Have you tried filing complaints with as many regulatory agencies as you can?
AG's office, BBB and whatever authorities regulate auto dealers in your state?
It seems that you should have some sort of valid claim against Nissan because you are unable to use what you are paying for. You could contact a lawyer... maybe loss of use or something.
Is the lease through Nissan financial? Even if so, I imagine the leasing division is a separate entity from the car manufacturing division. Letting you out of the lease or replacing the car would affect the bottom line of the leasing division, even though it would be the fault of the manufacturing guys. I realize that isn't your problem, but it probably explains much of the reason why they refuse to do that.
Bottom line - you have not applied enough pressure to make satisfying you the easier choice. At this point, it is easier to just keep shining you on. You shouldn't have to do that, but it seems clear that you do.
