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.

ABOUT AT LEAST HALF OF THE TIME THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS OCCUPIED BY AN ADULT, THE INDICATOR LIGHT IS ON SAYING THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG IS TURNED OFF. THE VIN HAS NO CURRENT RECALLS SO IT APPEARS THAT THE PREVIOUS OWNER MUST HAVE TAKEN CARE OF THE PREVIOUSLY ISSUED RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, YET IT IS STILL CONTINUING. IT HAS HAPPENED AT ALL SPEEDS.
Steering, Structure, Oct 20, 2019
THE BACK TRUNK WHEN OPENING HAS A HORRIBLE SCREECHING NOISE AND IS NOT SMOOTH OPENING. JUST BOUGHT THIS AS A USED CAR SO I'M SURE NOT IF I MISSED A PRIOR RECALL. ALSO THE STEERING WHEN I TURN THE WHEEL AT A SLOW SPEED MAKES A LOW GROANING NOISE
Electrical system, Oct 10, 2019
THE IPDM (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE) WAS FOUND INOPERABLE. THIS RESULTED IN THE VEHICLE NOT BEING ABLE TO BE STARTED. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN PARKED IN THE GARAGE PREVIOUS TO THE EVENT AND WAS UNABLE TO BE MOVED FROM THE GARAGE UNDER ITS OWN POWER FOLLOWING THE EVENT. NO DETERMINATION WAS MADE ON WHAT LED TO THE IPDM BEING RENDERED INOPERABLE.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2016 NISSAN ROGUE S AWD WITH ABOUT 30,034 MILES ON IT. THE NEXT DAY AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 75 MILES IT STARTED JERKING AND STALLING IN TRAFFIC, AND HAVING ISSUES GOING FROM PARK TO DRIVE AND DRIVE TO REVERSE. ON THE DAY AFTER, WHICH IS TODAY THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE AND INSTEAD OF DRIVING FORWARD WHILE IN DRIVE, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO ROLL BACKWARDS ON OUR SIDE WALK WITH MY 6 YEAR OLD SON AND I INSIDE. MY FIANC AND I ATTEMPTED TO GET THE VEHICLE TO SHIFT GEARS AND WE WERE NOT SUCCESSFUL. IT SEEMS AS IF THE CVT TRANSMISSION FAILED. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CAME TO PICK IT UP VIA TOW.
Power train, Oct 7, 2019
CAR LOST ACCELERATION WHEN GOING DOWN A LONG HILL AT ABOUT 45 MPH ON THE MAIN ROAD FROM OUR HOUSE TO OUR TOWN. RPM'S WERE GOING UP AND DOWN WITHOUT ANY PRESSURE APPLIED TO GAS OR BRAKES. CAR WAS THEN HARD TO PUT INTO GEAR, YOU COULD GET IT TO ENGAGE AFTER 5-10 TIMES TRYING. NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. THIS WAS LESS THAN 2MOS AFTER THE PC490 CAMPAIGN WAS PREFORMED ON MY CAR AND A TRANSMISSION OIL CHANGE.
