When the problem initially happened, I would have to push the rear defroster button hard (and sometimes wiggle it) in order to make it work. However, after a week of doing that to get the snow, frost, and fog off my rear windshield, the button no longer works (I.e. The light indicator does not come on, nor does the rear defroster turn on). After checking all my fuses (in the hood and cabin) and finding that the fuses were in perfect working order, I began to look on various nissan versa forum sights to see if I could troubleshoot the matter. After typing my problem in, numerous nissan forums popped up discussing this exact problem. Many people have stated that the reason the rear defroster does not work is due to an inferior A/C controller. I understand that times are tough and companies want to make money by using cheap parts, however when it comes to safety this should not be the issue.

Dash button for rear defroster doesn't work at all and A/C button is working only when pressing it for an extended period of time or if you apply extreme pressure and wiggle the button. During a rainy period this is causing a hazard because one cannot see clearly due to the fogging of front and rear windows.

The sun visors (l and r) will not stay up on the hook, they fall down. Partially blocking forward view. Neither visor will hold at any position, including stored. They continue to drop down. I am presently using velcro to secure the visors in a stored or up position. There ia no apparent means of adjustment, and the dealers want $200 plus to fix. I have never had an automobile have this problem with the sun visors, and I have owned at least 11 cars since 1956.

The defrost system does not function properly. It doesn't matter how fast you are driving. The system cannot keep windows free from fog and during cold spells, it cannot keep the fog off the windshield. It is so dangerous to drive that I have actually had to pull off the road. No matter the interior temperature is set, whether you open the window, or how fast the blower goes, nothing seems to help see. The back passenger window have never been able to clear making it impossible to check for cars in the 'blind' area when changing lanes. I don't know what to do; I pray you can come up with a solution. Just think about driving down the road on a cold day or night and being able to see for a while. Then, the fog slowly overtakes the windows and windshield. Always the windows!

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 nissan versa. The contact stated the sun roof drain ducts should drain the water from the vehicle, leaks inside the passenger compartment. The failure causes the side curtain air bags to become wet. The vehicle was taken to the dealer twice for repair and they blew air into the air ducts to clean them out. The dealer stated that this process would have to be performed periodically in order to keep the air ducts from clogging. The manufacturer stated that the contact would have to pay for the repair because it was not covered under warranty. The failure mileage was 19,000 and current mileage was 25,000.
