It’s been missing up so bad not to mention it’s freakin scary and you terrified you’ve got to pull it over. Turn off the car try again. I’ve had to leave my vehicle at random places multiple times too scared to drive it home. Now I tried to finally look at the problem to see what it might be happening cus nobody else seems to know what the issue is. And I see there several people with the same issue on the 2012 Nissan Versa.

Summary

Vehicle is moving in forward direction always even if the gear shift is in Park or Reverse mode. It is scary. It put us lot of stress in terms of physical health, mental health and finance. We nearly met with an accident as vehicle was moving always in forward direction as soon as we moved the car from the parking lot. We towed the vehicle considering our and public safety. Contacted Nissan dealership and consumer affairs team. They went only by the books. Told that there is no recall. They did not seem to care about the safety. They asked me to go ahead and shell out for fixing. The same vehicle stopped in the middle of the road with heavy jerk/forward movement. We were lucky that we did not meet with an accident. We had to tow the vehicle in that case. I had to replace fuel pump at my own cost. With multiple safety concerns on this vehicle, I am surprised that there is no recall on this model. At the least, I was expecting this for my VIN. Request you to help on the recall considering the public safety. With vehicle few thousand dollars worth still, I may need to review and make a choice on disposing this vehicle (not sell) by taking the financial hit. Financial hit in this uncertain situation means a lot to me. It puts pressure. Since I care about public safety, I am reviewing this as the last choice. Nissan does not seem to be worried as there is no recall. Correct option is to have this vehicle recalled. Request you to review and help from safety perspective

I'VE HAD ISSUES WITH MY CAR SINCE THE DAY I BOUGHT IT. IT TAKES A WHILE FOR IT TO ACTUALLY ACCELERATE AND I'VE HAD SERIOUS ISSUES SINCE 60K MILES AND I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES AND ASKED IF THEY COULD LOOK INTO IT. THE SECOND THAT MY WARRANTY EXPIRED IS WHEN THEY LET ME KNOW THAT I NEEDED TO GET MY TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGED, BUT THEN IT TURNED OUT TO BE MY TRANSMISSION, AND THEN THEY KEPT GOING BACK AND FORTH AND DIDN'T WANT TO DO IT BEFORE BECAUSE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL TIMES ON THE FREEWAY WHERE IT STALLS AND WON'T GO MORE THAN 20MPH. IT IS VERY SCARY WHEN THIS HAPPENS AND I'VE HAD TO PULL OVER MULTIPLE TIMES TO STOP AND THEN BE ABLE TO GO AGAIN. I'VE ALWAYS BEEN ON TOP OF THE MAINTENANCE AND I'M HOPING WITH THE RECALL THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO ASSIST WITH REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION AT NO COST. I DON'T SEE MYSELF EVER BUYING A NISSAN VEHICLE AGAIN.

Summary

MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING FROM OHIO TO VIRGINIA WHEN HER CAR STOPPED WORKING WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. THE CAR WOULD NOT GO WHEN ACCELERATED. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSE A FATALITY. HAD THE CAR TOWED SEVERAL TIMES TO FINALLY END UP AT A NISSAN DEALER IN CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA. THE SERVICE TECHNICAL SAID THAT HER TRANSMISSION NEED TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH NISSAN AND WAS A PAST RECALL. BECAUSE THE RECALL TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION HAS EXPIRED, NISSAN REFUSED TO FIX IT. THE CAR ONLY HAS 68,500 MILES ON IT AND THE TRANSMISSION IS DEAD. THIS IS NOT A NORMAL CASE AND I WOULD LIKE FOR NISSAN TO EXTEND THIS RECALL AND FIX THE CAR AS THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED MY DAUGHTER TO LOSE HER LIFE. *TR

Summary

TRANSMISSION FAILED AFTER ONLY EIGHT YEARS WITH PROPER MAINTENANCE. I REVERSED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND INTO THE BUSY HIGHWAY AND WHEN I PUT IT IN DRIVE IT WOULD NOT MOVE AT ALL. I AM VERY LUCKY THAT THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC NOTICED I WAS HAVING ISSUES OR I WOULD CERTAINLY BE DEAD. MY MECHANIC SAID IT IS NOT WORTH IT TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION BECAUSE IT WILL ONLY FAIL AGAIN AND AGAIN. I HAVE BEEN ADVISED TO GET RID OF THE VEHICLE AND PURCHASE A NEW ONE, IT SEEMS NISSAN'S CVT TRANSMISSIONS HAVE HAD A LOT OF ISSUES THAT ARE WIDELY KNOWN. IT IS UNFORTUNATE THAT NISSAN IS ALLOWED TO CONTINUE SELLING LEMONS. MY VERY FIRST CAR WAS A 1981 MONTE CARLO AND THE TRANSMISSION ON THAT CAR NEVER HAD TO BE REPLACED, I USED THAT CAR UNTIL 2016 AND THE ONLY REASON I GOT RID OF IT WAS THAT THE FRAME BUCKLED IF THAT CAR CAN GO 35 YEARS WITH NO TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, THEN THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE FOR A 2012 TRANSMISSION TO FAIL IN 8 YEARS.

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR AT ALMOST ANY SPEED ABOVE 15MPH THE CAR HAS JERKY SHIFTING MOVEMENTS LIKE IT CAN'T FIND THE RIGHT GEAR. WHILE TRAVELLING AT A CONSTANT SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY THE RPMS CONTINUE TO FLUCTUATE. TOOK IT TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY SUGGESTED "VALVE BODY" REPLACEMENT. THAT COST AN ASTOUNDING $2100+ TO FIX. GOT IT BACK AND THE PROBLEM IS WORSE THAN BEFORE. CHECKED ONLINE AND TONS OF PEOPLE ARE REPORTING PROBLEMS WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS. THERE WAS EVEN A RECALL FOR THE PREVIOUS MODEL YEARS. NISSAN HAS NOT FIXED THE ISSUE AND CAR'S TRANSMISSION IS JUNK. I'M OUT BIG MONEY AND THEY ARE LIKELY TO RECOMMEND MORE "FIXES" FOR THE ISSUE.

Summary

WHEN SITTING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AT STOP LIGHTS, MY CAR WOULD AUTOMATICALLY TURN OFF CAUSING THE NEED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, TO WHICH POINT SOMETIMES IT WOULD TURN ON AND SOMETIMES IT WOULDN'T. THERE WERE ALSO TIMES THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL OR PULL BACK WHILE SLOWING DOWN AND SPEEDING UP IN TRAFFIC. I VISITED MIDAS TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED AND AFTER DIAGNOSIS, THEY ATTEMPTED TO SAVE THE TRANSMISSION BY REPLACING THE FLUID. THIS ATTEMPT WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL AND THEY DETERMINED THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A FAIRLY NEW CAR AND SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE. THERE IS A TRANSMISSION RECALL FOR A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT MODEL OF THE NISSAN VERSA 2012, BUT NOT THE NISSAN VERSA SL 2012. THIS SHOULD ALSO BE ON THE RECALL LIST.

Summary

THE CVT TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND GIVES UNEVEN ACCELERATION UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN MERGING INTO TRAFFIC OR TURNING INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO NISSAN NA & MANY LAWSUITS HAVE BEEN FILED OVER THE YEARS. THE FIRST TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AT 20,000 MILES & ANOTHER WAS JUST REPLACED AT 85,000 MILES. NISSAN KNOWS THAT THEY ARE PROVIDING AN INFERIOR PRODUCT, BASED ON THE # OF LAWSUITS IT HAS FACED OVER THE YEARS CONCERNING THE CVT. NOT ONLY IS THE PRODUCT UNRELIABLE, IT IS ALSO DANGEROUS TO THE DRIVER, THE VEHICLE'S OCCUPANTS AND ANYONE ELSE WHO MAY AFFECTED BY AN ACCIDENT CAUSED BY CVT FAILURE.

Summary

MY CAR HAD A R1709 RECALL. THIS WAS TO FIX THE AIRBAGS. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO HAD THE REPAIR DONE. THE WAITING TIME I WAS TOLD WOULD BE ABOUT 1 OR 2 HOURS. IT TOOK ABOUT 5 HOURS AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS BECAUSE A NEW INEXPERIENCED MECHANIC WAS WORKING ON IT. WHEN I GOT MY CAR BACK THE LIGHTS TELLING ME THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE AIRBAGS WERE STILL BLINKING. I HAD NO TIME TO GO BACK SINCE THEY HAD JUST WASTED ALL THE TIME I HAD. THE VERY NEXT DAY I REALIZED THAT NOW MY CAR'S HORN DOESN'T WORK EITHER. THIS WAS NEVER A PROBLEM BEFORE. I CALLED TO TELL THEM I BELIEVE THEY MAY HAVE MESSED UP THE WORK THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO DO. THEY SIMPLY TOLD ME THEY DID THE WORK THEY HAD TO AND THAT IF MY CAR HAS ADDITIONAL ISSUES IT'S NOT THEIR PROBLEM. I EVEN TOLD THEM I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT ALL THE CAR'S AIRBAGS ARE FAILING AT THE SAME TIME AND THAT NOW THE HORN DOESN'T MAKE ANY SOUND RIGHT AFTER I TOOK IT TO GET IT FIXED. I BELIEVE THEY DID THE WRONG WORK ON IT WHICH MIGHT EXPLAIN WHY THEY TOOK FAR LONGER THAN THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO. THEY GAVE ME NO SOLUTION SO I HAD TO MAKE A CASE WITH NISSAN CORPORATE. THE ONLY SOLUTION I WAS GIVEN BY CORPORATE WAS TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE SAME REPAIR SHOP AND THEY WILL CHECK IT, HOWEVER I WILL BE CHARGED FOR THIS, UNLESS THEY FIND IT WAS THEIR ERROR. I THINK ITS PRETTY OBVIOUS WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO SAY, SO THERE IS NO WAY I CAN TAKE IT BACK TO THE SAME PLACE THAT POSSIBLY SCREWED UP IN THE FIRST PLACE SO THEY CAN CHARGE ME TO TELL ME THEY DID A FINE JOB. WHAT I NEED IS SOMEONE TO CHECK MY CAR TO SEE IF THEY DID THE JOB THEY WERE ACTUALLY SUPPOSED TO DO AND NOT GET CHARGED FOR IT.

Summary

THE DRIVERS SIDE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE DOES NOT OPEN DOOR. IN ORDER TO OPEN DOOR TO EXIT CAR AT ALL (MUCH LESS IN AN EMERGENCY) YOU MUST FIRST KEEP CAR RUNNING, THEN ENGAGE POWER DOOR LOCK TO THE UNLOCK POSITION, THEN ROLL DOWN POWER WINDOW ALL THE WAY IN ORDER TO REACH THE EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE AND PULL OUT AWAY FROM THE CAR. NOTE: THE CAR HAD APPROXIMATELY 59000 MILES ON IT. WHEN NOTIFIED IN MID JUNE 2019, NISSAN CUSTOMER 'ADVOCATE' INSTRUCTED ME TO BRING THE PROBLEM TO CHULA VISTA, CA. DEALER TO VERIFY THE ISSUE, DOCUMENT IT THEN CONTACT THEM WITH THE RESULT. WHEN I DID SO AND EXPLAINED THE SAFETY ISSUE AND THAT I WAS INSTRUCTED TO GO THERE BY NISSAN THE SERVICE MANAGER THERE SAID I'D BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING A $175 'DIAGNOSTIC FEE' SINCE THEY CLAIMED THEY NEEDED TO TAKE OFF THE DOOR PANEL IN ORDER TO ESTIMATE A COST TO REPAIR. WHEN I EXPLAINED THAT I WAS THERE AT THE BEHEST OF NISSAN HE INSISTED I STILL WOULD BE REQUIRED TO PAY THE FEE BUT IN THIS CASE HE WOULD AUTHORIZE IT TO BE CREDITED TOWARD THE ACTUAL COST OF REPAIR SHOULD I CHOOSE TO GO FORWARD WITH THE REPAIR. I WAS AND AM STILL NOT ABLE TO DO SO.. AFTER SEVERAL UNRESPONSIVE ATTEMPTS TO RELAY ALL THIS TO NISSAN I BELIEVE SOME GOVERNMENT ACTION SHOULD BE TAKEN TO FORCE THEM TO TAKE THIS SAFETY ISSUE SERIOUSLY ENOUGH TO PREVENT ANY FORESEEABLE TRAGEDIES.

BOTH FRONT COIL SPRINGS SNAPPED WHILE BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED FOR 1 WEEK. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM.(RECALL #15V573000) THIS RECALL WAS EXPANDED IN 2017 (RECALL # 17V637000) THE RECALL IS FOR CARS SOLD IN NEW YORK STATE, HOWEVER EVEN THOUGH MY VEHICLE WAS SOLD IN NEW YORK STATE, MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE RECALL IS FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF ROAD SALT CORRODING THE SPRINGS, CAUSING THEM TO BREAK. THIS CAR IS DRIVEN IN UPSTATE NEW YORK AND THIS IS LIKELY THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM ON MY VEHICLE. I WOULD REQUEST THAT THIS RECALL BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE VEHICLES MANUFACTURED AT THE SAME TIME AS MY VEHICLE AND SOLD IN NEW YORK STATE.

