Recall 23V093000 — ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:ANTI-THEFT:IMMOBILIZER/PROXIMITY:KEY/SENDER
| 712,458 vehicles affected
Defect: 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: 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,...

Most Recent Complaints
The transmission failed on my 2019 Nissan Rogue Sport. I was driving down the road and my car started to jerk and go faster and then slower while I was driving down the road at 55 miles per hour. I could not control the speed or the smoothness of the car operation. I had no warning light or any indication that this was about to happen. The warning light came on much later when I was at home. This is a problem that Nissan is well aware of and has done nothing to inform customers or mitigate the damage (in my case $6,599.40). There are many class-action lawsuits, but the one covering this car has already ended as on January 1, 2029. This problem tends to occur at about 80,000 miles, so I am maintaining that Nissan should reimburse me (my car had about 76,000 miles at the time). By cutting off the class-action lawsuit in 2020, no 2019 cars would have 80,000 miles on them. There is a class action lawsuit for another model that runs from 2014 to 2018, so they can honor requests on this model as well.

Radiator cooling fan failed at 43,819 miles. Cost to repair was $554.95. Web search revealed that many others are experiencing this failure at ~40K miles on the Nissan Rogue Sport models. It seems like it should be a recall/reimbursement issue.
Started with loud squeaky sounds when going over bump, accelerating, stopping. Also, seems to move slightly when stopping. DRIVER SEAT FAILURE. Nissan Service Dept says the seat frame has failed and this is a safety issue.
On the fourth transmission with a Carvana car. It’s dangerous to drive. I can’t go more than 65 and I drive 200 miles a week. It just had its left front axel done and now today it is the right front axel. Carvana offered me a 500 credit.
