Model: (Base or Touring) base w/ sport package Transmission: (6MT/7AT) 6mt Miles: 50,500 Lock Revision: D City: Hollister State: CA Country: USA Towed: Yes or No. Yes Did You Disable SLU? Yes or No. No Downtime (how long without car)? 4 hours Luckily I was able to get the car started after getting it towed to my work. I hit the steering lock a few times with a rubber Mallet And got it to crank. I pulled the fuse and all Is good so far. Thanks to all you guys here otherwise I would have been screwed taking the car to the stealership |
looks like its been a bit for this, or most of you beat me with pulling the fuse.
Year: 09 Model: base touring Transmission: (7AT) Miles: a hair over 70k Lock Revision: State: CA Downtime (how long without car)? 3 days 240$ TOTAL for tow twice. Plus a 6 hour wait to tow a few miles. Couldnt get the tow in time for dealership. Be warned. Most guys wont touch these things because they are avoiding any types of damages from it being low. If your tow truck driver has towed corvettes and such, you will be fine. Almost 4 tow places denied the tow. Make sure you got a good tow policy. 600 in labor and parts.

Model: (Base or Touring) Sport Transmission: (6MT/7AT) 6MT Miles: 105k at the time (it happened in 1/2017) Lock Revision: C I believe City: Charleston State: SC Country: USA Towed: Yes Did You Disable SLU? No Downtime (how long without car)? 3 days I had forgotten about this until I received a notification on my phone from the site. My original bill from Nissan was $1,200+/-. I called Nissan North America who told me to file a claim in writing. I filed and they responded quickly telling me that my particular VIN # isn't included in the 2009-2010 recall. I was PO'd and told them I didn't care if it was in the VIN range or not, that I had the same issue thousands of others are having. They escalated my claim and have offered to reimburse me for the parts by NOT labor. So, they are willing to pay me about $800. I guess I should take it but wanted to see what you all had to say. Let me know, thanks! |
