NHTSA Complaint #10398418 — 2010 NISSAN VERSA

I AM VERY MUCH MOTIVATED TO WRITE ABOUT NISSAN VERSA, THE COMPACT/ECONOMY VEHICLE. I HAVE DRIVEN THIS CAR FOR ABOUT 8 HOURS AND ON BOTH OCCASIONS IT WAS THE SAME DREADFUL EXPERIENCE. THIS CAR LACKS 'BALANCING ABILITY', SPECIALLY ON THE HIGHWAYS, THAT MEANS, IF U DRIVE IT AT UNTIL 40MPH, IT IS FINE & NORMAL, BEYOND THAT IT STARTS SHAKING SO BAD THAT YOU CANNOT EVEN BLINK YOUR EYE OR AFFORD TO TAKE UR HANDS AWAY FROM THE STEERING WHEEL. THE FIRST TIME, I DROVE THIS CAR, I SUFFERED THE FIRST ACCIDENT OF MY LIFE...AND I PRAY TO GOD THAT NOONE EVER EXPERIENCES THAT KIND OF AN IMBALANCING. BASICALLY THE CAR TOTALLY LOST CONTROL & I COULD DO NOTHING TO STABILIZE THE CAR. THAT HAPPENED IN DELAWARE. YESTERDAY, APRIL 30, I WAS DRIVING IT ON INDIANA DUNES HIGHWAY & I-94, CHICAGO, PERHAPS IT WAS THE WIND, BUT IT ONLY MADE THE SHAKING MUCH WORSE. I HAD A FRIEND DRIVE IT AND HE WAS SCARED TO DEATH TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. DRIVING THIS CAR IS LIKE RIDING ON A ROLLER COASTER RIDE, BUT I WAS THE ONE BEHIND THE WHEELS. IF I HAD THE MONEY, I WOULD DEFINITELY GO AHEAD AND SUE NISSAN FOR EVEN RELEASING THIS VEHICLE OUT FOR ROADS. DRIVING A NISSAN VERSA IS LIKE KAYAKING THROUGH THE MIRAGE OF GORGES.....YOU HAVE TO BE ATTENTIVE ALL THE TIME, IT TENDS TO SLIP TO THE LEFT SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WONT STAY IN ONE LANE. IT IS LIKE TRYING TO KEEP YOUR BOAT/ TUBE IN ONE STRAIGHT POSITION WHILE THE BOAT KEEPS FLYING AWAY...EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT. I SWEAR IF I HAD SUFFERED ANOTHER ACCIDENT YESTERDAY, I WOULD HAVE SUED NISSAN BLINDLY, WITHOUT A SECOND THOUGHT. AND I AM SURPRISED HOW COME NOONE HAS SUED THEM YET FOR SELLING A PLASTIC TOY FOR THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS!!! *TR
