I haven't been near a dealer in years, don't know how they even knew my address. I haven't read it yet but opened it up and it is definitely the recall notice.
Possibly rego office?Quote:

I got the letter last week for my '06 GUIV. However it only says passenger side. Due to a fault moisture may get in and deteriorate the propellant leading to abnormal deployment, but i'm guessing everyone already knew that lol. The point of interest in my letter is that it says "Due to large demand our expectation is that replacement parts will be available in Australia in early Feb 2016".
Is this a myth considering a bunch of you have already had it fixed by Nissan?
My letter says March

haha bugger! thanks anyways mate!Quote:

Do we have to chase this up or do they look us up through motor reg or something and get in touch with us?
They look us up through motor reg, no need to do anything.Quote:

The system handles all safety recalls, police licence and registration checks etc. it's a national system and no longer state based.

For a safety recall the maker supplies the VIN range and the application supplies the registered owner details.
System has probably been improved since I worked on it but it's a nifty application.
Just got my recall letter again telling me parts are in and ready to book the car in. Going there today to discuss possibility of replacing the bubble dash while at it... Wasting my time I know ...
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...id=64780&stc=1
Let me know how you go..
Many say to get the dash re apolsted is around the $700 mark..
Nissan are only willing to cover 50% of the dash so that's still $1000...
I called Nissan a few weeks ago regarding my bubbling dash in anticipation of them recalling my car for the airbag (April date). They fobbed me off and said there was no recall for the dash so they couldn't help.
If they do remove the dash then it might be a good idea if I get them to change it.
Does anyone know if they have changed the material on the dash from that cr@ppy rubber to something more durable? If its the same material then I'll probably keep mine and hide it under the dash mat. I sort of remember reading somewhere that they replaced the originals with a plastic unit but I am not really sure if that's correct.
I have had mine replaced and the material did not seem any different.Quote:

Received my letter the other week and booked the it in for a couple weeks time. Service guy said it would only take an hour to complete - has anyone else had theirs done, how long did it take? Trying to work out if I just hang around and wait or arrange a lift home...

When my 3L went in mate, they wanted the car all day. Not sure whether the actual job took ALL day, but yeah.
Nissan replaced my air bag last Friday. I took the car in at 11am as requested. I waited around for the job to be done. At 11.30am they moved the Patrol into the service centre and it was completed by 12.30pm. So it's an hours job to do but depends on what else they have scheduled.
I had mine done several weeks ago, service tech did it outside the workshop so I had prime time view how it is done. It took him 35 mins to complete the actual replacement and then the car just sat there for another 50 mins unattended.Quote:

What confused the technician on my truck was when he went to power the system and start the engine the glow light stayed on (I rewired it that way so it stays on when glow is on) so he went to tell his superiors and left it for the next clown to check, scratch his head and then give up....really funny to watch.
They would normally tell you 1.5 hour for the job if you're waiting for it.

OK still waiting for a letter or would I be better off going to Nissan Airport West
and ask what the procedure is????
Maybe yours wasn't affected John. ?
