Here's an odd one. I had my car on the OEM jack and while lowering it, it bent and the car dropped. Luckily it was not up high and it didn't damage anything, but the car jack did get bent. Is this something that Nissan or Infiniti would replace?

I honestly have no idea why this would happen, it's not like I have an extra load on the vehicle and it was set up properly. Flat and leveled surface in the proper location. I used another jack in the same location, the same way and had no issues with it.

 

Probably not unless you can prove the jack was defective which would probably be difficult to do. You will most likely get the "operator error" response even though you may have done everything correctly.

 

I figured. I just like having a spare one just in case. I'm going to go to the dealership when I have the chance and see what they say. If they replace it, great. If not, oh well. I'm just glad I wasn't under the car. I have jack stands, but they were too tall and still wouldn't have made a difference lowering the car.

 

Just an FYI, I got it replaced for free. Not sure if it was under warranty but the dealer did replace it for me.
