The production delay will be impacting on the models like the Nissan Murano...etc. Those of you who are waiting on their new T31 to arrive can expect to receive as per the order estimate. Nissan Japan have just started producing X-Trails for the May 2011 production month nondisclosed_email@example.com (jalalski)Fri, 29 Apr 2011 12:31:30 +0000 Re: Japan's Tsunami & Earthquake Impact on Nissanhttps://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2051211,from=rss#post2051211https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2051211,from=rss#post2051211The x-trails are back in production at the Kyushu Production Plant. This is where the Exy is manufactured in Japan. Details HERE I hope they get the required parts to continue their run.nondisclosed_email@example.com (jalalski)Mon, 28 Mar 2011 19:20:16 +0000 Re:https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050915,from=rss#post2050915https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050915,from=rss#post2050915I won't mind a nuclear powered engine in the exy But yeah, I don't think they'll be able to last long without suppliers re-starting their operations. JATCO (the CVT transmission manufacturer) is also in trouble and their factory has been damaged.nondisclosed_email@example.com (jalalski)Mon, 21 Mar 2011 11:12:41 +0000 Re: Japan's Tsunami & Earthquake Impact on Nissanhttps://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050913,from=rss#post2050913https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050913,from=rss#post2050913But notice that engine production has not yet restarted due to its closeness to the nuclear power plants so this could hamper efforts to restart new car production until engines can be sourced from alternate plants overseas.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Revhead Kev)Mon, 21 Mar 2011 10:56:42 +0000 Re: Japan's Tsunami & Earthquake Impact on Nissanhttps://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050908,from=rss#post2050908https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050908,from=rss#post2050908Nissan to resume production in Japan from today (Monday) Details HERE Good news indeed.nondisclosed_email@example.com (jalalski)Mon, 21 Mar 2011 08:01:10 +0000 Re:https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050796,from=rss#post2050796https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050796,from=rss#post2050796Nissan re-starts manufacturing in some plants (details HERE)nondisclosed_email@example.com (jalalski)Fri, 18 Mar 2011 04:17:17 +0000 Re:https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050706,from=rss#post2050706https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050706,from=rss#post2050706Here is the latest from Nissan Japan: 8:00AM GMT 14 Mar 2011   Nissan Closed all four of its car assembly factories in Japan and will not restart them on Monday. What happens after that depends on securing a supply of parts as well as repairing facilities, the company said. Nissan made 81,851 cars in January in Japan, where it manufactures 22 per cent of its vehicles. There are also reports that Nissan lost an entire fleet of brand new Infinity cars that was ready to be shipped to the US Of course that doesn't compare to anything in terms of loss of life.nondisclosed_email@example.com (jalalski)Mon, 14 Mar 2011 19:01:41 +0000 Re:https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050647,from=rss#post2050647https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050647,from=rss#post2050647Yeah Tony, am prepared to wait for as long as it takes. The guys in Japan have much important things to worry about than manufacturing cars at the moment.nondisclosed_email@example.com (jalalski)Sun, 13 Mar 2011 07:29:43 +0000 Re:https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050646,from=rss#post2050646https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050646,from=rss#post2050646Under the circumstances it wouldn't hurt to wait a little longer for the Red Bull then Jalal. It really is devastating news and seems to be happening all over the world lately. Just waiting for some tosser to blame this on global warming.nondisclosed_email@example.com (cooch t31)Sun, 13 Mar 2011 06:17:25 +0000 Japan's Tsunami & Earthquake Impact on Nissanhttps://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050643,from=rss#post2050643https://baustralianxtrail.runboard.com/p2050643,from=rss#post2050643Hi Guys, I am sure that most of you would have heard the devastating news of the tsunami and earthquake that has hit many areas in Japan on March 11, 2011 Our thought and prayers are with those who have been affected by this, especially our members from Japan. We hope that you are all safe. As a result of the above, all Japan can manufacturers have suspended operation until further notice. Nissan Japan announced closure of ALL its production plants (6-8 of them are in Japan) from Monday 14/3/2011 This obviously will result in delays with parts and new car orders from Japan unless helped by other production plants around the world (including USA, UK and Russia) News article HERE nondisclosed_email@example.com (jalalski)Sun, 13 Mar 2011 02:49:20 +0000
