I have had this vehicle since 2013 and live arizona. Summers are extremely hot. We purchased this vehicle for our family. At the time we had 7 children. We now have 10, so every seat in our van is taken. We have complained about the air flow and air conditioning since we purchased the van back in 2013 and were told that this is how passenger vans are. We were told since it was such a large amount of space to cool and are van is black it was just the nature of this type of van. However, as more people are purchasing this van for their families we have read more posts about the same type of issue and refuse to continue to believe that this is just how all passenger vans are.. There has to be something done about the design of the air system. My children are sweating, turning red and complain

I was driving in yorktown, ny 10598 and as I was making a right turn at the corner of hallocks mill rd. On to route 202, my Nissan nv200 van just stopped. There was no warning, no flashing lights, no sound, nothing to indicate there was a problem with the vehicle. Up until this point, the van was driving perfectly as it had been doing since I got it. I had no reason to suspect that it would just come to a dead halt and the engine would die. Luckily there was not much traffic and cars were not going fast. However, if this had happened on a main road, especially one of the highways that I travel on, like rte. 84, the major deegan, the taconic, etc. I would have been killed. Imagine pulling out into traffic with trucks barreling down at you and your car just stops! Imagine if I h

The window regulator bent into itself and cause the window to not be able to go up. Mechanic said that this should not happen, and it seemed the part was faulty. The door latch also stopped working, you could open the drivers door from the inside once, then the latch stopped working and the door would have to be opened from the outside. Two weeks after that happened the drivers power seat will no longer move forwards and back, but other functions on the seat work.

The tires on this vehicle wear extremely prematurely which causes the vehicle to swerve and steer very badly.the tires will make a roaring, bumping, and a wha wha wha sound I do not feel safe in this vehicle. The tires wear so very quickly, within 3-4 months. This is a van represented as a commercial van,it cannot meet the needs of commercial transportation. There needs to be a recall and Nissan needs to figure out what is causing the tires to wear so quickly. This is dangerous and consumers are unsafe due to this problem. It is going to cause an incident or deaths! Someone please make Nissan figure out what is causing this problem and fix it so consumers are safe driving on the roads every day for their jobs.

I brought the vehicle to coastal Nissan dealer ship in norwell ma . I showed them my tires they had a certified technician inspect the tires . He reported back the tires are defective . He said a belt had let go inside the tire and the vehicle was unsafe for the road. The dealer ship told me they were not responsible for defective parts. I hope some one looks into this matter to prevent a person from getting a plow out on the highway. Thank you *js
