He claims that not having a record with Nissan of oil changes could put you at risk of your warranty if something were to go wrong with your engine. Is there any truth to this or is this just a scare tactic to make you use their service department???
I mean really? this warranty stuff is getting crazy no?

Scare tactic. Your Nissan service tech is full of shiite. You do NOT need "a record with Nissan of oil changes" in order for the warranty to remain valid - the courts ruled on that BS a long time ago.
But FOR SURE keep a written log of your oil changes - include the date and miles on the odometer.
