Consumer Description

Engine threw a main bearing around 80 thousand miles in 2023, car was not modified other than different muffler on the back and aftermarket wheels and tires which has nothing to do with the engine. Car had oil changes every 3500-4500 miles with MOTUL full synthetic oil. No engines lights were given, car was taken to a Nissan dealership as manufacturer warranty was expired, my extended warranty was fidelity and they declined due to these aftermarket “changes” dealership gave me a quote over 25k dollars which is what I paid for the car in 2019. I understand it’s a luxury brand but these engines are well known for these issues and nothing is done other than some warranty extension for failing turbos which are also terrible and I believe to be the CAUSE of this thrown bearing, I have owned so many Nissans and will most likely never own another after this mistake. Still love the car but the people that buy these deserve better for the cost. The car is currently sitting in a garage because the cost is absurd.
