NHTSA Complaint #11553166 — 2015 NISSAN ROGUE

As part of NHTSA Campaign Number 23V093000, Nissan provided an interim remedy by inserting a fastener into the key slot of the jackknife key on July 21, 2023. After this interim remedy, key blade could not be folded back into the key fob. Another notice was received from Nissan recently which stated that they have a permanent remedy for this which is to insert a spacer into the key slot. As with the interim remedy, the permanent remedy will also prevent the key blade from being folded back into the key fob. In addition, the letter from Nissan states that any keys that are not repaired will be deactivated. Carrying a key with an open key blade in the pant pocket is causing skin irritation and there is a possibility of injury as well. If I decide to get the keys repaired as required by Nissan, then it I have to deal with the skin irritation and possibility of injury. If I decide to not get the keys repaired, then Nissan will deactivate my keys effectively locking me out of own car that is fully paid off.
