2012 NISSAN VERSA Complaints

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AS MY CAR CAME TO NO POWER ENGINE ON WILL NOT DRIVE I HAD MY INSURANCE TOTALED THE CAR TO THE NEAREST DEALER THE DEALER TELLS ME I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION I DON'T HAVE $4,000 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION!

CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED RUNNING WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING ME TO ALMOST GET REAR ENDED 3 TIMES. SHOP ADV THE FUEL PUMP BURNT THE FUSE OUT CAUSING THE THE CAR TO LOOSE POWER AND DIE. THE 15 AMP FUSE WAS BURNT OUT 2 TIMES IN 12 MONTHS OR LESS THE FIRST TIME WAS CITY STREETS THE SECOND TIME WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH. BOT TIMES TIME I WAS IN MOTION.

TRANSMISSION. CAR LOOSING POWER SPECIALLY WHEN GOING UP A HIL. WHEN CAR IS IN MOTION WILL NOT GO PASSED 45MPH & FEELS LIKE IS GOING TO GIVE UP.L TOOK THE CAR TO NISSAN DEALER OF BUENA PARK & WAS INFORMED TO TRADE IN THE CAR. IN MARCH 29 OF 2015 CAR STOP RUNNING TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC & PAID $1800 & CAR STARTED RUNING.

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.

THE CAR WAS RUNNING ON THE HIGHWAY AND WHEN IT STOPS IN THE LIGHT IT SHUTS DOWN FROM THERE ON, IT DID NOT WANT TO LIGHT UP ANYMORE. THE CRANKSENSOR WAS PUT ON THE COMPUTER, THE PC MODULATED THE BOX OF REALEASE THE FOOT OF THE ACCELERATOR, NOW THE CAR IS ON BUT WHEN IT ACCELERATES IT TURNS OFF IT IS NOT KNOWN WHAT IT CAN HAVE NOW.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND SUDDENLY THE CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING. WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER BEFORE IT COMPLETELY STOPPED. RPM KEPT SPIKING WHEN THE PEDAL WAS PRESSED AND THE ENGINE HAD A REVVING SOUND, BUT NO MOVEMENT WITH THE CAR. IT COULD GO IN REVERSE, BUT NOT FORWARD.

WHILE ACCELERATING THE VEHICLE JERKS AS IF IT CANNOT FIND A GEAR, THE RPMS JUMP AROUND AND THE ACCELERATION IS SLOWED DRAMATICALLY. THIS HAPPENS WHENEVER I ACCELERATE BUT GETS VERY BAD WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP AN OR ATTEMPTING TO SPEED UP TO PASS OTHER VEHICLES.

THE CAR WAS IN A LOW SPEED ACCIDENT UNDER 30 MPH ON THE 14TH STREET BRIDGE IN WASHINGTON D.C. AND THE ENTIRE FRONT OF THE CARS WAS CRUSHED. THE OTHER VEHICLE IN THE CRASH HAD MINOR DAMAGE TO THE REAR CONSISTENT WITH THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLES. ALSO, THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED LATE, SEVERAL SECONDS AFTER THE CRASH WHEN THE OCCUPANTS WERE GETTING OUT OF THE VEHICLE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY.

"TAKATA RECALL" NISSAN DEALERSHIP WILL NOT REPLACE THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG, IT HAS REPLACED 2 AIRBAGS ONLY. BAGS REPLACED ARE SIDE AIRBAG ON DRIVERS SIDE, AND FRONT AIRBAG FOR PASSENGER. SPOKE TO MANAGER OF 2 DEALERSHIP BUT SAY THOSE NOT REPLACED WERE NOT SPECIFIED, THEREFORE WILL NOT REPLACE. ALSO COULD NOT TELL ME IF THEY WERE A DIFFERENT BRAND. SAID I WOULD HAVE TO PAY THEM TO CHECK THE BRAND. WHY. WOULD NISSAN USE DIFFERENT BRANDS ON SAME CAR?

WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE DID NOT ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE DID NOT ACCELERATE. A DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WAS DONE ON VECHICLE AT DICK SMITH NISSAN COLUMBIA, S.C. TRANSMISSION PROBLEM DETECTED. THE FAILURE MILAGE WAS 90,000.*DT. VEHICLE WAS AT THE GAS PUMP TO FUEL UP WILL NOT MOVE ONCE SHIFT TO DRIVE.
