Message	He said the only way Nissan will honor the warranty for those trannies is if they can buy one through Nissan North America. He said it`s no longer available through them. I called Courtesy,and they are a Nissan dealership and they told me they can get them by ordering them from Japan. The guy I`ve been dealing with here is going to call Courtesy to see if they can sell him one,and him in turn charging it back to Nissan. Imo,ethically that is how it should be done. If not,I guess anyone who buys one of these trannies and they`re defective,you`re just s.o.l.
