Dealer service question

jpar · Postby **jpar** » Thu Feb 03, 2011 3:02 pm

I'm going to the dealer for the first time next week for the IPDM relay recall. Will they give me the full dealer service history if I ask? I just bought mine back in the fall and have no idea what work has been done on it.

Not sure if Nissan's service history records are connected or not, but your particular dealer should be willing to give you a history of what they have personally done to that vehicle. If the previous owner went to a different dealer or a private shop, you could be missing some information.

I think all dealers are linked as long as it is serviced in the same country. But, doesn't hurt to ask.

A Joe Blow shop will definitely will not share records with other shops.

Get a carfax.

you will be able to get a full history of any warranty work done at any dealer.

Dealers are not linked for non-warranty/customer pay work unless they're owned by the same owners.

newer privacy laws also restrict the sharing of info to some extent

Alisojh is right about getting a car fax. If you know that the service was done at the same dealer you're taking it to, yes they will have the history, but a Carfax is the best way to got. It had all 17 or 18 maintenance intervals on it. It all matched the papers in the glove compartment.
