I was having oil consumption issues with my 03 touring. I took it to a local Nissan dealership where they replaced the motor under warranty . Overall I was fairly satisfied with the service, it took 3 days, as oppose to the quoted 1 day, but no big deal as I have the ability to work from home.

However, I got the car back Thursday, while waxing the car on Saturday (service center was closed) I noticed they curbed my front bumper and wheel pretty bad. Given I already drove off the lot and did not notice it, do I have any recourse or am I SOL?

Any advice is appreciated.

 

Show up - Flip out and demand some $$$.

 

Go directly to sevice manager calm and collective, if that does not work flip out

 

Just flip out and make a big scene. Being nice never works.

 

May I ask how much oil you were burnnin in between oil changes and how many miles were on your car?

 

^^51000 miles on the car - burning 3 quarts every 1500 miles!!!!!

 

Actually just go with Ethan's plan, make the biggest scene possible, usually they will do what it takes to shut you up

 

Little.

 

Always act nice at first, then get pissed, thats what I do. Normally works for me too. It all depends on the person though.

 

I think you need to take the service manager outside and scrape his
face against the curb - ask him how it feels, and then ask nicely for
a fiscal solution to your issue. JK... Kinda, you will lkely accomplish
the most with the manager in seclusion. They tend to act ballsy around
staff...

 

Oh yea, go to the dealership with Bigslim350z and Eric the Ricer, I'm sure that'd help the situation.

 

I agree with David you have very little chance of having anything done for you.

 

no

go there with Mondi and 350ricky. that oughtta show them!

 

Riiiiiiiiight. Attack of the little people.............

 

You have VERY little, if any, recourse. You drove off the lot. Your best chance is to speak calmly and directly and you'll be lucky if you get anything. Flipping out will get you know where...but go for it if you want. Just don't be surprised if 1.they laugh at you and or 2. they escort you off the property/call the cops on you.

 

Bring me and I can kung fu and chop suey their butts if they say no... If not, I will sleep with their daughters =)

 

Buddy have I got a ****ed up car for you... Their work is warranted, its a goddamn dealership. Yes, that includes damage done on-site. Go get your
car fixed. You have tons of recourse,,, if you act the part.

 

Not sure how the dealerships are in Florida, but here in Mid-A the dealerships aren't so easy to deal with. We call them "Stealerships" for a good reason.

 

Here's to thoroughly inspecting my rims and body panels before even starting the car if I ever take it in for service in the future... sucks man, hope you get this BS worked out.
