1. From the beginning, wind noise was noticeable. Management from dealership checked vehicle and said noise was from design of side mirrors. I called nissan and they said there were no bulletins at time and until there were they could do nothing. 2. Windshield has waviness across entire lower section of glass. This is noticeable where glass and cowling adjoin. New windshield was order from nissan and installed. Same issue with replacement glass. My wife is 4'9" and finds this to be distracting. 3. Heat shield over muffler came loose and vibrating. Poor quality. I understand from online blogs that this indeed has been an issue.

Vehicle weight for the 2013 nisan versa model year was substantially reduced vs previous years models. Vehicle is subject to cross winds / gusts (greater than 5 MPH) at driving speeds greater than 40 MPH under good road and weather conditions. Suggest that nissan issue a written advisory to its customers, and/or redesign the versa model so it's more stable during windy conditions.

I was stopped at a red light in the left turn lane and was changing radio stations. I looked up and noticed the car in front of me was already going through the intersection, so I put my foot on the gas pedal and accelerated quickly. As I approached the intersection (stop line) I attempted to remove my foot from the gas pedal, but could not, because my foot was stuck. I used my right hand to grab my leg, and pulled harder, immediately braking hard, then backing my foot of the brake as I squealed and skidded around the corner, almost going over the curb and crashing. After parking the car in a safe spot, I inspected the gas pedal area to determine what happened. The plastic piece that covers the center console extends around to just next to the gas pedal. It attached with a plastic press fit lock several inches from the edge, leaving the edge unsecured. The corner of that plastic panel wedged between the sole and leather upper of my work boots, preventing me from taking my foot off the gas pedal. *tr ... Updated 03/19/15*bf updated 6/18/2015

Front doors leak air into the cabin very bad. Have taken the car back to the dealer three times complaining. They finally said that all nissan versas have this issue. While traveling on the interstate and cold or raining outside the cold air leaking into the cabin causes the door windows to fog to a point you can't see to change lanes.
