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.

These anchor bolts are required to meet minimum forces. The occupant that was killed weighed only 115 lbs and the speed in this head on collision was only less than 45 MPH so the standard forces were not exceeded. Because the anchor bolt broke, it released the passenger and she died at the scene from impacts to her chest from inside the passenger compartment unrestrained. Front seat passenger and driver of other vehicle survived with no life threatening injuries.
