370z roof won't move warning light on

Philoz001

My top has had 5 major failures. The wiring harness was replaced. From reading this and many other threads the factory has the wires installed without enough slack causing them to rub on the fram and other parts resulting in breaking or shorting.

The hydraulics were damaged during the electrical repairs. Most dealers do not know how to work on soft tops. Dave West Jr. From Alabama Auto Top Specialists along with Klaus Witte at Top Hydraulics were wonderful to work with in repairing the hydraulics. The dealership had one line bent at 90 degrees!

My latest problem is the exact one that started this thread. A million thanks on directing me to 15amp fuse in the battery compartment to silence that darned warning buzzer along with the official Nissan parts list.

Another dealer wants to replace my top for $20K. The car isn't worth that much. It looks like the actual cost is closer to $11K. The dealer would give me $5K for the car which tells me if the book value is about $18K that they have at least $7K of profit built into the repair!

Since I have all the repair invoices and can clearly show the problems started while under warranty and are repetitive I have retained an attorney and am going after Nissan to repair. Nissan flatly turned me down when I called them to ask for some financial assistance.

What a shame, such a nice car and they cannot get the top built correctly.
