Reminds me of when I bought a brand new 1989 S-10 Pickup. Aspen Blue, I think. I was 17 yrs old, in high school, and working to pay for it myself. The paint started delaminating from the primer within a few months of delivery. Dealer first accused me of using the "new high pressure" car washes, and refused to do anything. Had to work with GM directly, and best I could get was multiple repaints over the years after the paint periodically pealed. Local newspaper (small town) wouldn't help me out - the didn't have the might to deal with GM, nor wanted to tick off the local dealership because they were an advertiser.

Turns out this was a problem that ultimately plagued GM and Chrysler and was a result of new govt regulation limiting the use of lead in paint, and paint adhesion.

So to this day, I've never bought another new GM car, and certainly never dealt with that dealer again. Not because the problem occurred, but because of how it was handled.

Hopefully flashburn didn't compromise too much. Personally, after first contact with dealer and Nissan with no quick response, I would have contacted my lawyer asap to understand my rights and best way to proceed.
