CSC failure covered under warranty?
Did this question ever get answered? Specifically, does the 5 year 60k mile warranty cover the concentric slave cylinder (CSC) failure.

Sorry it's been awhile since I checked this thread. My car was at Kings Nissan. I've always heard good things about Kings, and my experience was great!! Quote:
Mine was not covered. I eventually bitched enough that Nissan USA paid for half of my repair, so it still cost me $700

That's disturbing since the Nissan warranty indicates that it covers the drivetrain with the exception of those items excluded which are primarily wear items or abused equipment. in my thinking the CSC is an intregal part of the transmission drivetrain. I think that it may be worth a trip to small claims court. Has anyone had success with Nissan covering the failed CSC under the 5 year 60k mile warranty not the three year warranty? |

I had this happen and the dealer on changed the fluid to GTR fluid thats it and its been working fine one morning though the pedal felt unusually soft and the engagement point was not where it usually is so I kept on driving it because I had to go to work and after the drive it came back to normal which kind scares me because i feel like its going to fail completely as soon as I'm out of warranty....

I've only had the pedal stick to the floor once, when the car was about 2 months old. BUT, when I drive it first thing in the morning, if I get after it and shift quickly, the clutch pedal makes a really weird nice, like a clunk or something with each shift. CSC?

Doesn't sound like it - mine gave no warning noises. In fact it never made noise before, during, or after failure. I don't know that it even could - if you saw it you would know what i mean. Its a small plastic bit that fits in your hand.

Solid argument for CSC to be included in the 5yr/60,000mi Powertrain Warrantee
Hi guys,
My story is the same as everyone else's. I got my 370Z used with 26750 miles. TWO WEEKS later, the CSC failed. The car still had 4.5 month under the 5yr/60,000mi warrentee, but Nissan said that the CSC was not covered under the powertrain warrantee. I did my homework.... and I'm stubborn. Now, eventually, the dealership I got the car from recognized that they had to cover the repairs as I was still in their 30 day "they have to cover all repairs" window, so I didn't actually have to deal with Nissan directly, however, I learned some valuable information that I figured I would share so others in this situation with Nissan have some ammunition to argue their case. Items that are BOLD and UNDERLINED are of pivotal importance. 1) For completeness, owners of pre-used cars are covered: https://owners.nissanusa.com/content...2009_N_WIB.pdf Quote:
2) Referring to Nissan's own Factory Warrentee Manual regarding the Powertrain warrantee: Quote:
3) Nissan tried telling me that the CSC was not a powertrain component and therefore not covered under the powertrain warrantee. The CSC is Nissan part#: 306A1-JK40D, and listed under the parts category TRANSMISSION CASE & CLUTCH RELEASE which is under the parent category POWER TRAIN [F]. Their OWN part documentation classifies the CSC as a powertrain part. 2009 Nissan 370z Coupe OEM Parts - Nissan USA eStore Part# 306A1-JK40D I have heard of others in this thread and their success getting Nissan to recognize that the CSC falls under the powertrain warrantee. I was armed with all this material to make it clear that this part should be covered. When it comes down to it, anyone presented with this documentation who still tried to deny that the CSC was not a covered part would just make themselves sound like a complete idiot. There is not much to argue. Shove their own documentation down their throat and insist that they hold up their end of the deal by supporting your car! Quote:

Hey guys. I'm going through a CSC failure as well. Nissan consumer affairs has been dealing with my dealership.
Their (the dealership's) argument is that it's only covered under basic service. Except it's a powertrain component listed on their own website. And the warranty under Basic states: "...if the part is covered by one of the separate coverages described in the following sections of this warranty, that specific coverage applies instead of the basic coverage." The Consumer Rep's response was that he wasn't sure if it fell under transmission and I had him pull up the part with me at "http://parts.nissanusa.com/nissanparts/?selyear=2010&selmodel=370Z+Coupe&searchText=306A1-JK40D&action=replacement&makeid=25&siteid=14&catalogID=0" Which is listed under Transmission Case and Clutch Release - whereupon the Power Train Warranty states that "Case and all internal parts..." is covered. Waiting for him to contact the dealership again, but while I wait I was hoping for you guys who have had your CSC covered under the Power Train warranty to please help me out and PM me your case # if you have it or names etc. Something I can use to tell them that this **** has been covered before so this is a bunch of bullcrap. Sorry for the long rant. Really. Really. Mad. |

TRANSMISSION AND TRANSAXLE Case and all internal parts, torque converter and converter housing, automatic transmission control module, transfer case and all internal parts, seals and gaskets, clutch cover and housing, and electronic transmission controls. And what it specifically does not say is "and all internal parts" because that would include the clutch which in a sports car is and should be subject to abuse. The transmission case and internal parts is the transmission itself and has nothing to do with the clutch housing between the trans and the engine. Because the specific part number is under the driveline coding does not mean it's covered because it is, because you'll also find the clutch disc under the same breakdown, which is definitely not covered, nor is the pressure plate if found it has been subjected to abuse. And lets face it, if you're not abusing it, go buy a Ford Focus, you have no business driving a manual Z |
