Does the 2006 SL come with a front license plate bracket as standard
equipment? My car did not come with a bracket. I traded a 6 month old 2006
SE in on this car, and it came with a bracket, which was in a bag with the
fasteners in the trunk.

The moron who sold me this car told me that he could "find out the cost and
sell me a bracket". The reps at 800-NISSAN-1 have not been able to answer
the question.

Every car I've ever purchased came with a front license plate bracket. This
is a petty oversight and an outrage for a $30K car.

I know you probably hate me know, but c'mon dude! Lighten up! It's just
a freakin bracket!

CD

You traded a 6 month old 2008 SE for a 2006 SL,,,????

Apparently you have money to burn, and can afford ten bucks or so for
a license plate bracket,,,,,-,,,,,considering the 6 or 10 grand you
lost doing the trade,,,,?????

The 2006 SE was hammered to hell in a hailstorm. Took the insurance money
and applied toward the new car. Since I only buy cars about every 10 years
or so, I can afford it.

Now about the bracket, it's asinine that a $30K vehicle would come without
it. Since the SE came with it, I can only assume the SL, a higher trim
level car, should come with it. This car is "Nissan's Flagship" according to
the sticker.

Since I'm in customer service for a major jet aircraft manufacturer, maybe I
oughta tell my customers "Since you have $18 million to blow on a new jet,
maybe you shouldn't be complaining..." I wonder how long I'll keep my job.

Wow, what a brilliant comeback. Too bad you didn't answer my question. Are
you a car salesman, Einstein?

The salesman doesn't want to give it to you, since those kind of things he
has to pay for out of his own pocket. Give the sales manager a call, and if
he doesn't cooperate call the GM of the dealership. Those guys tend to be
pretty accessible, you'll get your bracket.

My guess is it just got lost, or another salesman robbed peter to pay paul.

It could be the great Circle of License Plate Brackets - this could have
been going on for 2 years, where there are Maximas all over the greater XX
area are driving around with another Maxima's factory-given bracket. Oh,
the horror.

An amusing solution would be to go "test drive" another Maxima, and just
drop its license plate bracket off at your house.

The car came with the bracket but Moron probably threw it away, lost
it, or put it on a different car.

To think of all the hoops I have to go through to leave the blasted
thing OFF of a new car. On my 2000 camaro SS I had to make it a
condition of sale to leave it off and not place an ugly vinyl
dealership emblem on the back. That was 32 grand. To each their own
though. My used 2005 max SE I was promised that the driver's side
mirror (missing a finger sized chunk) would be fixed on warrantee and a
spare key would be provided, neither materialized after the papers were
signed. The key + fob + program cost me $250. The mirror would cost
700+ not including paint and install. stealership indeed. Fight for
what you deserve.

My maxima came with front and back plate holders but 2 plates are compulsory
here so they have to. And for the dollars you put out on a Maxima the
dealership should put one on anyway if you ask.

when I goto a restaurant and get a bad service from a waiter/waitress, I don't leave
any tip. when i goto a dealership and get a bad service from salesman, i don't
leave any commission. I would have asked for another salesman and make sure the
first salesman don't make anything otherwise you'll come back or go elsewhere.
