Nissan Patrol 2006: Damage caused by corrugated roads

...

DURING a recent trip to the Kimberley in my 2006 Nissan Patrol the rear plastic bumper bar, tail lights and wheel-arch flares rattled loose. Nissan agree with me it was caused by corrugated roads, but won't fix the problems even though the car is still under warranty. Am I being unreasonable wanting them to fix this problem?

THIS is one of those situations that calls into question what is reasonable use. My guess is Nissan is saying your use falls outside what is reasonable, but I would think that it is quite reasonable for you to take your car on to corrugated roads and not have it fall apart. Keep the pressure on.
