2024 Nissan Versa

My 2024 Nissan Versa has acceleration problems. In less than 24 hours of having the car, when driving and without warning, the power of the vehicle began to decline while I was driving in traffic. It didn't matter how hard I pressed the acceleration the car would continue to power down. This caused cars to honk and swerve to avoid crashing in the back of me. It took many pumps to the accelerator to get the car to power to the speed of traffic again. The car also powers down to nothing intermittently if I am stopped at a red light on in rush hour traffic. Again, I am having to press the accelerator numerous times to get the car to work and with that, there is a jerking feel to it. Also within 24 hours, a service symbol appeared on the dash while driving and then went away within 30mins of driving. I took the vehicle back to the Nissan Dealership I purchased it from and they claim they did not find anything wrong.

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

I was at a stop light and it changed to green. I accidentally stalled the car. I had just picked up the car the day before and had driven manual for many years, but was getting used to the clutch. I immediately restarted the car and started in first gear. The car had lost a lot of power. I then discovered after trying to reach the speed limit of 50, the car was in limp mode. I pulled over and turned the car off for some time before restarting it. After the restart, the car engine power was back to normal. The car has about 120 miles on it and I am seeing many others have reported this issue for the same vehicle make, year, and model. This is very unsafe, especially if entering a highway. There were no lights on or indication advising the car was in limp mode during this event.

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)

2024 Nissan Versa Model S Manual, 4700 miles. 2 times I stalled engine while entering on ramp to freeway. Restarted engine, engine then went into limp mode. Top speed about 20 miles per hour. I then drove to side of Freeway turn engine off and then restarted engine and it corrected problem. Took vehicle to Nissan Dealership wasn't aware the problem and unable to reproduce complaint.

If vehicle stalls (manual transmission), severe power loss is experienced. It appears that vehicle goes into limp mode if it stalls. Has happened on several occasions. This creates a dangerous situation as it is not possible to move quickly enough to merge, proceed through an intersection, or maintain an adequate speed on the highway.

This 2024 Nissan Versa is a manual transmission purchased new in March 2024. On (3) separate incidents, there was a loss of power after stalling the engine and restarting the vehicle. Incident 1 (5/27/24) - The hill assist failed to disengage causing the vehicle to stall. When I re-started and pulled into traffic, I was unable to gain speed. Downshifting did not solve the problem. The vehicle was operating on lower power and no matter what gear I put it in, it would not speed up. I was not able to reach highway speeds in a timely fashion. It took several minutes to get to the correct speed. (approx. 5-10 mins) Incident 2 (6/13/24) Stalled in a parking garage in 2nd gear. Once I restarted the engine, there was very little power. I was not able to gain speed to the speed limit. Incident 3 (6/26/24) Stalled on a hill again when the hill assist did not disengage fully. Once restarted, there was very little power and I was unable to gain speed. In all 3 incidents, pulling over, shutting off the vehicle, opening the door and closing and allowing the vehicle to rest reset solved the issue. Our safety was put at risk as we were unable to speed up to acceptable levels after stalling and pulling into traffic. Stalling the vehicle happens from time to time but it doesn't always result in loss of power after restart. No warning lights, no audibles occurred. Vehicle will be scheduled for safety check with Nissan. I suspect this might be an electronics/computer malfunction rather than mechanical issue.
