Booked in not yet checked. I also have three spares but Nissan tell me these not covered by the recall. Dealer wants ÂŁ220 to check these and will not warranty that they are safe, so that's ÂŁ400 down the pan then And this is a safety recall, As usual **** customer care and PR by Nissan. same as last 3 years of clutch discussions, Never again, Never had so much trouble with any vehicle in 40 years of motoring.

Ok just got the Nav back. Air conditioning had been turned on, air vents moved out of position,
Rear seat arm lowered, 4wd been selected.

Furthermore wheels have been cleaned in places looks a mess
As if you have tried to clean your wheels and given up half way through.

Nissan have you checked my wheels or messed with my motor?

As the rep returned the keys a series of questions were asked,

Do you usually drive empty/ half ladened / full ladened.
Do you usually drive motorways, urban, unurban.

He then said Nissan would send a letter.

This is a farce. And the new wheels look puny.

So mine went into Polesworth garage (Tamworth) for it's check. Told 8 am got there for 7.50, went threw their doors and 8.30 and came out and 9.30 :? Had it cleaned the previous day, wheels came out dirty and not how they went in!! Also pointed out to the service manager that the wheel weights had come off :shock: His reply 'probably find non were fitted', now I may be wrong here but I've never known any wheel not have a weight on, not original tyres and could clearly see where they were fitted and had cum away, still sticky!!!

I got (after he disappeared for awhile) i've checked the wheel wash area and there isn't anything there, if they were fitted they would be there!!! Never even had any safety questions asked as to loads, use etc!

So to my local tyre place and 33 quid later wheels re-balanced and at least ready for it's trip abroad!! Complaint into Nissan GB but know that will do no good :x Hope you get better service with yours.

ps best of it was the motor went into 'limp mode' twice on the way there - maybe it knew what it was in for :shock:
