What 2015 Nissan Versa Note owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
I was driving in stop abs ho traffic and the car cut off out if no where. The car jerks when you drive it and stalls. It seems like it requires a lot of work to accelerate and the rpm fluctuates between 2&3 when keeping a steady pace. The care bucks while you are driving. I just bought this car so these issues are alarming to me. It also looks as if the airbag on the top left might be exposed.
I was in my car sleeping with the ignition off when I woke up there was flames on the driver side of the hood. You can see where the fire started on the ground wire by the battery circuit box. My safety was at risk because I could have not been able to make it out of my car if didn't wake up in time and could have been severely injured or even dead.

Speed control is way off doors won't stay closed back hatch unlatched on it's own full cooling fan went out stationary and in motion highway and town streets
When accelerating the car shuts off. When pulling into a parking lot the vehicle shut off. When pulling in driveway, up a slight hill, the vehicle shut off. The car shut off three times on 7/13/2020 on my 2015 nissan versa note.
Car floors--right, left, front and rear were mysteriously flooded with a substantial amount of water. Vehicle had been parked in flat driveway, all windows shut, and upon driving a couple blocks from home and pulling to a stop sign on a downward sloping street, water rushed forward on the floor of the car. Car was last driven 2 weeks prior to get inspected and subsequently there had been a few days with heavy rains. Where the water came in I don't know. Used shop-vac to suck out tons of water but moisture still remains on floors when pressed with paper towels. Also, different lights were lit on dash when I put the air on while parked to help dry out carpet--the ABS and the car skidding lights. Makes me suspect electrical system was affected by water also. Will call mechanic and insurance company first thing tomorrow (monday).
Driving on highway, hot day temp on dash read 98 degrees. All electronics shut down, A/C shut down. Power steering shut down and was barely able to steer car to the side of the road. 3rd time this has happened and do not feel safe driving car especially now that I'm pregnant.
Base s model. Level ground. Stationary. Steering wheel not locked. Key takes a few tries to turn the ignition, like it's the wrong key. Wd40 doesn't help. Feels like the lock's pins are worn.
