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.

I SEE 5 RECALLS FOR MY CAR BUT I GET LETTER FROM THE MANUFACTURER FOR 2 RECALL BUT I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS OTHER THREE. AFTER I GET THE LETTER I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THE FIXED THE AIR BAGS. AS SOON AS I DRIVE THE CAR 10 MILES, THE SAME THING HAPPEN AGAIN PASSENGER SITE AIR BAG SIGN ALWAYS SHOW UP. 2016 CAR NOT COOLING PROPERLY ONLY THE FAN RUNNING IN THE CAR WHEN I TURN ON A/C.
Visibility/wiper, Apr 30, 2019
REAR VIEW MIRROR FELL OFF WHILE BEING ADJUSTED BY DRIVER AND TOOK A CHUNK OF THE WINDSHIELD GLASS WITH IT. THE CAR IS ONLY THREE YEARS OLD AND HAS THE ORIGINAL WINDSHIELD AND REAR VIEW MIRROR. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION OF A CITY STREET AT THE TIME.
Structure, Other or unspecified, Apr 26, 2019
DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE HOOD OF THE NISSAN ROGUE IS LATCHED BUT THE ACTUAL HOOD WILL MOVE (FLAP) WHEN DRIVING OVER 45-50 MPH. THIS STARTED THE SAME DAY THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO GET IT IN BECAUSE OF WAIT TIME AT THE LOCATION. I HAVE WENT TO THE PLACE WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED AT CARMAX, BUT THEY SAID IT WAS A PROBLEM THAT NISSAN INFORMED THEM ABOUT AND THERE WAS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE. NISSAN TOLD THEM THAT THERE WERE MANY OTHER VEHICLES THAT HAVE THE SAME DEFECT BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE CAR WAS MADE AND THE ONLY SOLUTION WAS TO TIGHTEN THE HOOD TO A CERTAIN EXTENT ACCORDING TO CARMAX. AFTER LEAVING THE LOCATION AND 3 DAYS LATER THE HOOD OF MY CAR IS FLAPPING AND MOVING EVEN MORE THAN BEFORE, I FEEL LIKE THIS WILL EVETUALLY LEAD TO ANOTHER PROBLEM BECAUSE YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE HOOD MOVING WHILE DRIVING AND THE PERSON AT THE CARMAX LOCATION WAS AWARE OF HOW MUCH IT WAS MOVING DURING A TEST DRIVE. I HAVE TRIED TO LOOK UP INFORMATION ABOUT THE VEHICLE BECAUSE I WAS TOLD IT WAS AN ONGOING PROBLEM, BUT AS OF NOW I HAVE NOT FOUND ANYTHING RELATED TO THE PROBLEM I AM HAVING. I DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE IN THAT STATE BECAUSE IT COULD GET WORSE AND EVENTUALLY BECAUSE OF THE SPEED OF THE HIGHWAY I DRIVE ON (70MPH US 1 NC) IT COULD POSSIBLE AFFECT THE LATCH OR SOMETHING ELSE.
Suspension, Power train, Apr 20, 2019
ABOUT A YEAR AGO (2018) MY CAR STARTED OCCASIONALLY LOSING POWER AFTER I HAD STOPPED AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN AFTER DRIVING ON A CITY STREET OR GETTING OFF THE HIGHWAY. I WOULD PUSH THE GAS PEDAL AND MY CAR WOULD NOT MOVE UNTIL ABOUT 5 SECONDS LATER. IF I KEEP DRIVING WHILE THIS HAPPENS, EVENTUALLY THE CAR WILL NOT GO OVER 40 MPH, THE RPMS WILL GO UP TO 4K-5K AND THE ENGINE WILL REV WITHOUT GAINING SPEED. IT WILL THEN START LURCHING FORWARD AND JERKING BACK AND FORTH. I FINALLY FIGURED OUT THAT IF I STOP AND THEN RESTART MY CAR, THE ISSUE SUBSIDES. HOWEVER, THIS ISSUE HAS STARTED HAPPENING MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY. I WOULD ESTIMATE DRIVING THE CAR