THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE DOORS DO NOT UNLOCK UNTIL YOU PRESS THE ENGINE STOP BUTTON. THEN ALL THE DOORS UNLOCK, NOT JUST THE DRIVER'S DOOR. THAT MAKES IT VERY EASY FOR CAR JACKERS, PURSE SNATCHERS, AND CHILD ABDUCTORS TO WAIT AT A GAS STATION FOR YOU TO PULL UP, TURN OFF YOUR ENGINE SO YOU CAN GET OUT, AND COMMIT THEIR CRIME WHEN…

THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE DOORS DO NOT UNLOCK UNTIL YOU PRESS THE ENGINE STOP BUTTON. THEN ALL THE DOORS UNLOCK, NOT JUST THE DRIVER'S DOOR. THAT MAKES IT VERY EASY FOR CAR JACKERS, PURSE SNATCHERS, AND CHILD ABDUCTORS TO WAIT AT A GAS STATION FOR YOU TO PULL UP, TURN OFF YOUR ENGINE SO YOU CAN GET OUT, AND COMMIT THEIR CRIME WHEN ALL THE DOORS UNLOCK. OBVIOUSLY THE SAME WOULD BE TRUE IF FOR SOME REASON YOU WERE PULLING INTO A SHOPPING MALL OR GROCERY STORE PARKING LOT. THERE IS A METHOD TO REVERSE THE OPERATION SO NO DOORS UNLOCK WHEN YOU TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND THIS IS SAFER, EXCEPT:..THE DRIVER'S DOOR LOCK AND FRONT PASSENGER DOOR LOCK ARE NOT MECHANICALLY CONNECTED THE THE DOOR HANDLE. IE, IF YOU DISABLE THE AUTO DOOR UNLOCK, YOU CANNOT OPEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR IN AN EMERGENCY -- LIKE A CAR FIRE, HEART ATTACK, ACCIDENT -- UNLESS YOU CAN FIND AND RELEASE THE DOOR LOCK WHICH HAS BEEN "AESTHETICALLY" HIDDEN IN THE DOOR AND DESIGNED SO IT IS NOT EASILY OPENED -- I ASSUME TO PREVENT SOMEONE FROM USING A WIRE TO UNLOCK THE DOOR. THIS IS THE FIRST VEHICLE I HAVE EVER DRIVEN THAT THE DRIVER (AND FRONT SEAT PASSENGER) CANNOT EXIT WITHOUT MANUALLY FINDING AND FLIPPING THE DOOR LOCK. HOW INSANE IS THAT? ... I MENTIONED THAT NONE OF MY AMERICAN CARS HAD THIS PROBLEM AND THE MECHANIC I WAS TALKING TO SAID IT WAS ONLY A NISSAN THING. NO OTHER CAR THAT HE KNOWS OF WILL NOT LET THE DRIVER EXIT THE CAR BY PULLING THE DOOR HANDLE...HIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND YOU TRULY HAVE VERY LITTLE CONTROL OVER YOUR OWN SECURITY IN THIS VEHICLE. ANY PERSON WITH ANY KIND OF EVEN MINOR HAND DISABILITY, LIKE ARTHRITIS, WOULD HAVE A VERY HARD TIME UNLOCKING THE CAR DOORS. THE TRULY CRAZY THING IS THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT, MAYBE, 5-10 CENTS OF CLOTHES HANGER-TYPE WIRE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND POTENTIALLY SAVE PEOPLE'S LIVES. DOES THIS VIOLATE ADA RULES?.....UPDATED 09/22/15 *BF UPDATED 11/27/2017*CN

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.

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.

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.
