Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“My Versa suddenly quit running while it was stationary a traffic signal. The vehicle would not restart, and there was no smell of fuel associated with the restarting process. I had the vehicle towed to pep boys auto repair shop, and they diagnosed the fuel pump and the power supply fuses for the fuel pump as the causes. The vehicle had 46,000 miles exactly. If this had occurred on a freeway, or in the middle of nowhere, the hazards would have been considerable..”

NHTSA complaint #10898040, filed 2016-08, 46,000 miles

“The car began to run very loudly, fuel consumption was increased, power of vehicle decreased. The first mechanic stated it could have been the catalytic converter. After research I found that many Nissan Versa owners have been complaining about the same symptoms and the tailpipe could have a break in it. I took it to midas and it was found that the muffler was stainless steel but the weld going from the muffler to the flange/tailpipe was regular steel which corrodes very easily causing breakage. …”

“Exhaust system corroding early after normal use. Need to replace midpipe and springs holding parts of the exhaust system in place. I am having them replaced before it causes an incident, but if not fixed it could have lead to pieces of the exhaust system falling off during driving and causing a road hazard”