FOR AN HOUR, IT WILL HAPPEN 7-8 TIMES (WHEN TURNING THE CAR OFF, THEN ON AGAIN). IT MAKES DRIVING DANGEROUS WHEN I AM NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE WHEN NEEDED OR WHEN MY CAR IS JERKING UNCONTROLLABLY. MY STRUTS ALSO KEEP SQUEAKING WHEN I GO OVER SPEED BUMPS OR ANY OTHER BUMP. THE DEALER REPEATEDLY TELLS ME IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE BUT NOTHING THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED SINCE IT'S NOT A SAFETY ISSUE.
Power train, Fuel/propulsion system, Apr 8, 2019
IN OCTOBER OF 2018 I TOOK MY SUV WITH PICTURES TO LET THEM KNOW THAT I TACHOMETER WAS GOING UP TO HIGH I WAS PUTTING ON THE GAS BUT MY VEHICLE WASN'T MOVING. THEY HAD IT FOR THREE DAYS AND SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. I WENT BACK TO HAVE MY OIL CHANGED AND I LET ME KNOW I WAS STILL HAVING THE PROBLEMS. NOTHING EVERY DONE. ON SATURDAY I WENT AN GOT GAS AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON I TOOK IT TO O'REILLY TO SEE WHAT THE CODE SHOWED IT SAID DTC P0776; PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID B. THERE WAS A YOUNG MAN THAT WORKED ON CARS THERE AND HE EXPLAINED TO ME THE ISSUE WAS IN THE TRANSMISSION. HE SAID THIS DOESN'T OCCUR OVER NIGHT AND HAD I TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND I TOLD HIM YES AND HE TOLD ME TO CALL THEM. I CALLED THEM THIS MORNING AND THE SERVICE MANGER TOLD ME I NEVER COMPLAINED AGAIN AND I DID BUT NOTHING WAS DONE. MAYBE IT BECAUSE I DIDN'T PURCHASE IT FROM THEM. I HAVE 66,000 MILES THIS A SHAME THEY DON'T CARE. I AM CURRENTLY IN GARY, INDIANA HELPING TO ASSIST WITH MY ELDERLY MOTHER THAT HAS DEMENTIA, THIS IS THE REASON I WENT TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN ADDRESS: 220 VERPLANK ROAD, CHESTERTON, IN 46304 PHONE: (219) 787-1777 AT: BOB ROHRMAN PLEASE CONTACT ME BY EMAIL OR PHONE
Fuel/propulsion system, Apr 7, 2019
THE ACCELERATOR SENSING IS ERRATIC. SEEMS ACCENTUATED WHEN TURNING EITHER DIRECTION. WHEN TURNING AND LEAVING A STOP, OFTEN INSTEAD OF ACCELERATING PROPORTIONALLY TO ACCELERATOR DEPRESSION, IT WILL ACTUALLY SLOW DOWN INSTEAD OF SPEED UP. THIS COULD BE QUITE DANGEROUS WHEN TURNING INTO THE PATH OF AN ONCOMING VEHICLE THAT IS FAR ENOUGH AWAY THAT NORMAL ACCELERATION WOULD PLACE YOU OUT OF THE ONCOMING CARS' PATH. INSTEAD, YOU MAY BE SLOWED ENOUGH UNEXPECTEDLY TO BE IN THAT ONCOMING CARS' PATH. MENTIONING THIS ON A FORUM ON THE WEB BROUGHT A RESPONSE THAT QUESTIONED THE PROPER FUNTIONING OF THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. THIS FAILURE IS INTERMITTENT. ONE NEVER KNOWS WHETHER THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP WHEN TURNING WILL MEET THE EXPECTED AND REQUIRED RESULT. INTERMITTENT UNINTENDED SMALL BURSTS OF ACCELERATION OCCUR SPORADICALLY WHEN TRYING TO DRIVE SLOWLY THROUGH A PARKING LT FOR INSTANCE. I LIKEN IT TO A DIRTY OR DEFECTIVE VOLUME CONTROL ON AN OLD RADIO, WHERE TURNING THE KNOB TO INCREASE VOLUME HAS LITTLE TO NO EFFECT UNTIL YOU TURN IT FAR ENOUGH TO REACH A NON-DEFECTIVE SPOT IN THE CONTROL AND THE VOLUME IMMEDIATELY JUMPS SIGNIFICANTLY.

