Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The coil spring on the passenger side front broke almost spearing my tire as I was about to back out of my garage. This vehicle sits in a garage all year round and is used daily. Luckily I did not make it out of my driveway or I may have gotten hurt at 65 MPH or worse gotten someone else hurt because of this manufactures defect.”
NHTSA complaint #10715469, filed 2015-05, 68,500 miles“I was pulling into a parking spot and I heard a loud snapping noise from the front left of the car. I was able to drive the car home as nothing appeared to be broken. When I took the wheel off I noticed the spring had snapped and was rubbing against my tire. I will have to replace my tire because it rubbed off a significant amount of rubber. I am lucky the tire didn't blow while I was driving.”
NHTSA complaint #10585040, filed 2014-04, 55,000 miles“While sitting in the yard we heard a metal clang sound coming from one of the cars. We looked but could not tell which car it came from. Later when I started to drive the car on the highway the front passenger tire shredded. This was due to the front passenger side spring being broken. We later found the broken piece where the car was parked. The vehicle only had 48,684 mostly highway miles on it.”
NHTSA complaint #10523540, filed 2013-07, 48,684 miles“I was driving down the road when suddenly one of my hub caps came off. Next week, I was driving again and my other hub cap on the same side came off. This cannot be a coincidence. I know several people who have Nissan Versa's and they also are having the same issue.”
NHTSA complaint #10598661, filed 2014-06, 80,000 miles“Front coil spring fell out from under the car as I was pulling out of a parking spot. If I was going any faster it could have been very dangerous if it punctured a wheel.”
