Rogue

  • 50,000 miles
Steering felt funny and would not stay in line. This was noticed by multiple drivers. Took the vehicle in to sutherlin Nissan of fort myers, they diagnosed it as a broken steering column and replaced it. During replacement customer was informed that a screw was loose on the airbag and needed to be replaced. The vehicle has 50 xxx miles on it and has only been driven on Florida roads. Customer primarily uses back and forth in town on short trips < 15 miles.

2015 Nissan Rogue slightly over 5 years old, less than 60K mileage. The car has never been hit or involved in accident. Airbag warning light came on. Diagnosed by Nissan dealership as replacement required at owners expense. The air bags should not be failing on a lightly used vehicle modestly over 5 years old that has never been involved in an accident. A clear safety issue.

The side curtain airbags suddenly deployed while vehicle was being driven on a straight, flat road. The police were called but unable to make a report because there was no collision or damage. The air bags were cut off for visibility so the car could be driven home.

Rogue

  • 111,002 miles
During vehicle inspection, Nissan dealership diagnosed problem with flashing passenger side airbag. Technician found dtc P1564, B0001, B0002 and recommended replacing airbag module and spiral cable. During multiple conversations with Nissan Consumer Affairs, manufacturer is denying responsibility for defect of factory install issue. Supervisor lindsay appeared to link lack of responsibility to drive train, as if standard is that safety is no longer a concern if vehicle 5 years old has travelled 100,000 miles despite airbag never being deployed. This is not a 'wear and tear' issue and Nissan is refusing to considered that this VIN was missed in recall announced previously. Seeking repair to be covered by Nissan and managed by local dealership. Thank you

I was driving on the freeway when my SRS light came on. It blinks on and off constantly. I am not sure if it came on and stayed on when I started the car or if it came on when I noticed it as I was driving on the freeway which would have been less than 5 minutes time.

Rogue

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.

Rogue

  • 85,300 miles
My car was in motion while driving on the interstate when I realized my car was losing power while I was trying to accelerate. My car did not come to a complete stop but it dropped from 70 mph down to 30 mph gradually. I was able to safely move my car to the side of the road and call for roadside assistance. Weeks before I noticed my RPM hand jumping erratically and when I went to get to diagnostics no one could find anything wrong with my car. I finally took it to Nissan on the day that I was driving on the interstate and I lost acceleration. I was informed by several mechanics that it was my transmission and that Nissan has an issue with transmissions and it wasn't worth the money to be replaced.

Rogue

  • 20,000 miles
Original recall performed by local dealership did not repair the problem. NHTSA recall 16V-244, OCS passenger airbag light stays on after passenger seat is occupied. This is an intermittent problem. It usually occurs when passenger sits on seat after car is started. I had it to the dealership six times in the first year after the recall. I bring it back to the dealership twice annually for inspection and oil changes. They ask if there is anything else and I tell them the passenger airbag light still stays on. I'll pick up vehicle later and they say no trouble found. I have videos (that's plural) of my wife sitting in the seat with the light on and us driving. I can send those if you want them. The last time I had it for service the service manager said if it happens again drive straight up to dealership. Uhh, my wife would be unprotected. When it does occur, I pull the vehicle over, shut off and start up.

I got a warning on my dash. I looked it up in my owners manuel and it said there was a problem with one or all air bags. If I were to get into an accident they would not deploy. I will be making an appointment to get it checked out.

Supplemental airbag sign came on at 58000 miles and will not go off. Manual says to contact dealer since potential concerns it may not deploy in an accident. Dealer want to charge $150 for diagnosis + for repair. A safety related item should be covered under warranty.
