CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2014-2017 Nissan Versa Note has an expensive CVT transmission failure defect that shows up plainly in our complaint data from earlier model years for the same generation.

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 Note owners experiencing CVT transmission problems may find they are not covered by this settlement due to the mileage limitation.

Versa Note LX 4 cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 48,000 miles

Drivers side trans-axle joint went bad. It took me several hours to replace. The part was under a $100. from eBay.

Both axles are available on eBay for $189.00.

Now both axles have needed to be replaced around 50,000 miles. Not impressive.

The 2 year old car was making a clicking sound. It was under warranty so I took it to the Nissan dealer. They replaced the right trans-axle. No charge. Less than 40,000 Miles.
