1 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 01/16/2024

The dashboard airbag light is blinking and will not shut off. I have tried to reset it and it goes off but comes right back on. I have took it to an auto part shop for a diagnostic reading and no code comes up. I see on the internet where Nissan has recalled 2008 and 2010 Rogue for this problem but not the 2009.

2 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 08/05/2022

A vehicle was purchased from pristine auto sales in hopkinsville, ky. Following the purchase, the vehicle was inspected by a licensed mechanic and he reported the following, "I/we ("licensed mechanic shop") inspected "owner's" 2009 Nissan Rogue VIN# xxxxx today due to her hearing grinding when applying her brake to stop and the vehicle is pulling to the left when applying the brake to stop. I also noticed the airbag light is on as well. Upon inspection the brake pads, the pads in the rear of the vehicle are metal to metal (on the inside) and the front pads are 1mm thick. According to NHTSA vehicles should not be on the road or even be sold from a dealer with brake pads any thinner than 3mm. It is a major safety concern as it will cause an accident. Also, after inspecting why the airbag light was on, it is found that one or more of the occupant sensors are defective and therefor causing the airbag system to be disabled. In the event of an accident the airbag system will not work. It is also against NHTSA for a vehicle to be sold with a defective safety system such as airbag system. " the issues were present upon purchase. The purchaser is not knowledgeable about vehicles. Given that the vehicle was sold with the safety concerns already present, it appears that this auto sale business is not in compliance with NHTSA and mechanic has spoken with the business and they were unwilling to cooperate to ensure repairs were made on vehicle.

Failure Date: 06/30/2018

The passenger side air bag indicator has been on since 2019, was not aware I could report it here. I have not taken it to a dealership because I can't afford to have it fixed. In 2018, I had to replace the cv joint and front rocker arms. A piece was cracked, and when I would turn I would hear a loud pop & ticking sound from the front passenger side tire area. Again I paid over 1500. 00 to have it repaired, I no longer have the photographs or the actual parts.

15 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 04/02/2018

My airbag passenger side light on the dash and on the right hand side of the vehicle came on at 100,000. This made me research recalls. I can not believe all the recalls for this problem except for 2009. Even though the car was built in 2008. I guess we are going to wait until people die until this will be done. We are to pay for it when this was a known problem. I really like my Nissan but I can not put my family at risk of being hurt or even killed. I will not repurchase a Nissan again. I guess it is cheaper to not fix it than to pay out settlements. The vehicle was never in an accident. Or hit a big bump.
