Driver's door rocking in latch while closed/ high road noise

[crayb]

Hey guys, been away for a while and thought I'd hop on and ask has anyone else experienced this.

10,800 miles. My driver's door is rocking while closed (going over rough roads and such causes it to rock in the latch, like maybe a seal or rubber has fallen off... don't see any obvious areas) and also I can tell a distinct difference in the amount of road noise while at highway speeds.

Any help greatly appreciated. Will take it into Nissan service but always like to be prepared.

My 2010 Nissan Roque driver's door will NOT OPEN with the FOB or the manual key. I have to crawl thru the passenger's side to open the door and then walk back around.

The door latch (the D shaped ring on the door jamb) is adjustable. Perhaps it has come loose. The dealer should be able to adjust it for you.

tbianco:

Nissan released a tech bulletin regarding doors that fail to open. There is an issue with water getting past the door handle seals and freezing inside the mechanism. Once this happens, the door no longer operates. Nissan will repair the latch under warranty and install new door handle seals and grease to keep it from re-occuring.

Schedule an appt. with your dealer ASAP.

In certain 2008 and 2009 Nissan Rogue vehicles, to assure customer satisfaction, Nissan is conducting a voluntary service campaign to install seals to the door latch assembly and apply special grease to the door cable ends to prevent freezing under certain conditions. See this bulletin for further details.
