Example complaints

“We’ve had our 2024 Nissan Versa that is an automatic transmission for over a year now and there has been some minor issues like headlights getting brighter as you accelerate, sometimes when it’s colder outside I’ve had the auto lights not work because of the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems lights would pop on like they not working anymore. The heat seems to take FOREVER to get warm. …”
NHTSA complaint #11649855, filed 2025-03“I was practicing manual transmission on my new Nissan Versa and when I stalled, that check engine light came on and I lost a LOT of power in all gears. In first gear, there’s also a whine that goes with it, and I don’t think that’s normal”
NHTSA complaint #11607827, filed 2024-08“Vehicle would not accelerate past 55 MPH after stalling. No warning. Got on the highway and the car was extremely lagging and the accelerator produced no response. Floored the vehicle and still nothing. Had to pull over and cycle the key 5x to fix the issue. I have stalled a few times, and this was the first time to “limp mode” occurred. The vehicle can be inspected at request of NHTSA. I believe it’s a common issue with these Nissans based on what I’ve read from forums.”
NHTSA complaint #11612240, filed 2024-09“I am uncertain exactly which vehicle component is causing the issue, but my headlights dim very low and the heat decreases while driving and when I accelerate both the headlights brighten and the heater returns to full blast. Nissan has categorized this as a normal characteristic of the vehicle after comparing it with to other exact models, which is the new 2024 Nissan Versa Manual S. They refuse to fix the headlights safety issue, even after I was able to show the tech by duplicating the problem a few times.”
NHTSA complaint #11569680, filed 2024-02“My Nissan Versa 2024 began going into “limp mode” and the power is significantly reduced. The car barely accelerates and only on flat surfaces when this happens. The check engine light came on and I took it to the dealership and they changed the cam shaft sensor they believed to be the problem, however, when I drove it off the lot the power was still reduced and not what it is normally like. I took the car back and they told me it was unnecessary to drive it and it wouldn’t help them they know what’s going on. …”
