2014 NISSAN VERSA Complaints

THIS VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT FOR MY COLLEGE-AGED DAUGHTER TO DRIVE TO WORK AND SCHOOL. SHE WAS STRANDED IN NORTH CAROLINA WHEN THE CAR FAILED TO ACCELERATE, THE ENGINE REVVED HIGH AND THE CAR "JUST DIED." I MANAGED TO GET IT BACK TO TENNESSEE AND DROVE IT MYSELF. WHILE TURNING LEFT ACROSS TRAFFIC, THE CAR DID NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL. IF IT HAD BEEN A BUSY TIME OF DAY, THE RESULTS COULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC FOR MY FAMILY. I HAD MY MECHANIC OF 30 YEARS LOOK AT THE CAR, HE SAYS IT NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION. "MIGHT CAN DRIVE IT FOR A WHILE BUT I WOULDN'T LET YOUR DAUGHTER GET IN IT." THIS CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD AND NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION??? PLUS IT IS A DEATH TRAP FOR MY DAUGHTER WHO IS A YOUNG DRIVER? I NEED SOME ADVICE FOR THIS PLEASE.

I GOT MY CAR OUT OF " ROSS NISSAN OF EL MONTE" TOOK MY CAR MULTIPLE TIMES AND NEVER WAS ADVISED OF HAVING ANY ENGINE PROBLEMS. IAM THE FIRST OWNER , AND CAR SHOULDN'T BE GOING THROUGH ANY ENGINE PROBLEMS. VIN# [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I WAS REACHING FOR SOMETHING IN MY GLOVE BOX WITH MY SEAT BELT FASTENED WHEN MY BELT BROKE AT THE CONNECTION TO THE FRAME. IT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS JUST GLUED AND THE GLUE CAME LOOSE. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT THE TIME.

TRANSMISSION PROBLEM: I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW FOR MY DAUGHTER JULY 2013. LAST YEAR IT STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS SHIFTING GEARS. THIS YEAR THE PROBLEM GOT WORSE. WE RECEIVED A RECALL CARD IN THE MAIL STATING TO BRING IT IN TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION. THE RECALL WAS ONLY FOR REPROGRAMMING THE COMPUTER. AFTER BRINGING IT IN, THE CAR SHUT DOWN ON HER AS SHE WAS DRIVING HOME. I'M THANKFUL WE LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN. I CALLED NISSAN'S CORPORATE OFFICE TO COMPLAIN. A REPRESENTATIVE NAMED PATRICK (615) 725-7359 WAS ASSIGNED MY COMPLAINT.. HE SAID THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO BECAUSE THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. I STILL HAVE A YEAR LEFT TO PAY FOR THE CAR. NISSAN DEALERSHIP CHARGED $2990 TO FIX THE CAR. I HAVE READ SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION IN THESE CARS AND SAFETY HAZARDS. NOTHING IS BEING DONE!!

ON 7/24/18 WHILE DRIVING MY 2014 NISSAN VERSA ON NORTH I-15 NEAR CHARLESTON BLVD IN CONSTRUCTION STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, I HAD SLOWED TO A STOP BASED ON TRAFFIC. AS THE TRAFFIC BEGAN TO MOVE, I TRIED TO ACCELERATE AND CAR SPUTTERED, BUT MOVED AND THEN AFTET DRIVING A QUARTER OF A MILE AT A SPEED OF 25 MPH, THE CAR JUST STOPPED WHILE IN DRIVE. ALL DSAHBOARDS LIGHTS AND ENGINE INDICATION CAME ON. LUCKILY THE CAR BEHIND ME SCREECHED TO STOP. I IMMEDIATELY PUT ON HAZARDS AND PULLED EMERGENCY BRAKE AND PUT CAR IN PARK. I TRIED TO RESTART CAR AND IT WOULDN'T START. AFTER FIVE MINUTES, THE CAR STARTED AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. I ADVISED MY DAUGHTER AND TOLD HER I WOULD PUT CAR IN SHOP. ON 7/26/18, I TOOK CAR TO AUTO CARE FOR ASSESSMENT. MY VEHICLE HAD ONLY 31,290 MILES ON IT. THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG BUT OUT OF CONCERN, I HAD A 30,000 MILE SERVICE DONE ON CAR. ON 8/3/18, I WAS ADVISED BY ANOTHER DRIVER THAT MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING. I WENT HOME AND MY DAUGHTER SAW THAT THE LIGHTS WERE OUT ALSO. I CHECKED AS SHE BRAKED AND NO LIGHTS. I DROVE ON HAZARDS TO AUTO REPAIR AND THEY CHECKED VEHICLE AND LIGHTS WORKED. THEY STATED MAYBE AN ELECTRICAL SHORTAGE BUT RETURN IF LIGHTS GO OUT AGAIN. FROM THE TIME I PURCHASED THIS CAR BRAND NEW IN MARCH OF 2014, I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO NISSAN FOR LACK OF POWER, SPUTTERING AT STOPS AND INTERMITTENT STALLS. NISSAN REPLACED OXYGEN SENSOR A YEAR AGO WHEN CAR STOPPED WHILE DRIVING AND ADVISED THAT IT'S A SMALL CAR SO WON'T HAVE A LOT OF POWER. ON 8/23/18, I RECEIVED NOTICE FROM NISSAN REGARDING SUDDEN STOPS AND TO BRING CAR TO DEALER FOR REPAIR. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE OR HAVE MY GRANDCHILDREN WITH ME WHEN I DRIVE. THE CAR STUTTERS AT STOP AND HESITATION IS CONSTANT. I'M NOT SURE NISSAN CAN REPAIR THIS ISSUE.

