my 2015 Rogue and the issue that I have been experiencing with my drivers seat loose/ rocking while driving. I've done research and was told this is a common issue with 2015 models. I feel this is a safety concern that it moves while driving especially for myself or other. When a seat moves it changes the pressure you use with the pedals. This is a true safety concern and im not sure why this hasnt been addressed sooner. I'm very frustrated with this manufacturing issue and getting no help from the company or dealership. This issues has been verified by 3 different dealers/ autobody shops and numerous of research stating this is a common issue.

What 2015 Nissan Rogue owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Upon starting the car the airbag, seatbelt light came on and will not go off.
I had been complaining about a knocking noise ever since I purchased my 2015 Nissan Rogue in March 2022. Even prior to officially purchasing this vehicle, I even paid Texas Nissan to fully inspect it due to the knocking. Except for some minor wear and tear items discovered, Texas Nissan gave the vehicle a good bill of health. So, I went ahead and purchased the vehicle from Gtubbs Infiniti. However the knocking got louder and more consistent. In March 2023, February 2025 and May 2025, I returned the vehicle to Texan Nissan to complain about the noise. On the later date, Texas Nissan finally informs me of a sway bar being broken, contol arm bushing being torn, and they also "FOUND EXCESSIVE PLAY ON FRONT DRIVER SIDE SEAT FRAME." I have never notice this kind of vibration in the seat before. However, when I mentioned that the seat frame is under recall, Sean Burreal at Texas Nissan, responded that my VIN did not qualify for the recall. I don't understand why the recall wouldnt apply to my vehicle since its affirmative that the defect exists on my vehicle per Texas Nissan. (I have a video of the defect). This all seems so suspicious.
Front passenger seat airbag sensors failed. Airbag light continues to stay on. Dealer rest and sensors failed again several days later. Dealer estimated $6,000+ for repair.
Airbag warning light came on Nissan check the problem and stated the vehicle needs a left front seat back also stated airbags will not work until the part is replaced.( Airbag is defective)
Passenger seat is intermittently not registering that someone is sitting in the seat. Airbag light flashes however dealership has no idea why. Invoice says "spiral cable had a open in the windings causing code to set" On going issues with airbag sensors.
Driver's seat shift backwards and forwards during hard acceleration or deceleration. Dealer says that they notice it but can't do anything except tighten the bolts, which doesn't make a difference. It seems to be a common problem, and it would be very distracting in a real emergency.
I had my car serviced at a nissan dealership service. The vehicle stayed their for at least a week. They did a job that requires taking out the battery, I got the vehicle the seat belt reminder chime is no longer working. I verified with the consumer affairs nissan and they said that the repair is not covered under nissan seat belt warranty.this is a safety issue and I believe it needs to be a recall. Thank you
Seat latch that moves seat up and down is broke doesn't work
The driver's seat shifts with acceleration and braking. This is a known issue with 2014 models. Dealer states the frame needs replaced, not covered under warrantee. What will happen in the event of an accident? Faulty seat frame cannot be safe. I have 43000 miles on my car.
