CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2012-2017 Nissan Versa has an expensive CVT transmission failure defect that shows up plainly in our complaint data from the earlier model years in this 2nd generation Nissan Versa.

In late 2019, the CVT defect was subject to a class action settlement. However the settlement only covers transmission repairs up to 7 years after purchase or 84,000 miles (whichever occurs first).

Because many owners commonly drive 20,000 miles/year or more, Versa owners experiencing CVT transmission problems may find they are not covered by this settlement due to the mileage limitation.

The ac ok my car keeps going out. This year it was so bad that if I had accidentally turned it on while I was driving that the car would completely stop and I could be dangerously hurt while driving. The steering wheel would lock up also. I have contacted Nissan numerous times and they wouldn't even let me talk to anyone that could possibly help. The vehicle initially turned off when I was making a uturn after leaving work so I parked it so I wouldn't be stranded or black traffic.
