To again reference the Carerra GT, a brake job on that sucker with new rotors and pads + labor is damn close to $20K so that may or may not be true.

They should flat out say that the ------- trans has no warranty unless the problem is clearly identified as engineering or manufacturing defect. If they did that, they would lose about 90% of the customers out there, but Big business always try to find a way to screw the little guys. Dont get me wrong, Nissan needs to be able to protect themselves as well, but they shouldn't do it by throwing in fine print.

Yeah but 20 thousand clams is still excessive for a trans, even if it is destroyed and hanging out of the back of the car like a mean turtle head. That is just sodomy. That guy should buy a new tranny assembly and pay me to put it in, then pay Scottie to stab the CEO of Nissan in the face with a hot curling iron.
