Nissan Rogue Child Seat Anchors May Be Weak

NHTSA campaign 21V474000 · Reported 2021-06-24 · Nissan North America, Inc.

high How serious is it? About this label

This is serious if you carry a child in a car seat that uses the top strap, but the notice does not tell owners to stop driving, so get the inspection done as soon as you can.

What's wrong, in plain English

The back seat of these Rogues has metal loops behind the seatback that a child safety seat's top strap hooks onto. On the affected vehicles those loops may have been welded to the seat frame poorly. A weak weld can give way, so a child seat anchored there may not stay put during hard braking or a crash, letting it move and the child get hurt. Dealers will check the rear seatbacks and replace any that are bad, at no cost.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your Rogue is included. 2. Call your Nissan dealer or Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669 and reference recall PC812. 3. Have the rear seatbacks inspected and replaced if needed — free of charge.
