mbs Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 I have just been talking to the dealer I bought my 370 from regarding the length of RAC/Nissan breakdown cover I have, I wasn't sure whether it was one or three years. The dealer told me that as long as my car is serviced at the required intervals by a Nissan dealer the cover continues. Good news saves me a few quid a year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The G Man Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Erm...., the dealer may be talking out his erse, or I've read the warranty wrong, therefore I'm talking out mine , but as I read it, it's for the duration of the 3 year warranty. That's not to say that there'll not be some kind of "extended" warranty or, that this particular dealer may be offering a "lifetime" warranty as some sort of incentive. But Nissans is 3yrs cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebized Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Think you find it is only one year unless things have changed since the 2009 models and Nissan have not updated their website: http://www.nissan-aftersales.co.uk/assi ... assistance Sorry But I got a free year extra with my first service Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Just upgrade your Bank account, I get everything with mine, even home start. That's along with mobile insurance home and abroad, card protection worldwide travel insurance (which I actually can't use ) and loads of other stuff too boring to list....

was8v Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 if you buy cover through quidco RAC's basic level of cover effectively costs you £8 for the year. RAC cost is £28, and quidco give you £20 cashback on that so long as you click through from quidco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoff-r Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Who's broken down in their 370 already? Or am I tempting fate asking that question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The G Man Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Think you find it is only one year unless things have changed since the 2009 models and Nissan have not updated their website: http://www.nissan-aftersales.co.uk/assi ... assistance Sorry But I got a free year extra with my first service I'll re-read the warranty book tomorrow, but you may find that things have changed since 2009, even early 2010 (premium connect springs to mind, although that was a spec change, it was a pretty mahoosive one, also the 0% deal etc etc), they change the deal every three months. When I initially read the booklet I wasn't too surprised that I may have found this, mazda did the Assist for the three years of warranty and continued it for free if extended warranty was taken, or £10 per year if not.

The G Man Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Well done mbs, I've just went through the warranty/Euro Assistance booklet and, I am talking through MY erse Thanks for getting the clarification on this, good piece of info that I'll be discussing with the dealer where I bought. Does anyone know then, whether the service info is collated centrally so's that if you require assistance, you don't have to argue that your car has been serviced recently. Oh, one thing the assist booklet does state, if you are on a promotional offer N928, then you get three years cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
350zed Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 If you have any nissan car serviced at a nissan main dealer you will get RAC cover regardless of year unless you turn it down. Its a new thing started last month by nissan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
