Thanks I would appreciate that.
SO let contrast the Nissan response to one from Toyota, admittedly years ago. BTW I also had other issues with Toyota so they are NOT in my good books despite this positive incident.
I had a problem with a new 1987 Toyota Tercel I purchased in the last days of 1 yr 12,000 warranty's.
The front tires wore out in 7,000 miles !!
The dealership did an alignment and rotated the tires.
at 14,000 mile the tires were shot again and the car need 4 new tires. remember this had a 12,000 warranty.
The dealer called Toyota and got permission to work on the car.
They did the following
1) checked the alignment. Only thing adjustable was the toe, it was OK.
2) called Toyota and got the OK to send the car out to a frame shop in the Audi dealership ( strange I thought)
3) they couldn't find anything wrong, so they shipped another new car over for comparison.
In the end they concluded the frame was fine, the rear axle and placement was fine,
Replace the front drivers side spring.
4) the alignment tech at the dealer replaced the spring and reassembled the car and used in their words "a large hammer to align everything up" ( I was thinking sledge hammer)
So at this point I go else where and buy the cheapest tires I could find at discount tire because I am expecting to be replacing them again soon.
So imagine my surprise when these tires lasted 80,000 miles !!!! even with teenage daughter driving it.
So would Toyota be as responsive today ???
