After having my transmission replaced with a used CVT transmission on Dec 2021, I went to leave the transmission shop only to have no power. When I gave my vehicle gas, there was no power it would not go forward or backwards. The code repeatedly coming up was P2101. My car was in the shop for 4 months with Williams Transmission in Park Hills, MO 63601. (573) 431-6570. Every time Willie would call & say it’s fixed & I would go try driving g home, again same issue. Finally on March 23, 2022 I was called once again to come pick up my car after hack v another used CVT Transmission put in still the same code P2101 was coming up with the check engine light. It took me 40 mins to go home occasionally getting evcrlation to make it home, it should’ve took no more than 10 mins from his shop to my house.. I paid $3000 to have transmission replaced and still isn’t running correctly. I lose excelaration on highway, county & city tosds. I never know when!! It’s a big issue & major safety issues & concerns

The vehicle is a 2012 Nissan Versa driven only 81,000+ miles. I was driving the vehicle up a modest incline on Saturday, February 12, 2022. The car started to shudder and felt like it was losing power, as if it were running out of fuel. I pulled off when I turned the next corner and stopped. As I started out again, the check engine light came on, so I drove it to my mechanic. He has informed me that the malfunction code is a transmission failure code, and he is performing more diagnostics related to this code. In doing research, I now know that there is a fundamental failure with the CVT automatic transmissions for this model year of Nissan Versa, typically occurring at 75,000-85,000 miles. I am not eligible for Nissan's $278M settlement of a class action suit for this issue, because claims were only eligible for the first 84 months after purchase and the claim window is now closed. Everything I have read suggests that this is a critical and dangerous problem, because this CVT transmission failure can even result in the car losing all power and coming to a complete stop in traffic. This is a fundamental and life-threatening issue for which I believe Nissan should provide a full recall for the affected vehicles.

Vehicle is moving in forward direction always even if the gear shift is in Park or Reverse mode. It is scary. It put us lot of stress in terms of physical health, mental health and finance. We nearly met with an accident as vehicle was moving always in forward direction as soon as we moved the car from the parking lot. We towed the vehicle considering our and public safety. Contacted Nissan dealership and consumer affairs team. They went only by the books. Told that there is no recall. They did not seem to care about the safety. They asked me to go ahead and shell out for fixing. The same vehicle stopped in the middle of the road with heavy jerk/forward movement. We were lucky that we did not meet with an accident. We had to tow the vehicle in that case. I had to replace fuel pump at my own cost. With multiple safety concerns on this vehicle, I am surprised that there is no recall on this model. At the least, I was expecting this for my VIN. Request you to help on the recall considering the public safety. With vehicle few thousand dollars worth still, I may need to review and make a choice on disposing this vehicle (not sell) by taking the financial hit. Financial hit in this uncertain situation means a lot to me. It puts pressure. Since I care about public safety, I am reviewing this as the last choice. Nissan does not seem to be worried as there is no recall. Correct option is to have this vehicle recalled. Request you to review and help from safety perspective

I'VE HAD ISSUES WITH MY CAR SINCE THE DAY I BOUGHT IT. IT TAKES A WHILE FOR IT TO ACTUALLY ACCELERATE AND I'VE HAD SERIOUS ISSUES SINCE 60K MILES AND I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES AND ASKED IF THEY COULD LOOK INTO IT. THE SECOND THAT MY WARRANTY EXPIRED IS WHEN THEY LET ME KNOW THAT I NEEDED TO GET MY TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGED, BUT THEN IT TURNED OUT TO BE MY TRANSMISSION, AND THEN THEY KEPT GOING BACK AND FORTH AND DIDN'T WANT TO DO IT BEFORE BECAUSE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL TIMES ON THE FREEWAY WHERE IT STALLS AND WON'T GO MORE THAN 20MPH. IT IS VERY SCARY WHEN THIS HAPPENS AND I'VE HAD TO PULL OVER MULTIPLE TIMES TO STOP AND THEN BE ABLE TO GO AGAIN. I'VE ALWAYS BEEN ON TOP OF THE MAINTENANCE AND I'M HOPING WITH THE RECALL THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO ASSIST WITH REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION AT NO COST. I DON'T SEE MYSELF EVER BUYING A NISSAN VEHICLE AGAIN.

MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING FROM OHIO TO VIRGINIA WHEN HER CAR STOPPED WORKING WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. THE CAR WOULD NOT GO WHEN ACCELERATED. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSE A FATALITY. HAD THE CAR TOWED SEVERAL TIMES TO FINALLY END UP AT A NISSAN DEALER IN CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA. THE SERVICE TECHNICAL SAID THAT HER TRANSMISSION NEED TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH NISSAN AND WAS A PAST RECALL. BECAUSE THE RECALL TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION HAS EXPIRED, NISSAN REFUSED TO FIX IT. THE CAR ONLY HAS 68,500 MILES ON IT AND THE TRANSMISSION IS DEAD. THIS IS NOT A NORMAL CASE AND I WOULD LIKE FOR NISSAN TO EXTEND THIS RECALL AND FIX THE CAR AS THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED MY DAUGHTER TO LOSE HER LIFE. *TR

TRANSMISSION FAILED AFTER ONLY EIGHT YEARS WITH PROPER MAINTENANCE. I REVERSED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND INTO THE BUSY HIGHWAY AND WHEN I PUT IT IN DRIVE IT WOULD NOT MOVE AT ALL. I AM VERY LUCKY THAT THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC NOTICED I WAS HAVING ISSUES OR I WOULD CERTAINLY BE DEAD. MY MECHANIC SAID IT IS NOT WORTH IT TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION BECAUSE IT WILL ONLY FAIL AGAIN AND AGAIN. I HAVE BEEN ADVISED TO GET RID OF THE VEHICLE AND PURCHASE A NEW ONE, IT SEEMS NISSAN'S CVT TRANSMISSIONS HAVE HAD A LOT OF ISSUES THAT ARE WIDELY KNOWN. IT IS UNFORTUNATE THAT NISSAN IS ALLOWED TO CONTINUE SELLING LEMONS. MY VERY FIRST CAR WAS A 1981 MONTE CARLO AND THE TRANSMISSION ON THAT CAR NEVER HAD TO BE REPLACED, I USED THAT CAR UNTIL 2016 AND THE ONLY REASON I GOT RID OF IT WAS THAT THE FRAME BUCKLED IF THAT CAR CAN GO 35 YEARS WITH NO TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, THEN THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE FOR A 2012 TRANSMISSION TO FAIL IN 8 YEARS.

