2009 NISSAN VERSA Suspension Problems

The contact owns a 2009 Nissan Versa. The contact stated that while driving out of a parking lot at 10 MPH, the front end of the vehicle made an abnormally loud sound, and the contact noticed a strong rubber odor. The contact inspected underneath the vehicle and became aware that a part had fractured underneath the vehicle. The contact was able to reverse into the parking space. Several independent mechanics were contacted and advised that the failure might be related to the front coil springs corrosion and associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V573000 (Suspension); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The contact stated that even though the vehicle was not registered in the States listed in the recall, the vehicle had been driven in one of the States listed while the contact was in school. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage...

There is a safety recall campaign for the front coil springs breaking for all Nissan Versas registered in "salt states" The car is registered in a "salt state" and the the front coil has snapped. For a reason that neither corporate Nissan nor the local Nissan service center can explain, this car is excluded from repair.

MY SPRING BROKE WHILE PULLING INTO A TIRE SHOP AND WENT FLYING ACROSS A PARKING LOT, LEAVING PART OF THE BROKEN SPRING STUCK IN THE CRADLE.

REPLACING THE EXHAUST THE REAR SPRINGS WERE BROKEN TO THE POINT THE INSULATORS FELL OUT . THE SPRINGS ON BOTH THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE WERE BREAKING. THERE WASN'T ANY SIGNIFICANT RUST ON THE SPRINGS THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE FRONT WHICH WAS DONE. THE INSULATORS MISSING MAKES A METAL TO METAL CONTACT WHICH WOULD MAKE IT WEAR OUT FASTER AND MORE PRONE TO RUST. WHY ARE THE SPRINGS BREAKING?

FRONT COIL SPRING BROKE WHILE DRIVING

BROUGHT MY CAR IN FOR RECALLS AN DEALERSHIP DECIDED TO BREAK MY CAR AN NOT NOTIFY ABOUT BREAKKING OTHER PARTS THERE WERE NOT RECALLED AN I NEED A LF SWAY BAR LINK RF BALL JOINT AN COUPLE OTHER PARTS THEY BROKE MY RF SWAY BAR LINK AN NEVER TOLD ME WHEN I CALLED 4 TIMES THAT DAY. I EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED TO DEALERSHIP AN COOPERATE AN NOW MY CAR IS NOT DRIVEABLE BECAUSE IT IS HIGHLY UNSAFE AN IM VERY PISSED I HAVE A 8 MONTH OLD BABY WITH MEDICAL PROBLEMS AN CANT USE MY CAR

DRIVER SIDE REAR COIL SPRING BROKE

WHEN BACKING CAR MAKES A MOANING NOISE. I JUST LEARNED OF A RECALL FOR FRONT SPRINGS COIL SPRINGS. RECALL ID 239045. YOUR SITE SAYS THAT MY CAR ISNT UNDER IT BUT SHOULD BE. THE CAR TO MY KNOWLEDGE WAS FIRST SOLD IN FLORIDA. I BOUGHT IT FROM CARMAX IN VA. FLORIDA WAS NOT ONE OF THE RECALL STATES BUT VA IS. WE USE ROAD SALT HERE. IT SEEMS TO DO IT IN HOT WEATHER.

WHILE DRIVING IN THE FREEWAY AND ON THE STREET SEVERAL OCCASIONS, MY CAR WAS FEELING AS IF IT WAS GOING TO DIE ON ME WITH LOW POWER. I FELT REALLY UNSAFE. ONE DAY, I WAS DRIVING, THE CAR WAS TOO WEAK, I DECIDED TO DRIVE IT DIRECTLY TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN CERRITOS BECAUSE I KNEW THAT WAS IT, I WAS GOING TO DEFINETLY BE STRANDED. I WAS THERE FOR ABOUT 5 HOURS AND FINALLY I WAS TOLD THAT THE COIL NEEDED REPLACEMENT. LESS THAN A YEAR, I WAS TOLD THE COIL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. I RECENTLY SAW ON KELLY BLUE BOOK WEBSITE THAT THE COIL IS A RECALL. I NOTIFIED THE DEALER AND I AM TOLD THAT IT IS NOT A RECALL.

THE COIL SPRINGS THAT NISSAN INSTALLED IN MY CAR DUE TO THE 2015 RECALL HAVE, NOW, BOTH BROKEN AGAIN. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS REFUSES TO HELP ME WITH THE COST OF REPLACING THESE FAULTY PARTS BECAUSE THEY ARE 'OUT OF WARRANTY!' I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE SINCE 2012 WHEN THE FIRST COIL SPRING BROKE, PUNCTURED MY TIRE, AND ALMOST CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THE CAR WAS IN MOTION WHEN THE MOST RECENT BREAK HAPPENED, I WAS TURNING OUT OF MY ALLEY WAY ONTO THE ROAD.

