Unprofessional Sales Team - Phone is being spammed nonstop I went to Nissan of Melbourne earlier this month to look at purchasing a vehicle. I began to look at pre-owned Altimas where I was greeted by Max. The I went to Nissan of Melbourne earlier this month to look at purchasing a vehicle. I began to look at pre-owned Altimas where I was greeted by Max. The first thing I told him was that I am a current owner of a 350z and I was looking to get into another Nissan, but I haven't decided exactly what I wanted yet. However, I made it adamant that I wasn't looking for the same car as my mom. My mom has a Sentra and I didn't want the same car as her. I said this repeatedly. Looking over the Altima I get a rundown of the features before going inside and sitting at his desk. He grabs us a water, thank you. Tell him exactly what everything is on my end, budget, credit, etc. and what I am looking for. He seemed to make more small talk with my mom about non-automotive subjects than with myself. Hello? Max? I'm the potential customer. Establish rapport with me, not my mother thanks. Moving on, I get a condescending breakdown on how my trade in would work, how that would affect payments, my credit, etc. I'm 32 years old and Max is giving me a "Economics 101" lecture on really basic principles. I don't need you to write notes on a piece of paper and put it in front of my face, I am not in school and you are not a teacher. If that wasn't enough to sit through, I wanted to see what my options were. So, he asks me what color would I prefer. I said black. Now, being that I was looking at an Altima before going inside, talking about the features of the Altimas and Maximas once inside, I was thinking he was bringing one of those two models. Nope. He brings out a 2019 Sentra with less features than my moms 2014. Nowhere did I mention that I wanted a Sentra. I made it very known that I wasn't looking to get into one. Over and over again. Nowhere in the whole spiel and run-around and 101 class did Max mention that he was bringing a Sentra. And his response when I told him, well I'm not really looking to get into a Sentra, it's not exactly my first pick: "We'll my first choice is a Ferarri but we all have to ." and that's about all I cared to hear from him. I was pretty disappointed because I have owned 2 previous Nissans: A 1995 240SX and a 2005 350z. I wanted to keep being loyal to the Nissan brand, but that experience turned me away big time. If that wasn't enough, after I left the dealership, I was being spammed everyday with the same automated text message: "Tim, this is Max at Nissan of Melbourne. Are you still in the market for a car? If so, please let me know how I can help?" I replied at one point in time with a picture of the steering wheel and gauge cluster of my new car, to make a point. But, it wasn't received by anyone, since I was still getting this message daily. I called after 2 weeks of this and told them to take me off whatever automated list I am on. I have purchased another vehicle and I am not in the market nor interested in a Nissan anymore. I am still getting this same message as of tonight (8/21) after being at the dealer one time and making it clear I wasn't interested on (8/5). I was even contacted with the same automated message: ""Tim, this is ___________ the sales Manager at Nissan of Melbourne. Are you still in the market for a car? If so, please let me know how I can help?" I am really disgusted in the lack of professionalism and complete disregard of customer service from management and down. I was not treated like I was a person when I was at the dealership and with all of these spam texts, I am still not being treated as a person even after I have made clear to stop sending me them. If my next vehicle is a Nissan, it will never be purchased at this dealership and I would not recommend this dealership to anyone. More
Service/repair caused damage to vehicle A week ago I had them do a full 100,000 mile check up where they replaced the spark plugs. The service technician did not place all the connectors ba A week ago I had them do a full 100,000 mile check up where they replaced the spark plugs. The service technician did not place all the connectors back into the car to mount down the air intake manifold (minor). They also left a bendable magnetic bolt/plug extractor in the engine compartment that wrapped up in the internals, took out the radiator and subjected the components in the compartment to thermals well out of specification (major). They initially claimed it was not their tool, but less than 24h later they admitted it was and their fault. Their offer was to just replace the radiator fan and motor. No warranty, no guarantees, nothing on all the other components under the hood that potentially been negatively impacted by the heat or a bendable metal rod bouncing around under the hood. Everything else is fine, trust us. Sorry that trust went out the window already. Am currently still talking