2013 NISSAN VERSA
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.

ON 8 MARCH 2017, MY BATTERY DIED AND I HAD IT REPLACED AT TJ AUTOMATICS & SERVICES. I DROVE THE CAR FOR A FEW DAYS BEFORE GOING ON VACATION. ON 21 MARCH 2017, AS I'M DRIVING HOME ON THE FAR (FAST) LEFT LANE, ON I-85N, ATLANTA, GA.AT APPROXIMATELY 3:30PM, THE CAR SHUTS-DOWN. I WAS ABLE TO COAST OVER TO THE EMERGENCY LANE WITHOUT INCIDENT. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE ABOVE MENTIONED SHOP AND THEY PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST THAT SHOWED ECM NO COMMUNICATION. THEY REPLACED A MAXI FUSE 20A AND REPROGRAMED KEY. ON 23 MARCH 2017, I PICK UP THE CAR FROM THE SHOP, DROVE ABOUT 5 MILES AND CAR SHUTS-DOWN AGAIN. AS OF 9 APRIL 2017, THE CAR IS STILL IN THE SHOP. THEY CAN NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT IS CAUSING THIS ISSUE.

WHEN I WAS BUYING THIS CAR FROM MCCULSKEY USED I QUESTIONED THE TRANSMISSION. ASKED THAT THEY PUT THIS IN WRITING. THEY REFUSED AND STATED THAT IT WAS FINE. THE TRANSMISSION AT THE TIME WAS A DEAD SPOT WHERE TRANS DID NOT SHIFT. AS TIME HAS PASSED, THE TRANSMISSION HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE UNTIL I COULD NOT TAKE IT. THE TRANSMISSION AT 25 MPH AND 45 MPH WENT IN TO SEIZURES. ALMOST LIKE A NEW DRIVER OF A STANDARD SHIFT. THEN THE POWER WOULD SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SERVICE. BECAUSE THEY WOULD KNOW BETTER THAN ANYONE. HOW EVER THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY TRANSMISSION. THEY WERE ABLE TO FIX THE POWER PROBLEM. NO RECALLS AVAILABLE. WHILE RESEARCHING MY CAR I FOUND THAT 2007-2010 TRANS HAVE BEEN RECALLED. I SPOKE TO NISSAN COMPANY TO MAKE A COMPLAINT. THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR ME. RECENTLY THE PS LIGHT IS COMING ON. THE POWER STEARING IS OUT WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON. WHEN YOU SHUT THE CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON THE POWER STEARING WORKS UNTIL THE LIGHT RETURNS. THE CAR IS NOW ALMOST NOT ABLE TO DRIVE DUE TO THE TRANS. I ONLY HAVE 84,000 MILES ON THIS CAR. IT IS ONLY 4 YEARS ONLY. I NEED SOMEONE TO HELP.

I PULLED UP TO A PUMP AT A GAS STATION, GOT OUT AND WENT IN THE STORE TO GET A DRINK. CAME BACK OUT AND MY CAR HAD LOCKED UP. THE STEERING AND BRAKES WERE BOTH LOCKED. THANK GOD I WASN'T IN MOTION WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I CUT THE CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT THERE BEFORE TRYING TO START IT AGAIN. IT CRANKS BUT NEVER TURNS OVER. THERE IS A BATTERY LIGHT, BRAKE LIGHT, PS LIGHT AND OIL LIGHT ON THE DASH. I RESEARCHED IT AND EVERYTHING INDICATED A BAD ALTERNATOR. I BOUGHT A NISSAN ALTERNATOR AND PUT IT ON. STILL NEVER TURNED OVER. THE FUEL PUMP RUNS AND I PUT SOME STARTING FLUID INTO THE THROTTLE BODY AND IT STARTED BUT DIED AFTER A FIVE SECONDS. EVERY NISSAN DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. ITS MY ONLY CAR, I'M FLAT BROKE AND I AM WALKING 2 HOURS TO WORK EVERY DAY SO I DON'T LOSE MY JOB. I NEED TO KNOW WHAT'S WRONG.

FAILING INSPECTION 2 YEARS IN A ROW DUE TO NON-COMMUNICATING OBD SENSOR . FIRST YEAR NISSAN DEALERSHIP "FIXED THE PROBLEM. THIS YEAR A LOCAL SHOP FIXED IT AND STATED THAT MANY OF THE GROUNDS WERE LOOSE. THE SHOP WENT THOUGH ALL OF THE GROUNDS IN THE CAR. IN ORDER FOR THE OBD TO START COMMUNICATING AGAIN. THE MECHANIC WAS IN SPEAKING WITH A NISSAN DEALER AND THEY HINTED THAT THE CARS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE GROUNDING BUT THEY WOULD SAY THE WHOLE STORY. THIS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. *TR

2011 NISSAN VERSA
THIS MORNING, MY CAR WOULD NOT START. I USED A BATTERY CHARGER PACK, AND IT STARTED. HOWEVER, AFTER DRIVING 3 MILES TO THE LOCAL AUTO ZONE CAR STORE TO CONDUCT A FREE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR TEST, THE CAR STALLED OUT. AFTER USING THE BATTERY PACK TO JUMP START IT AGAIN, THEIR BATTER/ALTERNATOR CHECK MACHINE CONCLUDED THAT IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR. IT IS 1/19/2015 AND THE CAR IS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION 2011 NISSAN VERSA WITH 33,000 MILES ON IT; THERE ARE NO MODIFICATIONS ON IT. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE ALTERNATOR HAS STOPPED WORKING AFTER ONLY 33,000 MILES WHEN THE AVERAGE LIFESPAN OF NISSAN FACTORY ALTERNATORS TEND TO LAST TO OVER 100,000 MILES. *TR

