Consumer Description

MY 2006 NISSAN 350Z WAS PURCHASED WITH 21,000 MILES IN AUG OF 2007 AND I NOTICED THE ENGINE WAS CONSUMING ALOT OF OIL. I TOOK IT INTO NISSAN OF DOWNTOWN LA AND THEY ADVISED ME THAT MY YEAR AND MODEL HAS THIS ISSUE AND ORDERED A NEW ENGINE. IN NOV OF 2007 I CALLED NISSAN TO COMPLAIN THAT I HAD NOT GOT A NEW ENGINE AS YET AND THEY ADVISED ME THAT A REP WOULD CONTACT ME. AFTER SPEAKING WITH THE REP (RIKKI) I GOT MY NEW ENGINE WITHIN A WEEK AND IT WAS INSTALLED. BUT THE CAR WAS NOT RUNNING PROPERLY AND WAS VERY SLUGGISH. AFTER 3 VISITS TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY LOOKED INTO THE MATTER AND ADVISED ME THAT THEY MADE AN ERROR WHEN THEY INSTALLED IT. THE NISSAN REP RIKKI PROMISED THAT I WOULD GET 2000 FOR MY TROUBLES. NOW I GET NO RETURN CALLS OR ANYTHING. THIS IS NOT SAFE! NISSAN SHOULD NOT BE SELLING CARS WITH ENGINE ISSUES AND WHEN THEY DO REPAIR IT, IT SHOULD BE DONE PROPERLY! *TR
