Should my Micra have this issue?
The timing chain has jumped on my 191 micra with 15 thousand kil on the clock. I never had a problem with my car. Car was not getting used during civid so it wasn't serviced. Should thus have happened.
Our answer:
Hi Agnes,
We are surprised to hear that your car had such a problem, but lying unused is bad for any car to be honest, so it could probably have done with a service before being used again. You could try to ask Nissan for some compensation if it is still under warranty of course.
