN FOR ALL 2014 ROGUES MANUFACTURED IN SMYRNA, TENN. BETWEEN THE DATES OF 6/11/13 TO 6/7/2014. MY ROGUE WAS MANUFACTURED 3/3/2014. NISSAN US 1 KNOWS NOTHING OF THIS RECALL. WE WERE TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED UPON PICK 3/27/2014. UNFORTUNATELY, THE PROBLEM PERSISTS AND REPRESENTS A VERY SIGNIFICANT DANGER TO OPERATION. IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM BUT WHEN IT OCCURS THE CAR SHAKES VIOLENTLY AND DOES NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS DEPRESSED. THIS COULD CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT. WE LIVE IN A SUBDIVISION FOR WHICH THE EXIT REQUIRES US TO CROSS US 1. IMAGINE IF THE CAR DECIDED TO FAIL TO ACCELERATE ACROSS US 1 AND MY WIFE AND KIDS WERE STRUCK BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC! I HAVE READ ABOUT THESE ISSUES ON VARIOUS NISSAN SITES, CVT TROUBLES AND FUEL PUMP/ PROBLEMS. IT IS A WELL DOCUMENTED AND KNOW PROBLEMS FOR NISSAN VEHICLES. *TR

WHENEVER THE FRONT-SEAT PASSENGER BUCKLES HIS OR HER SEAT BELT EVEN A FEW SECONDS AFTER WE START OUR ROGUE, PUT IT IN GEAR, AND START DRIVING, THE "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" LIGHT ILLUMINATES AND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG REMAINS OFF INDEFINITELY. WE ARE ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM ONLY BY STOPPING THE CAR, SHUTTING IT OFF, AND MAKING SURE THAT THE PASSENGER BUCKLES HIS OR HER SEAT BELT BEFORE THE ENGINE IS RE-STARTED. THIS IS CLEARLY A DANGEROUS PROBLEM. WE SPOKE TO OUR NISSAN DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT ABOUT THIS, AND THEY TOLD US THAT THEY ARE AWARE THAT THIS KIND OF THING HAPPENS, BUT THEY HAVE NO FIX FOR IT. *TR

WE WERE ON I-77 HEADING TO FLORIDA WHEN WE NOTICED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON, INDICATING THAT THE AIR BAG WAS NOT FUNCTIONING. IT STAYED ON FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS UNTIL WE STOPPED TO EAT. WHEN WE STARTED THE CAR AGAIN AND THE LIGHT WAS OFF. THEN APPROXIMATELY AND HOUR LATER THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND STAYED ON FOR ROUGHLY 30 MINUTES AND WENT OFF AGAIN. IT DID NOT COME ON AGAIN, BUT WE TOOK THE CAR TO DAYTONA NISSAN AND REPORTED OUR PROBLEM. THE SERVICE MANAGER THERE HAD THEM CHECK IT OUT AND THEN TOLD US THAT THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE SYSTEM. HE TOLD US THAT MY WIFE DID NOT WEIGH ENOUGH TO TRIP THE SENSOR. HER WEIGHT USUALLY VARIES BETWEEN 116 AND 122 POUNDS. BASED ON HIS STATEMENT, SHE COULD NEVER RIDE IN THE FRONT SEAT! THE LIGHT HAS NOT COME ON AGAIN THAT WE HAVE NOTICED. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT YOU ALWAYS CHECK WHEN RIDING IN THE CAR. *TR

I BOUGHT NEW NISSAN ROGUE SELECT 2014 ON JULY 13,2014. FOR THE FIRST MONTH IT WAS WORKING EXCELLENT. SUDDENLY I STARTED HEARING A CLICK SOUND ( SOME TIMES LOUDER). THIS SOUND I FEEL COMING FROM ENGINE NEAR RIGHT FRONT WHEEL. I REPORTED THIS IN MY FIRST 1000 MILE INSPECTION, BUT SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID IT IS NORMAL. THEN I DROVE SAME VEHICLE OF MY FRIEND, I DID NOT FEEL ANY SUCH SOUND. DURING MY FIRST SERVICE ( 6 MONTHS SERVICE) I AGAIN MENTIONED SAME THING TO SERVICE DEPT. THIS TIME THEY EXPLAINED THAT THIS IS COMING BECAUSE SHIFTING FROM BACK GEAR TO DRIVING MODE. BUT IF IT IS NORMAL THEN WHY OTHER VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE THIS KIND OF SOUND. ALSO, SOME TIMES IT IS VERY SCARY. WE FEEL THAT SOMETHING IS BROKEN. BUT WE ARE NOT GETTING ANY HELP. THANKS *TR

