I got my letter in the mail today as well. When I called Power Nissan (Chandler, AZ) they acted like the service recall was new to them. A service manager blew me off and said to call back in a couple of weeks
I'm not sure I should take my car there for service... or ask for a different service manager.

I've had the clutch on my '06 stick in varies positions about 10-12 times since I bought it new 2 years ago, sometimes to the point the clutch burns/smells. Happend the other day on a hard launch trying to slip the clutch.
It only happens when I drive really hard at launches or downshifts with heavy throttle. I'm in no hurry to let those boneheads scratch and or ding my car for a 3rd time.
Don't even want to guess what they would do to the wheels. probably curb'em. No way in hell I'm taking all my underhood stuff out either.
I'd rather keep my pos clutch, drive normally (er) and keep my paint and body parts dent and scratch free, than spend 2 days removing all my stuff I don't want ruined by them.
Tip them? I'd rather shoot all of them.
Think I'll just wait till the ebrake fails for the 2nd time and get all of their mistakes fixed at once.

I thought the same way when I was taking my car in. I couldn't help but worry about the little details they could screw up on. I hate dealerships.
However, I had to take my car in b/c I track my car and I was not able to launch without the pedal sticking to the floor.
When I got my car back, I inspected it thoroughly, and to my surprise I found no dings, curb rash, or anything wrong with the car. I'm happy.

I've had no issues with my clutch yet...since this is voluntary, should I wait i out? or should i get it replaced?
I'm a bit weary about dropping off my car at the dealer too. I understand some really do a good job and take care of the car, but had some pretty bad experiences with my previous car so if i can "wait and see" then I would rather do that....but don't want to all of a sudden experience it and then have Nissan say "ohh too late you should have come when you got the letter"

oh man the server manager is gonna feel it saturday morning. Last time I took my car there at 3000 miles they denied me ofall warranty work because they said its due to my driving style. I told them many times its the fault of slave cylinder but they did not listen.
I will make sure they replace my clutch and flywheel at no charge.

mine came in the mail today... I'll let them keep it for a couple of days next week, maybe I'll get lucky and they can reproduce the "sputtering" issue also.
