Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The sun visors (l and r) will not stay up on the hook, they fall down. Partially blocking forward view. Neither visor will hold at any position, including stored. They continue to drop down. I am presently using velcro to secure the visors in a stored or up position. There ia no apparent means of adjustment, and the dealers want $200 plus to fix. I have never had an automobile have this problem with the sun visors, and I have owned at least 11 cars since 1956.”
NHTSA complaint #10440217, filed 2011-12, 35,000 miles“When the problem initially happened, I would have to push the rear defroster button hard (and sometimes wiggle it) in order to make it work. However, after a week of doing that to get the snow, frost, and fog off my rear windshield, the button no longer works (I.e. The light indicator does not come on, nor does the rear defroster turn on). After checking all my fuses (in the hood and cabin) and finding that the fuses were in perfect working order, I began to look on various Nissan Versa forum sights to see if I could troubleshoot the matter. …”
NHTSA complaint #10662203, filed 2014-12, 42,000 miles“Dash button for rear defroster doesn't work at all and A/C button is working only when pressing it for an extended period of time or if you apply extreme pressure and wiggle the button. During a rainy period this is causing a hazard because one cannot see clearly due to the fogging of front and rear windows.”
NHTSA complaint #10485970, filed 2012-11, 135,000 miles“The defrost system does not function properly. It doesn't matter how fast you are driving. The system cannot keep windows free from fog and during cold spells, it cannot keep the fog off the windshield. It is so dangerous to drive that I have actually had to pull off the road. No matter the interior temperature is set, whether you open the window, or how fast the blower goes, nothing seems to help see. The back passenger window have never been able to clear making it impossible to check for cars in the 'blind' area when changing lanes. …”
