TOOK MY NISSAN TO MECHANIC AND HE TOLD ME THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS BAD AND I'VE JUST HAD THE CAR FOR LESS THAN 2 YEARS . I BOUGHT IT AND IT HAD 82,000 AND NOW AT 116,000 THE TRANSMISSION IS ALREADY BAD, THAT IS NOT RIGHT AT ALL. I BOUGHT THIS CAR THINKING I WOULDN'T HAVE NOTHING BUT REGULAR MAINTENANCE TO DO IN IT NOT A FREAKING $3000 TO $4000 MAYBE MORE TO PUT INTO IT. MY GOD I PAYED A LOT FOR THIS CAR AND NOW THE TRANSMISSION IS OUT OF IT . THAT'S UNCALLED FOR. NISSAN NEEDS TO STEP UP AND TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM . WHEN I GET IN THE CAR AND START IT UP IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY LOUD SOUNDS THEN WHEN YOU PUT IT IN DRIVE AND ACCELERATE IT MAKES A LOUD ROARING SOUND. AS YOU ACCELERATE IT GETS LOUDER. I'M SO DISGUSTED WITH NISSAN . I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN IN MY LIFETIME

AFTER A FEW SECOND THE A/C TURNED OFF AND THEN TURNED BACK ON. ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS IT DOESN'T DETECT THE KEY IN THE FOB. I HAVE CHANGED OUT THE BATTERY IN MY KEY FOB, I HAD IT LOOKED OVER BY 2 MECHANICS AND MY BATTERY AND START AND ENGINE LOOK GOOD AND ARE IN GOOD CONDITION. IT HAPPENED EVERY TIME AND MY CAR TURNED OFF WHILE I WAS PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND QUICKLY TURNED BACK ON.

OUR 2015 ROGUE HAS BEEN CONSISTENTLY MAINTAINED BY THE SAME NISSAN DEALERSHIP SINCE OUR FAMILY PURCHASED IT. IN JUNE 2020 THE AIR BAG DASH LIGHT CAME ON. IT BLINKS WHILE STATIONARY AND WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO OUR DEALERSHIP AND HAD SOME TESTS DONE, AND ON THE ADVICE OF THE TECHNICIANS REPLACED A PART (STEP ONE IN THE REPAIR PROCESS). THIS DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE, AS THE LIGHT CONTINUED TO BLINK, BUT GAVE NO ERROR CODES. WE WERE ADVISED THAT THE AIR BAG MAY NOT FUNCTION CORRECTLY, AND DRIVING THE VEHICLE MAY NOT BE SAFE. I CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS ON JUNE 19. I WAS ASSIGNED A REPRESENTATIVE WHO ASSURED ME SHE WOULD WORK WITH ME TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I WAS GIVEN A CASE NUMBER, AND MY DEALERSHIP STARTED COMMUNICATION WITH NISSAN TECHLINE. THEY HAD SOME RECOMMENDATIONS, BUT NO SOLUTIONS. THE MOSTLY LIKELY ISSUE IN THEIR ESTIMATION IS A FAULTY OCS. I FORWARDED THE TECHLINE RECOMMENDATION TO MY REPRESENTATIVE, BUT SHE HAD NOT RESPONDED TO NUMEROUS CONTACT ATTEMPTS. THE DEALERSHIP TRIED ALMOST DAILY TO CONNECT WITH HER DEPARTMENT, BUT ALSO RECEIVED NO REPLY. THE FAULTY OCS APPEARS TO A COMMON PROBLEM WITH NISSAN VEHICLES, AND WAS CAUSE FOR AT LEAST 3 RECALLS. AFTER CHECKING MY VIN, NO ACTIVE RECALLS ARE APPARENT, BUT THIS IS AN IMPORTANT HEALTH AND SAFETY ISSUE THAT MUST BE ADDRESSED.

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
Consequence: Corrosion of one or both of the rear lift gate support stays could cause a sudden release of pressure. If this occurs, the support stays may break off, increasing the risk of injury.
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.
Nov 20, 2015
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
Consequence: A door that does not fully latch may result in the door opening while the car is moving. The distraction may increase the risk of a crash and/or a vehicle occupant may fall out of the vehicle if they are not wearing a seatbelt, increasing their risk of injury.
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.

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.
