Thats been on my mind every since the whole issue began to appear. Will likely just get it replaced for the peace of mind and just give the Nissan North America reps a piece of my mind at ZDayZ.

I'm worried about mine too and I may or may not be covered under warranty. I'm passed the 36k mile factory warranty, but I think it may be covered under my CPO warranty.

Its only been an issue for the past few months as this was when it started to happen to people. Now it appears that the 2012s don't even have this part any more which is even more interesting.

Def suspicious.... They probably heard about the problem and fixed it, but didn't inform any other Z owners

The GTRs had the same issue. They recalled the GTRs because they knew it would lead to bad press if they didn't do anything to fix their flagship car. Obviously they don't care as much about the Z or it's owners... $30-40k is not enough.

Probably some idiot turning into the spot who scratched in.

I park head facing out and it looks like he scratched the part right in front of my wheel, I noticed it because there was paint that was chipped off in little streaks and chunks and I looked at pics of my car from before and they were def not there.

It's at my apt complex and according to records, no one is supposed to be parking on either side of me, but I always see random people parking up there near my car on friday nights for the 'view' on the terrace. So I went and complained today...

Still pissed about this... you'd think I wouldn't have to deal with this **** paying for parking every month... so moving out of this place when my lease is up.