NHTSA RECALL 17V-637 - HAS ALREADY BEEN ISSUED FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE. MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING THIS CAR IN THE SNOW IN WILKES-BARRE, PA AND MADE A RIGHT HAND TURN IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD (APPROX 15 MPH), FELT A JOLT ON THE RIGHT SIDE FRONT WHEEL, THEN THE STEERING BECAME VERY DIFFICULT. SHE TOOK THE CAR TO A MECHANIC IN WILKES-BARRE, PA (WHERE SHE HAS BEEN IN COLLEGE FOR THE LAST 2.5 YEARS) AND WAS TOLD THAT BOTH FRONT COIL SPRING HAD RUPTURED IN HER 2012 NISSAN VERSA HATCHBACK. WE HAVE SINCE DISCOVERED THAT THIS EXACT ISSUE ON THIS EXACT VEHICLE IS DAMAGING AND DANGEROUS ENOUGH TO ISSUE THE RECALL REFERRED TO ABOVE. I PROCEEDED TO COMPLETE THE "NISSAN VERSA MODEL YEAR 2012 HATCHBACK FRONT COIL SPRING SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN FORM" WITH ALL THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTATION AND SENT IT TO NISSAN AMERICA. I WAS CONTACTED AND TOLD THAT MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I REPEATED THE VIN AND THEY ASSURED ME THAT THIS PARTICULAR CAR WAS NOT COVERED IN THIS SAFETY RECALL. I HOPE TO GAIN AT LEAST PARTIAL RELIEF OF THIS $913.54 REPAIR OF A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE IN THIS CAR. I HAVE ATTACHED THE CLAIM FORM AND DOCUMENTATION FOR YOUR REVIEW. I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR FROM YOU ABOUT HOW TO PROCEED.

Summary

FOR A 2012 NISSAN VERSA SEDAN AUTOMATIC. THE CVT TRANSMISSION STARTED OUT 6 MONTHS AGO SOMETIMES NOT SHIFTING UP TO HIGHER GEARS WHEN I WAS DRIVING. VERY SHORTLY AFTER THE TRANSMISSION JUST WOULDN'T ENGAGE AT ALL. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION WITHOUT EVEN A DIAGNOSTICS TEST AND IMMEDIATELY TRIED TO SELL ME A NEW CAR. AFTER THAT I WENT TO CERTIFIED TRANSMISSION AND PAID FOR THEM TO TEST IT AND THEY ALSO SAID I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION AND THAT THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE CVT. I THEN WENT SOMEWHERE ELSE AND BOUGHT A DIFFERENT CAR AND HAVE ONLY DRIVEN THE NISSAN VERSA A HANDFUL OF TIMES SINCE UNTIL I COULD GET A NEW TRANSMISSION. NOW THE TRANSMISSION NEVER SHIFTS UP WHILE DRIVING AND TODAY I WAS DRIVING IT TO GET A NEW TRANSMISSION AND IT WON'T ACCELERATE OR ENGAGE THE TRANSMISSION AT ALL, IT HAS TO BE TOWED. THE TRANSMISSION WILL BE REPLACED WITH A BRAND NEW ONE.

Summary

2012 NISSAN VERSA HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. MY MOTHER AND FATHER WERE DRIVING MY VEHICLE AND THE CAR KEPT JERKING LAGGED WHEN CHANGING GEAR. MY MOTHER WAS SCARED BECAUSE SHE DIDN'T KNOW IF THE CAR WAS GOING TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY OR JERK WHEN SHE PRESSED THE GAS. NISSAN IS WELL AWARE THAT IT'S CARS HAVE ISSUES AND THEY HAVE EXTENDED WARRANTIES BECAUSE OF A LAWSUIT ON SOME VEHICLES BEFORE 2012 BUT HAVE NOT EXTENDED IT FOR MORE RECENT VEHICLES WHICH ARE HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST NISSAN REGARDING THIS AND I HAVE RECENTLY JOINED THAT LAWSUIT.

WHILE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AT A RED LIGHT, WHEN IT TURNED GREEN WENT TO PRESS THE ACCELERATOR AND MY 2012 NISSAN VERSA WITH 37000 MILES DID NOT GO FORWARD. THANK GOD I WAS NOT ON A HILL SO MY CAR WENT SLOWLY FORWARD. HAD TO GET THE CAR TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED MY CAR. A DAY LATER I GET A CALL SAYING THAT MY TRANSMISSION IS DONE AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. REPLACED UNDER 37K MILES! PRIOR TO THIS WHEN I WENT TO GET AN ENGINE DIAGNOSIS I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL RECALLS AND UPDATES THAT NEEDED TO BE PERFORMED ON MY CAR. SO BEING WORRIED THAT SOMETHING MIGHT BE WRONG WITH MY CAR I ASKED THE MECHANIC TO THOUROUGHLY CHECK MY VEHICLE. WITH A BILL OF 2500.00 PAID IN APRIL 2018 THREE MONTHS LATER MY MUFFLER BREAKS APART 400.00 REPAIR AND A MONTH AND A HALF AFTER THAT IN SEPT MY TRANSMISSION IS COMPLETELY SHOT AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. WHILE DOING RESEARCH I NOTICED THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AFTER THAT MANDATORY UPDATE.

I WAS REAR-ENDED ON THE FREEWAY WHEN I WAS AT A FULL STOP BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC AND A DRIVER BEHIND IMPACTED ME AT HER FULL FREEWAY SPEED BECAUSE SHE DIDN'T NOTICE THE TRAFFIC HAD COME TO A FULL STOP. I WAS WHIPLASHED SEVERAL TIMES, HIT MY FOREHEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL VERY HARD A COUPLE OF TIMES BUT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THERE IS A LAWYER ON THE ACCIDENT CASE BUT NO ONE AT NISSAN BELIEVED ME WHEN THE AIRBAGS FAILED TO DELPOY- I WAS TOLD THE ACCIDENT MAY NOT HAVE BEEN A STRONG ENOUGH IMPACT BUT AGAIN THE DRIVER REAR ENDED ME AT FREEWAY SPEED (65MPH MIN.) AND I AND THE REST OF TRAFFIC COME TO A COMPLETE FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES. THE ONLY OTHER THING I NOTICED AND I NOTIFIED NISSAN ABOUT WAS THE PASSENGER SEAT WAS NOT REGISTERING THAT A PASSENGER WAS IN THE SEAT; THE DISPLAY SHOWED THAT THE PASSENGER WAS NOT WEARING A SEAT BELT BUT THAT WAS NOT THE CASE.

TAKATA RECALL NISSAN DEALERSHIP OF MY LOCATION STATES THAT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE TO FIX THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL UNTIL SPRING 2018, AND THAT THE VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN. THE DEALERSHIP ALSO STATES THAT RENTALS WILL BE PROVIDED TO THOSE WHO ARE AFFECTED BY SAID RECALL; WHILE THIS WOULD BE FINE, IT HAS BEEN OVER 6 MONTHS WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACQUIRE SAID RENTAL IN WHICH THE DEALERSHIP HAS FAILED TO PROVIDE SUCH INDIVIDUALS WITH REPLACEMENTS. I ATTEMPT TO CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP EVERY 3-4 DAYS, IN WHICH I AM CONSISTENTLY TOLD THAT NO RENTALS ARE AVAILABLE; AND "WE NORMALLY RECEIVE MORE AT THE BEGINNING AND END OF BUSINESS HOURS." IF ATTEMPTING TO CALL AT SAID TIMES, THE SAME ANSWER IS GIVEN. THE DEALERSHIP HAS OFFERED TO TAKE MY CONTACT INFORMATION TO INFORM ME WHEN RENTALS ARE AVAILABLE; AND I HAVE WAITED OVER ONE MONTH WITH NO CALL BACK; I HAVE SINCE STARTED PESTERING THEM ONCE MORE, WITH NOTHING TO SHOW FOR IT. I WON'T ASSUME THAT THE DEALERSHIP IS HOLDING OUT ON GIVING TAKATA RECALLED VEHICLE OWNER'S RENTALS AS THEY WOULD RECEIVE NO CURRENCY IN EXCHANGE FOR SUCH; BUT I AM APPALLED THAT ANY CORPORATION WOULD ALLOW INDIVIDUALS TO OPERATE POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS VEHICLES FOR OVER SIX MONTHS WHILE TREATING SAID INDIVIDUALS WITH DISREGARD. WHILE I HAVE LIMITED THE USAGE OF MY VEHICLE TO THE MINIMUM, ONLY UTILIZING IT IN NECESSARY PREDICAMENTS SUCH AS WORK TRANSPORT; I KNOW NOT AT WHAT RISK MYSELF AND MANY OTHERS NEAR ME FACE EACH TIME WE DRIVE DUE TO THE INCOMPETENCE OF THE DEALERSHIPS NEAR MY LOCATION.

TAKATA RECALL, WE RECENTLY WERE TOLD ABOUT THE RECALL ON OUR NEW/ USED NISSAN VERSA. WE HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED THE PARTRS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL 2018 IN THE SPRING. ALSO WE WERE NOTIFIED THAT A RENTAL WAS AVAILABLE FREE OF CHAARGE FROM A GOVERNMENT LETTER. YET FRED MARTIN NISSAN TOLD US NO SUCH THING WAS AVAILABLE. THEN MY HUSBAND CALLED THEY SAID THERE WAS A RENTAL AVAILABLE BUT THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO LEAVE OUR CAR WITH THEM UNTIL SPRING TO BE FIXED AND THAT THERE WAS A MILLAGE LIMIT THAT WE COULD NOT PASS OR WE WOULD BE CHARGED. THISS IS RIDICULOUS I WOULD NEVER LEAVE MY CAR THAT I STILL OWE TEN GRAND ON AND TRUST THAT IT WOULD BE SAFE FOR MONTHS IN THERE PARKING LOT. SO WE ARE STUCKING DRIVING THE CAR WITH OUR KIDS KNOWING THAT WE COULD GET SEVERLY INJURED BECAUSE OF SOMETHING A COMPANY DID. IT IS SO WRONG THAT THEY ARE MAKING PEOPLE DRIVE THESE CARS STILL KNOWING THAT WE COULD BE HURT AND NOT GIVING US A REALISTIC OPTION TO GET OUR CAR FIXED IN A TIMELY MANNER.

TAKATA RECALL - RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF AIRBAG RECALL AND AM TOLD THAT GETTING LONG TERM RENTAL CAR IS THE BEST OPTION AS THE "FIX" IS NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL SPRING 2018. THIS IS NOT A GOOD OPTION HOWEVER AS YOU HAVE TO PAY THE LONG TERM RENTAL INSURANCE RATE OF OVER 11/DAY. THAT'S MORE THAN 300/MONTH! THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR COSTS SUCH AS THESE ON A LIFE AND DEATH SAFETY RECALL. BEST SCENARIO IS THAT THEY JUST EVEN TRADE ALL THE CARS FOR COMPARABLE SAFE VEHICLES AS THE PASSENGER AIR BAGS WERE JUST RECALLED THIS YEAR AS WELL. OBVIOUSLY NOT A SAFE OR WELL BUILT VEHICLE. NO HELP FROM EITHER THE DEALER OR NISSAN DIRECT. THEY ARE UNWILLING TO HELP IN ANYWAY AND JUST SAY THAT THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE NEXT SPRING.

HOW ARE THEY ALLOWED TO GET AWAY WITH NOT PROVIDING A REMEDY IN A TIMELY MANNER. AND NOW ANOTHER RECALL (NO. 17V-449) SAYS THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE A PART TO REPAIR THE DEFECT (TAKATA AIR BAG INFLATOR RUPTURE). THE FIRST RECALL SAYS THE DEFECT COULD RESULT IN DAMAGES THAT COULD RESULT IN A CRASH AND THE AIR BAG DEPLOYING COULD RESULT IN DEATH. WHAT OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE WHEN YOU CAN'T TRADE IN THE CAR? ALSO, I'M NOT ALLOWED TO TAKE PART IN THE CLASS ACTION BECAUSE I HAVEN'T TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR YET (BECAUSE I CAN'T). NOW I'M VERY ANXIOUS EVERY TIME I GET BEHIND THE WHEEL OF MY CAR.

TAKATA RECALL I'M NOT SURE WHAT IS CONSIDERED A "TIMELY MANNER" FOR THIS REPAIR. I RECEIVED NOTICE FROM NISSAN IN AUGUST TELLING ME TO NOT CALL THE LOCAL DEALER AND TO WAIT FOR NISSAN TO CONTACT ME WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. TODAY I GET A LEGAL NOTICE IN THE MAIL REGARDING THE TAKATA CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY HEARINGS AND TOLD TO CONTACT A LOCAL DEALERSHIP. EDWARDS NISSAN OF COUNCIL BLUFFS, IA TOLD ME THEY WILL NOT HAVE PARTS UNTIL AT LEAST EARLY SPRING 2018 AND THEY WOULD PUT ME ON THE LIST OF PEOPLE TO CONTACT WHEN PARTS BECAME AVAILABLE. I GUESS TO ME, THAT IS NOT VERY TIMELY. THAT IS AN "ESTIMATE" OF WHEN THEY "THINK" THEY CAN FIX IT. I'D ALSO LIKE TO KNOW IF THIS RECALL IS SUPPOSED TO INCLUDE JUST THE DRIVER SIDE BAG OR IF IT IS SUPPOSED TO INCLUDE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO ME TO MAKE ME TAKE IT IN TWICE IF MY VEHICLE HAS JUST NOT BEEN RELEASED AS SEARCHABLE REGARDING THE PASSENGER BAG.