THE TRANSMISSION HAS HAD ONGOING ISSUES SINCE MANUFACTURED. NISSAN HAS KNOWN OF THE ISSUE BUT HAS MADE PATCH WORK OF THE ISSUE INSTEAD OF REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION. SINCE THE RECALL DEADLINE WAS MAY 9,2020 THEY ARE RECOMMENDING THE TRANSMISSION TO BE REPLACED BUT UNWILLING TO REPAIR IT UNDER THE RECALL AT MY COST. IN GOOD FAITH OF THE COMPANY, THEY KNEW OF THE ISSUE AND SHOULD COVER THE MAJORITY OF THE COST AND I WAS WILLINGLY TO PAY A PORTION HOWEVER THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO HELP. I WAS UNABLE TO TAKE THE CAR TO THEIR SHOP BEFORE THE DEADLINE DUE TO THE GOVERNMENT LOCKDOWN. THE CODE THAT THE ALWAYS COMES UP ON WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON IS P0486. THE HAVE REPLACE THE VALVE BODY AND REPROGRAMMED SEVERAL TIMES BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON AND THE REPROGRAM IT AND DID NOT WANT TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION UNTIL AFTER THEIR RECALL WAS EXPIRED. I HAVE BARELY PUT 4300 MILES ON IT SINCE THE PATCH JOB THEY DID. THEY SAID THAT THIS PATCH WOULD CORRECT THE ISSUE AND THE SAME ISSUE SHOULD NOT HAPPEN AGAIN.THIS IS MY DAILY DRIVER AND THE LIGHT WOULD STAY ON BUT WENT OFF PRIOR TO MY FIRST VISIT IN JUNE BUT ON THREE DAYS LATER. THE DEALERSHIP COULDN?T GET ME IN UNTIL JUNE 10. *TR

THERE WAS EVEN A RECALL FOR THE PREVIOUS MODEL YEARS. NISSAN HAS NOT FIXED THE ISSUE AND CAR'S TRANSMISSION IS JUNK. I'M OUT BIG MONEY AND THEY ARE LIKELY TO RECOMMEND MORE "FIXES" FOR THE ISSUE.

WHEN SITTING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AT STOP LIGHTS, MY CAR WOULD AUTOMATICALLY TURN OFF CAUSING THE NEED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, TO WHICH POINT SOMETIMES IT WOULD TURN ON AND SOMETIMES IT WOULDN'T. THERE WERE ALSO TIMES THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL OR PULL BACK WHILE SLOWING DOWN AND SPEEDING UP IN TRAFFIC. I VISITED MIDAS TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED AND AFTER DIAGNOSIS, THEY ATTEMPTED TO SAVE THE TRANSMISSION BY REPLACING THE FLUID. THIS ATTEMPT WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL AND THEY DETERMINED THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A FAIRLY NEW CAR AND SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE. THERE IS A TRANSMISSION RECALL FOR A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT MODEL OF THE NISSAN VERSA 2012, BUT NOT THE NISSAN VERSA SL 2012. THIS SHOULD ALSO BE ON THE RECALL LIST.

THE CVT TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND GIVES UNEVEN ACCELERATION UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN MERGING INTO TRAFFIC OR TURNING INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO NISSAN NA & MANY LAWSUITS HAVE BEEN FILED OVER THE YEARS. THE FIRST TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AT 20,000 MILES & ANOTHER WAS JUST REPLACED AT 85,000 MILES. NISSAN KNOWS THAT THEY ARE PROVIDING AN INFERIOR PRODUCT, BASED ON THE # OF LAWSUITS IT HAS FACED OVER THE YEARS CONCERNING THE CVT. NOT ONLY IS THE PRODUCT UNRELIABLE, IT IS ALSO DANGEROUS TO THE DRIVER, THE VEHICLE'S OCCUPANTS AND ANYONE ELSE WHO MAY AFFECTED BY AN ACCIDENT CAUSED BY CVT FAILURE.

THEN COULD NOT PRESS GAS PEDAL AND MAINTAIN SPEED TO GET OFF ROAD IN A EXCESSABLE AREA WHICH ALMOST CAUSED ACCIDENT BY OTHERS NOT REALIZING THERE WAS A PROBLEM AND IT DID HAPPEN QUICKLY SO OTHERS HAD LITTLE TIME TO RESPOND.

I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP RIGHT AWAY, AND THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION. THIS COST MORE THAN $3,000 AND A 5 YEAR VEHICLE SHOULD NOT HAVE THE TRANSMISSION GO BAD, AND IT COULD HAVE KILLED US IF THE VEHICLES DIDN'T AVOID HITTING US ON THE ROAD WHEN IT STALLED.

VCT TRANSMISSION FAILURE, TRANSMISSION WILL FAIL WITH NO WARNING, THIS IS A DEADLY FLAW IN THE DESIGN OF THE TRANSMISSION, HUNDREDS COMPLAINTS ONLINE ATTEST TO THE NUMBER OF TRANSMISSION FAILURES IN DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. MY TRANSMISSION FAILED AT A BUSY INTERSECTION ON A MAJOR 4 LANE ROAD WE WERE ALMOST HIT BROADSIDE AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED THE OTHER DRIVER SWERVED TO MISS US AND I HAD TO PUSH THE CAR OUT OF TRAFFIC. THIS IS A POTENTIAL DEADLY CONDITION. I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN WAITING ON TRAFFIC WHEN TRAFFIC CLEARED I HIT THE ACCELERATOR THE CAR HESITATED AND SURGED ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND STOPPED IN THE TRAFFIC LANE WITH 65/70 MPH TRAFFIC COMING AT US. THE FIRST CAR SWERVED TO THE DITCH SIDE AND MISSED US THE REST OF THE TRAFFIC SAW WHAT HAPPENED AND STOPPED AND WENT AROUND. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSIONS IN NISSAN VEHICLES ESPECIALLY WITH THE VCT TRANSMISSION. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS EVEN DEADLY PROBLEM THAT HAS PLAGUED NISSAN FOR SEVERAL YEARS, THEY HAVE RECALLED SEVERAL MAKES OF NISSAN FOR TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS BUT REFUSE TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY ISSUE AND REFUSE TO CORRECT THE FAULTY TRANSMISSION PROBLEM, THIS PROBLEM IS POTENTIALLY AS BAD AS THE PINTO FIRES, HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE DIED IN A CVT NISSAN THAT WE DO NOT KNOW ABOUT MY WIFE AND I WERE JUST YARDS FROM DEATH BECAUSE OF THIS TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND NISSAN NEEDS TO BE REMEDY THE SITUATION.

