CarComplaints.com Notes: Be aware the 2007-2011 Nissan Versa was recalled in the US in May 2016 & July 2017 for defective Takata airbags that are potentially deadly. Many Versa owners have reported problems getting Nissan dealers to complete the recall repair, due to scheduling problems & parts shortages.
If you are considering purchasing a 2007-2011 Nissan Versa, call your local Nissan dealer with the VIN# & ask if the airbag recall has been done.
Had transmission replaced at 3000 under warranty, after multiple trips to the shop, to get them to drive with me to see that it was grinding going into gears. Still did not drive quite right. The dealer said it was fine - just the way these cars are. At 19000 miles was getting worse but dealer would do nothing. They said that was covered under warranty till 75,000 miles and if it was going to go bad from this it would go bad by then. Dealership won't do anything till it completely fails. They are not sure what is wrong with the transmission..