Engine, Oct 5, 2019
AFTER ABOUT 60K MILES, I NOTICED MY 2016 NISSAN ROGUE STARTED TO BECOME SLUGGISH. IT WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY. I HAD TO REV IT UP TO AT LEAST 4 OR 5 RPM TO GET IT TO EVEN TAKE OFF. THERE WAS A DELAY IN RESPONSE TO ME PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL. THE ENGINE STARTED TO SHUDDER AND SHAKE MORE THAN BEFORE. I FELT LIKE I HAD TO FLOOR IT TO EVEN GO 30. THIS WAS VERY SCARY WHEN PULLING IN FRONT OF TRAFFIC THAT WAS ALREADY GOING 60 ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY ENOUGH TO KEEP UP WITH THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. AT 70K, IT EXPERIENCED SEVERAL EPISODES OF COMPLETE FAILURE. I'LL DESCRIBE ONE OF MY EXPERIENCES AS BEST AS POSSIBLE. AFTER DRIVING THE ROGUE FOR ABOUT AN HOUR IN STOP AND GO RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, I DECIDED TO STOP AT STARBUCKS TO CALM MY NERVES. I WAITED IN THE DRIVE THROUGH FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES. WHEN PULLING OUT ONTO THE HIGHWAY, MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO ABOVE 15MPH. I WAS FLOORING IT, TRYING TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF TRAFFIC, BUT THE VEHICLE SIMPLY WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I PULLED INTO THE CENTER LANE, AND TURNED MY CAR COMPLETELY OFF. I SET FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES. THEN I STARTED THE ENGINE BACK UP. IT RAN FINE AFTER THAT. HOWEVER, THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT CONTINUES TO OCCUR. I WAS FORTUNATE TO HAVE A PLACE TO PULL OVER, BUT WHAT IF I'M NOT SO LUCKY NEXT TIME? WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I TRIED TO CROSS A BUSY STREET AND MY VEHICLE JUST STOPPED? I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY WITH MY KIDS INSIDE! I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES. THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG AND NO RECALLS, BUT DID DO A TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE UPDATE. THAT DID NOT HELP. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED!!!!
Air bags, Sep 30, 2019, crash

MY VEHICLE WILL LOSE POWER OUT OF NOWHERE WHEN I'M DRIVING CAUSING ME TO NOT BE ABLE TO ACCELERATE ABOVE 40MPH AT 4-5 RPM, THE GAS PEDDLE DOES NOT WORK YOU CAN FEEL THE PULL ON THE CAR THERE IS NO POWER. I NEED TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS TO NOT BLOW MY TRANSMISSION BUT THEN I DROP TO ABOUT 20MPH AND ON HIGHWAYS OR EVEN SIDE ROADS THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NOT ALWAYS POSSIBLE. BECAUSE THIS ONLY HAPPENS HERE AND THERE (3 TIMES IN THE LAST MONTH) AND NEVER PREDICTABLY, THE DEALERSHIP IS SAYING THEY CANNOT FIX OR DO ANYTHING TO THE CAR WITHOUT THE ISSUE HAPPENING THERE UNDER THEIR SUPERVISION. AS I STATED, THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND WELL DOCUMENTED FROM CURRENT AND PREVIOUS NISSAN OWNERS AND EVERYONE'S DESCRIPTION OF THE INCIDENTS ARE IDENTICAL. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AND THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED ON ALL VEHICLES BEFORE SOMEONE DIES. WHEN MY I TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP IT STATES THAT MY BATTERY WAS BAD THEN RECOMMEND ME TO CHANGE THE POSITIVE TERMINAL SO I SAY I HAVE BOUGHT THE BATTERY FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND IT IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY SO THEY REPLACE THE BATTERY THEN I AGREE TO CHANGE THE POSITIVE TERMINAL SINCE IT WAS UNDER $100. AFTER CHANGE BOTH TAKE IT BACK AND DRIVE ON THE FREEWAY AND IT HAPPENS AGAIN AND I WAS ABLE TO START MY CAR UP AND TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAY THE FUSE WAS LOOSED SO THEY RELEASE THE CAR TO ME AND IT HAS STALLED AT NIGHT MY MY CHILDREN IN IT AND I HAVE TO GET HELP AND PUSH MY CAR IN KROGER PARKING LOT AND PLAN TO TOW TO THE DEALERSHIP IN THE MORNING. THE NEXT MORNING IT STARTS UP SO I DRIVE TO MY FRIEND HOUSE TO PARK IT THERE AND WAIT UNTIL MONDAY TO TAKE IT BACK, THEY THEN THIS TIME WANT ME TO CHANGE THE CHAISSY CONTROL AND I HAVE TOLD THEM THAT IS NOT THE PROBLEM. I HAD ENOUGH WITH THEM SO DECIDE TO CALL CORPORATE TO FILE A COMPLAINT AND NOW MY CAR IS STILL AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR OVER TWO WEEKS. ECM CHANGE BUT CODE STILL
Electrical system, Air bags, Seats, Sep 24, 2019
THE PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF LIGHT TURNS ON WHEN PASSENGER IS SEATED AND THE LIGHT TURNS OFF WHEN SEAT IS EMPTY. THIS SEEMS LIKE A VERY BIG SAFETY ISSUE SINCE THE AIRBAG WILL NOT GO ACTIVATE WHEN SOMEONE IS SEATED.
