Used 2012 Nissan Versa Consumer Reviews

Nothing special, just a good little car

Excellent economy car!!

Where to begin with the Versa. For $10,990 it's one of the best values I've ever seen. The interior is exceptionally roomy for a small car. Honestly it has as much room as a full size car. The trunk is huge! It has decent power for climbing and accelerating but gets well over 50mpg on the highway. Good quality all around. Awesome car. Buying one was the best decision I've made in a while.

Don’t buy or you will cry

Seriously DO NOT invest in a 2012 Nissan Versa. These cars are money pits and I wish I would have known before I bought mine. I bought it used from a dealer at 60k. I had had bad experiences with cars before so I made sure to keep up with the maitence on it. I had to replace the front brakes. Got the transmission oil changed. Little electrical issues were always occurring and then the transmission went out at 115k with no warning. I even had it checked out before going on a road trip and two Nissan places told me everything was fine. It obviously was not fine because it broke down and would not accelerate leaving me and my sister stranded in the middle of Kansas. Talk about the start to a horror film. The brakes always squeaked even after replacing them. Just don’t get a Nissan. I’ll definitely get a Toyota or Ford after this experience, something that would AT LEAST get to 200k.

300,000

Bought this car back in 2015. Now I’m 2022, my car is still running. Original engine and transmission. Only thing I had to replace was the alternative and fuel pump. Other than that, very reliable car!

Bummer

See "Car and Driver" review here - http://buyersguide.caranddriver.com/nissan/versa for a succinct and accurate description. However don't believe the fuel economy claims. The first time I used this car for a trip, it ran out of gas in only 320 miles at highway speeds. The driver's manual says it has an 11.7 gallon tank. That's only 27 mpg. Also the gas guage cannot be seen in bright sunlight wearing sun glasses, and even without sun-glasses cannot be seen safely while driving. Also the low fuel indication started flashing only 20 miles before the fuel ran out, and I got off the freeway once in a failed attempt to find a gas station in that 20 miles.
