Two tone interior by pf_flyer HOST

When we took our test drive, the wife remarked that she thought it was unusual that the black interior was only black up to the level of the windows. Above that level everything is that light beige. I thought it was "different" but it really works visually, creating a feeling of more room. There's plenty of actual headroom, but if the headliner was black to match the seats, the space might feel more closed in.

I love that feeling... maybe I'm just odd, but I made my other vehicle like that on the inside and I loved it! It was like driving around in my own private cave... surely there must be more like that because otherwise people wouldn't tint their windows so dark... right??

Anyone used scotch guard themselves on their Versa? I have the S sedan and the material is a little different but I want something to protect it.. any advice on brands or types? Or what to do or not to do? Thanks.

I haven't tried this on a Versa but for many years I've used 3M Scotchgard spray on all my cars with cloth interiors and it's worked well--no staining, seems to help keep the fabric clean or easy to clean up.
 
When you spray it, be sure to follow directions on the can and cover any other interior bits like the console.

Versa Steering Wheel Finish Proglem by islander47591

I purchased my Versa in August, 2006. It currently has 24,000 miles. There have been several problems through the months, but this one has me very puzzled. The finish is coming off of the top of the steering wheel. The dealer is telling me that the interior trim warranty is only for 12,000 miles. I have had cars that were 7-8 years old that did not have the finish coming off of the steering wheel. Is anyone else having this problem?

But so far no sign of anything that looks like "finish" coming off any of the interior surfaces.
 
Does it look like something peeling off? Maybe take a pic and add it to a post so we can see what you're seeing.

I cannot get a good picture of it, but I will try to describe it to you. The steering wheel is shiny black all the way around with kind of a slight nobby finish on it. At the very top of the steering wheel, the shiney, nobby finish is coming off. The place is now about 3 inches long and about 1/4 of the diameter around. It appears to be worsening. I checked with the dealership, and they told me it is no longer under warranty since this car has more than 12,000 miles. They say the interior warranty is only for 12,000 miles. I will never buy another Nissan.
 
All you other Versa owners better start watching the top of the steering wheel. Maybe you can catch it before 12,000 miles.

That seems very odd that the "interior warranty" is only 12,000 miles. I am used to adjustments on a car, and wear items like brake pads, being warranted for only 12,000 miles or 1 year. But interior items? They should be covered for the duration of the bumper-to-bumper warranty. Did you read the warranty book with the car to see what it says?
 
If that is really how the Nissan warranty works, I will have to rethink whether the Versa stays on my "consider" list.

A couple questions...
 
Are you in the US?
 
Do you rest your hand up there, causing it to rub off, or do you think it is due to sunlight UV rays coming through the windows?
 
I have the beige interior (US) and my wheel isn't really "shiny". I wonder if they changed it with later manufactures. Mine was built 5/07
