Recalls and investigations
Electrical system, ignition, anti-theft, immobilizer/proximity, key/senderFeb 16, 2023
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.

Electrical system, wiring, interior/under dashJan 21, 2022
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2014-2016 Rogue vehicles. The electrical connector for the under dash harness may corrode due to water and salt intrusion from the driver's side foot well.
Corrosion in the electrical connector can result in power window/seat failure, all-wheel-drive warning light illumination, battery drainage, and electrical connector damage that increases the risk of a fire.
Dealers will remove the harness tape and harness covering and replace both connectors and apply white lithium grease to the connectors as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 23, 2022. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall is R21B9.

In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied. As a result, the passenger frontal air bag may be turned off and not deploy in the event of a crash.
If the passenger frontal air bag does not deploy as intended in the event of a crash, the passenger is at an increased risk of injury.
Nissan will notify their owners. Chevrolet City Express owners will be notified by General Motors. Dealers will reprogram the Air Bag Control Unit (ACU) and OCS Electronic Control Unit (ECU) in Altima, Maxima, Murano, Rogue, and Sentra vehicles, and replace the OCS ECU in LEAF, NV200, NV200 Taxi, Pathfinder, Infiniti Q50, JX35, and QX60 and Chevrolet City Express vehicles, free of charge.

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2015 Rogue vehicles manufactured February 10, 2015, to May 13, 2015. In the affected vehicles, due to a problem with the shift selector knob, it may be possible to shift out of the "Park" position without depressing the brake pedal.

THE CAR HAD BEEN PARKED 6:30 P.M. IN PRIVATE DRIVEWAY. AT 2:20 A.M. I WAS ALERTED BY MY NEIGHBOR . HE HAD SEEN THROUGH THE WOODS A FIRE, CALLED THE FIRE DEPT. HE THOUGHT OUR HOUSE WAS ON FIRE AND RAN OVER TO SEE IF WE WERE OK. IT WAS NOT OUR HOUSE BUT OUR 2015 NISSAN ROGUE.WHEN HE WOKE US THE CAR WAS TOTALLY ENGULFED IN FLAMES. THE FIRE DEPT ARRIVED MINUTES LATER AND IT TOOK AWHILE TO PUT THE FIRE TOTALLY OUT. NOTHING REMAINS OF THE CAR EXCEPT THE FRAMING. I HAD PURCHASED THIS CAR SIX MONTHS EARLIER WITH 20,000 MILES. IT HAD JUST TURNED 30,000 MILES. THERE WAS NO SIGN ANYTHING WAS AMISS, NO WARNING LIGHTS, ODD SOUNDS, NOTHING. WE LIVE IN A RURAL AREA, WOODED MILES OFF THE MAIN ROAD SO I DO NOT SUSPECT THIS WAS DONE BY HUMAN HANDS. I CAN ONLY IMAGE THIS WAS SOME SORT OF ELECTRICAL SHORT THAT WAS SLOWLY SIMMERING FOR HOURS. THE CAR HAD ONLY BEEN DRIVEN HOME (20 MILE TRIP) AND PARKED. THE FIRE OCCURRED 8 HOURS LATER. THERE WAS NOTHING FLAMMABLE AROUND THE CAR. I FULLY BELIEVE THE CAR SELF IGNITED DURING THE EVE. I CALLED NISSAN TO REPORT THIS BEFORE I EVEN CALLED MY INSURANCE AGENT. I ASKED FOR AN INVESTIGATION. IF THIS CAR HAD BEEN PARKED IN THE GARAGE I COULD HAVE ALSO LOST MY HOME AND MY FAMILY. I DOUBT THIS IS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT, AND I FEAR OTHERS MY NOT BE SO FORTUNATE AS TO LOOSE ONLY THE CAR AND NO OTHER DAMAGES. THE CAR HAS BEEN TAKEN AWAY AND IS TO BE INVESTIGATED MARCH 23,2018. *TT

IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED ON OTHER MODELS BUT NOT MINE APPARENTLY. THE HOOD LATCH ISSUE, MY HOOD SHAKES UNCONTROLLABLY WHILE DRIVING OVER 65 MILES AN HOUR. YOU CAN VISIBLY SEE THE HOOD SHAKING IT IS LOUD AND IT IS VERY SCARY THINKING THE HOOD MIGHT BLOW OFF THE CAR