Seats, Aug 11, 2019
WHEN BRAKING ONE CAN FEEL THE DRIVERS SEAT LIFT FORWARD AS IF IT ISN'T BOLTED ON CORRECTLY. IF ONE WERE TO GET IN A COLLISION IT FEELS LIKE IF THE SEAT WOULD JUST FLY OFF. IT'S FELT THIS WAY SINCE I GOT THE VEHICLE.
Fuel/propulsion system, Aug 9, 2019
FUEL PROPORTION INCORRECT FUEL GAUGE READING. I CAN'T TELL IF THE TANK IS FULL OR NOT UNABLE TO READ AND TRYING TO ADD GAS IT SPILLS OUT.

CAR SUDDENLY STOPS ACCELERATING WHILE DRIVING (THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY). CVT TRANSMISSION REPLACED AT 9,000 MILES (YES, BRAND NEW CAR) AND NOW NEEDS NEW CVT FOR SAME PROBLEM AT 69,000 MILES, HOWEVER THIS TIME NOT UNDER WARRANTY. TWO TRANSMISSION FAILURES UNDER DANGEROUS CIRCUMSTANCES WITH NO WARNING! NOT A GOOD TRACK RECORD NISSAN.

THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH NISSAN CVT TRANSMISSIONS IN THIS YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE. NISSAN IS ACCEPTING NO RESPONSIBILITY AND ISSUING NO RECALLS.

I PURCHASED A 2016 ROGUE SV (VIN [XXX], I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE SINCE I BROUGHT IT HOME. I HAD THE HEAD UNIT REPLACE NO LESS THAN 4 SEPARATE TIMES BECAUSE IT WOULD STOP WORKING AND GO BLACK. THE CAR HAD LESS THAN 10,000 MILES ON IT. I WAS TOLD IT WAS BEING REPLACED WITH A "BRAND NEW UNIT". THE DEALERSHIP FORGOT TO TRANSFER MY XM SUBSCRIPTION TO THE NEW UNIT, SO WHEN I CALLED TO ACTIVATE I FIND OUT NOT ONLY IS IT NOT NEW, ITS 4 YEARS OLDER THAN THE CAR I OWN. WHILE REPLACING THIS THE TECHNICIANS DESTROYED THE SURROUNDING TRIM. LAST JUNE MY CAR STARTED STALLING OUT, THIS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE ENGINE DIED BUT THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS STAYED ON. IT HAS DIED AT GAS STATIONS, STOP LIGHTS AND PULLING ONTO A ROADWAY. IT CONTINUES TO SHUDDERS AT STOP LIGHTS. NISSAN WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE EVENTS SO I WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT HOME. LAST WEEK MY ROGUE BEGAN TO PUSH 6000 RPMS WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY, PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND I NEVER MADE IT ABOVE 45MPH. DURING THIS EVENT THE CAR WOULDN'T GO BELOW 4000RPMS, THIS EVENT LASTED ABOUT 30MINS. THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND WE HAVE VIDEO OF THE EVENTS, ABOUT 15 MINUTES WORTH. I WAS TOLD THIS WEEK THAT THE DEALERSHIP HAD SENT THE ISSUES TO NISSAN, AND THAT WITH THE VIDEO/THE COMPLAINTS THAT NISSAN WOULD REPLACE AND FIX WHAT THEY BELIEVED TO BE THE PROBLEM, SOMETHING WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THE DEALERSHIP THEN CALLED MY HUSBAND AND TOLD HIM THAT WE COULD PICK UP THE VEHICLE AND TAKE IT HOME. THEY TOLD HIM THAT "NISSAN CREATED A TECHNOLOGY" THAT IS NOW INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE SO THE NEXT TIME AN EVENT HAPPENS IT WILL RECORD IT, TO CONTINUE DRIVING IT FOR A 1,000 MILES. I FEEL UNSAFE IN THIS VEHICLE. I DO NOT TRUST THIS VEHICLE TO DELIVER MY DAUGHTER AND I SAFELY AND RELIABLY TO OUR DESTINATION. I WILL BE HAPPY TO SHARE THE VIDEO AS WELL INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT

THE 2016 ROGUE SL AWD MAKES A POPPING NOISE WHEN MAKING SHARPER TURNS IN EITHER DIRECTION SUCH AS WHEN PULLING INTO OR OUT OF PARKING SPACES. IT ALSO DOES IT WHEN BACKING OUT AND CUTTING THE WHEEL. THE CAR IS LOW MILEAGE AND SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS TYPE OF ISSUE.
