In 2017, the Nissan Rogue will come with a pair of wheel lock keys that are conveniently stored in the glove compartment on the passenger side of the vehicle. These keys are usually attached to the inner chamber wall for easy access. Each tire on the car is equipped with a wheel lock, serving the purpose of deterring potential thieves from stealing your tires easily. The locks require the keys for removal, making it more challenging for thieves who would need to locate and use the keys to unlock all the wheels before attempting to steal them.
I bought my pre-owned Rogue Sport SV from the local Toyota dealer and didn't think to check the glovebox for the keys. It was only when I visited the mechanic for a tire rotation and balance that I found out the keys were missing. I'd rather discover it at the shop than on the roadside, right? LOL Anyhow, when I contacted the dealer, they couldn't help and advised me to contact Nissan to unlock them. The lesson here is, if you're purchasing a used car, be sure to grab the wheel lock keys before you drive off the lot.
The wheel lock key for a 2017 Nissan Rogue can be found in various places, but it is typically kept in either the glove compartment or central console of the vehicle.
Where can I locate the specific tools for removing tires?
