My air bag warning light is flashing on and off. I’m told by my repair man that the air bag is defective and the entire passenger seat needs to be replaced.

The driver's side seat is laying flat back and will not come up when I press the button. It has been like this for about two weeks. I am not comfortable driving the car but I need to have my mobility. I have a small special needs child and have not had her in the car since and have used uber on occasion. I live within public transportation in NYC so I have been taking a chance and driving like this to the subway and using the trains. I would like to see if my vehicle can be repaired under the recall #R21B9 regarding electrical issues, because based on what I am reading my issue is exactly as noted. Please review my incident and assist me in having the issue repaired. Thank you

THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR BECAUSE OF AN AIR BAG SEAT FAULT IN THE 2009 ROGUE CARS. THE 2008 AND 2010 ROGUE MODELS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM BUT A RECALL WAS ENFORCED ON IT. NISSAN ADMITTED THE 2009 SEAT SENSOR WAS MADE BY THE SAME COMPANY BUT IT WAS A VIN PROBLEM. FOUND ON YOUR SITE AFFECTED VIN NUMBERS ALL START WITH JN8AS58 INCLUDING MINE. WE ARE ALL HAVING THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM OF THE AIR BAGS BEING SHUT OFF AUTOMATICALLY. NISSAN WANTS 2000 DOLLARS TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM ALSO PASSES THE SAFETY PART OF A NYS VEHICLE INSPECTION. I THOUGH AIR BAGS WERE PUT IN THE CAR TO SAVE LIVES, BUT IS NOT CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE THEM NOT DEPLOYING. PLEASE PUSH FOR A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE DIES.

THE AIRBAG SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE IN THE 2009 NISSAN ROGUE JUST LIKE THE 2008 AND 2010 ROGUE. THE AIRBAG WEIGHT SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT STAYS ON DISABLING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG TO WHOM EVEN SITS THERE. IT ALSO LEAVES A FLASHING AIRBAG LIGHT IN THE DASHBOARD. NISSAN IS WARE OF THE PROBLEM AND MAKES YOU PAY THEM TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AT AN HOURLY RATE THEN CHARGE YOU OVER $2000 TO REPLACE THE SEAT LIKE THEY DID FOR THE 2008 AND 2010 MODELS IN A RECALL. THE PARTS ARE THE SAME IN THE 2009 MODEL. *TR

I HAVE THE SRS LIGHT CONSTANTLY ON AND WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE OCCUPANT SEAT SENSOR IS BAD AND NEED REPLACEMENT. THIS DEVICE STOP THE PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG FROM DEPLOYING EVEN IF THERE IS AN OCCUPANT, SO THEY ARE AT RISK. DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY USERS NEED TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A SAFETY DEVICE THAT SHOULD WORK. 2008 NISSAN ROGUE WAS RECALLED, SO WHY OTHER YEAR AREN'T IF THE PROBLEM IS NOT SOLVED.

BLINKING AIRBAG LIGHT ON DASHBOARD. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY CHARGED $115 FOR INSPECTION AND SAID THAT PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION NEEDS TO BE CHANGED WHICH HAS OCS SENSOR BUILT IN, WHICH WOULD COST ADDITIONAL $1965. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH ALL NISSAN ROGUE 2009 AND THE COMPANY MUST RECALL TO RESOLVE THIS AS IF THE AIRBAGS DO NOT DEPLOY IN CASE OF ACCIDENT IT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURIES OR DEATH

AIR BAG FAILURE - THE AIRBAG SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT FAILED WHICH CAUSED THE ENTIRE AIRBAG SYSTEM TO NOT WORK (AS NOTED BY THE FLASHING AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE DASH AS WELL AS THE SECONDARY AIRBAG LIGHT CONSTANTLY ON NEAR THE GEAR SHIFTER). THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND CONCERN. THIS PARTICULAR YEAR OF THE NISSAN ROGUE WAS NOT PART OF A RECALL (2008 AND 2010 WERE INCLUDED IN A RECALL FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE). AS A RESULT, IN ORDER FOR THE AIRBAG SYSTEM TO WORK AND TO REMAIN SAFE IN THE CAR WHEN DRIVING, IT REQUIRES A NEW PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION. THIS REPAIR COSTS GREATER THAN $2000 (PART AND LABOR).

THE NISSAN CUSTOMER FORUMS INDICATE THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM WITH THE OCS AIRBAG SENSOR LOCATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. NISSAN HAS NOT RECALLED THIS VEHICLE TO CORRECT THIS SAFETY ISSUE. NISSAN REFERS OWNERS TO THE LOCAL DEALER'S SERVICE CENTER TO HAVE IT REPLACED AT THE OWNER'S EXPENSE.