I BOUGHT RECENTLY 2012 NISSAN VERSA CAR WITH THEIR CVT TRANSMISSION. NOT EVEN AFTER 6 MONTHS OF USING THE CAR, IT COMPLETELY WENT OUT. THE DEALERSHIP OFFERED TO REPLACE IT FOR $4300, WHICH IS ABOUT THE SAME AS MARKET VALUE OF THE CAR. AFTER READING MORE ONLINE, I FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS REALLY COMMON ISSUE AND THIS TRANSMISSIONS GO OUT VERY OFTEN. ON TOP OF THAT THEY CAN'T BE REBUILD. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THEIR FAULTY TRANSMISSIONS AND THEY HAD RECALLS ON DIFFERENT MODELS, BUT ARE STILL AVOIDING ON THIS ONE. THEY ALSO HAVE SOME SOFTWARE ISSUE, THAT CAN CAUSE PROBLEMS WITH PRESSURE WHEN CHANGING GEARS BETWEEN D AND L. WE WERE ABOUT TO GET THE ADVISED UPDATED LAST SATURDAY, UNFORTUNATELY THE CAR DIDN'T MAKE IT. THE OFFICIAL LETTER STATES THAT IT COULD LOWER THE DURABILITY OF THE TRANSMISSION, THEY DIDN'T WANT TO ADMIT IT ON THE PHONE. MY CASE WAS EVALUATED BY SUMMER, FROM HQ AND GOT NOTIFIED BY HER THAT NISSAN, WON'T HELP IN ANY WAY.

WITHIN 2 YEARS OF THE PURCHASE I BROUGHT THIS PROBLEM TO THE ATTENTION OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHILE THE TRANSMISSION WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD EACH TIME THAT THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG.

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.

JUNE 4, 2016, WHILE DRIVING ALONG 118 E FREEWAY I AM SEEING THAT MY RPM IS GOING UP AND DOWN AND THE CAR IS JERKING SPEED. I MERGED TO 405 S IN ABOUT 5 MINS. I WAS GETTING OFF 405 S FREEWAY FROM RAMP. THEN TRAVELLING NORTH ALONG HASKELL AVE, MY 2012 NISSAN VERSA JUST STOPPED MAKING A RATTLING NOISE IN TRANSMISSION. ALL THE CARS BEHIND ME JUST STOPPED. I SLOWLY EASED THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET. TURNED OFF THE ENGINE THINKING THAT I'M DONE. AFTER SITTING FOR 2 MINUTES I TRIED TURNING IT ON AGAIN BECAUSE I HAVE TO PICK UP MY SON WAITING AT LAX FLYWAWAY ALONG GLORIA STREET. MYSTERIOUSLY THE CAR STARTED TO MOVE FORWARD AGAIN. I PICKED UP MY SON AND DROVE SLOWLY TO SIMI VALLEY CA STILL WITH MY RPM GOING UP AND DOWN AT TIMES. WE ARRIVED AT HOME IN SIMI VALLEY, CA OK. WE STOPPED USING THE CAR FOR A WEEK UNTIL I HAVE IT CHECKED BY NISSAN DEALER ON JUNE 14, 2016. THEY SAID THEY DID NOT SEE ANYTHING WRONG UPON TESTING. I HAD THEM SERVICE THE CVT TRANSMISSION. I TOOK THE CAR BACK FROM THE DEALER 06/15/2016. ON 6/20/2016, WHILE DRIVING TO CHURCH, WE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM WHERE THE TRANSMISSION STALLED. SAME AS BEFORE, RPM AT 0 AND WE HAVE STOP THE CAR AND SLOWLY PUSHED THE PEDAL AGAIN AND IT ENGAGED UNTIL WE PARKED AT THE PARKING LOT. COMING HOME FROM CHURCH, WE HAVE NO PROBLEM. MY WIFE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM THE DAY BEFORE. IT SEEMS THAT NISSAN KNOWS THIS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM BECAUSE OF SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FROM CAR OWNERS.

WHEN I POPPED THE HOOD OPEN I NOTICED THE MY COOLANT RESERVOIR TANK WAS BONE DRY. I FOUND SOME COOLANT IN MY GARAGE AND IMMEDIATELY ADDED IT TO THE RESERVOIR TO GET IT DOWN TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH NO ISSUE. THE FOLLOWING DAY I BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TRYING TO EXPLAIN MY SITUATION. THE SERVICE TECH LOOKED AT THE CAR AND KEPT SAYING THAT THE TANK WAS FULL AND THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT EVEN THOUGH I EXPLAINED THAT I ADDED SOME TO GET IT THERE. THEY FINALLY TOOK MY CAR BACK AND HAD IT FOR 2 DAYS. WHEN I CAME DOWN TO PICK IT UP THAT SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. THEY SAID THEY PRESSURE TESTED THE COOLING SYSTEM AND FOUND NO LEEKS AND TOLD ME I WAS IMAGING THING AS FAR AS THE STUTTER WITH MY TRANNY. AT APPROXIMATELY 32K AGAIN I WAS LOW (1/4 FULL) ON COOLANT AND THE STUTTER STILLED HAPPENED INTERMITTINGLY. AGAIN I TOOK IT DOWN TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY HAD IT FOR ABOUT 2 DAYS AND WHEN I GOT IT BACK THEY TOLD ME THE SAME THING. AT APPROX. 38K THE STUTTERING HAD GOTTEN WORSE AND THERE WOULD BE TIMES THAT ID PRESS THE ACCELERATOR AND NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN FOR ABOUT 5-10 SECONDS. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE TRANNY ONLY THIS TIME.

I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND MANY 2012 VERSAS WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE, SOME HAVE EVEN STALLED WHILE ON A HIGHWAY. WHY IS NISSAN NOT DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THIS? I TRIED TO PULL OUT AT A RED LIGHT AND EVEN THOUGH I DEPRESSED THE GAS PEDAL, MY CAR DID NOT MOVE, THE RPMS DID NOT CHANGE.

