3 Electrical System problem of the 2014 Nissan Versa Note

Failure Date: 07/03/2024

Over the past 4 years I have delt with my 2014 Nissan Versa Note sv constantly stalling in the middle of the road. I have replaced the transmission, tcm, and brake light wiring harness. I have had the Nissan dealership assess my vehicle three different times for 3+ days. They have completed wiring diagnostics and determined that the brake light wiring harness is getting water into the wiring causing a short and blowing the #49 fuse under the hood that also operates the transmission cvt/tcm. Their solution was to replace the wiring harness. This was completed last week. It rained again the last couple days off and on. The fuse has blown again. This causes the vehicle to stall in the middle of the road. There is no advanced warning or messages that appear. The check engine light does not come on either. It is way too hot out for my new baby for the vehicle to stall and not be able to run. Cars begin honking and swerving around my vehicle. The vehicle has to be pushed out of the road. Fuse after fuse has been replaced. New light bulbs. New wiring harness and still the same outcome. Please help.

Failure Date: 01/11/2022

The car was parked over night and it was raining that night. The next day I went to move the car, started & warning lights went on. The windshield wiper water trough got clogged due to tree leafs falling in & the water overflow & entered the car by the air vent in to the car floor the 360-deg. Camera system module under the carpet, under the front passenger seat. It drowned in rain water. Causing the car computers to mel function. Drove it to a mechanic & that is when he told me that I need to replace the camera module & the air bag module. I was not able to go faster then 15 or 20 mph in the hway & lost my left & right signal flashers. 1) car mfg should put a leaf filter screen in the trough. 2) never put electronic computer under a carping. Mfg are aware that water can go there. And it’s a water trap.

8 Electrical System problem of the 2015 Nissan Versa Note

Failure Date: 10/25/2021

I was driving in stop abs ho traffic and the car cut off out if no where. The car jerks when you drive it and stalls. It seems like it requires a lot of work to accelerate and the rpm fluctuates between 2&3 when keeping a steady pace. The care bucks while you are driving. I just bought this car so these issues are alarming to me. It also looks as if the airbag on the top left might be exposed.

My cvt transmission finally went out. I had no clue as they were fixing and servicing this car. I call Nissan affairs dept as I had to pay $5050. 00 to replace it out of my pocket! Nissan states out of warranty 5 months ago!!. I inquired to why I was never contacted about transmission issues and problems or the opportunity to be included in the civil action with this vehicle. They claimed they had the old owners information which is a lie as I have received prior documentation for warranty notifications in my name! excuse after excuse to not help me. That got me good with the 5050. 00 for an ongoing issue for this vehicle. Nissan does not help at all!.

13 Electrical System problem of the 2014 Nissan Versa Note

Failure Date: 11/17/2020

Never had issues until now but I've been randomly having issues with my power steering locking up on me. It's a real dangerous safety hazard because one minute it's normal and drivable. Then I may get back in the car and it's locking up again. I don't have a regular power steering pump,because my car runs off electric power steering. I just really need help figuring out the source of this issue.

15 Electrical System problem of the 2015 Nissan Versa Note

Failure Date: 07/11/2020

Car floors--right, left, front and rear were mysteriously flooded with a substantial amount of water. Vehicle had been parked in flat driveway, all windows shut, and upon driving a couple blocks from home and pulling to a stop sign on a downward sloping street, water rushed forward on the floor of the car. Car was last driven 2 weeks prior to get inspected and subsequently there had been a few days with heavy rains. Where the water came in I don't know. Used shop-vac to suck out tons of water but moisture still remains on floors when pressed with paper towels. Also, different lights were lit on dash when I put the air on while parked to help dry out carpet--the abs and the car skidding lights. Makes me suspect electrical system was affected by water also. Will call mechanic and insurance company first thing tomorrow (Monday).
