Continuous Variable Transmission Assembly Failure; Engine Stalled on the Highway; around 4/25/2022 No warning lights came up. Took it to the Nissan Dealer; They charged $495 for reprogramming Computer and Test Drive. The problem came up PF17F0 - Judder. CVT Assembly has to be replaced. The car has run only 33,000 miles and is good condition. The dealer says to REPLACE the Transmission with a new ONE. They stopped installing REFURBISHED Continuous Variable Transmission Assemblyand will only sell the new ones for others to repair cars. It costs $6,500/== More than the worth of the cars. THEY WILL NOT SELL PART - creating Monopoly.

In February 2022, our 2014 Nissan Versa (which my husband purchased new in 2014) started to sputter and nearly stall upon acceleration. Today (3/14/2022) I visited Younger Nissan- a Nissan dealer in Frederick, MD where he purchased the car- for diagnosis and repair. They found that the car at 77,666 miles needs a completely new transmission, costing over $4000 in repairs. This is a critical safety issue. The car could have stalled at any speed, and there is no error or alarm shown on the car's dashboard indicating an issue. This is a product defect and with no warning or alarms there was no opportunity to fix or check the issue while under still under warranty. I have been driving this unsafe vehicle for several weeks, unaware that there was a critical safety issue for myself and other drivers- this is unacceptable! This is a known issue for Nissan. If you Google "2014 Nissan Versa transmission" you will find complaint after complaint- including a class action law suit- about this issue. It seems that Nissan knows and is trying to ignore this issue. I would appreciate if you looked into this issue with Nissan and their CVT transmission issues with their 2014 Nissan Versa models. I also plan to contact Nissan North America, the US Department of Transportation, the Maryland State Attorney General and possibly Small Claims Court about this issue. Please look into this so that myself and other drivers are not risking our lives driving these vehicles. I am happy to provide you with copies of my payments etc. once the car is fixed. I had to finance the majority of the repair cost as I am sure a large majority of other drivers have had to do as well. Thank you for any assistance and feedback.

My car has a CVT transmission and it jerks and stalls when trying to change gears and sometimes gets stuck in gear. I saw that their is a recall for this issue in nissan cars (versa,Sentra,Altima’s)from years 2012-2018 issued in 2016, but when I called the dealership they said it’s not for my specific car according to the VIN number. I’m not sure why this is and I’m confused and would like to know how to resolve this issue.

I was backing out of my driveway, and noticed that the vehicle started losing power and steering. The vehicle then shut off while driving. After this incident, I parked the car, and it stopped responding and would no longer turn on.

The car turns off while driving and waiting at a stop sign or red light. Studdering occurs with exceleration. There is also an electrical draw somewhere. If the car is not driven in 3 days, the battery must be jump started. We have replaced the battery. This has been an ongoing problem since 2017

I have a 2014 nissan versa. I got this car new and every year since owning this car there has been a issue with the transmission. Nissan has had at least 3 recalls on the transmission. It has gotten to the point that the transmission is beyond repair on a 5 year old car. The transmission sensor and transmission has malfunctioned. The car will stall for a second before going into gear. Mechanic shops said I need nissan to repair this or put me in a new car! I am complaining because I am in a death trap vehicle that I am still required to make payments on. I am having to pay high maintenance fees and car payments. In a car that can get me killed. Nissan knows something is wrong with these 2014 cars but has not reached out to me about it. They recalled some 2014 versas but not all. I strongly believed I was sold a highly unsafe car. There's no reason why a new car should have transmission issues every year on a new car.

Bought 2014 nissan versa on 09/10/19. Had it checked out by mechanic and checked out good. Had for 2.5 - 3 weeks and engine light came on and started stalling while stopped. Had to turn headlights off when stopping and then turn them on again when car got going again. Took to aamco in louisville ky and they said it was neutral safety switch. Spent $400 to have replaced and things were good for a couple of days then started doing the same thing again. Very dangerous to have to turn lights off/on at night. Drove to ky this weekend to get car and bring home to mo to have fixed (hopefully). I cannot have my daughter in college 500 miles away from me in a dangerous situation.