2012 NISSAN VERSA
I AM WRITING WITH TO PROVIDE NOTIFICATION ABOUT A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE, A 2012 NISSAN VERSA, PURCHASED ON OCTOBER 11, 2011 WITH APPROXIMATELY 42,000 MILES. MY CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE, AND AFTER SEVERAL FAILED ATTEMPTS TO HAVE NISSAN ADDRESS THE ISSUE, I BELIEVE THAT IT IS MY DUTY TO REPORT THIS ISSUE. ON MARCH 10, 2014 I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY AND NOTICED THAT THE TACHOMETER WAS OSCILLATING RAPIDLY, EVEN THOUGH I WAS DRIVING AT A CONSTANT SPEED VIA CRUISE CONTROL. OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS THIS ISSUE CONTINUED TO PERSIST BOTH UNDER LOCAL AND INTERSTATE DRIVING CONDITIONS. ON MARCH 15, 2014 I WAS DRIVING MY CAR WHEN IT SUDDENLY STOPPED RUNNING. TO FIX THE PROBLEM I HAD TO COME TO A STOP, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TAKE MY KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION, AND COMPLETELY RESTART THE CAR. SHORTLY THEREAFTER THIS ISSUE OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT A HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ON MARCH 17, 2014 I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO NISSAN FOR CONSULTATION. IT TOOK THEM THREE WEEKS TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM, AT WHICH TIME THEY SAID THAT CAR NEEDED A NEW WIRING HARNESS. WHILE THEY INITIALLY SAID THAT THE PROBLEM WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, THEY SUBSEQUENTLY RETRACTED THIS AND REFUSED TO COVER IT. I APPEALED TO CORPORATE NISSAN TWICE ADVISING THAT THIS IS NOT A NORMAL REPAIR BUT A SERIOUS, POTENTIAL LIFE THREATENING SAFETY ISSUE AND THEY REJECTED MY APPEALS. PLEASE NOTE THAT NISSAN CONFIRMED THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT THE ONLY VERSA THAT HAS THIS PROBLEM, THUS OTHER NISSAN OWNERS MAY BE SUBJECT TO THE SAME UNSAFE WIRING HARNESSES. SINCE I AM UNABLE TO AFFORD THE $2000 REPAIR COST FOR A NEW HARNESS, I HAVE BEEN FORCED TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE AS-IS, WHICH IS A DANGER TO ME AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. IF MY VEHICLE STOPS RUNNING WHILE I'M ON THE HIGHWAY I COULD CAUSE A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT, AND NISSAN HAS SHOWN MINIMAL INTEREST IN ACKNOWLEDGING THIS PROBLEM. *TR

2011 NISSAN VERSA
WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT (WITH A HERTZ RENTAL CAR IN KAUAI HAWAII) AND SWITCHING BETWEEN HIGH BEAM AND LOW BEAM AND TRAVELING AT 40 MPH ALL THE HEADLIGHTS TURNED OFF. THE STALK MOUNTED SWITCH CONTROLS BOTH HEADLIGHT ON/OFF (ROTARY MOTION) AND HIGH BEAM-LOW BEAM WITH BACK AND FORTH STALK MOTION. AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AND SUCCESSFULLY USING THE HIGH-BEAM LOW BEAM SELECTOR OFTEN, ON THE NEXT CHANGE BETWEEN HIGH AND LOW BEAM THE ROTARY MOTION OF THE KNOB ALSO ENGAGED AND TURNED THE HEADLIGHTS OFF. I HAVE SIMILAR CONTROLS ON MY CAR AT HOME AND THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED. THE ROTARY MOTION OF THE ON / OFF KNOB REQUIRES JUST A VERY LIGHT TWIST AND THE IN-OUT MOTION NEEDED TO CHANGE BETWEEN HIGH AND LOW BEAM ALSO TWISTED THE OFF SWITCH. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO BRING THE CAR TO A HALT WITH THE BRAKES AND STAY ON THE ROAD. IT WAS VERY SCARY AND VERY FRIGHTENING TO BRAKE FROM 40 MPH IN THE PITCH DARK NOT KNOWING IF THE NEXT INSTANT WAS TO BRING A CRASH. MY WIFE WAS ALSO VERY SHOOK UP. AFTER I STOPPED I FIGURED OUT WHAT HAPPENED. IT WAS PITCH BLACK OUTSIDE WITH NO STREET LIGHTS. THIS CAN KILL SOMEONE!! THE FLUTED SURFACE OF THE ON/OFF KNOB EXACERBATES THE PROBLEM AND MAKES IT EASIER FOR A LIGHT BRUSH WITH A FINGER TIP TO TURN THE KNOB AND HEADLIGHTS OFF. THE VIN I COPIED FROM THE LIHUE AIRPORT HERTZ RECEIPT FOR THE RENTAL. LICENSE NUMBER WAS [XXX], HAWAII .IT WAS A RED COLOR CAR WITH AUTOMATIC SHIFT. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
