Possibly the OP didn't boost his car properly and has caused other damage as a result?

definitionxmk 02-05-2011 09:09 AM
It's weird for that to just happen... oh well

AllForTheCash 02-05-2011 09:41 AM
Yeah this is all just bad luck :mad: hopefully it all works out!

ProfessorDave 02-05-2011 10:54 AM
What a pain OP. Is this forcing you to ride the ferry from LI to Bridgeport everyday to check on your Z?

I have a friends living in Fairfield, CT, so I am living with them for now, and commuting to work in NYC from CT.

So, the dealer called me back...they said the car is ready.

Apparently all the fuses on the car needed to be replaced.

Going over now, fingers crossed.

Good luck w/ the car this time... I would have hoped the first time your car was serviced, they would have given it a through inspection for all fuses but at least they fixed the problem..

yay!

I think someone said it before, but didn't want you to make the same mistake again to any other cars. So, I will say it again. You blown your fuses by in proper jumping.

The battery was already about to die because it hasn't been properly charged for 2 years. But the fuses on the car were solely your mishap.

kenchan 02-05-2011 01:16 PM
GL with your new car! :D

Econ 02-05-2011 07:06 PM
got the car back, so far so good... :happydance:

Why take it back? He probably got a great deal. This is a minor, stupid issue that they'll take care of. Then it will be a fabulous car. My wife just got a Mazda CX-7 and it had an oil leak on the 3rd day of ownership. Three annoying days in the shop later, we had it back and it's great now. Sometimes there are little bumps...but they can be smoothed and won't be an issue down the road.
I once bought a brand new GM luxury car. The fan belt snapped on the way home from the dealership and had to be towed. Had 3 miles on it! It was fine for the next three years. You just never know.

This happened to me 11 days ago...
My dealer replaced my IPDM and Steering Wheel Lock Assembly.
After researching the forums I found that a few of the member have also had this problem the Steering wheel lock.
Anyway good luck and wasn't your day ruined?!
I was stuck at the gas station in the cold weather for 2 hours.
Yeah, Nissan Road Side!

Congrats. :) Enjoy the ride and keep us posted.

Pushing_Tin 02-05-2011 10:06 PM
Hope she's bulletproof from here on out. My 09 was very reliable.

Cmike2780 02-05-2011 10:08 PM
I can't believe you found an 09 with only 20 miles. It must have been sitting on the lot for a while. I would watch for anything else on this car, the tires especially since it was probably sitting on one spot all these years. Good luck OP and enjoy your new ride. Which dealership did you go to if you don't mind me asking?

No Problem. I bought it at Great Neck Nissan in Long Island...They were great... bought us breakfast and lunch while we were there and everything

Lemers 02-06-2011 01:06 AM
Good luck with the car. Hole it has no more problems.

The truth is I know more than you think.

A. Truth is really subjective. I would point to numerous writings by Existentialists and Phenomenologists for validation.
B. It is impossible to know what one knows. There is no reliable assessment tool and it would take too long. It would be easier to evaluate what one doesn't know.
3. You can infer what one thinks by their behavior. However, over a century of research has proven that this is a poor indicator of thoughts, often measured as values, attitudes, and beliefs.
D. I agree that reading the manual of any car is time well spent.

The truth is you are importcovert (sp?) with a G20. Thought you were going to leave us alone? :icon17:

I got hungry after reading all of this. Time for some hagdaz coffee icecream. :D

ZO6_Vette 02-06-2011 07:55 PM
LOL Professor very nice, but I disagree on the truth being subjective.

Kenchan all I can say is what G20? you must have me confused with someone else.

The post is an inside joke that only the owner of the car will understand.

I had a 97 Z28 that had a coolant leak on the drive home and a 96 Blazer that had fouled plugs. Crap happens, but they fix it and you go on, normally without issues.

Sometimes there are minor issues. Spearfish, can you pm the dealer you like? Sorry for the off topic.
