The G Man Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 As the title suggests, anyone with a 370 who's had this can you please put your name down on this list. I believe, from what I've read on here so far that it seems a pretty common fault in the US. But is it a common one on this side of the pond? I believe that it might well be. I know there is a possible preventative fix as listed on another thread and that there are a few who have had this happen to their car, but if there is enough evidence then perhaps it may prompt Nissan to do something about it, if presented in the correct way with perhaps some sort of official (trading standards or similar?) help. This may especially help those who have no warranty left on their car. Can't do any harm. Can you also put down how old the car was when it happened and when it happened, which dealer sorted it and/or what the dealers/Nissan response was. 1. The G Man, MY10 (60 plate), Dec 2012, Parks of Hamilton, fixed under warranty.

Ebized Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Pinned this now and can we ask any 370 owner has had the lock replaced please add their name to the list as the it was the recorded numbers in the US that led to the recall there so the more ammunition we can muster on here the better
Will370z Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 With much frustration but knowledge that it was inevitable i must now add my name to this list. Rosie is officially dead. Warranty ran out yesterday, almost comical isnt it. This will be fun, got to get the car from hereford to aldershot. 1.
