Expert Answers about Nissan Versa


  • Recommended Trunk Mount Bike Rack for 2013 Nissan Versa with Spoiler
  • The trunk mount bike rack I recommend for a 2013 Nissan Versa is the Yakima HangOut 2 Bike Rack part # Y02637 which will be a great option even for models with a rear spoiler. This is a really nice entry level rack that works well. I have attached some notes from the manufacturer below to ensure proper use 251 - Place the upper strap hooks at the top edge of trunk, hatch lid, or rear door. 253 - Outer/lower support frame rests on the lower portion of the license plate or well. When bikes...

  • How to Carry 3 Bikes on a 2011 Nissan Versa Hatchback
  • I have a solution that will allow you to carry 3 bikes on your 2011 Nissan Versa hatchback but not with a trailer hitch. It isn't the weight of the bikes and rack that is the issue with Class I hitches. It is the distance the third or more bikes would be from the hitch receiver. That distance puts a lot of leverage on the hitch receiver; like when a lug nut is easier to loosen the longer the handle is on the wrench. To carry 3 bikes on your Versa I recommend a trunk mount bike rack. I...

  • Trailer Wiring Recommendation for a 2015 Nissan Versa Note
  • I have a solution for you, but the # HM11143704 only fits the sedan models of the 2015 Nissan Versa. What you have is the 2015 Nissan Versa Note so you would instead need the # 118582 which has the square connectors you described.

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2013 Nissan Versa w/ Rear Spoiler
  • According to Thule, their trunk mount bike racks would fit a 4 or 5 door Versa that's equipped with a spoiler, as long as it's a factory and not an aftermarket installed spoiler. The Thule Passage, part # TH910XT would be a fine choice. The rack has enough arch on it that it will completely span the rear edge of the deck lid and clear the spoiler just fine. Even though the rack is reasonably priced, it's still a high quality rack that's highly rated by our customers as you can see in the...

  • Parts Needed To Tow A Trailer With A 2017 Nissan Versa
  • I do have the parts that you will need to tow a trailer with your 2017 Nissan Versa but there is not a listed towing capacity because it is not recommend by the manufacturer to tow a trailer with this vehicle. Therefore, if you choose to do so anyway then you will need to proceed at your own risk. Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11256 Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56400 Curt Drawbar part # C45520 Curt Class I and II Pin and Clip part # F-4 1-7/8" Hitch Ball part # C40001

  • Replacement Wheel Tray, Bolt and Strap for Thule DoubleTrack Bike Rack # TH990XT
  • The wheel tray is the part # 853-7481 that you referenced and then for the bolt you need the M6 X 60mm bolt. While these are not available, I believe you could make the M6 X 65 mm carriage bolt by Thule work # TH26DH. Then for the strap part # 753-3001.

  • Is Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1852 on Nissan Versa Compatible with Blue Ox Aventa LX Tow Bar
  • The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1852 referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 2016 Nissan Versa. This is a strong and durable kit that features hidden reinforcements, along with removable bracket arms, to provide a clean look when you aren't towing the vehicle. This base plate kit is indeed compatible with your Blue Ox Aventa LX model 7445 tow bar and the combination will work well. I have attached the written installation instructions that you can take a look at. In order...

  • Best Supplemental Braking System to Use for Flat-Towing Multiple Vehicles
  • I have just what you need! For a correct braking system for flat-towing vehicles, you need a supplemental braking system instead of a brake controller. This is because brake controllers are not designed to work with flat-tow vehicles. With that being said, the best supplemental braking system to use with multiple vehicles is the Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System - Proportional # HM39524. With this system, you will be able to transfer it between vehicles for an...

  • Recommended 3 Bike Carrier for 2 Adult and 1 Kids Bike for 1-1/4 Inch Hitch on 2018 Nissan Versa
  • For your 2018 Nissan Versa with 1-1/4 inch receiver, if you have a kids bike smaller than 20 inches, then I recommend the Thule Helium Aero 3-Bike Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting - Aluminum # TH9043. This carrier has integrated locks and has a measurement of 14-3/8 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the back of the upright mast, 11-1/4 inches to the lever at the base, and 4-1/2 inches to the locking knob. I recommend the Swagman Deluxe Bike Frame Adapter Bar for Women's,...

