    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    although this is a "recall" its not a national safety recall & as it doesn't come under a "safety recall" its only cosmetic thay don't have to publicize it but have agreed to replace faulty dash's (parts & labor).

    As it turns out 1 in 3 seem to have this issue so I don't think Nissan had a choice.

    The top of the website says Australian Product Safety Recall. Would that have anything to do with it?

    Most of the time this problem didn't occur until thay were way out of warranty which yes meant the pore consumer (in most cases the second owner) copped it but where not talking about the same thing here.

    Howd you go MudRunner?

    Did they just accept it and agreed to fix the bubbles on yours?

    Nah, i called Werribee Nissan service yesterday and they knew nothing about it but it was just the service girl, she took my details and will call me monday. I did the ring around and the only service department that was taking calls on Saturday was Werribee.

    Will let you know monday for sure.

    Well!

    i called Werribee Nissan this afternoon cause they did not call me back.

    The guy laughed at me literally and gave me teh number for Nissan Australia, basically saying good luck with that!! (i was pretty wild getting of the phone)

    Call this Number

    1800 035 035

    I spoke to a lovely lady at Nissan Australia by the name of Ilyana who assured me that there was definitely a Service Campaign for vehicles upto 6 years old. The warranty would not be extended, unlimited Kms.

    The dash will be replaced at no charge to me and she will email Werribee Nissan to advise them to review the Service Campaign.

    I then called back Werribee and spoke to the same bloke, told him who i was and that i was the guy he laughed at, that i was pretty crappy at him for that and that he would be getting an email today regarding the campaign. He apologised for being rude and looked forward to getting the email. He had not heard anything about it..
