2015 Nissan Nv200

The contact owns a 2015 Nissan NV200. The contact stated that the climate control mode failed to defrost the windows. Approximately 3 years after the first failure, the vehicle was repaired; however, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was taken to the dealer at the first failure, and it was determined that the heater box had failed. The heater box and climate control bracket were replaced. The vehicle had not been taken to the dealer for a second diagnostic test or repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. The approximate failure mileage was 10,000.

The vehicle safety switch is bad and Nissan dealers will not sell the part unless you buy the entire transmission. I bought this transmission in Nov 2020 from Nissan Dealer and the part is malfunction allowing it to start in all gears. The warranty on the transmission is 12,000 miles or 12 months. At this point, I am forced to drive this vehicle which can make it hazardous. Nissan is insistent that will not sell the part unless I buy a whole new transmission. How can that be?

UPON CLOSING THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WHILE PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY, THE ENTIRETY OF THE SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE DEPLOYED.
