Is 136 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2013 and 2026, roughly 11 a year, which is more than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.

How does it compare with other years? The 2014 has 136 complaints on file, more than the 2015 (86). That is the most of the 4 model years of the Nissan Versa Note we cover. Older model years have had longer to collect complaints.
