Browse expert reviews and compare info on the Versa 1.8 SL in ourMedia Platforms Design TeamMuch like an impertinent but lovable puppy, the little Versa continues to both please and frustrate. There’s an undeniable charm to the car’s appearance. But—aye, there’s the inevitable “but”—there’s that passenger airbag cover that just doesn’t fit. In our last entry we mentioned that we’d have the dealer take a look at that airbag cover, while checking into the “Service Engine Soon” warning light. Well, the dealer says there’s no fix for the cover, yet. And the engine warning light? The engine computer logged an exhaust leak. But the technicians could find none and erased the fault. The light is back on again, so we’re headed back to the dealer.> style=“background-color:#000000; color:#ffffff; padding:2px; padding-right:5px;">Drivers NotebookData So Far valign=“top” style=“padding:2px; padding-right:5px; font-size:10pt;">
- This li’l squirt has way more usable and comfortable interior space than many larger, more expensive sedans. * Roof-mounted antenna or not, radio reception is hit-or-miss, and the radio itself annoys by not activating immediately when switched on. Don’t even ask about Nissan’s “A-B-C” preset system.
