:roflpuke2: lol sad but true :rolleyes:

Forget the pennies, I placed a nickle size piece of hard rubber (childs school eraser ) in each spring cylinder and it works perfect :tup:

So instead of taking the car in for a warranty claim and wasting my time, I almost feel like it's a better deal for me just to order the correct springs and install them myself.

Somewhere in a Charleston, SC schoolroom a child goes without the ability to undo a simple mistake, all because of one man's quest to lift his hatch.

:roflpuke2: hey Steve!

Hey dude. We have been hanging around the forums a lot lately but haven't really crossed paths. I miss the banter! :stirthepot:

LOL, oh oh, I am ruining the future of America's youth by absconding with their erasers :eek:

Yeah, unless they are English majors. You have to write in pen in English class because the pen does not allow you to erase, thus exposing all of your thoughts on paper. But then they just turn out to be sociopathic killers and sort of hurt society, by killing its members.

So I suggest you start stealing as much ink as you can.

:confused: ink won't fix the stuck hatch ..................... ok, I see the connection now......... Nissan is responsible for the future sociopaths of America because they were too cheap to do a recall on the short hatch springs , damn corporations :stirthepot: :p

I know right.

Well, you can dry the ink and probably somehow make it into something that could help your hatch. Or you could resell the ink to squid and octopii and use that money to buy new springs. Don't know if Nissan will accept payment in seashells, though. But a seashell collector could probably do the exchange for you.

:eek: OK, this may take me a while to fashion a comeback :roflpuke2:

This is your chance to make a difference. What you do right now is all that matters.

ha, ya...ive been swamped with work lately...its been keeping me too pre-occupied to get myself in trouble :icon17:

ok!

i just added a downloadable pdf of the tsb to the first post for all those that need to print off the tsb to take with them to the dealership :tup:

Rear Hatch..
 

Interesting, my 2003 Z had the same issue and subsequent TSB issued. Why would they make the same mistake 6 years later.
