Seat belts reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

August 2022 Passenger Vehicle Seat Belt system light came on, concern was if the seat belt would work when occupied. Vehicle was taken to Baytown Nissan for Passenger seat belt light malfunction, was advised to replace the Occupant Control Unit and Occupant Pressure Sensor with Callibration 3.0. The light eventually corrected itself. August 2023 The Passenger Airbag Light stayed on and says the Airbag is turned off when someone is seated in the vehicle, concern is occupant safety. Took vehicle to Baytown Nissan for diagnostic, code is b00a0 module malfunction, again advised to replace OCS Control and Callibrate. I have seen previous recalls on air bag malfunctions and would like to know why this is not a safety recall. This is my fourth Nissan vehicle and never had this problem and the other vehicles were older.

My passenger side warning light stays on continuously, even when someone is using it. I've ask dealership several times and last time they finally checked and said that something to do wiring and that if I had a crash that either airbags will deploy. And that it will cost me almost 3000.00 to fix. Is this something that is part of a recall that can be fixed? Without me paying for? That requires alot of money out of my pocket that I don't have. Thanks

THE REAR MIDDLE SEAT LAP BELT LOCKS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY, TO DISENGAGE THE LOCKING OF THE BELT, IT HAS TO BE TOTALLY DISCONNECTED FROM THE LOCKING MECHANISM AND TOTALLY RELEASED BACK TO NO PASSENGER POSITION FOR THE LOCK TO DISENGAGE. INCIDENT. I HAD A CHILD IN THE MIDDLE SEAT WITH BOOSTER SEAT WITH THE SEAT BELT ENGAGED. WHEN I REACHED MY DESTINATION I COULD NOT GET THE CHILD OUT OF THE SEAT BELT BECAUSE IT WAS LOCKED AND THERE WAS NO WAY TO RELEASE THE BELT FROM THE BUCKLE BECAUSE IT WAS LOCKED AND THE CHILD ALMOST SUFFOCATED BECAUSE I COULD RELEASE THE BELT. THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT AND NO REASON FOR THE BELT TO BECOME LOCKED. I HAD TO CUT THE SEAT BELT WITH A KNIFE TO RELEASE THE CHILD.

THE NISSAN ROGUE 2017 (NO THIRD SEAT) LATCH SYSTEM IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. THE LOWER ANCHORS ARE BURIED AND SO TIGHTLY ENCASED THAT IT WAS INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT TO INSTALL OUR CHILD SEATS. IF THERE WERE A COLLISION AND THE SEATS NEEDED TO BE EXTRACTED QUICKLY, I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT THEY WOULD NEED TO BE CUT OUT DUE TO THE LOWER ANCHOR POSITIONS AND ENCASEMENT. I'M A FAIRLY STRONG, GROWN WOMAN, AND I COULD BARELY FEEL THE LOWER ANCHORS, LET ALONE INSTALL THE CHILD SEAT. I HAVE QUICKLY INSTALLED CAR SEATS IN A TOYOTA PRIUS, NISSAN VERSA, HONDA ODYSSY, NISSAN MAXIMA, NISSAN ALTIMA, AND OTHER RENTED VEHICLES. THIS LATCH SYSTEM WAS BY FAR, THE MOST DIFFICULT AND INACCESSIBLE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS VEHICLE AND IT'S LOWER ANCHORS. NOTE: OUR NISSAN VERSA IS CURRENTLY IN STORAGE AWAITING A TAKATA AIRBAG REPLACEMENT (THE SECOND ONE). WHILE WE WAIT, WE ARE PARTICIPATING IN NISSAN'S FREE VEHICLE LOANER PROGRAM, REQUIRING US TO CHANGE VEHICLES EVERY 2-3 MONTHS. AS A RESULT, WE ARE HAVING TO REINSTALL OUR CHILD SEATS EACH TIME. NO INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED YET, BUT WE ARE HAVING EXTREME DIFFICULTY IN INSTALLING OUR CHILD SEATS IN THE NISSAN ROGUE.
