What 2013 Nissan Versa owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The Gear Shift Selector is stuck in Park. Being forced to use the manual override in order to drive, reverse or place car in neutral every time the car is being used. This is ridiculous!
My car had a problem from day one I bought.The tires always showing not working and car has absolutely no power if you going on hill.From last year car having really serious problems with transmission and shuffling.I took car to Nissan Car dealership and the are reprogrammed transmission.Unfortunately after a few weeks the same problem and even worst.Car making absolutely horrible noises and speed not going more then 15-20
i am getting water in my right tail light bulb so that it is out. i have only 57,000 miles on my car. it is 7 years old. this has no damage to the right tail light. it was just manufactured so it is a damage problem. nobody hit the car there in that area oranything. it just developed to have water in teh light bulb. nissan versa is not a well designed or manufactured car. it falls apart on the buyer. i bought this car new and hardly used it for 7 years. i had another car and used that more. it sat in my driveway falling apart.
the undercarriage of my car seems to be falling into pieces. the car has only 57,000 miles on it. it has sat in my driveway for 7 years because i had another nissan, my sentra, which i had for l5 years and it never had undercarriage issues. and i never had all these issues with my sentra that i am having with this versa now that i am free to drive it since i got rid of my sentra after l5 years. the dealer says power control arms pressure forceing grees to be released. and heat shield, repair heat shield ripped off bolts and causing rattling under vehicle. i just paid a $600 bill to that same dealer for that same areas of work not that long ago. why is my nissan falling apart. i had a sentra i had for l5 years and never had trouble with the undercarriage like this. i cant afford these big repair bills. the milage is very low for all these things to go wrong when i never had them go wrong on the sentra for l5 years. did ghosn steal money from versa?
my air conditioning is not working. i believe wires in my care are covered with soy which is an attractant to mice and rats and causes them to climb into my car and eat the wires, causing the car to malfunction. we need to outlaw and ban the use of soy feedstuffs on car wires, this is just ridiculous for allowing this to happen, to make cars a magnet for mice and rats.
There is hesitation when I accelerate, it takes a little bit to get up to speed (which isn't great when you're on the free way). When I push on the break and then take my foot off the break it feels like my car is still breaking. When I'm stopped at a red light my car shakes.
I've spoken to nissan complaints, and I've gotten nothing. Nissan versas intermittently shutter when driving. This is dangerous. Nissan told me it could be the transmission, but refuse to dig into it because they claim they can't find the codes. This is crap. I'm not driving an unsafe vehicle. The transmission is a CVT. When I accelerate past 2 rpg it shutters repeatedly. There needs to be some kind of recall
The transmission indicator on the display goes out frequently while in motion. When the display is out, the CVT transmission shudders, slips, and/or 'downshifts' hard. There is also a lack of power when accelerating which becomes a problem when entering traffic. The indicator will go out and then come back on intermittently while operating the vehicle.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 nissan versa. While idling, the vehicle felt as if it would stall and the check engine warning light illuminated. As a result, the vehicle went into safe mode and would not accelerate over 40 MPH. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the vehicle needed to be reprogrammed. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred four times. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 83,000. The VIN was not available.
