4 Catalytic Convertor problem of the 2003 Nissan Murano

Failure Date: 09/06/2007

2 weeks after the 60,000 service (at 63,500 k)I had my catalytic converter replaced. At that time, the dealer said I needed the transfer case seal replaced ($800). That was not the real problem, the bearings were defective- I need a new transfer case (rebuild $900). But no parts are available so need to buy new transfer case from Nissan ($2500). Definitely a 2003 Murano manufacture defect.
