My Transmission was replaced in 2016 at 60K miles. 3 years after the car was bought brand new. As of today the car has 114K miles. September 9, 2022 my transmission completely shut down on me. Also the check engine like came on. I have had the car only a year and the problem just came about. Im worried and concerned that the transmission should have not got out this quick for me. And also concerned as to why the original owner had the same transmission problem as me and had to replace after 3 years! I got in my car Sep 9 , 2022 and drove about 20 minutes and the car started jerking forward and the RPMs were going crazy moving so fast. I turned around to head back home, i got on the bridge and was driving about 50/55mph. The car started decreasing in speed all the way to 0. Turned the car off and tried to continue to make my way back home. I had to take back streets home and every time I stopped at a red light or stop sign the car would take a second to drive off after. I brought the car to a mechanic who told me my transmission went out. Since the car transmission was last replaced only 54,000 miles have been put on the car. The fuel for the transmission was dark.
the tail lights get moisture in them and then do not work properly. there is a service recall on them from the Nissan versa manufacturer. since there is a service recall on his issue, why is this agency not requiring a recall. obviously there is a manufacturing safety defect present here.

There is a service bulletin that explains it. Look at your tail lights and see if there is moisture in them. Of course it may not be the solution to your problem, but it is a known issue.

Transmission began hard shifting, long shifting, skip shifting, and not shifting. Check engine light came on. Was told by mechanic this is because a revers tail light went out. Replaced tail light and transmission works normal. This doesnt sound right to me!
While driving onto the freeway my car starting hesitating to catch speed and after it did while I was driving on the freeway it began to shudder and loose power . It was accompanied we with whining sound and no check engine light indicator came on . I went to a transmission had a fluid exchange done and the fluid turned to a dark looking oil almost similar to motor oil . The transmission continues to malfunction on the highway at high speed and on city road at lower speeds. The quality of my drive train declined to to the point of no longer running. My vehicle has now been parked for almost 2 and a half months . It only has 114,000 miles on it . I called nissan north america will not help me fix it because it is out of warranty
I was about to pull out of a parking lot, I changed my gear from parked to drive and as I started to drive out, I noticed my check engine light turned on again and my car jerked back and forth a couple of times as I started to accelerate. This is not the first time this has happened, but usually the car only jerks for a second whenever I change gears.
2013 nissan versa struggles to turn on. Car also idles rough and has stalled at stop lights. Took it to buena park nissan and they said there was nothing wrong with it. Recently the engine light came on, it was p0705 transmission range sensor.
Got po705 code, engine light on... Sometimes the gear display gets black...does not display in what gear I am..I turn off and back on to make sure I see in what gear I am...while in drive, and idle at traffic light, the engine hesitates a lot like something was misplaced......
I purchased a used car from mr. Bill motor co in arlington, tx on pioneer parkway. The vehicle started to overheat. I called to inform mr. Bill motors and I was told they would send it out to be looked at and let me know when it was ready for pick up. It was taken to dg's performance on pioneer parkway for repairs. About a week later the car resumed overheating, I contacted mr. Bill motors again and they said they would send the vehicle out for repair. They sent it to longhorn transmissions. As my daughter was headed to school after the repairs were completed on I-20 in arlington, tx the car starts to overheat and stops on her, she could not drive the car. She calls longhorn and they send a tow to get her. She was told they did not place the cap on the transmission when they added fluid to it so they would take care of it. Two days later the car is heating again. I contact mr. Bill motors again in person so they could see and with a video of what the car had been doing, they tell me they will work on it the next day. I could not drive the car from the lot, the engine light was on and I rolled into the street. Two sales men had to push the car unto the property from the street. Two days go by and I am told that it is a transmission issue that will cost me $1500 and take a week to repair from scott and he states that matt another manager is present with him. I called to discuss status update, missing items from the car to find out they were charging me $235 for the tow that longhorn transmission billed them. I explained that I had no knowledge of this charge, nor do I feel responsible for the charge. They did not put the cap on they should be responsible for the charge and that you do not charge anyone without discussing the amount with the person. I asked for the total cost of the repair and I stated I wanted to speak to the repair place. I was given a number for jeff.
