oh..... and i thought i was the only one!!!!!!! hatch has fallen on my head also!! and it hurts!! the stealership told me they wont warrantee the struts because its an added nismo spoiler!! **** them im so tired of the dealership trying to get out of everything under warantee ..... thats why i called up the headquarters and prob got them bit**** out!

i also had my foot rest pedal pop off.. and also the z floor mats get holes in them easy, so i made them replace that.. and the plastic above the mirror when it slides up, taht cracked so i told them to replace it.. also the side pillar was coming off and i had them replace that.. and you know what i deserve anything and everything i tell them to fix!! this car should be perfect for what we pay!!

 

My foot rest fell off too. This car is shoddy construction. My girlfriends pathfinder is the same way. I've lost TONS of respect for nissan build quality lately. I've owned 5 nissans in my life. I think I'm done w/ nissan after this. I love the Z, but if it didn't looks so good and perform so well I would be completely unhappy with this car.

 

I unbolted the stock shocks and then had to cut them off the harnesses that connect to the hatch and body since they are pressure fitted. Took care of that with a hack saw. I bought some new stronger shocks from O'rilies (like Auto Zone) and fit them over the tock harnesses. I reinstalled them and it works great now. New shocks ran $50 for the pair. Much less than the $250+ for the Nismo ones.

 

I went to the dry cleaners today and forgot to hold the hatch when I was putting the clothes in my car. Fooking goddamn thing knocked me into my trunk.

The family in the minivan next to me thought it was hilarious.