CAR HAS A LITTLE LESS THAN 35000 MILES. THE CAR HAS TERRIBLE PROBLEMS ENGAGING ANY GEAR. TRANSMISSION IS WASTED. I WAS GOING TO CAMBRIA FROM ORANGE COUNTY. I FELT THE CAR A LITTLE WEIRD ARRIVING IN CAMBRIA, BUT IT STILL RUINED. AS I WAS COMING TO ORANGE COUNTY, THE CAR ABANDONED ME IN THE FREEWAY. I HAD TO TAKE IT OFF THE HIGHWAY AND DRIVE THROUGH STREETS TO MY HOUSE. CAR IS BROKEN.

THIS CAR HAS ONLY 34,000 MILES ON IT AND THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT HAS COME AND IS FLASHING CONSTANTLY ... GIVEN THE MILEAGE OF THE CAR I WAS SHOCKED AND AMAZED THAT I WOULD BE HAVING A PROBLEM. OTHER PROBLEM I'VE HAD IS THAT IT HAS STALED OUT A COUPLE OF TIMES FOR NOT REASON AT ALL WHEN PULLING OUT ONTO THE ROAD.

I GOT MY 2014 NISSAN VERSA NOTE AS A CHRISTMAS GIFT FROM MY PARENTS IN 2015. MY PARENTS DID LOTS OF RESEARCH AND WAS ENSURED THAT IT WAS A SAFE AND RELIABLE CAR FOR A FIRST TIME DRIVER. UNFORTUNATELY THIS CAR HAS CAUSED ME MANY TIME CONSUMING PROBLEMS. I DRIVE A LOT TO COMMUTE TO MY WORK. I'VE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH NASTY EXHAUST SMELLS, SLIPPING GEARS, DELAYED SHIFTING, BREAKS DELAYED AND GRINDING, AND RPM"S SHOOTING UP WHEN BARELY GASSES. MY COMMUTE IS QUITE DANGEROUS WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC AND LOADS OF SEMIS PASSING ONE ANOTHER. IT REALLY WORRIES ME AND MAKES MY FEAR FOR MY SAFETY WHEN I'VE BEEN HAVING ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS I REALLY SHOULDN'T HAVE WITH THIS NEW OF A CAR. BAKERSFIELD NISSAN HAD MY CAR TRYING TO FIX IT FOR A WEEK AND A HALF REALLY PUTTING A MONKEY WRENCH WITH MY COMMUTE TO WORK. THEY EVENTUALLY HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION AND CV BOOT. NOW I AM HAVING NEW PROBLEMS AND LOTS OF GRINDING AND RATTLING. THEY TOLD ME MY CAR FAILED TO REPLICATE ANYTHING BUT THE RPM"S SHOOTING UP. IT REALLY FRUSTRATES ME KNOWING THIS CAR ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES ON IT!!!!!!! PLEASE HELP ME FIGURE THIS OUT

2014 NISSAN VERSA CVT TRANSMISSION...WE BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW FROM THE DEALER HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT A PAIN TRANSMISSION BLEW OUT AT 70 THOUSAND MILES. I HAD IT SERVICED AT 60 THOUSAND FOR ALL FLUIDS AND FILTERS DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS IN GREAT CONDITION I WAS MID WAY HOME FROM DROPPING MY NIECE OFF HOME AND THE VERSA STARTED SLIPPING GEARS AND SHUDDERING I ALMOST CAUSED A 5 CAR ACCIDENT IF I HADN'T PULLED OUT THE WAY OF THE CAR BEHIND ME. IMAGINE IF I HAD MY NIECE IN THE CAR WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED IF WE DID CRASH BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEM AND NISSAN WILL NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PROBLEM. THEY WANT 3800.00 TO FIX IT. I AM ONE OF THOUSANDS OF VICTIMS OF NISSAN NOT RECALLING THERE CARS KNOWING THEY PUT OUT A HORRIBLE AND DANGEROUS PRODUCT OUT ON THE ROADS.

I RECIEVED THE CAR WITH A DAMAGED HEAT SHIELD. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS FIXED YET CONTINUED TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH IT. LATELY I HAVE HAD AXEL SEAL LEAK ISSUES AS WELL AS TRANSMISSION SLIPPAGE WHEN ACCELERATING.
