Power Valve Screw Settlement

[TowndawgR50]

Anyone else get this notice? Looks like those of us that lost motors are now eligible for some money towards repairs due to damage from power valve screws falling out

My buddy got a notice, too. He had his engine replaced for this reason, but might have been just outside that warranty window. He's still looking into it, though.

 

Guessing that's a CA-only settlement, though, as my buddy lives in OC and not SF county. Haven't seen an AZ version here (not that it would apply to me anyway).

Yea, i read that. 12 years or 120k miles. Which ever came first. Thats crap. If the engine failed due to power screws it should be on Nissan, period.

Interesting read. I see their logic for limiting the warranty like that, but yeah, it would be nicer if they could base it on expected lifespan, and also not based on age/mileage at the time of repair/replace. But for those who qualify, it's better than nothing.
