SEAT BELTS:FRONT:RETRACTOR
NHTSA 21V555000- The defect
- Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2021 Rogue Sport vehicles.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."
- The risk
- A seat belt retractor that does not function as intended can increase the risk of injury during a crash.
- The fix

Checking your own car
A recall applies to a range of VINs, not to every 2021 Nissan Rogue Sport built. To confirm whether yours is affected, find the 17-character VIN on the driver-side dashboard or door jamb and enter it in NHTSA's official lookup.
Repairs for safety recalls are free and never expire. A dealer cannot charge you, and cannot refuse on the grounds that the car is old or out of warranty. If one does, call the NHTSA hotline on 1-888-327-4236.
