PS: I broke my engine in hard and havent had any oil consumption problems. only time my car ever consumed some oil was before the first oil change and it was only like half a quart.

A new crate engine on a 2009-2010 must be in the order of $10k, so I'd be waving the option of going to court in Nissan's face if it were me. They're likely to cooperate on a repair that serious.
The minimum proper repair here is to have the cylinder heads checked out or at least have the inevitable varnish from an oil-consuming engine cleaned out of them to avoid any future oiling issues. I'd be happy if Nissan paid the dealership to do either.
