Known issues on the 2018 Versa. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the mechanical key ignition system: weight on the key ring, road conditions, or a jarring event can shift the switch out of the run position and into accessory, stalling the engine without warning and raising the risk of a crash. The second covers the back-up camera system: the display settings can be adjusted so the rear-view image no longer shows, and the system holds that setting the next time the vehicle is placed in reverse, increasing the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 55 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
Whether you're chasing an intermittent stall from the ignition switch or verifying the back-up camera display, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and correct specification for your specific 2018 Versa.