I LIVE IN THE KANSAS CITY METRO, ON THE KANSAS SIDE, LESS THAN 10 MINUTES FROM THE BORDER TO MISSOURI. THERE IS A CURRENT RECALL THAT APPLIES TO THE FRONT COIL SPRINGS OF NISSAN VERSAS (NHTSA RECALL 17V-637) BECAUSE THE SPRINGS HAVE INSUFFICIENT CORROSION COATING.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION IN THE MAIL, CALLED THE NUMBER, BUT WAS TOLD IT WILL BE UNTIL "SPRING" UNTIL I CAN HAVE MY CAR'S DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAGS FIXED. UNTIL THEN, INSTRUCTED TO DRIVE MY CAR.

I HAVE 2 PROBLEMS. THE FIRST IS NISSAN CLAIMS TO NOT SUPPORT RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE BECAUSE IT HAS A SALVAGE TITLE. THE SECOND IS THAT I WAS NOT INFORMED OF A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE FOR OVER 2 YEARS. IN 2015 I HAD A FRONT SUSPENSION COIL SPRING FRACTURE. I THOUGHT THIS WAS UNUSUAL AND WENT TO THE LOCAL DEALER AND BOUGHT AN OEM REPLACEMENT COIL AND REPLACED THE BROKEN SPRING MYSELF. IN 2017 BOTH OTHER COIL SPRING FAILED AS WELL AS THE REPLACEMENT I HAD BOUGHT FROM THE DEALER IN 2015. AT THIS POINT I RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET AND DISCOVERED THE RECALL ON THIS PART. I REPLACED THE FAILED SPRINGS WITH AFTERMARKET PARTS TO GET THE CAR BACK ON THE ROAD. I THEN SUBMITTED PAPERWORK TO NISSAN FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF THE REPLACEMENT PARTS. I WAS JUST INFORMED BY NISSAN THAT THEY WILL REIMBURSE ME FOR...

WE TOOK OUR NISSAN VERSA INTO TYNAN'S NISSAN (780 S HAVANA ST, AURORA, CO 80012) FOR THE RECALL ON THE COIL SPRINGS. AFTER THEY REPLACED THE COIL SPRINGS ON OUR LOW MILEAGE NISSAN VERSA, THE BALL JOINT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FAILED WITHIN 10 MILES OF THEM REPLACING THE COIL SPRINGS FOR THE RECALL. WHEN THIS HAPPENED IT PUT MY AMANDA AND OUR CHILD IN DANGER. LUCKILY THEY ARE SAFE AND UNHARMED. JASON AT TYNAN'S NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENT INITIALLY APOLOGIZED AND SAID THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF EVERYTHING AND GAVE US A LOANER VEHICLE, NOW 3 DAYS LATER THEY ARE TRYING CHANGING THEIR STORY AND TRYING TO MAKE US PAY FOR THE DAMAGE THEY CAUSED DURING THE RECALL REPAIR. THERE IS NO WAY THAT A PASSENGER SIDE BALL JOINT WOULD COINCIDENTALLY BREAK ON A LOW MILEAGE CAR IMMEDIATELY AFTER COIL SPRING REPLACEMENT UNLESS THEY DID SOMETHING WRONG TO THE VEHICLE...

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN VERSA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 17V449000 (AIR BAGS), 17V028000 (AIR BAGS), AND 15V573000 (SUSPENSION). THE PARTS FOR THE RECALL REPAIRS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS UNSURE OF ANY FAILURE WITH THE VEHICLE'S SUSPENSION. THE CONTACTED CALLED SUNTRUP NISSAN (6000 S LINDBERGH BLVD, ST LOUIS, MO 632123) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE PART FOR THE RECALL REPAIR WOULD BE UNAVAILABLE UNTIL SPRING OF 2018.

VEHICLE EXPERIENCES KNOCKING IN THE STEERING COLUMN AT LOW SPEEDS/STATIONARY WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL CLOCKWISE AND COUNTER CLOCKWISE. THIS KNOCKING SYMPTOM IS AMPLIFIED WHEN VEHICLE TRAVELS OVER UNEVEN SURFACE AT ANY SPEED. WHEN BRAKING AT SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL SHIFTS VIOLENTLY IN OPERATORS HANDS. ROTORS AND PADS AS WELL AS STRUT ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACED IN AN ATTEMPT TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. SYMPTOMS CONTINUED AFTER THESE REPLACEMENTS. TIE ROD ENDS AND SWING BARS WERE LATER REPLACED WITH NO POSITIVE RESULTS. THIS LEAVE THE ASSUMPTION THAT THE ISSUE IS RELATED TO THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM. POSSIBLE DEFECT IN THE RACK AND PINION STEERING UNIT.

