Buying a used Nissan Versa in Canada

On a CVT car, compare the service records with the owner's manual schedule. On a 2023 or 2024, ask for proof that recall 2024-129 was done; on a 2021, check 2021-392.

The Car Guide lists 3 years or 60,000 km basic and 5 years or 100,000 km powertrain coverage for the 2025 Versa; have a Nissan dealer confirm by VIN any coverage left. Nissan Certified Pre-Owned (up to 6 years old, under 120,000 km) extends powertrain coverage to 6 years or 120,000 km; Certified Select (7 to 8 years, under 160,000 km) adds 6 months or 10,000 km.