2012 NISSA VERSA HATCHBACK. FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE SUSPENSION SPRING BROKE SUNDAY, APRIL 16TH, 2017. VEHICLE'S ODOMETER WAS JUST OVER 56,000 MILES AT THE TIME. TRAVELLING FOR THE WEEKEND, PUT ON ABOUT 70 MILES BEFORE IT BROKE. THE SPRING BROKE WHILE IN PARK. UNBEKNOWNST TO ME AT THE TIME, THIS SPRING WAS PART OF RECALL 15V573000. I HAD NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATION REGARDING THIS RECALL, SO I HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED AT A LOCAL SHOP. THEN, AFTER LATER LEARNING OF THE RECALL, I CONTACTED NISSAN MULTIPLE TIMES REQUESTING ANY FORM OF REIMBURSEMENT, EVEN PARTIAL REIMBURSEMENT. I WAS DENIED BECAUSE THE REPAIR WORK HAD NOT BEEN DONE BY THEM. THEY CLAIMED THEY WERE "NOT IN A POSITION" TO OFFER ANY TYPE OF REIMBURSEMENT.

Summary

THE PARTS WON'T BE MADE AVAILABLE FOR MONTHS. THE NISSAN NORTH AMERICA NOTICE STATES THAT A COMPLIMENTARY LOANER VEHICLE WILL BE PROVIDED UPON REQUEST. SOME DEALERSHIPS HONOR THIS, OTHER DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT. GETTING A LOANER VEHICLE FOR 6 MONTHS IS VERY DIFFICULT! NISSAN NORTH AMERICA NEEDS TO BE MORE PROACTIVE IN ORDER TO ENSURE SAFETY BY INFORMING THEIR SITES TO OFFER LOANERS AND MAKING LOANERS AVAILABLE. I WAS TOLD TO KEEP DRIVING MY CAR AS THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO FOR ME AT NISSAN OF ST. CHARLES, IN ST. CHARLES, IL WHILE MCGRATH NISSAN IN ELGIN IL SAID THAT THEY ARE TAKING A LIST OF PEOPLE THAT WANT LOANER VEHICLES WHILE THEY AWAIT THE AVAILABILITY OF LOANERS. THAT THERE IS NO DANGER OF RANDOM DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG AND IT IS ONLY IF YOU GET IN A FRONT END ACCIDENT. THEY SAID NISSAN HAS OFFERED AN ADDED SAFETY IN THAT THEY PROVIDE A LOANER, BUT THIS INFORMATION WAS ONLY GIVEN AFTER I PUSHED THE ISSUE. IN KENOSHA WI, THEY ARE STATING THAT THE AIRBAG CAN RANDOMLY DEPLOY AND IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN AT ALL. KENOSHA WI SAID THAT SOME VEHICLES WENT DOWN A PRODUCTION LINE THAT HAD THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS WHILE OTHER VEHICLES GOT A DIFFERENT AIRBAG. MY MOTHER ALSO DRIVES A VERSA AND WAS TOLD THAT HER'S DID NOT HAVE THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG EVEN THOUGH SHE RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE. NISSAN ST. CHARLES SAID THAT IF YOU RECEIVED THE NOTICE, YOU HAVE THE DEFECTIVE PART. WHY IS THERE SO MUCH CONFLICTING INFORMATION????

WE WILL GET THE REPAIR DONE & THERE IS AN OPTION FOR GETTING A LOANER CAR, BUT FOR 9 MONTHS, OUR SON & OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS HAVE BEEN DRIVING THIS CAR, NOT KNOWING THAT THE DRIVER SIDE WAS JUST AS DANGEROUS AS THE PASSENGER SIDE. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW NISSAN (NHTSA) COULD NOT CONFIRM THE SAME ISSUE ON BOTH FRONT AIRBAGS & NOTIFY US OF THE DANGER BACK IN JAN 2017. WE HAVE NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT IN THIS CAR, BUT THE FACT THAT 9 MONTHS LATER WE ARE FINDING OUT THAT OUR SON, AND OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS, SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN DRIVING THIS CAR AT ALL IS SHOCKING AND HORRIFYING.

WHEN I HAVE MORE THAN 1 PASSENGER IN THE VEHICLE THE VEHICLE HESITATES; THE ENGINE REVS BUT THE CAR DOES NOT MOVE.

THIS COST MORE THAN $3,000 AND A 5 YEAR VEHICLE SHOULD NOT HAVE THE TRANSMISSION GO BAD, AND IT COULD HAVE KILLED US IF THE VEHICLES DIDN'T AVOID HITTING US ON THE ROAD WHEN IT STALLED.

Summary

VCT TRANSMISSION FAILURE, TRANSMISSION WILL FAIL WITH NO WARNING, THIS IS A DEADLY FLAW IN THE DESIGN OF THE TRANSMISSION, HUNDREDS COMPLAINTS ONLINE ATTEST TO THE NUMBER OF TRANSMISSION FAILURES IN DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. MY TRANSMISSION FAILED AT A BUSY INTERSECTION ON A MAJOR 4 LANE ROAD WE WERE ALMOST HIT BROADSIDE AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED THE OTHER DRIVER SWERVED TO MISS US AND I HAD TO PUSH THE CAR OUT OF TRAFFIC. THIS IS A POTENTIAL DEADLY CONDITION. I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN WAITING ON TRAFFIC WHEN TRAFFIC CLEARED I HIT THE ACCELERATOR THE CAR HESITATED AND SURGED ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND STOPPED IN THE TRAFFIC LANE WITH 65/70 MPH TRAFFIC COMING AT US. THE FIRST CAR SWERVED TO THE DITCH SIDE AND MISSED US THE REST OF THE TRAFFIC SAW WHAT HAPPENED AND STOPPED AND WENT AROUND. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSIONS IN NISSAN VEHICLES ESPECIALLY WITH THE VCT TRANSMISSION. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS EVEN DEADLY PROBLEM THAT HAS PLAGUED NISSAN FOR SEVERAL YEARS, THEY HAVE RECALLED SEVERAL MAKES OF NISSAN FOR TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS BUT REFUSE TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY ISSUE AND REFUSE TO CORRECT THE FAULTY TRANSMISSION PROBLEM, THIS PROBLEM IS POTENTIALLY AS BAD AS THE PINTO FIRES, HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE DIED IN A CVT NISSAN THAT WE DO NOT KNOW ABOUT MY WIFE AND I WERE JUST YARDS FROM DEATH BECAUSE OF THIS TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND NISSAN NEEDS TO BE REMEDY THE SITUATION.

I CANNOT GET DEFINITIVE INFORMATION FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND MY LETTER OF COMPLAINT TO NHTSA DATED 5/30/17 HAS NOT BEEN ACKNOWLEDGED OR ANSWERED. I AM QUITE UPSET AT THE PROSPECT OF MYSELF AND/OR A PASSENGER BEING KILLED OR INJURED BY FLYING SHRAPNEL IF MY SENSORS DESIGNED WITH INCOMPATIBLE METALS ARE COMPROMISED. I AM EVEN MORE UPSET THAT I AM FORCED TO DRIVE THIS TIMEBOMB AND THAT I AM UNABLE TO FIND OUT WHEN THIS HORRIBLE SITUATION WILL BE RECTIFIED. THE WHOLE PROCESS IS UNSETTLING, DISGUSTING, AND FRUSTRATING ESPECIALLY SINCE I AM FORCED TO FEEL STRESSED EVERY TIME I DRIVE AND EVERY TIME I TRY TO GET INFORMATION LET ALONE REPAIR. WHO CARES?

Summary

UPON STARTING VEHICLE ONE DAY IN MAY 2017, AIRBAG ALERT BEGAN TO FLASH WHILE DRIVING. AFTER LOOKING INTO CURRENT RECALLS USING THE VIN, I LEARNED OF AN AIRBAG RECALL THAT APPLIED TO MY VEHICLE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO AN AUTHORIZED NISSAN SERVICE CENTER TO HAVE THE AIRBAG ISSUE CORRECTED. I PICKED UP MY VEHICLE AND WAS TOLD THAT THE AIRBAG RECALL ISSUE HAD BEEN SERVICED. AFTER DRIVING OFF THE NISSAN SERVICE LIGHT I NOTICED THE AIRBAG SENSOR STILL FLASHING SO DROVE BACK TO ASK ABOUT THE ALERT. I WAS THEN TOLD THAT I DIDN'T HAVE FUNCTIONING AIRBAGS, IF I GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT THEY WOULD NOT DEPLOY. ONLY BECAUSE I RETURNED AND QUESTIONED THE SERVICE TEAM, DID I FIND OUT THAT THIS AIRBAG ISSUE WAS STILL PRESENT. THE NISSAN SERVICE TEAM DENIED RESPONSIBILITY OF FIXING THE ISSUE OR EVEN LOOKING INTO IT TO SEE IF IT MAY BE RELATED TO THE AIRBAG DEFECT. SINCE MALFUNCTIONING AIRBAGS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH, I THINK THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. THE NISSAN SERVICE TEAM COMPLETELY NEGLECTED TO INFORM ME OF NONFUNCTIONAL AIRBAGS BEFORE RETURNING MY VEHICLE TO ME AND I FIND THIS ISSUE VERY ALARMING.

ON TUESDAY, MAY 23, 2017, I WAS DRIVING ON US 95 NORTHBOUND IN LAS VEGAS. IT WAS AROUND 5:30 PM, SO RUSH-HOUR. TRAFFIC WAS BUMPER TO BUMPER. I WAS IN THE FAR LEFT LANE NOT EVEN GOING 15 MPH. TRAFFIC HAD STARTED TO MOVE AND AS I HIT THE CAR I NOTICED MY CAR HAD NO POWER AND MY CAR HAD DIED! A BUNCH OF LIGHTS CAME ON MY DASHBOARD BUT THE CAR WAS NOT OVERHEATING. I COASTED OVER TO THE LEFT EMERGENCY LANE. I SHUT THE CAR OFF, WAITED ABOUT 5 MIN AND TURNED THE CAR BACK ON. ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD WENT OFF AND THE CAR DID NOT SHOW THAT IT WAS OVERHEATING. I BEGAN TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE AND HAD NO OTHER PROBLEMS FROM THERE. BUT MY CAR SHOULDN'T JUST DIE IN TRAFFIC! I'M GLAD TRAFFIC WAS BUMPER TO BUMPER AND NOT CRAZY! IF MY CAR HAD DIED WHILE GOING FASTER I MAY HAVE BEEN HIT.

AFTER BEING ON THE FREEWAY FOR A ABOUT AN HOUR, I FINALLY TOOK AN EXIT AND STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN I PROCEEDED TO ACCELERATE AT A GREEN LIGHT, THE VEHICLE DID NOT ACCELERATE EVEN AFTER PRESSING ALL THE WAY DOWN ON THE GAS, BUT AFTER ABOUT GEN SECONDS IT SPEEDED UP VERY RAPIDLY AND I QUICKLY HAD TO PRESS ON THE BRAKE IN ORDER TO AVOID CRASHING INTO A VEHICLE IN FRONT. IT CONTINUED TO DO THIS AT ANY STOPS I MADE UNTIL I ARRIVED HOME. THE NEXT DAY I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE MECHANIC, AS THERE WAS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THAT ALERTED ME OF ANY ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE. AGAIN I FELT THE VEHICLE TAKE A BIT TO ACCELERATE AFTER COMING TO A STOP BUT IT WAS NOT LIKE THE NIGHT BEFORE, IT WAS DRIVE ABLE. AFTER LEAVING IT AT THE SHOP THEY LET ME KNOW THAT THE TRANSMISSION ON THE VEHICLE WAS THE PROBLEM, IT HAD TO BE REPLACED. A $4000 REPLACEMENT ON A 5 YEAR OLD VEHICLE WITH ONLY 103000 MILES. I DECIDED TO DRIVE BACK HOME AND AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES, I WAS ON A BUSY STREET AND THE CAR BEGAN TO JERK. IT WOULD ACCELERATE, DECELERATE, THEN ACCELERATE AGAIN. I TURNED ON MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS TO ALARM VEHICLES BEHIND ME TO PROCEED WITH CAUTION, AS MY CAR WOULD DECELERATE OUT OF NOWHERE. AGAIN THE BIGGEST ISSUE WAS THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANY OTHER LIGHT DID NOT TURN ON. IT WASN'T UNTIL I GOT HOME THAT THE LIGHT FINALLY CAME ON. THE CVT TRANSMISSION IN THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE, AND THE FACT THAT DRIVERS DON'T GET ANY SORT OF ALERT AS TO A PROBLEM WITH THEIR VEHICLE IS UNSAFE. PHYSICALLY MY VEHICLE IS NOT DAMAGED, BUT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT THESE TRANSMISSIONS FAIL IN THE MIDDLE OF A STREET.

CVT TRANSMISSION. CAR WAS IN MOTION, COULD NOT ACCELERATE FROM STOPPED AT RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. TOOK TO NISSAN IN GAINESVILLE FL...TOLD IT NEEDED NEW TRANSMISSION, QUOTED OVER 3500.00. CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND PUTS OCCUPANTS AT RISK FOR REAR END COLLISIONS. CAR HAS LESS THAN 110K. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE FOR THIS SERIOUS ISSUE TO BE TAKING PLACE. HAD CVT FLUSHED AND REPROGRAMMED PRIOR (DEC 2016). AND NOW THIS ISSUE IS HAPPENING. I HAVE READ MANY FORUMS AND COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS CVT NONSENSE AND EVIDENTLY SAFETY IS NOT A PRIORI FOR NISSAN. BOUGHT CAR NEW AND HAVE BEEN THE ONLY OWNER....HAVE HAD OTHER MINOR ISSUES FIXED WHEN THEY HAPPENED, BUT A TRANSMISSION THAT IS FAULTY IS UNACCEPTABLE. WROTE A FORMAL COMPLAINT TO NISSAN HEADQUARTERS AND HAVE YET TO RECEIVE A RESPONSE ON WHAT THEY INTEND TO DO ABOUT THE ISSUE...ITS FAULTY. THIS CORPORATION SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND LIABLE FOR NEGLECT ON THEIR PART. YOU DON'T JEOPARDIZE THE SAFETY OF YOUR CONSUMERS IN THIS MANNER. NEEDLESS TO SAY IT HAS TO BE FIXED NEXT WEEK. UNDERSTAND PEOPLE HAVE LIVELIHOODS AND JOBS....YOU EXPECT WHEN YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR VEHICLE, THAT IT WOULD LAST A LOT LONGER THAN 110K...THAT'S LOW MILEAGE BY TODAY'S STANDARDS. MY SON WAS IN TRAFFIC WHEN THIS HAPPENED AND WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT BEING SLAMMED FROM THE REAR.

