What the ****? You're paying, they shouldn't have any say.

Take it somewhere else.

 

Thats crazy talk.
They have to do the service campaign no matter what.
Car runs and drives so there should be no issue.

 

uh...HighlanderMac: let's not talk until we know what we're talking about, ok?

Since it is a safty service campaign, and not a recall, there is some leeway with the dealership as to if they do the work or not. Usually the only requirement is that you drove the car there, and it's not belching smoke or missing key parts. My frame is a little rusty, and I've got a small hole in my passenger side floor pan, but I had NO problems getting the work done.

I assume you've already called 1-800-Nissan-1 to see if the work has already been done on your car. If it is eligible to have the work done, call back to the dealership and tell them you talked to Nissan, and all 84-89 300zx's are to be fixed.

If they are still balking at doing the work, call another dealership in the area. Someone should be sympathetic to your cause.


Oh and yes your car has a frame. Look under and see for yourself.

 

Agreed. Should not be an issue. Take it somewhere else or bring your lawyer with you next time you are down.

 

eh...Lawyer won't do much, the campaign was voluntary, if it would've been mandatory, they would've done a recall.

 

It is mandatory...i did reserach and mailed a letter to nissan...only thing they dont have to do is make reports and driver lists

 

How did the dealership know that your car has a weak steering knuckle, bad frame, and floor board holes? Did you tell them or did they do a close inspection of your car before writing up the service request? It's hard to believe that they'd do that.

The fuel injector campaign has nothing to do with your car's frame, body, and steering knuckle. The corporation made the decision, not the dealers. It appears that dealer wants to pick and choose which cars they work on. Take it to another Nissan dealer. Don't point out any defects in your car or give them an excuse to reject your car. Tell them that you want only the fuel injector service done and nothing else, thank you.

 

No they look at the car before installing the fuel injectors and said the car is not road legal so they dont have to fix it.

 

belive me its not over i am fixing what there telling me and ill take it back...ill get the car those new fuel injectors...i am just posting this so ppl know that this **** happens and if anyone had the same problem with there recalls...because all z31s were recalled in 1995.

 

Who was the Nissan Dealer?

 

FINEtunedANDtinted: IT IS NOT A RECALL!!!!

Sooo lets see here...They have to fix it but do not have to make quarterly Reports on defect notification campaigns; for providing copies of communications with dealers and purchasers concerning defects; and for maintaining owner lists...sooo huh what? not a recall? There is the facts.

The FI campaign is a voluntary service campaign. campaign is far from recall. compliance is completely within the dealer's choice, if you bitch to nissan, they most likely wont care enough to look into it. just go to a different dealership.

 

I have talk to nissan I have in writing that the dealer must fix the fuel injectors.
They must fix it words from nissan.

 

you missed the entire point of my argument. nissan dealers are "supposed" to replace them, but whether they do, thats up to them.. corporate probably couldnt care less. all they would probaly do is send them a letter saying how bad they are.

 

At work today I was going through all the TSB's on the Z31 and came across the injector campaign letters for the Nissan dealerships. In the letters it said that the Nissan dealers were required to do the service campaign and were also required to use ALL the parts in the kits. I go back to work on Tuesday and would be happy to print copies and post scans of those for you.

 

dont care, your logic is obviously false because that dealership he went to is still not doing the recall that he requested.
