POWER TRAIN
Vehicle has 130k miles. Engine light for Intake Camshaft Retarded code occurred while driving. Clicking of valves hitting pistons can be heard. Car now requires engine replacement, with quotes for repair between $4-6,000 dollars for install, and rebuilt engines costing $2,000. The Nissan dealership quoted $10-$12,000 for them to repair. I purchased the car just over a year ago at 118K miles.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I am filing a formal safety complaint regarding a severe electrical failure and fire hazard inside the fuel tank of my 2015 Nissan NV200, directly related to Safety Recall PMA56 (NHTSA 25V676000). The dealership performed the recall service but refused to replace the fuel pump module, claiming no diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) were present. Experiencing ongoing symptoms, I purchased an OEM replacement fuel pump and extracted the original module myself. Upon disassembly, I discovered: 1. Severe Electrical Arcing/Thermal Damage: The fuel level sender ceramic card, contacts, and internal harness connectors were completely charred, carbonized, and melted due to an active short circuit/extreme thermal event inside the module. 2. Debris Contamination: The internal short circuit melted the module's plastic housing, dropping burnt debris directly into the reservoir and clogging the fuel strainer. Running an active short circuit with exposed arcing contacts inside a volatile environment saturated with fuel vapors creates an imminent risk of tank explosion or vehicle fire. The dealership's protocol of only inspecting external wires or relying on DTCs is inadequate. I urge the NHTSA to audit Nissan's remedy procedures for Campaign 25V676000, as the current inspection protocol fails to detect severe internal module destruction

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
My vehicle received a Nissan recall repair for a fuel pump/fuel tank temperature (FTT) sensor harness defect that can short-circuit and blow the fuel pump fuse, causing a stall. About three weeks and 350 miles after that repair, the engine stalled unexpectedly while driving on a public road, creating a crash risk. An independent shop diagnosed it: fuel pump fuse blown, FTT sensor fault code present, no fuel pump activity on key-on-engine-off test. Replacing the fuse got it running, but the fault code stayed pending, meaning the underlying issue wasn't fully resolved. This is the exact failure mode the recall was meant to prevent, occurring right after the recall repair — suggesting the repair was done incorrectly or not fully completed. No warning lights appeared beforehand. The dealership was shown this diagnosis but has not inspected or repaired the vehicle since, only asking that it be driven in. The blown fuse and vehicle are available for inspection, and I have written documentation from both the independent shop and the dealership's recall repair order.

AIR BAGS
On 9/25/25 I was driving through a green light in Baltimore MD. The streets were grand view and w cold spring lane . A driver ran the red light from my left side and hit me so hard he totaled my 2014 NV200 cab edition. The air bag did not deploy , instead it shot out steering like like missle and hit me in face causing a concussion that led to overnight hospitalization to get cat scan and MRI.. the airbag also cause a permanent burn on right knuckle and lacerations, and damage to my neck from whip lash reacting to being hit unexpectedly by first car then air bag projectile. The air bag hitting me face caused more damage to my body than actual accident which caused severe lower back pain and injuries to my hand and left lingering nerve pain to left and ride side of body. The impact was so hard my nose also bled the next day and I had migraines and blurry vision for next week. I could not work for next 5 days on doctor note because of concussion. I lost income I have medical bills and I lost my van I use for my delivery business which generated 2,000 a month income. The air bag deployment malfunction was recalled in this exact model in 2016 by Takata air bag contracted with Nissan at time. I bought van in March 2024 from checker cab company in Long Island New York. I was not aware of any recalls being done and was not informed or given paperwork about potential dangerous air bag. There was no warning lights on regarding air bags deficiencies. The vehicle was inspected by opposing party insurance. Farmers insurance and deemed totaled. It was towed to bill Elliott 5900 York Rd.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I understand there is a safety recall on other Nissan NV200's with regard to the ignition system. Where my van is not specifically listed in the recall, I have issues with the ignition switch turning and have to juggle it to get it into the start position. It does not instill confidence that I may not have a similar issue with my vehicl eand maybe it was missed in the recall batch? I called my local Nissan service department and they said they would need a half to full day to diagnose it and it would cost me $200. Are there then , good will considerations for getting this taken care of or included in the recall? I do not want to have a problem in the future but don't think I should have to pay to have it checked out and really don't have the extra money. It is detrimental as well to have a recall notice pop up on Kelly Blue Book when it is used by dealerships and others to determine value of the vehicle, even if this particular vin was not included. This has been an ongoing issue with my van since I purchased it in March.

The passenger side airbag deployed when I shut the door. My son was sitting in the seat. This incident could have been very harmful to my son. We had just had the airbag sensor repaired after waiting 6 months for it to arrive on back order. It was also replaced in 2021 under warranty, and in 2017 under a recall. The vehicle is currently at the dealership and available for inspection.

The red dash airbag light began flashing continuously approximately 4 months ago. I took it to a neighborhood automobile repair shop where the problem was diagnosed. They explained that only a Nissan dealership could make the repair. I took the car to Reliable Nissan in Albuquerque, NM on October 1, 2024. I was told the parts (98856-9SE0A Controller Assy-Occupant Sensor, and 98853-3JACA Sen-Occupant) would need to be ordered with a dealer-provided ETA of October 17, 2024. I paid $752.77 for the parts ordered on October 1, 2024. I was called back to the dealership for the repairs and was told the wrong parts were shipped and that I would have to come back when the correct parts arrived. They had no ETA for the correct parts arrival. I have reached out to the dealership and the Nissan National Consumer Affairs department. I have had six interactions with the National Consumer Affairs department. Each time I'm told there is NO ETA for the OSA sensor. I believe this is a safety concern. In one conversation with the Consumer Affairs Dept. I was told there is not enough demand currently to actually manufacture the part. I would think that customer safety would constitute adequate demand. I also worry that the cost to manufacture the part will increase by the time it is actually manufactured. I will still need to pay approximately $750.00 for labor to install the parts when they are finally manufactured and delivered. Assistance with encouraging manufacture of this part is requested.

The Nissan NV 200 heaters stop working. We now have 3 NV 200's (2 model year 2014 and 1 model year 2020) with non-working heaters. The blower works, but only blows cool air. When the windshields fog up, they cannot be defrosted. This has become a significant safety issue being that these vehicles are driven in Cleveland, OH. Repair facilities have not been able to fix the problem.
