Greetings
I would like to bring to the attention of all D40 owners the lack of paint depths and corrosion issues I have on my vehicle and to act now !!!!!!
Please check your roof gullies very carefully as due to the lack of paint applied from factory corrosion may be present and requires urgent attention. Patchy non matching panels with no protection from any so called 'Fall Out' due to no paint depth/protection is also a problem. 'Fall Out' a favorite excuse term for the paintwork faults from Customer Services
I have fought long and hard with the dealers and Nissan Customer Services since February and been given the serious run around. I'm sure most of you have experienced this at some point!
I have not let them get away with this and relentlessly chased.
They have now reluctantly agreed to repaint the roof but refusing to accept any other defective paintwork as warranty despite several independent and Nissan Approved body shops giving them the reason of poor initial paint procedure causing the problem. Lack of / No paint!
I have not let them paint the vehicle's roof as I feel they should not be able to choose to only repair parts of the problem. I would prefer to show the world!
There is a 3 year paintwork warranty and 12 year corrosion warranty. THE PAINTWORK DEFECTS HAD TO HAVE BEEN THERE FROM DAY1 AS MY GULLIES HAVE NO PAINT ON THEM.
They should be brought to task and honour their warranty or better still recall all the vehicles like they do for the other more serious defects, I have seen 6 other Navara D40 's with these paintwork faults.
I am now persuing the case forward as advised with a National Consumer Program and hope to show you all on TV!
I would be interested to see how many other owners out there are upset about the poor quality of paintwork and finish on their vehicles or have any views.
Regards for now and get checking.
