Nissan is recalling certain 2017-2022 Rogue Sport and 2014-20 Rogue models that could shut off while in operation due to an issue with the key fob. More than 700,000 vehicles are affected by the recall.
According to a filing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the recall affects vehicles equipped with a jackknife key manufactured at the Kyushu, Smyrna and Renault plants. According to the filing, the internal pivot of the jackknife key may weaken over time, and the key fob could unlock.
The filing indicates that if the vehicle is driven while the key is in a collapsed position, contact with the key fob by the driver could cause the vehicles to shut down.
