I purchased a used 2015 Nissan Versa from drivetime back on 04/20/18 with 46,732 miles on it. I have had it for almost 8 months and it now has close to 60,000 miles. I started having problems with driving here in the last couple months with the car shutting down, transmission jerking & transmission slipping. I took it to a repair shop who advised me that the transmission needs to be replaced. They quoted me between $2000 to $4000 depending if I buy a used or new transmission. I checked online and see that this is well know problem with Nissan vehicles, with their cvt transmission. It shows that they extended the warranty out to 10 years and 120,000 on some of the their vehicles with the cvt transmission. However, I just called my local Nissan dealership and they advised me that my vehicle is not covered under this extended warranty. I would like to file a complaint and advise that this is a safety issue. For the car to shut down in the midle of the highway while im driving it, could result in me being involved in a serious accident or being killed. Please let me know what remedies I have going forward with this issue. Thank you.

When I first purchase the Nissan Versa 2015 in Sept. 2015, the car was used it had 15,000 miles on it. I test drove it a little bit when I tried to drive it off I noticed the transmission was acting up before I got off the stockton dealership. I brought it back and they test drove it. They said yes there is something wrong and replace it. Now, I am thinking back, the dealership knew the transmission was not working correctly. Before I purchased the car. The dealership convinced me to get the extended warranty. I am thinking why is a brand new car with 15,000 miles on it.. so, it took about a month to replace the transmission and it drove ok. Then in 2017, I noticed a small slipping noise, like a small drumroll every now and then. Then finally I took the car to oakland dealership in 2017 around 88,000 miles. They couldn't locate the transmission problem or noise. In a few days, I pick up the car and as soon as I drove it I hear the slipping drumroll sound. I took it back and the dealership said we tested and the transmission was fine. I was discouraged with the results, now it Jan 2019, many months later, and transmission slipping and expired warranty. The transmission slipping, more frequent loud drumroll noise and shaking while trying to accelerate the car. I looked it up on google and I noticed that Nissan doubled the extended warranty on their transmission. Today, I went to the oakland dealership and they said my Nissan Versa is not under that extended warranty. How can this be? there are hundreds of complaints and failures about the Nissan transmission. Nissan and dealership knew about the transmission failure in the Versa. Right now, I feel the car is unsafe to drive on the street because the transmission will fail an any given time and driving condition. Please recall all Nissan Versa and have the company fix this recurring transmission issue.

On both city streets and highways. Accelerator will stick and or clutch is not properly engaging as specific vehicle has a manual transmission. Causing the vehicles RPM to go up higher then recommended.

I bought this Versa brand new at the dealership. After a year from the purchase date the dealer went out of business and was bought out. The first year I had it I came in often with transmission problems, but was told it was nothing and to give it more gas when it acted like it was having troubles. Everytime I went for an oil change, even my first oil change, they would come back with 600 dollars worth of filters or the brake fluid needed to be changed. I quit going there for my car, because of the constant pressure to spend money on issues I wasnt having. They never wanted to look at the transmission or anything. Now after 65K the transmission has been replaced, my running taillights do not work, some unknown electrical issue, and the car just turns off on it's own with no warning. Before the tranny went out I was driving 70 mph down the interstate and the car shut off with no warning nearly causing an accident with a semi, the dealer does not want to fix that problem bc it can not replicated. That's their answer to any problem that's not expensive or quick. If it can not be replicated then your lying as I have been told. I was also told that all Versa's sold would need a new tranny after 40K. Now Nissan North America nor the dealer wants to pay for their mistakes. I need help getting this resolved soon.

Sitting at a red light, accelerated when it turned green and car would not move. Finally did move enough to pull into a parking lot. Had car towed over 150 miles back to austin, Texas and dropped off at lamb's tire & automotive on w. slaughter lane. Transmission needed to be replaced. Brand new would have been about $6500. Rebuilt about 1/2 that amount. Did not fix. Had it towed back to our house where it still sits in the driveway.

On September 25,2018 my 2015 Nissan Versa transmission went out. In March 2018 I took it in the dealership to get it check for a loud strange noise when I was hitting the gas pedal. They told me that it was the transmission at 56,000 miles. So I continue to drive the car. The car had started jerking and making real loud noise. When I put it in reverse the car would cut off. At 76,122 the transmission went out.

The transmission was replaced at the Nissan dealership. Now at 33, xxx miles it sounds like it is going bad again. When we purchased the vehicle from the Nissan dealership, it was a certified used vehicle with 87 miles on it. The electrical in the car is also having problems. Our stereo display does not always work and the usb and charge ports are also not up to standard.

My 2015 Nissan Versa transmission has gone out and it only has 79K miles I purchased it brand new in Oct of 2015. I am just checking to see if the transmission was installed in 2014 since those transmissions were recalled on the 2014 Versas were used in the 2015 Versas. The transmission should not have failed with that mileage. I am sure Nissan is aware of this issue with customers, as I have found several complaints from Nissan Versa owners. We need a recall on these vehicles consumers simply cannot pay thousands of dollars to have them replaced this is a manufacturers defect and Nissan should be made to pay for the total repairs to replace these transmissions on all the 2015 Versas, maybe you could look into this. My car is at the dealership waiting to be inspected as they are two weeks behind and now I have to rent a vehicle to get to work. Please take this complaint into serious consideration.

At 90,000 miles the transmission started acting up. It would act like it was slipping when you take off from a dead stop. As time went by, at 114,000 miles the check engine light came on. At the same time the transmission got worse. Not only it was slipping at take off, but jerking at 20 and 40 mph. Whe I took it to the dealer, they told me I needed a new transmission. The dealer when I checked the check engine light also said it should have been serviced every 36,000 miles. She I when in for oil changes nothing was said prior.

" takata recall" my 2015 Nissan Versa is driving slow and there is no excelaration, the car wont drive over 35 miles and the car is constantly driving slow. I am able to take the car to O'reilys by home and they were able to complete a diagnostics on the car and they advise me that is was a transmission issue. I had a private mechanic to come to home and he advise the same. I check Nissan of North America website and I see there was a recall for the Nissan Versa but that was in 2015 for the cvt-transmission and this happen to my car in Jan 2017. I didnot have any warnings on my dash boards, and I was in traffic when it happend. I first brought the car in to the dealership in Jan 2015 for the foot pedal and the car stayed there almost 2 months before they finally fixed it correctly and then I notice a recall after that. I bought my car brand new in Dec 2014 and the car is not even 2 years old for the transmission to be gone. I do not have an extended warranty and why should I since it is a brand new car. When the car was driving slow on the expressway I had my children in the car and it could have play out worst. I was able to pull the car over to the side let it sit and then I started it back again driving with my hazard lights on and the car kept jerking and never going over 35 miles, the car revs on its own without stepping on the foot pedal. When I drive the car now I do not go further than 3 miles from my home for fear the car will stop again or I can be in a serious accident. I live by 2 major expressways that truck use and I cant afford to take the chance with getting hit from behind. Trying to make 1 turn off my street the car just revs and then it slows down and then all of sudden the car will speed off on it own to about 35 miles.I called the dealership and they want to charge me $4,000 to put a brand new transmission which I dont have.