Summary

I HAD THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS A RECALL THAT WAS SUPPOSEDLY SOLVED 11 DAYS BEFORE MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED. MY CAR HAS BEEN ON THE ROAD FOR LESS THAN 5 YEARS (IT WILL BE 5 YEARS THIS DECEMBER) AND IS STILL UNDER 60,000 MILES (IT HAS ABOUT 52,000). BOTH OF THE FRONT SPRINGS RECENTLY BROKE, AND I AM FROM ONE OF THE STATES WHO ISSUED A RECALL FOR NISSAN VERSAS MANUFACTURED FROM 2006- NOVEMBER 11, 2012 (MINE WAS MANUFACTURED ON NOVEMBER 23, 2012). THIS TYPE OF ISSUE CANNOT BE CAUSED BY USER ERROR, AND THE RECALL THAT DOES NOT COVER MY VEHICLE SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED THAT THE FRONT SPRINGS COULD BE CORRODED BY SALT ON THE ROAD FOR THINGS LIKE SNOW- SOMETHING THAT IS A BIG ISSUE IN MY STATE. I BELIEVE THAT THE SPRINGS SHOULD BE COVERED AND/OR RECALLED AT LESS THAN 5 YEARS OR 60,000 MILES, ESPECIALLY SO SOON AFTER THEY ALLEGEDLY FIXED/CHANGED THE PART OUTLINED IN THE RECALL. I STARTED HEARING CLUNKING NOISES THAT INCREASED OVER THE COURSE OF A WEEK IN SOUND AND FREQUENCY, ONLY WHEN I TURNED MY WHEEL FAR (IN EITHER DIRECTION) WHETHER STATIONARY OR IN MOTION, REGARDLESS OF SPEED.

I BOUGHT RECENTLY 2012 NISSAN VERSA CAR WITH THEIR CVT TRANSMISSION. NOT EVEN AFTER 6 MONTHS OF USING THE CAR, IT COMPLETELY WENT OUT. THE DEALERSHIP OFFERED TO REPLACE IT FOR $4300, WHICH IS ABOUT THE SAME AS MARKET VALUE OF THE CAR. AFTER READING MORE ONLINE, I FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS REALLY COMMON ISSUE AND THIS TRANSMISSIONS GO OUT VERY OFTEN. ON TOP OF THAT THEY CAN'T BE REBUILD. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THEIR FAULTY TRANSMISSIONS AND THEY HAD RECALLS ON DIFFERENT MODELS, BUT ARE STILL AVOIDING ON THIS ONE. THEY ALSO HAVE SOME SOFTWARE ISSUE, THAT CAN CAUSE PROBLEMS WITH PRESSURE WHEN CHANGING GEARS BETWEEN D AND L. WE WERE ABOUT TO GET THE ADVISED UPDATED LAST SATURDAY, UNFORTUNATELY THE CAR DIDN'T MAKE IT. THE OFFICIAL LETTER STATES THAT IT COULD LOWER THE DURABILITY OF THE TRANSMISSION, THEY DIDN'T WANT TO ADMIT IT ON THE PHONE. MY CASE WAS EVALUATED BY SUMMER, FROM HQ AND GOT NOTIFIED BY HER THAT NISSAN, WON'T HELP IN ANY WAY.

WE HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY TOLD US THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE CAR HAS ABOUT 72,000 MILES AND THE WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 60,000. THEY SAID SOME KIND OF SENSOR FAILED. THIS WAS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR SINCE THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED. IT SEEMS REALLY DANGEROUS FOR A VEHICLE SENSOR TO DISABLE THE VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY ON THE INTERSTATE. I FEEL LIKE NISSAN SHOULD HAVE FIXED THIS PROBLEM FOR US EVEN THOUGH IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. *TR

WHEN I WAS BUYING THIS CAR FROM MCCULSKEY USED I QUESTIONED THE TRANSMISSION. ASKED THAT THEY PUT THIS IN WRITING. THEY REFUSED AND STATED THAT IT WAS FINE. THE TRANSMISSION AT THE TIME WAS A DEAD SPOT WHERE TRANS DID NOT SHIFT. AS TIME HAS PASSED, THE TRANSMISSION HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE UNTIL I COULD NOT TAKE IT. THE TRANSMISSION AT 25 MPH AND 45 MPH WENT IN TO SEIZURES. ALMOST LIKE A NEW DRIVER OF A STANDARD SHIFT. THEN THE POWER WOULD SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SERVICE. BECAUSE THEY WOULD KNOW BETTER THAN ANYONE. HOW EVER THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY TRANSMISSION. THEY WERE ABLE TO FIX THE POWER PROBLEM. NO RECALLS AVAILABLE. WHILE RESEARCHING MY CAR I FOUND THAT 2007-2010 TRANS HAVE BEEN RECALLED. I SPOKE TO NISSAN COMPANY TO MAKE A COMPLAINT. THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR ME. RECENTLY THE PS LIGHT IS COMING ON. THE POWER STEARING IS OUT WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON. WHEN YOU SHUT THE CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON THE POWER STEARING WORKS UNTIL THE LIGHT RETURNS. THE CAR IS NOW ALMOST NOT ABLE TO DRIVE DUE TO THE TRANS. I ONLY HAVE 84,000 MILES ON THIS CAR. IT IS ONLY 4 YEARS ONLY. I NEED SOMEONE TO HELP.

JUNE 4, 2016, WHILE DRIVING ALONG 118 E FREEWAY I AM SEEING THAT MY RPM IS GOING UP AND DOWN AND THE CAR IS JERKING SPEED. I MERGED TO 405 S IN ABOUT 5 MINS. I WAS GETTING OFF 405 S FREEWAY FROM RAMP. THEN TRAVELLING NORTH ALONG HASKELL AVE, MY 2012 NISSAN VERSA JUST STOPPED MAKING A RATTLING NOISE IN TRANSMISSION. ALL THE CARS BEHIND ME JUST STOPPED. I SLOWLY EASED THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET. TURNED OFF THE ENGINE THINKING THAT I'M DONE. AFTER SITTING FOR 2 MINUTES I TRIED TURNING IT ON AGAIN BECAUSE I HAVE TO PICK UP MY SON WAITING AT LAX FLYWAWAY ALONG GLORIA STREET. MYSTERIOUSLY THE CAR STARTED TO MOVE FORWARD AGAIN. I PICKED UP MY SON AND DROVE SLOWLY TO SIMI VALLEY CA STILL WITH MY RPM GOING UP AND DOWN AT TIMES. WE ARRIVED AT HOME IN SIMI VALLEY, CA OK. WE STOPPED USING THE CAR FOR A WEEK UNTIL I HAVE IT CHECKED BY NISSAN DEALER ON JUNE 14, 2016. THEY SAID THEY DID NOT SEE ANYTHING WRONG UPON TESTING. I HAD THEM SERVICE THE CVT TRANSMISSION. I TOOK THE CAR BACK FROM THE DEALER 06/15/2016. ON 6/20/2016, WHILE DRIVING TO CHURCH, WE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM WHERE THE TRANSMISSION STALLED. SAME AS BEFORE, RPM AT 0 AND WE HAVE STOP THE CAR AND SLOWLY PUSHED THE PEDAL AGAIN AND IT ENGAGED UNTIL WE PARKED AT THE PARKING LOT. COMING HOME FROM CHURCH, WE HAVE NO PROBLEM. MY WIFE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM THE DAY BEFORE. IT SEEMS THAT NISSAN KNOWS THIS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM BECAUSE OF SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FROM CAR OWNERS.

THE FOLLOWING DAY I BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TRYING TO EXPLAIN MY SITUATION. THE SERVICE TECH LOOKED AT THE CAR AND KEPT SAYING THAT THE TANK WAS FULL AND THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT EVEN THOUGH I EXPLAINED THAT I ADDED SOME TO GET IT THERE. THEY FINALLY TOOK MY CAR BACK AND HAD IT FOR 2 DAYS. WHEN I CAME DOWN TO PICK IT UP THAT SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. THEY SAID THEY PRESSURE TESTED THE COOLING SYSTEM AND FOUND NO LEEKS AND TOLD ME I WAS IMAGING THING AS FAR AS THE STUTTER WITH MY TRANNY. AT APPROXIMATELY 32K AGAIN I WAS LOW (1/4 FULL) ON COOLANT AND THE STUTTER STILLED HAPPENED INTERMITTINGLY. AGAIN I TOOK IT DOWN TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY HAD IT FOR ABOUT 2 DAYS AND WHEN I GOT IT BACK THEY TOLD ME THE SAME THING. AT APPROX. 38K THE STUTTERING HAD GOTTEN WORSE AND THERE WOULD BE TIMES THAT ID PRESS THE ACCELERATOR AND NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN FOR ABOUT 5-10 SECONDS. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE TRANNY ONLY THIS TIME. AND THEY TOLD ME WITH OUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR MY CAR EVEN THOUGH IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN A COUPE ACCIDENTS BECAUSE THE TRANNY WOULD NOT RESPOND WHILE PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR.

MY CAR HAS BEEN ACTING LIKE IT WOULDN'T SHIFT WHEN I ACCELERATE ON A HILL. IT JERKS AND THE RPMS SPIKE UP AND DOWN BUT NO INCREASE IN SPEED. MY MECHANIC IS TELLING ME THAT THIS IS AN ACCELERATOR CABLE ISSUE AND THAT PART IS OVER $700. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND MANY 2012 VERSAS WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE, SOME HAVE EVEN STALLED WHILE ON A HIGHWAY. WHY IS NISSAN NOT DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THIS? I TRIED TO PULL OUT AT A RED LIGHT AND EVEN THOUGH I DEPRESSED THE GAS PEDAL, MY CAR DID NOT MOVE, THE RPMS DID NOT CHANGE. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, I WAS ABLE TO GET IT OFF THE STREET INTO A PARKING LOT. A DAY LATER, IT DID IT AGAIN.

Summary

I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT THAT I PURCHASED A NISSAN VERSA ON APRIL 5, 2015. THE NIGHT I DROVE IT HOME I NOTICED A FEW PROBLEMS: FIRST: THE SEAT BELT LIGHT STAYS ON UNLESS BOTH FRONT SEATS ARE BUCKLED EVEN IF THE DRIVE IS THE ONLY PERSON IN THE VEHICLE. THIS IS CAUSE FOR THE VEHICLE TO NOT PASS STATE INSPECTION AND THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM IS TELLING ME THEY TOOK THE CAR TO TWO DIFFERENT NISSAN DEALERSHIPS AND THIS IS PROPER FUNCTION FOR THE NISSAN VERSA. THE MECHANIC FROM THE INSPECTION STATION AND I EACH CALLED NISSAN DEALERSHIPS AS WELL AND EACH OF THE DEALERSHIPS WE SPOKE WITH SAID THIS IS IN FACT INCORRECT AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. SECOND: THE CAR IS NOT ACCELERATING OR SHIFTING (ATLEAST THAT IS HOW I DESCRIBED IT). I TRIED TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC AND RPM'S MOVED WAY UP BUT THE CAR HESITATED TO MOVE FORWARD ONCE IT STARTED TO MOVE I HAD TO PUT ON THE BRAKES BECAUSE TRAFFIC WAS TOO CLOSE. I DROVE IT TO WEST VIRGINIA WITH MY YOUNG SONS IN TOW AND IT COULD NOT KEEP UP WITH THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC AND CONTINUED TO GET WORSE THE LONGER WE WERE ON THE ROAD OR ON AN INCLINE. THE SPEED LIMIT WAS 70 MPH ON INTERSTATE 70 AND IT TOOK A LONG TIME TO GET UP TO SPEED. WHEN THERE WAS AN INCLINE (WE WERE IN THE MOUNTAINS) THE RPM'S WOULD GO UP TO 4,000- 4,500 BUT THE CAR WOULD STAY AT 60 MPH AND LOSE SPEED. THE DEALERSHIP CALLED ME AND WAS VERY CONDESCENDING LETTING ME KNOW THEY COULD FIND NO PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR. THEY WILL NOT EVEN FIX THE SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT EVEN THOUGH I CAN NOT GET MY HARD TAGS FOR THE CAR.

