1) pulling the fuse is how the dealership prevents the problem (not cutting the wire)
2) you may or may not have to perform this yourself, but check just in case.

I bought my car brand new btw.

Out of curiousity, did they leave the pulled fuse in the glove box or otherwise give it to you? You're saying they pulled it before they delivered the car to you but didn't tell you they had done so. Is that correct? Very interesting.

No, they didn't give me the fuse.
Yes, it looks like they pulled the fuse while it was on the lot and didn't tell me they had already done it. I purchased mine from Nissan Sunnyvale and they had around 10 370s there when I bought mine off the lot late 2011.
