I was driving on the freeway with my two kids on the far right lane when my car suddenly would not switch gears. in the past my car would jerk and i would push on the gas and it would not go anywhere.i looked this problem up on line and alot of people seem to have the same problem. i called nissan than they will not do anything about it they have told me the recall on the 2012 versa is closed. this was a very scary situation to be in. i do not feel safe in this car.

I was driving up a hill in ventura when the car lost power and started to roll backwards. prior to that the car would jerk like it would go into gear and would hesitate. finally the car would go forward and i had to stop at vons for the car to be towed. i was 58 miles from home. it was really scary but i was fortunate there were no other cars behind me and the car did not run off the ledge.

2014 Nissan Versa

Problems with transmission. rpm go very high and it won't switch gears, then after struggling it will switch gear but jerk the car very hard and you can hear it switch very hard. it does does in the street and highway. makes me very concerned about getting on a highway and my transmission failing to switch to higher gears and other cars hitting me for not being able to go into faster speeds. the vehicle is not even at the 50k miles yet.

2013 Nissan Versa

Starting at 50,000 miles the car started to make a squeaking noise when accelerating. the car was maintained by a mechanic and all belts were checked. there was no cars found at that time. after hitting approximately 50,000 miles i started having more issues that included louder noises from the engine, unexpected acceleration, and after letting the foot off of the gas pedal the car would slow down immensely. recently the car was checked again by my mechanic and it was found it was the transmission that was at fault. a few times with the car in park had severe tremors too. now with 75,000 miles the car is having strong jerks when being put i to reverse. also, when accelerating i need to let off the gas and allow the transmission time to change gear.

The POWER TRAIN
2014 Nissan Versa

I have a 2014 nissan versa. i got this car new and every year since owning this car there has been a issue with the transmission. nissan has had at least 3 recalls on the transmission. it has gotten to the point that the transmission is beyond repair on a 5 year old car. the transmission sensor and transmission has malfunctioned. the car will stall for a second before going into gear. mechanic shops said i need nissan to repair this or put me in a new car! i am complaining because i am in a death trap vehicle that i am still required to make payments on. i am having to pay high maintenance fees and car payments. in a car that can get me killed. nissan knows something is wrong with these 2014 cars but has not reached out to me about it. they recalled some 2014 versas but not all. i strongly believed i was sold a highly unsafe car. there's no reason why a new car should have transmission issues every year on a new car.
