2014 Nissan NV recalls

Recall 20V-188: Air Bags

Reported Mar 30, 2020 · 216,678 vehicles affected · Nissan North America, Inc.

Problem: Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2012-2017 NV Cargo and NV Passenger Van, 2013-2015 Titan and Armada and 2011-2012 Infiniti QX56 vehicles. Due to a manufacturing issue, the air bag inflator may not function properly or may rupture during deployment.

Risk: An inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.

Fix: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front driver air bag inflators, free of charge. The recall began May 7, 2020. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669 or Infiniti customer service at 1-800-662-6200.

Recall 14V-419: Seat Belts

Reported Jul 10, 2014 · 594 vehicles affected · Nissan North America, Inc.

Problem: Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2014 NV passenger vans manufactured March 14, 2014 to May 15, 2014, equipped with seat belt retractors from Faurecia Automotive Systems. The seat belt retractor bolts on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th row removable seats may not be torqued to proper specification, or may be missing, on the affected vehicles. This can cause the seat belt anchor to not be secured properly.

Risk: If the seat belt retractor bolts are not torqued to specification, or are missing, it may cause the seat belt anchor to not be secured properly. If this occurs, the belt may not properly restrain the seat occupant in the event of a crash increasing the risk of injury.

Fix: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the seat belt retractor bolt for the proper torque, and tighten if necessary, free of charge. The recall began in September 2014. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

Rear air conditioner will not cool, even with warranty work, nissan never fixed it. This is a pervasive problem with most vans of this model.

Unknown or Other · at 84,000 miles · reported Jun 3, 2020

The rear AC blower motor died for the second time in less than a year. This passenger vehicle is the only mode of transportation for my family with 7 small children ranging in age from 10 months to 11 years old. Yesterday and today, the temperature in the rear of the vehicle has reached 104 degrees inside (86 degrees outside) while the AC is running on its highest setting in the front of the vehicle.

The air conditioning for this passenger van is not sufficient to keep rear passengers at a safe temperature. There is an open case with nissan, but no repair has been found at this time. These vehicles are not safe for transport passengers, especially children. See attached image of front (Indoor) and rear (Outdoor) seat temperatures after operating the A/C system for 20-30 minutes on high.

Air Bags · at 37,900 miles · reported Feb 7, 2018

Traveling at highway speed, traffic slowed. As traffic was slowing and I was braking traffic came to a sudden stop. I was maintaining my normal following distance, yet the vehicle seemed to take a longer distance than normal to stop. I impacted the vehicle in front of me hard enough to bend the frame, yet the air bag did not deploy.

Steering · at 800 miles · reported Mar 26, 2017

Vehicle purchased 08/31/2015. Within 1 month of purchase, on a business trip, power steering started to make noise during turns. I found the steering fluid reservoir low and a leak under the vehicle. Purchased and topped off fluid, notified service department at nissan san leandro. I was told to keep the fluid topped off and to bring the vehicle in as soon as I returned. The problem was repaired and I was told that it was a bad connection on a power steering line due to "a robot not tightening the fitting all the way".
