NISSAN CARES...
Both Nissan and your Nissan dealer are dedicated to
serving all your automotive needs. Your complete satis-
faction with your vehicle and your Nissan dealer are our
primary concerns. Your Nissan dealer is always avail-
able to assist you with all your automobile service re-
quirements.
If, however, a situation arises that you believe has not
been addressed to your satisfaction, we ask that you
take the following steps:
STEP 1:
Discuss the situation with the dealership’s manager. If a
problem still exists, contact the dealership’s Consumer
Affairs Manager or owner. They are best equipped to
resolve the matter for you.
STEP 2:
If the concern has still not been addressed to your
satisfaction, please contact our (Nissan’s) Consumer
Affairs Department using our toll free number:
The Consumer Affairs Department will ask for the fol-
lowing information:
Your name, address, and telephone numberVehicle identification number (on dashboard)Date of purchaseCurrent odometer readingYour Nissan dealer’s nameDetails of the concernOr you can write to Nissan with the above information
at:
Nissan North America, Inc.
Consumer Affairs Department
P.O. Box 685003
Franklin, TN 37068-5003
STEP 3:
In the event that you believe Nissan has been unable to
satisfactorily address the issue with your vehicle, a
special automotive complaint resolution program called
BBB AUTO LINE is available to you. The BBB AUTO
LINE program is independently operated by the Council
of Better Business Bureaus, Inc. (BBB) .
For information about the BBB AUTO LINE in your area,
please call us (Nissan) at the same toll free number
1-800-NISSAN-1 (1-800-647-7261) . We will be
happy to provide you with information about BBB AUTO
LINE. Or, you may contact the BBB directly at:
BBB Auto Line
Council of Better Business Bureaus, Inc.
4200 Wilson Blvd.
Arlington, VA 22203
1 (800) 955-5100
If you call the BBB, its staff will take down details of your
complaint by telephone. They will ask for the same
information as described in Step 2.
The BBB AUTO LINE program consists of two parts,
mediation
andarbitration. The BBB will attempt to
assist you to resolve the problem during mediation. If a
satisfactory resolution has not been achieved during
mediation, you will have the opportunity to personally
present your case before an impartial arbitrator or three-
person panel. The arbitrator(s) will make a decision after
the arbitration hearing.
The BBB will, in most cases, send you a final decision
within forty (40) days (plus 7 if you have not contacted
the proper person from the dealership or Nissan) unless
you delay the process. If you accept the decision, it will
be legally binding on you and Nissan. If you do not
accept the decision, it will not be legally binding on you
or Nissan. However in some states, if the decision is not
accepted, it may be introduced either by you or by
Nissan, as evidence in any potentially related court
action.

Nissan2warrants your Genuine Nissan Replacement
Battery as described below except as stated under
What is not covered?
This warranty covers defects in materials and workman-
ship.
HOW LONG IS THE WARRANTY AND
WHAT WILL NISSAN DO
If your battery becomes unserviceable within the first 24
months of service Nissan will replace your battery, in-
cluding labor, without charge, providing the battery was
originally installed in your vehicle by an authorized
Nissan dealer.
If the battery becomes unserviceable after 24 months of
use, Nissan will provide a replacement battery at a
reduced price, charging only for the portion of the life of
the battery actually used. This is called a pro-rata
adjustment. You will be responsible for all labor
charges for the replacement of the battery.
This warranty and the pro-rata adjustmentend 84
months after the date of the battery’s purchase or
installation, whichever is earlier. However, the warranty
on a Genuine Nissan replacement battery installed dur-
ing the Nissan New Vehicle Limited Warranty will extend
through, and will not end before, the end of that original
warranty.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED?
This warranty does not cover:
1. Damage or failure resulting from:
Accident, theft, fire or freezing.Misuse of the battery or vehicle in which it is
installed, including the use in applications for
which the battery was not designed. Proper use is
described in the vehicles OWNER’S MANUAL.
Improper installation or battery charging.Vehicle electrical malfunctions not covered by
your New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Modification or improper repair of the vehicle or a
part of the vehicle.
Use of parts not equivalent in quality or design to
parts supplied by Nissan.
Environmental conditions, including, but not lim-
ited to flood, and salt spray or salt water.
2. Normal maintenance service and recharging of dis- charged batteries.
3. Batteries in service more than 84 months.
4.
Salvage Title. This warranty does not cover damage,
failure, or corrosion to any Genuine Nissan battery
installed in the vehicle, if the vehicle is issued a
salvage or similar title under any state’s law, and
this warranty is rendered void for any battery installed
in a vehicle prior to the vehicle being issued a sal-
vage or similar title unless state law expressly states
otherwise. (This exclusion does not extend to a new Genuine Nissan battery installed in the vehicle after
the issuance of a
salvageor similar title) .
WHAT YOU MUST DO
In order to obtain warranty service, you must deliver the
warranted battery or the vehicle in which the battery is
installed to an authorized Nissan dealer in the U.S. or
Canada at your expense, with proof of purchase (parts
invoice or service repair order from an authorized
Nissan dealer) . The names and addresses of authorized
Nissan dealers are listed in telephone directories or
www.NissanUSA.com
If thepro-rata adjustment applies, you must pay for the
portion of the 84 month warrantable life that you actually
used. The amount you pay is computed in two steps.
First, the customer pay percentage is determined from
the chart shown below based upon the months of actual
battery service.
Months Customer Pay
In ServicePercentage0-24 0%
25-32 25%
33-50 50%
51-84 75%
Second, the current suggested retail price of the new
battery is multiplied by the customer pay percentage.
For example, should the battery fail after 40 months of
service you would pay 50% of the suggested retail price
of the new battery.
(Continued on next page)1 Actual warranty is provided by the dealer at time of purchase and should be read carefully. This warranty is subject to change and the applicable warranty will be that which is in effect on
the date of purchase.
