Choosing 2016 Nissan Versa Tires

Other than getting the proper tire size, there are a couple of other factors to consider when buying Nissan Versa tires like where and how you drive, and what tire brand you trust most. When evaluating your driving conditions, think about where you live (countryside vs. city vs. mountains) and the kind of unexpected weather you're likely to experience. It's not uncommon for drivers in states that experience all four seasons to buy more than one set of tires. one for summer and one for winter. Other drivers prefer the convenience of all-season tires. They make one trip to the tire shop and they're pretty much ready for rain, light snow, or sun!

Driving style is next on the list to think about when buying tires. If you're a diehard off-roader, you have very different tire needs than a highway commuter who doesn't leave the paved path. Talk to a tire technician at Firestone Complete Auto Care for help choosing the best tire for you, or start shopping for Nissan Versa tires online.

2016 Nissan Versa Tire Questions

  • Why check Nissan tire inflation? Even a tiny decrease in tire pressure could impact your safety and fuel economy. Maintaining proper tire pressure can help increase fuel economy, improve braking time, and boost tire lifespan.
  • What do the numbers on my Nissan Versa tires mean? The numbers on your tire sidewall give you information about tire speed rating, traction, treadwear, tire size, and load carrying capacity. Chat with a tire technician to learn how to read the numbers on your Nissan tires!
  • Can I check the tread depth on my Nissan tires at home? Stay on top of your tire tread depth to help avoid a dangerous drive. You can check tread depth with a penny. Hold the penny so that Abraham Lincoln is facing you, then place your penny into a tread groove upside down. If you can see the top of Abe’s head, your tread is shallow and it might be time for new Nissan Versa tires. Grab a penny. Hold the so that Abe Lincon's head is facing you and his hair is pointing toward the ground. Then, place the penny into a tread groove. If you can see the top of Abe’s head, your tread is shallow and it might be time for new Nissan Versa tires.

Get Your 2016 Nissan Versa Brakes Fixed

You might have a strong and reliable engine in your Nissan  Versa. But if you can't stop it, then it's scrap metal. If you’re experiencing squeaky brakes or a loss of braking power, don’t wait!

Your Versa could shake when you brake due to worn brake pads or rotors, warped rotors, loose or worn suspension components, or faulty brake calipers. You can always schedule a free brake inspection at the first sign of strange brake behavior.
  • What is the average lifespan of Versa brake pads? Brake pads typically last about 30,000 to 40,000 miles. However, driving conditions can affect this range. Sticking to highway driving and braking smoothly can help extend the life of your brake pads, while towing heavy loads or frequently riding your brakes can shorten it.
  • Does brake fluid leak when the car is off? Your Versa brake system is a closed hydraulic system, so a brake fluid leak likely means you have an issue in your brake system. Over time, brake components can wear out or get damaged, causing a brake fluid leak.

Questions About 2016 Nissan Versa

  • What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a Versa? Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your Versa’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.
  • How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Versa? Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Versa. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Versa.

Wheel Alignment for 2016 Nissan Versa

Answers to Nissan Versa Alignment Questions

  • How often does your Versa need a wheel alignment? Typically, your alignment should be checked every 6,000 miles or 6 months, whichever comes first. Double-check your Versa owner’s manual for Nissan's exact recommended schedule.
  • Do you need to get your Versa wheels aligned?  It’s not mandatory to get an alignment after installing new tires on your Versa, but it can be a smart decision! Proper alignment from the jump can help improve handling, fuel efficiency, and tire wear.

2016 Nissan Versa Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Versa? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. It’s just your Versa firing up its circuits. The light should turn off in a bit, but come see us if it doesn't.
  • Why is my Nissan Versa making engine noise? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Nissan Versa. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low oil. A high-pitched whistle could signal an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding might be a sign of brake problems rather than engine issues.
  • What could damage a Nissan engine? Certain driving habits can hurt your engine. These habits include driving on an empty fuel tank, revving your engine while the vehicle is in Park, or slamming the gas pedal while the engine is still cold. Steer clear of these habits to help protect engine performance and efficiency.

Frequently Asked Nissan Versa Tire Repair Questions

  • Can I drive my Nissan on a flat tire? Driving on a flat tire is not a good idea. Your Versa engine will keep running with a flat tire, but you could damage your wheel by continuing to drive on a flat.
  • Can I use an emergency/temporary sealant to fix my Nissan's flat tire? Fast fixes are a mixed blessing. They’ll help you get your Nissan Versa to Firestone Complete Auto Care, but don’t count on them to keep you on the road for very long. Using a temporary sealant may also void a Bridgestone or Firestone tire warranty.
  • What can cause Versa tires to keep losing air?  If your Versa tires are always losing air, you may have a puncture, damaged wheel, or leaking valve stem.

