2026 Nissan Rogue Transmission Gear Indicator Display Failure
Nissan is recalling certain 2026 Rogue vehicles because the instrument panel may not display the transmission gear selection indicator, potentially leading to unintended vehicle movement or rollaway.
What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: This is a structural vehicle defect (failed compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 102) that creates a risk of unintended vehicle movement and crash. No injuries or deaths are reported in the source text, so the score is 3 per the rubric criteria for high-risk defects where injury has not yet been reported.
Plain-English summary
Nissan North America, Inc. is recalling certain 2026 Rogue vehicles due to a defect in the transmission gear position indication system. The instrument panel may not display the transmission gear selection indicator (PRNDL), which means drivers may not see which gear the transmission is in.
When the gear selection indicator is missing, drivers cannot easily verify the transmission position, which may lead to unintended vehicle movement or rollaway. This creates an increased risk of crash. The vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 102, which requires proper transmission shift lever sequence indication.
Dealers will inspect and replace the transmission control valve assembly as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 19, 2026. Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 800-647-7261. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov on July 2, 2026. Nissan's internal recall number is PD198.
