2014 Nissan Versa Problems

When continuing forward from a stop sign, the car has a slight shutter when accelerating. This was confirmed by an independent service center. Has not been inspected by the manufacturer. No visual warnings or prior symptoms. There was a recall for this particular issue for a 2014 Nissan Versa, but my VIN number was not included for which I believe should have been. My current mileage to date is 35,600.

At approximately 130K miles the CVT transmission had a sudden failure. Struggles to shift gears properly and often will pick a random one, which causes further damaged. Vehicle has sat for years, the transmission is unrepairable and a new unit must be installed which cost around $3500 for the transmission alone not including labor as told by the Nissan dealership. I now sit with a giant paper weight that is useless and worth nothing. Manufacturer should be held responsible as this issue exists and has been recalled in other models and years with the same transmission or issue.

The first incident, my car shut off as I was driving down the road. I had to put it in park in the middle of the road, start the car, and floor it to get there car to go. The second incident was after I took it in to Nissan. They said it was fixed, and two days after I picked it up, the car shut off on me as I was leaving a gas station, and the check engine light is back on.

CAR CUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT WARNING LIGHTS OR ENGINE LIGHTS. IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. CAR WAS IN MOTION BUT IN SLOW TRAFFIC. ALSO, BRAKES ALMOST STOPPED WORKING.

WHEN CAR IS IN MOTION THE BRAKES WILL NOT WORK AND IT SLIDES. THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS COME ON AND THE SPEEDOMETER JUMPS. I'VE HAD 2 MECHANICS LOOK AT IT AND THEY SAY ITS BECAUSE THE AXLE NUT BACKS OFF. TOOK IT TO GUNTER NISSAN ON 6/6/19 AND THEY REFUSED TO SERVICE IT SAYING I HAD TO CONTACT NISSAN CORPORATE BUT NISSAN CORPORATE SAYS I HAVE TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP.

I purchased my car 2 years ago from a used car dealership. It began to give me problems a few months after that. I then took my car to Nissan to be reprogrammed for free back when there was an open recall on my car when I found out it had too many miles for the warranty that would allow the transmission to be replaced. I've been driving it since and doing normal maintenance on it regularly. It recently began giving me trouble. I had to pull off the interstate because it would not accelerate and could have easily gotten into a car accident. I took it back to the dealership where they will be performing a diagnostic study on the car.

the problem in my car is ethier the transmission or transmission control module. The transmission started slipping and then suddenly on the hey of 395 north bound it simply just wouldn't do anything it had no reaction at all right in the middle of the freeway and there I was stuck people at 65-70 miles an hour whizzing by me not to mention simi trucks.tge reason I am writing is I looked up the problem at it is a very common problem with this year and make of the car. I went to nissan here in reno nv and they will not honor the recall sayes it is because of a branded title. The car had been wrecked only damaging the front bumper. Nothing to the motor or transmission was rebuilt but because it had previously been turned in as an insurance claim nissan of reno will NOT honor the recall. Any damage that was done was cosmetic not to the motor or transmission. I would like to know if nissan should honor the recalls on my vehicle. It has 98,000 miles on it and falls under the 10 year under 120,000 miles. The service person I talked to treated me like I was dumb and pretty much pushed me out the door and told me that they don't have to honor it. I am tempted to get ahold of previous owner to see if his insurance claim had anything to do with this transmission issue. It has one complaint after another on YouTube over this very issue. Please help me I don't know what to do. Thank you.

Vehicle was involved in a frontal impact crash, passenger side airbag popped out of the dashboard, but did not inflate, causing significant injury to the passenger of the vehicle. A police report was filed, but it is not available yet. It takes up to 10 business days from date of accident.

I WENT TO MY JOB INTERVIEW THEN TOOK IT STRAIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP I'M PURCHASING IT FROM LOYDS USED AUTOMOTIVE WHERE THEY SENT ME TO CHAPMAN'S AUTOMOTIVE THESE PLACES ARE LOCATED IN HOT SPRINGS ARKANSAS WHERE ALL OF THIS OCCURRED. I LATER TRIED TO CALL THE WARRANTY PHONE NUMBER BACK AND IT SAID NOBODY WAS AVAILABLE TO TAKE MY CALL.

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.

MY CAR JERKS WHEN I PUT IT IN DRIVE. ALSO, WHEN I LET PUSH FOR THE GAS, IT JERKS. THIS IS WHEN I FIRST GET OFF THE GAS. THEN WHEN I GET TO FOURTY MILES, IT JERKS AGAIN.

