Nissan Hell. My 2010 1.5dci ( 45k, FSH with franchised non Nissan, purchased used from Arnold Clark) blew the engine when the belt broke in June 2015. Towed it to my local garage who suggested the car was subject to a recall. I contacted Nissan who asked for it to be taken to my local Nissan dealer. I made it clear from the start that I would pursue a claim in Court if they did not carry out a repair. No resistance. As soon as the dealer confirmed the problem Nissan agreed to replace the engine. I was given a replacement car while mine was being repaired. After much arm twisting and again threats of going to small claims court Nissan also paid for my towing costs. No matter where the car was bought if it has a service history you have a strong legal claim. Threaten them with small claims court. In Scotland this can be as much as £5k if my memory is accurate and cost less than £100 to present a case. Good luck. Frankm.
