“There was no actual accident, but I am extremely concerned. On november 8th I was just starting on the highway, so not even at speed limit, when I felt that pressing on the accelerator it hesitated. I noticed it a few more times and then the service engine light came on. I took it to the dealership and they said to return a week later for the earliest service appointment, but that it was safe to drive. Once in for servicing, I was notified that it would need a new fuel pump because there was a leak. …”
NHTSA complaint #10552313, filed 2013-11, 75,000 miles“Shortly after purchasing a new 2010 Nissan Versa in 2011 I noticed that every time the vehicle was driven at about 15 plus MPH there was a loud clunking noise for about 15 seconds. If the brake pedal was pushed there would be a heavy felt vibration. Twice it seems as though the front end shook. The vehicle was taken to the shop three times and different parts were replaced/repaired. They did not seem to know what the problem was. On the fourth and subsequent times I complained, they said it was the antilock brake system self check system causing the problem and it was normal. …”

NHTSA complaint #10653657, filed 2014-11, 4,553 miles“Car in motion on nj state highway 94, sparta, nj. Car had 39k miles. The fuel pump failed on a two-lane highway with no shoulders, but was able to pull over into someone's driveway. It was a sunday afternoon, 8/30/2015, but was able to get towed through aaa. Situation was dangerous because it is a busy highway. A fuel pump failure occurs without warning, is dangerous, and should not occur in a vehicle that has a Nissan dealer's regular service record, is under 40k miles, and driven only by two people in their 70's. Receipt for repairs is available if requested.”
