NHTSA Complaint #11123512 — 2014 NISSAN VERSA

TRANSMISSION PROBLEM: I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW FOR MY DAUGHTER JULY 2013. LAST YEAR IT STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS SHIFTING GEARS. THIS YEAR THE PROBLEM GOT WORSE. WE RECEIVED A RECALL CARD IN THE MAIL STATING TO BRING IT IN TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION. THE RECALL WAS ONLY FOR REPROGRAMMING THE COMPUTER. AFTER BRINGING IT IN, THE CAR SHUT DOWN ON HER AS SHE WAS DRIVING HOME. I'M THANKFUL WE LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN. I CALLED NISSAN'S CORPORATE OFFICE TO COMPLAIN. A REPRESENTATIVE NAMED PATRICK (615) 725-7359 WAS ASSIGNED MY COMPLAINT.. HE SAID THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO BECAUSE THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. I STILL HAVE A YEAR LEFT TO PAY FOR THE CAR. NISSAN DEALERSHIP CHARGED $2990 TO FIX THE CAR. I HAVE READ SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION IN THESE CARS AND SAFETY HAZARDS. NOTHING IS BEING DONE!!
