SUSPENSION
REPLACING THE EXHAUST THE REAR SPRINGS WERE BROKEN TO THE POINT THE INSULATORS FELL OUT . THE SPRINGS ON BOTH THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE WERE BREAKING. THERE WASN'T ANY SIGNIFICANT RUST ON THE SPRINGS THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE FRONT WHICH WAS DONE. THE INSULATORS MISSING MAKES A METAL TO METAL CONTACT WHICH WOULD MAKE IT WEAR OUT FASTER AND MORE PRONE TO RUST. WHY ARE THE SPRINGS BREAKING?

I WENT BACK TO HAVE THEM REPAIRED ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THEY SAID SOME HARDWARE WAS MISSING FROM MY BRAKES.I HAVE BEEN OUT HERE DRIVING IN THIS CAR WITH FAULTY BRAKES THAT LEFT THE MANUFACTURER AND THAT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN PUT OUT INTO CIRCULATION FOR PURCHASE. *JS

AIR BAGS
SOMETIME IN THE LAST 3 OR 4 MONTHS THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT GO OFF. TOOK CAR TO GARAGE NOV. 24,2020 TO REPAIR THE LIGHT AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE AIR BAGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE GARAGE INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR AIRBAGS BY NISSAN COVERING THE TIME FRAME MY CAR WAS BUILT . NISSAN REJECTED THE RECALL REPAIR BECAUSE THE AIR BAGS INSTALLED IN MY CAR WERE NOT TIKATA BRAND AIR BAGS. IT WOULD SEEM REASONABLE THAT ALL AIR BAGS USED IN NISSAN VERSA VEHICLES DURING THE RECALL PERIOD SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND REPLACED WHATEVER THE BRAND AND NOT LIMITED TO ONLY THE TAKATA BRAND.

POWER TRAIN
A REAR WHEEL BEARING FAILED AND WAS REPLACED AT 14,900 MILES IN 2017. NOW, A REAR WHEEL BEARING HAS FAILED AGAIN AT 59,500 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT MAKE ANY CONCESSION ON THE FAULTY PARTS AND/OR FLAW IN THE QUALITY THAT NISSAN IS USING. WHEEL BEARINGS SHOULD NOT FAIL AT THIS POINT IN A VEHICLE'S LIFE (LOW MILES). THE WHEEL GETS EXTREMELY HOT AND COULD LOCK-UP CAUSING A LOSS OF CONTROL. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS UNSATISFACTORY. THESE CAR MODELS SHOULD BE CHECKED AND REPLACED IF NEEDED BY NISSAN AT NO COST TO THE OWNER. MY VEHICLE IS TILL WITHIN THE 60,000 MILE WARRANTY BUT 4 MONTHS BEYOND THE 60 MONTHS.

POWER TRAIN
I WAS ON THE STREET AND THE CAR JUST STOPPED GOING FORWARD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED HOME. NOW THE CAR STARTS, JUGGLE BACK AND FORTH BUT I CAN'T GO OVER 45 MILES PER HOUR. NO ONE AT NISSAN WILL HELP ME. TELLS ME IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. WITH COVID I DON'T MAKE ENOUGH TO BUY ANOTHER CAR AND LIVE A NORMAL LIFE. I AM STILL PAYING FOR A BROKEN CAR.

POWER TRAIN
A RECALL JOB, TRANSMISSION COMPUTER UPGRADE, WAS COMPLETED BY TRACY NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND NOW MY NISSAN VERSA WILL GO NO FASTER THAN 10 MPH. NO INDICATIONS OF TRANSMISSION FAILURE WERE DISPLAYED UPON COMPLETION OF THE RECALL CORRECTION. THIS CAR IS ONLY SIX YEARS OLD WITH APPROXIMATELY 102,640 MILES. A COMPLAINT HAS BEEN LOGGED WITH NISSAN, BUT MY EFFORTS HAVE BEEN INEFFECTIVE THUS FAR. THE CAR WAS DRIVEN TO THE TRACY NISSAN DEALERSHIP ON 10/20/2020 AND KEPT OVER NIGHT. ON 10/21/2020, THE RECALL WAS COMPLETE AND THE NISSAN WAS DRIVEN AWAY. LESS THAN 20 MINUTES LATER, THE TRANSMISSION EXPERIENCED A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE WHILE DRIVEN ON THE FREEWAY. THE CAR WOULD GO NO FASTER THAN 10 MPH. ON THE SAME DATE, 10/21/2020, THE NISSAN WAS TOWED BACK, AT MY EXPENSE, TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT IS CURRENTLY LOCATED PENDING DISCISSIONS WITH NISSAN.

AIR BAGS
AIRBAG LIGHT LIGHT CAME ON. TOKE IT TO GET CHECKED THE FIRST TIME WAS TOLD OLD CODES CAME UP BUT EVERYTHING LOOK GOOD THAT IF THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON I WOULD HAVE TO TAKE TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. ONE HOUR LATER LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. TOOK TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT SHOWED OLD CODES AND WIRES WERE CRINKLED. THEY FIXED THEM AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE FOR TWO WEEKS. LIGHT CAME BACK ON. TOKE IT BACK TO THEM. THEY CHECKED IT AGAIN SAME OLD CODES CAME UP AGAIN AND WAS TOLD IT WAS SUGGESTED BY NISSAN THAT I NEEDED AIRBAG MODULE BUT THEY DIDN'T KNOW IF THAT WOULD ACTUALLY FIX THE PROBLEM BUT THAT WAS THE FIRST THING THEY HAD TO DO AND IT WOULD COST A LITTLE OVER 1300 DOLLARS. I DON'T FEEL I SHOULD FORK OUT THAT KIND OF MONEY FOR THEM TO GUESS. ALSO KNOW THERE IS A RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS BUT WAS TOLD NOT MY CAR.

STEERING
WHILE MY DAUGHTER WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT ONTO THE STREET, THE STEERING SUDDENLY LOCKED. THIS HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES BEFORE. THE CAR HAD STALLING ISSUES AND WOULD OCCUR WHEN THE CAR STALLED, BUT THIS TIME AND SEVERAL OTHER TIMES THE CAR DID NOT STALL. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I HAVE SEEN MANY OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS ONLINE FRIOM OTHER DRIVERS. I CAN'T BELIEVE NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN ON THIS ISSUE.