Summary

THE EXTERIOR SIDE REAR VIEW MIRRORS ARE NOT WIDE ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO SEE MOST VEHICLES INCLUDING LARGE SUV'S ETC, IN THE LANES ON EITHER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS MAKES CHANGING LANES VERY DANGEROUS. I'VE NEARLY COLLIDED WITH VEHICLES ALONGSIDE ME A NUMBER OF TIMES TRYING TO CHANGE LANES. THIS WILL BE A CONSTANT PROBLEM UNTIL THE MIRRORS ARE REPLACED OR I REPLACE THE CAR WITH ANOTHER BRAND.THIS ISSUE HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR CAUSING ACCIDENTS AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. WHILE ALL CARS HAVE BLIND SPOTS, THE BLIND SPOTS FOR THIS CAR ARE ESPECIALLY SEVERE AND DANGEROUS DUE TO THE EXTERIOR SIDE REAR VIEW MIRRORS BEING TOO SMALL FOR VEHICLES TO BE SEEN IN. NISSAN IS SOMEWHAT AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE FOR THE 2015 MODEL YEAR, NISSAN HAS ENLARGED THESE EXTERIOR SIDE REARVIEW MIRRORS SO THAT VEHICLES IN LANES ALONGSIDE THE VERSA CAN NOW BE MORE EASILY BE SEEN WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I FEEL NISSAN SHOULD HAVE TO RECALL THE 2012-2014 VERSAS AND REPLACE THE EXISTING REVIEW EXTERIOR MIRRORS WITH THE LARGER MIRRORS THAT ARE NOW ON THE 2015-2016 VERSAS.

THERE WAS NO SPECIFIC INCIDENT THAT CAUSED THE HANDLE TO BREAK, AND THERE WAS NO UNUSUAL WEAR & TEAR THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE HANDLE TO BREAK. WE OPENED THE DOOR PANEL TO SEE IF WE COULD FIND OUT WHY THE HANDLE WASN'T WORKING. WE DISCOVERED THE CORD THAT CONNECTS TO THE HANDLE IS BROKEN.

Summary

WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP AT AN INTERSECTION THE VEHICLES WOULD NOT MOVE. YOU PRESS THE PEDAL AND IT DOES NOT THROTTLE UP OR MOVE AT ALL LEAVING US EXPOSED TO TRAFFIC. AFTER THE CAR SAT FOR 1 HOUR WE WERE ABLE TO DRIVE IT BUT THEN THE RPM BEGAN TO FLUCTUATE BETWEEN 2000 AND 4000 RPM AND YOU COULD FEEL THE VEHICLE SPEED UP AND SLOW DOWN WITHOUT ANY MOVEMENT OF THE THROTTLE. THIS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES SO WE TOOK IT TO A SHOP. THE DIAGNOSED THIS AS A BAD TRANSMISSION WHICH THEY STATED WAS COMMON ON FOR THIS TYPE OF CVT TRANSMISSION. I REVIEWED THE TRANSMISSION AND COMPLAINTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE NISSAN CVT BUILT BY JATCO AND QUALITY ISSUES EXIST. NISSAN EXTENDED THE WARRANTIES ON THE 2010 MODELS WHEN THE 2012 THROUGH 2015 MODELS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AND FAILURES POTENTIALLY LEAVING YOU STRANDED OR WORSE IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION ABOUT TO GET WHACKED BY A SEMI. NISSAN REFUSED TO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE STATING THAT THERE IS NO ISSUE. THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THAT LOGIC IS MR. GHOSN, CEO NNA, STATE IN DECEMBER 2013 THAT JATCO HAD SIGNIFICANT ISSUES WITH THEIR QUALITY OF PRODUCT. A PRODUCT THAT CAN LEAVE YOU OR YOUR CHILDREN IN A BAD WAY TRYING TO NAVIGATE TRAFFIC. SO MY POINT TO ALL OF THIS, NISSAN IS WELL AWARE OF THE ISSUES WITH THEIR CVT TRANSMISSION BUT REFUSE TO MAKE IT RIGHT

I TOOK THE CAR FOR A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION AND TWO MONTHS LATTER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE CAR WHEN DRIVING 60 MPH WILL JUST DECREASES IN SPEED UNTIL IT STOPS THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SHIP AND WAS TOLD THE SPEED SENSOR INSIDE THE TRANSMISSION WAS BAD. TO FIX THE PROBLEM THE TRANSMISSION MUST BE REPLACED. THE CAR HAS 78, 987 MILES ON IT, I WAS LOOKING ON LINE AND FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE CVT TRANSMISSION USED BY NISSAN. MOST COMPLAINTS SAID AFTER THE DEALER REPAIRED THE RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION IT FAILED. WHAT IS THE PROCESS OF FILING A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST NISSAN MOTOR CORPORATION?

I HAD THE 60,000 SERVICE DONE ON THIS CAR AT MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP ON DEC 14, 2015. PART OF THAT SERVICE INVOLVED INSPECTING THE CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION FLUID. APPARENTLY IT WAS OK. SIX DAYS LATER MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING IT TO NEW ORLEANS AND IT STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE. LUCKILY, NOBODY WAS CLOSE BEHIND HER AND SHE WAS ABLE TO DRIFT IT TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. WE HAD IT TOWED TO A NEW ORLEANS AREA DEALER AND ARE BEING TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $3900. WE WERE ALSO TOLD THAT THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND NISSAN WOULD NOT HELP WITH THE REPAIR. THIS IS A 4 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 65,000 MILES ON IT. A QUICK SEARCH OF THE INTERNET SHOWS SEVERAL PEOPLE ALSO HAVING TRANSMISSION FAILURES AT ABOUT THAT SAME MILEAGE. SEVERAL HAVE HAD THE CAR STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY JUST LIKE MINE DID.

PRE OWNED VEHICLE HAS A FAILED TRANSMISSION SHIFT ASSEMBLY (POWER TRAIN) WHICH WAS NOT ADDRESSED PROPERLY DURING THE RECALL REPAIR DONE PRIOR TO CURRENT OWNER TAKING POSSESSION OF THE VEHICLE.NISSAN NOW STATES THAT THE "CAMPAIGN IS CLOSED OUT AND NOTHING CAN BE DONE ON THIS" HOWEVER., THEY DID OFFER$250 FOR THE CONSUMERS" INCONVENIENCE." WHICH WAS STRANGE SINCE..WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS IF IT IS NOT AN ISSUE?AND DID SAY THAT THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN 5 YRS(60000) AND REFERRED ME TO CONSUMER AFFAIRS. ALSO STRANGE. AFTER READING YOUR WEBSITE, I DECIDED TO REPORT THIS DIRECTLY TO YOU AS THEY ARE NOW TECHNICALLY NON-COMPLIANT ON THIS GOVERNMENT RECALL AS THEY REFUSE TO ADDRESS THE APPROPRIATE REPAIR. NISSAN IS TRYING TO "WRITE THIS OFF" AS A CLOSED CAMPAIGN AS THE SHIFT KNOB WAS REPLACED PRIOR TO CURRENT OWNER TAKING POSSESSION(2012); EVEN THOUGH A NEW INDEPENDENT DEALER , NOT INVOLVED IN ORIGINAL RECALL WORK;HAS RECENTLY STATED THAT CONSUMER SHOULD SEEK ASSISTANCE UNDER THIS RECALL FROM NISSAN AND THAT THE CAR ABSOLUTELY NEEDS THE SHIFT ASSEMBLY. YOUR WEBSITE STATES THAT THE KNOB AND ASSEMBLY SHOULD BE REPLACED UNDER THIS CAMPAIGN( RECALL 12V032000)NISSAN IS REFUSING TO COVER THIS ASSEMBLY (ESTIMATE ATTACHED)WHICH WAS PART OF THE ORIGINAL RECALL. AUTOMATIC SHIFTER IS CURRENTLY UNABLE TO GO INTO PARK. AND IS BEING PARKED IN NEUTRAL WHICH POSES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY RISK. NISSAN CORPORATE CONSUMER AFFAIRS WAS VERY "SHADY" ABOUT TELLING ME "WHO I WAS SPEAKING WITH, WHERE THEY ARE LOCATED, OPERATOR ID,NAME OF REP, OR ANY IDENTIFYING INFORMATION WHILE SPEAKING WITH THE REGIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE PERSON ON THE PHONE.THE ONLY INFORMATION I WAS GIVEN WAS P3C AS THEIR "AREA" IN FRANKLIN TN. PLEASE ADVISE OR DIRECT TO CONTACT IN THE NISSAN RECALL AREA ANY ASSISTANCE/DIRECTION WITH THIS ISSUE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU *TR

Summary

I BOUGHT A 2012 NISSAN VERSA IN 2012 BRAND NEW. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BECAUSE OF NISSANS RELIABILITY AND THE CAR GOT GREAT GAS MILEAGE. I HAD REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE, BUT NOT AT THE DEALERSHIP. IN LATE SEPTEMBER 2015 WHEN THE CAR HAD ABOUT 70,000 MILES ON IT IT STARTED RANDOMLY JERKING WHEN DRIVING. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THE TRANSMISSION HAD WENT OUT AND IT WOULD COST ME $3,500 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION WITH A 1 YEAR WARRANTY. THE VERSA HAS A CVT TRANSMISSION AND THEY SAID THE FLUID SHOULD HAVE BEEN CHANGED AT 60,000 MILES AND PROBABLY GOT TO HOT AND BROKE DOWN. THE WARRANTY WAS FOR 5 YEARS OR 60,000 MILES. HERE ARE MY ISSUES: I WAS NEVER TOLD WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR THAT THE CVT TRANSMISSION FLUID NEEDS CHANGED EVERY 60,000 MILES. I WAS TOLD AFTER THE TRANSMISSION WAS RUINED THAT IT SHOULD BE. I HAD THE CAR IN THE DEALERSHIP AT 63,000 FOR A RECALL AND NO ONE MENTIONED IT. I HAVE DRIVEN FOR 25 YEARS AND NEVER HAD TO CHANGE TRANSMISSION FLUID IN PRIOR VEHICLES THE CAR NEVER HAD ANY KIND OF WARNING LIGHT TO LET ME KNOW THERE WAS A PROBLEM AND I TOOK IT IN ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER THIS STARTED HAPPENING. I FOUND OUT THAT THE CVT TRANSMISSION IS A KNOWN ISSUES AND IN 2010 THEY WERE COVERED BY A 6 YEAR 120,000 MILES WARRANTY MEANING SOMEONE WHO HAS A CAR 2 YEARS OLDER THAN MINE STILL HAS A WARRANTY. I DROVE THIS CARE EVERY MILE MYSELF AND I DROVE IT LIKE A 90 YEAR OLD MAN. IN THE END I HAD TO SPEND $4,004 ON A NEW TRANSMISSION ON A 3 YEAR OLD CAR. I MADE 2 CASES TO NISSAN AND A REGIONAL MANAGER CALLED ME AND SAID THERE IS NOTHING NISSAN CAN DO. TO ME THERE IS NO LOGICAL EXPLANATION WHY THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT, WHY THERE IS NO SYSTEM THAT WOULD LET ME KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM BEFORE IT IS RUINED, AND WHY I WAS NEVER INFORMED THAT THE FLUID SHOULD BE CHANGED.

Summary

I WAS SLOWLY PARALLEL PARKING AND BACKING UP TOWARDS THE SIDEWALK. THEN, I WANTED TO MOVE MY FOOT FROM THE GAS TO THE BRAKE IN ORDER TO CUT THE WHEEL. BUT, I CONTINUED TO BACK UP. BEFORE I COULD EVEN THINK ABOUT WHY THIS WAS HAPPENING MY CAR HIT THE TREE AT THE EDGE OF THE SIDEWALK. AT FIRST, I CHALKED IT UP TO . . . A STRANGE/UNCHARACTERISTIC POOR PHYSICAL REACTION ON MY PART. HOWEVER, I HAVE ALWAYS FELT LIKE IT WAS A VERY STRANGE EVENT AND AT THE TIME THERE WAS A RISE OF PANIC AS I REALIZED MY FOOT WAS NOT GOING OVER TO THE BRAKE. SINCE IT HAPPENED SO QUICKLY I COULD NEVER TEASE OUT EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED BUT I HAVE FELT AS THOUGH MY FOOT WERE STUCK THERE ON THE ACCELERATOR. THE IMPACT WITH THE TREE LOOSENED IT. (I THINK). NOW, I SEE RECALLS FOR OTHER NISSANS. THE VERY NIGHT OF THE ACCIDENT I ACTUALLY GOOGLED THE NISSAN GAS PEDAL . . . I WENT RIGHT TO MY VIN # AND CHECKED BUT MY NISSAN VERSA 2012 WAS NOT ONE OF THEM. HOWEVER, I SAW THAT LAST YEAR OTHER MODELS (2013+) DID HAVE PROBLEMS. I STILL HAD A WEIRD FEELING ABOUT IT EVEN THOUGH MY VERSION WAS NOT BEING INVESTIGATED. AND LAST WEEK WHEN I SAW THAT ON THE NEWS THAT 2012S WERE NOW ALSO BEING RECALLED I WENT BACK TO LOOK UP MY VIN # AND STILL NO MATCH. I THINK IT IS JUST WEIRD. AND, THE WHOLE THING HAPPENED IN 1 SEC. AND OVER A SPAN OF MAYBE 3? FEET . . . SO IT IS REALLY HARD FOR ME TO DECIDE EXACTLY WHAT WAS GOING ON. MY HEAD WAS TURNED BACKWARDS AND I WAS LOOKING AT THE TREE SO I CAN'T HONESTLY SAY I LOOKED DOWN AND SAW MY FOOT WAS STUCK . . . NOT SURE IF THIS IS HELPFUL OR NOT BUT I THOUGHT I'D SUBMIT THIS EVEN THOUGH I AM NOT SURE AND LET YOU ALL SEE WHAT YOU THINK GIVEN OTHER'S COMPLAINTS.

