CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2012-2017 Nissan Versa has an expensive CVT transmission failure defect that shows up plainly in our complaint data.

In late 2019, the CVT defect was subject to a class action settlement. However the settlement only covers transmission repairs up to 7 years after purchase or 84,000 miles (whichever occurs first).

Because many owners commonly drive 20,000 miles/year or more, Versa owners experiencing CVT transmission problems may find they are not covered by this settlement due to the mileage limitation.

TOOK CAR IN 3 TIMES AND THEY KEPT SAYING NOTHING IS WRONG, THE HEAT IS WORKING, BUT WHEN THE TEMPS WENT BELOW 10 DEGREES THERE WAS NO HEAT. FINALLY HAD TO CONTACT GENERAL MANAGER TO GET A NEW THERMOSTAT PUT IN BECAUSE IT WAS QUITE CLEAR THAT IT WAS STICKING. WORST CAR I HAVE EVERY PURCHASED. ALREADY HAD THE CAR IN FOR SHIFTER RECALLS 2 TIMES AND THE SHIFTER IS STILL NOT WORKING. ALSO THE AIR CONDITIONING IS NOT WORKING AND HAS TO BE TAKEN BACK IN. I HAVE HAD THIS 2013 VERSA IN FOR SERVICE MORE TIMES THAN MY 2004 MONTERAY MINI VAN. GOES TO SHOW YOU THAT THE NEWER THE MODEL THE CHEAPER THE QUALITY!
