Summary of the Problem: The passenger side front (left passenger) door lock actuator on my 2019 Nissan Rogue has failed for the second time. This is a repeat failure of the same component, which was previously replaced approximately four years ago. The lock intermittently fails to lock or unlock using the key fob, interior door switch, and manual controls. This defect presents a significant safety concern. When the actuator fails: •The door may remain unlocked while driving •The door may fail to unlock, trapping occupants inside the vehicle •Occupants may be unable to exit the vehicle in an emergency •There is a risk that the door could open unexpectedly while the vehicle is in motion Because this is a passenger door, it directly affects occupant safety, particularly for children, elderly passengers, or anyone who may need to exit the vehicle quickly. Failure Details •Vehicle: 2019 Nissan Rogue •Mileage at current failure: approximately 74,000 miles •Door affected: Left rear passenger door •Failure mode: Lock actuator intermittently fails to lock/unlock •Methods affected: Key fob, interior lock button, and manual door lock •Prior repair: Door lock actuator replaced once before; same issue has reoccurred This indicates a pattern of premature failure rather than normal wear and tear. Frequency and Pattern: This appears to be a known and widespread issue affecting Nissan Rogue vehicles across multiple model years. There are numerous consumer complaints describing identical failures of door lock actuators on Nissan Rogue vehicles. A class action lawsuit (Khalifa v. Nissan North America, Inc.) was filed alleging a latent defect in Nissan door lock actuators across multiple Nissan models, including the Rogue. Although the lawsuit was administratively stayed pending arbitration, the underlying safety defect remains unresolved for vehicle owners. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate the repeated failure of door lock actuators in Nissan Rogue
constant issue with key fob not registering to car even after replacement of battery from dealership, now my car is not allowing me to lock the front passenger and driver side doors with any buttons but will still set alarm. when backing up my car will stop automatically even when nothing in the way nothing in the camera or on the camera, same when pulling forward it will stop out of no where showing nothing in the way. this caused a problem when i parked and it rolled forward and tore my bumper on the curb. the windows are touchy if they want to roll up some days. called nissan they said there isn’t any recalls looked online this isnt the first time nissan has heard about the electrical problems yet refuse to do anything
Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2019 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while in the process of adding the vehicle to the insurance policy, it was discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy. The vehicle was a private sale. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 65,298, and while the vehicle was being added to the insurance policy, it was discovered that the mileage on the Carfax report was 217,111.
Dash-Side Harness Connector Wiring Corroded. Warning Lights Appear on Dash. Vehicle will not start
Driver’s side door no longer locks and unlocks without physical use of the manual key. Car did not experience damage. The locking actuator stopped working randomly and has not worked, resulting in the car being unknowingly unlocked and subsequently broken into.
Driver side door look slips and does not lock fully creating a life and safety issue for our families Rogue. This problem was addressed by Nissan in 2015 only, (vehicles manufactured June 5, 2015, to June 13, 2015. In the affected vehicles, the driver side front and rear doors may not fully latch. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 206, Door Locks and Door Retention Components."") but this is still an issue and I am having the same problem in my 2019 Rogue. Not sure why Nissan is not willing to fix the problem in additional Rogue years since this is still a life and death issue for the safety of the drivers.
Jackknife key folds down while driving this is dangerous and could cause an accident
Whistling sound when using bluetooth hands free system. Exact same issue as recalled models previous 2016-2018 existing on 2019 model. While using the Bluetooth Hands-Free Phone System: The call recipient (the person receiving the phone call) hears a whistle noise through their phone’s speaker during the call. The whistle noise is not heard by the call sender (Nissan customer) during the call. The whistle noise increases when the engine RPM of the call sender’s vehicle is raised. classification: EL17-008a Reference: NTB17-097a

The contact owns a 2019 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while driving 10-15 MPH and approaching a stop sign, the vehicle inadvertently shut off. Additionally, the steering wheel and the brake pedal seized. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact was able to restart the vehicle and continued driving. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V093000 (Electrical System); however, the VIN was not included. The failure mileage was unknown.
When the driver side door reaches an internal temperature of over 100 degrees in direct sunlight, the actuator that controls the door lock will no longer function until the door cools down. The problem is easily reproducible but I have not been to the dealer as of yet. There is no warning system I know of to indicate this problem. My only safety issue was trying to get into my car. I was forced to do it from the rear drivers door, reach in and manually unlock the front drivers door. The key will not turn the lock when this occurs. None of the other doors seem to be affected, but I have not tried to reproduce it with other doors.

HAD RECALL SYSTEM UPDATE DONE IN LATE MAY OR EARLY JUNE 2020. THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOR SOME RADIO ISSUE IS WHAT I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE TECH, BUT THE RECALL NOTICE SAID IT WAS FOR THE BACK UP CAMERA. JUNE 6TH WE WENT ON VACATION AND APPORX 20 MILES FROM HOME THE EMA LIGHT THAT COMES ON WHEN THE SYSTEM IS DISABLED ILLUMINATED FOR NO REASON. TURNED OFF CAR AND RESTARTED, THE LIGHT WENT OFF. TWICE IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS, THE FRONT COLLISION LIGHT BLINKED AND THE THREE BEEPS CHIMED, BUT THERE WAS NOTHING IN FRONT OF ME. THIS WEEK, ON 7/15/2020, THE LIGHT BLINKED, THE CHIMES BEEPED AND BRAKING WAS AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED. THIS SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF ME. NOTHING AROUND ME ANYWHERE. NO BRIDGE, NO RR TRACKS, NO GUARDRAIL, CARS OR PEOPLE. NOTHING BUT OPEN ROAD. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER TODAY AND I THEY ACTED LIKE THEY DIDN'T BELIEVE ME BECAUSE THEY SAID THAT IT DIDN'T LEAVE A "STAIN" ON THE COMPUTER. THERE WERE A FEW TIMES THAT THE ALARM WENT OFF PRIOR TO THIS STARTING, BUT THEY WERE WARRANTED AND I FOUND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT NOT EVEN THOSE OCCURRENCES WERE RECORDED. SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG WITH THIS CAR AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT NOW.
