ISSUE WITH THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT ON A 2015 NISSAN ROGUE. THE ISSUE IS THAT A FULL-SIZE ADULT (150 AND 240 POUNDS) CAN BE IN THE SEAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INDICATOR INDICATES THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG IS OFF. THERE IS NO AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND THE COMPUTER AND AIRBAG SYSTEM HAS BEEN FLASHED, BUT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. SINCE THEN THE DEALSHIP HAS PUSHED ME OFF, EVEN WITH PHOTOS AND EVIDENCE OF THIS HAPPENING. I HAVE THREATEN THEM WITH A LAWSUIT BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT LOOK FURTHER IN TO IT, IF THE AIRBAG DOES NOT DEPLOY WHEN A FULL-SIZE ADULT IS IN THE SEAT. I WILL BE TAKING THE VEHICLE TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP THIS WEEK, BECAUSE THIS ISSUE IS CONTINUE TO HAPPEN. I AM CURRENTLY AN PURSUING AN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING DEGREE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA AND WILL CONTINUE TO USE THEIR RESOURCES TO I FIND SOMEONE WHO WILL RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THE ONLY RESOLUTION FOR THIS ISSUE, WHEN IT HAPPENS, IS TO PARK THE CAR AND TURN IT OFF, LET IT SIT, AND TURN THE CAR BACK ON TO SEE IF THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON OR NOT. THE CAR HAS CURRENTLY 43,068 MILES AND IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. ALSO ALL RECALLS AND MAINTENANCE IS COMPLETED AT A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. I'VE ALSO HAD ISSUES WITH SEAT BELT LIGHT IN THE DASH SAYS THAT SOMEONE IS UN-BUCKLED WHILE EVERYONE IN THE VEHICLE IS ACTUALLY BUCCKLED, AND HAS BEEN BUCKLED.

Official recalls
9Feb 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.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: 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.
Remedy: 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.
Jan 21, 2022
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2014-2016 Rogue vehicles. The electrical connector for the under dash harness may corrode due to water and salt intrusion from the driver's side foot well.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: Corrosion in the electrical connector can result in power window/seat failure, all-wheel-drive warning light illumination, battery drainage, and electrical connector damage that increases the risk of a fire.
Remedy: Dealers will remove the harness tape and harness covering and replace both connectors and apply white lithium grease to the connectors as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 23, 2022. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall is R21B9.

An incorrect Occupant Classification System (OCS) Electronic Control Unit (ECU) may have been installed in the front passenger seat. The incorrect ECU and seat combination may misclassify the front passenger seat occupant.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the front passenger seat occupant is misclassified, the air bag may deploy incorrectly in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ECU and update the OCS software free of charge. The recall began February 13, 2017. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied. As a result, the passenger frontal air bag may be turned off and not deploy in the event of a crash.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the passenger frontal air bag does not deploy as intended in the event of a crash, the passenger is at an increased risk of injury.
Remedy: Nissan will notify their owners. Chevrolet City Express owners will be notified by General Motors. Dealers will reprogram the Air Bag Control Unit (ACU) and OCS Electronic Control Unit (ECU) in Altima, Maxima, Murano, Rogue, and Sentra vehicles, and replace the OCS ECU in LEAF, NV200, NV200 Taxi, Pathfinder, Infiniti Q50, JX35, and QX60 and Chevrolet City Express vehicles, free of charge.

Consequence & remedy

Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rear tailgate stays, free of charge. The recall began on November 18, 2016. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2015 Rogue vehicles manufactured February 10, 2015, to May 13, 2015. In the affected vehicles, due to a problem with the shift selector knob, it may be possible to shift out of the "Park" position without depressing the brake pedal. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 114, "Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the shift selector can be moved out of the "Park" position while the brake pedal is not depressed, the vehicle may unexpectedly roll, increasing the risk of a crash.

In the affected vehicles, the driver side front and rear doors may not fully latch. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 206, "Door Locks and Door Retention Components."
Consequence & remedy

Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the date, lot number, and cavity code on the left front and rear door latches, and replace them, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on August 31, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2015 Rogue Select vehicles manufactured November 17, 2014, to December 12, 2014 and equipped with seventeen-inch wheels. The affected vehicles have incorrect tire size information on the tire labels. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 110, "Tire Selection and Rims and Motor Home/Recreation Vehicle Trailer Load Carrying Capacity Information for Motor Vehicles with a GVWR of 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds) or less."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: The labels list the incorrect tire size. Installing tires of the incorrect size may increase the risk of a crash.

Jan 14, 2015

During the assembly process, the front wheel hub assembly fasteners may not have been properly torqued.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: The under-torqued fasteners may result in a brake caliper separating from the wheel assembly causing a reduction in braking performance or reduced steering control. These conditions increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and tighten any loose bolts to the proper specification, free of charge. The recall began February 2, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.
