Alexander Davis | ConsumerConnect

Nissan North America is recalling 4,083 model year 2021 Rogue Sport vehicles.

The automobile manufacturer said that the seat belt Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) may deactivate early, reducing the protection offered to an installed child seat.

The company stated that a seat belt retractor that does not function as intended can increase the risk of injury during a crash.

In regard to what to do in correcting the error, Nissan says dealers will replace the front passenger seat belt, and as necessary, both outer rear seat belts free of charge.

Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed September 14, 2021.

Affected vehicle owners may contact Nissan Customer Service on (800) 867-7669. Nissan’s number for this recall is RT049 & RT050.