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AND AFTER ABOUT 2 HOURS, CAR LOSES SPEED IN MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC PRESSING GAS BUT CAR RESPONDS LIKE IT WOULD HITTING THE GAS IN NEUTRAL. HAD TO COAST OFF TO A GAS STATION. UPON SEARCHING THE INTERNET FOUNF THE PROBLEM IS VERY COMMON AND A SENSOR MALFUNCTIONING SHUTS THE CVT. IT ADVISED WAIT 5 MINUTES AND IT WOULD RESET. DID THAT AND WAS ABLE TO GO ON. WAS VERY SCARY IN TRAFFIC WITH CARS ON ALL SIDES OF ME

I WAS DRIVING AND MY SUNROOF EXPLODED SPONTANEOUSLY. BRIDGEWATER NISSAN AND NISSAN COOPERATION SAID IT WAS DUE TO IMPACT, EVEN THOUGH THEY COULD NOT PROVE IT. I HAD TO REPORT IT TO MY INSURANCE TO COVER THE DAMAGES. NISSAN COULD NOT EVEN SUPPORT A VALUABLE CUSTOMER AND PAY FOR MY DEDUCTIBLE.

VIBRATION ON DRIVER SIDE. FIRST TIME AT 45 MPH ON HIGHWAY. SECOND TIME WHILE AT A DRIVE THROUGH PHARMACY AND ENTIRE CAR SHOOK, SEATS VIBRATED SO HARD I THOUGHT THEY WERE GOING TO TAKE OFF INTO SPACE AT ANY SECOND. IDLE CORRECTED BUT VIBRATION STILL THERE, ONLY NOT AS BAD. THIRD TIME I WAS TOLD A VIBRATION COULD NOT BE FELT. SECOND SERVICE MECHANIC FINALLYAD!ITTED ITWAS THE CVT AND THERE WAS NO FIXING IT. THIS ALL HAPPENED BETWEEN SEPTEMBER AND NOVEMBER 2017 WITH FOUR VISITS TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS AUTO WAS JUST PURCHASED AND I TRIED TO GET IT FIXED BEFORE THE 90 DAY WARRANTY RAN OUT

THIS IS NOT A FAILURE AT THIS TIME BUT MORE OF A SAFETY CONCERN. THE WINDSHIELD OF OUR ROGUE 'CONCAVE' IS THE AREA AROUND THE REARVIEW MIRROR (THIS CAN BE SEEN IN THE ATTACHED PHOTO - NOTE THE DISTORTION OF THE REFLECTED IMAGE OF THE TREES WITHIN BLUE CIRCLE). WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE INSIDE OF THE GLASS THAT DISTORTED AREA SLIGHT 'FLEXES' - SUGGEST A WEAK POINT IN THE GLASS. I HAVE VIDEO CAN EMAIL BUT TOO LARGE TO ATTACHED HEREIN. DEALER / NISSAN SAYS THIS IS NORMAL - I SAY ITS A 'FAILURE WAITING TO HAPPEN'. I HAVE LOOK AT OTHER SIMILAR ROGUES AND DO NOT FIND THE SAME ISSUE AS NOTED HERE. THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION AND LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR RESPONSE. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO NOTE: THE DASHBOARD OF THIS CAR ILLUMINATES ALONG WITH DAY TIME DRIVING LIGHTS WHEN ENGINE IS STARTED. HERE IS THE PROBLEM WITH THIS - IN THE EVENING THE LITE DASH GIVES THE DRIVER THE IMPRESSION 'ALL LIGHTS ARE ON' - AND YES THE DAY TIME LIGHTS ARE BRIGHT ENOUGH TO DRIVE AT NITE - BUT ALL THE TAIL LIGHTS / MAIN HEAD LIGHTS ARE OFF. TO PROVE THIS AS A POTENTIAL PROBLEM - SO FAR I HAVE SEEN 3 ROGUES DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH NO TAIL / HEAD LIGHTS !

