I have a 2006 Nissan Altima with 39000 miles on it.?

Sorry to hear that I work for Thornhill Nissan In Fort Worth. I bet I could get the cable covered It is all in how you describe the problem and how the technician (Me) words the warranty information. Only 3,000 past factory warranty. If the oil change boys over filled the battery it could cause corrosion your talking about. There is something to be said about taking your car to the dealer for regular oil changes. Courtesy Nissan Central Expressway. Bankston dealerships are owned by Auto Nation. And there is Don Davis? Either Courtesy or Thornhill the two dealerships with the highest customer satisifaction.

Just because it's a 2006 it doesn't mean it's fairly new. You have 39k on average the most miles you should put on a car is 12k a year. It has a lot of miles on it for an 06. So that car might have been through a lot before you got it... You don't know the history of the vehicle before you purchased it either, and if you put all those miles in your car in 1 year then yeah you probably did mess it up lol no offense. Not only that, maybe they didn't notice the corosion before so it only got worse. It can be a lot of things... is it under warranty?

oki think its the s*&ty batteries that nissan puts in the cars mine whent out for no reason i took it to get it charged and they said i need a new one cuz it turn out to be a bad batterry i have other friends and co workers that have gotten battery problems with nissan viechles so i think thats the reason but i would just get over it and take it to a shop that can fix it for you for alot less dealers usually over charge i mean if its just the cable that got messed up you can just change it and if its the starter then you might be able to get it from kragen or auto zone for alot less i'm averaging around less than 300 not the 1200 that they are asking you for but thats if it only messed up the cables and starter

I would get a second opinion, take to an independant mechanic who you can trust or through a frien, and let that mechanic tell you what may have caused it get it in writing and then fight Nissan on the warranty, whoever did your lasrt maintance on your car may have disconnected it and put it on badly, which in turn could have caused the problem. But i would definately find a way to fight Nissan on this.

Its not that it's considered your fault its that your warranty for bumper to bumper expired at 36,000 miles. Unless you purchased an extended warranty it will not be covered.

I work for Nissan Dealership where in Texas do you live. MAYBE I can help?!
