Has anyone had this problem......Twice my car has been hard to start, the engine light has come on and the engine went into safe mode. Safe mode did not allow me to drive faster than 20 KM/hour.
 
The car has been tested with all the equipment at the dealership and tests fine. Yet, something is definintely wrong. I've had the car for 3 months. First incident happened at the 2 month mark. The car has 6500 km on it.

my car has never gone into safe mode, but when we had our cold snap that came through the southwest, I found the car really didn't want to start in 28 degree weather, It started but not as easy as before.

Uh-oh. I don't like the sound of that. It's been below zero F every morning where I live for the past few weeks. If it has trouble starting at 28 degrees, how about -15? The Versa has moved up high on my next-car list due to its great showing on the IIHS crash tests, but I'll have to rethink that if it has trouble getting going in temperatures I see six months out of the year.

Hi Everyone. We're looking to buy a Versa tonight for our 18 year old daughter. Would you recommend this car for an 18 year old? What are the main things we need to know/questions to ask and finally how do we get a great deal? What can we expect to pay below sticker? Thanks!

I'd say its a great car for a young person. It has good fuel economy (college students dont have money), its easy to drive, has more than enough space and the price is right. If you are buying tonight, you should check edmunds for the invoice price, because thats the price I got from my dealer. These cars arent selling as much as they used to in my part (NYC) so you shouldnt have a problem getting a good price. If you get the S - power package and ABS are a must. But your daughter might like the SL better (mostly due to the AUX jack for MP3 players). Also, try to get the low financing (.7APR for up to 36months). Hope that helped!

A reporter from a large national newspaper is looking to speak to anyone who has purchased a small car in the past couple of months. If you purchased this car as an additional car for the family versus a replacement, please note that as well. Please provide your daytime contact info to ctalatiedmunds.com no later than Thursday, May 10, 2007.

Does anyone know if this CAM in the engine is belt driven, chain, or gears? If it is belt driven, would it be possible and not too painful to replace it with a chain? Thanks

We ended up getting her the Versa and then *19* days later it was totalled. 100% the other person's fault so we turned around and got her as close to the identical car as we could. So far, so good. She loves it, we love it. She has the dark blue one

The Versa has a timing chain. Lots of cars have timing belts. They work fine if you change them when called for. It would not be cost effective to change a belt to a chain (running in oil etc.)
