So as soon as the tow truck rolls on base it has a problem with its air breaks. Now I'm baby sitting the tow truck until another tow truck comes

yeah they will give you the upgrade set up. You shouldn't have a problem after it gets changed out. They know about the problem but will not recall the cars.

Hey it's not cursed if it is still under warranty. Since I have less than a month left its actually great timing, cause if this happened at the end of February they would be charging me around $1000.

i need to know who put the curse on me. well lets see, last dyno day, digi came up and his car is on its third trans, so i'm guessing he had the curse. a lil while later i had to get a new trans. i passed it on to premals car with the door ding, and last meet he passed it on to lemers... question is.. who's next.

on the steering lock problem, i wouldnt trust any rev of the lock that nissan gives u. nissan went thru 4 revisions of the software and still couldnt get it right. i would just pull the fuse for insurance

Dealer called me... It is the steering wheel lock (as if we didn't know). It's gonna take them a week to get the parts in and fix the car. I need to bring them my spare key because they are going to reprogram them. They are going to give me a loaner car while they have mine. No mention of this not being under warranty.

So I was wrong. My original warranty date was 16 jan 2010. So it is done. But I did get the extended warranty we will see how this claim goes.

Well he said he's gonna first try the extended warranty company (because that's the right route). If they don't pay then I'm gonna tell them I want a refund (probably never see a dime) and start a more diligent effort to find a new car (maybe a 2013 Shelby or Boss)
