My truck broke the front axle this past weekend. I am asking for any of you that have had this problem in the past to post a copy of your work order showing your truck fixed. This could help me and others with the fight with Nissan. If you can't post it you can also scan it and email it to me.

Thanks Matt

What kind of craziness were you doing to break your whole front axle!?

He doesn't have to be doing anything crazy to blow a front diff.

I can't give you the work order, but I can tell you that I got my front and rear diff replaced at Pittsburgh East Nissan in Monroeville (wilkins), PA.

Is your dealer denying the warranty?

 

[super6turbo4]

The first one did and now the second one is sending pictures to corporate to find out if they will warranty it. I am just trying to get my ducks in a row. A thread on the web doesn't do much good but work orders from repaired trucks will.

 

[Muzikman]

What is their reason for denying the warranty?

 

[super6turbo4]

Aftermarket suspension components. At this time it only has TC UCA and blocks in the rear and stock wheels and tires.

 

[Muzikman]

And did they give you a reason why the TC UCA's caused the problem?

 

[super6turbo4]

I wish. I tried to explain to them that the only part of the axle that takes load from suspension angle is the CV joint not the splined end in the diff. It was as if I was talking to this computer.

 

[Muzikman]

Tell them you want in writing their reason for denying the warranty claim and tell them you want it detailed on how the aftermarket parts caused the failure.

This is your right and demanding this has actually helped a few people get their diffs covered.

"not the splined end in the diff"
Is that where it snapped?

 

[super6turbo4]

I would have asked for that at the first dealer but my temper got the best of me and I lost my sh!t. Had I not left with my truck I would more than likely have more problems than a broken truck. I am trying to keep a level head this time around.

DBAX Yes the end of the axle broke off inside the spider gear in the diff.

That's how mine went.. I'm going to PM you all my pics, hopefully they'll assist.

Thanks in advance. If it will not work by PM you could email them to me. My email should be under my profile.

Those of you that have had yours fixed can call the dealer to get a copy of the work order if you don't have it. If we can post them some how it would not only help me now but others later. I am getting the feeling that Nissan is trying to crack down on the warranty end. First Lloyd, now me.

Discussed the case with my lawyer today. We are going to find out if Nissan wants to make an example. We decided discovery will cost them 50-100,000 and require an entire staff of a legal firm....I LOVE this stuff :colors:

 

[cincinnati_xterra]

But how much is this costoing you? A lot of companies just keep things like this in court and hope the person runs out of money.

Just for the record, my truck is now in the shop for it's second, count it, second front diff replacement.

Can you scan the work orders from the two replacements and send them to me or post them. If you don't have the first one the dealer can print you a copy. If people send them to me I will keep them for the next person who has a hard time getting theirs fixed and will give it to them to help the fight.