I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT THAT I PURCHASED A NISSAN VERSA ON APRIL 5, 2015. THE NIGHT I DROVE IT HOME I NOTICED A FEW PROBLEMS: FIRST: THE SEAT BELT LIGHT STAYS ON UNLESS BOTH FRONT SEATS ARE BUCKLED EVEN IF THE DRIVE IS THE ONLY PERSON IN THE VEHICLE. THIS IS CAUSE FOR THE VEHICLE TO NOT PASS STATE INSPECTION AND THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM IS TELLING ME THEY TOOK THE CAR TO TWO DIFFERENT NISSAN DEALERSHIPS AND THIS IS PROPER FUNCTION FOR THE NISSAN VERSA. THE MECHANIC FROM THE INSPECTION STATION AND I EACH CALLED NISSAN DEALERSHIPS AS WELL AND EACH OF THE DEALERSHIPS WE SPOKE WITH SAID THIS IS IN FACT INCORRECT AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. SECOND: THE CAR IS NOT ACCELERATING OR SHIFTING (ATLEAST THAT IS HOW I DESCRIBED IT). I TRIED TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC AND RPM'S MOVED WAY UP BUT THE CAR HESITATED TO MOVE FORWARD ONCE IT STARTED TO MOVE I HAD TO PUT ON THE BRAKES BECAUSE TRAFFIC WAS TOO CLOSE. I DROVE IT TO WEST VIRGINIA WITH MY YOUNG SONS IN TOW AND IT COULD NOT KEEP UP WITH THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC AND CONTINUED TO GET WORSE THE LONGER WE WERE ON THE ROAD OR ON AN INCLINE. THE SPEED LIMIT WAS 70 MPH ON INTERSTATE 70 AND IT TOOK A LONG TIME TO GET UP TO SPEED. WHEN THERE WAS AN INCLINE (WE WERE IN THE MOUNTAINS) THE RPM'S WOULD GO UP TO 4,000- 4,500 BUT THE CAR WOULD STAY AT 60 MPH AND LOSE SPEED. THE DEALERSHIP CALLED ME AND WAS VERY CONDESCENDING LETTING ME KNOW THEY COULD FIND NO PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR. THEY WILL NOT EVEN FIX THE SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT EVEN THOUGH I CAN NOT GET MY HARD TAGS FOR THE CAR.

THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THE CVT TRANSMISSION ON-LINE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 NISSAN VERSA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 50 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION HESITATED BETWEEN SHIFTING AND THE ENGINE RPMS REVVED. THE TRANSMISSION WOULD SHIFT GEARS VIOLENTLY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO JERK. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE WAS GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORST. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 68,000.

DRIVING ON I-5 NORTH OF SAN DIEGO AND CAR WILL NO LONGER ACCELERATE, RPM GOING INTO RED BUT NO ACCELERATION. CAR SLOWED TO 40'S THEN 30'S THEN STOPPED ALTOGETHER. HAD TO BE TOWED. CLEARLY A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL. I GAVE THIS CAR TO MY DAUGHTER BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE AND RELIABLE.

WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP AT AN INTERSECTION THE VEHICLES WOULD NOT MOVE. YOU PRESS THE PEDAL AND IT DOES NOT THROTTLE UP OR MOVE AT ALL LEAVING US EXPOSED TO TRAFFIC. AFTER THE CAR SAT FOR 1 HOUR WE WERE ABLE TO DRIVE IT BUT THEN THE RPM BEGAN TO FLUCTUATE BETWEEN 2000 AND 4000 RPM AND YOU COULD FEEL THE VEHICLE SPEED UP AND SLOW DOWN WITHOUT ANY MOVEMENT OF THE THROTTLE. THIS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES SO WE TOOK IT TO A SHOP. THE DIAGNOSED THIS AS A BAD TRANSMISSION WHICH THEY STATED WAS COMMON ON FOR THIS TYPE OF CVT TRANSMISSION. I REVIEWED THE TRANSMISSION AND COMPLAINTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE NISSAN CVT BUILT BY JATCO AND QUALITY ISSUES EXIST. NISSAN EXTENDED THE WARRANTIES ON THE 2010 MODELS WHEN THE 2012 THROUGH 2015 MODELS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AND FAILURES POTENTIALLY LEAVING YOU STRANDED OR WORSE IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION ABOUT TO GET WHACKED BY A SEMI. NISSAN REFUSED TO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE STATING THAT THERE IS NO ISSUE. THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THAT LOGIC IS MR. GHOSN, CEO NNA, STATE IN DECEMBER 2013 THAT JATCO HAD SIGNIFICANT ISSUES WITH THEIR QUALITY OF PRODUCT. A PRODUCT THAT CAN LEAVE YOU OR YOUR CHILDREN IN A BAD WAY TRYING TO NAVIGATE TRAFFIC. SO MY POINT TO ALL OF THIS, NISSAN IS WELL AWARE OF THE ISSUES WITH THEIR CVT TRANSMISSION BUT REFUSE TO MAKE IT RIGHT

CVT BELT SLIPPING CVT TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACED. CAR HAS 66852 MILES ON IT JUST 6852 MILES OVER WARRANTY AND TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACED. DID RESEARCH AND THIS PROBLEM IS CONTINUOUSLY OCCURS WITH NISSAN VERSASO ANDNISSA REFUSING TO FIX THE ISSUE

TRANSMISSION RECALL BUT NOTHING SENT TO TELL US TELLING US THAT THERE WAS A RECALL. WE WERE TOLD IT IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO CALL THEM. WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH WITH CHILDREN IN THE CAR THE CAR JUST STOPPED GOING FORWARD AND STARTED TO COAST TO A STOP. LUCKILY WE WERE ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BEFORE BEING TAIL ENDED AND POSSIBLY KILLED. AFTER TAKING THE CAR TO THE DEALER WE WERE TOLD ALL WAS OK BUT WHEN LEAVING IT WAS APPARENT THE PROBLEM STILL WAS THERE AFTER WE DROVE SOME DISTANCE. TOOK THE CAR BACK IN A COUPLE DAYS AND THEN WE WERE TOLD IT WOULD COST 4200 TO REPAIR BECAUSE IT WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL AND THERE WERE TO MANY MILES ON THE CAR. TRADED THE CAR IN AT AN ENTERPRISE AFTER TELLING THEM ABOUT OUR TROUBLE; THEY LOOKED UP THE VIN # AND SAID IT WASN'T REPAIRED AS THE RECALL REQUIRED. LOST A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF MONEY BUT WAS MUCH MORE CONCERNED WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR A DEADLY ACCIDENT.

