That would be like saying, 'como' and expecting people to understand you were asking: ¿Cómo están? = How are you? - FELIZ77, JUL 3, 2010

Context , context , context: "no pasó" could mean different things. " Didn't happen", "Didn't pass through", "Didn't come to be"...

So, whether it can be used as you state, depend on just what was said.

I wonder if you are thinking of the commonly used (in Spain) idiomatic phrase "no pasa nada" loosely meaning no problem/don´t worry?

Gekkosan is right, but "No pasó" can not be used to say, "No pasó nada." In this case, "No pasó" is incomplete.

I think just "no paso" means "no way"