Answers to Your Nissan Versa Car Battery Questions

Or, you may have been leaving your car doors ajar and the cabin light at night. Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your favorite Firestone Complete Auto Care and get a handle on your car battery’s health.
  • What is the average lifespan of a car battery?  A car battery normally lasts three to five years, but this number can vary based on battery type, your driving habits, and battery maintenance.
  • What is the white, crusty stuff around my Versa’s battery post?  A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can cause a white, crusty buildup to form on the terminals of your Versa car battery. This buildup — known as corrosion — can impede the flow of electricity and cause a range of issues, from poor performance to premature battery failure.

2016 Nissan Versa Oil Change Service

Nissan recommends having your 2016 Nissan Versa’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Outside of Nissan-recommended oil change intervals, your Versa may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Nissan recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances.

Whether you need high mileage oil, synthetic oil, or conventional oil, you'll find the right 2016 Nissan Versa motor oil at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Consult Nissan's recommendations to select the right  2016 Versa oil and talk with a teammate to learn more about our oil options: Quaker State® Advanced Durability™ conventional oil, Pennzoil® High Mileage Vehicle® motor oil, Pennzoil Platinum® Full Synthetic motor oil with PurePlus™ Technology, and Shell Rotella® heavy-duty engine oil. During your oil change service, an auto technician will change your Versa’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, inspect all of your other filters, top-off important fluids, and perform a free inspection on the rest of your vehicle. Get professional engine care by making an oil change appointment for your Versa today.

2016 Nissan Versa Oil Change Questions

  • Why is the oil light on in my Nissan Versa?  Your Nissan Versa oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • How hard is it to change Nissan Versa oil at home?  Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Nissan Versa spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke?  You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or old cylinder walls.

2016 Nissan Versa Engine Tune-Ups & Maintenance

Routine engine tune-ups can bring power back to your Versa. Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Nissan Versa engine tune-up services. One option is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. The standard Firestone Tune-Up includes new spark plugs (and installation!), a thorough inspection of engine components, and a lifetime parts warranty*. The second service focuses on your Versa's filters, specifically replacing the air filter and fuel filter. The third tune-up option is a fuel system cleaning service, which is a three-step process that removes varnish, dirt, and carbon deposits on your Versa's fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. This goes a long way in boosting your fuel system’s overall performance. Consider this when choosing a tune-up service for your Versa: your vehicle’s maintenance record and mileage can determine which service is best. Chat with a Firestone technician before you jump into a specific service to ensure your engine tune-up money is well-spent.

*Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care teammate for full terms and conditions on warranties.

Common Engine Tune-Up Q&A for 2016 Nissan Versa

  • When should Nissan Versa spark plugs be replaced?  Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Spark plugs are small but mighty. The spark of electricity that the plug emits across a small gap creates the ignition for the combustion needed to start your car. Without that spark, your car won't start.
  • What does a puddle underneath my Nissan Versa mean? Puddles could indicate that your vehicle is leaking coolant, oil, or brake fluid. Ignoring these leaks can lead to permanent engine damage, so address these symptoms ASAP with a tune-up service.
  • How often should I clean my Nissan Versa fuel injectors? The frequency at which car fuel injectors should be cleaned can vary depending on several factors, including the type of fuel used and the driving conditions. Some manufacturers generally recommend a fuel system cleaning as part of your general car maintenance, or as needed based on symptoms of poor fuel system performance.

2016 Versa Nissan Steering & Suspension Services

When you first drove your 2016 Nissan Versa, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Versa bounces, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2016 Nissan Versa in for steering and suspension repairs. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Versa suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost.

2016 Nissan Versa Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Why is my Nissan Versa bouncing so much?  If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Versa to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my Versa to dip forward when I apply the brakes?  The forward dip in the front end of your Versa when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Versa's steering and suspension?  Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.

A/C Service for Your 2016 Nissan Versa

Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your 2016 Nissan Versa A/C problems. During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2016 Nissan Versa A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure.

While your 2016 Nissan Versa’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll use Nissan’s specifications to evacuate the system. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant.