I GOT IN THE CAR AND DROVE TO THE STORE. WHEN I TRYED TO LEAVE THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE, THE ENGINE WINED BUT IT DID NOT INGAGE THE TRANS. I WAS AT A STOP IN A PARKING LOT THANK GOD, BUT WE JUST DROVE BACK FROM A LONG TRIP YESTERDAY. THEY SAY MY VIN IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL.

I TOOK THE CAR FOR A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION AND TWO MONTHS LATTER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE CAR WHEN DRIVING 60 MPH WILL JUST DECREASES IN SPEED UNTIL IT STOPS THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SHIP AND WAS TOLD THE SPEED SENSOR INSIDE THE TRANSMISSION WAS BAD. TO FIX THE PROBLEM THE TRANSMISSION MUST BE REPLACED. THE CAR HAS 78, 987 MILES ON IT, I WAS LOOKING ON LINE AND FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE CVT TRANSMISSION USED BY NISSAN. MOST COMPLAINTS SAID AFTER THE DEALER REPAIRED THE RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION IT FAILED. WHAT IS THE PROCESS OF FILING A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST NISSAN MOTOR CORPORATION?

I HAD THE 60,000 SERVICE DONE ON THIS CAR AT MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP ON DEC 14, 2015. PART OF THAT SERVICE INVOLVED INSPECTING THE CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION FLUID. APPARENTLY IT WAS OK. SIX DAYS LATER MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING IT TO NEW ORLEANS AND IT STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE. LUCKILY, NOBODY WAS CLOSE BEHIND HER AND SHE WAS ABLE TO DRIFT IT TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. WE HAD IT TOWED TO A NEW ORLEANS AREA DEALER AND ARE BEING TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $3900. WE WERE ALSO TOLD THAT THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND NISSAN WOULD NOT HELP WITH THE REPAIR. THIS IS A 4 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 65,000 MILES ON IT. A QUICK SEARCH OF THE INTERNET SHOWS SEVERAL PEOPLE ALSO HAVING TRANSMISSION FAILURES AT ABOUT THAT SAME MILEAGE. SEVERAL HAVE HAD THE CAR STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY JUST LIKE MINE DID.

MY CAR HAS A LITTLE OVER 56,000 MILES ON IT AND SINCE HAVING THIS CAR I HAVE HAD SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THIS CAR. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR OF THE MASS AIR FLOW AND RELATED COMPONENTS ON 3 SEPARATE OCCASIONS. I HAVE HAD 1 CVT TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT AND KNOWS SEEMS LIKE SOMETHING IS GOING ON WITH THE SUSPENSION. AFTER DOING RESEARCH, I HAVE FOUND SEVERAL COMPLAINTS AND A SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THIS SAME ISSUES WHICH IS SASID TO BE THE SPRING COILS. THIS IS RIDICULOUS TO HAVE THIS MANY ISSUES WITH A CAR THAT IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND LESS THAN 60,000 MILES ON IT. NISSAN NEEDS TO OFFER EVERY CUSTOMERS THAT OWNS THIS CAR A REPLACEMENT CAR.SERIOUSLY!!! NOT TO MENTION ALL THE OTHER RECALLS THAT NEVER GET ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR VIN BUT, STILL HAS THE ISSUES.

PRE OWNED VEHICLE HAS A FAILED TRANSMISSION SHIFT ASSEMBLY (POWER TRAIN) WHICH WAS NOT ADDRESSED PROPERLY DURING THE RECALL REPAIR DONE PRIOR TO CURRENT OWNER TAKING POSSESSION OF THE VEHICLE.NISSAN NOW STATES THAT THE "CAMPAIGN IS CLOSED OUT AND NOTHING CAN BE DONE ON THIS" HOWEVER., THEY DID OFFER$250 FOR THE CONSUMERS" INCONVENIENCE." WHICH WAS STRANGE SINCE..WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS IF IT IS NOT AN ISSUE?AND DID SAY THAT THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN 5 YRS(60000) AND REFERRED ME TO CONSUMER AFFAIRS. ALSO STRANGE. AFTER READING YOUR WEBSITE, I DECIDED TO REPORT THIS DIRECTLY TO YOU AS THEY ARE NOW TECHNICALLY NON-COMPLIANT ON THIS GOVERNMENT RECALL AS THEY REFUSE TO ADDRESS THE APPROPRIATE REPAIR. NISSAN IS TRYING TO "WRITE THIS OFF" AS A CLOSED CAMPAIGN AS THE SHIFT KNOB WAS REPLACED PRIOR TO CURRENT OWNER TAKING POSSESSION(2012); EVEN THOUGH A NEW INDEPENDENT DEALER , NOT INVOLVED IN ORIGINAL RECALL WORK;HAS RECENTLY STATED THAT CONSUMER SHOULD SEEK ASSISTANCE UNDER THIS RECALL FROM NISSAN AND THAT THE CAR ABSOLUTELY NEEDS THE SHIFT ASSEMBLY. YOUR WEBSITE STATES THAT THE KNOB AND ASSEMBLY SHOULD BE REPLACED UNDER THIS CAMPAIGN( RECALL 12V032000)NISSAN IS REFUSING TO COVER THIS ASSEMBLY (ESTIMATE ATTACHED)WHICH WAS PART OF THE ORIGINAL RECALL. AUTOMATIC SHIFTER IS CURRENTLY UNABLE TO GO INTO PARK. AND IS BEING PARKED IN NEUTRAL WHICH POSES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY RISK. NISSAN CORPORATE CONSUMER AFFAIRS WAS VERY "SHADY" ABOUT TELLING ME "WHO I WAS SPEAKING WITH, WHERE THEY ARE LOCATED, OPERATOR ID,NAME OF REP, OR ANY IDENTIFYING INFORMATION WHILE SPEAKING WITH THE REGIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE PERSON ON THE PHONE.THE ONLY INFORMATION I WAS GIVEN WAS P3C AS THEIR "AREA" IN FRANKLIN TN.

