| Description of the problem | The driver's, passenger's and rear driver's door locks do not lock/unlock properly. It began with the driver's side door failing to operate properly once every 3-4 weeks. I had the door handle recall work completed in march 2011 so i thought the remote's battery was weak and replaced it in december 2011. Then the malfunction started to occur more frequently. After a few months, the driver's door lock would not unlock for entry to the car or lock once i was inside. To gain entry to the car, i would have to open the driver's rear door and reach forward to unlock the driver's side door. I had the driver's side door lock replaced in march 2012. Now the passenger door is inoperative as well as the rear driver's side door. I must get in the car and reach to lock/unlock the doors from the inside. If ever quick entry or exit from the car is needed, someone is going to be harmed. A child in a car seat, a person with limited mobility or the ability to make a quick decision is trapped unless i am able to quickly reach to lock/unlock the doors. I have filed a complaint with nissan who tells me the car is out of warranty and that they will give me a $500 dealer assistance towards a $1700 bill for a defective system. I found on the internet other 2009 rogue owners with the same complaint. The murano and the juke have also been recalled for this problem. |
