I feel the dealership, Larry H Miller Nissan, is trying to pull a fast one on my as they dont want to deal with the warranty and just want to make some quick cash.

To tell for sure, you can recharge it with leak detecting dye, or pull a vacuum on it and make sure your vacuum doesn't deplete overnight. It may be slow enough that a recharge would last a while, but with the car only being 5 years old, its probably worse.

Only answer there is that a leak exists. Somewhere.

Yep. Pretty much if it's low it had to leak out somewhere.

Ya they said they put dye in it and also used a "freon sniffer" device and cant find any leaks

[ray1970]

If you weren't so far away we could throw my leak detector on it. Bet a dollar I could find the leak.

The good freon sniffers have an element that has to be replaced occasionally. I use the sniffer to get to the general area of the leak. Then I spray 409 on the area and look for bubbles. Dealers are notorious for over charging for the work they do. Sure a road hazard didn't nick the condenser coil?
Do the Schrader valves make a hiss when the service caps come off? Most leaks are where there is a connection.

Well I'm going in the morning to pick it up and will update with what they say.

We go to Larry H. Miller Nissan on 104th and like them. They haven't yet tried to "upsell" me on anything yet. I know there are a few LHM Nissan's around though.

The first thing you should say is, I'd like to speak to the service manager. If it's a warranty covered item, it's a warranty covered expense.

I had a dealership down here ignore an issue. Decided that day it wasn't worth me debating over. Waited a few days to cool off.
Took it back and asked. IF this was your vehicle. Would you accept what i was told? Oh yeah, ok, we'll fix it.
