Got mine fixed before it started rusting. Dealer covered it and total cost was under $900!!08 pathy wrote:My 08 rain channels are cracking and rusting the whole length of the truck.
I have heard this is a common problem, just wanted to know if there were anybody here with the same problem and if so have they gotten it fixed... Also I live in florida and truck is garage kept and waxed...
no, mine is out in the open. As for the pillar peeling, nothing. Only issue with paint is the rain channels.cbacarisse wrote:I would think anything paint related would be covered under warranty.
Do you guys cover yours at night?
Congrats! You did better than I did. My '04 (bought new May '05) is peeling all over the top of the liftgate. I'm also a 6 time Nissan owner and told Nissan NA this (didn't give them VINs, but could have). I currently own 2 (an '04 Path and an '06 Path)...anyway - took to local dealer for estimate and "diagnosis" as directed by Nissan NA, turned this info over to Nissan, they responded today (about a week later) that they're "so sorry, but are unable to provide any assistance at this time". The guy sounded like he was reading from a script. It was actually the response I half expected - until he got to the end. He was reading a list of reasons why they were "unable to provide assistance" and his last one was something like: "and Due to your limited service work at the dealership". I stopped him and made him repeat that - I maintain my vehicles RELIGIOUSLY and have done ALL required maintenance with everything at a Nissan dealer other than some routine O/F changes. I also wash and wax regularly. For this guy (without ever seeing the vehicle!) to insinuate that this was due to improper maintenance really ticked me off. At this point Nissan has lost a long-time customer. I'm actually more bummed than angry... (Sorry for the rant and I'm glad to see someone had some success!)Khult wrote:I'm new to the forum. The paint peeled off my gutters down to the primer, no rust. 56K miles. Garage Kept, Waxed, Etc. I called Nissan NA and they good willed a roof painting and gave me a rental for a few days. I did play the 6 time Nissan owner card with VIN#'s.
