Downtime (how long without car)? Was fixed in about an hour at Smith Nissan.

Figured i'd chime in and let you guys know I had to tow the car today (March 2015). I guess it was my lucky day - I was less than a mile from the dealership when my lock broke, then it was repaired under warranty in less than an hour.

If there IS an ongoing class action lawsuit, please let me know - I'd like to join in. If not, we should get one started, seeing as how alot of members (and maybe non-members) have already been affected by this.

My out of pocket is $1127.52, which Nissan WILL NOT reimburse. :icon14:

Downtime (how long without car)? No downtime but the keyfob light is turning on and off (so its coming).

Nissan wanted $1,221,00 for the fix. I laughed and left. I created a case, Nissan refused to pay for it. Time to pull the fuse out!
