Check your VIN against the recall checker. If it shows up, you get the
repair for free. If it doesn't show up, either the repair was already
done, or your vehicle is not affected.

Mark,
That is absolute bollocks.
As far as I know: *Recalls* never time out, they are mandatory,
enforced by external entities, so it is grounds for a complaint
against the manufacturer.
I have similar experience - dealers often have no clue what they are
required to do, so they try to bluff you out of it. I had to go
through several rounds of that kind of noise before I received the
service that I *knew* that I was entitled to and finally when I kept
stubbornly refuting their crazy claims and steadily mentioning that I
was due my free replacement, that they finally relented but it took
several weeks and rounds before it was done and indeed, for free.
Since you already paid, you can take different steps, up to you how
nasty you want to be - either just "give me back my money" up to suing
them (after verifying that the recall is indeed without deadline as I
suspect).
Good luck.
Cor.

Hi Folks
I just got back from Team Nissan dealer Roanoke VA and they said the Recall on
my 2013 was too old to be included and did a $250 evaluation and said that
since my vehicle sat for 3 months while on vacation , that it caused the
problem due to low battery and not the software. The service department
claimed that I already had the latest brake software installed. (Guess it was
installed by aliens). I’ll have to wait till next winter (with a new battery)
and see if it occurs again. Sounds like nonsense to me, has anyone heard that
a low 12V auxiliary battery can cause brake problems in the winter?
