What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Code: B1018, OCS Sensor failure in passenger seat which controls the passenger airbags. Passenger side airbag light kicks on thinking there is a "child" or something light in the front seat which disables the airbag. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Passenger side airbag light kicks on thinking there is a "child" or something light in the front seat which disables the airbag. This is a known issue of the manufacturer but yet the refuse to include other years of these vehicles in their recall. There even has been a lawsuit on their "fix" because they just continue to use the same sensors even when replacing the recalled vehicles sensors. They also expect you to pay 2700 to replace an ENTIRE seat cushion to replace said sensor. I am sorry but poor people do not have that kind of money laying around. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes was reproduced and confirmed by a local Nissan Deal. They even cleared the code and within 2 weeks it appeared again in the same way/format. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? Air bag warning light and the passenger side airbag light kicks on thinking there is a "child" or something light in the front seat which disables the airbag.

The contact owns a 2011 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving approximately 70 MPH, she smelled a burning odor. The contact stated that at that time she did not see any smoke in or around her vehicle, so she assumed that it may have been an outside vehicle. The contact stated that after she continued to drive for a few miles, she smelled a burning odor again, however she stated that once she looked out the window towards the passenger's side and noticed grey smoke coming from the engine compartment of her vehicle. The contact stated that she was able to drive approximately a mile, and was able to pull over in a parking lot to exit the vehicle. The contact stated that she then lift the hood of her vehicle and saw 2 wires that were still burning in the engine compartment of the vehicle. The contact stated she then contacted the fire department, who arrived on the scene, and extinguished the fire. The contact stated that she was advised by the fire department that the fire started behind the firewall of the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2011 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that she had initially taken her vehicle to Leachman Buick GMC Cadillac (2012 Scottsville Rd, Bowling Green, KY 42103) for an oil change, but upon return of the vehicle, the horn failed to operate as needed. The contact had taken the vehicle back to the dealer and was referred to a Nissan dealer for assistance. The contact had called the dealer and was informed that there were no recalls on the vehicle. Upon investigation, the contact discovered NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V032000 (Electrical System) which she linked to the failure. The contact made multiple attempts to reach the manufacturer however, each attempt was unsuccessful. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.

With no clear reason the passenger seat airbag system became defective. It did not detect passenger and always stays off. Took it to a certified Nissan dealer and they said it is a common issue, and the only fix is to reset it electrically or pay 2,500 for a new passenger seat. I opted to reset it electrically which cost $150 and was a temporary fix as the system resumed being defective after a few days. The defect is very dangerous as is disables the passenger airbag completely and will not deploy in the event of an accident which can be deadly.

Im having issues accelerating since i purchased the car, the transmission is bad , there is cut electric wires by the brake and gas pedal. When breaking there's knocking, pinging, the brakes shakes. I almost got into 4 accidents with my family and child. I was told by dealer it was the reg gas i put in the tank but then got carfax history and seen a mechanic and was told transmission is bad the light is on dash. At 25mph the rpm jumps up and down. Gas tank reads incorrectly.

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, THE CAR CAUGHT FIRE UNDER THE HOOD NEAR THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLIGHT. THE HEADLIGHT WAS REPLACED THE DAY BEFORE THE INCIDENT. THE HEADLIGHT WORKED WHEN INSTALLED BUT WAS NOT WORKING BY THE NEXT EVENING. THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLIGHTS HAVE NEEDED REPLACING MORE OFTEN THAN THE PASSENGER HEADLIGHT (A 3:1 RATIO OR A 4:1 RATIO). THAT RATIO MAY INDICATE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. HEADLIGHT BULB WAS A NAPA BP1255/H11LL-N. OUR CAR TOOK AN H11 BULB. THE LL STANDS FOR LONG LIFE.

THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT DOOR OPEN ALARM REMAINS ON AS DOES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS. WE HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY WITHIN THE LAST MONTH. WE HAVE CLEANED ALL THE COMPONENTS OF THE FRONT DOOR HINGES AND LOCKS AND THE ALARM REMAINS ON AS DO THE INTERIOR LIGHTS. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED OR MOVING.

