Can NISSAN MURANO 2004 1.G Owners Manual

Insist on the use of Genuine Nissan
Collision Parts!If you want your vehicle to be restored using
parts made to Nissan’s original exacting speci-
fications — if you want to help it to last and hold
its resale value, the solution is simple.Tell your
insurance agent and your repair shop to
only use Genuine Nissan Collision Parts.
Nissan does not warrant non-Nissan parts, nor
does Nissan’s warranty apply to damage caused
by a non-genuine part.
Using Genuine Nissan Parts can help protect
your personal safety, preserve your warranty
protection and maintain the resale value of your
vehicle. And if your vehicle was leased, using
Genuine Nissan Parts may prevent or limit un-
necessary excess wear and tear expenses at the
end of your lease.
Nissan designs its hoods with crumple zones to
minimize the risk that the hood will penetrate the
windshield of your vehicle in an accident. Non-
genuine (imitation) parts may not provide such
built in safeguards. Also, non-genuine parts of-
ten show premature wear, rust and corrosion.Why should you take a chance?In over 40 states, the law says you must be
advised if non-genuine parts are used to repair
your vehicle. And some states have enactedlaws that restrict insurance companies from
authorizing the use of non-genuine collision
parts during the new vehicle warranty. These
laws help protect you, so you can take action to
protect yourself.
It’s your right!If you should need further information visit us at:
