I just purchased my Nissan versa. And I love it until not even having it for a month My transmission is gone and needs to be replaced... I thought Nissan had fixed this problem from the past, but They haven't. Before I purchased this one I got a 2016 Sentra But I had for not even 3 months. And the transmission blew on that 1 as well.... I will never ever get a nissan again.... And it's sad because I really like this car. And it breaks my heart that at 80000 clicks. I have to replace my transmission which thank God is under warranty..

Had a brand new rental for two weeks. as time went buy I found the seats uncomfortable. the controls cheaply made, very poor heater. Drove ok, but felt it was a car where they had cut corners. Not one I would consider buying.

Unreliable sensor and unreliable customer service

I have an issue with my 2020 Nissan Versa. This is regarding the Forward Emergency Brake system. When my wife was driving on the highway, the light for the sensor suddenly appeared in the dashboard for no apparent reason. The light appeared when she was driving and not when she just took off from the vehicle. She did not hit or bump anything, in fact, there was no indication that the bumper or even the Nissan logo and grill was involved in an impact. Even the dealership which is Anderson Nissan in Lake Havasu, AZ confirmed that the front was clean. When they removed the bumper, they saw that the bracket that's holding the sensor was misaligned. They were quick to say that it was involved in an impact but cannot give me a good reason why the bracket was misaligned from the inside and the front bumper has no signs of impact. I tried to contest their assessment, but they said that the impact might just be minimal and that it can still misalign the sensor. I have a hard time accepting this because in the first place, how can the bracket be misaligned when there are no dents or impact damage in the front bumper. Secondly, knowing that this device is sensitive, it should have been placed in a secure location since this device is essential for safety. This device is meant to prevent an incident and not meant to function if something has impacted your vehicle. If the device is meant to prevent, it needs to be in a secure location. Anyway, Anderson Nissan told me that since this is an incident where it was caused by an impact, the warranty is not going to cover the cost of the repair. Since safety is a primary concern for me and I want to have the forward emergency brake back, I ended up paying $1923.96 for the whole thing. I feel that I was not treated fairly in this situation. Anderson Nissan is not truthful and transparent. They should have asked me to witness live during the time they took the bumper out. They only showed me pictures after they took it off without my knowledge. What if they fabricated the whole thing after they took the bumper out, that is very possible since I was not there. I pleaded with Anderson Nissan and Nissan Consumer affairs to give me a refund, but I fell on deaf ears. I would like to show the pictures here but I can't seem to upload it. All of this is just ridiculous.

I bought mine brand new in 2021 in July MFR date on door June 2021. This car has been the best thing ever great gas mileage at over 40+ MPG still peppy for as small as it is. Great technology has Panasonic audio system, Pulled mine out to see what kind of audio it has because I am a want to know person. Don't regret buying it for one second. I bought the highest trim the SR in pearl tri-coat paint color with every option available. Only thing missing is leather seats which I am going to have redone to make it what I want lol.