THE AIRBAGS LIGHT IS ON AND THE WINDOW WIPER DOES NOT SPRAY VERY HARD TO CLEAN THE WINDOWS

THIS LAST TIME TO THE NISSAN IN MY AREA, I HAD THEM LOOK AT MY PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR, AS THE SENSOR INDICATES OFF, EVEN IF THERE IS NO WEIGHT ON THE SEAT. MY SERVICE ADVISOR AND THE HEAD OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT BOTH SAID THAT IT'S NOT CLEAR IF THE AIRBAGS WILL DEPLOY IF THE SENSOR IS OFF. THEY SAID I COULD GET IT REPLACED, BUT THE ISSUE IS: IT WILL COST $2,600 BECAUSE THEY NEED TO REPLACE THE WHOLE SEAT. COME TO FIND OUT, THIS IS ACTUALLY AN ISSUE REPORTED TO THE NHTSA FROM OTHER 2011 ROGUE OWNERS. I AM THE PRIMARY DRIVER IN MY FAMILY, BUT NOW I AM WORRIED TO TRANSPORT ANYONE. IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL, BUT THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT CAN CAUSE ME TO SELL MY VEHICLE AND NOT GET ANOTHER NISSAN. I AM NOW WORRIED OF GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT AND KNOWING FULL WELL MY AIRBAGS, THE ONE THING BUILT INTO THE VEHICLE TO KEEP PEOPLE SAFE, MAY OR MAY NOT DEPLOY, AND MAY OR MAY NOT KEEP PEOPLE SAFE. $2,600 TO FIX A CAR DEFECT ISN'T AN OPTION FOR ME. PLANNING A FUNERAL FOR SOMEONE WHO CHOOSES TO RIDE IN MY FRONT SEAT ISN'T AN OPTION EITHER. I AM TRULY AT A LOSS FOR WHAT TO DO NEXT, BUT I AM HEARTBROKEN THAT IT'S COME DOWN TO THOSE TWO OPTIONS. I WANTED TO KEEP MY ROGUE FOR A FEW YEARS MORE - I LOVE IT, BUT SAFETY IS MY NUMBER ONE PRIORITY. I WISH SAFETY WAS A PRIORITY TO NISSAN TO MAKE THIS A RECALL, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE PROFITS HAVE SURPASSED CUSTOMER SAFETY. THE SENSOR HAS BEEN ON FOR MONTHS, BUT THE FIRST TIME THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD BE DONE.

ELECTRICAL PROBLMES. NONE OF THE BUTTONS IN THE STEERING WHEEL WORKS, THE CAMARA SCREEN GOES BLACK, THE SEAT CANNOT BE ADJUSTED TO MOVE FORWARD SO I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH MY LEG STRETCH. ALSO THE WINDOWS CONTROL IS NOT FUCTIONING,

AFTER STOPPING AT STOP SIGNS OR LIGHTS A SUPER SLOW JERKY TAKE OFF. ALSO JERKS AND LOSES SPEED WHEN GOING UP HILL. HAD SHUT COMPLETELY OFF ON ME AT STOP LIGHTS 3DIFFERENT TIMES.

THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THERE ARE SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO HAVE POSTED ON THE INTERNET THE SAME PROBLEM ( THIS WAS HOW I DISCOVERED IT WAS THE CLOCK SPRING). NONE OF THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL WORK AS WELL AS THE HORN DOES NOT WORK. WHEN YOU TURN THE STEERING WHEEL ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT ( I RELIEVE IT'S TO THE LEFT) THE HORN WILL THEN WORK. I FIND THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE I CAN NOT ALERT ANOTHER DRIVER USING MY HORN. I'M LESS CONCERNED ABOUT THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL WORKING. FROM THE RESEARCH I HAVE COMPLETED I AM NOT SURE IF THIS PROBLEM AFFECTS THE AIR BAG OR NOT. I BELIEVE THERE IS A WIRE HOOK UP TO THE AIR BAG. *TR

SHORTAGE ISSUE DRAWING POWER FROM SOMEWHERE TO CAUSE CORROSION ON BATTERY AND CAUSE CAR TO STALL OR NOT START.

I WAS TRAVELING ON THE MEADOWBROOK STATE PKW TODAY (04/29/19) ABOUT 2MIN IN , THE TRAFFIC CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP FOR ABOUT 30 SEC , I SLOWLY STARTED TO ACCELERATE BUT NOTICED THE CAR WAS ROLLING BACKWARDS . I CHECKED TO MAKE SURE THE LEAVER WAS STILL IN DRIVE , WHICH IT WAS , I MABE A SECOND ATTEMP BUT STILL ROLLING BACKWARDS BY THEN TGE PERSON BEHIND ME STARTED HONKING . I IMMEDIATELY TURN MY FLAHER ON , PUT IT INTO PARK AND TURN THE IGNITION OFF WAITED A LITTLE THEN TURN THE ENGINE BACK ON PUT IT BACK INTO DRIVE THEN IT STARTED MOVING FORWARD . I AM SGAKEN UP OVER THE FACT THAT I COULD HAVE ACCELERATE HARDER AND THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT .

MY VEHICLE GETS WATER ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR, UP TO AN INCH AND CAUSES ELECTRICAL ISSUES. NISSAN STATED THEY FIXED THE ISSUE BUT DID NOT DEAL MY VEHICLE AND IT'S NOT THEIR PROBLEM AFTER THE FIRST FIX. WATER IS THERE WHEN DRIVING, PARKED OR ANY TIME THE ROAD IS WET OR RAINING.

ELECTRICAL FUNCTION IN THE VEHICLE IT'S LIKE IT HAS A SHORTAGE IN IT. WHEN I PLUG MY GPS OR MY PHONE IT WOULD GO OUT, AND NOT CHARGING. ALSO THE USB PORTAL ALSO GOES OUT. THIS IS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS DRIVING OR WHEN IT'S PARK.

MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS DOES NOT WORK MY ENGINE IS SLIPPING TRANSMISSION FLUID GOING BAD AFTER ONE WEEK KEEP CHANGING IT MY AC DON'T COME ON AND WHEN I TRAVEL A DISTANCE MY CAR GO 20 MPH AND CAN'T GO NO FASTER HELP AND GOT THE PROBLEM FIX AND THE PROBLEMS STILL OCCURRING AND NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AGAIN I WAS STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR SIX HOURS
