Your out of Factory warranty so unless there is a service bulletin or recall on said component...factory can and has a right to deny claims. Now your vehicle should have power train warranty on it covering you engine and tranny...if you got a bad ECU...Powertrain warranty will not apply !

Now if you bought an EXTENDED warranty , you'd be fully protected , you may have to pay an $50-100 deductable at best...but warranty covers 85% of the car - minus wearables...tires, wiper blades , hoses, batteries ect.

Some if not most people forgo because they don't wanna pay the 25-30 bucks extra a month...but worth it if you need it.

Technically if you don't have any of the above mentioned your *** out ! The dealer has A SMALL PROVISION , 30 DAYS OR 1,000 MILES WARRANTY...IT MAY BE 50/50 IT NORMALLY ONLY COVERS MAJOR COMPONENTS.

IF ALL ESLSE...TRADE IT AND SUCK UP YOUR LOSSES and buy from Nissan dealer next time , and buy an extended warranty and you'll have no worries.
I paid $3,000 for an extended warranty. 48 months /50k miles. They rushed through it so I didn't get a good look at everything it covered. I glossed over it as quick as I could and it looked like it covered everything engine/trans wise. The original owner is a member on here and messaged me a couple of times. He mentioned that it started having this misfire problem around 15-20k miles. Also mentioned, quote "the ECU freaked out and once i took off it started doing burnout and i let off the throttle and it was still going full throttle".

There will be a Nissan Engineer looking at it all day Monday. I feel like...if HE of all people can't figure out the issue, then I should get something in motion.

Also, the car is paid off. I owe nothing.