THEY ARE HAVING A REGIONAL TECH COME TO TEST DRIVE EXTENSIVELY TO SEE IF HE CAN FIND SOMETHING. I HAVE READ ALL THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS VEHICLE AND I HAVE COME TO ONE CONCLUSION, NISSAN DOES NOT MAKE A GOOD QUALITY PRODUCT AND I AM SORRY I EVER SWITCHED FROM MY EXPLORER TO THIS HORRIBLE CONTRAPTION OF A CAR. *TR

THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED BEFORE HOWEVER THIS TIME IT CAUSED A DICEY SITUATION. WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY THE FRONT WINDSHIELD SUN VISOR SUDDENLY DROPPED FROM THE FORWARD UP POSITION (AGAINST THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WHERE IT WAS BLOCKING THE SUN) DOWN TO A VERTICAL POSITION WHERE IT SEVERELY BLOCKED THE FRONT VISIBILITY. IT WILL NOT RELIABLY STAY IN THE UP OR SUN BLOCKING POSITION; IT WILL STAY IN THE STORED OR BACK POSITION VERY SECURELY. THE TECHNICIAN AT HANLEES NISSAN SAID THE SITUATION WAS "NORMAL" AND THERE WAS NO AUTHORIZED MODIFICATION. I CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE UNEXPECTED LOSS OF SIGHT OF THE ROAD. *JS

I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 75 MPH IN VA ON HILLS WHEN THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD BLACKED OUT. I COULD NOT SEE THE RPMS, ACTUAL SPEED I WAS GOING AS THE SPEEDOMETER AND CENTRAL PANEL THAT DISPLAYS THE MILEAGE DRIVE WERE ALL BLACK. I STARTED TO PANIC THINKING THE CAR HAD JUST SHUT DOWN - I CANNOT RECALL IF THE RADIO PANEL WAS ALSO OFF. MY INSTINCTIVE RESPONSE WAS TO STEP ON THE GAS TO SEE IF THE CAR WAS RUNNING TO WHICH I FELT THE CAR SPEED UP BUT I STILL COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING ON THE DASH. I SUBSEQUENTLY PULLED OVER AND SHUT OFF THE CAR. THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS AND READINGS WERE VISIBLE WHEN I STARTED UP THE CAR. IN HINDSIGHT, THE DASH HAD APPEARED TO FLICKER EARLIER IN THE DRIVE BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST MY VISUAL ANGLE FROM LOOKING DOWN THROUGH MY BIFOCALS. I REPORTED IT TO MY DEALER TO HAVE IT CHECKED UNDER WARRANTY. THE DEALER'S STAFF NOTED THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM AND NOTED TO BRING IT BACK WHEN THE PROBLEM WAS OCCURRING, IF IT RECURRED. NOT SURE IF THEY REALLY TESTED IT AS THE MAINTENANCE WAS DONE IN LESS THAN TWO HOURS WHICH ALSO INCLUDED AN OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION. *TR

VEHICLE SUFFERS LOSS OF POWER WHEN PULLING OUT FROM A DEAD STOP INTO TRAFFIC AND MAY HESITATE SEVERAL SECONDS BEFORE REGAINING ACCELERATION. WHEN IT DOES THIS,IT WILL THEN AT TIMES CONTINUE REVVING THE ENGINE TO EXTREME RPMS AND WILL NOT REDUCE RPMS TO THE NORMAL AS IT SHOULD, PLACING THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL WILL ALLOW THE RPMS TO LOWER AND PLACING THE VEHICLE INTO GEAR AGAIN IT WILL DRIVE NORMAL. THERE ARE NO FAILURES BEING SHOWN IN THE COMPUTER DIAGNOSTICS WHEN CHECKED BY DEALER, AND NOTHING IS FAILING. NO SET TIME FRAME OR PATTERN RELATED TO THIS ISSUE, MAY DO IT SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW AND THEN NOT FOR SEVERAL HUNDRED MILES AFTER. THERE IS NO WARNING OR FEEL THAT THIS IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN .

