Nissan USA Nissan Motors 2009 Nissan Sentra Blow-Up after only 64K Miles - CLAIM DENIED BY NISSAN Franklin, Tennessee

I bought a pre-owned 2009 Nissan Sentra from a dealership with 40K miles on it.  At 64K miles, the engine blew the 3rd cylinder.  The dealership told me it required a completely new engine ($5,500 + labor) and that the warranty on the engine expired at 60K miles.  Yes, you got it - I was 4K miles over the warranty.

The dealership suggested I contact Nissan Consumer Affairs, which I did, and filed a claim.  After two weeks of the worst customer service I've ever experienced, and me having to call them twice a day and leave messages for "Rhonda, the Regional Manager," they denied the claim.  Even though I sent them service records since I owned the vehicle, they indicated that since they had no idea how the first owner maintained the car, they weren't responsible and weren't going to do anything.

I want the world to know how horrible my experience was with Nissan.  A 2009 vehicle blowing-up at only 64K miles?  Consumer Affairs not taking any responsibility for the problem and providing horrible support.  Do not buy a Nissan.
