2018 NISSAN VERSA
This model year
What the record shows
The 2018 Nissan Versa is a compact car, and the 12th model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 2007 to 2025.
The EPA rated three configurations: a single 1.6-litre four-cylinder engine, front-wheel drive only, three transmissions and running on regular gasoline.
Combined fuel economy ranges from 29 to 34 mpg depending on which one you have.
NHTSA's best overall crash rating for this model year is 4 out of five stars.
The federal record holds 55 owner complaints, 2 safety recalls and 85 service bulletins for it.
Counts are reports, not rates. A complaint is something an owner chose to file; it is unverified and unadjusted for how many of these cars were sold, so the useful comparison is against other model years of the same car. Recalls and investigations carry more weight because a manufacturer or regulator acted on them.
Reading this report
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
