2024 Nissan Versa Complaints

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.

NEW 2024 Versa S 5 speed purchased in Aug 2024 from Jim Click Nissan Dealership in Tucson, AZ. I brought it in to Nissan dealership 2 months later 4200 mi, for complaints of surging, fluctuating fan speeds with air conditioning on high & to check alternator. They couldn’t reproduce problem.

Nissan Dealership denies alternator or ac fan problems and no action taken despite 3 service visits/complaints. On [XXX] I attempted to accelerate out of the dealership parking lot. With no warning signs or check engine light, car had power loss and unable to accelerate: RPMs would rev to 3500 in gears 1-3 but car would only reach 35 mph max with full throttle. In 4th gear, max throttle, engine RPM’s would not exceed 2250 RPM’s. I continued through 4 miles of local street traffic to reach home, including an anxious moment making a left turn at traffic light na...

I purchased my NEW 2024 Versa S 5 speed on [XXX] from Jim Click Nissan Dealership in Tucson, AZ. I brought it in to Nissan dealership 2 months later [XXX], 4200 mi, for complaints of surging, fluctuating fan speeds with air conditioning on high. They claim they couldn’t reproduce problem. It continues to persist to this day as I write this on 4/20/25. I checked the alternator myself with multimeter on 4/12/25 & it revealed ACV ripple of 29-30 volts! Battery at rest 12.7 dcv, battery at idle 13.8 dcv, battery 13.9 dcv under load, and repeatedly producing same values on morning of [XXX], just minutes before bringing car in to Jim Click service appointment for follow up of fan fluctuations & request for alternator check up. However these data results conflict with Jim Click Nissan Dealership diagnosis on 4/18/25 service visit when they stated and documented that the charging system tests all passed & alternator is fine, and witnessed no a/c fan fluctuation. Thus no repairs done, and...
