2010 Nissan Versa Complaint Log

There has been a popping and creaking noise when turning the wheel at low speeds to the left, the passenger side of the car has now dropped and the spring, struts and mounts have to be replaced. The same issue that these make and models were recalled for, yet the vin does not have any recalls.

The car was having slow acceleration, horrid loud noises for awhile but no issues were found during checks but parts were replaced to try and troubleshoot but the sound and idle and running issues still persisted. The first sign of severe major issue was when the car was started it jolted forward while still in park in a first start up. Turned off the car and restarted it and it repeated the same action and then I put the car into reverse but it wouldn't reverse. Took the car to my local Firestone and they said it had an internal transmission problem and I should take it back to the dealership. Within the month I went to the dealership in person and explained the issue and they said there wasn't a recall or service call for my car. That I'd have to pay for repairs and my car wasn't under warranty since the extra service plan I purchased already ran out. While coming home from work my car started to shudder and jolt and wasn't accelerating properly. I stopped at a gas station to see if the car smelled odd and to refuel. It started up but repeated jolting shudder and less than a mile down the road the car suddenly slowed by itself and stopped accelerating. I had to hook slide to the side of the road. I put the car in park and accelerated the engine responded. So I turned off the car and restarted put it in drive after multiple tries I got it to finally accelerate. Less than half a mile down the road as the car was going downhill the car started to shutter jolt again before coming to a complete stop at a light. No matter how long I waited it would not drive but would only reverse at that point. I had to contact family to help me push the car to the roadside and called a tow. The car currently sits in the driveway will start up and reverse but when attempting to accelerate sometimes it might drive for a few minutes before refusing to accelerate. I have the 2010 Nissan Versa SL hatchback with the CVT Xtronic transmission.

Fuel pump failed with no notice while traveling on the interstate causing the engine to stop running. I was lucky that I was able to coast off the highway on to the shoulder. This occurred at night on a section of I-10 with a 75 MPH speed limit. If I had not been able to limp off the highway it would have been very dangerous. My Nissan Versa only has 75,000 miles and is well maintained. No warning lights or OBD codes were present before or after the failure. Replacing the fuel pump assembly fixed the problem.

12/27/2021 Nissan Headquarters call and a case number 45372007 given on12/21/21 after speaking with a Sandra while at the Nissan repair location in Rivergate/Madison, TN. call from Nathaniel from Nissan Headquarters in Franklin, TN regarding air bag system. Replacement as part of recall warning light complaint and case filed. Air bag warning light came on 12/19/21, diagnostic 12/21/21 air bag control system needed replacement. Clock spring was replaced October 2019, 15 months after recall issues on Takata air bag system and full replacement completed 7/26/2018. Nissan cannot cover costs due to mileage on car. I noted wanting to have this on record that these issues began after the recall on air bags and replacement in 2018. 615-725-7000 12/31/21 car air bag issue repaired then air bag light would pop on 2 more times, once in January 2022 in which they said they forgot to ‘clear codes” and then in February 2022 when other issues surfaced, another part replaced. Then light pops on again 3/15/2022 and I notified the service advisor with Nissan who’d been helping me and took the car in the following week.I have already paid for repairs to the clock spring in October 2019 between $530-$600 and the repair done 12/31/21 totaling over $1000 which includes the diagnostic fee, parts and labor. $1600 is just the bare minimum of what's been paid out.3/30/2022: Nissan Versa 2010 was dropped off again at Nissan of Rivergate/Hayes Nissan due to air bag warning light coming on again. They are running another diagnostic. This has been a continual and consistent issue since the air bag recall and replacement in July 2018. I have paid for the clock spring to be replaced October 2019 and now other parts and many trips to this Nissan for a “fix.” Which now they are saying I may have to possibly pay again. This is unacceptable and seems that there may be other consumers dealing with this issue. Something is wrong with this recall and replacement causing these issues of safety.

