Wish I could delete that message. On occasion my anger at Nissan gets the better of me. Unfortunately this site doesn't let you delete your own posts..which is too bad.

Keilse, I would certainly like to get that information. I've already spoken to someone at Nissan USA and they decided that it was not their fault, therefore, they will not be providing any assistance. I've already asked to get that in writing just in case I decide to pursue this legally.

fedfuzz...I have two names for you to contact...(Unfortunately, I am having problems finding the email addresses, but the names and proper addresses for mailing will also work.....)
Fred Standish - Director of Corporate Communications
Nissan North America, Inc
P.O. Box 685003
Franklin, TN 37067-5003
800-647-7261
Lanae Burton
Executive Specialist - (Works for Fred Standish)
I emailed Fred Standish directly and Lanae was the person that responded and was assigned my case from start to finish. I think my Dad may still have the email and phone numbers for these two, so let me check and I will shoot them to you. If you mail a letter to Fred, he will respond by having Ms. Burton contact you directly. The initial response will be a flat denial of all accountability, but the more tenacious and organized you are with documenting the facts of your case, diplomatically, you know non-threatening, other than the threat of legal action...the more they will want you gone so bad they will pay you. I got the first $8,000 on my own with Lanae's help, and then I got a Lemon Law Lawyer that got me the other $5,000. Nissan didn't even care that they had already paid me AND replaced my engine and cats on their dime...because they'd have had to pay me well over $80,000 if they had decided to go to court and lost...so another $5,000 was nothing. It took a year, and my Nissan sat, with the new engine and cats, parked the whole time, and I bought a Toyota instead. I will work on the email addresses and phone numbers for you but do keep me posted.
Good luck,
Sara

I'm having the same issue with my 2002 Altima. This the 2nd time I replaced this catalytic Convertor  . I replaced it in 2006 and now they telling me today, I need to replace it again along with a new engine. The total cost of this will be $3700. I'm so unsure if its worth fixing or just investing in a new car. I was looking over the blogs and people are having the same issues and after they fix it, more problems are occuring. I currently have 149k miles on my car and counting. What do you think?

Honestly Casper....I say dump the car. If you don't dump it, then change the exhaust hjeaders and the cats and sell it. It's only a matter of time before your engine is ruined. Either that, or contact the people I gave to fedfuzz in my last post. The problem's only going to continue - on that you can be certain...and my friend this I can GUARANTEE...having been through it SIX times myself. It's got too many miles to pursue the Lemon Law - at least realistically - and battling with Nissan like fedfuzz might be is always an option...but it takes a lot of time and who knows if that will pan out? Make the car run - legally - if you don't live in CA you will have a much easier time of this - and sell it. I am changing my exhaust headers and this puts my cats in a different place...(I have to replace the cats after the headers-I hollowed out all my pipes and removed the cats because they showed signs of the same prob AGAIN) . The car runs a little loud, and it smells like crap currently, but tell you what, it gets better mileage than ever, and it's got more speed....as soon as the headers and cats are replaced she's going to be a screamer....and then I am selling it. I have 125,000 miles on it, and even at that mileage she's still blue booked at just over $6,000. So I will make her healthy and legal and DUMP her, take the cash, fix my toyota tranny, and move the hell on. Good luck to you...I will help you if I can! Sara

tough call casper. 3700 isn't going to buy you much car if you go that route. if you do the repairs, at a minimum you'll have a car with a new motor. a 3700 car will probably either be a POS along the lines of a focus or neon or a decent car with 200k miles on it and the motor.

Sorry about that...I forgot. Got any suggestions as to how I can get fedfuzz the phone number and email I promised him without breaking the rules?

Either of you could make your email address public in your profile so that you could contact each other that way. A "public" email address in a profile is only available to logged in members so the spambots cannot get to it. And of course you wouldn't need to leave it public beyond getting in touch with each other if you didn't want to do so.
Hope this helps!
