Ive had my 2008 G37S Coupe since Thanksgiving 2008. Thankfully Ive never been in the position that I would need to change a tire or use the jack. When I changed my wheels I had a shop do all the work and they lifted up the car like any shop would without using my personal jack. Today I was trying to change my lugs to a new set of Forumula's I just bought from a member, I went to jack up my car and I realized the jack wasn't there, it never has been. Ive wondered and wondered why there was that empty spot for almost 3 years and it never occurred to me that thats where the jack was SUPPOSED to be.

Im gonna get in touch with the dealer that I bought the car from up in Pennsylvania (I live in Virginia). I just cant believe I never noticed this until now.. Do you guys think they'll send me one? Or will the fact that it has been pretty much three years before I noticed this play against me? HELP ME

Just buy a nice jack for yourself. Way better than the jack that came with the car.

^^+1 i never use the jack that came with the car, i purchased a pittsburgh low profile jack, it's great and much easier to use.

I get what you're saying but its just the principle. How can every new car not come with a jack?

Bmw's are gay and don't come with them because the owners can't be bothered.

honestly op, google up nissan stock scissor jacks. there are horror stories everywhere.
2 Ton Compact Floor Jack
is a good replacement for a scissor jack but the car comes down fast if you arent careful. just twist extremely slowly. caution, use only for jacking up 1 side at a time.
otherwise, just buy yourself a high rated scissor jack.
(btw, scissor jacks are the least safe out of all the kinds of jacks but they are by far the most convenient)

Thats because they come with run flats and have no spare tire.

BTW people I dont NEED the jack.. I got my lugs on just fine. Im just kinda surprised that I didnt have one in the first place. And I want it cause Im entitled to it arent i?

I would think so, best bet is just call or go to dealership and see what they say. My guess is they wont do much but you never know.
