There have been a couple threads (way back when the 370 was newer) with people fighting repair cost all the way up to Nissan Corporate and were told "sorry, you are SOL"

Interestingly, the '09 GT-R had the same issue and a recall WAS issued. Go figure.

Honestly it's not even worth the headache to do all that. It takes 10 mins max to pull the fuse out and never have to worry about it again. Just look up the DIY and get it done

Has anyone seen the red amuse Z around recently? My buddy (who knows cars so I don't question it) says he's seen a yellow Z around Columbia a couple times now with the amuse kit on it. So we've either got a second amuse in the area or the guy painted his car.

Pretty sure painting a red 370, Yellow, would be the most colosal waste of money evar lol.

They got nice kits, if there is in fact two of them.

Spotted a black 370 going west on 66 yesterday around 445, has "pohanka" right under his Nissan emblem. Looked stock.
