Nissan Care Warranty Value

[Gel]

Nissan Care Warranty ValueAny views on whether this represents value? Price sheet I have is badly written IMO:ie for Qashqai £259 inc vat."Provides protection for up to 3 additional years on top of New Vehicle warranty".Well on basis of latter being 3, that's 3+3 then? Probably Not as lower down price sheet states "Prices above are for 1 Year Nissan Car Care Warranty.Any views appreciated.

It's insurance and as with any insurance you take your chance... Bottom line is that the Insurance companies never lose out. So you need to know how reliable Nissan cars are and especially how reliable are they after the manufacturers warranty runs out. The answer is very of course and if I pluck a figure out of the air so reliable that the average repair bill under warranty will be be in the region of £10.00 for the 500,000 cars they sell - the problem is that you might just be one of those with the £550 repair bill for whatever! Mind you given the stated reliability of Nissan cars you may well be able to argue with the help of your local trading standards, that Nissan are liable for the cost as they cannot hide behind an arbitrary 1 year warranty - anyone feel like arguing with Nissan? If not pay up and sleep easy.

Gel, I tend to agree with PeterL. When we ordered our QQ we were given an extra years Nissan 5* Guarantee as stated a "Loyalty Bonus". We have had a 06 Micra / have a 08 Note / have a 11 Juke and all if any Problems were corrected by the Dealer without problems at no cost. For example this week we had a new battery fitted in the Juke two weeks inside the end of the Guarantee Period without Problems. We have found all of our Nissans extremely reliable and have never been let down. OK the battery was something I knew was near death but this was not a Nissan Product as we asked for a higher capacity one to be installed when new as we had a Webasto Stand Heating System installed - Dave
