About 2020 Nissan Versa Tires

Beyond the correct tire size, there are a couple of other factors to consider when buying Nissan Versa tires like which tire brands you like most and where you drive. When thinking about your driving conditions, consider where you live (mountains vs. city vs. countryside) and the kind of weather can catch you off-guard. (Watch out Tornado Alley!) Drivers in states that fully experience all four seasons often buy two sets 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!

Next, consider your driving style. 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.

We sell tires, but we also service them and care for all the around-the-wheel components. We're your tire shop and a complete service center for tire installation, maintenance, repair, rotation, and alignment! Shop 2020 Nissan Versa tires online and schedule an installation appointment.

2020 Nissan Versa Tire Questions

  • Why does Nissan tire inflation matter? The right tire pressure can make all the difference. Proper tire inflation helps increase fuel economy, improve braking time, and boost tire lifespan! Even a small change in tire pressure can impact your driving.
  • What do the numbers on my Nissan Versa tires mean? Your tire sidewall gives you information about load carrying capacity, speed rating, treadwear, traction, and tire size. Talk to one of our tire technicians to learn how to read the numbers on your tire!
  • How do I check the tread depth on my Nissan tires? 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.

2020 Nissan Versa Auto Repair Q&A

  • Do I need to follow Nissan's maintenance schedule? Don’t neglect scheduled maintenance. Sure, you could skip out on a few recommended maintenance services, but you may pay the price later. Bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care at recommended service intervals to address minor issues before they get out of hand and keep your car running newer, longer.
  • Should I bring my Nissan in even if I can't pinpoint the problem? No, we’re not talking about finding the best jams on the radio! You know your car best, and you’re the first person who will notice if something doesn’t feel right (like new smells, sights, or sounds coming from your car). If you sense that something is 'off,' stop in for a Courtesy Check to have these symptoms checked out ASAP. Early action could help you prevent Nissan Versa repairs.
  • Why do you recommend certain repairs for my Nissan? Talk to your technician. We'll never recommend a service or repair for your 2020 Nissan Versa that we don't think is necessary for your safety.

2020 Nissan Versa Brake Repair

Your Nissan Versa may be powered by a strong engine. 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! Safe driving and responsive brakes go hand in hand. What's more, waiting for things to figure themselves out can result in more damage to your brakes and your wallet. Go to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for 2020 Nissan Versa brake repairs. We offer many affordable brake repairs like brake pad/shoe replacement, brake rotor/drum machining, brake fluid exchange, and wheel cylinder and brake caliper installation.

Nissan Versa Brakes Questions

  • What is causing my Versa to shake when I brake? 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.
  • How long can I expect my Versa brake pads to last? Brake pads generally last between 30,000 and 40,000 miles. Your driving can affect how long your Versa brake pads last, though. For example, mainly driving on highways and gradually braking can help increase the lifespan of your brake pads, and carrying hefty loads or riding your brakes can shorten it.
  • Does brake fluid leak when the car is off? Your Versa brake system is a closed hydraulic system, which means that the brake fluid should not leak out of the system under normal circumstances. However, over time, the various components of the brake system can wear out or become damaged, which can cause brake fluid to leak out of the system.

When to Get Nissan Versa Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2020 Nissan Versa drivetrain components Your Nissan could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards.

Questions About 2020 Nissan Versa

  • What are the symptoms of a damaged Nissan drivetrain system? Your Nissan Versa drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.
  • Why is my Versa malfunction indicator light (MIL) on?  The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Versa can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.
  • How serious 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 2020 Nissan Versa

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Nissan Versa’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. During the service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as Nissan intended. Bring your 2020 Nissan Versa in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Nissan.

Answers to Nissan Versa Alignment Questions

  • What can knock my Nissan Versa out of alignment? When it’s safe to do so, avoid driving over potholes or hitting curbs. These road obstacles can wreak havoc on your wheel alignment, as can wear and tear from rough road conditions.
  • 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 likely not a requirement to get an alignment when you install new tires on your Versa, but it's a smart idea to do so anyway. An alignment can help ensure even tire wear, smooth handling, and better fuel efficiency.