Air bag light came back on again. Car is back at Nissan of Rivergate in Madison, TN 2/28/2022 for another parts replacement. This again was never an issue until the air bag recall and replacement of 2018. Your tracking number assigned by NHTSA for this issue is 11448887. Air bag recall and replacement July 2018. Repaired in October 2019 after air bag light came back on: clock spring replaced, I paid out of pocket. 2021 air bag light on again: whole other issue with air bag system, I paid out of pocket again. And I have to let them know to make sure parts are put back correctly. Some areas appear to be cracked near windshield due to the work, but I know that will be hard to prove with them. Air bag light came back on-again January 2022, they initially said it was that they didn't reset the sensors. Took car back, they reset. 2/3/22 air bag light came on again now a new part is being worked on 2/28/22. This has been an issue with the airg bag recall.

Air bag warning light has continued to cause issues/coming on since the recall and replacement of the air bag system in 2018. The air bag warning light has come on in 2019, 2021 and again 2022. All since the air bag recall of Summer 2018. No issues with the air bag system prior to the recall and replacement, but plenty since the replacement. This occurs upon the initial startup of the car.

I HAVE A 2010 NISSAN VERSA I WAS TOLD AT MY CALENDAR CONVERTER IS NOT LEGAL IN CALIFORNIA AND I CANNOT PAY TO GET IT REPAIRED THEY SOLD ME A CAR WITH ILLEGAL PARTS IN CALIFORNIA

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY THIS EVENING ON SATURDAY DECEMBER 19TH WHEN I AM TRYING TO DOWNSHIFT FROM 6TH AND TRYING GET OFF THE FREEWAY I COULDN'T GOING TO GEAR SO THAT'S WHEN I HAD THE CRUISE UNTIL I CAME TO A STOP SO AFTER TURN THE CAR OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES I PUT IT IN FIRST GEAR AND THEN I PROCEEDED IT AGAIN AND WAS ABLE TO ONLY DRIVE IN FIRST GEAR ON THE WAY HOME

SOMETIME IN THE LAST 3 OR 4 MONTHS THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT GO OFF. TOOK CAR TO GARAGE NOV. 24,2020 TO REPAIR THE LIGHT AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE AIR BAGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE GARAGE INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR AIRBAGS BY NISSAN COVERING THE TIME FRAME MY CAR WAS BUILT . NISSAN REJECTED THE RECALL REPAIR BECAUSE THE AIR BAGS INSTALLED IN MY CAR WERE NOT TIKATA BRAND AIR BAGS. IT WOULD SEEM REASONABLE THAT ALL AIR BAGS USED IN NISSAN VERSA VEHICLES DURING THE RECALL PERIOD SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND REPLACED WHATEVER THE BRAND AND NOT LIMITED TO ONLY THE TAKATA BRAND.

Thankfully for this, but now I don’t feel safe driving this car regardless when airbag be repaired. Been in this vehicle for 12 years with a defected airbag which should keep occupants safe instead putting my life and others in danger. Is there a guarantee when repaired this will be safe?

TAKATA RECALL. WE WERE UNABLE TO GET THE RECALL FIXED UNTIL MARCH 16TH AS PARTS WEREN'T AVAILABLE. WE TOOK IT IN ON FRI THE 16TH AND GOT BOTH AIRBAGS REPLACED UNDER THE RECALL. AS WE WERE LEAVING THE SHOP, THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND WAS FLASHING. WE THOUGHT IT WAS JUST RESETTING AFTER THE SERVICE. WE CALLED THE SHOP AND THEY HAD US BRING IT IN TODAY THE 21ST TO GET IT FIXED. THEY NOW CLAIM THAT IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM AND THAT WE OWE MONEY TO GET IT FIXED. THAT LIGHT DID NOT COME ON UNTIL THEY MESSED WITH THE AIRBAGS FOR THE RECALL. WE STRONGLY FEEL THAT SOMETHING THEY DID WHEN SERVICING THE CAR MADE THE LIGHT COME ON. THEY SAID SINCE IT WASN'T THEIR CAUSE, WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO FIX IT. I REFUSE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THEY CAUSED.

