“Our family owns 3 Nissan 2020 Rogue SV's. In all three the rear seat belts go between the seats and cannot be retrieved from above. I reported this to NHTSA previously and did not receive a reply since this is an extreme safety issue. We are not able to safely transport anyone in the backseat.”
NHTSA complaint #11467931, filed 2022-06“We have 3 2020 Nissan Rogue SV's in our family. The rear seat belts do not stay up and are too short. We have reported this to the dealer, Gainesville Nissan, and all they say is we know it is a problem, but Nissan does not have a fix. We recently had friends in the car and the rear seatbelt could not be latched because the seat belt catch is too low in the seat to be used. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD RESULT IN AN IMMEDIATE RECALL BY NISSAN!!!!!!!!! This has happened since we purchased the car in December of 2019.”
NHTSA complaint #11432807, filed 2021-09“The contact owns a 2020 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the rear passenger’s side occupant was unable to release the seat belt buckle. After an extended attempt to assist, the contact observed that the seat belt continued to tighten and would not release, prompting the contact to cut the seat belt strap. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 128,000.”
NHTSA complaint #11676783, filed 2025-07, 128,000 miles“The seat belt connection is located so far down in the seat cushion that it is almost impossible to fasten, and it is especially difficult if you are trying to fasten in a child seat. The design is a safety problem. The seat belts I am referring to are on the back seat.”