THE VEHICLE BEGAN ROLLING BACKWARDS AND WOULD HAVE COMPLETELY ROLLED OUT OF THE GARAGE IF I DID NOT PRESS THE BRAKE. I STARTED THE ENGINE AND PULLED IT BACK IN THE GARAGE, PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, AND IT BEGAN ROLLING BACKWARDS AGAIN. LUCKILY, THE VEHICLE DID NOT ROLL BACK IN OUR PREVIOUS PARKING SPOT OR IT WOULD HAVE ENDED UP IN THE WOODS. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY AND THEY WERE ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE.

I WANT TO PREVENT ANY ACCIDENTS FROM HAPPENING. I HAVE A NISSAN ROGUE, BOUGHT ON 12TH JUNE 2014. WHEN I MAKE A RIGHT TURN I CANNOT SEE THE FRONT RIGHT CORNER, BECAUSE OF THE RIGHT SIDE MIRROR COMPLETELY BLOCKING THE VIEW OF RIGHT CORNER OBJECT. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE PEDESTRIANS ON THE SIDE. MOST OF THE VEHICLES HAVE A SMALL GLASS WINDOW BY THE MIRROR OR THERE IS A GAP BETWEEN THE VEHICLE'S BODY AND THE MIRROR. SOMETIMES I HAVE TO GET UP FROM THE SEAT TO CHECK THE RIGHT CORNER WHEN MAKING A RIGHT TURN. I ALMOST RAN OVER TWO PEDESTRIANS. I THINK THERE IS A DEFECT AND I AM CONCERNED THAT I WILL RUN OVER SOMEONE CAUSING A MAJOR ACCIDENT. HOPING TO SEE A RESOLUTION TO PREVENT ANY ACCIDENTS FROM HAPPENING. THANK YOU *TR

I WAS ALERT BUT BEFORE I COULD REACT, THE NEXT MOMENT MY CAR ROLLED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND THEN UPSIDE DOWN (ON THE FRONT HOOD AND FRONT PART OF THE ROOF) AND GOT DRAGGED AND AT THE SAME TIME TURNED. FINALLY THE BACK OF MY CAR HIT THE CURB WITH FULL FORCE AND THEN IT RESTED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE (BETWEEN EXIT 109 AND 108) BUT NOW IT WAS FACING NORTHBOUND. I BROKE THE WINDSHIELD TO COME OUT AND WITH THE HELP FROM PASSERSBY; I COULD SAFELY BRING MY WIFE AND 3 YEAR OLD OUT OF THE CAR. ALL THESE HAPPENED SO QUICKLY BUT I REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED AS I DID NOT BLACKOUT. NEITHER MY CAR HIT ANY OTHER CAR NOR DID ANYTHING HIT MY CAR. AND LUCKILY THERE WAS NO TRUCK OR CAR FOLLOWING US. IT'S A BRAND NEW 2014 NISSAN ROGUE WHICH I BOUGHT IN JAN 2014. I STILL CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW COME SUCH A SERIOUS FAILURE COULD OCCUR. THE VEHICLE IS NOW TOTALED AND I HAVE LOGGED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN BUT I AM STILL WAITING FOR A REPLY.

I WAS DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC TAKING MY WIFE TO WORK. I WAS GOING ABOUT 15 TO 20 MPH BECAUSE OF MORNING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC IN CHICAGO IS HEAVY. I TURNED MY HEAD TO ANSWER MY WIFE AND BEING DISTRACTED I TURNED MY HEAD BACK AND SAW THE BIG SUV IN FRONT OF ME WAS STOPPED AND I SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES AND SLID INTO THE REAR OF HIS SUV.

EVEN THE POLICE COULD NOT BELIEVE HOW THE CAR WAS ALL DAMAGED AT THAT TYPE SPEEDS AND NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. ANYWAY I WAS TOLD PROBABLY I WAS GOING TOO SLOW AND SLID INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT AND MAYBE THERE IS A CERTAIN FORCE TO MAKE THEM BLOW OFF. I GOT A LITTLE OVER $5000 DAMAGE.
