Look kookaburra, Of Course, Nissan does not warrant anything in their vehicles. Just ask me I will tell you.

Is that 80km or 80 000km? If it is 80km as written then there are some big issues there and surprised Nissan wouldn't warranty that? If it is 80 000km I would be surprised if any manufacturer would cover the clutch after 80 000km?

whyallacookie,

I agree and as I said, you would be very lucky to find any car manufacturer that would cover a clutch after 80000km.........Maybe if the km where a lot less....

80 000 K's for a truck is about 160 days...less than half a year...not very good value, I would say.

To be honest bit hard a call after 80.000 klms he wants a new clutch ... whats his warranty say, and no offence meant .... but nissen only has his word how he drives.

I do understand the grief and $$$ it will be to replace the clutch and I will also say 80000 is not a lot of klm and I would also have expected a lot lot more.

I would have also expected some warning signs that something was amiss with the clutch and not just destroy itself all of a sudden.

Personally from all accounts nissen and warranty are not something used in the same sentence from what i have read hereabouts. From all the bad reports I have heard about nissen I have no intention of ever owning one, which is a shame as there are i'm sure many that don't have problems but I personally would not take the risk.

Hope all works out.

Brian
