NO Owners Manual!!!

FuszNissan · 12-04-2009, 12:35 PM

Go to the sales manager and explain that your vehilce came without an owners manual. It's scary that you didn't get the salesperson to go over it with you. You can order on from parts though. FYI

some dealerships only care about the money going into their accounts ::COUGH:: West Winsor Nissan NJ . I was lucky with my jeep and my eclipse (peruzzi in PA)... the dealers I bought them from were good but I would just go in ask to talk to the sales manager and tell him you have looked everywhere and cannot find it and dont remember ever seeing it. they will fix your issue. if not ebay one...

Okay, lets get some things straight. Warranties that you buy cannot be voided by parts you add to your vehicle, pretty much no matter what. However, CLAIMS can be denied outright if and only if the parts that were installed DIRECTLY caused the issue at hand. If the transmission decides to fall out at a stop light, they can't deny a claim on the car b/c you have a full exhaust with no cats unless they can prove that the install required some fancy work that has to do w/ a transmission.

Hell, coming from a Subie world, I had a stage 3 WRX that a motor blew on and it was covered under warranty since the engine failure was not a direct result of my driving or my modifications but, mods that were previously done to the vehicle when I took ownership of it. I think I had to spend some cash on a new clutch and flywheel on it, that was it b/c I was around 80k miles on stock.

Sorry, when people talk about warranties, they always think everything under the sun will "void" it.

Okay, as for the owner's manual and paper work that you should have gotten. Is this your first new car? Owner's Manuals (on all the new and some used vehicles I have purchased in the last 5 years) did not have the manuals or anything else in them until I signed paperwork to take over those vehicles. It seems that, at least in my area, dealers don't want manuals damaged or stolen on vehicles. Yes, they do get stolen, oddly enough.

My suggestion would be to go back to your salesman and request all of the paperwork and a free shirt and hat. Hell, most salesmen will give you their business cards and a dealership card in the manual for your keeping so it seems that either you or the salesman were in a bit of a hurry to get the deal done and it was forgotten.

Sorry, my e-rage is high after traffic today.

When I bought my Z it had the manual from a 350Z. I just went back later on and asked my salesman for one from a 370, he apologized and pulled one out of another car on the lot. Sounds like the guy you talked to was being a little lazy.

make sure they give you the service booklet as well. Again, that is one clueless dealer

Got it!..never thought I'd be so excited about a Manual lol... what pretty pictures.

My sales guy delivered mine to my house personally when I said I had every book but the owner’s manual in my car. I’m willing to bet he took it from another Z on the lot.

When you bought your car brand new, you should get the following:
