They reported it to the NHTSA Home | National Highway Traffic Safety Administration(NHTSA) | U.S. Department of Transportation and filed complaints. Im sure if most of you file complaints here Nissan will have to put a recall out on these cars as there may be a investigation on this topic. Its ashame that a performance car is overheating and Nissan is not helping owners and making them pay for their mistake good luck with this situtaion I hope this helps you guys out. |
This is not an issue or a problem or a defect or a... you get the idea. It's totally overblown. For on-the-street operation no one on this forum AFAIK has had their vehicle go into the protective limp mode because of high oil temperature. Some have experienced it while tracking their cars and that is remedied with an oil cooler...which Nissan acknowledges. The sky is NOT falling, thank you very much.
