Nissan Versa note 2015 CTV transmission
If I could rate it 00000 starts I would ,worse car I have ever had from day one when I pulled it from showroom brand new. The airbag signs turned on, The transmission broke @62 k,they put another transmission saying it’s new come to know it was refurbished and broke down @74 k(didn’t even get to point of changing transmission oil) Now the dealership wants to charge $5000 for another refurbished transmission,I should have gone with Ford I would have been better off ,which I never liked . Rip offs won’t even acknowledge that there transmission sucks can’t even last 75k

It's been 3 years now. I have no complaints. All I do is routine maintenance by the dealer. I realize using premium fuel solves the complaint of the Versa Note not having enough freeway pep for passing or pulling out. I researched whether it had a timing belt or chain. It has a chain. Since I'm over sixty I thought twice about buying a stick shift (always my preference) but you never know when I'll have an injury. With the CVT I need only 1 foot to drive. The space is generous, the gas mileage is impressive (Avg 33 combined city/hwy). I am happy with my purchase (Certified Pre-Owned). I love the back-lit controls and the logical location of the controls. The one little thing I do miss is the access handle above the drivers door. It's my mini-SUV. I would recommend it to anyone.

Too basic a vehicle
I have a Nissan Versa Note as a rental car until my auto is repaired. Coming from a SUV to this is an eye opener. This red Versa Note is cute. The engine is pretty peppy, with one person in the car. The radio is fine as is the A/C. The drivers seat is also comfortable. I don't feel safe in this car. It's very small and has a very thin structure. Backing up is especially difficult. I'm use to a backup camera , but the versa is difficult to gage what's in back or the rear sides of you. Did I mention it has roll up windows. Makes me laugh. Haven't seen roll up windows for over forty years. The windows don't concern me either. This is a case of spending a little more money for a Safer car.

Good little car with some big flaws!
The versa note I had was a good little car. However, it had some very obnoxious flaws that made me just not enjoy driving it. Being that it is one of nissans cheapest cars, (although with all of the features I had, I could have bought an altima...) it is made of very cheap materials. After just a year of having the car, any bump and you would hear all the plastics on the interior rattle and shake. It got to the point where the whole car felt like it was shaking apart. Another issue I had with it is, whenever it would rain outside, the back windows would steam up, and there was nothing I could do to stop it. I could run the A/C, which would tank the gas mileage and what little power the car had. Or I would just lose all visibility out of the car. While the car got ok mileage (do not believe what the cars computer tells you, it is usually about 6 mpg less then what it shows), it just had no power, so if you had to go up hills you would lose all your mileage.

FUN little car
This a great car that doesn't cost much. When I was looking for an inexpensive car payment this little car did the trick. It looks really small but the inside is really roomy and the backseat can fit an adult over 6ft tall very comfortably. The cargo area is great and with the seats down you can really haul things in this hatchback including furniture! Visibility is great with the large windshield and back window. NO complaints other than its fairly basic inside but it sure does the trick for an inexpensive vehicle. When i first test drove it I thought this is a fun little car!
