I had thought that TSB's only applied to vehicles that they could replicate the problem, so it wasnt a recall of all models, just information to dealers about common issues and the fix. When I mentioned it to the dealer about a week ago I was told they would have to replicate it before they can do anything about...though that was before the TSB was released, so maybe they can do it now

ya i took mine to the dealer a week or two ago and they couldn't freakin replicate the problem. I sent them this new info and he told me that he was ordering the parts today. Sounds good to me... maybe ur's will do the same

A TSB is a prove it fix it, similar to how it has been but Nissan has acknowledge the problem basically. I told the guy helping me, look I am come in every week and bug you and it finally happen or we can fix it tomorrow morning. Not saying he was not going to fix it anyways, because they had the springs in stock, but it made my point.

Also, larger dealerships have probably already seen this issue so they are more likely to just accept the claim and go with it.

do u just print a copy of the tsb? and take it to em ?

theDreamer

You should not need it, but some dealerships are the "typical" dealership and try to play around. I got it for people who run into this issue and they can come back and print it off and show it to them. I would bet if you walk in and ask about it they will know what you are talking about or can look it up.

Ya, I would just be prepared and have a copy of it with me in case they try to say they don't know what you are talking about. I can see certain dealers doing that but who knows.

TSB Rep. Thanks Dreamer.

You can right lick on my two images above and print them, they should be letter size, if that does not work send me a PM and I can email it to you as a PDF.

thanks a bunch man ... its iced over here rite now and people say the Z is un-ice-drive-able?

jikhead

I live down the road from you in Little Rock. I had to go into work yesterday and I ended up putting 'her' into the middle of the hwy. See my avatar? That's from the Jeep that pulled me out. The Z struggled everywhere and with the low ground clearance and summer rated tires, she couldn't get any traction hardly at all. If there is any kind of the slope, forget it. I ended up making it to work and back, but the Z is parked in front of my neighbors; I couldn't get her up the slight slope of my street and into my driveway

So the moral of the story is, DON'T TAKE YOUR 'Z' OUT IF THERE IS ANY ICE ON THE ROAD.
