The more I read, the more pissed I get. Pretty sad that you spend 40k plus on a car and get a 99$ paint job AND at over 600 bucks for a factory wheel, you'd think the finish would be better. I am going to tear some azzes up on tuesday!!!! buncha BS!!!

bro. dont go in all hot and ready to fight!!! you will get nothing but the door. just talk it out! and they pill put out!

Yeah I know. I was just venting. They sent pics to nissan so we'll see what they say. I also have a contact number and left a message. I'm cool dude, I'll be very calm and professional when I tell them I will set the dealership on fire.

just kidding........I think.

Just got word from the dealer that they will not cover my paint after they inspected it.

I have a black 2010 roadster z (10k miles) and this paint is worse than my car I traded for it (2007 black armada with 65k miles). My last 3 cars over the period of 9 years have been made by nissan and since Nissan wont cover their new crappy paint this z will be my last. Also I will make sure to tell everyone I know not to buy a Nissan because the paint will look like crap after 1 year of light use.

Even when I was at the St. Louis auto show last weekend it was evident that the new nissans had deeper swirl marks than most of the cars at the show.

sorry to hear that...was it the rep that said no or the service department?

RoadZter 02-03-2012 06:58 PM

I think you need to go WAY above the service dept or anyone at the dealer. I had to call nissan directly for the wheels. Even then it was POA. Lot's of emails, lots of VMs. That's sad that with only 10k miles the dealer isn't being more of an advocate for you. Not all dealers are the same. Maybe try another dealer and they may be able to contact someone directly? Just make sure you document what's going on. I've heard some folks got service contracts, etc. Not me though! Just new wheels. Good luck!

This pic pretty much tells the story on how crappy the finish was on my wheels. Keep in mind I only had 3k miles at the time! The second dealer that I went to plus a contact that was generously given to me resulted in getting them replaced. Not as bad as having issues with the body but still, never had a car that had rims look like this after only 3k miles!

What caused the black spots/stains on your Rays wheels?!

service department manager acted like he actually worked for nissan by feeding me lines of bs. He at first tried to tell me the front bumper doesnt match because its a different material. I then pointed out the rear was the same material and it matches.

He then said he talked to the rep and he denied the claim without even looking at the car.

I have since talked to nissan consumer affairs and they are dragging their feet about the situation. I guess they really dont care about my loyalty for the past 8.5 years.

just a warning to all potential buyers... .nissan sucks about backing there product

jazz 02-10-2012 09:11 AM

dude...Nissan Canada did me well...suit up...go in...take charge...be NICE!
