... Read moreHaving owned my Nissan for four years without any problems except the recall notices, I was confident when I decided to visit the dealership for the free recall engine fix. I chose Cavender Nissan in San Marcos, TX, trusting their reputation. However, just two days after the repair, I noticed the front engine shield was dragging when driving. Upon inspection, I found that many original clips were missing, and instead of proper replacements, the service team had used zip ties in some areas while leaving other clip holes empty. This patchwork job led to the shield hanging loosely and affecting my driving experience. From my personal experience, it’s important not just to get recalls fixed but also to ensure the quality of the repair work meets safety and durability expectations. I recommend thoroughly checking the vehicle after recall services and don’t hesitate to ask the dealership for proper replacements if you notice anything off. Also, sharing such experiences online under tags like #Nissan, #SanMarcosTX, #Dealership, and #CavenderNissanDealership can help other owners stay informed about service quality variations. While recalls are crucial for automotive safety, sometimes the post-repair work can be substandard. If you find similar issues, bring them to the dealership's attention immediately and keep a record of the interactions. From my experience, persistence in follow-up can lead to the dealership correcting mistakes and ensuring your vehicle is restored safely. This approach ensures peace of mind and retains your Nissan’s reliability on the road.
