Most Recent Complaints
Rear windshield shattered for no reason. It was cold out. There were no chips in the back windshield. Was driving the car for a few minutes and heard a loud bang and then back windshield was shattered.
vehicle change to limp mode randomly. i need to stop turn all off wait 1 minute to restables the normal power on engine.
The issue that I am experiencing has been intermittent, however it seems to be a safety concern that Nissan is not taking seriously. As I am driving at any speed with no cars around me the car collision icon will come on and flash as well as the front portion of the car in the advanced driver assistant system will flash yellow. This has happened on more than one occasion, but will always go away eventually. I believe that my safety is at risk because what if I was driving with my cruise control on and this occurred, would it slam on my brakes causing an accident? It has not been duplicated by the dealership that I have taken my car to however I have been able to record it several times when it occurred. There are no other warning lights that come up when this occurs, however I have codes that show that some of my radar sensors are not functioning properly. Nissan has not done anything about this issue and has dismissed it as a common problem with the vehicle when it clearly is a safety issue.
The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Versa. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. In addition, the contact stated that the vehicle seemed sluggish, and the vehicle failed to accelerate above 30 MPH. The contact stated that several times, the vehicle was driven to the shoulder and the vehicle was turned off. The contact stated that when the vehicle was started, the vehicle was driven without further failure. The vehicle was taken to the dealer several times; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 1,300.
If the vehicle stalls when starting or depressing the clutch too fast, the vehicle will sometimes enter a low power (limp mode), where the driver can floor the accelerator and the car will barely accelerate. The absolutely max speed when this happens seems to be around 55 and it takes 30 seconds to reach this speed. Turning the car off and letting it sit for 15 seconds, and then restarting the car seems to fix the problem. This has happened to me 3 times over the past 2 years.