Summary

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK IN OUR 2012 NISSAN VERSA. HE WAS ON THE HIGHWAY TRAVELING THROUGH A CONSTRUCTION ZONE AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY CUT OUT ON HIM. HE PUMPED THE GAS PEDAL BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 20 MPH. HE PULLED THE CAR OFF AT THE CLOSEST EXIT. IT WAS TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS EVALUATED. WE WERE NOTFIED THAT A TOTAL TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT WAS NECESSARY. I CONTACTED NISSAN AND WAS INFORMED THAT NISSAN TOOK NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE BECAUSE THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. HOWEVER, IN THE SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE PROVIDED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL THE FIRST TRANSMISSION RELATED MAINTENANCE DOES NOT OCCUR UNTIL 60,000 WHEN THEY RECOMMEND CHECKING THE TRANSMISSION FLUID. NISSAN CLAIMS THEY HAVE NO WAY OF VERIFYING THAT VEHICLE MAINTENANCE WAS COMPLETED BECAUSE WE DID NOT HAVE THE MAINTENANCE COMPLETED AT A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. I OFFERED TO PROVIDE OUR RECORDS OF MAINTENANCE FROM OUR PROVIDER BUT NISSAN WAS NOT INTERESTED IN SEEING THEM. I SPOKE TO THREE DIFFERENT NISSAN ASSIST REPRESENTATIVES. FINALLY, I WAS INFORMED BY THE LAST REPRESENTATIVE THAT THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE TO WHICH I COULD PETITION MY CASE. IN SUMMARY, IF YOU HAVE A NISSAN VERSA YOU SHOULD EXPECT TO REPLACE YOUR ENTIRE TRANSMISSION WHEN THE VEHICLE IS THREE YEARS OLD. IN THE PAST, NISSAN HAS EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE ON VERSA MODEL YEARS 2003-2010 FOR ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION. I THINK A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT STILL EXISTS IN THEIR TRANSMISSIONS. I THINK THIS DEFECT WAS THE CAUSE OF OUR TOTAL TRANSMISSION FAILURE. I JUST HOPE THAT NO ONE IS KILLED WHEN THEIR TRANSMISSION FAILS THEM IN THE MIDDLE OF RUSH HOUR.

Summary

WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE WITH MY STEERING WHEEL TURNED SHARPLY TO THE LEFT I HEARD A LOUD METAL THUMP IN THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL WELL. THE NEXT DAY AT THE SERVICE SHOP I WAS TOLD THAT I HAD A BROKEN RIGHT FRONT SPRING THAT HAD COMPROMISED MY STRUT. THE WHOLE REPAIR ENDED UP COSTING ME $749. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT DRIVE A 2012 VERSA WITH ONLY 56,753 MILES ON IT! THERE IS NO WAY THAT THIS SPRING SHOULD HAVE BROKEN! I DIDN'T HIT ANY BUMPS OR POTHOLES, I WAS JUST PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE. HAD THIS HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND POPPED A TIRE OR SEVERED A BRAKE LINE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT COULD HAVE OCCURRED. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT IN THE SPRINGS THAT ARE BEING USED, NISSAN NEEDS TO SERIOUSLY LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE.

Summary

WHEN DRIVING FOR ABOUT AN HOUR, IF YOU STOP AT A TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICE, ONCE YOU TRY TO ACCELERATE, THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE. EVEN IF YOU HOLD THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR, THE CAR WILL NOT GO. ONCE IT DOES "CATCH", THE RPM'S HIT ABOUT 7000 OR 8000 AND WHEN YOU LET OFF THE PEDAL THE CAR JERKS HARD AND GOES INTO "LIMP MODE". IT DID THIS SEVENTEEN (17) TIMES AND 6 OF THEM WERE ON THE INTERSTATE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. I ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED BY A CAR COMING UP BEHIND ME BECAUSE I COULDN'T MOVE THE CAR OUT OF THE ROAD IN TIME. I HAD TO SHUT THE CAR OFF, WAIT A FEW SECONDS AND TURN IT BACK ON TO GET IT TO MOVE AND EVEN THEN IT STAYED IN LIMP MODE SO I WAS STUCK IN FIRST (1ST) GEAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERY DAY UNTIL I FINALLY TOOK IT INTO THE SHOP AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION. COMING FROM AN AEMT, THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED WITH NISSAN AND THEIR CVT TRANSMISSIONS. *TR

MY WIFE AND I WERE TRAVELING ON BANGERTER HIGHWAY IN SOUTH JORDAN, UTAH. FOR SOME REASON, THERE WAS A LATCH FAILURE ON THE HOOD OF THE CAR. THERE HAD BEEN NO WARNING, NO RATTLING OF THE HOOD, NO SHAKING ETC. THE HOOD SIMPLY FLEW UP AND SMASHED INTO THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. THIS LEFT ME (I WAS DRIVING) WITH NO FRONTAL VISION. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY SAFELY; BUT I DO NOT KNOW HOW I DID THAT. THE WINDSHIELD WAS SHATTERED (GLASS SHARDS ALL OVER US), THE HINGES ON THE HOOD BENT AND CAUSED A GASH IN THE FENDER ON EACH SIDE, THE HOOD WAS DENTED, AND THE TOP OF THE CAR NEAR THE WINDSHIELD WAS ALSO DENTED. I CAN NOT DETERMINE ANYTHING I COULD HAVE DONE DIFFERENTLY WHICH WOULD HAVE SAVED ME THIS AWFUL SITUATION. *TR

Summary

THE TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY WENT OUT OF THE CAR. IT WOULD SLOW DOWN, I HAD TO STOP, TURN IT OFF, WAIT, TURN IT BACK ON, DRIVE A LITTLE BIT, REPEAT. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS CAR AND THE CVT TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS, YET NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED TO DATE. WHEN YOU BUY A NEW CAR, THE KNOWN ISSUES AREN'T OUT YET BECAUSE THERE HASN'T BEEN TIME ENOUGH TO GATHER ANY STATISTICS. THE DEALERSHIP NOR NISSAN CORPORATION WAS WILLING TO ASSIST US. WE PROVIDED SERVICE RECORDS AND THEY DEEMED THEM 'INSUFFICIENT' BECAUSE THE SERVICE WAS NOT PERFORMED THROUGH NISSAN. HOWEVER, IT IS NOT MANDATED THAT OIL CHANGES AND TIRE ROTATIONS BE COMPLETED AT THEIR SITE. THEY ALSO STATED THAT THE OIL PUT INTO THE CAR MIGHT NOT BE MADE FOR A NISSAN VEHICLE. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I'VE EVER HEARD OF AN OIL BEING MADE FOR A SPECIFIC BRAND OF CAR. THE TRANSMISSION WASN'T DUE TO BE SERVICED UNTIL BETWEEN 60,000 AND 70,000 MILES, AND WE HAD JUST TURNED 60,000 THE WEEK BEFORE. PLUS, ENGINE OIL HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH A TRANSMISSION, IT HAS TO DO WITH THE ENGINE. WE ARE STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON THE CAR. IF WE PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THE REPAIRS, AND ADD TO WHAT WE STILL OWE, NOW THE CAR COSTS MORE THAN WHAT WE BOUGHT IT FOR BRAND NEW. I'VE DONE QUITE A BIT OF RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND MANY OTHER CUSTOMERS WITH THESE SAME ISSUES. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. *TR

2012 NISSAN VERSA SV 4 DOOR SEDAN WITH CVT TRANSMISSION. VEHICLE IS JERKING WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE OVER 65 MPH. RPM GAUGE WILL BOUNCE FROM 3000-4000 WHILE THE VEHICLE IS SHUDDERING.

I PURCHASED A 2012 NISSAN VERSA FROM A PRIVATE OWNER FOR MY GRANDSON TO DRIVE AT COLLEGE. A WEEK AFTER THE PURCHASE, MY GRANDSON WAS DRIVING ON I95 AT 55 MPH AND THE ENGINE STARTED TO SLOW DOWN. HE TRIED TO ACCELERATE, THE CAR CONTINUED TO SLOW DOWN WHILE MAKING A HORRIBLE SOUND LIKE IT WAS STUCK BETWEEN GEARS. HE COASTED TO THE NEAREST EXIT, PULLED ONTO THE SHOULDER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. HE RESTARTED THE CAR AND WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME. I TOOK THE CAR TO A NISSAN DEALER SINCE IT ONLY HAD 18,000 MILES AND IS UNDER WARRANTY. THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE BUT DID REPLACE A "SENSOR". TWO WEEKS LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND NISSAN AGAIN REPLACED A "SENSOR". THE THIRD TIME, MY GRANDSON WAS DRIVING TO THE POCONOS AND JUST MADE IT TO THE LODGE BEFORE THE CAR SHUTDOWN COMPLETELY. WE HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALER WHERE IT SITS TODAY. NISSAN IS DIRECTING ME TO CONTACT THE DISTRICT OFFICE. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS DO YOU NEED TO GET A RECALL? DOES SOMEONE NEED TO DIE BEFORE NISSAN DOES THE RIGHT THING? *TR

THE CAR WILL NOT SHIFT FROM PARK WITHOUT USING THE OVERRIDE. I TOOK INTO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS PART WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. INVESTIGATING THIS, WHICH I SHOULD HAVE DONE BEFORE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, I SEE NOTHING BUT COMPLAINTS LODGED ABOUT THE CVT AND THAT THE SHIFTER ASSEMBLY HAD BEEN RECALLED FOR THE REVERSE OF MY ISSUE. THE DEALER BASICALLY TOLD ME THAT IT IS A COMMON ISSUE BUT REALLY NOT THEIR PROBLEM BUT FOR A GRAND THEY WOULD BE HAPPY TO REPAIR IT. SEEMS TO ME THAT NISSAN HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE ASSEMBLY AND THE TRANSMISSION THAT THEY NEED TO ADDRESS. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS TO HAVE A CAR THAT IS 2 YEARS OLD AND IS INOPERABLE. *TR

SINCE THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE INCIDENT THEY SAID IT NEVER HAPPENED. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE BRAKES TO FAIL AS THEY ARE A CABLE SYSTEM. I ALSO CONTACTED NISSAN MOTOR CORP DIRECTLY AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS NOT A WARRANTY ISSUE AND I WOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH MY INSURANCE AND PAY THE DEDUCTIBLE. I HAD MENTIONED TO THE NISSAN DEALER PREVIOUSLY THAT I THOUGHT THE BRAKES WERE FUNNY PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT AS THEY WOULD ROUTINELY GO TO THE FLOOR IF I WAS TRAVELING AT SLOW SPEEDS. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS NORMAL OPERATION. *JS

Summary

THIS IS A FOLLOWUP TO NHTSA ID NUMBER: 10565392: THE MORNING OF MARCH 21, 2014, MY DAD DIED. I FOUND OUT AT ABOUT NOON, WENT HOME TO MAKE PLANE RESERVATIONS AND PACK, THEN DROVE TO THE NEAREST AIRPORT, ABOUT AN HOUR AND A HALF AWAY, MOSTLY INTERSTATE. LESS THAN AN HOUR IN, I STARTED HAVING TROUBLE, SO I STOPPED TO EAT LUNCH AND LET THE CVT COOL. SHORTLY AFTER I STARTED OUT AGAIN, ONE EXIT BEFORE THE AIRPORT EXIT, THE CAR SUDDENLY DROPPED TO 40MPH -- IN A 70MPH ZONE -- AND KEPT LOSING POWER. I HAD BARELY ENOUGH POWER TO GET OFF THE FREEWAY AND COAST INTO A GAS STATION. I HAD IT TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALER, RENTED A CAR, RESCHEDULED MY FLIGHT FOR THE NEXT DAY, AND BOOKED A ROOM IN A HOTEL. I WAS GONE FOR OVER A WEEK. IT TOOK A WHOLE WEEK FOR THE DEALER JUST TO GET PERMISSION TO REPLACE THE CVT AFTER THE MECHANIC "PULLED CVT OIL PAN AND FOUND EXCESSIVE METAL SHAVINGS IN PAN AND INSIDE TRANSMISSION", SO I HAD TO RENT ANOTHER CAR TO GET HOME AND TO WORK THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THE INVOICE ONLY SAID "ALL NISSAN GENUINE PARTS CARRY A 12 MONTH/12,000 MILE WARRANTY", SO I ASKED IF THAT WAS THE CASE FOR THE CVT AS WELL. THE RESPONSE WAS SO OUTRAGEOUS, I ASKED FOR IT IN WRITING. I WAS TOLD THAT, IF I HAD BOUGHT AN SUV, THE CVT WOULD BE WARRANTIED FOR 120,000 MILES, BUT AS I OWNED A VERSA, IT WAS ONLY WARRANTIED FOR 20.5 MONTHS OR 60,000 MILES, WHICHEVER CAME FIRST. I HAD ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR ABOUT 1.5 YEARS BEFORE THE ORIGINAL CVT STARTED TO GO. IT DIED AT 2 YEARS 4 MONTHS AND 34,167 MILES, WHICH MEANS THIS CVT IS WARRANTIED TO LAST LESS TIME AND MILEAGE THAN THE ORIGINAL. IT ALSO MEANS THE CAR IS INTENDED TO LAST LESS THAN THE 5 YEARS IT WILL HAVE TAKEN TO PAY OFF THE LOAN. *TR

