Used 2013 Nissan Versa 1.6 SV 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl CVT) Consumer Reviews
Solid car 4 the $$$
"Bought an SV model and have close to 200 miles in. It's terrific!! Just what I was looking for. It get's me from point A to point B without spending lot's of hard earned cash. If you are looking for luxury then recommend the Acura line, or possibly Honda, but for normal commute, it's perfect. Getting about 36 mpg average and loving it. The CVT doesn't bother me so far (based on reviews) - actually it is smoother than most normal tranny cars I've driven. I did own a Datsun B-210 (manual) and an Altima so I do like Nissan. LOTS of room. My opinion - this car's ingenuity sticks out at me and I'm definitely loving it. Take one out for a test drive and you'll see. I did, and now I own one!!"
Brake failure
I was driving at 30 miles an hour and my new versa with 7000 miles. All of the sudden my computer went off and i could not use the brakes. I was lucky to avoid an accident. I said I do not feel safe in this car to Nissan and Lokey of Clearwater and they said they will just repair the car. At first they didn't know what was wrong and then they fixed the ABS chip and recalibrated the computer. I drove the car and one week later I was going 50 mph and the brakes were all the way in and they were barely stopping. Luckily I avoided the accident. I called Nissan and they ignored me and said that there is nothing they can do for me. So now they fixed the master cylinder. I feel very unsafe driving.

My college car that I love dearly
I bought this car brand new at the age of 23 and I am now 30 and it’s still going strong. I finished paying it and I still drive it because I’ve had no issues with it other than a rattling noise I had a while back. This sounds bad but I’ve never done a transmission oil change and yet it has survived. I had no clue this was something I had to do. Anyhow, this little car is so spacious inside and I always get compliments for its space and Apple red color. I’ve driven to miami, fl twice from the border of Texas. I’ve driven to San Antonio, Dallas, Houston, Mexico, etc and yet my baby is still healthy. I don’t want to sell it but it’s time I buy my Lexus. I’ve changed the tires on it only once for my job in Houston. The only thing I did not like in this car was the seat (I have a long torso.) I give this car an A+. It’s gas efficient! 2 of my friends ended up buying versas...

This is a nice car
1) Comfortable. 2) Practical. 3) Good gas Mileage. 4) Nice Drive. 5) Not a lot of power. But, enough power.
Very disappointed in my 2013 Nissan Versa
A few years after I bought the Versa new, I needed a bumper repair and an auto body person told me that my car was damaged front and back which had to have been before I took possession of it which I was not told about. If I was, I would not have accepted that car. The body repair guy said that what may have happened is the car fell off the delivery truck and it was patched up and sold as new. I was not happy with that but thought it probably was ok. Recently, my steering column broke and water leaked into the car. To repair the steering column alone would cost around $6500 which I can't afford and it only has around 84000 miles on it. Could the original damage cause damage to the steering column which eventually got worse and finally broke? I wrote to Nissan and they blew me off saying it was a dealer issue. The Nissan dealer is out of business but I wrote to the specific automotive network and have not heard from them. When I bought the car, they gave me a lifetime warranty on engine and drive train. I don't believe a steering column would count on that. I did get a new transmission through an extended warranty which has expired. I was terribly cheated and will follow up with the automotive network asking for help in this matter. I would like to trade my Versa for a similar car in good working order that has around 84000 miles on it (as long as it is not a Nissan). That would be fair. I would be open to advice on this.