NHTSA # 16V349000 AIR BAG, NHTSA # 15V573000 SUSPENTION. AND TPSA TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR. ONLY ISSUE FAR IS WITH THE TPSA. IT STAYS ON, AFTER BEING RESETTED SEVERAL TIMES !NISSAN HAS NO CLUE HOW TO REMEDY THIS PROBLE.PASSENGER AIR BAG HAS BEEN TURNED OFF FOR SAFETY, HA H ! THANKS TAKATA! NISSAN SAYS THERE HAVING PROBLEMS GETTING RIGHT FRONT SWAY BAR. YA RIGHT!

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE SAYING THAT MY DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG MADE BY TAKATA NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND THAT PARTS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE SPRING OF 2018, AND THAT NISSAN WOULD SUPPLY ME WITH A LOANER CAR UNTIL THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE, WHEN I TALKED TO THE DEALER SHIP THEY SAID THAT I'M NOT ELIGIBLE FOR A LOANER BECAUSE I'M ONLY 23 YEARS OLD, MEANING IF YOUR UNDER 25 IT'S OK TO DRIVE A CAR THAT COULD TAKE YOUR LIFE. ALSO I FOUND OUT THAT MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND FRONT SPRINGS HAVE A RECALL ON THEM THAT I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED ABOUT, SO MY QUESTION IS ARE COMPANY ALOUD TO LEAVE UNSAFE VEHICLE ON THE ROAD LEAVING ME TO HOPE NOTHING WILL HAPPEN BECAUSE OF MY AGE? I HAVE NO TICKETS OR ACCIDENTS AND I'VE BEEN DRIVING SENSE I WAS 16 YEARS OLD. THANK YOU [XXX]...

THIS CAR HAS THE NHTSA RECALL 15V-573 , WHICH IS FOR THE FRONT SPRING SUSPENSION. YOU GUYS HAVE TO DO THE REAR RECALL FOR THE REAR SPRINGS BECAUSE THEY'VE RUSTED. LIKE IN MY CAR, THEY'RE RUSTED AND IT ONLY HAS 56,890 MILES. SO MY CAR IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE REAR SPRINGS. I'M SENDING THE PICTURES THAT I TOOK. THANKS SO MUCH.

FRONT COIL SPRING SHATTERED TEARING UP FRONT TIRE THIS EXACT PROBLEM WAS NOTED FOR VERSA IN RECALL 15V573000 DATE 09/14/2015. MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. IT APPEARS THAT THE RECALL WAS TO LIMITED. AFTER GETTING CAR REPAIRED NISSAN HAS REFUSED TO PAY FOR MY REPAIR COSTS STATING THE CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL. LUCKILY I PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY WHEN THE SPRING EXPLODED. I THINK THE RECALL WAS TO LIMITED AND I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED TO MY EXPENSES.

MY CAR IS UNDER 100,000 MILES AND FAILED INSPECTION DUE TO SUB FRAME BUSHING MISSING. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THESE PARTS USUALLY LAST FOR UP TO 200,000 MILES. HE ALSO TOLD ME MY TIRE COULD'VE COME RIGHT OFF THE CAR WITH THIS PART MISSING. THIS COULD'VE CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT OR FATALITY! CAN YOU PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. I'VE DOWN SOME RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND LOTS OF VERSAS FROM 2007-2009 MODELS HAVE BEEN HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS.

TOOK TO SEARS WHERE I RECENTLY BOUGHT TIRES AND HAD ALIGNED AND THEY SAID RIGHT FRONT COIL SPRING BROKE, AND TO TAKE TO NEAREST NISSAN DEALER AS THEY CAN'T GET SPRING. SAW THAT 22 STATES AND OVER 200K NISSAN VERSAS WERE RECALLED ALREADY. NISSAN DEALER SAID NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. I AM PAYING FOR REPAIR OUT OF POCKET. ONLY 77K MILES ON VEHICLE. A COIL SPRING SHOULD NOT BREAK WITH THIS FEW MILES. CAR WAS ORIGINALLY REGISTERED IN IDAHO WHERE SALT WAS USED. I LIVE IN WASHINGTON STATE WHERE IT GETS DOWN BELOW 20 DEGREES IN WINTER.

