Also, upon purchasing the vehicle, the Car Fax report looked great - the previous owner had seemingly taken good care of the car - oil changes on time.
What is this normal oil they gave you? People will say any oil is fine, but getting the proper oil will dictate the longevity of your engine. Haters can hate, but when I say proper oil, it does not have to be the Nissan Ester oil.

No disrespect, but Car Fax is garbage. I can buy a new car, mod it, thrash the hell out of it, wreck it and still trade it in with a clean title. Not every service/repairs gets reported to them.

Anyway, back to the topic, get that 2nd opinion asap. The more conclusions and assumptions happening, the more paranoid you might be. I'm sorry to be blunt, but deal with it right now than later that will waste your time and money, and worse, Nissan might say its your fault and they wont cover it.
