Not that it matters, but that's not at all how it happened. When I returned for them to confirm the oil use for themselves, it was coordinated to happen when a Nissan rep would be present and it was he who authorized the engine order which took about a week get in. It was explained that the rep sped up the process.I'd like to note a key point here: Nissan didn't order a new engine on the spot, and for that matter Nissan didn't replace your engine; the dealership did those things, and then they got Nissan to cover the costs under warranty.
My problem was from the start as well, but not quite as aggressive at first. No oil pressure issues and I had never checked the oil until the valves started making a ticking noise just before the first change. I just thought it might have been short filled at the factory. Before the second oil change the ticking and need for a quart was happening every thousand miles or so. That's when I first involved the dealership.
BTW, this wasn't even the dealership where I bought the Nissan. I did buy my Ram and this Jeep from the same dealership local chain with mixed feelings about each one's service dept. I literally had more push back at the Ram service dept. trying to get a battery replaced under warranty. Zero push back getting the steering box replaced at Jeep.