THEN, I TOOK IT TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC. HE CHECKED IT WITH HIS MACHINE, HE SAID IT IS MY TRANSMISSION. I FEEL NISSAN SHOULD FIX MY TRANSMISSION.

We have had this car since 2017 and in that time the bearings have had to be replaced 3 times and about to be a 4th. Considering that your tire can come completely off while driving shouldn’t this be a recall? 1st replacement was in 2018

ON 06-23-21 my car left me stranded on the side of the road the CVT transmission wen out . I was never contacted or called or received any mail whatsoever now Nissan says that i am out of luck and good luck I am out of a car that was giving me problems for over 2 years they refuse to help or do anything about the BAD transmission

ON 7-20-19 HAD A BLOWOUT ON REPLACEMENT TIRE THAT WAS INSTALLED ON 7-17-19. BLOWOUT OCCURRED WHILE IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY TRAVELING AT 60 MPH. TIRE BRAND NEXEN NPRIZ AH5. TIRES WERE NOT O YOUR LIST FILED AS N5000 TIRE LINE.

WHILE RUNNING ERRANDS MY VEHICLE BEGAN TO HOBBLE AND SHAKE ON THE HIGHWAY IN MOTION AT 60MPH. THIS WAS DUE TO TIRE TREAD SEPARATION. TOOK THE VEHICLE AND TIRE TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY AND WAS TOLD TIRE COULD BE REPLACED AT A DISCOUNTED PRICE TO PURCHASE, A/K/A ME. DEALERSHIP IS ED HICKS NISSAN IN CORPUS CHRISTI TEXAS.

I WAS REACHING FOR SOMETHING IN MY GLOVE BOX WITH MY SEAT BELT FASTENED WHEN MY BELT BROKE AT THE CONNECTION TO THE FRAME. IT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS JUST GLUED AND THE GLUE CAME LOOSE. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT THE TIME.

ME AND MY SPOUSE WERE REAR ENDED LAST NIGHT AT A RED LIGHT. NEITHER OF THE AIRBAGS FUNCTIONED AND HER SEATBELT DIDN'T HOLD HER TO HER SEAT, CAUSING HER TO IMPACT THE DASHBOARD WITH HER FACE. HER NOSE IS BROKEN AND SHE ALSO HAS HEMATOMAS ON HER EYES AND FOREHEAD.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Versa. The contact stated that water frequently entered the vehicle from an unknown location, soaking the rear center passenger's side seat and floorboard. The contact cleaned the front windshield cowl; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 85,000.

DRIVING TO ALA. FROM GA. HAD DIFFICULT TIME SEEING OUT WINDOWS AND WINDSHIELD DUE TO CONDENSATION BUILDING UP INSIDE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, PASSENGER SIDE, AND WINDSHIELD. IT WAS RAINING & DIFF IN TEMP., HAD TO STOP SEVERAL TIMES AND WIPE OFF WITH CLOTH TOWELS. WENT TO DEALERSHIP TO GET RADIO REPLACED AND SHOWED THEM THE TRUNK WAS WET (CARPET SHOWED RINGS) AND THE RIGHT DRIVERS DOOR HAD BIG GAP BETWEEN THE FRONT OF THE CAR AND DOOR FRAME AREA - IT IS SEPARATING FROM THE FRAME ON BOTH SIDES. THE FRONT DOORS ON BOTH SIDES ARE BELOW THE BACK DOORS AND THE GAPS ARE INCREASING WHENEVER I DRIVE THE CAR. INSIDE THE WINDSHIELD SEAL PLASTIC HAS STARTED TO PEEL OFF TWICE. THE WIPER BLADES HAS BEEN REPLACED THREE TIMES BECAUSE THEY JUST START TO TEAR IN SMALL AREAS. ALL OF THIS HAS BEEN BROUGHT AND SEEN BY THE SERVICE DEPT. EVEN WHEN THE MOISTURE COLLECTS INSIDE DURING A RAIN SHOWER (DEFROSTER WON'T PREVENT THIS) . THEY HAVE REFUSED TO FIX THE LEAK IN THE TRUNK OR THE DOORS. I AM SCARED THAT ONE OF THE DOORS WILL FALL OFF. THE GAP HAS INCREASED IN 6 WEEKS YOU CAN STAND 2 FT. AWAY AND SEE THE SCREWS. I CAN HARDLY LOCK THE CAR (MANUALLY). NO NISSAN DEALERSHIP WILL FIX IT WITHIN 120 MILES. I DO NOT KNOW WHY. THE MANUFACTURER KNOWS THIS AND IT IS UNDER WARRANTY. ALSO, THERE IS A AWFUL SMELL WHEN I START IT WITHIN THE SYSTEM, BUT THEY SAID IT WAS ME NOT THE CAR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN VERSA. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE'S HOOD UNEXPECTEDLY OPENED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (CAPITAL FORD, 4900 CAPITAL BLVD, RALEIGH, NC 27616) WHERE A FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000.

