Re: 2008 SE-R RECALL INFORMATION

If anyone hasn't had their Master Brake Cylinder's checked yet, DO SO.  Our's was one that was bad and their another Spec V at our local dealer that is bad and we just found out today that the parts are not released yet and Nissan doesn't know when they will be released.  They haven't set a date or anything.  So, our service guy just told us that, not only are we having to get a new engine because of our #3 cylinder being bad, that we are getting a new engine which hasn't been approved by Nissan yet, either.  So, it will take them about 3 months to fix our car.  smiley-sad  I miss my baby. smiley-baby  At least we get a free rental out of the deal.  smiley-wink

Re: 2008 SE-R RECALL INFORMATION

I had the brake light come on and read the related threads and took my SE-R in asap.
MC is leaking on mine, but there on none in stock, at the dealership or otherwise.  So, my service manager tops off the brake system and gives me the green light to drive the SE-R until the replacement MC comes in.  That was 2 weeks ago. 
I think Nissan is playing with fire on this one.  One accident that involves a braking issue and they are screwed, especially with service managers returning cars to owners without replacement and telling them the car is safe to drive.
