George Harte Nissan

Back in 2001 I went to this dealer and instantly fell in love with this 97 silver Nissan Altima. It had everything I wanted. But somehow the sales person got me to buy this floor model 98 Nissan tan (yuck) love with this 97 silver Nissan Altima. It had everything I wanted. But somehow the sales person got me to buy this floor model 98 Nissan tan (yuck) maxima. He refused to show me the car I was interested in or any other car for that matter. He made it seem as though that was the only car. And to top it off he didn't do a test drive with us. He was really desperate to get rid of this car. Price tag said 15,999, I told the guy we could not afford more then 350 per month becuase of the insurance. He said fine but the first two payments would be 450 and then it would be lower. I agreed to put the first payment down of 500 and he said that the next payment would be 450 and after that 350 per month. Guess what 4 years later and its still 450! And since I cant afford 450 I cant afford to pay insurance so I cant drive the car. Its been parked in my drive way for a few months now and I have to get a ride from my mom to go to work! I got stuck paying 450 for 5 years, which will come out to roughly 27,000 dollars. Thats what like.. 60% interest? On top of that I later found some scratches all over the back of the car seats and on the roof of the car (my guess is that the other previous owner had a dog) also the cigarette lighter came out when I tried to use it the first time. And I later noticed cigarette burns on the interior driver side of the car (looks like the guy was a smoker too) now.. remember that silver Nissan? It had a CD player in the front. That's what I really wanted. He said no problem we will install one. When I got the car, they drilled a hole where the CD player was supposed to be and had this flimsy wired remote coming out of it that ran to the CD changer in the trunk... IN THE TRUNK! Plus the remote wasn't mounted or anything, it was just hanging there! It was partly my fault for taking my dad (who buys the first thing suggested to him) to co-sign.. but he totally took advantage of us. Plus they added some servise plan to the car without telling us(which cost $500) and they never once called us for maintenance. On top of that the next day I went to the movies and when I was getting ready to leave the stupid car wouldn't start. I looked under the hood and then found that the battery was old and corroded. The car was garbage if they actually certefied or even looked at the car before we took it theres no way that battery would have been like that! I dont know how they are now but I will never go back to that dealership and I will never recommend these people! And if you go there anyway at least stay away from Ronald Federico he is a con artist. I hate Harte Nissan! And they are lucky I didn't sue them for lying about the payments!<br><br>PS sorry its this review is so long but I dont want this to happen to anyone else! By the way did anyone notice that the two good reviews are pending verification?... I wonder why :/ More
