Nissan 370Z Forum  

Nissan is a sh!t show company.

I have owned 8 new cars spread across 4 manufacturers over 35 years of driving. Domestic and import. None of them had defective paint within 7 days off the lot

I have owned 8 new cars spread across 4 manufacturers over 35 years of driving. Domestic and import.

None of them had defective paint within 7 days off the lot or over the time I owned the car. Nissan can't engineer paint to adhere to the Nismo kit. I had someone who worked for Infiniti, who was a member of this forum, PM me back in 2011 and acknowledged this was a known issue with certain models. I got nothing but BS from Nissan because it was an $8k repair to replace, repaint, and install the entire kit.

None of them had an electronic failure that completely disabled the car. Nissan could not engineer an ESL or correctly implement a recall. My car was purchased in May 2011 and it had the pos steering lock.

All of them have a sh!tty dealer network but not as sh!t bag as Nissan.

Some of them had low quality plastic but none of them had a $1,500 dash crap the bed and most of then unlike the Z were parked in the hot azz sun 100% of the time. Nissan ignores or purposely uses low grade materials for the dash on several models. There was/is a class action lawsuit on Altima's manufactured when the 370 was introduced.

None of them sent recall notices to a state not included in the recall. Nissan NA must be run by some asinine morons.

In other news ....


I say again FU Nissan.

Paint defects from the manufacturer do happen all the time. You had bad luck as you're the only case I've heard of this happening on a brand new Z personally.

Steering lock does suck, I would hope you would've done your research before hand and disabled the known faulty steering lock ahead of time but I guess **** happens, it is indeed a known old failure point of these cars.

Correct, Nissan dealerships are indeed *** and to be avoided at all cost.

You bought Nissan's budget sports car, are you honestly surprised some of the material they used is low quality?

I wouldn't be surprised if there was some legal requirement to send out that recall notice to everyone, regardless of applicable states.
