I bought the car new.
I changed the oil at 3,000 miles and refilled with Castrol GTX 5W-30 per owner's manual.
I changed the oil at 5,000 miles and refilled with Castrol GTX 5W-30 to set the pattern of oil change every 5,000 miles.
There are currently between 7,200 and 7,300 miles on the car.

The service manager insinuated that since Nissan hadn't done the oil changes, that I might have put in the wrong fluid, and that this could be denied under warranty.

I've been doing my own oil changes since I was 17 and I've used Castrol in all my cars. Plymouth, Dodge, Chrysler and Honda.
I know the difference between oil and transmission fluid.
And I don't have any transmission fluid at my home.