Frequently Asked Questions for 2016 Nissan Versa A/C Systems

  • Why is my Versa A/C blowing hot air?  An A/C blowing hot air has several possible root causes. There could be an issue with your compressor clutch, a blown fuse, a leak, or a clog in the expansion valve.
  • What causes A/C system leaks?  Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Versa’s A/C system naturally degrade. Moisture can get into the system and cause a malfunction, or parts can simply wear out so that your system no longer seals properly.
  • Why does my Versa’s A/C only work when the car is moving?  If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Versa’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.

2016 Nissan Versa Transmission Service & Repairs

The transmission delivers power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive on your terms. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, a tiny transmission issue can take a major toll on your car’s performance. 2016 Nissan Versa transmission issues could include shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. If you don’t pay attention to Nissan Versa transmission trouble you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Versa at all. Our technicians are trained to service 2016  Nissan Versa transmission systems according to vehicle manufacturer recommendations. Schedule an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign of transmission problems to help diagnose, treat, and prevent major transmission issues.

2016 Nissan Versa Transmission Questions & Answers

  • Does my Versa's transmission fluid need to be inspected?  Maintaining your Nissan Versa transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Nissan. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Nissan Versa?  Yes. Nissan Versa transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
  • Can I still drive my Nissan Versa if it has a transmission fluid leak?  You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Versa to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.

Vehicle Inspection for 2016 Nissan Versa

Every service performed at Firestone Complete Auto Care includes a multi-point Courtesy Check. The technician will begin by testing your Nissan Versa's battery to find out how much charge is remaining on it. The check will continue with a visual inspection of your Nissan Versa's filters, lights, wiper blades, alignment, tires, hoses, belts and fluid levels.

Every service performed at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care will include a Courtesy Check, but we can also dig deeper and perform a Complete Vehicle Inspection on your 2016 Nissan Versa if you prefer. During a Complete Vehicle Inspection, we’ll visually check everything that’s on the list for a Courtesy Check. Additionally, we’ll perform a thorough manual inspection of your exhaust system, steering and suspension, and brakes. The goal of this type of inspection is to unearth significant issues that might wreak havoc on your 2016 Nissan Versa if left unaddressed.

In some cities or states, you may be able to complete your vehicle’s safety tests or state inspection at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care. Inspections are performed on a state-by-state basis and requirements vary.

2016 Nissan Versa Vehicle Inspection Q and A

  • When does my Nissan Versa need an inspection? If you’ve noticed something that doesn’t feel quite right in your car lately, a Courtesy Check could give you peace of mind. We can help you get to the bottom of strange engine noises, a jerky steering wheel, or an engine that's hard to start.
  • Can you fix my 2016 Nissan Versa so it will pass a state inspection test? Did your vehicle fail a recent state inspection test? We can help. Come in for a checkup and we’ll diagnose the issue.
  • When’s the best time to have a complete vehicle inspection performed on my Nissan Versa?  The best time to get a complete vehicle inspection for your Nissan Versa is before going on a road trip for the peace of mind. Another great time is when something abnormal occurs, and you can't pinpoint the issue. You might notice new dashboard lights, hear strange noises from under the hood, or your steering wheel doesn't feel like it once did.

Radiator Service & Repair for 2016 Nissan Versa

Regular, proactive service on the radiator in your 2016 Nissan Versa is essential for long-term engine health. Nissan recommends that you replace coolant (also called antifreeze) at certain intervals, but it’s a good idea to keep your eyes open for any indication that your radiator is failing. You might be driving around (or about to be stranded) with a failing radiator if you notice leaking coolant, overheating, or an illuminated low coolant dashboard light.

At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we start by performing a thorough inspection of your Nissan Versa cooling system. We then do a machine-powered radiator exchange, replenish flushed chemicals, sealants, and lubricants, and then pressure check for leaks. If you’re about to lose your cool over a too-hot engine, rest assured that we’ll take excellent care of your 2016 Nissan Versa at Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2016 Nissan Versa Radiator Q&A

  • What does the coolant light on my Nissan dashboard mean?  Your engine might be about to overheat. If your low coolant light is on, pull over in a safe area and wait for your engine temperature to go down. Once it’s safe to do so, bring your car to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care to have the coolant system inspected.
  • Why is my Versa overheating?  Low coolant, a damaged cooling fan, a faulty water pump, a malfunctioning thermostat, or a clogged radiator could all cause your Nissan Versa engine to overheat.
  • What can cause a Versa radiator to make boiling or rumbling sounds? There could be air pockets in your Versa’s cooling system. You might also have a clogged radiator or faulty radiator cap (this last one is an easy fix!).
