2024 Nissan Versa problems

“Purchased brand new 2024 Nissan Versa January 2025. In April 2025 with only 1100 miles on the engine the CVT failed. Nissan replaced it with a rebuilt CVT. On [XXX] the second CVT failed and the car had to be towed in. This is a dangerous situation and I have told Nissan they need to buy back the car from me. I live in Phoenix which has many dangerous highways and if the engine failed on one of those highways it could cost me my life because when it fails it goes into what the tow truck drivers call limp mode and I can't go more than 5 to 10 miles an hour on a highway where people routinely Drive 80 miles an hour”

“The car has 56000 miles and the power train is still under warranty. The CVT belt recently started slipping. When I stop and then take off normally, there is a jitter in the transmission that can be felt and heard. Sometimes it is quite loud and vibrated quite heavily to the point there is concern it will break or fail. It also hesitates at times when accelerating from a stop or slow down and you can hear and feel the slippage before it kicks in. I took it to St Charles Nissan stating they test drove it and the jittering happened twice. The dealership says that Nissan told them this is normal ans all Nissans do this in Ludington new ones. Mine did not do this when it was new. My daughter has a new Nissn Versa and hers does not do this. The dealership says they can investigate further by re wording the anomaly and will charge me if Nissan says they won't cover it under warranty. Very distressing.”

“The car is a manual transmission. I stalled the vehicle by accident and after turning the engine on again the vehicle experienced loss of power as if it was in some kind of limp mode. The cars now able to accelerate past 25-30 mph in any gear for the remainder of the trip home.”

“Electrical/ECU failure while shifting gears (manual transmission), can be inspected by dealership. Vehicle stalled while going into 2nd gear and could not crank/start, happened in busy intersection, emergency tow had to be called, could have easily gotten hit/injured. Problem has not yet been reproduced or confirmed by dealer/service center. Has been inspected, but only to replace the blown fuse, not to solve the underlying issue. No warning lights prior to failure, only a fuse that keeps blowing (15 amp, slot 55), alarm/beeping does sound when key is turned (possible anti-theft).”

“I purchased my NEW 2024 Versa S 5 speed on [XXX] from Jim Click Nissan Dealership in Tucson, AZ. I brought it in to Nissan dealership 2 months later [XXX], 4200 mi, for complaints of surging, fluctuating fan speeds with air conditioning on high. They claim they couldn’t reproduce problem. It continues to persist to this day as I write this on 4/20/25. I checked the alternator myself with multimeter on 4/12/25 & it revealed ACV ripple of 29-30 volts! Battery at rest 12.7 dcv, battery at idle 13.8 dcv, battery 13.9 dcv under load, and repeatedly producing same values on morning of [XXX], just minutes before bringing car in to Jim Click service appointment for follow up of fan fluctuations & request for alternator check up. However these data results conflict with Jim Click Nissan Dealership diagnosis on 4/18/25 service visit when they stated and documented that the charging system tests all passed & alternator is fine, and witnessed no a/c fan fluctuation. Thus no repairs done, and sent me on my way. As soon as I drove off the dealership lot on that [XXX] evening, the car lost power and went into limp mode as I accelerated out of the parking lot, and continued…”

“I am the first owner of this car. I noticed the windows would make an air like sound everytime im driving on the freeway. Ive owned many vehicles and have never heard this before. One day, which was yesterday. the window (passenger) was rolled up, and while on the freeway, it exploded all over my friend. nothing made impact, there was no shatter indication. it completely exploded. it turned completely white (a full shatter) in a half a second and shattered. nothing hit the window. the window was rolled up. and my friend was looking out it. my ac was on medium, and it was about 80 degrees. so i dont know if the glass wasnt tempered properly or what. but this was terrifying we got glass in our drinks, we got microcuts all over us. this was traumatic.”
