Nissan
Versa

vehicle change to limp mode randomly. i need to stop turn all off wait 1 minute to restables the normal power on engine.

The issue that I am experiencing has been intermittent, however it seems to be a safety concern that Nissan is not taking seriously. As I am driving at any speed with no cars around me the car collision icon will come on and flash as well as the front portion of the car in the advanced driver assistant system will flash yellow. This has happened on more than one occasion, but will always go away eventually. I believe that my safety is at risk because what if I was driving with my cruise control on and this occurred, would it slam on my brakes causing an accident? It has not been duplicated by the dealership that I have taken my car to however I have been able to record it several times when it occurred. There are no other warning lights that come up when this occurs, however I have codes that show that some of my radar sensors are not functioning properly. Nissan has not done anything about this issue and has dismissed it as a common problem with the vehicle when it clearly is a safety issue.

The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Versa. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. In addition, the contact stated that the vehicle seemed sluggish, and the vehicle failed to accelerate above 30 MPH. The contact stated that several times, the vehicle was driven to the shoulder and the vehicle was turned off. The contact stated that when the vehicle was started, the vehicle was driven without further failure. The vehicle was taken to the dealer several times; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 1,300.

If the vehicle stalls when starting or depressing the clutch too fast, the vehicle will sometimes enter a low power (limp mode), where the driver can floor the accelerator and the car will barely accelerate. The absolutely max speed when this happens seems to be around 55 and it takes 30 seconds to reach this speed. Turning the car off and letting it sit for 15 seconds, and then restarting the car seems to fix the problem. This has happened to me 3 times over the past 2 years.

My 2022 Nissan Versa manual transmission: there have been times after starting the vehicle or after the vehicle has stalled and been restarted where the engine goes into a limp mode. That is, pressing on the accelerator will increase RPMS on the engine but there is very little torque generated to move the vehicle. This has created a risk of accident when trying to accelerate for a merge or other time sensitive maneuver. I took the vehicle to the dealer and found that the clutch was burned out. This was after 42k miles. The vehicle has a hill assist that will prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards when you take your foot off the break and before you engage the transmission. I believe the limp mode is tide to this problem. I later discovered that if you turn off the car and take the key out of the ignition, upon restart the problem goes away. This leads me to believe that it is a computer problem and the restart of the vehicle reboots the computer and corrects the problem. I asked the dealership about it and they said they were not aware of any recalls (which was not what I asked). There were no warning lamps or messages from the vehicle. The vehicle is available for inspection however, I do need to get it fixed so if NHTSA wants to look at it please let me know as soon as possible.

The arm rest that protrudes from the center console, sometimes momentarily interferes with steering control during turns due to obstructing arm movement. Also it frequently causes a minor elbow injury from hitting the arm rest when making a turn.

In 2023 from time to time if we accidnetly stalled out, the car went in to limp mode after we restarted it. We learned that if we took the key out and waited a couple minutes it would drive normally again. That change on [XXX] when I was in downtown Atlanta and it would not get out of limp mode for a long time. It was very scary and I had kids in the car with me. I was able to get it to the dealership that day but they said it was fine and insisted I had been in the wrong gear. I knew this was not the case so when it happened again [XXX] I took a video of it in limp mode and took it to Mike Rezi Nissan the next day. They said they could find nothing wrong with it and told me we’d hear from someone but we are still waiting. I discovered you have an investigation PE24007 open on this and would like to add us to the claim. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The contact stated the failure reoccurred and the vehicle was taken to a local dealer however, the cause of the failure could not be determined. The contact stated the failure recently reoccurred, and he was able to diagnose the vehicle with an ODB scanner and retrieved DTC code: P2615 (Failure with the Camshaft Position Signal Output Circuit Low Issue). The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and a case was opened. The failure mileage was approximately 19,000.
