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.

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.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2018 NISSAN ROGUE TO WORK ON A SUNNY FLORIDA MORNING, I EXPERIENCED A TECHNICAL ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE AROUND 8:00 AM EST. WHILE SLOWING DOWN APPLYING MY BRAKES AS I APPROACHED A MAJOR INTERSECTION WITH TRAFFIC, MY ROGUE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN ACCORD CAUSING ME TO CRASH INTO A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. DURING THE ACCELERATION, THE VEHICLE'S ONBOARD AUTOMATED EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM WAS SOUNDING ALARMS BUT DID NOT BRAKE THE VEHICLE. INSTEAD IT FELT LIKE THE VEHICLE WAS ACCELERATED INSTEAD. A LOUD GRINDING SOUND COULD BE HEARD AT THE POINT OF IMPACT WITH THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME AND FOR ABOUT A SECOND OR SO AFTERWARDS. THANKFULLY THE SPEED WAS LOW ONLY RESULTING IN MINOR BODY DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE AND NO VISIBLE DAMAGE TO THE OTHER VEHICLE.*DT *TP THE END RESULT WAS I SUSTAINED MULTIPLE BACK INJURIES - LOWER AND NECK REGIONS SIMULTANEOUSLY. I SUSPECT THIS IS DUE TO THE FACT I WENT FROM SLOWING DOWN TO SUDDEN ACCELERATION AND THEN FINALLY TO FULL SUDDEN STOP. THANKFULLY, I WAS THE ONLY PERSON IN MY VEHICLE. ALL OF THIS WAS CAUGHT ON MY DASH CAMERA INCLUDING THE SOUNDS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKING TO BILL RAY NISSAN IN LONGWOOD, FL WHICH WERE UNABLE TO PULL ANY DIAGNOSTIC CODES AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. WHEN DEPRESSING A BRAKE TO SLOW A VEHICLE DOWN, THE VEHICLE SHOULD NOT ACCELERATE BY ITSELF. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. I WILL BE GLAD TO SUBMIT A COPY OF THE DASH CAMERA FOOTAGE FOR REVIEW. *DT*JB *DT *TP*DT*TP*DT*DT CONSUMER SUBMITTED VIDEO AND TRANSCRIPT.*JB*DAD THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE.*JP THE CONSUMER STATED THE BATTERY WAS THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE BATTERY HAD A LOW VOLTAGE.

I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE 5 MONTHS AGO, WHEN I AM DRIVING PAST 40 MINUTES IT WILL BRAKE FOR NO REASON EVEN WHEN NOTHING IS IN FRONT OF ME. I TOOK IT TO AWESOME NISSAN IN BRUNSWICK, GA THEY SAID THEY FIXED THE RECALLS. ON MY WAY HOME ON THE HIGHWAY IT WAS DOING IT AGAIN AND I SPUN OUT BUT GOT BACK IN CONTROL, AND I CALLED THEM THEY SAID TO BRING IT BACK IN WHEN I DID THEY HAD MY CAR FOR 5 DAYS AND DROVE IT 14 MILES AND CALLED AND SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE. MY CAR WILL TRY TO STOP AT ANY GIVEN TIME AND IS TO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. I CALLED NISSAN THEY WILL NOT HELP ME. THIS IS GOING TO BE THE 3RD TIME I TAKE IT IN AND THIS TIME I HAVE TO PAY OVER $1,000.00 TO GET IT REPAIRED SINCE I CAN NOT FIND ANYONE WHO WILL HELP ME.

BOUGHT THIS CAR BE WITH 42 MILES ON IT. ABOUT A MONTH AFTER I BOUGHT IT THE AEB SYSTEM STARTED ACTIVATING AND SLAMMING THE BRAKES WHEN NOTHING WAS IN FRONT OF ME. I HAD NEVER HAD A CAR WITH THIS FEATURE BEFORE. I LATER GOT A NOTICE TO BRING IT IN TO A DEAL FOR AN UPDATE BEFORE THE WARRANTY WENT OUT. THE CAR IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY AND HAS BEGUN DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN. I WAS DRIVING 65 ON THE INTERSTATE WITH NO TRAFFIC OR OBSTACLES IN FRONT OF ME. THE WARNING SYSTEM WENT OFF THEN IMMEDIATELY ACTIVATES THE BRAKES SLOWING ME DOWN TO 40 MILES AN HOUR. THANKFULLY THE CAR BEHIND ME WAS ABLE TO REACT IN TIME TO SWERVE AND MISS ME. I GOT TJE ONE FINGER SALUTE FROM THE DRIVER OF THAT VEHICLE. IT IS NOW HAPPENING MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY. I WAS TOLD BY DEALER THAT SINCE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR ANOTHER UPDATE. I CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY THAT RIGHT NOW. ANYWAY THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN CORRECTED WHEN THEY DID THE FIRST UPDATE ON THE AEB SOFTWARE. PURCHASES FROM BENTON NISSAN IN BESSEMER, AL BUT HAVE HAD ALL SERVICE PERFORMED BY SIERRA NISSAN OF SYLACAUGA,AL. BUT I HAVE QUIT UTILIZING SERRA NISSA SINCE THEY PUT THE WRONG TYPE OF OIL IN MY CAR AND REFUSES TO FIX THE PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH THEY ADMITTED TO THE MISTAKE ALSO IT WAS PRINTED THE SERVIVE RECEIPT AS PROOF THAT THEY OIL THEY USES WAS INCORRECT.

