2015 Nissan Rogue: key fob or push-button start problems

Filed Sep 8, 2024 · FL

The system failure that I keep experiencing is regarding the ignition. When I turn my car off and try to lock the ignition, my key gets stuck and will not release. I have to turn the car back on and off a few times for it to finally release. No warning messages appear and it happened out of nowhere. I thought it might be the key itself, but I do not think that is the problem. I used my addition key fob that I never use to see if the same problem would occur and it did.

As part of the federal safety agency Campaign Number 23V093000, Nissan provided an interim remedy by inserting a fastener into the key slot of the jackknife key on July 21, 2023. After this interim remedy, key blade could not be folded back into the key fob. Another notice was received from Nissan recently which stated that they have a permanent remedy for this which is to insert a spacer into the key slot. As with the interim remedy, the permanent remedy will also prevent the key blade from being folded back into the key fob. In addition, the letter from Nissan states that any keys that are not repaired will be deactivated. Carrying a key with an open key blade in the pant pocket is causing skin irritation and there is a possibility of injury as well. If I decide to get the keys repaired as required by Nissan, then it I have to deal with the skin irritation and possibility of injury. If I decide to not get the keys repaired, then Nissan will deactivate my keys effectively locking me out of own car that is fully paid off.

I was getting ready to load groceries in the back of my 2015 Nissan Rogue as I have done many times and lifted the lift gate. I let go because the gate always stays up on it's own but this time it came crashing back down with major force and hit me in the head. I was stunned to say the least and have a huge lump on my head. The lift gate is not staying up now. This model only opens from the lift gate release on the door (not on the key Fob). I am hurt but this could have been so much worse. I saw a recall # online for this issue - recall # 16V219000, but was told there isn't a recall of this type on my vehicle.

My key fob barely works,the red key indicator comes on every few streets. I went for oil change & tune up,they informed me back brake light,passenger side didn't work. Got recall inspection/ repair & wasn't informed of anything wrong. Not to mention I've topped of ac charge twice in one month. There's clearly an issue of fire hazard with the Rogues.I make too many on time payments to be played for an idiot. Also,I shouldn't have to pay a new car price for repairs.

I unlocked my car to get in and then when I tried to start it, it made this clicking sound. The battery turned on so I kept trying to push on the brakes and then press the start button and it still wouldn't work. I did this about 6-9 times and then finally the car turned on. After a few second the A/C turned off and then turned back on. On multiple occasions it doesn't detect the key in the fob. I have changed out the battery in my key fob, I had it looked over by 2 mechanics and my battery and start and engine look good and are in good condition. It happened every time and my car turned off while I was pulling out of my driveway and quickly turned back on.

I have to take out the fob and re-sync to get the vehicle to pick up the key. Very odd. The vehicle was not on...stationary.

Almost 3 months into car while driving speed was like when the car is in neutral(but on drive) & if I pressed the gas pedal nothing happened then it turned off. I thought it was a 1 time thing, then it happened again almost 2 months after, dealer said we cant find the problem. It happened 2 more times they could never find the issue. Then it wouldnt even turn on making a loud noise then saying key not detected. Then after this towing company jump started car, & at the dealer it happened to them once. They said they tested everything but car would say key not detected. Then after we told them we submitted everything to corp[orate office they said it was just the battery & it didn't happen again. Service manager said that the juice in the battery was all drained & something else had to cause that especially when it says key not detected. That they don't feel safe us taking car back until they can find issue but luis at nissan north america said that is not what service department told them. That they can't help us doing a buy out for this defective car because to them nothing is wrong with it. This is a very hazardous and unsafe matter and the last time it turned off on me I was in the highway i45 had to slowly let it go to the side road until I was able to turn back on. At the moment is still at the dealership. The only person trying to help & seem concern is doug at service dept.
