Nobody "fooled" me. I was not happy but they wouldn't budge. What else could I do? It's just a car. Not worth the aggravation. My concerns were documented.

Take it to another dealer. Get NNA involved. Get an attorney. You have plenty of options- it just depends on how far you want to go with it.

Not far. I later traded it in on another car, so I stopped caring.

I'm not going to give myself an ulcer over any car problem. Once the dealer knows about it and has documented the issue to the point where my butt is covered, I stop caring.

However, I did take an issue once all the way to NNA concerning improper alignment with my first 350Z. Everyone kept telling me it was within spec, but it pulled like a mother to the right. Finally got an old timer Nissan tech that worked on the original Z cars. Knew what it was immediately and fixed it. (Rear toe adjustment)
