    Anonymous: well this should be informative.

    The process is apparently fairly quick: "From start to finish, CAMVAP targets 70 days to resolve a case." So says their web site.

    Too bad it's come to this.

    I agree man. I was really hoping it wouldn't. I started loving nissans when they were Datsun. And I still love my Micra. I just want it fixed. Something to be proud of and to brag about.

    They sell the Versa in the US. I think with the same engine as in the CDN Micra?

    I do agree with you and anonymous stating that Canada needs lemon laws. I remember long ago Canada used to have better consumer protection than the US, but we slipped way behind.

    That's why in the Micra commercials everyone is shocked about the price but then walked away.



    This guy can't even pass the starting line.


    This guy is in shock for some reason.


    O this car does not sip

    CAMVAP has called me back and is pushing the arbitration up. If you have been to the dealer and told "no", push.

    and those versas sedan and versa note also have the rod knock there.
    you can find similar cases on google.
    still no news from the dealer, still waiting for all the internals.
