WHEN DRIVING OUR NV2500 ON A CITY STREET THE VAN JUST WENT DEAD. ENGINE QUIT, NO ELECTRICAL, NO DASH LIGHTS, NOTHING. I PUT THE VAN IN PARK AND TRIED TO RESTART. NOTHING, TOTALLY DEAD. WAITED A MINUTE OF SO AND TRIED TO RESTART - SAME AS BEFORE - NOTHING TOTALLY DEAD. OPENED THE HOOD AND CHECKED BATTERY CABLES - OK. LOOKED FOR ANY LOOSE IGNITION WIRE - OK. LOOKED UNDERNEATH VAN FOR ANY LIQUIDS COMING OUT OF ENGINE OR ANYTHING ELSE WEIRD -OK. WE CALLED AAA TO HAVE THE VAN TAKEN TO CLASSIC NISSAN IN STATESVILLE, NC. CALLED DEALER, EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED AND TOLD THEM VAN WAS GOING TO BE DROPPED OFF FOR EVALUATION. BEFORE AAA DRIVER GOT TO US I TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE ONE MORE TIME - WHEN I TURNED THE KEY THE LIGHTS CAME ON AND VAN STARTED UP JUST FINE. TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED NO PROBLEM. ABOUT A WEEK BEFORE THIS HAPPENED OUR VAN WAS PARKED IN OUR DRIVE OVERNIGHT. WHEN WE GOT IN AND TRIED TO START IT - DEAD... NO IGNITION, NO ELECTRICAL, NO LIGHTS. I MADE SURE IT WAS IN PARK AND TRIED AGAIN, NOTHING. WE LOOKED IN NISSAN HANDBOOK TO TROUBLE SHOOT. WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND TRIED AGAIN. STARTED RIGHT UP. CLASSIC NISSAN OF STATESVILLE REPORTED THAT OVER A 2 DAY PERIOD THE VEHICLE STARTED EVERY TIME TECH TRIED TO CRANK IT. THEY RAN THE VEHICLE FOR OVER 30 MINUTES BOTH DAYS - NO PROBLEM DETECTED. NO COMPUTER CODES. CHECKED AND TESTED BATTERY CONNECTIONS AND MAJOR GROUND CONNECTIONS - ALL FINE. I ASKED THEM ABOUT A POSSIBLE FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH AS THERE IS A RECALL FOR THAT PROBLEM FOR 166K NISSANS INCLUDING NV2500. THEY SAID IT WAS NOT FOR A 2013 NV2500. IT WOULD COST ME OVER $500 TO REPLACE THE IGNITION SWITCH ON MY OWN BUT NISSAN SERVICE GUY SAID HE COULD NOT BE SURE THAT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. VERY CONCERNED THAT NISSAN HAS DOCUMENTED PROBLEMS WITH IGNITION SWITCH AND THE DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT COULD ARISE WITH MAJOR STALL/ SHUTDOWN!!!

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.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: An inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Remedy: 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.
Nissan is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 NV vehicles manufactured from December 20, 2010, through January 4, 2013 and are equipped with steering column-mounted transmission shift levers. The transmission lever gear selector plate lock clip may have been installed incorrectly. As a result, normal road vibration may cause the gear position indicator to not match the gear shift lever position.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: As a consequence of the incorrect display, although the gear indicator may display that the vehicle is in Park, the vehicle may not be properly secured allowing the vehicle to roll away unexpectedly, increasing the risk of personal injury or a vehicle crash.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will correct the installation of the transmission lever gear selector plate lock clip, free of charge. The recall began on April 15, 2013. Owners may contact Nissan Customer Service at 1-800-647-7261.
Nissan is recalling certain model year 2013 Titan trucks manufactured from January 22, 2013, through February 20, 2013; and model year 2013 NV vehicles manufactured from December 17, 2012, through February 20, 2013 and equipped with steering column-mounted transmission shift levers. Chemicals used in the manufacturing of the shift lever assembly may result in the malfunction of the brake shift interlock allowing the transmission shift lever to be shifted out of Park without depressing the brake pedal.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the vehicle is unintentionally shifted out of park, it could roll away and lead to personal injury or a vehicle crash.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will remedy the vehicles, free of charge. The recall began on April 15, 2013. Owners may contact Nissan Customer Service at 1-800-647-7261.
