Stuck hatch...

Kirkster · 07-28-2009, 05:40 PM

This was a big issue on the original 350Z. you could try the two penny trick as most of us with 350Z had to do but it does not always work. Nissan needs to address this, but probably won't unless enough people complain.

If mine does this when I get it in a couple of months you can bet I will be complaining and taking it in until it gets addressed one way or the other.

Holding the button never worked for me. Its either press the button pull up on it when I'm one handed or pull up with the other hand while I hold the button down...

I went to my Nissan dealer today to have an oil change service.
I complained about the sticky hatch and was told that the TSB just came out today for the 370Z sticky hatch problem.
The dealer is ordering the a new set of springs for me.
