Clutch Slave Cylinder Problems - Captone Law

axmea?

LOL. If you signed up, you probably felt good. That is it for you though. Wishful thinking if you hope to get the offset from Nissan to fund an aftermarket solution. Nissan's will fight class certification. You are SOL if you bought your car used - they will eliminate used Z owners from the class. Nissan will have a strong argument against including used Z's in the class - normal wear and tear, modifications, abuse, etc. Nissan will argue that only those who purchased new and still have the car will be in the class. Additionally, in cases where it failed under warranty, Nissan repaired it at no cost to the consumer. Nissan will also argue that it is not a safety issue. There aren't any reported deaths or injuries resulting from this. Highly unlikely but even if Capstone suck-seeds (pun intended) in class certification and win, the class will get pennies on the dollar. As with many class action lawsuits, the REAL winner will be the blood sucking lawyers at Capstone. Have fun with the class.

@axmea? Yeah - I am pretty familiar with the class action nonsense... I was part of at least 50 of them through the .com years and I think altogether probably amassed $350.. if that. Mind you - when I say "offset" I am under no delusions that it would barely cover tax.. not balance the scales.

@JARBlue I read some pretty encouraging reviews about the ZSpeed replacement - and that appears to be a successful change. The Z1 elimination sounds a little more intensive to replace but "corrects" the poor design.. however I found less empirical data on its reliability. It appears you went with the latter... do you know of any stats?

Thanks in advance,

Except for people such as myself that have maintained documented proof (for the used car owners) that the previous owner didn't abuse the car prior to sell back to a nissan stealership. My car was purchased with 1700 miles on it and the CSC didn't go out until almost 60,000 miles. With the wave of CSC issues being reported over the years there leaves little doubt their is an issue with them, and with 58,000 miles between purchase and subsequent failure of my CSC there is no way that abuse or otherwise can be proven.

Lol. Unless you bought extended warranty from Nissan, yours is just an out of warranty claim.
