- The 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.
- What it can cause
- 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.
- What the dealer does
- 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.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 712,458 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 98% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2014 to 2022, so the oldest vehicles on it were 9 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Nissan vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 21 times before this, most recently in November 2022 as 22V875000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 13 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 3,609 complaints with NHTSA, 2,456 of them before this campaign was filed. 599 of those name the electrical system, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in January 2014, 9 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 5 other recalls published here, the newest being: 22V875000 (electrical system), 22V024000 (electrical system), 21V839000 (engine and engine cooling), 21V555000 (seat belts).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Nissan North America, Inc. with NHTSA on February 16, 2023 as campaign 23V093000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
