What's wrong?
The rear seat belt retractor in a 2021-2022 Nissan Rogue is the spring-loaded unit that feeds belt webbing out when a passenger buckles in and pulls it back when the belt is released. It keeps the belt lying flat and snug enough for proper fit, while still letting the passenger move during normal driving.
On the affected Rogues, a supplier tooling problem bent an internal retractor base bracket unevenly during seat belt assembly. That bend lets the internal spool bind inside the retractor. When the spool binds, the rear belt can become hard to pull out, slow to retract, or unable to retract fully after use. Nissan's safety assessment said the belts would restrain occupants in a crash, but the assemblies did not meet required fitting, locking, and retraction requirements.
Owners should look for visible slack in the rear seat belts or belts that pull back slowly after they are unbuckled. Those are the warning signs named for this recall.
Who's affected?
The same rear seat belt buckle assembly is involved across both Rogue model years.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific SUV.
What's the safety risk?
A rear seat belt that retracts slowly or leaves visible slack is harder to use, and an unused seat belt raises the risk of injury in a crash. If your Rogue has this condition, schedule the inspection soon and use another seating position until the belt works normally. Repair is free at any franchised Nissan dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2021-2022 Nissan Rogue is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Nissan dealer to schedule the free rear-seat-belt inspection and replacement for belts that do not retract properly.
- Bring the recall notice if Nissan mailed one. If not, reference recall number 22V666 when you call.
- Avoid carrying passengers in rear seats with belts that do not retract properly until the repair is complete.
- Call Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669 with questions about the recall or dealer scheduling.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Nissan technician inspects the rear seat belts for the left and right rear seats and replaces any belt assembly that does not retract properly. The inspection, replacement parts, and labor are free under the recall. Out-of-pocket repairs already paid are handled through the existing warranty, not through a separate reimbursement program, since the affected Rogue vehicles are still under warranty. Ask the service desk how warranty coverage applies if you have prior repair paperwork.
