SUMMARY:

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 Nissan Rogue vehicles manufactured July 31, 2013, to January 16, 2016.

In the affected vehicles, the rear lift gate support stays may corrode due to insufficient anti-corrosion treatment.

Corrosion of one or both of the rear lift gate support stays could cause a sudden release of pressure.

If this occurs, the support stays may break off, increasing the risk of injury.

 

REMEDY:

Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rear tailgate stays, free of charge.

Parts are not currently available.

Interim notices were sent to owners on June 7, 2016.

A second notice will be sent when remedy parts become available.
