2021 Nissan Rogue Airbag System Campaign P2A08
Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Service Campaign P2A08 for 2021 Rogue vehicles to update the front passenger restraint system. This involves replacing the front passenger airbag and seat belt retractor, and reprogramming the airbag control unit (ACU).
Why This Matters
Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Service Campaign, identified as P2A08, for certain 2021 Rogue vehicles. This campaign aims to improve the front passenger safety rating in frontal crash tests. Vehicles covered were produced before Nissan implemented an update to the restraint system, which enhanced the New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) frontal crash test rating.
While affected vehicles meet all U.S. federal safety standards and received an overall NCAP safety rating of 4 stars, the front passenger safety rating in frontal crash tests was two stars. This campaign is intended to increase customer confidence and satisfaction by bringing these vehicles up to the improved standard.
What's Being Addressed
This 2021 Nissan Rogue airbag campaign focuses on the front passenger restraint system. The campaign specifically targets vehicles that were manufactured between June 30, 2020, and February 11, 2021.
Approximately 53,207 vehicles in the U.S. are affected by this service campaign. The campaign ensures that these vehicles receive the updated components and software for enhanced front passenger safety.
How to Check if Your Vehicle is Affected
Owners of 2021 Nissan Rogue vehicles can verify if their specific vehicle is included in this campaign. You can check your vehicle's status using Service Comm or DBS National Service History, referencing Campaign ID P2A08.
If you own a 2021 Rogue and have not received a notification letter, you can contact Nissan with your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). They can confirm if your vehicle is part of this voluntary service campaign.
Manufacturer's Remedy
To correct the condition, Nissan dealers will perform a specific repair procedure. This involves replacing the front passenger airbag and the front passenger seat belt retractor. Additionally, the airbag control unit (ACU) will be reprogrammed with updated software.
Dealers are instructed to use technical bulletin NTB22-063 to guide the repair process. The service is provided free of charge to the customer for both parts and labor. The estimated time for this corrective action is up to four hours, though actual time may vary based on dealer scheduling.
Required Tools and Parts
Technicians will utilize the CONSULT III+ diagnostic tool for the ACU reprogramming. The specific parts to be replaced include:
- K8E15-6RCOA: Pass Air Bag
- H6884-6RR7A: Pass Seat Belt (Charcoal (G) & Tan (C) Interior Trim)
- H6884-6RR7B: Pass Seat Belt (Gray (K) Interior Trim)
- 76988-6LB5A: Clip
- 01125-N6061: Bolt
Note that parts, including the H6884-6RR7B Passenger Seat Belt, became available for normal ordering beginning August 30, 2022, following a lifted restriction.

Recent owner reports about air bags and seats
The component that failed is the OC Module for the passenger side front seat. This module along with the sensors are responsible for sensing and dealing the airbags. We noticed the airbag light and took action as soon as possible.
Read owner complaints →I was driving on I25 south towards Albuquerque. I was changing lanes and another vehicle slammed into me causing me to crash into the guard rail. I was going 75 miles per hour at the time and my air bags did not deploy and my vehicle is very likely totaled.
Complaints are owner reports filed with NHTSA. They are unverified, and counts depend on how many vehicles were sold, so they are not a failure rate.
