| Description of the problem | Nissan recalled rear lower control arms for 2013 altimas just last month. I am looking to get mine repaired at the dealer, mossy kearny mesa, who told me last year it was defective. I have only been in california for a couple of years. My car was bought and driven in virginia where they use road salt (a stipulation of the recall). The dealer is unaware of the recall. I contacted a rep at the number the dealer gave me, 1-800-647-7261, and they did not know about the recall either. When i asked to speak to someone from nissan america corp., the rep said they would have their supervisor call me back in a few days, but that their super would only tell me the same thing. I am getting nowhere with nissan much like in the past. I have had to fight for repairs for almost every recalled or revised part on my car including the airbags, transmission, door handle, and now this. I would appreciate it if someone contacted me about this issue as soon as possible. Thank you. |