TRANSMISSION FAILED AT 59,000 MILES. TRUCK JUST STOP AND LOST POWER. IT WOULDN'T GO INTO GEAR ACCELERATE OR ANYTHING. THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DOING 55MPH IT JUST SHUT DOWN AND THANK GOD I WAS ABLE TO ROLL TO THE SHOULDER. THERE WAS NO WARNING.

2016 NISSAN ROGUE SL AWD FORWARD EMERGENCY BREAKING SYSTEM GIVES WARNING WHEN THERE IS NOTHING IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENS SPORADICALLY, DAY OR NIGHT, WET OR DRY ATMOSPHERE, AND AT MULTIPLE LOCATIONS (STRAIGHT STRETCHS OF HIGHWAY, 4 WAY INTERSECTIONS, STOPLIGHTS, RAILROAD CROSSINGS, BRIDGES/OVERPASSES). IT HAS BEEN TAKEN TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE MULTIPLE TIMES AS WELL AS ANOTHER LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP EXPRESSING THIS ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT MY SENSOR WAS BAD SO IT WAS REPLACED AND THE CODES WERE ERASED FROM THE SYSTEM. THIS ISSUE STILL HAPPENS AFTER THAT REPAIR. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY SERVICE ADVISORS THAT IT'S BECAUSE THE SENSOR IS DIRTY OR IT'S SOMETHING THAT JUST HAPPENS. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER REPAIR WHO STATE THEY ARE WILLING TO WORK WITH ME BUT THEY ONLY KEEP MY CAR FOR A FEW HOURS OR A DAY AND HAVE A TECHNICIAN DRIVE IT TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE WITH NO SUCCESS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT IF THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE THEN THERE IS NO REPAIR FOR IT. I UNDERSTANDT THAT BUT, I AM SCARED THAT IT IS GOING TO ACTUALLY ACTIVATE WHILE I AM TRAVELING TO AND FROM WORK ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS AT HIGH RATES OF SPEED. MY "I THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE BASED OF SAFETY FEATURES VEHICLE" DOES NOT FEEL SO SAFE ANYMORE. I WILL NOT LET ANYONE RIDE IN THE VEHICLE ME OUT OF FEAR THAT I MAY CAUSE THEM HARM WITH THIS ISSUE.

MY NISSAN ROGUE TAIL GATE AND WINDOW ARE LEAKING AND MY CAR NOW IS SOURED, MILDEWED, AND SMELLS LIKE SOMETHING HAS DIED. I NEED THIS TO BE FIXED PLEASE, IT IS STARTING TO MAKE ME SICK WHEN I HAVE TO GO ANYWHERE. IT SEEMS TO GET WORSE DAY BY DAY AND IT DOESN'T MATTER IF IT IS MOVING OR SITTING STILL. FROM WHAT I CAN TELL IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I FIRST BOUGHT IT, NOV. 2016, BUT IT HAS BEEN CONSTANTLY RAINING SO IT HASN'T HAD THE CHANCE TO DRY. I BELIEVE THIS IS WHY IT IS JUST NOW STARTING TO SMELL SO BAD. PLEASE HELP WITH THIS ISSUE.

THE CAR HAS IDLING ISSUES AND ISSUES WITH HARD VIBRATIONS IN THE FRONT AREA OF THE VEHICLE. THE RPM'S WERE ADJUSTED BUT THIS DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE AND I WAS TOLD IT IS THE WAY THE MOTOR SITS EVEN THOUGH IT WAS NOT HAVING THIS ISSUE WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN MARCH OF 2018. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR MOVING OR IF I AM TURNING OR WHERE I AM DRIVING. THIS ISSUE PERSISTS.
Air bags, Structure, Dec 20, 2018, crash
LAST YEAR I WAS REARENDED WHILE WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN AND MY AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOY. THE IMPACT OF THE ACCIDENT WAS HARD ENOUGH THAT MY L-5 VERTEBRAE WAS BROKEN AND DISPLACED A CENTIMETER AWAY FROM SEVERING MY SPINAL CORD. IT DIDN'T OCCUR TO ME UNTIL MY DEPOSITION AND THE LAWYERS WERE ASKING ME WHY THE AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOY THAT THERE COULD BE A PROBLEM. I WAS SITTING STATIONARY ON HWY 80 E IN STATESBORO GEORGIA WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN INTO BABCOCK AND MORE HOME FURNISHINGS WHEN I WAS STRUCK FROM BEHIND. THERE IS NO TURN LANE IT'S A 4 LANE HIGHWAY AND I WAS IN THE LEFT LANE WITH MY TURN SIGNAL IN.

WHILE ENTERING A LEFT TURN LANE (UNSURE OF SPEED AS WAS SLOWING FOR THE RED LIGHT), VEHICLE BUMPED A CURB ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. DID NOT GO OVER IT, BRUSHED AGAINST IT. NO BODY DAMAGE EXCEPT SOME SCRAPING ON THE RIMS OF THE WHEELS. THE TIRES REMAINED INFLATED. HOWEVER, THE SENSOR DETECTED IT AS A SIDE IMPACT, AND DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAGS (NOT THE STEERING WHEEL, JUST THE SIDE) DEPLOYED, INJURING AND DISORIENTING THE DRIVER. VEHICLE WAS UNDER CONTROL, AND DRIVER WAS IN NO DANGER UNTIL AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. WAS TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY ASSERTED THAT THE SENSOR ACTED PROPERLY AS THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A ROLL OVER (THEN SHOULDN'T ALL OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED?). THE SENSOR IS WAY TOO SENSITIVE AND DANGEROUS AS I WAS SEVERELY DISORIENTED (AND MAY HAVE BRIEFLY LOST CONSCIOUSNESS) FROM THE AIRBAGS AND AM LUCKY THAT I OR SOMEONE ELSE WAS NOT MORE SERIOUSLY INJURED. FOLLOWING THE INCIDENT, THE INSURANCE AGENT, THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER, ETC. WERE SHOCKED THAT THE AIRBAGS HAD DEPLOYED IN THIS SITUATION. BRUSHING CURBS IS WELL WITHIN THE NORMAL PARAMETERS OF DRIVING AND SHOULD NOT HAVE CAUSED THE AIRBAGS TO GO OFF.

