2009 NISSAN VERSA Unknown Or Other Problems

BEFORE WE CAN GET THE CAR FIXED WHILE THE AIRBAG RECALL WAS IN EFFECT, WHILE DRIVING THE CAR CAUGHT ON FIRE.

HANDLE ON DOOR CAME OFF RECALL ON AIR BAGS

THERE IS A RECALL ON NISSAN VERSA COIL SPRINGS. MY SPRING BROKE WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE ON A BUSY ROAD PRIOR TO THE RECALL. I HAD BOTH SPRINGS REPLACED DUE TO EXCESSIVE RUSTING (REASON FOR RECALL). UPON RECALL... DEALER NOTIFIED ME. SAID THE SPRINGS MUST BE REPLACED AGAIN BY A NISSAN DEALER. THEY QUOTED A PRICE OF $490 TO ME SAYING THAT THE CURRENT SPRINGS ARE IN GOOD SHAPE, BUT STRIPPED BOLTS DUE TO PRIOR REPLACEMENT. NOT ONLY DO THEY NOT REIMBURSE THE ADDITIONAL $490 FOR THE REPLACEMENT... THAT MUST BE PAID UP FRONT PRIOR TO REQUESTING THE COIL SPRING REIMBURSEMENT THEY SAY THAT THE CURRENT SPRINGS ARE FINE... AND THAT THE STRIPPED BOLTS DO NOT CAUSE ANY PROBLEMS.... OTHER THAN DOING THE REPLACEMENT, WHICH IS UNNECESSARY!!!! WHY ARE THEY CHARGING ME FOR A REIMBURSEMENT.... THE WAY I SEE IT, THEY ARE MAKING MONEY OFF A RECALL.... NOT EXACTLY THE WAY...

THE TRUNK OF THE NISSAN VERSA HATCHBATCH IS KEYLESS AND WILL NOT OPEN UPON UNLOCKING THE CAR DOORS.

TAKATA RECALL

TAKATA RECALL AND UNKNOWN

TAKATA RECALL PASSENGER AIRBAG ONE ON RECALL LIST, POSSIBLY DRIVER'S IS NOT SAFE ACCORDING TO THE SAFETY OF SAFECAR..GOVERNMENT DAD 81 HAS TO SIT IN BACK AND MY SIDE COULD HURT OR KILL ME!

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.

PREMATURE MUFFLER CORROSION, INSUFFICIENT ANTI-CORROSION COATING: MUFFLER (CENTER & REAR) RUSTED OFF AND DRAGGED ON THE GROUND, EMITTING LOUD NOISE AND CREATING AIR SAFETY HAZARD. CAR HAD < 40,000 MILES AND < 4 YEARS OLD AT THE TIME.

REAR HATCHBACK BUTTON IS NOT OPENING THE HATCHBACK. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE SPARE TIRE IS LOCATED IN THE CARGO AREA. THIS ONE DAY AT APPROXIMATELY 45,000 MILES STOPPED WORKING

IGNITION LOCK CYLINDER FAILURE.

I WAS PULLING OUT OF A WAWA AFTER FUELING UP WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THE CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I HAD TO PUSH IT TO THE SIDE. THE ROAD IS NORMALLY BUSY THANK GOD THIS DID NOT OCCUR DURING THE BUSY TIME. I GOT THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP I EXPLAINED TO THEM MY ISSUES THEY REPAIRED IT BY RESETTING THE ENGINE MODULE THING. I JUST TOOK THE CAR BACK IN MIDDLE OF MARCH DUE TO THE CAR RIDING ROUGH SERVICE LIGHT BACK ON AND THE ENGINE IS MAKING A LOT OF NOISE. THE CAR HAD 30379 MILES ON IT AT THIS POINT. THE DEALERSHIP DEMANDED OIL CHANGE RECEIPTS TOLD ME I NEEDED A NEW MOTOR. THEY TOLD ME I HAD TO PICK THE CAR UP AND IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. I LATER FOUND OUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE...

WITHIN WEEKS OF MY PURCHASE OF A 2009 NISSAN VERSA SL, I NOTICED, WHEN MAKING RIGHT OR LEFT TURNS AT SLOW SPEEDS (5-10 MPH), ESPECIALLY GOING OVER A BUMP AND WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED 1- 1 1/2 TIMES (AS IN GOING INTO A DRIVEWAY) I EXPERIENCE LOUD CLUNKING AND VIBRATIONS IN WHEEL, AND IT CAN BE EASILY HEARD COMING FROM THE STEERING COLUMN. THE CLUNK IS ALWAYS THERE AT 1 TO 1 1/4 TURN FROM THE FULL CLOCKWISE STOP. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN THE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS PROBLEM AT LEAST 5 TIMES; THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. SEVERAL TIMES, THE SERVICE WRITER SAID HE COULDN'T HEAR OR FEEL THE 'CLUNK' BUT THE MECHANIC SAID HE COULD. THE VERSA DOES MOVE AROUND QUITE A BIT AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE FREEWAY, BUT I AM UNSURE IF THAT IS CAUSED BY THE ABOVE DESCRIBED PROBLEM OR...

TWO FLAT TIRES ON SEPARATE WHEELS WITHIN A WEEK, BOTH DUE TO CRACKED TIRE PRESSURE MONITORS.

ON OCTOBER 28, 2008, I PURCHASED MY FIRST VEHICLE ' A 2009 NISSAN VERSA FROM TIM DAHLE NISSAN. MY EXPERIENCE WITH TIM DAHLE NISSAN HAS BEEN BOTH FRUSTRATING AND DISCOURAGING. THE INCOMPETENCE AND LACK OF CARE EXHIBITED BY THE SALESMEN AND GENERAL MANAGER IS BEYOND BELIEF. THE DAY THAT I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE, MY SALESMAN RICH VANPATTEN DID NOT CARE TO MENTION TO ME THAT THE NISSAN VERSA DOES NOT COME EQUIPPED WITH AN ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM. I DISCOVERED THIS FACT WHILE READING THE OWNER'S MANUAL AND REALIZED THAT ABS IS AN OPTIONAL PACKAGE THAT A CUSTOMER MAY CHOSE TO ADD TO THEIR VEHICLE. I AM COMPLETELY ASTOUNDED THAT NISSAN HAS CHOSEN NOT TO MAKE ABS A STANDARD SAFETY FEATURE IN THE VERSA. ALTHOUGH ABS HAS NOT PROVEN TO DECREASE THE AMOUNT OF ACCIDENTS CAUSED, IT CREATES A WAY OF DRIVING AND SWERVING IN WINTER CONDITIONS THAT SOMEONE SUCH AS...