Engine Repairs for Your 2020 Nissan Versa

If your 2020 Versa engine needs repairs, our technicians will make sure you understand what’s going on before they start working on your engine. We don't start working until we have your approval. If a repair can wait, we'll let you know. But if immediate repairs are necessary for your safety, we’ll make sure that's clear, too. We seek to give you all the info you need to make a smart decision about our services. Choose Firestone Complete Auto Care for Nissan Versa engine repairs and you can drive easy knowing that we use Nissan-approved parts and fluids — timing belt, motor oil seal, sensors, or other parts.

Questions About 2020 Nissan Versa Engines

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Versa? It's okay if your check engine light comes on when you first start your vehicle. This is a sign that your vehicle is testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Are Nissan Versa engine noises bad?  Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Nissan Versa engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.
  • What could damage my Nissan Versa engine?  Some driving habits are not so great for your engine. These include driving on a near-empty gas tank, flooring the gas pedal while the car is in Park, or accelerating too quickly, too soon. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.

Tire Repair for Your 2020 Nissan Versa

Firestone Complete Auto Care is here for you when your 2020 Nissan Versa needs flat tire repair or inspection. There’s a chance your tire could be plugged and patched (rather than replaced). Our technicians can inspect your tire and let you know if it is safe to repair. We’ll begin by taking a look at where the damage is, the type and extent of the tire damage, and how all of your tires are wearing.

If a repair on your 2020 Nissan Versa tire is feasible and safe, the repair process is actually fairly simple: (1) Remove the tire from the wheel for inspection and repair, (2) use a filler to close up the puncture (this is to keep moisture from getting in), and (3) re-seal the inside lining of your tire so that air won’t escape.

Frequently Asked Nissan Versa Tire Repair Questions

  • What happens if 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.
  • Will a temporary sealant fix my Nissan's flat tire? A temporary sealant may be able to help you get to a repair location safely. But temporary or emergency sealants could possibly damage TPMS sensors, and in some cases may even void the warranty on your Bridgestone or Firestone tires. If your tire needs extensive repair, sealant can add time and labor costs to the process.
  • Why do the tires on my Versa keep losing air? Tire punctures, damaged wheels, and leaking valve stems are possible reasons for your Versa tires continuously losing air.

Guide to 2020 Nissan Versa Scheduled Maintenance

There's no need to guess when it's time to get Versa maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 2020 Nissan Versa maintenance schedule! Nissan knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Versa perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2020 Nissan Versa problems.

2020 Nissan Versa Maintenance Questions

  • What should I do after hitting a pothole in my Nissan Versa?  Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
  • When does my Nissan Versa need high mileage oil?  If your Nissan Versa has ticked past 75,000 miles, consider switching to high mileage oil at your next oil change to give your engine what it needs to go another 75,000 (or more!). High mileage oil: make it a high priority!
  • Why are my Nissan dashboard lights on?  It's better to get them addressed as soon as possible. An illuminated dashboard light means something in your vehicle isn't functioning like it should. Letting problems linger can mean bad news for your Nissan Versa, so be sure to take your car in for service as soon as you notice an illuminated dashboard light.

Top Nissan VersaCar Battery Questions

  • Why won't my Nissan Versa battery stay charged?  A car battery that needs to be jump-started every time is as good as dead. It may be getting old. Or, you’ve been leaving the doors slightly open and the dome lights on during the night. Stop in for a free battery check at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.
  • What is the average lifespan of a car battery? The typical 12-volt car battery may last three to five years, depending on the type of battery, the driving conditions, and how well the battery is maintained.
  • Why is there white, flaky 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.

Oil Changes for 2020 Nissan Versa

Nissan recommends changing your 2020 Versa’s oil at regular intervals. No matter the mileage, your Versa may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, 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 terrain, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances.

Whether it’s synthetic, conventional, or a blend of both — your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right oil for your Nissan Versa. Talk with a teammate and consult your owner's manual before picking a motor oil. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, you can choose from the following oils: 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. In an oil change service, an auto technician will change your Versa’s oil, replace and recycle the old oil and filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, top-off essential 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.