with them in good faith but after lackluster progress in them providing an acceptable resolution am exploring other avenues if the situation warrants it. At this point, they just seem to want to get the vehicle good enough to drive far enough for it to make it off the lot and wash their hands of this. Something goes wrong 5 miles down the road, I am on the hook it seems. Updates to the above review as of May 8th: Along with the replacement of the radiator fan and motor, they also needed to replace the electrical junction box to the radiator. So now along with very potential heat related reduction of the components under the hood, there is also now the chance of electrical issues down the road. Requested a limited two year warranty of the engine bay from the shop and was denied. Also requested $550 off the $1800 initial service to cover work loss due to having the car in the shop for almost a week awaiting parts, having to go to the shop several times and time with legal council. The $550 was also denied. The request of the $550 was due to them telling me that "this will not cost me anything". Eric Bush should of also said "asterisk" after that statement because it was just more bull. The above requests were after several times where I caught them lying (changing story) and not addressing all the issues. For example, after waiting the week for the parts to come in for the radiator, was called and told the car was ready. When I got there to pick up the vehicle, I look over the list of things they did and saw no oil change. When asked about it, got "Oh you want the oil changed too?". Dude, because of your tool taking out the radiator, the engine got super heated and you did not check or change the oil?! The oil was practically sludge when I checked it in front of them. They actually wrote on the new repair invoice that the oil was changed "as a courtesy for customer". Sorry, it was not a "courtesy" to catch them halfhearted repair of the damage they caused. Long story short, do not get repairs done here unless you also budget a lawyer and financial loss into the repair quote if they screw up. More

Dishonest and inconsiderate We found a vehicle on CarGurus.com (2018 Nissan Maxima). We called and talked to Matthew and said the price on their website did not match the better We found a vehicle on CarGurus.com (2018 Nissan Maxima). We called and talked to Matthew and said the price on their website did not match the better price on CarGurus and asked if they would meet it. After confirming they would, we drove 60+ miles to the dealership. We evaluated the car (after being handed off to another sales person who had limited to no knowledge of the vehicle). That was fine - we researched the vehicle - we just wanted to experience it in person. After deciding it was the vehicle we wanted, we asked to start the paperwork on the purchase. Things went from tolerable to deplorable quickly. They started with a price that was more than $5000 above the price on their website and $12K more than they had agreed to over the phone. They told us the price we saw was a "mistake" and that it would be taken down within 10 minutes. Great for them. After letting them "work on it" and waiting for them to "find coupons" we finally agreed with Abraham (the manager) that we could not agree on price. He tried several other tactics - including telling us that we just needed to accept the "great deal" he offered and worry about it later if we couldn't afford the payment. Needless to say we left - having wasted the afternoon. On our ride home, they called to indicate they "found a coupon" and we should come back so they could discuss the price more. We should have written a review based on that experience alone - however it gets even worse. As we are still in the market for a vehicle, we started a search again and found a different vehicle - but exact same options (we actually looked at it while we were at the dealership originally) listed by the dealership again for around the same price that started our interaction. Apparently they made another "mistake". If you want honest sales people, fair treatment, and an overall decent experience - look elsewhere. I'm truly not sure how this dealership is still in business. My sympathies for their customers. More

Then honestly sha I gave a 5 star rating, because they didnt have a 10. I went in to just talk about my trade-in options in Feb. We test drove a few. Then honestly shared with me a few great tips, on how to get the best deal with my budget and personalized situation. There was No pressure, No swindling, Max was truly meeting me where I was at. It was a great 1st session. I left with the car I came in, confident and a few weeks ago, went back, asked for Max. 3.5 hours later, drove off with my new pre owned car fits me . He truly listened to my budget, and my wants, needs and greatly appreciated all his time and commitment. Thank you Max, and Nissan. Do yourself a Favor, Ask For MAX.. Christa More
