IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION
Unfortunately, accidents do occur. In this
unlikely event, there is some important in-
formation you should know.
Many insurance companies routinely autho-
rize the use of non-genuine collision parts in
order to cut costs, among other reasons.
Insist on the use of Genuine
Nissan/Infiniti Collision Parts!
If you want your vehicle to be restored using
parts made to Nissan's/Infiniti's original ex-
acting specifications þ if you want to help it
to last and hold its resale value, the solution
is simple.
Tell your insurance agent and
your repair shop to only use Genuine
Nissan/Infiniti Collision Parts.
Nissan
does not warrant non-Nissan parts, nor
does Nissan's warranty apply to damage
caused by a non-genuine part.
Using Genuine Nissan/Infiniti Parts can help
protect your personal safety, preserve your
warranty protection and maintain the resale
value of your vehicle. And if your vehicle
was leased, using Genuine Nissan/Infiniti
Parts may prevent or limit unnecessary ex-
cess wear and tear expenses at the end of
your lease.
Nissan/Infiniti designs its hoods with
crumple zones to minimize the risk that the
hood will penetrate the windshield of your
vehicle in an accident. Non-genuine (imita-
tion) parts may not provide such built in
safeguards. Also, non-genuine parts often
show premature wear, rust and corrosion.
Why should you take a chance?
In over 40 states, the law says you must be
advised if non-genuine parts are used to
repair your vehicle. And some states have
enacted laws that restrict insurance compa-
nies from authorizing the use of non-
genuine collision parts during the new ve-
hicle warranty. These laws help protect you,
so you can take action to protect yourself.
It's your right!