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON SNOW COVERED ROADS, IT WILL FIRST SHAKE AND SHUDDER THEN IT WILL EVENTUALLY STALL. NO WARNING LIGHTS OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS COME ON, ONCE VEHICLE SITS FOR 10-15 MINUTES WITH THE ENGINE OFF THE VEHICLE WILL START BUT AFTER A SHORT DISTANCE IF THE ROAD CONDITIONS REMAIN THE SAME- SNOW COVERED IT CONTINUES TO STALL.
Electrical system, Other or unspecified, Engine, Feb 26, 2017
THE CAR HAS A KEYLESS OPERATION. AFTER SERVICE AN REPROGRAMMING FOR A CVT ISSUE, THE ENGINE FAILED TO START AFTER SITTING IN THE GARAGE OVERNIGHT. IN ORDER TO START, THE BRAKE MUST BE ENGAGED BEFORE PUSHING THE START BUTTON. THIS DID NOT WORK AND THE START ENGINE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON. PUSHING THE START BUTTON RESULTED IN CLICKING NOISE BUT THE SOLENOID (IF THIS CAR HAS ONE) DID NOT ENGAGE. AFTER TRYING SEVERAL TIMES AND TURNING LIGHTS ON AND OFF, THE CAR STARTS. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE IGNITION WOULD DISENGAGE WHILE DRIVING. ONCE THE VEHICLE STARTED, IT DID NOT SHUT OFF UNTIL I TURNED IT OFF; BUT I HAVEN'T TESTED DRIVING IT. THE CAR NEVER DID THIS UNTIL THE COMPUTER REPROGRAMMING DONE THIS PAST THURSDAY FEBRUARY 24TH WHEN I HAD THE CAR SERVICE BEFORE LEAVING ON A TRIP.

FORT WORTH NISSAN SOLD DEFECTIVE CAR. 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE NEW 2015 NISSAN ROGUE , BRAKE PEDAL WOULD SQEAK WHEN DEPRESSING AND LETTING OFF PEDAL .DEALERSHIP WHERE PURCHASED SAID THIS WAS NORMAL WITH THE 2015 ROGUE MODEL. REPORTED 3 DIFFERENT TIMES DEC 2015, FEB 2016, AND MAR 2016. IT WOULD GET SO LOUD AT TIMES SPECIALLY AFTER HAVING CAR OUT IN RAIN. CONTACTED NISSAN CORPORATE 6/13/2016 AND REP SAID GO TO ANOTHER DEALER SHIP FOR SECOND OPINION. WENT TO ANOTHER DEALER SHIP 7/2016 GRUBBS NISSAN DEALER SHIP AND JULY 2017 BRAKE BOOSTER WAS FOUND TO BE DEFECTIVE.

I RECEIVED RECALL NOTICES ABOUT THIS AND OTHER ISSUES. I CONTACTED PORRECO NISSAN IN ERIE, PA (WHO SOLD ME THE CAR) AND WAS TOLD NOT TO WORRY ABOUT IT IF I WASN'T HAVING PROBLEMS. I THEN CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND WAS TOLD THAT THE DEALERSHIP NEEDED TO TAKE CARE OF IT. I MADE THE HOUR AND A HALF TREK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAD IT SERVICED - I THINK. NOW, I AM RECEIVING NOTICES FROM NISSAN TELLING ME IT WASN'T DONE, WHICH MAKES ME SEEM NEGLIGENT. I CALLED NISSAN AND CAN'T EVEN GET SOMEONE WHO SPEAKS GOOD ENOUGH ENGLISH TO UNDERSTAND MY ISSUE AND GET ME TO SOMEONE IN NISSAN NORTH AMERICA'S TENNESSEE OFFICE. AFTER ALREADY HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE DEALERSHIP, I DON'T KNOW IF THEY TRULY PERFORMED THE WORK OR NOT, SINCE NISSAN CORPORATE IS STILL SENDING ME THESE LETTERS. I DON'T KNOW WHO TO TRUST AT THIS POINT AND NEED SOME INTERVENTION. *TR

THE FORWARD COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM (FCW) DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. I HAVE ROAD TESTED IT BY DRIVING UP TO ANOTHER VEHICLE TO WITHIN WHAT I WOULD CONSIDER A UNSAFE DISTANCE WITHOUT GETTING A WARNING SIGNAL. NISSAN SAYS THE SYSTEM IS WORKING BUT WILL NOT ROAD TEST IT BECAUSE IT MIGHT POSE A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD. (CATCH 22).

