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.

Back over prevention, sensing system, cameraSep 12, 2019
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Nissan Altima, Armada, Frontier, Kicks, Leaf, Maxima, Murano, NV, NV200, Pathfinder, Rogue, Rogue Sport, Sentra, Titan, Titan Diesel, Versa Note and Versa Sedan vehicles, as well as Infiniti Q50, Q60, QX30 and QX80 vehicles. Additionally included are 2019 Nissan GT-R and Taxi and Infiniti QX50, QX60, Q70, Q70L vehicles. The back-up camera and display settings can be adjusted such that the rear view image is no longer visible and the system will retain that setting the next time the vehicle is placed in reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 111, "Rear Visibility."
The lack of an image in the back-up camera display increases the risk of a crash.
Nissan will notify owners in phases, having dealers update the back-up camera settings software, free of charge. The recall began November 11, 2019 and all affected VINs should be activated. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669 or INFINITI customer service at 1-800-662-6200.

Representative owner complaints: air bags

Air bags, May 30, 2019
THIS IS NOT ABOUT AN ACCIDENT. THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG IN THIS CAR DOES NOT ALWAYS COME ON WHEN I SIT IN THE SEAT. I AM A SMALL ADULT, AROUND 94 POUNDS. THE DEALERSHIP DID ALL THEY COULD. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN MADE TO NISSAN ABOUT THIS ISSUE SINCE 2013. WHEN I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER RELATIONS I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO FOR ME. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP EXPECTED THAT THEY WOULD SEND AN ENGINEER TO FIX IT.
