Critical loss of power on the highway nearly causing multi-car accident and personal injury. No warning lights. No notice of any kind. The car would not rev or accelerate regardless of gear or effort. Would not fix after trying to restart the car several times once I was able to get somewhere safe and calm down. This is the 5th time this has happened in 1,600 miles but 1st time on a +25 mph road, other times driving down the street to school. Brand new car purchased in August. 33 Nissan (dealer) has had the car over a week and cannot replicate or find any codes. Car is unsafe to drive, yet dealer states to "come and get it". Contacting attorney. This is NOT driver error: I have solely driven manual transmission cars for the past 20 years.

- Calais, VT, USA

The contact owns a 2024 Nissan Versa. The contact stated while driving at approximately 45 MPH and as she was accelerating to merge onto a highway, the vehicle was losing forward momentum. The contact depressed the accelerator pedal and was still losing forward momentum. The contact manually shifted the vehicle to a lower gear and depressed the accelerator pedal but the vehicle was only driving at 30 MPH and no faster. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact had pulled over and turned the vehicle off and on and was able to regain normal vehicle function. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent, but was a recurring failure. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a local dealer or independent mechanic.

Brand new Versa delivered 8/16/2024. Started to hear chirping, whirring noise from clutch pedal when halfway depressed (right before bite) and also when releasing pedal, halfway up, when engine is warm. First started at 1200 miles and continues presently. Taken to Nissan dealership on 10/8/2024 and was told their mechanics don-??t have the time to drive around and make engine warm to reproduce clutch symptoms. Major concern as this is brand new from the Nissan factory already exhibiting major clutch symptoms indicative of faulty release bearing/release fork, causing potentially catastrophic transmission damage a few hundred or thousand miles from now, when it could have otherwise been prevented promptly, under factory warranty. Vehicle is available for inspection by NHTSA. No one injured.

My car is equipped with a 5 speed manual transmission and I stalled on a hill and was alerted to a check engine light and reduced power.

- Moore, OK, USA

After four months of driving without incident, all of a sudden, the car repeatedly stalled. When I restarted the car, no matter how much I pushed on the gas pedal, it wouldn't accelerate. At one point, I had the gas pedal to the floor, but the rpm indicator stayed very low and the car was only able to go around 30 mph. It was clear the car couldn't be driven safely, so we had it towed to the dealer, and the dealer said he couldn't replicate the problem, but the dealer has recently had a lot of problems, so I wouldn't take them at their word.

I just purchased my 2024 Nissan VERSA two weeks ago August 24, 2024. Since I have had it my car doesn-??t seem to want to shift speed like it should. My transmission seems to be stalling to change out. My car also constantly makes a growling noise when left I-??m on my brakes sitting. I took my car back to the dealerships and they tried tell me that it was the compressor which is false my AC nor my defrost is on. I really need this problem resolved. The noise it-??s making is unbelievable coming from a brand new car.

My 2024 Nissan Versa 5 speed has gone into limp mode approximately 4 times in 6 months. When this happens you can-??t accelerate which could be a great safety issue

- Oxford , NC, USA

Problem Description: Loss of acceleration in 5-speed manual S trim model. It seems that almost every time you stall this car, it will enter a "limp mode" or something like that, where your RPMs are capped for the rest of the drive, until you turn off the car and fully restart it. In this mode, even in 1st gear, you can go (from a stop) about 5 mph tops, if there is any incline. I am a new standard transmission driver, so stalling is at the moment not rare. This means my car enters this dangerous state often. 1. I am unsure what exact component(s) failed, or even if this is a fail rather than some intentional "safe" mode. 2. Because I live in the hill country, acceleration from a stop is almost nothing in this "limp" mode, which put me in a very dangerous situation. It caused me to crawl through an oncoming traffic lane as I was turning left into a turn lane, since I did not realize this mode had been activated. Had I been shooting a gap in traffic, I would have likely been hit at 70+ mph. 3. Not as of yet, but online research suggests this is not a new issue. 4. No. 5. No. This is a brand new car, and this limp state is not indicated by anything other than extreme loss of power until you reset the car.

