| Description of the problem | Upon driving the vehicle the seat started to slide toward the passenger side. Upon bring it to a mechanic i was told that the plastic wheel in the chair mech was worn out and need to be replaced. Called nissan and there answer to me was first if i was over weight and claim that is why it broke. Wrong answer i am not over weight to cause that and then i was told that i had to buy the whole new seat and a track that cost is 800 for the part and at that point i told them all i need is a plastic wheel... Company told me if i had an extended warranty it would be fix. Well i don't have one and truly don't feel like i would of need one for the age and mileage of this vehicle/ it appears that there has been alot of troubles with the 2005 model and they knew it and felt that if people have a warranty to fix things they will be fixed and there is no paper trail of there poor manufacturing of the vehicle. As of today there now telling me that my oil pan and the alot of the parts of the undercarriage of the vehicle is rotted and need to be replaced. I have never had a rotted oil pan, nor has any of my undercarriage of the vehicle rotted, it appears that there parts are not having a protection coat of rustolum on them and yet once again there answer is if i have a warranty it would be covered. |
