A TSB is a prove it fix it, similar to how it has been but Nissan has acknowledge the problem basically. I told the guy helping me, look I am come in every week and bug you and it finally happen or we can fix it tomorrow morning. Not saying he was not going to fix it anyways, because they had the springs in stock, but it made my point.

Also, larger dealerships have probably already seen this issue so they are more likely to just accept the claim and go with it.

You should not need it, but some dealerships are the "typical" dealership and try to play around. I got it for people who run into this issue and they can come back and print it off and show it to them. I would bet if you walk in and ask about it they will know what you are talking about or can look it up.

Ya, I would just be prepared and have a copy of it with me in case they try to say they don't know what you are talking about. I can see certain dealers doing that but who knows.

You can right lick on my two images above and print them, they should be letter size, if that does not work send me a PM and I can email it to you as a PDF.

I drove in the ice, verrrryyyy slowly. ABS and VDC kept me safe, but I wouldn't recommend it.

I live down the road from you in Little Rock. I had to go into work yesterday and I ended up putting 'her' into the middle of the hwy. See my avatar? That's from the Jeep that pulled me out. The Z struggled everywhere and with the low ground clearance and summer rated tires, she couldn't get any traction hardly at all. If there is any kind of the slope, forget it. I ended up making it to work and back, but the Z is parked in front of my neighbors; I couldn't get her up the slight slope of my street and into my driveway

So the moral of the story is, DON'T TAKE YOUR 'Z' OUT IF THERE IS ANY ICE ON THE ROAD.

Default Stuck Hatch Release

When I take my 370Z back for my next service, I expect them to fix it under warranty.
It happens every time I go into the trunk. I push the release, pull up slightly, then push again to get it to open. It is a bit frustrating.
With this said --- I still love the car.
