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.

AS I WAS TRAVELLING ON A MAJOR FREEWAY, MY BRAND NEW 2016 NISSAN ROGUE BEGAN TO FEEL LIKE IT WAS "JUMPING." AT THAT POINT I NOTICED MY RPMS WERE HIGH FOR THE SPEED I WAS GOING. NOT EVEN 30 SECONDS AFTER, MY CAR COMPLETELY STALLED. I WAS IN THE FAST LANE OF THE FREEWAY AND BARELY HAD TIME TO REACT. I ENDED UP STUCK ON THE MEDIAN OF THE FREEWAY. I ENDED UP HAVING THE CAR TAKEN TO THE DEALER DOWN THE ROAD. THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. I REFUSED TO DRIVE IT AND BEGAN SEEKING FURTHER HELP THROUGH NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS. AFTER NEARLY A MONTH, AN ENGINEER FROM NISSAN TOOK 5 MINUTES TO LOOK AT IT AND NOTICED THE TRANSMISSION WAS SLIPPING. THE PREVIOUS WEEK BEFORE THIS MAJOR INCIDENT, THE CAR IS STALLED A FEW BLOCKS FROM MY HOME ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET AFTER ACCELERATING FROM A COMPLETE STOP. THE DEALERSHIP HAD TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AND IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. NOW HERE WE ARE 2 MONTHS LATER, AND IT FEELS AS IF THE TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AGAIN.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE IT CUT OFF AND A GOT A MESSAGE STATING TO CHECK THE CHASSIS CONTROL SYSTEM ERROR. IT WAS TAKEN TO DEALER ON FRIDAY DECEMBER 29, INITIALLY THEY SAID AFTER RUNNING NUMEROUS TEST THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG SO THEY GAVE ME THE KEYS AND AS SOON AS I DROVE OFF IT DID AGAIN, I IMMEDIATELY WENT BACK AND THEY WERE ABLE TO SEE THE MESSAGE . THEY KEPT THE VEHICLE AND CALLED ME TO INFORM ME THAT THEY WOULD BE PUTTING A NEW CONTROLLER IN THE VEHICLE. ON TUESDAY JAN 2 I WAS TOLD MY CAR WAS READY, I PICKED IT UP DROVE HOME WITH NO PROBLEM. ON JAN 3 I DROVE TO AND FROM WORK WITH NO PROBLEM. AT APPROXIMATELY 700 AS I WAS GETTING READY TO GO TO CHURCH I TURNED THE CAR ON THEN ALL OF SUDDEN THE LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING AND IT WOULDN'T MOVE OR TURN OFF, I ALSO GOT THE MESSSGE AGAIN. MY BOYFRIEND DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY SO THAT I WOULD BE ABLE TO TURN THE CAR OFF. TOMORROW JAN 4 I WILL BE GETTING IT TOWED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP .
Suspension, Dec 18, 2017
I KEPT HEARING A LOUD CLICKING OR POPPING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE CAR WHEN TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT TO MANEUVER IN AND OUT OF PARKING SPACES. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER ONLY TO BE TOLD IT WAS A BENT PIECE OF METAL BY A ROTOR. I DROVE THE CAR FROM THE DEALER STILL HEARING THE POPPING NOISE. I CALLED NISSAN USA AND GOT A CASE NUMBER. THE NOISE GOT LOUDER SO I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER ON 12/16/17. THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS THE ENTIRE FRONT SUSPENSION THAT HAD TO BE REPLACED. MILES ON THE CAR ARE APPROXIMATELY 24,000 AND COVERED UNDER THE 36,000-MILE WARRANTY. I AM GLAD THE CAR IS FIXED BUT I AM CONCERNED THAT A $35,000 VEHICLE IS REQUIRING SUCH MAJOR WORK WHEN ONLY A YEAR AND A HALF OLD.

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH ON A CITY STREET JUST STARTING TO MOVE FORWARD FROM BEING STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT, THE REAR WINDOW SUDDENLY SHATTERED. THE MILEAGE WAS SLIGHTLY OVER 19,000 MILES. THE CAR IS 23 MONTHS IN TO A 36 MONTH LEASE. NOTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY WAS HAPPENING THAT DAY, CLEAR SKIES AND 50 DEGREES. NISSAN CLAIMS SINCE IT ISN'T A "MANUFACTURERS RECALL" ITEM IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER FULL WARRANTY. SINCE IT IS A LEASE, I MUST USE NISSAN CLASS WHICH IS ALMOST 3 TIMES AS EXPENSIVE AS GLASS FROM A THIRD PARTY. TO TOP IT OFF, I HAVE DRIVING IN A RENTAL CAR FROM THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE LAST 7 DAYS AT $35 PER DAY. NISSAN FINALLY CALLED ME BACK (7 DAYS LATER).
Structure, Nov 16, 2017
EVERYTHING IN THE VEHICLE SHAKES VIOLENTLY. THE SEATS AND THE HOOD MOST NOTICEABLY SHAKE. I'VE STOPPED BEFORE TO CHECK THAT IT WAS LATCHED OUT OF FEAR OF THE HOOD OPENING WHILE I'M DRIVING. THE SHAKING IS NOT AS BAD WHEN THE TIRES ARE ROTATED BUT IT EVENTUALLY RETURNS WITHIN A FEW WEEKS. IT HAS DONE THIS SINCE I PURCHASED IT. THE CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 23,000 MILES ON IT.
Other or unspecified, Nov 16, 2017
THE NISSAN ROGUE HAS A VIBRATION ON THE LEFT SIDE. CAN BE FELT WHEN HOLDING THE STEERING WHEEL. BROUGHT THIS TO THE ATTENTION AT THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES MORE THAN A YEAR AGO. LAST TIME THEY SAID THERE WILL BE A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE AS MY VEHICLE IS AFFECTED. AFTER CHECKING W/DEALERSHIP A FEW MORE TIMES, THERE IS STILL NO NEWS OF GETTING THIS RESOLVED. THIS HAPPENS WHILE I'M DRIVING AND IT MAKES ME NAUSEOUS.

AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, I HEARD A LOUD POP, LIKE A GUNSHOT AND SUDDENLY THE GLASS FROM MY SUNROOF WAS FALLING ON ME. I HAD A HOLE IN THE SUNROOF AND THE GLASS WAS FALLING ON ME WHILE DRIVING. NOTHING HIT MY CAR, IT JUST EXPLODED RANDOMLY- I HAD NO IDEA WHAT HAPPENED. I CALLED 911, POLICE CAME,AND LATER HAD THE SUNROOF REPLACED

A/C LINE INSTALLED DIRECTLY ABOVE ALTERNATOR. ON EXTENDED DRIVING TRIPS WITH A/C OPERATING AT MAXIMUM, CONDENSATION/MOISTURE ATTACHED TO LINE DRIPS FROM LINE ONTO ALTERNATOR CAUSING BATTERY LIGHT ON DASHBOARD TO FLICKER MOMENTARY. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS PERIODICALLY AND THE DEALER/NISSAN IS NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THE MALFUNCTION BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE WHEN TECHNICIAN RUNS A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. I INSTALLED INSULATION BOUGHT AT LOWE'S AND THE PROBLEM CEASED TO OCCUR. I THEN REMOVED THE INSULATION AND THE MALFUNCTION OCCURRED AGAIN (REPEATEDLY). I REINSTALLED INSULATION AND MALFUNCTION CEASED. TAKING THAT ACTION AND THE RESULT IS EVIDENCE THAT THE PROBLEM IS A DESIGN FLAW. I REQUESTED THAT NISSAN INSTALL PREFABRICATED INSULATION AS SEEN ON THE 2006 HONDA CRV WHICH HAS THE SAME A/C LINE CONFIGURATION, INSTALLED ABOVE THE ALTERNATOR. THAT IS TO PREVENT ALTERNATOR BEING RENDERED INOPERATIVE FROM CONSTANT MOISTURE INFUSION.

WE PURCHASED OUT 2016 NISSAN ROGUE IN FEBRUARY OF 2017. IT ONLY HAS ~14K MILES ON IT AND THE ROTORS HAVE ALREADY WARPED. WE TOOK IT TO GAINESVILLE NISSAN AND ALL THEY DID WAS TURN THE ROTORS AND STATE THAT NISSAN DOES NOT CONSIDER THE ESSENTIALLY NEW ROTORS TO BE FAULTY. THE WEBSTER'S DICTIONARY DEFINITION OF FAULTY IS AS FOLLOWS: MARKED BY FAULT OR DEFECT :IMPERFECT. THE ROTORS ARE ESSENTIALLY NEW AND TURNING THEM VERY MUCH LIMITS THE LIFETIME OF THE PART. THE ROTORS AND PADS SHOULD BE REPLACED TO MAKE SURE WE ARE SAFE. THERE IS NO REASON FOR THESE LOW MILEAGE ROTORS TO HAVE WARPED. HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE IN THIS SITUATION?

5,000 MILES. WHEN YOU TURN STEERING WHEEL I FEEL VIBRATIONS AT MY FEET THAT CORRESPOND TO THE DIRECT ACTION OF THE TURNING WHEEL. THIS HAPPENS DRIVING AND STILL. CAR HAS BEEN TO DEALOR 4 TIMES, AND WAS INSPECTED BY NISSAN CORPORATE. AT THE TIME CORPORATE CHECKED VEHICLE IT WAS NOT MAKING THE COMPLAINT. THEY REPLACED SOME PARTS - BOOT PREVIOUSLY WHICH ONLY FIXED FOR A FEW WEEKS. THE FEELING IS ESPECIALLY DETECTABLE WHERE YOU WOULD NORMALLY PUT YOUR LEFT FOOT. DRIVING STRAIGHT DOES NOT MAKE THE FEELING HAPPEN.

WE HAVE HAD 2 PARKING LOT FENDER BENDERS WITHIN 3 MONTHS DUE TO THE FACT THAT NISSAN'S REAR VIEW MONITORING SYSTEM'S USE OF A BACKUP CAMERA IS SO COMPLICATED TO USE AND ITS BLIND SPOT MONITORING DOES NOT FUNCTION UNDER 20 MILES PER HOUR SPEED THAT I DON'T THINK THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN APPROVED AS A FEATURE ON THIS CAR. ADDITIONALLY, THE INTERIOR BACK SEAT HEADRESTS BLOCK ALL WINDOWS THAT WOULD NORMALLY BE USED FOR VISUAL SEARCHING. AS A BUYER, I WAS NOT WARNED THAT THE SYSTEM HAS A VERY MINIMAL USE. IT TOOK TWO ACCIDENTS BEFORE I FOUND ITS LIMITATIONS BURIED IN THE MANUAL. THE SYSTEM IS VERY DANGEROUS SINCE MARKETING IMPLIES THAT IT PROTECTS FROM BACKING UP WHEN IT DOES NOT. IN THE MANUAL SMALL PRINT IT LISTS SO NINE TIMES WHEN IT WILL NOT WORK. COMPARED TO OTHER CARS SUCH AS LEXUS, THIS NISSAN 'SAFETY' FEATURE IS ACTUALLY A DANGER TO ANY DRIVER.
