Eumenides Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I took a 2006/55 plate 18k mile 350 for a test drive on Sunday and when i got up to 70mph, the passenger window 'dropped' about an inch. The dealer who was with me kept trying to close it, but it was obviously knackered. Is this a common problem, especially at this low mileage? I don't know anything about car dealerships, but i was wondering what happens to used cars, arent they supposed to go through rigorous checks before being sold on again or am i being slightly naive? (This car was being sold by a main Nissan dealer) Cheers all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Yes this is a known fault and yes the dealer should be aware of it. I am on a slow link at the mo but I think if you search tsb you should find something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does Nissan Approved mean: Our skilled technicians carry out a comprehensive appraisal of all vehicles, checking condition, including the interior, lighting and electrics, body, safety systems, coachwork and road test. We then verify the vehicle's mileage and history. On vehicle collection we will always supply confirmation of enquiry certificates to show that it has passed these stringent checks in becoming a Nissan Approved vehicle. Nissan is committed to providing the highest levels of service throughout ownership of an approved vehicle, from a 30 day exchange promise upon purchase, to integrated warranty and motor assistance packages.

3FIDDYZ Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Whats bad to know is if you get a free 30day wtee and then take out an extended wtee they dont give you the 30 days, so take the 30 days and then take out the extended wtee after it as you will have to pay and excess! Also, Nissan dealers arnt linked so if you do get an issue then you need to take it to the original purchase dealer if you have an issue... Saying that I would pay the little bit extra and buy off a dealer again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
