A member of the North American GTR Owners' Club announced a Class Action lawsuit yesterday against Nissan for "Launch Control /Void Warranty /Transmission Failure."
Nissan responded in a roundabout fashion by telling Edmunds Inside Line that the 2010 Skyline will not have Launch Control. "It's gone," said Nissan at the LA Auto show yesterday. "We just don't want to deal with the warranty nightmare anymore. It'll make the 2009 GT-R really special. It'll be the only R35 with launch control."
This begs the question: now that Nissan has officially admitted to Launch Control's existence as a feature on the 2009, can they still bury their heads in the sand with respect to warranty claims associated with its use?
I'm also looking forward to a redo of the magazine comparo tests next year with the warrantyable sans-LC launches.
