WOW, sorry to hear about the cracked radiator. This is DEFINITELY not how an Armada should be going down the road. That scratch has definitely been bought by the tow company. PAY UP!!!

No doubt. As soon as the tow truck operator pulled up to the truck both he and l looked at each other and said " this is a FLATBED call'. The owner assured him that it's ' no problem " . Well NEWSFLASH Mr. dumbazz tow company owner.... YOU WILL PAY FOR MY WHEEL AND HOPEFULLY LEARN SOMETHING. AZZHOLE

That's what I'm thinking! That's just plain neglegence. The tow is actually O.K. though I'd prefer a flatbed but carelessness can occur with them too. Thats why they have insurence.

I was in for the 36K checkup very recentyl, All good right ?.. Since that service I've needed an exaust manifold and now a radiator. I called the serice dept. the other day because I had no heat. ( there is a thread about that ) , The service dept said that the dash would have to come apart to deal with it not realizing ( until today ) that it is a radiator issue. Just a pain in the azz of a day and the scratched wheel is what's pizzin me off the most..... sorry for the rant.... Thanks Nissan warranty tow people.... :chainsaw::chainsaw:

thanks man . Im taking a trip to the Jersey SHore today with my wife and kids so ( and I'll be trailering the ski in my avatar ) so i'm glad it happened yesterday and not in traffice during a road trip. The owner of the tow company said he will take care of the wheel. Do you guys think I should let Nissan warranty know about the wheel damage ?

If the guy said he will take care of it let him do it it's not a big damage

39000 miles, cracked radiator

I had that on my '07 LE at 36,xxx. I had them replace it with an aftermarket radiator under my thrid party extended warranty. Hopefully it holds up better than OEM.

The dealer had 1 in stock and the repair is complete. I hope it holds up for a while....