DOOR LOCK FROZE TO DUE THE COLD WEATHER. NISSAN ROGUE WAS IN A GARAGE WHEN THE INCIDENT OCCURRED. THIS SAME PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED THE LAST 3 YEARS AND NISSAN HAS ALWAYS FIXED THE PROBLEM UNTIL NOW. DEALERSHIP IS SAYING THAT THE COST OF REPAIR WILL BE $800. I WILL NEVER BUY A NISSAN AGAIN AND THEY HAVE THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE OF ANY MAJOR CAR COMPANY I HAVE EVER DEALT WITH. *TR

DEFECTIVE DOOR HANDLE/LOCKING ASSEMBLY. BOTH FRONT DOORS HANDLE ASSEMBLY FROZE UP PREVENTING ME FROM OPENING BOTH DOORS. IT COST ME $480 FOR THE REPAIRS TO BOTH DOORS. IN THE MEAN TIME MY WIFE HAD CLIMB FROM THE BACK SEAT TO PPT HE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE. EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS OUT WARRANTY AND NISSAN DID PAY FOR THE COST OF THE PARTS, I FEEL THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED AS A SAFETY RECALL. NISSAN SAYS THERE NO WAY TO PREVENT IT FROM HAPPENING AGAIN. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN NISSAN AND MOST LIKELY WILL NOT PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE FROM THEM IN THE FUTURE. *TR

THE CONSUMER DISCOVERED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN HAD BEEN ISSUED FOR THE PROBLEM. *JB

HTTP://WWW.PETITIONONLINE.COM/PETITIONS/NISSANML/SIGNATURES?PAGE=21 MY LOCK ACTUATOR HAS GONE BAD AND I WAS INFORMED BY MY NISSAN DEALERSHIP THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND IT SHE BE PLACED ON A RECALL LIST. I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH AND IT LOOKS LIKE MANY DIFFERENT ROGUES HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A VERY COSTLY FIX AND DUE TO FAULTY MANUFACTURING WE AS CONSUMERS HAVE TO BUY ANOTHER WITH HOPES THAT IT WILL CONTINUE TO WORK. MY CAR IS NOT OLD THERE SHOULD BE NO REASON TO REPLACE THIS PART SO SOON. *TR

BOTH DRIVERS DOOR AND FRONT PASSENGER DOOR LOCKS NOT WORKING. THEY ARE NOT UNLOCKING WITH REMOTE OR KEY. THE REMOTE OPENS THE REAR DOORS ONLY, THEN YOU HAVE TO CLIMB IN AND REACH THE INSIDE FRONT LATCH TO OPEN THE DOOR. THEN GET OUT THE VEHICLE AND ENTER THRU THE FRONT DOOR. NISSAN HAD OR HAS RECALL ON THE 2008 ROUGE FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. WHY NOT ON THE 2009 ROGUE? I GOGGLED MY PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE AND FOUND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. WE NEED A RECALL ON THE 2009 AS WELL. THANKS FOR LISTENING. *TR

I OWN A 2009 NISSAN ROGUE WITH 44,000 MILES ON IT. ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO MY DRIVER'S SEAT WOULDN'T OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE, AND ABOUT A WEEK AGO THE SAME THING HAPPENED WITH THE PASSENGER SEAT. I AM NOW OBLIGATED TO ENTER MY CAR THROUGH THE BACK SEAT. I DID MY RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING TO MANY ROGUES AND THERE ARE EVEN RECALLS ON SOME MODEL YEARS (EXCEPT FOR MINE OF COURSE). THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE HUDSON NISSAN ON ROUTE 440 IN JERSEY CITY, NJ WANT TO CHARGE ME $130.00 JUST TO TAKE THE DOOR APART TO SEE WHAT THE ISSUE IS. NEEDLESS TO SAY I DID NOT AGREE WITH THE PRICE. WHAT DO I DO? I HAVE A NEARLY NEW CAR THAT I CAN'T GET INTO AND THIS IS A NISSAN ISSUE AS IT HAS HAPPENED TO MANY ROGUE OWNERS. *TR

THE DRIVER'S, PASSENGER'S AND REAR DRIVER'S DOOR LOCKS DO NOT LOCK/UNLOCK PROPERLY. IT BEGAN WITH THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR FAILING TO OPERATE PROPERLY ONCE EVERY 3-4 WEEKS. I HAD THE DOOR HANDLE RECALL WORK COMPLETED IN MARCH 2011 SO I THOUGHT THE REMOTE'S BATTERY WAS WEAK AND REPLACED IT IN DECEMBER 2011. THEN THE MALFUNCTION STARTED TO OCCUR MORE FREQUENTLY. AFTER A FEW MONTHS, THE DRIVER'S DOOR LOCK WOULD NOT UNLOCK FOR ENTRY TO THE CAR OR LOCK ONCE I WAS INSIDE. TO GAIN ENTRY TO THE CAR, I WOULD HAVE TO OPEN THE DRIVER'S REAR DOOR AND REACH FORWARD TO UNLOCK THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. I HAD THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LOCK REPLACED IN MARCH 2012. NOW THE PASSENGER DOOR IS INOPERATIVE AS WELL AS THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. I MUST GET IN THE CAR AND REACH TO LOCK/UNLOCK THE DOORS FROM THE INSIDE. IF EVER QUICK ENTRY OR EXIT FROM THE CAR IS NEEDED, SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE HARMED. A CHILD IN A CAR SEAT, A PERSON WITH LIMITED MOBILITY OR THE ABILITY TO MAKE A QUICK DECISION IS TRAPPED UNLESS I AM ABLE TO QUICKLY REACH TO LOCK/UNLOCK THE DOORS. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN WHO TELLS ME THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THAT THEY WILL GIVE ME A $500 DEALER ASSISTANCE TOWARDS A $1700 BILL FOR A DEFECTIVE SYSTEM. I FOUND ON THE INTERNET OTHER 2009 ROGUE OWNERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. THE MURANO AND THE JUKE HAVE ALSO BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM. *TR
