Maintain Your InvestmentPreventative scheduled maintenance is an important investment to
optimize the performance, reliability, durability, safety and resale value of
your Nissan. Scheduling your vehicle’s maintenance at the
recommended intervals will ensure your vehicle is running at its best.
We want you to enjoy your Nissan vehicle. This Service and
Maintenance Guide is designed to help you make sure your vehicle
receives proper and timely maintenance that is necessary. Key services
are explained in detail, along with an outline of scheduled maintenance
to help you maintain your vehicle. Your local Nissan dealer can assist
you in determining the best schedule based on your driving habits and
local conditions.
Failure to perform scheduled maintenance may result in a denial of a
warranty coverage and may reduce the performance, safety, reliability,
durability and/or resale value of your vehicle. See your Warranty
Information Booklet and Owner’s Manual for details.NISSAN MAINTENANCE

If you have an accident, insist on Genuine Nissan Collision
Parts. If you want your vehicle to be restored using parts
made to Nissan’s original exacting specifications – if you
want it to last, help to protect your personal safety and to
help hold its resale value, the solution is simple. Tell your
insurance agent and your repair shop to use only Genuine
Nissan Collision Parts.
Many non-genuine parts are copies made from impres-
sions of Nissan parts and may not match the specifica-
tions and performance standards of Genuine Nissan
Parts. As a result, non-genuine parts may not look or fit
right, and may be less safe.
The hood on your vehicle is a good example. Nissan
designed it with hood buckling creases to help prevent the
hood from penetrating the interior of your vehicle in an
accident. Non-genuine parts may not provide such built-in
safeguards.
In some states, the law says you must be advised if
non-genuine parts are used to repair your vehicle.Why
should you take a chance?
Replacement Panel Limited Lifetime
Corrosion Warranty*If you have your collision damage repaired using Genuine
Nissan Outer Sheet Metal Panels you don’t have to worry
about corrosion. That’s because these panels are war-
ranted against inside out rust-through perforation for as
long as you own your Nissan. Another reason to insist on
Genuine Nissan Collision Repair Parts.
* This warranty does not apply to vehicles or parts not distributed by Nissan North America and/or sold outside the United States.GENUINE NISSAN COLLISION PARTS
