i am the 3rd owner of my 09, but the car only has 20k on it. should a nissan dealership be giving me any crap by not covering this under the standard 3 year 36,000 warranty because i am not the original owner? going into the dealership at 1 and need to know exactly what im getting into.

again, keeping in mind that since this is an 09 with 20k, i am still within the 3 year 36k vehicle warranty (i think?)

anyone who has had to deal with similar issues that has any advice would be greatly appreciated

(ALSO, my car is dyno tuned. should i get this tune taken off before i run the car into the dealership?)

Likely YES.
