Asked by Des Hughes
I purchased my Nissan Patrol 4.2 turbo-diesel ST Ute new in 2006. Now with 97,000 km on the clock I find the white paint flaking off in patches. Spray painters I have consulted say that it appears the white coat has not adhered to the undercoat. I have kept the ute in very good condition and it is well maintained, cleaned and polished, and has never been pressure sprayed. What are my chances of a claim against Nissan, and whom could I approach about the problem?
Answered by CarsGuide
9 Nov 2012Start with your dealer and ask for a factory representative to inspect the car. If that approach isn't successful go straight to Nissan headquarters in Melbourne and talk directly to the customer assistance people. It would also help if you had a report from a paint specialist that backs your contention about the white topcoat not adhering to the undercoat.
