   I am the first owner of this car. I noticed the windows would make an air like sound everytime im driving on the freeway. Ive owned many vehicles and have never heard this before. One day, which was yesterday. the window (passenger) was rolled up, and while on the freeway, it exploded all over my friend. nothing made impact, there was no shatter indication. it completely exploded. it turned completely white (a full shatter) in a half a second and shattered. nothing hit the window. the window was rolled up. and my friend was looking out it. my ac was on medium, and it was about 80 degrees. so i dont know if the glass wasnt tempered properly or what. but this was terrifying we got glass in our drinks, we got microcuts all over us. this was traumatic.

   Issue: The rear windshield suddenly imploded while the defroster was turned on while on the road, causing significant fear and glass debris. We were driving when it happened, sending glass all on the road. Photos are available. It's currently at the dealership, awaiting repair. The car has only been inspected by the dealer as far as I am aware. There was no warning messages or lights prior to shattering, only a strong electrical burning smell moments beforehand.

   Electrical/ECU failure while shifting gears (manual transmission), can be inspected by dealership. Vehicle stalled while going into 2nd gear and could not crank/start, happened in busy intersection, emergency tow had to be called, could have easily gotten hit/injured. Problem has not yet been reproduced or confirmed by dealer/service center. Has been inspected, but only to replace the blown fuse, not to solve the underlying issue. No warning lights prior to failure, only a fuse that keeps blowing (15 amp, slot 55), alarm/beeping does sound when key is turned (possible anti-theft).

   When you take off from stopping, it jerks some and doesn't want to move. It also will stop in the middle of the road while driving. I bought this car new in 2024. It's very dangerous especially when I have children in the car. It has happened several times.

10. Filed Feb 19, 2026Failure Feb 19, 2026O Fallon, MOPower train

    The car has 56000 miles and the power train is still under warranty. The CVT belt recently started slipping. When I stop and then take off normally, there is a jitter in the transmission that can be felt and heard. Sometimes it is quite loud and vibrated quite heavily to the point there is concern it will break or fail. It also hesitates at times when accelerating from a stop or slow down and you can hear and feel the slippage before it kicks in. I took it to St Charles Nissan stating they test drove it and the jittering happened twice. The dealership says that Nissan told them this is normal ans all Nissans do this in Ludington new ones. Mine did not do this when it was new. My daughter has a new Nissn Versa and hers does not do this. The dealership says they can investigate further by re wording the anomaly and will charge me if Nissan says they won't cover it under warranty. Very distressing.

    First this is an AUTOMATIC. NOT A MANUAL. Nissan Versa S. 14000 miles. Bought used. The vehicle will drive then all the lights on the dash will turn on. The tachometer will then go to zero and will no longer move. The vehicle will then only go 20 mph (limp mode). I can move to a parking lot. I will then attempt to start it and it will not even turn over. After about 10 to 15 attempts, it will start. The engine light will remain on. The dealership (of course) cannot duplicate the problem but we do have it on video happening. They also said it needs to happen when they drive it. Last time I only get a few miles down the road from the service center when it happened. Had to be towed back. This problem has occurred at least 5 times. Sometimes its just the engine light that turns on. Other times its all lights. It has gone into limp mode at least 3 times during operation.

    Purchased brand new 2024 Nissan Versa January 2025. In April 2025 with only 1100 miles on the engine the CVT failed. Nissan replaced it with a rebuilt CVT. On [XXX] the second CVT failed and the car had to be towed in. This is a dangerous situation and I have told Nissan they need to buy back the car from me. I live in Phoenix which has many dangerous highways and if the engine failed on one of those highways it could cost me my life because when it fails it goes into what the tow truck drivers call limp mode and I can't go more than 5 to 10 miles an hour on a highway where people routinely Drive 80 miles an hour INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

    My roof dents extremely easily and it seems after searching the internet this appears to be somewhat of a problem with this model and I am sure there is some type of pressure rating it should conform to to be safe? I had a pretty big dent appear out of nowhere one day on the car roof we noticed and not sure how it got there; like it just indented itself--no damage to paint, really looked like someone landed on it with their butt? I put just some relatively minor pressure on the roof to see about popping it out and dented it with my elbows when trying to test to pop it back out?

18. Filed Jun 8, 2025Failure Jun 7, 2025El Cajon, CAEngine

    Recently began driver training on this vehicle with my son (at approximate vehicle mileage of 8,500). Vehicle is manual transmission and had never previously been stalled. Once vehicle had been stalled during driver training, reduced vehicle power was available, creating an unsafe condition when attempting to merge into traffic or driving on an uphill grade. The issue produced no warning message or CEL but did produce a pending OBDII error code of P2615 (camshaft signal output circuit low). The error appears to resolve after a full restart (shut down, unlock and open door, close door, restart). The error is reproducible and has occurred on multiple occasions. The error does not reset if simply restarting vehicle without opening door between restart. I have scheduled an appointment for evaluation by dealer, but it has not yet been confirmed by dealer. I believe this is a manufacturing defect, as the same issue occurs on another identical car owned by me.

    I have a manual transmission and can usually go up a steep hill by my house in 3rd gear. But on this occasion in 2nd gear I was unable to maintain speed even with the gas pedal all the way to the floor. It was also having trouble maintaining speed on less steep highway hills. The dealer replaced the alternator which helped, but I feel this puts my safety and others at risk because I was going much slower than expected and felt that I might not even be able to get up the hill. After the alternator was replaced, it has not happened again. There were no warnings then or after, but the dealer said there a code for fuel sensor that they could detect with their computer.