2020 Nissan Versa Oil Change Questions

  • Why is my Nissan Versa oil light illuminated?  If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Nissan Versa oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Can I change my Nissan oil on my own?  First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also helps your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Nissan exhaust smoke gray or blue?  There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.

Engine Tune-Up Service for Your 2020 Nissan Versa

Routine engine tune-ups can bring power back to your Versa. Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care offers a range of engine tune-up services for your 2020 Nissan Versa. The first is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. This includes the installation of new spark plugs and a visual inspection of your engine’s components, plus a lifetime warranty on parts*. A second service option replaces the air and fuel filter in your Versa. Our third service is a thorough cleaning of the fuel system. During this type of tune-up, we use a three-step process to get rid of harmful varnish, dirt, and carbon deposit buildup in your Versa’s fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. This can improve your fuel system’s performance (and therefore, your engine’s 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. Ask one of our technicians what your vehicle needs, based on your driving habits and your car’s current condition.

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

Common Engine Tune-Up Q&A for 2020 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 do I do if I see a pool of liquid under my Nissan Versa? Puddles could indicate an oil leak, coolant leak, or brake fluid leak– all of which can critically hurt your engine. Have your engine inspected as soon as you spot a pool of liquid in your usual parking spot.
  • How frequently do the fuel injectors in my Nissan Versa need to be cleaned? The cleaning schedule for vehicle fuel injectors varies depending on your driving conditions and the type of fuel you use. Some manufacturers suggest cleaning your fuel system as part of routine maintenance, while others will recommend it on an as-needed basis if you’re experiencing poor performance. Reference your Nissan owner’s manual for exact guidelines.

2020 Versa Nissan Steering & Suspension Services

When you first bought your 2020 Nissan Versa, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Versa jolts, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2020 Nissan Versa in for steering and suspension repairs. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Versa suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost.

2020 Nissan Versa Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Why is my Nissan Versa bouncing excessively?  If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Versa goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my Versa front end dip forward when I brake?  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.
  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Nissan's suspension?  Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, nd also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.

Convenient & Local 2020 Nissan Versa A/C Service

Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your 2020 Nissan Versa A/C problems. During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2020 Nissan Versa’s A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test.

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2020 Nissan Versa, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Next, they will evacuate the system according to Nissan's recommendations. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant.

Frequently Asked Questions for 2020 Nissan Versa A/C Systems

  • Why is my Versa A/C blowing hot air? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
  • 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 vehicle have to be moving for my Versa’s A/C to work?  Damaged or worn components in your Versa’s electrical or air conditioning system can cause the A/C to only work when the car is moving. You may be dealing with low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.

2020 Nissan Versa Transmission Service

The transmission delivers power from the motor to your wheels so that you can drive at your desired speed. Because of the transmission’s responsibility to translate the right dose of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your Versa’s performance. 2020 Nissan Versa transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, the car shaking on the road, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. Let Nissan Versa transmission problems linger and your could suffer a loss in fuel efficiency or find that you can't drive your Versa at all. Our technicians know how to service your 2020 Versa up to Nissan-recommended standards. As soon as you suspect something’s wrong with your Versa’s transmission, book an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care to help keep your engine running at peak performance.

2020 Nissan Versa Transmission Q&A

  • How often does my Versa transmission fluid need to be checked?  Regularly checking and exchanging your 2020 Versa’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Nissan's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Nissan Versa? Yes, your Nissan Versa can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Versa ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
  • Is it okay to drive a Versa with a transmission fluid leak?  It’s not advisable to drive your Versa if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.

  • 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.

In fact, Nissan recommends replacing coolant/antifreeze at specific intervals, but you can also take note of any signs your radiator is going bad.

If you bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care, we start with a comprehensive inspection of your Nissan Versa’s 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 your 2020 Nissan Versa is in good hands at Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2020 Nissan Versa Radiator Q&A

  • What does an illuminated coolant temperature light mean for my Nissan?  f the coolant light illuminates on your dashboard, your engine could be overheating.