  • Bike Rack for Carrying 2 Bikes to Fit on a 2009 Nissan Versa Hatchback
  • A great 2-bike trunk mount rack is the Hollywood Racks Expedition # HRF6-2. This rack has adjustable arms to help keep bikes level and anti-sway cradles to prevent the bikes from coming into contact with each other or your 2009 Nissan Versa. Since one bike is a woman's bike you will want the Kuat Uber Adapter Bar # UB01 to keep it level. Another option to carry bikes on your Versa is with a hitch mounted bike rack like # S64650 with the Curt Class 1 Hitch # C18085. A hitch mounted rack...

  • Equipment Recommendations for Flat Towing 2020 Nissan Versa w/ Manual Transmission
  • If your 2020 Nissan Versa is a 4 door sedan that's not equipped with the factory fog light option, we do have a base plate kit that'll work for you. I'd recommend the Roadmaster # RM27FR base plate kit, which features removable draw bars for a clean look when the vehicle isn't being flat towed. For a tow bar, go with the Roadmaster Falcon All-Terrain, part # RM-522. The Falcon All Terrain won't bind up if the surface the motorhome and vehicle are sitting on isn't perfectly flat, which...

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack that is Easy to Load for a 2012 Nissan Versa Hatchback
  • It will be easiest to mount your 2 bikes on a trunk mount bike rack that holds 3 bikes because there is more space. But as far as having to lift up the bikes to load them I would not say that any one trunk mount option is going to be easier than the others. This is because the arms on all of them will be at approximately the same height once mounted on your 2012 Nissan Versa hatchback. I recommend the Saris Bones bike rack, part # SA801BL, because it's light weight, durable, and holds...

  • Bike Rack Recommendation for 2012 Nissan Versa
  • With a Class I hitch (which is all that is available for your 2012 Nissan Versa), you can carry 2 bikes due to the weight restrictions on a light hitch. The most bikes your '12 Versa hatchbacks can carry is 3, and that would be with a trunk-mounted bike rack. If you are looking for the best rack, the Thule OutWay # TH56BV is what you want. This is a 3-bike carrier with anti-sway cradles, pads to absorb road shock and no-sway cages to prevent your bikes from making contact with each other....

  • Does the Draw-Tite # 24798 Come with Everything Needed to Install on a 2012 Nissan Versa
  • I checked the install instructions and there is nothing that the Draw-Tite # 24798 you referenced does not include to allow it to be installed. Everything you need to install this hitch is included. For trailer wiring you would need the part # 118545. The hitch does not come with a ball mount. For a ball you would want part # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch ball or part # 19258 for a 2 inch ball.

  • Trunk Mount Bike Carrier for a 2008 Nissan Versa Hatchback with Spoiler at Top of Hatch
  • You can technically mount most trunk mount bike carriers on a 2008 Nissan Versa hatchback but that rear spoiler could be an issue. You don't want to put stress on that spoiler since it was not meant to support weight. I recommend the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top rack # HRF2 for 2 bikes or # HRF2-3 for 3 bikes. These racks have an additional upper arm piece that moves the top straps up and over that spoiler so no weight is put on it (since the spoiler is not meant to support weight). I...

  • 2-Bike Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2007 Nissan Versa Hatchback
  • There are quite a few 2-bike trunk mount bike racks that will fit your 2007 Nissan Versa hatjchback. I have included a link to them for you. The Saris Bones, # SA805BL, is a popular option. It is light weight and easy to use. For it to fit you will also need Hatch Huggers # SA3035. The Hatch Huggers allow for the proper fit of the rack to the top of the hatch to avoid putting too much stress on it which can occur with the regular hooks. I have included links to videos on the rack and Hatch...

  • Will Adding a Trailer Hitch to a Nissan Versa Void the Vehicle Warranty
  • The Nissan Versa is what is considered an economy car. As such it is smaller, gets better fuel economy, and weighs less than other vehicles. But, it was not designed to tow. This could be for any number of reasons such as, the engine was not designed for the strains of towing, or the frame such as it is cannot handle the stress of towing. But if you are carrying a bike rack in the trailer hitch the vehicle is capable of supporting a correct fit rack. With that being said you will have...

  • What Bolt Pattern Does a 15 Inch Trailer Wheel Have
  • We offer 15" diameter wheels in five different bolt patterns; 4 on 9.44" (uncommon), 5 on 4-1/2" (common), 5 on 4-3/4" (uncommon), 5 on 5" (semi-common), and 6 on 5-1/2" (common). In order to determine which bolt pattern you need, you will need to measure the wheels you have now using the attached photo. If you have the 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern which is the most common then I recommend the Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel part # AM20422. If you have a different bolt pattern please just...