I BOUGHT A 2012 NISSAN VERSA IN 2012 BRAND NEW. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BECAUSE OF NISSANS RELIABILITY AND THE CAR GOT GREAT GAS MILEAGE. I HAD REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE, BUT NOT AT THE DEALERSHIP. IN LATE SEPTEMBER 2015 WHEN THE CAR HAD ABOUT 70,000 MILES ON IT IT STARTED RANDOMLY JERKING WHEN DRIVING. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THE TRANSMISSION HAD WENT OUT AND IT WOULD COST ME $3,500 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION WITH A 1 YEAR WARRANTY. THE VERSA HAS A CVT TRANSMISSION AND THEY SAID THE FLUID SHOULD HAVE BEEN CHANGED AT 60,000 MILES AND PROBABLY GOT TO HOT AND BROKE DOWN. THE WARRANTY WAS FOR 5 YEARS OR 60,000 MILES. HERE ARE MY ISSUES: I WAS NEVER TOLD WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR THAT THE CVT TRANSMISSION FLUID NEEDS CHANGED EVERY 60,000 MILES. I WAS TOLD AFTER THE TRANSMISSION WAS RUINED THAT IT SHOULD BE. I HAD THE CAR IN THE DEALERSHIP AT 63,000 FOR A RECALL AND NO ONE MENTIONED IT. I HAVE DRIVEN FOR 25 YEARS AND NEVER HAD TO CHANGE TRANSMISSION FLUID IN PRIOR VEHICLES THE CAR NEVER HAD ANY KIND OF WARNING LIGHT TO LET ME KNOW THERE WAS A PROBLEM AND I TOOK IT IN ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER THIS STARTED HAPPENING. I FOUND OUT THAT THE CVT TRANSMISSION IS A KNOWN ISSUES AND IN 2010 THEY WERE COVERED BY A 6 YEAR 120,000 MILES WARRANTY MEANING SOMEONE WHO HAS A CAR 2 YEARS OLDER THAN MINE STILL HAS A WARRANTY. I DROVE THIS CARE EVERY MILE MYSELF AND I DROVE IT LIKE A 90 YEAR OLD MAN. IN THE END I HAD TO SPEND $4,004 ON A NEW TRANSMISSION ON A 3 YEAR OLD CAR. I MADE 2 CASES TO NISSAN AND A REGIONAL MANAGER CALLED ME AND SAID THERE IS NOTHING NISSAN CAN DO. TO ME THERE IS NO LOGICAL EXPLANATION WHY THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT, WHY THERE IS NO SYSTEM THAT WOULD LET ME KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM BEFORE IT IS RUINED, AND WHY I WAS NEVER INFORMED THAT THE FLUID SHOULD BE CHANGED.

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK IN OUR 2012 NISSAN VERSA. HE WAS ON THE HIGHWAY TRAVELING THROUGH A CONSTRUCTION ZONE AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY CUT OUT ON HIM. HE PUMPED THE GAS PEDAL BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 20 MPH. HE PULLED THE CAR OFF AT THE CLOSEST EXIT. IT WAS TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS EVALUATED. WE WERE NOTFIED THAT A TOTAL TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT WAS NECESSARY. I CONTACTED NISSAN AND WAS INFORMED THAT NISSAN TOOK NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE BECAUSE THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. HOWEVER, IN THE SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE PROVIDED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL THE FIRST TRANSMISSION RELATED MAINTENANCE DOES NOT OCCUR UNTIL 60,000 WHEN THEY RECOMMEND CHECKING THE TRANSMISSION FLUID. NISSAN CLAIMS THEY HAVE NO WAY OF VERIFYING THAT VEHICLE MAINTENANCE WAS COMPLETED BECAUSE WE DID NOT HAVE THE MAINTENANCE COMPLETED AT A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. I OFFERED TO PROVIDE OUR RECORDS OF MAINTENANCE FROM OUR PROVIDER BUT NISSAN WAS NOT INTERESTED IN SEEING THEM. I SPOKE TO THREE DIFFERENT NISSAN ASSIST REPRESENTATIVES. FINALLY, I WAS INFORMED BY THE LAST REPRESENTATIVE THAT THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE TO WHICH I COULD PETITION MY CASE. IN SUMMARY, IF YOU HAVE A NISSAN VERSA YOU SHOULD EXPECT TO REPLACE YOUR ENTIRE TRANSMISSION WHEN THE VEHICLE IS THREE YEARS OLD. IN THE PAST, NISSAN HAS EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE ON VERSA MODEL YEARS 2003-2010 FOR ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION. I THINK A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT STILL EXISTS IN THEIR TRANSMISSIONS. I THINK THIS DEFECT WAS THE CAUSE OF OUR TOTAL TRANSMISSION FAILURE. I JUST HOPE THAT NO ONE IS KILLED WHEN THEIR TRANSMISSION FAILS THEM IN THE MIDDLE OF RUSH HOUR.

ONCE IT DOES "CATCH", THE RPM'S HIT ABOUT 7000 OR 8000 AND WHEN YOU LET OFF THE PEDAL THE CAR JERKS HARD AND GOES INTO "LIMP MODE". IT DID THIS SEVENTEEN (17) TIMES AND 6 OF THEM WERE ON THE INTERSTATE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. I ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED BY A CAR COMING UP BEHIND ME BECAUSE I COULDN'T MOVE THE CAR OUT OF THE ROAD IN TIME. I HAD TO SHUT THE CAR OFF, WAIT A FEW SECONDS AND TURN IT BACK ON TO GET IT TO MOVE AND EVEN THEN IT STAYED IN LIMP MODE SO I WAS STUCK IN FIRST (1ST) GEAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERY DAY UNTIL I FINALLY TOOK IT INTO THE SHOP AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION.