BUT I HAVE REAR SPRING BROKE AGAIN . MY REAR SPRING BROKE AFTER I TRY TO DRIVE FROM PARKING LOT. I HAVE TALKED TO NISSAN NORTH AMERICA THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO HELP CUSTOMER. BROKEN SPRING PROBLEM IS A PART OF NISSAN VERSA. IT IS DANGEROUS AND I CANT TRUST MY CAR.

I AM A US MARINE SERVING IN GERMANY. NISSAN HAS BEEN REFUSING TO REPLACE MY FRONT SPRINGS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RECALL BECAUSE I AM NOT IN NORTH AMERICA. LAST MONTH ONE OF THEM BROKE ON THE HIGHWAY. LUCKILY, NO ONE WAS HURT.

A RECALL WAS DONE ON THE FRONT SPRING COILS. I TOOK MY CAR IN TO HAVE RECALL COMPLETED ONLY TO FIND OUT MY BACK SPRING COILS ARE ALSO DAMAGED. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE FRONT CAN BE RECALLED AND THE BACK COILS ARE ALSO DEFECTED THE REASONING WHY THEY ARE NOT UNDER A RECALL.

I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT AND WENT TO CONTINENTAL NISSAN 5750 S LA GRANGE RD COUNTRYSIDE IL ON JULY 11, 2016. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT IF THEY BELIEVE CORRODED PARTS NEED TO BE REPLACED, I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR COST. I SPOKE TO [XXX] MY CASE #[XXX], SHE BEING A REPRESENTATIVE OF NISSAN ASSURED ME AS THE LETTER STATES: "THIS REPAIR IS FREE OF CHARGE FOR PARTS AND LABOR." THE DISCREPANCY FORCED ME TO LEAVE THE DEALERSHIP WITHOUT REPAID. TWO ADDITIONAL CALLS WERE PLACED TO [XXX] ON 7/11/2016 ASKING FOR COORDINATION WITH THE DEALERSHIP IN ORDER TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. I HAD TO WAIT THREE WEEKS IN ORDER TO GET THE VEHICLE INTO ANY LOCAL DEALERSHIP. THE CAR IS DISABLED WITH A BROKEN COIL SPRING AND HAS BEEN TOWED WITHOUT REPAIR. A SEVEN YEAR OLD VEHICLE EXPOSED TO ILLINOIS WINTERS SHOULD HAVE CORRODED PARTS. I REVIEWED THE PART COST THROUGH...

VEHICLE FAILED VIRGINIA SATE INSPECTION CITING BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT FRONT BALL JOINTS NEEDING REPLACED. THIS VEHICLE HAS JUST OVER 50,000 MILES AND IT SEEMS ODD THAT BOTH BALL JOINTS HAVE FAILED AT SUCH A LOW MILEAGE. WITH NISSANS RECALL OF OTHER PARTS OF THE FRONT END THIS SEEMS LIKE ANOTHER PART FAILURE.

LOUD CLUNKING/POPPING NOISE COMING FROM FRONT OF CAR WHILE DRIVING.

NISSAN CURRENTLY HAS A CAMPAIGN OPEN TO REPLACE FRONT COIL SPRINGS IN NORTHERN STATES. MY REAR COIL SPRING IS ALSO CRACKED/BROKEN AND NISSAN IS REFUSING TO REPLACE IT.

MY NISSAN VERSA WAS RECALLED LAST YEAR FOR FAULTY COIL SPRINGS. THE LETTER SAID THAT PARTS WILL BE READY IN JANUARY 2016. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH MY DEALER TO HAVE THE PARTS ORDERED AND REPLACED. IT IS ALMOST APRIL 2016 AND THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. I CALL MY DEALER ONCE A MONTH, THEY HAVE NOW CHOSEN TO SCREEN THEIR PHONE CALLS AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY SERVICE CALLS ABOUT THE RECALL. I THINK THAT NISSAN IS NOT PREPARED TO HANDLE THIS RECALL ON THE VERSA.

I HAD TO PAY TO HAVE THE STRUTS REPLACED WHEN THE DEALERSHIP BROKE THEM REMOVING THEM TO REPLACE THE SPRINGS. THE STRUTS AND SPRINGS ARE ONE UNIT AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN PART OF THE RECALL. THE SPRINGS DID NOT NEED REPLACED. I WAS CHARGED OVER $250 FOR A RECALL REPAIR THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE COVERED BY NISSAN.

DRIVER SIDE FRONT COIL SPRING BROKE WHILE DRIVING. APPEARED TO BE VERY RUSTED.
