I am the new owner of a 2003 MO SE with 51000 KM (35,000m?). Everything seems to be great with it, though the alternator went on it the other day...no big deal, it was just under warranty and it was a recall anyway.
Question 1: What do I need to do to maintain warranty?
I ask this because I did my 48,000KM service, they wanted to charge me almost $700, and the work they were performing didn't match with what was in the maintainance plan manual. I asked why all the difference, they said the the the manual was a recommended "guide". So, if it is only recommended, what do I have to do to comply to the terms of the warranty? Is it just do oil changes? I'm a little confused, I don't want to get ripped off, but I also don't want to void my warranty.
Question 2: I read the thread failed CVTs and I have to say, it scared the HELL out of me! The repair costs are insane! Should I be selling my Murano when the KMs get close to the warranty end date? I was really hoping to keep this thing for years. Does anyone know the failure rate for the CVT? Out of the 4000+ members here, 35 voted indicating that they have had a failed CVT, so I guess that isn't too bad.
Thanks for your help!
