What owners say
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.

the heat shield fell off my 2013 versa. i understandthis is common versa cars. that shows manufacturing quality control issues that harm the engine. please make sure you report that the heat shield fell off the bottom of my car. it was not secrured properly. the ar only has 57,000 miles on it. in addition the headlights do not work. there must an electrical short that always causes the highbeams to fail.
my car is 7 years old but has only 57,000 miles on it. i had an older car so used that most of the time and saved this car. i have had endless problems with this car with its electrical system, the headlights go out all of the time and now the undercarriage is costing me alot of repair costs. dont know if i am being ripped off because i am a female senior citizen or the car is really fallingj apart at 57,000 miles. i paid well over $600 for repairs on exhaust system. now they tell me i owe almost $2,000 for repairs on something called abushing and a control arm and if i dont fix it the car will fall apart into two pieces. i have no way to get under the car for this kind of thing. i can so easily be ripped off. i need help. does the govt ever give any help to people. i need help b adly becuase i am so vulnerable tocrooked dealerships wanting to make money in this bad economy. pllease help me.https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/FMfcgzGllMLMMCnCVlTQDxQldZvZzwhN?projector=1&messagePartId=0.1
Tamara recall: I was driving at night & a deer ran in front of my car & the front bumper & rt headlight had to be replaced on my 2013 nissan, versa. My insurance pd it. I am not certain if the airbags should have deployed but they did not deploy even with my putting my foot on the brakes hard & still hitting the deer, I thought it strange that the airbags did not deploy with the sudden brakes & hitting the side of the deer. Was the airbags supposed to deploy in that situation? I don't know. Is there something wrong with the airbags? Unknown not deploy. Is this normal? I don't know?
No high beams at all.
