The 2014NISSANNV200 carries 22 consumer safety complaints in NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation database for this specific model-year cohort. Within that volume, owners reported 1 crash, 0 fires, 2 injuries, and 0 fatalities. For crash performance, NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program gave this cohort an overall Not Rated/5 rating, with Not Rated/5 front crash, Not Rated/5 side crash, and Not Rated/5 rollover scores derived from standardized barrier and dynamic tests.

Component-level analysis is where model-year complaints become actionable: the top complaint category for the 2014 NV200 is air bags with 9 filings, followed by engine (3) and tires (2). Concentration in one or two component groups is the classic signature of a systemic defect; a flat distribution usually reflects normal aging, warranty complaints, or isolated build-plant variability. This model year has 2 active recall campaigns, which means the manufacturer is obligated to remedy the covered defect at no charge for the life of the vehicle — the full NHTSA campaign numbers are listed below.

NHTSA currently has 54 investigation files overlapping the 2014 NV200, and 5 remain open. Owners comparing this cohort against neighboring years should pair the counters above with the complaint-by-year trend on the parent model page — a spike in a single year often tracks to a platform refresh, a new transmission supplier, or an updated ECU calibration.

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.

My passenger airbag light has been on ever since I've owned this vehicle starting January of 2019. I see there has been an open recall on this since May of 2016, which means it hasn't been solved in over 5 years. I feel less comfortable about driving my partner around in my van knowing her airbag may not go off in the event of an accident.

ON-GOING ISSUE. PASSENGER'S AIR BAG WARNING THAT THE AIRBAG IS "OFF" IS LIT WHEN MY SPOUSE IS IN THE SEAT. THIS PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT, BUT OCCURS CLOSE TO 50% OF THE TIME. THE FIRST TIME THAT THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE NISSAN SHOP, THE TECH SAID THAT "HE COULD REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM" AND THAT IT WAS RESOLVED BY "RESETTING THE COMPUTER". THE SECOND TIME IN THE SHOP, WE WERE TOLD THAT MY WIFE'S WEIGHT, ~100 LBS, WAS BORDERLINE FOR THE SENSOR AND THAT WE SHOULD EXPECT THE OBSERVED INTERMITTENT BEHAVIOR. THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO SUPPLY ANY INFORMATION REGARDING THE DOT GUIDANCE ON THE PASSENGER'S WEIGHT AT WHICH THE AIR BAG SHOULD BE DISABLED.
