After talking to Nissian Headquarters, they were very unhelpful and rude. I have a recall on a 2017 Nissian Versa and I have to pay for a rental car until they have fixed the key ignition. Nissian Office said I might get refuned but I have submit paper work and wait until who knows when to get refuned if that happens. This is bad customer service. I will never buy another Nissan again.
