7 recalls across 9 model years
The Nissan NV has 7 recalls covering 2012 through 2019, with the most serious being a driver's side airbag inflator defect on 2012-2017 models where the inflator can rupture during deployment and send metal fragments into the cabin, potentially causing serious injury or death.
The 2018-2019 model years have a backup camera that can fail to display an image when reversing, removing rear visibility and raising the risk of a collision. On 2014 passenger van models, seat belt retractor bolts on the second, third, and fourth row seats may not have been tightened to specification or may be missing entirely, which can allow the retractor to pull free from the seat structure and leave occupants without effective belt restraint in a crash.
The 2012-2013 model years have a transmission shift lever issue where the gear selector plate lock clip can be installed incorrectly or disengage over time, causing the gear indicator to show Park while the vehicle is actually in a different gear and free to roll. The 2013 model year has a related but separate issue where a chemical reaction in the shifter mechanism can cause foam to stick to the lever lock, preventing it from returning to the locked position after shifting.
