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?
I had the engine replaced in my 350z under warranty for fuel consumption. My receipt for 10 genuine nissan oil filters was good enough to show that I did regular oil changes.
