| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: At 6:30 am, i was driving, trying to defrost the windows with the defroster at a light and the car started a jerking motion and overheated. i parked the car at family member's residence. i took the car to the dealer and was told that the engine needed to be replaced; however, the replacement was covered under the warranty. nissan needed to be contacted and they were. my case was in the warranty department for 3.5 weeks, mean while i was without transportation i wasn't approved to have a vehicle supplied by nissan. nissan made a decision not to replace the engine in my 4 year old car that received regular maintenance; but to replace the cylinder head gaskets (which from what i am told is a temporary fix). this is because i am at 58,000 miles and my warranty is up at 60,000 miles. beware of nissan and their warranties. *jb |
