2011 Nissan Rogue recall: steering

⚠️ What's wrong

Nissan is recalling certain model year 2011 Rogue vehicles manufactured from august 17, 2010, through october 30, 2010. The circuit board may not have been installed in the correct position on certain electric power steering (EPS) assist control units. This may cause additional stress on the solder of the terminal to the circuit board resulting in the solder cracking and separating completely from the circuit board.

💥 The risk

As the circuit board fails, the power steering assist feature will stop functioning, increasing the force needed to steer the vehicle and increasing the risk of a crash.

🔧 The fix

Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the EPS control unit if necessary, free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin during december 2011. Owners may contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
