“My 2010 Nissan Versa 4 door hatchback with manual door locks: only the driver side door can be unlocked from the outside. I had to wait 3 hours before being able to access my car because a van was parked to close on the driver side.”

NHTSA complaint #10365686, filed 2010-11, 3,100 miles

“We bought the basic model of the 2010 Nissan Versa. Our chief complaint is the fact there is only one lock and it is on the driver's side door. I am disabled therefore when I come back from the store or some appointment etc or have my grandchildren or other children from the family, I have found that either someone has parked too close to open the door ( many times and when you are in pain the last thing you want to do in the rain or 90+ weather is wait for someone to come out and move a vehicle when you hurt too bad to walk back wherever you are) or the other problem is leaving children…”

NHTSA complaint #10456382, filed 2012-04

NHTSA complaint #10379329, filed 2011-01, 1,843 miles

“The 2010 Nissan Versa 4 door hatchback with manual door locks: only the driver side door can be unlocked from the outside. Passengers must be left unattended as the driver enters the vehicle, reaches across to unlock the remaining 3 doors, and then exits to escort passengers to the various doors. Elderly, disabled and small children should never have to be left unattended in order to access a vehicle.”
