The contact owns a 2020 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the front driver’s side seat failed to remain in a locked position as intended, and the seat moved while the vehicle was in motion. The local dealer was contacted. The vehicle was not repaired due to the cost. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.
Driver seat moves forward when brakes are applied - yes the seat and vehicle can be available anytime for inspection. When ever the brakes are applied the driver seat moves towards the steering wheel and windshield. I am concerned the seat will fail altogether and slam me into the windshield and steering wheel. It is not locked into place or something else is failing. Jeff wyler dealership in fairfield ohio provide an estimate of $2400 to replace the railings. I see this issue is occurring with other 2020 Rogues according to the internet. There is a recall for the 2021, 2022 and 2023 models for the issue. No lights or warnings on now or prior. We bought the vehcile used from a dealer in Nov 2025 and this occurred shortly thereafter. It is possible the dealer know about this issue and did not to fix or divulge to customer.
The drivers seat failed (mechanic's words) from the report, "seat rivets loose can not tighten. Will need to replace seat frame. " this puts my safety at risk because in an accident, the seat could come off, causing me to go through the windshield, crush injuries, the seat collapsing and being thrown backwards into back seat passengers in the event of getting rear ended. If the seat that I am seat belted in to detaches from the frame, none of the other safety features will matter. Airbags will be useless as will the seatbelt. When I had my oil changed on January 25, 2025, I asked them to check the drivers seat because it was moving slightly. I noticed the movement the week before. I assumed a bolt may be loose for some reason and needed to be tightened. I was shocked when they told me the seat frame failed and could not be fixed. I needed a new seat frame. I had another mechanic tell me to call Nissan because it had to be a manufacturer defect. It was not caused by wear and tear and is not normal. In researching this online, I found other people that have Nissan Rogues that have also had a problem with the driver's seat being loose and/or moving a bit. I did not report this to my insurance because I don't think I should have to pay for it. My car is less than 5 years old and only has around 42,000 miles on it. I contacted Nissan. After they investigated, they offered to pay 70% of the replacement cost. At first, I agreed but after rethinking it, I don't think I should have to pay over $400 to fix a problem that I didn't cause. There was no warning light. This is what I found online~no, a failing front seat frame in a newer Nissan Rogue is not considered normal and could indicate a serious safety issue, as Nissan has issued recalls for certain Rogue models due to potential problems with seat frame welding, which could affect occupant safety in a crash; if you suspect your Rogue's front seat frame is failing, you should immediately contact your Nissan dealer to chec.
Driver's seat is clicking and moving the driver back and forth in place while in operation. Also, the seat clicks upon stop and go acceleration, when weight is shifted and/or car breaks for a stop. Driver's seat is unsecure and has multiple movements as if the seat is trying to latch in place all while in driving operation. -2020 Nissan Rogue -.
Driver’s seat failed at the weld. It was squeaking and sliding back and forth a fraction of an inch at starts and stops. It was quite distracting for the driver and passengers thereby creating unsafe conditions. There were no warning lamps. This seat was confirmed by the dealer service center to have failed.
Yo he tenido dos frenados DE emergencia sin haber nada en el frente. Pero no sabia que pasaba. Almenos no paso nada grave. Pero vi una noticia DE telemundo que el modelo que tengo DE carro tiene problemas relacionados. Además mi asiento cuando acelero suena como si estuviera fracturado. Pero en la Nissan me dicen que está bien que no tiene nada malo.
El asiento tiene un ruido muy raro. Pero no se quita con nada. Y además el carro se me frenó una vez llendo en carretera.
Drivers seat is loose, has a tendency of moving when pulling off and moves while driving. Makes a rattling noise in the rear of vehicle on passenger side, not sure where what is making the noise. Backing mechanism is activate when nothing is in range.