I BOUGHT A USED, 1 YEAR OLD, 2018 NISSAN ROGUE, AT A FLORIDA HONDA DEALERSHIP IN MARCH OF 2019. SINCE I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE IT HAS SLAMMED ON THE BREAKS SEVERAL TIMES, WHILE DRIVING ANYWHERE FROM 50-80 MPH, FOR NO APPARENT REASON. JUST IN THE LAST WEEK IT HAS SLAMMED ON THE BREAKS 2X FOR NO REASON. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS CLOSE TO THE BACK END OF MY CAR OR THEY WOULD HAVE HIT ME. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR. I HAVE READ MANY REPORTS RECENTLY THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THIS CAR YET NISSAN WILL NOT DO A RECALL ON IT. I WILL OWN THIS LEMON FOR 6 YEARS IF NOTHING IS DONE ABOUT IT.

I WAS PULLING INTO MY GARAGE A FEW DAYS AGO AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE SYSTEM ENGAGED. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN FRONT OF ME WHEN THIS HAPPENED. AGAIN TODAY, I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE CITY ROAD GOING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH AND THE CAR IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THE WARNING FLASHED, CAR BEEPED AND JUST STOPPED FOR NO REASON AT ALL. NOTHING IN FRONT AND THANKFULLY NO CARS BEHIND ME. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND SCARY! THANK GOODNESS I WAS NOT IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS ISSUE.

ABRUPT AUTOMATIC UNWARRANTED BRAKING OCCURRED IN TWO INCIDENTS WHILE TRAVELLING ON BOULEVARD. WEATHER WAS CLEAR, THERE WERE NO VEHICLES IN FRONT (AND FORTUNATELY NONE BEHIND) WHEN THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED. DID NOT BRING VEHICLE TO COMPLETE STOP BUT THE BRAKES WERE AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED AND ABRUPT SLOWING DOWN OF VEHICLE OCCURRED. THIS BRAKING SYSTEM DID WORK PROPERLY IN AT LEAST TWO OTHER CONDITIONS - IE DRIVING INTO INTERIOR HOME GARAGE. UNEXPECTED AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING WHILE DRIVING WITH NO OBVIOUS OBSTACLES (IE VEHICLES, ROAD DEBRIS) IS DANGEROUS.

Other or unspecified, Service brakes, Dec 22, 2019
WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION DRIVING STRAIGHT AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MILES PER HOUR, AT 7:52AM ON UNIVERSITY BLVD AT HIGHWAY 75, THE AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED FOR NO REASON CAUSING THE VEHICLES BRAKES TO INAPPROPRIATELY ENGAGE.

AUTOMATIC FRONT BRAKING (AFB) SYSTEM CONTINUES TO INAPPROPRIATELY ENGAGE EVEN AFTER RECALL UPDATES WERE COMPLETED AT A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. WHEN DRIVING THE CAR WILL, WITHOUT JUSTIFICATION (IE THERE ARE NO OBSTICALS IN FRONT OF CAR) AUTOMATICALLY APPLY THE BREAKS. AFTER THE UPDATE IT HAPPENED TO ME WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN, MY TODDLER WAS IN THE CAR, LUCKILY I DID NOT LOSE CONTROL OF THE CAR. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND NISSAN HAS FAILED TO CORRECT IT. NISSAN SAID AFB CANNOT BE PERMANENTLY DISABLED AND SAID IT IS NOW DRIVER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO MANUALLY TURN IT OFF EACH TIME THE CAR IS STARTED.

AT RANDOM TIMES THE 'AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING' SYSTEM AUTOMATICALLY SLAMS ON BRAKES. THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN AT ABOUT 35-40 MPH ON A CITY/COUNTY ROAD. WE WERE DRIVING STRAIGHT, IT WAS DARK WITH NO STREET LIGHTS AND NO OTHER CARS OR OBJECTS ON THE ROAD. IT SLAMS ON THE BAKES SO FAST THAT THE CAR ALMOST DIES AND TURNS OFF. NISSAN RECENTLY SENT US A LETTER TELLING US TO COME IN FOR AN 'UPDATE'. THIS IS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND WILL LIKELY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED TO US AT LEAST 4 TIMES IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS.

WHILE DRIVING ON A SUNNY DAY ON A CITY STREET MY CAR SUDDENLY SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES WHILE DRIVING UNDER A HIGHWAY OVERPASS. IT DID THIS ON IT'S OWN IN CLEAR WEATHER WHILE IN MOTION. IT APPEARED THE CAR REACTED ON IT'S OWN TO THE SHADOW OF THE HIGHWAY I WAS ABOUT TO DRIVE UNDER. THERE WAS NO CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND I IN FACT WAS ABOUT TO ACCELERATE TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AFTER GOING UNDER THE OVERPASS. THE CAR BRAKES SUDDENLY WHEN GOING INTO THE SHADOW OF THE OVERPASS. IT STARTLED ME AND MY AUTOMATIC REACTION WAS TO SWITCH MY FOOT TO THE BRAKE AND WHEN I DID I COULD FEEL THE BRAKE WAS ALREADY DEPRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THE CAR BRIEFLY STOPPED AND THEN THE BRAKE LET UP AND I THEN COULD CONTINUE DRIVING A COUPLE SECONDS LATER. IT WAS SCARY AND DANGEROUS. SOMEONE COULD'VE BEEN BEHIND ME AND HIT ME. I WAS RATTLED FOR 30 MINUTES AFTERWARD. I AM UNSURE OF THE EXACT DATE THIS OCCURRED BUT I GAVE THE BEST ESTIMATE I COULD DOWN BELOW.

MY VEHICLE'S EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM ACTIVATES WHILE DRIVING WHEN THERE ARE NO OTHER CARS IN FRONT OF MY VEHICLE. THE WARNING SOUND WILL ALARM AND THEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED AT FULL FORCE, WHICH CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO COME TO A SCREECHING HALT. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES (PART WAS REPLACED ONCE, SYSTEM HAS BEEN REPROGRAMMED TWICE), AND THE ISSUE IS STILL ONGOING.
