VERDICT

The 2021 Nissan NV1500, NV2500, and NV3500 models present an incomplete federal safety profile. Without NHTSA crash-test data, these vehicles carry no star ratings or Safety Index score. The agency's records show zero open recall campaigns and only two owner complaints, a remarkably low burden. However, this narrow data set means that neither safety nor risk can be inferred from any test result.

The 2021 Nissan NV1500, NV2500, and NV3500 were not crash-tested by NHTSA, carry zero recalls, and fall in the Light recall and complaint burden band according to NHTSA federal safety data.

ANALYSISHow safe is the 2021 Nissan Nv1500, Nv2500, Nv3500?

The 2021 Nissan NV van series concludes its federal safety record with a minimal footprint, registering zero recalls and only two owner complaints. This places it in our publication's "Light" burden band, the least intensive tier for recalls and complaints. The complaints describe an unspecified component failure and a powertrain issue. One crash was reported in connection with these complaints; no fires, injuries, or fatalities are on file. The low complaint volume prevents the identification of any trend, and the allegations remain unverified by federal investigation. No crash-test data was published by NHTSA for the 2021 model year. Without test results or a recall history, the safety profile of the 2021 Nissan NV van series remains largely unquantified by federal action.