Air bags, Jun 3, 2019
MY PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT TURNS ON EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A PASSENGER OR NOT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I COULD BE DRIVING ALONE AND IT IS TURNING ON AND OFF.
Electrical system, Vehicle speed control, May 16, 2019
FOR THE LAST FEW WEEKS I'VE NOTICED MY TRUCK WILL HAVE PROBLEMS ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW HARD I PUSH ON THE PEDAL IT JUST SITS THERE THEN JUMPS INTO ACTION. IT MAKES DRIVING IN STOP AND GO RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC HORRIBLE. YOU WANT TO MOVE WITH TRAFFIC NOT RUN INTO THE BACK OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. AND TO TOP OFF THE WEEK THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WILL NOT COME BACK UP AFTER BEING ROLLED DOWN. IT TAKES AT LEAST A MIN OR TWO BEFORE IT STARTS TO COME UP. BUT IT DOESN'T ROLL ALL THE WAY UP WITH OUT YOU HOLDING THE BUTTON.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Other or unspecified, May 10, 2019
-CAR HAS 56,000 MILES -A FEW TIMES OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS, IT HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A FULL STOP -YESTERDAY, IT HAPPENED A LOT, AND SEVERAL TIMES I EVEN PUSHED THE ACCELERATOR TO THE FLOOR, AND NOTHING HAPPENED...THEN IT SUDDENLY REVVED AND SHOT FORWARD AFTER A FEW SECONDS. TERRIFYING. -I RESEARCHED AND IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE, BUT TODAY THE DEALER SAID THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE NO ERROR CODES, ETC., ARE SHOWING UP.
Seat belts, May 8, 2019
SEAT BELT - BACK DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT WOULD NOT FASTEN. THE METAL PORTION OF THE BELT WOULD NOT "CLICK" INTO THE SEAT PIECE. PURCHASED THE VEHICLE LESS THAN 30 DAYS AGO FROM CARMAX, SO IT IS COVERED BY THEIR 30-DAY WARRANTY. HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THIS ISSUE REVIEWED AND RESOLVED AT THE END OF THIS MONTH.
Air bags, May 8, 2019
THE SRS LIGHT ON MY 2016 NISSAN ROGUE WENT ON. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY TOLD ME THEY NEED TO REPLACE THE AIRBAG TO TRY AND SOLVE THE ISSUE WHICH IS VERY COSTLY. THEY TOLD ME THERE IS A 50/50 CHANCE THIS WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WHICH EXCLUDES ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. THE AIRBAG SYSTEM SHOULD NOT BE HAVING ISSUES THIS EARLY ON IN THE CAR'S LIFE. THERE HAS BEEN NO ACCIDENT/COLLISION. I DEFINITELY THINK THIS HAS TO BE A DEFECT WITH THE CAR ITSELF. AND I'M RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COSTS OUT OF POCKET. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE.