VIBRATIONS FELT THROUGH THE STEERING COLUMN, SEATS AND FLOOR, WHENEVER CAR IS IN GEAR AND STOPPED AT A LIGHT OR IDLE. VIBRATION GETS WORSE WHEN AC OR DEFROST IS TURNED ON. IT GOES AWAY WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL. HOWEVER CAR TAKES SOME TIME TO MOVE WHEN SHIFTING BACK TO DRIVE, AND THIS CAN CAUSE SOMEONE TO HIT YOU FROM BEHIND. TAKEN TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS VIBRATION IS COMPLETELY NORMAL AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE. VERY DISAPOINTED TO SAY THE LEAST.

TIRE PURCHASED FROM DEALERSHIP 1 YEAR AGO, TIRE TREAD SEPARATED, NEARLY CAUSING BLOWOUT, WHILE IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY. HAD I NOT TAKEN PRECAUTIONS I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. PRECAUTIONS TAKEN DUE TO ON THE JOB SAFETY PROFESSIONAL DRIVING SKILLS. TIRES ARE CALLED NEXEN AND ARE SOLD BY NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS. DOT # DOT8ELX

I BOUGHT THIS CAR ON 02/14/2014 AND YESTERDAY WAS THE FORTH TIRE TO GO FLAT ALL FOUR HAVE BEEN ON THE BACK DRIVER SIDE. THE FIRST TWO I'M NOT 100% ON WHAT CAUSED IT AS I JUST ASSUMED I RAN OVER A NAIL THE FIRST TIME AND THEN JUST HAD BAD LUCK ON THE 2ND TIME. THE THIRD TIME (STARTING IN OCTOBER OF 2014-RIGHT AFTER THE 2ND FLAT AND GETTING A BRAND NEW TIRE) THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT WOULD COME ON. WOULD CHECK AND IT WOULD BE LOW. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE LOCATION I GOT THE NEW TIRE FROM AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. WHEN A FEW MONTHS WITH NO PROBLEMS. IN DECEMBER THE LIGHT CAME ON, TOOK TO A DEALERSHIP TO GET OIL CHANGED...THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT...THEY FILLED IT WITH AIR. AGAIN I HAD NO PROBLEMS UNTIL IT WAS TIME FOR AN OIL CHANGE, AGAIN THE DEALERSHIP FOUND NOTHING WRONG. THIS HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIME. IN APRIL IT HAPPENED AGAIN, BUT A LOT QUICKER. I TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP, NOTHING. NEXT DAY IT WAS FLAT AGAIN HAD TO PUT AIR IN IT TWICE SO I TOOK IT BACK TO DEALERSHIP, AGAIN THEY FOUND NOTHING. THE NEXT DAY IT HAPPENED AGAIN HAD TO PUT AIR IN IT TWICE, AGAIN TOOK IT BACK TO DEALERSHIP (YAP THREE DAYS IN A ROW). LEFT IT THERE ALL DAY. THEY FOUND A PIN HOLE IN THE SIDE. I BOUGHT A NEW TIRE. YESTERDAY I WAS DRIVING AND THE BACK DRIVER SIDE TIRE BLOW. THIS TIME THERE IS A INCH SIDE SLASH ON THE OUT SIDE OF THE TIRE. IN THE SAME PLACE AS THE PIN HOLE IN THE OTHER TIRE. IT LOOKS LIKE MAYBE THE SEEM WHERE THE BUMPER IS ATTACHED TO THE CAR IS TO SHARP OR RUFF AND KILLING THAT TIRE. I STILL HAVE THE TWO TIRES WITH THE ISSUES AND WILL TRY TO WORK WITH THE DEALERSHIP TO GET THIS FIXED.
