They said that this should be covered on the extended warranty and it is not however this is a recall item that nissan should cover the cost for all of their customer's who purchased this rotten vehicle in the first place with this built in obsolescence or designed to break down and shut down on the owner and "leave them stranded" why would you knowingly allow this defect on all of these million's of manufactured defected "junk" of a car why would you nissan allow this piece of sh_ t vehicle to be made knowing that this would be a "huge inconvenience to the customer vehicle owner?
