a lot of A/C's are like that.
 
when you turn on the AC, the vents are cooled and if it gets more humid out, condensation will build up on your vent. the water causes there to be a stench.
 
shouldn't be anything to worry about unless it keeps on occurring

AC issue (or non-issue) by malttese33

Thanks everyone for your input on my AC odor issue. I was afraid that I might have damaged the Ac system when I had the car parked w/ the AC on for half an hour (very embarrassing to say this but I actually took a nap in my car during lunch hour ) LOL.. and normally I would have just crack open the window but that day was especially hot and I turned the AC on for the very first time and kept it on while I slept.
 
I'm happy to report that the smell previously mentioned has gradually lessened over the past few days so it probably was nothing serious. If this issue ever surfaces again I'll just have to bring it in to a Nissan shop to have it checked. But thanks to everyone who have responded to my SOS!!

Bad AC Smell by fgrossm1

I also hod a bad odor from the AC unit. It occurred when you used the AC and then shut it off. It was really bad smelling and i was ready to take it to the dealer but it has gotten a bit better so i may wait and see if it clears up. On a different note has anyone had a problem where the car shifts to high gear forcing you to press the gas down to get the power to come back up? The dealer says they all shift that way.

well the point of the CVT is to try to keep you in the lowest "gear" (ratio) as possible to save fuel. so yes, they all are like that, you'll get used to it

Very Normal. You noticed that you don't have a regular temperature gage. On the NAH, that was replaced with the battery State of Charge meter. Blue indicates that the engine is cold. That is your new temperature gage. You will notice that when you start the car and all the idiot lights come on briefly that both a blue and a red temperature gage are shown. You don't want to see red as that means the engine is over heating.
 
Got it? Enjoy the car and quiet worrying.

Thanks - Not sure why Nissan wants to remind me that the engine is cold.... I already know that... Every morning... It's cold... and the car is cold....
