What 2009 Nissan Rogue owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
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
Airbag malfunction light flashes on dashboard. Passenger side airbag deactivated light lit next to gear shift. Have been told that OCS sensor in the passenger seat has malfunctioned.
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.
Airbags passenger wont work because of faulty sensor in passenger seat.
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.
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.
Passenger side airbag light stays on. Reset by dealer, and back on within a day or two. Dealer now says they have traced this back to a faulty sensor in the seat cushion, and the cost of the part alone is over $2000.00 this is a major safety issue, there a numerous complaints on here for various years of rogues. And that is just from the people who have taken the time to voice concern.
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
Passenger air bag warning light is on constantly, gainesville nissan (fl) charged over $100 to tell me the seat sensor is bad and $2,500 to fix it. 2008 and 2010 rogues are covered by recall, but not 2009. Will never buy nissan again! Safety issue, they don't care if customers die.