THE AIRBAGS ON MY 2016 NISSAN ROGUE NEVER DEPLOYED. I WAS DRIVING 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I HAD A SNEEZING SPELL. MY EYES CLOSED AND MY ARM JERKED THE WHEEL DURING THE SPELL. MY CAR TURNED INTO THE BREAKDOWN LANE OFF THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. IT HAPPENED SO FAST THAT I NEVER EVEN APPLIED THE BRAKES. MY CAR PLOWED THROUGH THE THICK WOODS AND TREES FOR OVER 500FT AT FULL HIGHWAY SPEED.. FINALLY COMING TO REST AFTER MAKING HEAD ON CONTACT WITH A BIG TREE. WHEN MY CAR WAS BEING TOWED OUT OF WOODS, THE TOW TUCK DRIVER FOUND THE AIRBAG SENSOR BROKEN OFF UNDERNEATH THE CAR. I HAVE INCLUDED SEVERAL PICS FROM THE ACCIDENT SCENE AND FROM THE TOW YARD WHERE MY CAR WAS BROUGHT. YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THE DAMAGE TO THE CAR FROM THE FORCE OF THE IMPACT. THE RESULTING DAMAGE RESULTED IN THE CAR BEING A TOTAL LOSS WITH INSURANCE COMPANY . PICTURES SHOWING THE INSIDE OF THE CAR REFLECT THE FACT NO AIRBAGS EVER WENT OFF. I ALSO INCLUDED A PICTURE SHOWING THE BROKEN OFF SENSOR SITTING ON MY HOOD. BY THE GRACE OF GOD I WAS NOT SERIOUSLY HURT IN THE CRASH. BUT I AND REPORTING THE CRASH BECAUSE THE NEXT PERSON MAY NOT BE SO LUCKY. THERE CLEARLY IN A DESIGN FLAW. YOU WOULD THINK IF THE SENSOR BRAKES OFF, THAT WOULD AUTOMATICALLY RELEASE THE AIRBAGS. CLEARLY NOT THE CASE IN MY ACCIDENT.

CAR ONLY HAS 63,000 MILES ON IT AND THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND SENSOR IN MY CAR WENT OUT AND MY CAR WAS PROPERLY MAINTENANCE LIKE IT SUPPOSE TOO. BUT BEFORE THEN A SENSOR WENT OUT ON MY CAR , I NEVER HEARD OF A MANIFOLD GOING OUT EARLY ON ANY VEHICLE FROM ANY MAKER NOT THIS EARLY AND I FELT WHEN I BOUGHT THIS CAR IT WAS ALREADY DEFECTED. IN GOOD FAITH, I WOULD THINK THE DEALER WOULD HAVE CHECK IT OUT BEFORE I BOUGHT IT, APPARENTLY NOT. I BOUGHT THIS CAR ON NOVEMBER 11 AND NOW I'M EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS !

WITHOUT WARNING, THE ENGINE IN MY CAR INTERMITTENTLY SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THE CAR LOSES POWER TO THE STEERING WHEEL AND BREAKS. BECAUSE THE CAR IS IN MOTION WHEN THIS OCCURS, I CANNOT PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTART IT. I HAVE TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND TURN THE KEY TO RESTART IT. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO OCCUR WHEN DRIVING THE CAR FOR LONGER DISTANCES, ALTHOUGH NOT ON THE HIGHWAY. USE OF THE AIR CONDITIONER OR HEAT SEEM TO MAKE THE ISSUE WORSE. I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASH ONCE PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING. THE BATTERY IS STILL ON, SO THE RADIO IS STILL OPERATIONAL, AS ARE ALL OF THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS. I OFTEN DON'T KNOW THAT THE ENGINE HAS SHUT OFF UNTIL I TRY TO ACCELERATE OR BREAK AND AM UNABLE TO DO SO. IT IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE. I HAVE ALMOST CAUSED MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR A 5 POINT INSPECTION AND TO HAVE THEM DRIVE THE VEHICLE. I WAS TURNED AWAY AND THEY ADVISED THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE.
