Well after our travails of getting out of Phoenix, we made it to Valencia and discovered some new issues. The dishwasher was completely inoperative and Marlene must have her dishwasher. Called Sears to come out and service it. They showed up yesterday afternoon and diagnosed a shot motor. It'll take about a week for the replacement to show. The good news is the motor replacement is covered by the extended service policy.
When we arrived in Valencia I discovered that the heat must have done a number on the tailgate struts and they had died, so a trip to the Nissan dealer to order new struts and those got installed this morning.
Couldn't take the heat in Valencia while we wait for the replacement motor, 105 and higher temps daily and more heat forecast. Not as bad as Phoenix but close. So we drove down to Santa Barbara and will cool off here for 5 days. 85 today and high 70s for the rest of the time. Hope Valencia cools off by the time we get back.
