Robert,

If you are not affiliated with Nissan then I apologize for making that statement. But you sure try to push their product.

The point here is that Nissan certainly appears to have known they had an issue and launched the car with their collective fingers crossed.

On the Boxsters, I don't recall anyone in my area being put off about a quick resolution. Customers were taken care of and customers came back as repeat customers. The question is what will Nissan do?

Along with the issue on the 996 I had a seal fail in the oil cooler console on my 88 944 Turbo S. The car was nearly a year out of warranty and Porsche picked up the bill. They only asked that I go ahead and do the service which was due at the time. That was an expensive repair as it necessitated the removal of the oil pan, new rod bearings, oil pump, water pump, complete flush and a lot of gaskets.

Oh, and they gave me a 911 to drive while it was in for repair. I didn't have to rent a Sentra as another member did when his 370Z gearbox went south.

Just found what I thought linked you to sales. It appears that possibly you supply parts/services to Nissan?

From Robert Nash: All employees are encouraged to use the program for themselves and family and friends; however as I said above, we are generally restricted to just a few per year (including any vehicles we might want to buy for ourselves)…that restriction has been lifted for this quarter.

Typically, we don’t get anything “out of it” except the chance to promote the products of the company we work for. For this quarter, however, for any VPP claim number we obtain that ultimately results in a sale, our name is put in a raffle and the winner will receive the free use of any Nissan (sans GT-R unfortunately) or Infinity vehicle of their choice for year.
<O></O>
It’s a nice prize but given the thousands of employees who will be participating, I’m not overly optimistic about winning - if I happen to be lucky enough, I’ll let you all know!
This does sound like you have an incentive judging by how you worded the above.
