2012 NISSAN VERSA Complaints

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE RECEIVED A NOTICE STATING THAT THERE IS A RECALL AND I WOULD RECEIVE ANOTHER LETTER WHEN THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE WHICH WOULD BE BY THE END OF APRIL. IT IS NOW GOING INTO THE END OF MAY AND I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE ANY LETTER. THIS VEHICLE HAS AN ACTIVE RECALL CURRENTLY. I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE ANY OTHER VEHICLE AS THIS IS MY PRIMARY USE OF TRANSPORTATION. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT THE STATUS OF THIS REQUEST IS. THE INITIAL RECALL ADVISES IT WAS RECALLED ON JANUARY 10, 2017 BUT I DID NOT RECEIVE ANY NOTIFICATION UNTIL APRIL.

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.

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.