MY CAR IS HAVING VERY BAD VIBRATION. IT IS THERE SINCE I BROUGHT THE CAR AND I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER 4 TIMES COMPLAINING THE ISSUE AND THE DEALER SAYS THAT THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. WHEN I SHOWED THE PROBLEM TO THE NISSAN MECHANIC THEY SAID THAT IT IS NORMAL WITH NISSAN AND NISSAN DOSEN'T HAVE A FIX FOR IT. THE CURRENT MILEAGE OF MY CAR IS 11200 AND THE VIBRATION INCREASES DURING THE WINTER AND WHEN THE HEAT OR AC IS POWERED ON. I AM WORRIED ABOUT THIS BECAUSE TOO MUCH VIBRATION CAN LEAD TO LOOSENING OF PARTS THAT MIGHT RESULT IN ACCIDENT OR ENGINE FAILURE. 2015 HONDA CRV HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM HAS ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE ISSUE AND IT IS CLEAR THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT CAN BE FIXED, AND NISSAN DOSEN'T WANT TO LOOSE MONEY BY CREATING A RECALL FOR THIS FIX. THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH ALL THE NISSAN ROGUES. MANY PEOPLE DIDN'T NOTICE THIS AND SOME THINK THIS IS NORMAL WITH THE CAR AS THEY HAVE NOT OWNED ANOTHER NEW CAR BEFORE. THIS ANNOYING AS WELL AS SAFETY ISSUE HAS TO BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION AND PROVIDE A RECALL FOR ALL THE OWNERS OF THE NISSAN ROGUE. AFTER RESEARCHING FOR 2 YEARS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS THE CAUSE FOR ALL OTHER SAFETY PROBLEMS CONCERNED WITH THIS CAR.

ALMOST 3 MONTHS INTO CAR WHILE DRIVING SPEED WAS LIKE WHEN THE CAR IS IN NEUTRAL(BUT ON DRIVE) & IF I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL NOTHING HAPPENED THEN IT TURNED OFF. I THOUGHT IT WAS A 1 TIME THING, THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN ALMOST 2 MONTHS AFTER, DEALER SAID WE CANT FIND THE PROBLEM. IT HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES THEY COULD NEVER FIND THE ISSUE. THEN IT WOULDNT EVEN TURN ON MAKING A LOUD NOISE THEN SAYING KEY NOT DETECTED. THEN AFTER THIS TOWING COMPANY JUMP STARTED CAR, & AT THE DEALER IT HAPPENED TO THEM ONCE. THEY SAID THEY TESTED EVERYTHING BUT CAR WOULD SAY KEY NOT DETECTED. THEN AFTER WE TOLD THEM WE SUBMITTED EVERYTHING TO CORP[ORATE OFFICE THEY SAID IT WAS JUST THE BATTERY & IT DIDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. SERVICE MANAGER SAID THAT THE JUICE IN THE BATTERY WAS ALL DRAINED & SOMETHING ELSE HAD TO CAUSE THAT ESPECIALLY WHEN IT SAYS KEY NOT DETECTED. THAT THEY DON'T FEEL SAFE US TAKING CAR BACK UNTIL THEY CAN FIND ISSUE BUT LUIS AT NISSAN NORTH AMERICA SAID THAT IS NOT WHAT SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD THEM. THAT THEY CAN'T HELP US DOING A BUY OUT FOR THIS DEFECTIVE CAR BECAUSE TO THEM NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT. THIS IS A VERY HAZARDOUS AND UNSAFE MATTER AND THE LAST TIME IT TURNED OFF ON ME I WAS IN THE HIGHWAY I45 HAD TO SLOWLY LET IT GO TO THE SIDE ROAD UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO TURN BACK ON. AT THE MOMENT IS STILL AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE ONLY PERSON TRYING TO HELP & SEEM CONCERN IS DOUG AT SERVICE DEPT.

INTERIOR IS DARK GREY WITH SHINY CHROME FIXTURES WHICH REFLECTS IN SIDE MIRRORS CAUSING DISTRACTION, HAZARDOUS SAFETY ISSUE. DAYTIME CAN SEE REFLECTION OF DRIVER IN WINDOW. NIGHTTIME THE DASH PANEL WITH IT'S LIGHTS GLARE OUTSIDE DRIVER WINDOW BLOCKING SIDE MIRROR VIEW OF TRAFFIC VISIBILITY. SITUATION IS ANNOYING & A SAFETY CONCERN. NISSAN DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO HELP CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A NEW VEHICLE (PURCHASED ON 9/16/15) & NISSAN SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR DRIVER SAFETY.

COULD LEAD TO WINDOW BREAKING OR EXPLODING AT SPEED, CAUSING HEAVY DISTRACTION AND POTENTIAL ACCIDENT. RATTLE VARIES BETWEEN WINDOWS (IN MY VEHICLE, DRIVERS WINDOW IS WORST), SO IT LOOKS LIKE A VARIANCE IN PRODUCTION OF VEHICLE. THE HIGHER THE SPEED, THE MORE THE WINDOW SHAKES.

TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY ABOUT 60 MPH WHEN A SEMI PASSED US GOING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. AFTER HE PASSED THERE WAS A LOUD EXPLOSION. WE HAD NO IDEA WHAT HAD HAPPENED. WE DISCOVERED THAT THE SUNROOF WAS COMPLETELY SHATTERED AND GLASS WAS EVERYWHERE. LUCKILY WE HAD THE INSIDE ROOF COVER CLOSED OR WE WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED WITH GLASS. WE THOUGHT A ROCK HAD BEEN KICKED UP BY THE SEMI BUT NO ROCK WAS FOUND. WE HAD PURCHASED OUR VEHICLE ON MAY 14, 2015 AND THIS HAPPENED EXACTLY ONE WEEK LATER ON MAY 21, 2015. TOTAL COST OF REPLACING SUNROOF WAS $1914.07. WE WERE STILL UNDER ASSUMPTION THAT IT WAS A ROCK THAT CAUSED THE DAMAGE UNTIL WE SAW THE WORLD NEWS REPORT ON EXPLODING SUNROOFS. THIS MATCHED OUR INCIDENT TO THE TEE.

THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE DOORS DO NOT UNLOCK UNTIL YOU PRESS THE ENGINE STOP BUTTON. THEN ALL THE DOORS UNLOCK, NOT JUST THE DRIVER'S DOOR. THAT MAKES IT VERY EASY FOR CAR JACKERS, PURSE SNATCHERS, AND CHILD ABDUCTORS TO WAIT AT A GAS STATION FOR YOU TO PULL UP, TURN OFF YOUR ENGINE SO YOU CAN GET OUT, AND COMMIT THEIR CRIME WHEN ALL THE DOORS UNLOCK. OBVIOUSLY THE SAME WOULD BE TRUE IF FOR SOME REASON YOU WERE PULLING INTO A SHOPPING MALL OR GROCERY STORE PARKING LOT. THERE IS A METHOD TO REVERSE THE OPERATION SO NO DOORS UNLOCK WHEN YOU TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND THIS IS SAFER, EXCEPT:..THE DRIVER'S DOOR LOCK AND FRONT PASSENGER DOOR LOCK ARE NOT MECHANICALLY CONNECTED THE THE DOOR HANDLE. IE, IF YOU DISABLE THE AUTO DOOR UNLOCK, YOU CANNOT OPEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR IN AN EMERGENCY -- LIKE A CAR FIRE, HEART ATTACK, ACCIDENT -- UNLESS YOU CAN FIND AND RELEASE THE DOOR LOCK WHICH HAS BEEN "AESTHETICALLY" HIDDEN IN THE DOOR AND DESIGNED SO IT IS NOT EASILY OPENED -- I ASSUME TO PREVENT SOMEONE FROM USING A WIRE TO UNLOCK THE DOOR. THIS IS THE FIRST VEHICLE I HAVE EVER DRIVEN THAT THE DRIVER (AND FRONT SEAT PASSENGER) CANNOT EXIT WITHOUT MANUALLY FINDING AND FLIPPING THE DOOR LOCK. HOW INSANE IS THAT? ... I MENTIONED THAT NONE OF MY AMERICAN CARS HAD THIS PROBLEM AND THE MECHANIC I WAS TALKING TO SAID IT WAS ONLY A NISSAN THING. NO OTHER CAR THAT HE KNOWS OF WILL NOT LET THE DRIVER EXIT THE CAR BY PULLING THE DOOR HANDLE...HIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND YOU TRULY HAVE VERY LITTLE CONTROL OVER YOUR OWN SECURITY IN THIS VEHICLE. ANY PERSON WITH ANY KIND OF EVEN MINOR HAND DISABILITY, LIKE ARTHRITIS, WOULD HAVE A VERY HARD TIME UNLOCKING THE CAR DOORS. THE TRULY CRAZY THING IS THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT, MAYBE, 5-10 CENTS OF CLOTHES HANGER-TYPE WIRE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND POTENTIALLY SAVE PEOPLE'S LIVES. DOES THIS VIOLATE ADA RULES?.....UPDATED 09/22/15 *BF UPDATED 11/27/2017*CN