I READ THAT NHTSA IS INVESTIGATING THE 2013 + 2014 NISSAN VERSA AND SENTRA. I HAVE A 2012 AND HAVE BEEN HAVING BRAKE ISSUES TOO. MY REAR BRAKE SHOES NEEDED REPLACEMENT DUE TO LOUD NOISES COMING FROM MY REAR BRAKES. SOMETIMES MY BRAKE PEDAL DOES NOT GO DOWN PROPERLY. IT IS SUPPOSE TO GO DOWN SMOOTHLY, BUT SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T NORMALLY GO DOWN LIKE IT IS SUPPOSE TO AND IT FEELS LIKE SOMETHING RUBBING THE BRAKES MAKING IT HARDER TO PRESS ON THE BRAKES. ALSO, THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME ONCE WHICH HAS CONCERNED ME WHERE I AM STOPPED AT A STOPLIGHT AND MY CAR WILL STILL INCH FORWARD EVEN THOUGH MY FOOT IS PRESSING ON THE BRAKES. MY NISSAN DEALER COULD NOT FIND ANY ISSUES WITH ANYTHING, BUT DUE TO THE EXCESSIVE NOISE FROM MY REAR BRAKES, THEY REPLACED THE REAR BRAKE SHOES. *TR

Summary

NISSAN VERSA 2012. THIS IS MY SECOND CVT TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. I RECEIVED THE FIRST TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT IN DECEMBER 2013 AND IT HAS BROKEN AGAIN IN MAY 2014. THE VEHICLE GOT STUCK IN GEAR AND WOULD NOT SHIFT. IT ACCELERATED AND DECELERATED WITHOUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL. THE VEHICLE MADE FRONT END NOISES AND POPS LIKE IT WAS GOING TO FALL APART. IT'S VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE AIRBAG AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER AND GOT THE RUN AROUND. DON' T KNOW WHAT CAUSED THE PROBLEMS AND NEED MORE TIME TO RUN TEST. THE SECOND TRANSMISSION IS UNDER WARRANTY AND THE DEALER GAVE ME EVERY EXCUSE TO NOT FIX MY CAR. I WAS TOLD, BY THE DEALER, AFTER SEVEN DAYS OF WAITING ON REPAIRS, THAT THEY (DEALER) WERE WAITING FOR A RESPONSE FROM NISSAN HEADQUARTERS TO RUN TEST. FIX MY VEHICLE AND RUN ALL THE TEST YOU WANT BUT NOT AT MY SACRIFICE. THE DEALER SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT HELP ME WITH A RENTAL UNTIL NISSAN GAVE THE DEALER AN ANSWER AS FAR AS WHAT TEST TO RUN AND IF TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE, WHICH IS UNDER WARRANTY. THE DEALER JUST SAID, SORRY BUT WE CAN'T DO ANYTHING. IT WASN'T UNTIL NINE DAYS LATER THAT THE DEALER GAVE ME A RENTAL CAR, ONLY, AFTER MY DAD LIT THE FIRE. I WAS INCONVENIENCED GETTING OFF WORK, VERY LATE HOURS, WITH NO TRANSPORTATION. I INFORMED THE DEALER ABOUT MY LATE NIGHT DANGEROUS EXPERIENCES. IT SHOULD NOT TAKE, LET'S SEE, I'M ON DAY TWELVE AS OF THIS COMPLAINT TO FIX A WARRANTY PROBLEM. THESE CVT TRANSMISSIONS HAVE BEEN A LONG, ONGOING PROBLEM WITH NISSAN. THIS IS A NIGHTMARE FOR ALL NISSAN OWNERS AND NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR KNOWING ABOUT THESE ISSUES AND IGNORING THEIR ISSUES. NISSAN PUTS THE BLAME ON THE CAR OWNERS SO THAT THEY CAN PAY. THIS IS WRONG. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN A REPUTABLE COMPANY. NO LONGER REPUTABLE FOR ME.

Summary

I AM WRITING WITH TO PROVIDE NOTIFICATION ABOUT A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE, A 2012 NISSAN VERSA, PURCHASED ON OCTOBER 11, 2011 WITH APPROXIMATELY 42,000 MILES. MY CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE, AND AFTER SEVERAL FAILED ATTEMPTS TO HAVE NISSAN ADDRESS THE ISSUE, I BELIEVE THAT IT IS MY DUTY TO REPORT THIS ISSUE. ON MARCH 10, 2014 I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY AND NOTICED THAT THE TACHOMETER WAS OSCILLATING RAPIDLY, EVEN THOUGH I WAS DRIVING AT A CONSTANT SPEED VIA CRUISE CONTROL. OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS THIS ISSUE CONTINUED TO PERSIST BOTH UNDER LOCAL AND INTERSTATE DRIVING CONDITIONS. ON MARCH 15, 2014 I WAS DRIVING MY CAR WHEN IT SUDDENLY STOPPED RUNNING. TO FIX THE PROBLEM I HAD TO COME TO A STOP, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TAKE MY KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION, AND COMPLETELY RESTART THE CAR. SHORTLY THEREAFTER THIS ISSUE OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT A HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ON MARCH 17, 2014 I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO NISSAN FOR CONSULTATION. IT TOOK THEM THREE WEEKS TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM, AT WHICH TIME THEY SAID THAT CAR NEEDED A NEW WIRING HARNESS. WHILE THEY INITIALLY SAID THAT THE PROBLEM WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, THEY SUBSEQUENTLY RETRACTED THIS AND REFUSED TO COVER IT. I APPEALED TO CORPORATE NISSAN TWICE ADVISING THAT THIS IS NOT A NORMAL REPAIR BUT A SERIOUS, POTENTIAL LIFE THREATENING SAFETY ISSUE AND THEY REJECTED MY APPEALS. PLEASE NOTE THAT NISSAN CONFIRMED THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT THE ONLY VERSA THAT HAS THIS PROBLEM, THUS OTHER NISSAN OWNERS MAY BE SUBJECT TO THE SAME UNSAFE WIRING HARNESSES. SINCE I AM UNABLE TO AFFORD THE $2000 REPAIR COST FOR A NEW HARNESS, I HAVE BEEN FORCED TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE AS-IS, WHICH IS A DANGER TO ME AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. IF MY VEHICLE STOPS RUNNING WHILE I'M ON THE HIGHWAY I COULD CAUSE A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT, AND NISSAN HAS SHOWN MINIMAL INTEREST IN ACKNOWLEDGING THIS PROBLEM. *TR

JANUARY 2ND I WAS ASKED TO JUMPSTART A VEHICLE IN MY DRIVEWAY. APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES LATER MY NISSAN VERSA, WITH LESS THAN 33000 MILES, CAUGHT ON FIRE. THE CABLES WERE HOOKED UP CORRECTLY. PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT AND AT LEAST THREE TIMES, I HAD COMPLAINED OF A BURNING SMELL AFTER HIGHWAY DRIVING. I WAS TOLD BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY, I SHOULD BRING IT TO A NISSAN DEALER WHERE A LICENSED NISSAN MECHANIC COULD DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE. WHEN THE DEALER NEGLECTED TO DO SO, NISSAN NORTH AMERICA WAS CALLED IN TO DO AN INSPECTION. THEY COMPLETED THEIR INSPECTION AND WOULD NOT COVER THE EXPENSE OR RELEASE THE REPORT TO ME OR THE NISSAN DEALER. THEY OPTED TO KEEP THE INFORMATION UNDERCOVER. I BELIEVE IT IS RELATED TO THE RECALL ON THE SHIFTER RECALL. THIS MAY HAVE CAUSED THE TORQUE CONVERTER TO LEAK AND THE ENGINE TO CATCH ON FIRE. *TR

Summary

REFERENCE: NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V138000 MY VEHICLE HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V138000, BUT IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. IT DEACTIVATES THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WHEN THERE IS AN ADULT SITTING THERE. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES. THEY CALIBRATED THE SEAT AND THE PROBLEM REMAINED. THEY ASKED ME TO TAKE MY WIFE THERE, WHICH I DID. MY WIFE SAT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND THE AIRBAG WAS DEACTIVATED (FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF LIGHT CAME ON). THEN THEY ASKED HER TO SIT IN ANOTHER BRAND NEW NISSAN VERSA 2012 AND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WAS DEACTIVATED TOO. THE DEALER SAID THE VEHICLE WAS WITHIN SPECIFICATION AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO AND SUGGESTED THAT I CALL NISSAN. I THEN CALLED THE NISSAN CONSUMER HOTLINE AND THEY SAID THE THRESHOLD FOR THE SYSTEM TO DEACTIVATE THE AIRBAG IS 90-100 POUNDS. THIS IS THE WRONG WEIGHT BECAUSE THERE ARE SMALL ADULTS, SUCH AS MY WIFE, WHO WEIGH LESS THAN THE THRESHOLD AND THAT CAUSES THE PASSENGER AIRBAG TO TURN OFF. THE NISSAN CONSUMER HOTLINE SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO EITHER. THIS WAS ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO. FOR REFERENCE, HONDA CIVIC HAS A THRESHOLD OF 65 POUNDS WHICH IS MORE REASONABLE AND WOULD CORRECTLY CLASSIFY AN OCCUPANT AS A CHILD OR AN ADULT. WHEN I SAW THE NEWS IN MARCH 2014 THAT NISSAN IS RECALLING ABOUT ONE MILLION VEHICLES FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY TOLD ME MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN. I NEED YOUR HELP TO GET NISSAN TO LIVE UP TO THEIR RESPONSIBILITY AND CORRECT THIS DESIGN FLAW WHICH IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE 2012 NISSAN VERSA. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS AND REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I DO NOT WANT TO WAIT UNTIL THERE IS AN ACCIDENT AND MY WIFE GETS HURT OR WORSE BECAUSE THE AIRBAG WAS DISABLED. PLEASE HELP ME. *TT

YESTERDAY I SAW AN ARTICLE ON CNN, THAT NISSAN IS RECALLING SOME VEHICLES BECAUSE THE AIR BAG SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SIDE IS MALFUNCTIONING, AND MAY PREVENT THE AIR BAG TO NOT GO OFF EVEN IF THERE IS A PASSENGER SITTING THERE. THE LIGHT DOES THIS ONLY WHEN THE PASSENGER SEAT IS EMPTY. IF THERE IS A PASSENGER THE LIGHT GOES OFF AND STAYS OFF. I DID NOT SEE MY 2012 VERSA INCLUDED IN THE ARTICLE.

I WAS DRIVING 75 MPH (THE SPEED LIMIT) ON AS FLAT STRETCH OF TX190 WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST POWER. I WAS ONLY ABLE TO KEEP IT AT 60MPH BY PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR TO THE FLOOR. I WAS ONLY ABLE TO RESUME NORMAL DRIVING SPEED BY TAKING MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND THEN PRESSING IT TO THE FLOOR AGAIN. I'VE OWNED THIS CAR FOR 2 YEARS AND HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR FOR THE LAST 8 MONTHS. IT STARTED WITH A HESITATION AND SQUEAL WHEN I LIGHTLY TOUCHED THE ACCELERATOR TO ADJUST MY SPEED AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. TWO MONTHS AGO IT STARTED HESITATE-SURGE BEHAVIOR, LIKE IT WAS SEARCHING FOR THE RIGHT GEAR, AT FREEWAY SPEED LIMITS OR WHEN ACCELERATING TO FREEWAY OR CITY SPEED LIMITS. SOMETIMES IT'S SO STRONG I'M AFRAID I'M GOING TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. FROM WHAT I'VE READ ONLINE, NISSAN HAS HAD PROBLEMS WITH ITS CVT FOR YEARS, YET I'VE BEEN UNABLE TO GET 3 NISSAN DEALERS IN 3 DIFFERENT TOWNS TO SERVICE THIS PROBLEM. ONE SAID THEY COULDN'T REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. THE OTHER TWO WOULDN'T EVEN GIVE ME AN APPOINTMENT. THEY BASICALLY SAID THIS IS JUST HOW THIS TRANSMISSION WORKS, LIVE WITH IT.

Summary

I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO NISSAN OF CHANTILLY AFTER THE ENGINE DIED THE DAY BEFORE AFTER IT STOPPED RUNNING IN THE MIDDLE OF BROADLANDS BLVD, BUT I MANAGED TO GET IT STARTED JUST ENOUGH GET IT TO A PARKING LOT. THEY HAVE CONTACTED ME ONLY ONCE DURING THE ENTIRE TIME THAT THEY HAVE HAD THE CAR. I CONTACTED THEM ON THE 15TH OF NOVEMBER TO BE TOLD THAT THE ENGINE HAD TO BE REPLACED, BUT THEY HAVE NOT INSTALLED IT THOUGH THEY HAVE BEEN AUTHORIZED BY NISSAN, BECAUSE THEY ARE HAVING ENGINEERS COMING TO ASSES THE ENGINE TO FIND OUT WHY IT STOPPED WORKING, THIS APPEARS TO BE A DELIBERATE ATTEMPT TO KEEP FROM REPAIRING AND ACCEPTING OWNERSHIP THAT THE ENGINE WAS DEFECTIVE AND KEEPING ME OUT OF THE LOOP. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS' AND FILED A COMPLAINT REQUESTING TO HAVE A NEW CAR AS THE DEVALUATION OF THE CAR AND NOT KNOWING WHAT HAS OCCURRED OVER THE LAST MONTH AND A HALF BETWEEN THE DEALERSHIP AND NISSAN. I'M NOT EVEN SURE IF THE ENGINE WILL ACTUALLY BE NEW OR REFURBISHED WHICH MAY IMPACT THE LONGEVITY OF THE CAR AND COULD BE VERY WELL BE A SAFETY HAZARD IF THESE ENGINES ARE DEFECTIVE AND MAY BE A PART OF HIDDEN DEFECT ISSUE BETWEEN THE DEALERSHIP(S) AND NISSAN. *TR

ANOTHER DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THERE WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE ABS CONTROL MODULE FROM ANOTHER MODEL, HOWEVER THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT REPLACE IT BECAUSE(QUOTING FROM A SERVICE ADVISER) "NISSAN ISN'T IN THE HABIT OF THROWING PARTS AT A CAR AND HOPING FOR A RESOLUTION". THE DEALER HAS STATED THAT WITHOUT REPLICATING THE PROBLEM THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. *TR

SHOP FOR FEAR OF NISSAN TAKING THE PART AND CHARGING ME TWICE AS MUCH,WHILE SAYING IT WAS MY FAULT.