THE TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY WENT OUT OF THE CAR. IT WOULD SLOW DOWN, I HAD TO STOP, TURN IT OFF, WAIT, TURN IT BACK ON, DRIVE A LITTLE BIT, REPEAT. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS CAR AND THE CVT TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS, YET NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED TO DATE. WHEN YOU BUY A NEW CAR, THE KNOWN ISSUES AREN'T OUT YET BECAUSE THERE HASN'T BEEN TIME ENOUGH TO GATHER ANY STATISTICS. THE DEALERSHIP NOR NISSAN CORPORATION WAS WILLING TO ASSIST US. WE PROVIDED SERVICE RECORDS AND THEY DEEMED THEM 'INSUFFICIENT' BECAUSE THE SERVICE WAS NOT PERFORMED THROUGH NISSAN. HOWEVER, IT IS NOT MANDATED THAT OIL CHANGES AND TIRE ROTATIONS BE COMPLETED AT THEIR SITE. THEY ALSO STATED THAT THE OIL PUT INTO THE CAR MIGHT NOT BE MADE FOR A NISSAN VEHICLE. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I'VE EVER HEARD OF AN OIL BEING MADE FOR A SPECIFIC BRAND OF CAR. THE TRANSMISSION WASN'T DUE TO BE SERVICED UNTIL BETWEEN 60,000 AND 70,000 MILES, AND WE HAD JUST TURNED 60,000 THE WEEK BEFORE. PLUS, ENGINE OIL HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH A TRANSMISSION, IT HAS TO DO WITH THE ENGINE. WE ARE STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON THE CAR. IF WE PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THE REPAIRS, AND ADD TO WHAT WE STILL OWE, NOW THE CAR COSTS MORE THAN WHAT WE BOUGHT IT FOR BRAND NEW.

THIS COULD HAVE BEEN DEADLY IF I WAS BACKING OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE AND NOT INTO IT. ONCE I HIT THE WALL THE BRAKES CAME BACK ON. SINCE THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE INCIDENT THEY SAID IT NEVER HAPPENED. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE BRAKES TO FAIL AS THEY ARE A CABLE SYSTEM. I ALSO CONTACTED NISSAN MOTOR CORP DIRECTLY AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS NOT A WARRANTY ISSUE AND I WOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH MY INSURANCE AND PAY THE DEDUCTIBLE. I HAD MENTIONED TO THE NISSAN DEALER PREVIOUSLY THAT I THOUGHT THE BRAKES WERE FUNNY PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT AS THEY WOULD ROUTINELY GO TO THE FLOOR IF I WAS TRAVELING AT SLOW SPEEDS. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS NORMAL OPERATION. *JS

TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACE. NISSAN REFUSES TO REPAIR SINCE THE CAR IS ONLY 7000 MILES OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY. THE 2007-2010 VERSA HAD THE SAME ISSUES AND WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED TO 120,000 MILES ITS THE SAME CAR SAME MODEL AND WAS TOLD BY NISSAN THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO COVER REPAIRS SINCE I PURCHASE THE VEHICLE WITH A WARRANTY AT 60,000. WHEN ASK HOW LONG IS THE TRANSMISSION SUPPOSE TO LAST ON 2012 NISSAN VERSA THE ANSWER WAS " I DON'T KNOW THAT'S A RHETORICAL QUESTION." THE VERSUS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES AND NISSAN REFUSES TO FIX OR PAY TO REPAIR A DEFECTED CAR. *TR

TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS VERSA WAS PART OF THE RECALL FOR TRANSMISSION SAFETY. NISSAN REFUSES TO COVER THE REPLACEMENT BECAUSE IT WAS 4000 MILES OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY. I DO NOT BELIEVE ALL THE KINKS ARE WORKED OUT. I RECOMMEND NOT PURCHASING A NISSAN. *TR

THIS IS A FOLLOWUP TO NHTSA ID NUMBER: 10565392: THE MORNING OF MARCH 21, 2014, MY DAD DIED. I FOUND OUT AT ABOUT NOON, WENT HOME TO MAKE PLANE RESERVATIONS AND PACK, THEN DROVE TO THE NEAREST AIRPORT, ABOUT AN HOUR AND A HALF AWAY, MOSTLY INTERSTATE. LESS THAN AN HOUR IN, I STARTED HAVING TROUBLE, SO I STOPPED TO EAT LUNCH AND LET THE CVT COOL. SHORTLY AFTER I STARTED OUT AGAIN, ONE EXIT BEFORE THE AIRPORT EXIT, THE CAR SUDDENLY DROPPED TO 40MPH -- IN A 70MPH ZONE -- AND KEPT LOSING POWER. I HAD BARELY ENOUGH POWER TO GET OFF THE FREEWAY AND COAST INTO A GAS STATION. I HAD IT TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALER, RENTED A CAR, RESCHEDULED MY FLIGHT FOR THE NEXT DAY, AND BOOKED A ROOM IN A HOTEL. I WAS GONE FOR OVER A WEEK. IT TOOK A WHOLE WEEK FOR THE DEALER JUST TO GET PERMISSION TO REPLACE THE CVT AFTER THE MECHANIC "PULLED CVT OIL PAN AND FOUND EXCESSIVE METAL SHAVINGS IN PAN AND INSIDE TRANSMISSION", SO I HAD TO RENT ANOTHER CAR TO GET HOME AND TO WORK THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THE INVOICE ONLY SAID "ALL NISSAN GENUINE PARTS CARRY A 12 MONTH/12,000 MILE WARRANTY", SO I ASKED IF THAT WAS THE CASE FOR THE CVT AS WELL. THE RESPONSE WAS SO OUTRAGEOUS, I ASKED FOR IT IN WRITING. I WAS TOLD THAT, IF I HAD BOUGHT AN SUV, THE CVT WOULD BE WARRANTIED FOR 120,000 MILES, BUT AS I OWNED A VERSA, IT WAS ONLY WARRANTIED FOR 20.5 MONTHS OR 60,000 MILES, WHICHEVER CAME FIRST. I HAD ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR ABOUT 1.5 YEARS BEFORE THE ORIGINAL CVT STARTED TO GO. IT DIED AT 2 YEARS 4 MONTHS AND 34,167 MILES, WHICH MEANS THIS CVT IS WARRANTIED TO LAST LESS TIME AND MILEAGE THAN THE ORIGINAL. IT ALSO MEANS THE CAR IS INTENDED TO LAST LESS THAN THE 5 YEARS IT WILL HAVE TAKEN TO PAY OFF THE LOAN. *TR

