2016 Nissan NV Other or unknown Problems

“After purchasing the 2016 Nissan NV 3500 sl we noticed air flow restrictions in the back three rows, our first week of ownership. . The first row air can get them by due to air in the front but with high temps in texas it's not enough. Our children have to have portable fans if we go anywhere during the day. It gets up to 100degrees in the back even after letting the van cool for thirty minutes. We have reached the point we only use our van early mornings and late evenings to avoid health concerns with the heat in the back three rows. This is hazardous! …”

“The rear air conditioning evaporator fan design has no air filter so the evaporator vanes become clogged with dust and debride within a short time causing failure of the system and thousand of dollars in repair bills. On the internet there are hundreds of disatisfied owners but no unified voice to Nissan to do a recall on this engineering flaw to repair this obvious defect. We purchased the vehicle in march and had no use of the airconditioner then but when it heated up in denver we realized the rear air conditioner fans were not blowing hard enough to even be felt. …”

“Check engine light came on, diagnosed as catalytic converter failure. Local dealership advised to replace both converters at $2500. Nissan would not cover under warranty as it claims converters are covered under exhaust/emissions warranty at 50k miles. The vehicle is just under 100k miles.”

“The AC air flow in the back of the van is completely insufficient. The air coming out of the vents is cool, however the flow of air is so light/slow, the passengers in the back cannot feel it. Since the back windows do not open it becomes swelteringly hot. We worry about our children passing out/over heating back there. It's a safety concern for us, and many others. It does not improve even once the vehicle has been running for a while, and it does not improve even when the vehicle is moving.”

“While idling, the vehicle shutoff on it’s own and restarted. Then again while stopped at a red light and again while driving to a mechanic. No warnings or indications that this would happen. It put myself and children at risk because the roads are full of snow leaving us no place for us to pull over. Now the air pressure, windshield fluid and traction control lights are on, whereas they were not previously lit. I’m currently at an independent service center waiting for diagnosis. ***Update: The mechanic gave us the code which shows the crankshaft needs to be replaced.”
