Maryland dealers
I know there have been many posts about which dealers to avoid(Norris) and what shops are good for aftermarket accessories but I am plagued with the Bullsh!t 07 clutch issue and have to take it to a dealer for a warranty repair. Any one had any good experiences with any nissan dealers around maryland, have any connections or have any recommendations? The most important factors to me are that they do good work and dont cut corners, have good customer service and are'nt afraid of a car with light mods. Thanks guys!

you could try Antwerpen in Clarksville. They used to host meets and things for us and are supposed to be "mod friendly". Don't know if they still are but im sure others will chime in if that has changed...

I guess that dumb statement from the dealer was before the recall for that problem

By the way Frederick Nissan has a crook of a service writer over there, I think his name is Andy.

Who the Fawk would by a car with a 15k life expectancy on a clutch!!!! Unless your a noob who has never driven a manual before you can easily see 75k miles or more depending on how hard you are on it. And NNA claims to have never heard of the issue although many have complained to them and started paper trails on it. Sorry for the rant it just sucks to see nissan not standing behind their products. Hopefully I will have some luck with Antwerpen out in Clarksville

The Sheehy Nissan in Annapolis is pretty good. They also have a place in Glen Burnie. The annapolis one is a really small dealership (compared to the one in glen burnie) its where i got my car from. They are a nice dealer, and ive never had a problem when i take my car there (besides the crappy "VIP" car washes that result in countless swirl marks but thats understandable). You could give them a call. It is pretty far away from you though.

Took mine to Len Stoler Nissan, screwed my clutch up real bad. I limped in to Altered Atmosphere. They get it straight and then some. I don't mess with the dealers for after market trans and engine work anymore.

I knew my dealer was going to be a ***** about the clutch issue. Had the same exact problems with my 2006 and I just replaced the clutch myself after 17k miles after it totally burnt out due to improper engagement and clutch sticking.
Do yourself a favor and have your clutch dampener removed and flush out your clutch fluid with Motul or other high temp fluids.

Of course I don't take it there for service so I'm good there at least.
