VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE INTERMITTENT WIPERS WILL NOT SPEED UP WHEN ADJUSTING THE DIAL. THEY WILL ONLY GO ONE SPEED. THEY GO VERY SLOWLY AND IT'S NOT ENOUGH FOR MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN. THIS HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING AT SPEED IN THE RAIN ON ANY STREET INCLUDING HIGHWAYS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE NISSAN VERSA 2017 IS UNSAFE TO BE DRIVING IN THE ROAD BECAUSE IT TURNS OFF WHILE IT'S DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. I FIXED MY CAR 2 TIMES AND IT KEEPS ON HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AND NISSAN DOESN'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY MADE ME BUY PARTS THAT THE CAR DIDN'T EVEN NEED AND THE CAR BROKE DOWN 20 MILES LATER AFTER IT BEING 'FIXED'. NOW I TOOK IT BACK AND I HAVE TO PAY AGAIN FOR IT TO BE FIXED AND IDK IF IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND I FEEL UNSAFE IN THIS CAR.

THE DRIVERS SIDE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE DOES NOT OPEN DOOR. IN ORDER TO OPEN DOOR TO EXIT CAR AT ALL (MUCH LESS IN AN EMERGENCY) YOU MUST FIRST KEEP CAR RUNNING, THEN ENGAGE POWER DOOR LOCK TO THE UNLOCK POSITION, THEN ROLL DOWN POWER WINDOW ALL THE WAY IN ORDER TO REACH THE EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE AND PULL OUT AWAY FROM THE CAR. NOTE: THE CAR HAD APPROXIMATELY 59000 MILES ON IT. WHEN NOTIFIED IN MID JUNE 2019, NISSAN CUSTOMER 'ADVOCATE' INSTRUCTED ME TO BRING THE PROBLEM TO CHULA VISTA, CA. DEALER TO VERIFY THE ISSUE, DOCUMENT IT THEN CONTACT THEM WITH THE RESULT. WHEN I DID SO AND EXPLAINED THE SAFETY ISSUE AND THAT I WAS INSTRUCTED TO GO THERE BY NISSAN THE SERVICE MANAGER THERE SAID I'D BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING A $175 'DIAGNOSTIC FEE' SINCE THEY CLAIMED THEY NEEDED TO TAKE OFF THE DOOR PANEL IN ORDER TO ESTIMATE A COST TO REPAIR. WHEN I EXPLAINED THAT I WAS THERE AT THE BEHEST OF NISSAN HE INSISTED I STILL WOULD BE REQUIRED TO PAY THE FEE BUT IN THIS CASE HE WOULD AUTHORIZE IT TO BE CREDITED TOWARD THE ACTUAL COST OF REPAIR SHOULD I CHOOSE TO GO FORWARD WITH THE REPAIR. I WAS AND AM STILL NOT ABLE TO DO SO.. AFTER SEVERAL UNRESPONSIVE ATTEMPTS TO RELAY ALL THIS TO NISSAN I BELIEVE SOME GOVERNMENT ACTION SHOULD BE TAKEN TO FORCE THEM TO TAKE THIS SAFETY ISSUE SERIOUSLY ENOUGH TO PREVENT ANY FORESEEABLE TRAGEDIES.