NISSAN VERSA 2012. THIS IS MY SECOND CVT TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. I RECEIVED THE FIRST TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT IN DECEMBER 2013 AND IT HAS BROKEN AGAIN IN MAY 2014. THE VEHICLE GOT STUCK IN GEAR AND WOULD NOT SHIFT. IT ACCELERATED AND DECELERATED WITHOUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL. THE VEHICLE MADE FRONT END NOISES AND POPS LIKE IT WAS GOING TO FALL APART. IT'S VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE AIRBAG AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER AND GOT THE RUN AROUND. DON' T KNOW WHAT CAUSED THE PROBLEMS AND NEED MORE TIME TO RUN TEST. THE SECOND TRANSMISSION IS UNDER WARRANTY AND THE DEALER GAVE ME EVERY EXCUSE TO NOT FIX MY CAR. I WAS TOLD, BY THE DEALER, AFTER SEVEN DAYS OF WAITING ON REPAIRS, THAT THEY (DEALER) WERE WAITING FOR A RESPONSE FROM NISSAN HEADQUARTERS TO RUN TEST. FIX MY VEHICLE AND RUN ALL THE TEST YOU WANT BUT NOT AT MY SACRIFICE. THE DEALER SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT HELP ME WITH A RENTAL UNTIL NISSAN GAVE THE DEALER AN ANSWER AS FAR AS WHAT TEST TO RUN AND IF TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE, WHICH IS UNDER WARRANTY. THE DEALER JUST SAID, SORRY BUT WE CAN'T DO ANYTHING. IT WASN'T UNTIL NINE DAYS LATER THAT THE DEALER GAVE ME A RENTAL CAR, ONLY, AFTER MY DAD LIT THE FIRE. I WAS INCONVENIENCED GETTING OFF WORK, VERY LATE HOURS, WITH NO TRANSPORTATION. I INFORMED THE DEALER ABOUT MY LATE NIGHT DANGEROUS EXPERIENCES. IT SHOULD NOT TAKE, LET'S SEE, I'M ON DAY TWELVE AS OF THIS COMPLAINT TO FIX A WARRANTY PROBLEM. THESE CVT TRANSMISSIONS HAVE BEEN A LONG, ONGOING PROBLEM WITH NISSAN. THIS IS A NIGHTMARE FOR ALL NISSAN OWNERS AND NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR KNOWING ABOUT THESE ISSUES AND IGNORING THEIR ISSUES. NISSAN PUTS THE BLAME ON THE CAR OWNERS SO THAT THEY CAN PAY. THIS IS WRONG. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN A REPUTABLE COMPANY. NO LONGER REPUTABLE FOR ME.

JANUARY 2ND I WAS ASKED TO JUMPSTART A VEHICLE IN MY DRIVEWAY. APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES LATER MY NISSAN VERSA, WITH LESS THAN 33000 MILES, CAUGHT ON FIRE. THE CABLES WERE HOOKED UP CORRECTLY. PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT AND AT LEAST THREE TIMES, I HAD COMPLAINED OF A BURNING SMELL AFTER HIGHWAY DRIVING. I WAS TOLD BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY, I SHOULD BRING IT TO A NISSAN DEALER WHERE A LICENSED NISSAN MECHANIC COULD DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE. WHEN THE DEALER NEGLECTED TO DO SO, NISSAN NORTH AMERICA WAS CALLED IN TO DO AN INSPECTION. THEY COMPLETED THEIR INSPECTION AND WOULD NOT COVER THE EXPENSE OR RELEASE THE REPORT TO ME OR THE NISSAN DEALER. THEY OPTED TO KEEP THE INFORMATION UNDERCOVER. I BELIEVE IT IS RELATED TO THE RECALL ON THE SHIFTER RECALL. THIS MAY HAVE CAUSED THE TORQUE CONVERTER TO LEAK AND THE ENGINE TO CATCH ON FIRE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING 75 MPH (THE SPEED LIMIT) ON AS FLAT STRETCH OF TX190 WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST POWER. I WAS ONLY ABLE TO KEEP IT AT 60MPH BY PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR TO THE FLOOR. I WAS ONLY ABLE TO RESUME NORMAL DRIVING SPEED BY TAKING MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND THEN PRESSING IT TO THE FLOOR AGAIN. I'VE OWNED THIS CAR FOR 2 YEARS AND HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR FOR THE LAST 8 MONTHS. IT STARTED WITH A HESITATION AND SQUEAL WHEN I LIGHTLY TOUCHED THE ACCELERATOR TO ADJUST MY SPEED AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. TWO MONTHS AGO IT STARTED HESITATE-SURGE BEHAVIOR, LIKE IT WAS SEARCHING FOR THE RIGHT GEAR, AT FREEWAY SPEED LIMITS OR WHEN ACCELERATING TO FREEWAY OR CITY SPEED LIMITS. SOMETIMES IT'S SO STRONG I'M AFRAID I'M GOING TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. FROM WHAT I'VE READ ONLINE, NISSAN HAS HAD PROBLEMS WITH ITS CVT FOR YEARS, YET I'VE BEEN UNABLE TO GET 3 NISSAN DEALERS IN 3 DIFFERENT TOWNS TO SERVICE THIS PROBLEM. ONE SAID THEY COULDN'T REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. THE OTHER TWO WOULDN'T EVEN GIVE ME AN APPOINTMENT. THEY BASICALLY SAID THIS IS JUST HOW THIS TRANSMISSION WORKS, LIVE WITH IT. I HAVE THIS INCIDENT AND OTHERS ON DASHCAM FOOTAGE. *TR

2012 NISSAN VERSA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO SEVERAL ISSUES WITH VEHICLE AND QUALITY *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEFROSTER WAS A MAJOR CONCERN. IN ORDER TO TURN ON THE DEFROSTER, HE MUST TURN THE KNOB TO DEFROST, BUT ALSO SLIDE THE HORIZONTAL SWITCH UNDERNEATH THE DASH TO DEFROST AS WELL. THEN, HE HAD TO TURN THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE VENTS TOWARD THE GLASS, ALL WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THE DEFROSTER WORKED FAIR AT BEST.

HALF THE TIME, WHEN THE CONSUMER ATTEMPTED TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE, THE KEY DID NOT WANT TO COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. HE WOULD HAVE TO JIGGLE THE KEY AND THE SHIFT KNOB TO GET THE KEY OUT. THE AUTO DOOR LOCKS DID NOT UNLOCK WHEN HE PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TURNED OFF IN ORDER FOR THE AUTO DOORS TO UNLOCK. ALSO, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD EMIT A LOUD BANG, WHEN THE CONSUMER PUT THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE. *JB