I WAS DRIVING IN THE RIGHT HAND LANE ON WINDSOR AVE. I WAS DRIVING SOUTH AND A TRUCK WAS IN THE LEFT LANE. THE TRUCK CAME OVER ON MY LANE. I TRIED MOVING OVER A LITTLE TO STAY AWAY FROM THE TRUCK, WHEN I DID I JUMPED THE CURB AND HIT A CAUTION SIGN WHICH MADE THE CAR GO UP IN THE AIR. AND WHEN IT CAME DOWN MY FOOT HIT THE GAS PEDAL. AS GOING UP IN THE AIR I HIT MY HEAD, THANK GOD I HAD MY SEAT BELT ON. WHILE TRYING TO CONTROL MY CAR I WENT THROUGH A RESIDENTIAL FENCE, AND THEN HIT A HOUSE AND BROKE THEIR OIL FILL TUBE WHICH CAUSED THE OIL TANK TO LEAK. I ALSO CRACKED THE FOUNDATION OF THE HOUSE. WHEN MY CAR HIT THE HOUSE I WAS IN SUCH SHOCK I HAD BLOOD ON MY HEAD, AND HAD NECK PAIN. THE NEXT FEW DAYS I WAS IN SO MUCH PAIN NOT ONLY BECAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT BUT BECAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT MY MEDICATION PUMP HOSE WAS KINKED, AND IT CAUSED THE PUMP TO SHUT DOWN.WHICH I HAD TO HAVE SURGERY ON SO THEY COULD REPLACE THE PUMP WITH A NEW ONE. I ALSO HAVE TO HAVE SURGERY ON MY NECK. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED IF THE AIR BAGS HAD BEEN DEPLOYED. THERE NEVER WAS A WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH BOARD BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THERE HAS BEEN PROBLEMS WITH THESE AIR BAGS. I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME AND HOPE TO HEAR FORM YOU SOON. *TR

Summary

THE VEHICLE SEEMS TO EXPERIENCE HIGH FREQUENCY GAS PEDAL VIBRATION THAT IS FELT ONLY BETWEEN 2500 - 3000 RPM AT ANY SPEED AS LONG AS IN THIS RPM RANGE THE VIBRATION CAN BE ALSO FELT IN THE BRAKE PEDAL WITHOUT APPLYING THE BRAKES IN THE SAME RPM RANGE SINCE THERE IS ONE BRACKET FOR ACCELERATOR AND BRAKE. NO VIBRATION DURING BRAKE APPLICATION. THE DEALER TESTED THE CAR AND STATED THAT ANOTHER NEW 2012 VERSA HAS THE SAME ISSUE AND WILL NOT CONTINUE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM SINCE IT IS A WASTE OF TIME. THE PROBLEM CAUSES UNCOMFORTABLE PULSATION THAT RESULTS LOOSING FEELING IN MY FOOT AT THAT ENGINE SPEED. I HAD BEEN AN ASE CERTIFIED MASTER TECHNICIAN AND I NEVER EXPERIENCE VIBRATION IN THE GAS PEDAL AS AN SYMPTOM IN ANY OF MY COMPLAINTS. AFTER LOOKING AT THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDAL BRACKET IT SEEMS THE BRACKET CAN FLEX TO ANY SIDES WITH LITTLE EFFORT BUT WILL STAY STABLE IN DIRECTION OF THE PEDALS TRAVEL. THE BRACKET DOES NOT SEEM TO BE DAMAGE JUST POOR DESIGN TO HOLD RIGIDITY TO SIDE MOTION. I AM NOT SURE IF THE BRACKET IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM OR OTHER SOURCE IS TRANSMITTING VIBRATION. HOWEVER, I THINK THERE SHOULD BE NO SIDE MOTION SINCE THE ASSEMBLY CAN FAIL DUE TO MATERIAL FATIGUE OVER TIME. ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION MOUNTS HAD BEEN CHECKED BY MYSELF AND THE DEALER. *TR

ON SEPT 29TH AT OR AROUND 3:45PM MY FAMILY AND I WERE DRIVING TO A SWIM MEET ON HIGHWAY 60 IN MESA, AZ. ABOUT 5 MILES INTO THE TRIP I HEARD A HISSING SOUND COMING FROM THE AC SYSTEM AND A MINUTE LATER WE HAD NO AC PUMPING THROUGH. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THAT MONDAY (ASSUMING IT WAS COVERED BY WARRANTY) I WAS TOLD A ROCK HAD HIT THE CONDENSER IN SUCH A WAY THAT IT CAUSED THE SYSTEM TO NEED REPAIR AND THAT WAS NOT COVERED. I ASKED IF THIS WAS A COMMON INCIDENT AND WAS TOLD IT HAS OCCURRED BEFORE. IN FACT IT WAS A DESIGN FLAW. THE DEALERSHIP WAS TO CHARGE 700.00 PLUS. I WAS FLABBERGASTED!!! MY THOUGHTS WERE IF I WAS TO PAY TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED-IT COULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN. MUCH TO EXPENSIVE A REPAIR TO NOT HAVE SOMEONE MADE AWARE THAT THIS IS WRONG!!! NISSAN SHOULD HAVE A PROTECTIVE SCREEN IN PLACE (OR SOMETHING DONE)TO AVOID THIS IN THE FUTURE OR WARN CONSUMERS OF THIS. *TR

I DISMISSED THE PULL I FELT WHILE DRIVING MY NEW NISSAN VERSA SINCE FEB. 2012 AS BEING NEW TO DRIVING ON MOUNTAINOUS ROADS.... BUT AFTER HAVING A MAJOR SCARE THIS WEEKEND WHERE MY STEERING WENT COMPLETELY OUT I AM NOT SURE IF IT IS NOT ALL CONNECTED. WHEN DRIVING I CAN NOT LET MY HANDS OFF THE WHEEL AT ALL WITH OUT IT SIGNIFICANTLY MOVING TOWARDS THE NEXT LANE/CURB. THEN THIS WEEKEND WHEN SITTING IN TRAFFIC (YES IT WAS VERY HOT OUTSIDE) WITH AC ON I TRAVELED A FEW FEET BEYOND THE TRAFFIC LIGHT AND WENT TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN WHEN MY STEERING BECAME SO HARD THAT IT TOOK ALL MY STRENGTH TO KEEP THE CAR FROM COLLIDING WITH SIGNS/OFF ROAD. IT WAS LIKE I LOST POWER STEERING... I GOT IT TO AN EMPTY PARKING LOT NEAR BY AND TURNED THE CAR OFF FOR ABOUT 1 MIN. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND OIL LIGHT. I RESTARTED THE CAR AND STEERING HAD RETURNED. CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY TOOK ME IN RIGHT AWAY AND "LOOKED AT IT" AND SAID THERE WERE "NO TROUBLE CODES STORED" AND "ELECTRIC POWER STEERING MOTOR MAY HAVE GOT HOT ENOUGH FOR THE CONTROL MODULE TO SHUT IT OFF TO PREVENT DAMAGE". DOES THIS MEAN I CAN'T STEER MY CAR IF IT GETS HOT OUTSIDE??????? I AM A MOTHER AND DON'T FEEL SAFE TRAVELING IN THIS CAR!!!!! I DO NOT FEEL THAT THE DEALERSHIP WAS CONCERNED WITH WHAT HAD HAPPENED. *TR

I WAS GIVEN THIS CAR AS A RENTAL. I AM AN EXTREMELY SAFE DRIVER WITH A PERFECT DRIVING RECORD. WITHIN 7-8 MINUTES OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE THERE WAS A CRASH! I DROVE IN ON THE SAME BUSY STREET THAT THE RENTAL CAR WAS LOCATED AND FROM THE STOP LIGHT THE CAR SWITCHED INTO GEAR AUTOMATICALLY AND THE BRAKES WOULD NOT WORK. THIS CAUSE CAUSED ME TO HIT A CAR FROM BEHIND AND SINCE THE BRAKES WEREN'T WORKING I HYDROPLANED INTO THE BACK OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. ONLY ONE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED, THE ONE IN THE HORN..NOT ALL SIX. I SUFFERED A SEVERE CONCUSSION AND HAD TO BE HOSPITALIZED OVERNIGHT. LUCKILY, THE PEOPLE IN THE OTHER VEHICLES WERE FINE. I AM NOW UNDER THE CARE OF A NEUROLOGIST WHO IS DOING TESTS TO HELP DETERMINE WHY I GET FREQUENT MIGRAINES AND MY SHORT TERM MEMORY IS VERY LIMITED AS WELL AS MY BALANCE. THE NISSAN VERSA 2012 IS NOT A SAFE CAR! *TR

Summary

THE SIDE PANELS ON BOTH FRONT DOORS OF OUR FOUR DOOR SEDAN DO NOT ILLUMINATE, SO AT NIGHT WE CANNOT LOCATE THE UNLOCK/LOCK TABS (OR THE POWER WINDOW TABS). BECAUSE OF THIS OF LACK OF ILLUMINATION, WHENEVER IT IS DARK WE ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE UNLOCK TABS, THUS INHIBITING OUR ABILITY TO EXIT THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE IN THE CASE OF EMERGENCY, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EXIT FROM THE VEHICLE QUICKLY AND SAFELY. (PLEASE NOTE THAT THE SIDE PANELS DO LIGHT ON OUR OTHER 2012 VERSA, WHICH IS A HATCHBACK.) I HAVE WRITTEN THREE LETTERS AND SPOKEN TO FOUR NISSAN CUSTOMER RELATIONS REPRESENTATIVES---AND EACH SAYS THAT NISSAN WILL NOT RETRO-FIT THE DOOR PANELS AND THAT WE HAVE TO FIND A SOLUTION TO THIS CONCERN ON OUR OWN. BECAUSE ALL THE DOORS LOCK AUTOMATICALLY ONCE THE CAR IS DRIVEN, I BELIEVE THAT THE UNLOCK/LOCK TABS NEED TO BE ILLUMINATED THAT DRIVER AND PASSENGER CAN QUICKLY SEE THE UNLOCK TABS SO WE CAN GET OUT OF THE CAR. WE ARE LITERALLY LOCKED INTO OUR CAR AND IN ACTUALITY CANNOT SEE TO GET OUT OF OUR CAR WHENEVER IT IS DARK. *TR

THEN, HE HAD TO TURN THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE VENTS TOWARD THE GLASS, ALL WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THE DEFROSTER WORKED FAIR AT BEST. IT ONLY ELIMINATED ABOUT HALF THE FOG ON THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND NONE ON THE REAR WINDSHIELD AND SIDE WINDOWS. HALF THE TIME, WHEN THE CONSUMER ATTEMPTED TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE, THE KEY DID NOT WANT TO COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. HE WOULD HAVE TO JIGGLE THE KEY AND THE SHIFT KNOB TO GET THE KEY OUT. THE AUTO DOOR LOCKS DID NOT UNLOCK WHEN HE PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TURNED OFF IN ORDER FOR THE AUTO DOORS TO UNLOCK. ALSO, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD EMIT A LOUD BANG, WHEN THE CONSUMER PUT THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE. *JB

Summary

THE CAR SEEMS TO HAVE VERY LOOSE STEERING OR IS REALLY OUT OF ALIGNMENT. FEELS LIKE I AM BEING BUFFETED BY A STRONG WIND. THE STEERING WHEEL DOESN'T MOVE, BUT THE CAR PULLS LEFT AND RIGHT. ESPECIALLY AT HIGHER SPEEDS, IT IS A STRUGGLE TO KEEP IN THE LANE. DIFFERENT ROAD SURFACES ADD TO THE MOVEMENT. I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THERE IS NO PROBLEM. *TR

Summary

THE NISSAN DEALERS SAY THAT THE CHANGE OF SPEED IN THIS CAR CANNOT BE FELT, AND SO DOES THE TV COMMERCIAL. IT ISN'T TRUE. IT IS A DANGER IN THE STREETS. EVERYTIME I GO TO THE EXPRESSWAY I HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE ISN'T A CAR ANY CLOSE TO BE ABLE TO ENTER BECAUSE WHEN YOU TRY TO SPEED A BIT, IT RESTRAIN ITSELF AND I ALREADY GOT SCARED WITH THIS EXPERIENCE. EVEN WHEN YOU ARE IN THE CITY AND YOU TRY TO SPEED A BIT TO CHANGE LANE, YOU CAN FEEL THAT IN MOST OF THE CASES IT WON'T LET YOU DO IT INMEDIATELY. I DON'T KNOW HOW THIS CAR HAVE BEEN APPROVED WITH 5 STARS BY THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT AS THE DEALERS SAY. BESIDES, THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT WON'T GO ALL THE WAY, AND YOU CAN SEE THAT AFTER FEW BLOCKS DRIVING, IT LOOSE A BIT MORE. I BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER, BUT I CANNOT PUT THIS DANGER IN HER HANDS. I HOPE I GET ADVISORS THAT HELP ME TO GET MY MONEY BACK OR TO BE ABLE TO CHANGE THIS CAR AND NOT LOOSING 5000 AS THE NISSAN PROPOSED ME. UNFORTUNATELY I CANNOT AFFORD IT ANYMORE. *TR
