Buying a used 2020 Nissan Versa? Check these 2 recalls first
The 2020 Versa has 2 recalls in this group, covering a fuel tank that may leak and cause fire, and turn signal bulbs that may crack. The fuel tank issue is the standout recall concern; bulb condition and operation are a more routine inspection item. Its 64 NHTSA owner complaints are unverified reports, with power train and forward collision avoidance at 16 each, followed by unknown or other and engine at 14 each. Those categories do not establish causes.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Obtain fuel tank recall repair documentation.
- Verify turn signal bulb recall completion and operation.
- Ask about transmission issues, engine faults, and collision-avoidance warnings.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Nissan dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
