WTF

I don't understand. What's the problem?

No letter for me, but Mike and the boys did the recall for me while my truck was in there last week.

Love your new rating Gino. LMAO

So I got my letter in the mail today. I think it came last week, but I hadn't checked my mail box in a week, so...

Anyways, now that a few of these have been taken care of, I'm curious still about how some of the more modified rigs are being treated?

Worse come to worse, I will just take my truck in and see what they have to say. I'm still concerned about the fact that I have a body lift on my truck.

Mike, you guys have taken care of a few of these now, right? Thoughts?

Maybe you could just get the new part.

Haven't done a lifted one yet... Mine will be the first, as soon as I can find some shop time.

I have a question, I am not the original owner of my X and did not purchase it through Nissan how will I know if mine is part of the recall?

Well, this one is a brand new recall, so unless you purchased your truck within the last 3 months or so, it likely hasn't been done.

You can also call your local dealership and have them verify your VIN to see what recall work has been completed.

Thanks Jayman, I called in December and they said there were no outstanding recalls but I will call again, is there any way to get on the Nissan mailing list?

Yeah - a whole bunch of ways. Best way is to fill out the damn form they give you when you go into the shop. Be forewarned - this means sales guys will call you, stuff will come in the mail - at least for a while. Then they seem to settle down. Guelph Nissan called me every three weeks or so a couple years back simply because I bought some parts... It was quite disheartening having to tell the sales guy over and over that I had no interest in selling the truck...

Thanks Geoffrey, I have not been to a Nissan dealer for service so I will look into that.

Turned out after VIN # verification last saturday that my X was under recall steering shaft was replaced yesterday with no questions asked no body lift though.

I talked to a dealer yesterday and they confirmed I mine was under recall but said the part is on back order and asked me to call back in a week or two.

I've got 6 instock.

No issues with the lift, did mine no problem.

The only spot that may cause issues, is if you've done some kind of custom gap guard.

Morpheus if you still have one around this Monday I would make the trek out there.

should have, call or pm near the end of the week and I'll make sure.

Called the dealership on Fri. and gettner done on Wed. morn. 9am. Aprox. 1 hr. job.

Done in 45 min. Anybody have a diagram of the part they could post. Just curious.

I would just look at the steering column and look for the shiny part.... That should let you know what they did.

Unless I don't understand your ?
