Regarding my 2014 Nissan Versa Note, with "continuous variable (cone shaped) transmission": I first noticed the transmission issue beginning October of 2020. When accelerating quickly, it feels like the transmission FREEZES, so I back off the accelerator and it usually kicks back into gear. When my husband first experienced it, he told me to shift to neutral and back to drive which seems to work; however being on a public thoroughfare and manually shifting gears to keep moving forward seems like a MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. I have read several posts regarding this same issue. MY QUESTION IS: Why hasn't this American/Japanese automobile conglomerate addressed this SAFETY ISSUE WITH A TRANSMISSION RECALL?
The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Versa Note. The contact stated upon starting the vehicle, the check engine warning light and the brake warning light illuminated. The contact also stated she noticed water underneath the front passenger’s seat. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the cowl drain was clogged and was causing water retention. The dealer informed the contact that the failure had led to an electrical issue. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 71,000.
I have been taking my car to nissan since my purchase. I was having cooling issues, radiator issues, and car not starting. with all these issues and years of repairs..my CVT transmission finally went out. I had no clue as they were fixing and servicing this car. I call nissan affairs dept as i had to pay $5050.00 to replace it out of my pocket! Nissan states out of warranty 5 months ago!!. I inquired to why i was NEVER contacted about transmission issues and problems or the opportunity to be included in the civil action with this vehicle. They CLAIMED they had the old owners information which is a LIE as i have received prior documentation for warranty notifications in my name! excuse after excuse to not help me. that got me good with the 5050.00 for an ongoing issue for this vehicle. NISSAN does not help at all!
Driving on city road at about 40 MPH going over bridge, and car just shut off in middle of driving. Cars had to swerve to avoid hitting me. Almost got hit a couple times. Stuck in middle of a busy road.the car has 61,000 miles on it. Regularly oil changes and serviced. There was no warning lights or warnings beforehand that prepared me for the incident. Checked battery connections and tried to restart, no startup. Had to car a tow truck to get it towed to home, then to nissan dealership in my area. The nissan service in my area has been trying to figure out what the issue is, and they have no idea.
I almost died. T he transmission is trash. When the car comes to stop and hit the pedal the car doesn't move and when if finally accelerates keeps shaking and the transmission slips and jerks.
Firs time that I move my rear back seats to the front to make it flat and when I put my sit belt was behind I try to pull the lock to move the seat and is nor working doesn't unlock. Now my seatbelt is stocked in the back forever... And after my 3 year my car stared making this clicking noise when I park like the bottom part stops first and the the body is annoying have to deal with this thats why I chose to buy a new car but the struggle os the same. Wrong car wrong choice.
