Nissan Frontier 2005 - 27,000 miles
clutch and flywheel went out
Nissan dealership here on kauai said that it was due to "driver error" and not covered under warranty - wanted to charge me $1700 to fix
I have been driving standard shift cars for 30 years and never had a clutch go out on me. I took the truck to another mechanic who said a. He got several different stories from the Nissan mechanics, b. In his opinion Nissan had never taken the clutch apart to look at it therefore how could they tell it was driver error and c. In his opinion the materials used to make the truck were too soft. How can I get Nissan to admit that this was a factory defect and pay for repairs?.

Vehicle isn't accelerating into gears. Consumer took vehicle to dealer to have clutch checked, and although they did nothing to vehicle it seemed worse. Consumer had just exited onto highway, and vehicle would only get up to 20mph. It took vehicle 3-4 minutes to get up to 50mph. Dealer blamed consumer for constantly wearing clutch.
