2026-10-26, Air Bags
The component that failed is the OC Module for the passenger side front seat. This module along with the sensors are responsible for sensing and dealing the airbags. We noticed the airbag light and took action as soon as possible. We took our Nissan Rouge to the local dealership (All Star Nissan of Denham Springs) where it was diagnosed. We were told that this part is crucial to the airbag deployment system and without it, we will lose function of most airbags if we were to get in a wreck.

2026-10-14, Unknown Or Other
The car has a egr cooler going out, it caused the coolant to completely drain and the car started to stall on the highway and jolt making it extremely unsafe to drive. It caused the vehicle to start to overheat and not be able to drive while we were driving on the highway, it could have caused a major accident. This is a known defect across 21 rogues but Nissan is reusing to help since it is not a recall. I contacted the dealership and Nissan consumer affairs.