TAKATA RECALL I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR AIR BAG REPAIRS WHICH ARE REPORTED TO HAVE BEEN COMPLETED. MY AIR BAG LIGHTS ARE STILL ON. I AM BEING TOLD THIS IS NOT RELATED TO THE RECALL BUT MAY RESULT IN THE AIR BAGS NOT BEING DEPLOYED IF THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT. THE LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ON AND THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN ACCIDENT SINCE THE AIR BAG LIGHTS HAVE BEEN ON.

I HAD ON THE HEATER, I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND MY CAR STARTED TO SHAKE THERE WAS A BURNING SMELL A LOUD POP SOUND AND THEN I SPAN OUT OF CONTROL INTO A DITCH. I WAS LIVING IN SACRAMENTO, CA ABOUT TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY TO PICK SOMEONE UP FROM THE AIRPORT. IT WAS RAINING, BUT NOT HARD AT ALL.

RECENTLY MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HER CAR (2010 NISSAN VERSA) AND THE FRONT RIGHT COIL SPRING SNAPPED. SHE WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 20MPH ON A STRAIGHT PAVED ROAD. THERE WERE NO POTHOLES ON THIS ROAD WHEN THIS OCCURRED. THE RESULT WAS IT GOUGING OUT THE RIGHT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE. SINCE SHE WAS TRAVELING AT A SLOW SPEED AND WAS VIGILANT ENOUGH TO SEE SMOKE AND STOP BEFORE THE TIRE WAS BLOWN OUT. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THE COIL SPRING BREAKING WAS AN ISSUE FOR 07-12 NISSAN VERSES. BUT WHEN CALLING NISSAN ABOUT THE PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THAT MY CAR WASN'T COVERED EVEN THO IT IS REGISTERED IN ONE OF THE "SALT BELT STATES".

AT 29,374 MILES, I NEEDED TO HAVE MY REAR BRAKES REPLACED. MY AUTO SHOP AND I BOTH AGREE THAT THIS IS VERY EARLY ESPECIALLY FOR THE REAR BRAKES. I NEVER RIDE THE BRAKES OR PUT MY EMERGENCY BRAKE ON. WITH A 8 YEAR OLD CAR WITH ONLY 29,374 MILES ON IT, YOU CAN SEE THAT I RARELY EVEN DRIVE THIS CAR.

TAKATA RECALL HAS PUT MY FAMILY, FRIENDS AND MY LIFE IN DANGER - NOT TO MENTION COUNTLESS OTHERS.... IT IS VERY STRESSFUL KNOWING THAT THERE IS A TICKING TIME BOMB IN THE CAR WE DRIVE EVERY DAY. I HOPE AND PRAY THAT WE REMAIN SAFE UNTIL THE AIRBAG INFLATOR CAN BE REPLACED IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS.

FRONT STRUTS MAKING CLUNKING NOISE, HAVE FOUND A CRACK IN THE SPRING OF THE DRIVERS SIDE OF HE CAR. SEEMS THERE IS A ACTIVE COMPLAINTS AND A FIX FOR THIS BUT HAS ONLY INCLUDED FOR CERTAIN STATES DUE TO ROAD SALT. KANSAS IS A MIDWESTERN STATE THAT ALSO USES ROAD SALT AND BRINE FOR ROADWAYS.

"TAKATA RECALL" MY DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THERE'S A RESTRICTION SO THAT THEY CAN'T FIX IT AND THEY CAN'T EVEN GET THE PARTS IN FOR MY COIL SPRINGS AND MY CAR IS COMPLETELY IMMOBILE RIGHT NOW

TAKATA RECALL "DRIVER AIRBAG FAILURE" HOW IN THE WORLD SHOULD I CONTINUE TO USE MY VEHICLE WITH THIS WARNING. NISSAN IS TELLING ME THAT THEY ARE WORKING ON GETTING THE PARTS TO MAKE THIS CHANGE. THEY ARE HOPING TO GET THE PARTS IN SPRING 2018! THIS IS RIDICULOUS.