Vehicle has 3000 miles on it - driving across country. Was driving on to on ramp to highway when vehicle stopped execeleraring. Would rev and rev. We were headed straight into a merge onto the highway and I told my husband to get off immediately.. we slowly got off the road to the side and kept trying. It would not go very fast but kept reving. We turned on and off. No warning lights on dash. Nothing. Tried again nothing called my son who works at a car dealership told us to turn off then remove key - did that and was able to get car to go back to normal. - we researched and transmission slipping is exactly what is described as what was happening. We are in a very dangerous situation. In the middle of nowhere 1000 miles from home. Bought this for my 16 year old son as a reliable car.. I can-??t let him Drive this thing. Had we made it on the highway and this happened a minute later. Or my son Driving on the highway. This is unacceptable. Reading all the complaints and how long this has been an issue is sickening that I was able to purchase this car

Today (XXX), After shifting my manual 5 speed transmission into first gear it stalled. I restarted my car then proceeded to drive on the highway in a severely reduced power mode "Limp Mode". I could not reach highway speed and this created a very unsafe condition with tractor trailers behind me. The power loss only allowed speeds up to about 45 MPH. Acceleration was very slow. I will contact my Nissan Dealership in Erie, PA tomorrow. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Lack of power in my manual 1,2 and 3 gears

- Pinckney , MI, USA

This morning after a "cold start" to drive to work, I entered a primary road that takes me to the interstate. I noticed throttle input seemed "delayed". Once on the interstate while attempting to merge, the car had zero power. Full throttle in third, fourth and fifth gear allowed only 60mph. I drove about two miles to the next exit and made my way back home on secondary roads to my house. Once home, I scanned for DTC's with my scan tool. A P2615 was received, "Cam Position Signal Output Circuit Low" I cleared the code, started back on my drive to work, car performed as expected with no power loss. This is about a 40 mile drive. I have seen complaints of "power loss" after a stall. My cars symptom was after a cold start and no stall.

I purchased a 2024 Nissan Versa S 5 Speed approx. two months ago. Upon driving the first week, the engine would rev high in between shifting (not rev hang) and made the vehicle almost impossible to drive smooth. I have been driving manuals for 34 years. I planned on taking the car to the dealer to check when I had time. Then by week two to four, a rattle developed under the shifter adn center console. Lastly, the car went into limp mode for no reason and with no check engine light. I turned the car off and on again. The problem went away. I took the vehicle to the dealer 2.5 weeks ago and haven't seen the car since. The head mechanic said the problem was a cam sensor and every time he fixed the problem, the car would do the same thing every morning. He also said Nissan was aware of this problem with the manual Versa, and the fix is to "wait". I since discovered I am not the only one and how dangerous this glitch it. Imagine trying to exit on the highway only to go into limp mode. I am scared to drive this car and will not put my family in this car now. I don't even have 3K on the odometer. They also can't find the cause of the loud rattling sound either.

The car is not safe to drive. The car enters limp mode, restricting the acceleration and RPMs of the vehicle. Driving on the highway in speed zones of 50-65 MPH puts the driver and other motorists at risk because the car cannot accelerate normally. Driving on back roads in speed zones <50 puts the driver and other motorists at risk because the car lacks the power and speed to climb hills. There are also many blind curves on the back roads, adding another hazard. There is no indication that the car has entered limp mode--no warning lights or messages. The only way to know that you're in limp mode is to experience the symptoms. This mode cannot be reliably entered in any single way. The stalling of the engine seems to be related; however, the car does not enter limp mode after every stall and limp mode isn't always entered after a stall. I have experienced the mode on the highway and on back roads. The onset of the mode has happened from initial start up and while driving. Acceleration and the ability to climb hills is impeded whenever this mode is engaged. 3 out of 4 times that I experienced the car entering this mode were preceded by a stall. One of the stalls occurred when the backup sensor mistakenly detected an object and the car automatically braked. The other two stalls occurred after the clutch had already been released. 2 out of the 4 times that I experienced the car entering this mode, the car had driven for 20+ miles before entering limp mode, including at highway speeds. The 1 instance that was not preceded by a stall, the car could not accelerate to highway speed and could not climb hills in any gear but 1st gear. The car stayed in this mode the first restart and only exited the mode after 15 minutes before restart. The last instance was 3/25/24. The Nissan Service Center where I brought the car to was able to replicate the issue by stalling the car in 3rd gear. The same service center entered the claim to Nissan on March 26, 2024.

The car went into limp home mode after it stalled. This is unsafe if I can't get up to speed on the highways because it puts me at risk of getting hit by other cars. I contacted the dealer about this, but they have not provided a fix yet. There were no warning lights, there was just reduced power. The only way to resume getting full power was to pull of the road to restart the engine.
