    Got mine done 12 mths ago after a lot of tooling and fro-ing and getting consumer affairs involved, I sent the paperwork I used to a few people but they didnt have any luck. I still think if everyone got together chipped in a couple of bucks for a lawyer you would get them done as my info was the dash is not fit for purpose!

    I have a 2007 Patrol with the bubbling blistering dash. It is 13 days out of the now 6 year warranty period Nissan are offering on the dash. It was only noticed after the windscreen was replaced as the fault was covered by the dash mat (ironically purchased to protect the dash). I rang the dealer to see if they would replace it and was told that even though it was a little over the warranty they were sure "it wouldn't be a problem" however Nissan knocked my claim back. I then rang Nissan myself and was confronted with a most unsympathetic male who was very unhelpful and told me Nissan would not assist me. I had been happy with the vehicle up until then and was looking to trade in for a new model but now I will be visiting the Toyota dealer. I think Nissan are very short sighted with this matter. They did not issue any recall or advertise (at least I didn't see any). It has always been serviced at the local dealer and they didn't draw my attention to it either even though they would have received a bulletin from Nissan notifying dealers of the issue. I have taken the issue up with the WA Dept of Commerce so we'll see where that takes us, but it's a shame it has to go that way.

    Your dealer was under direction via an internal Service Campaign to order and replace any affected dashes that came through their workshop.

    Hit up your dealer! They let you down and THEY OWN YOUR PROBLEM NOW!

    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.

    Hey, has anyone got a cheaper avenue to buy a dash pad other than retail through Nissan?
    2005 st-l I just bought is shocking, and out of the recall date, sorry, service campaign

    My recently acquired 2009 GU has the dash bubbles that was never fixed by the previous owner. My local Ferntree Gully Nissan have said they will cover the costs to replace the dash but I've gotta cover the $500 labour costs. Anyone had luck pushing this through with Nissan recently? Any suggestions on who best to deal with to get it fixed?

    It should be totally covered if less than 6 years old, i got mine done last year and did not have to pay anything.
    Try ringing another dealer.
