Big Problem with Hackensack Nissan

sonic370 · 09-10-2010, 08:58 PM

Sorry but you drove your car until it got so low on oil it cut off! If i understood you right. I'm surprised the dealer even honored the warranty.

I was at my dealership a couple of weeks ago when a guy had his Z towed in
that had locked up on the highway. it had 7500 miles on it and had never even
changed the oil. it had 1 quart in it. 12 grand later he got his car back.

the dealership actually recommended I change the oil every 7500 miles max since it's synthetic. The engine shouldn't consume that much oil anyways. I changed every 3000 and check levels every other fill up and found very little consumption, even when I'm nearing an oil change. There was someone here with that problem a while back, maybe the same guy?

PM me for Nissan of North America Customer Service email and some other interesting email addresses that will get their attention if you are on the East Coast.

I can't believe there are this many people having oil level issues. Wether it'' burning too much oil or the level is low, I can't believe with all the technology they put in our cars that a pressure light or low oil level sensor was never added!?!?

I check my oil every so often and I defiantly don't wait 7,500 miles, but now I read sh$t like this and start checking it daily! HAHA! I can't even imagine how many people are having this problem that are not even associated with the forum to report it. I hope people read these finding s and check there oil before it's too late!

Good luck to all

your not the only one with dealership problems.

my intakes are ruined

Holliday · 09-11-2010, 10:20 AM

DAMN! They sure f%&ked that intake up! Hope you made them replace the entire system! That is why I do my own work. I don't trust any dealership that's fo sho!

Vegitto-kun · 09-11-2010, 10:33 AM

Yeaaah, I don't trust myself with my car haha.

+ I trusted them since they have the only GT-R technician in belgium and he did the install.

I cant stand the dealers in my area, they are all full of sh%t !! hope everything works out

Holliday · 09-11-2010, 01:24 PM

Checking the floor won't do a whole lot of good with the plastic undercarriage. But at least pulling the dipstick and checking the oil level will do wonders for people! 5 minutes to check something or 5 months waiting to get a new engine, not a very hard choice IMO
