Hey all,

I've been holding off on posting because I didn't want any of my frustrations at any certain time fog up actual info.

Its becoming more and more difficult to stay quiet, however.

A month without my Z is nearing, and when I inquire as to the status of this procedure, its always: "we don't have this paperwork from there" or "this other person needs to follow up with this person."

As consumers, we want to feel like we are being taken care of- that the manufacturer will quickly strive to make things right after they have done something wrong. I have loved Zs since I learned about the 240 and couldn't have been happier when I got into my own. Unfortunately, with the way this headache is turning out, I may just end up taking my money elsewhere. I hope no one on here has to go through this, because with all the phone calls and follow ups between dealership and corporate- I may as well be a ******* employee of theirs.

Is your car modded? With so few miles and perfect maintenance I'm confused as to how there is even a question of weather or not it's covered.

Besides a dealer installed jdm rear fog and powder coated wheels... No mods.

As I mentioned earlier, i did just receive swift springs, z1 MAF tubes and K&N drop ins for my bday... But alas, I've nothing to put them on. :/

Back to OP, sorry to hear about this issue and I can only imagine the frustration that you are going through. What with calling here and calling there, basically piggy in the middle?
