Peltier Nissan

A couple weeks ago it started misfiring and the check engine light came on. I thought I would limp it home but a few miles later it just totally died. I had it towed to the local shop I normally like. They looked at it, I don’t know for how long, and said they didn’t want to mess with it and suggested I take it to the Nissan dealer. So I had it towed to Peltier. Peltier’s diagnosis was a melted coil pack. The video the tech uploaded said “I believe that is the cause of your concern.” They wanted $1718 to switch out 4 coil packs, spark plugs and a fuse. $175 of that was the initial diagnosis, the rest was parts and labor. That seemed like highway robbery but I approved it anyway because my normal shop already rejected it and I didn’t have time to do it myself. Peltier also wanted to do 8 other service things at the same time, like transmission fluid, drive belts, air filters, rotate tires, wiper blades, etc (total more than $1000). I only approved the coil packs, plugs and fuse. A few days later I got a call that they had done the coil packs and it started up fine but that the transmission was slipping and wouldn’t climb a hill and it would need a new transmission, which was another $4800. That’s close to the value of the car, so not worth doing. So in the end they charged me $1718 to diagnose that the car was not worth fixing. Yes, you read that correctly. Let it sink in. Not only was I out $6000 (the value of the car), but I was having to pay $1718 on top of that. As soon as it was known that the car wasn’t worth fixing they started trying to get me to buy a car from Peltier. Every person I talked to tried to do that. I asked if there was a way they could work with me on the $1718 bill since that’s a lot of money to diagnose that the transmission was blown. I had no problem paying the $175 diagnostic charge since that’s really the only service I received. They said I could set up a payment plan on the $1718. They also tried to give me $1450 in trade-in credit for the dead car, which I’m sure they would just make up for by upping the value of the used car they were wanting to sell me. In the end they gave me a $100 off coupon that any customer could get. I will never be returning to Peltier for anything and won’t be buying a Nissan again. Nissan’s are notorious for transmission problems. Google it. I’ll be replacing this car with a Toyota. More

After my buying experience I can't recommend this dealership. My wife and I stopped by on the spur of the moment to look. She was shown a car and she liked it. I didn't do my homework on this as I di dealership. My wife and I stopped by on the spur of the moment to look. She was shown a car and she liked it. I didn't do my homework on this as I didn't know we were going to look at cars that day. Well after buying the car I look on their website to find the car advertised $3000 cheaper. The next day when I asked about it I was quoted law on signed deals. A few days later the salesman told me it was a mistake online. Total lack of integrity to me. Be careful dealing with them More

WARNING…. I’m posting this as a public service to fight corruption, fraud and the auto dealer/service scams many of us have experienced or heard about and few d I’m posting this as a public service to fight corruption, fraud and the auto dealer/service scams many of us have experienced or heard about and few do anything to change. PELTIER Nissan, is guilty of warranty fraud. PERIOD! I have caught them red hand handed. Additionally, the service department led by service manager Rob, along with service advisor Anthony Trevino, are either completely inept or purposely tried to defraud my 19 year old daughter of over $4000 for fictitious repairs. Replace both bent struts and numerous expensive electronic reconfiguring! This made zero sense to someone using just a little common sense. Included in this scam service repair ticket, was an additional $2000 charge to replace the rear main seal on a 2021 Nissan Sentra! I was dumbfounded, when the Peltier service manager was telling me the manufacturer warranty would not cover this because my daughter most likely hit a curb and bent the struts (which turned out to be a lie) Yes you heard that right. My head was about to explode as I tried to reason with this insanity. Service manager Rob then says “to help me out” here’s what we will do. “don’t report this to your insurance, we will rewrite the service orders and just list the rear main seal as the issue and not mention the front steering damage. Nissan, will cover the warranty repair” he also states that we make more money from the Nissan warranty work than if it’s paid through insurance” Service manager Rob continues by saying, “after the warranty work is complete, we will then wright a new work order and address the steering issues, then you can notify your insurance company. The short version of this disgusting experience, I told Rob to do the warranty work and repair rear main seal so I wasn’t in the hook for $2000. I was leaving that day for a week. After several days they informed me the warranty work was complete and wanted to know how I’d like to handle the $4000 front end repairs. I told them I’d get back in a couple days and let them know. First thing that following Monday morning, I had a flat bed tow truck pick up my daughters car and bring to my shop in Tyler. I arranged for a 25 year ASE master tech mechanic to meet me and provide a second opinion on the car. It took 3 minutes laying on my shop floor to diagnose the problem! Bent lower right control arm and ball joint. NO bent struts! At this point I’m realizing Peltier was seriously attempting to defraud my daughter for thousands of dollars. Naturally my next thought was, I wonder if they did a single thing on the $2000 warranty claim? We very carefully removed the belly engine cover under car. To our astonishment and disgust, NOTHING had been touched, NOTHING. I left a message about my experience and scheduled a meeting with General Manager Brian Carter to share my concerns. I was calm but abviously frustrated about what I had experienced and my serious concern about the absolute proof I had of the fraudulent warranty work, not to mention the (at best) gross incompetence from service manager Rob and Anthony Trevino It was quickly apparent to me that he was nervous, agitated and defensive. The most revealing moment however, when I shared with him that I had documented with photos and video, proof of my claim against HIS service department, a serious accusation you would think any general manager would be extremely concerned about, he didn’t even want to look at anything, he refused to look at a single photo or video. For nearly two weeks I called Nissan corporate warranty fraud department in Nashville. They finally returned my call, took my information and said they would investigate Peltier Nissan, but would not share any of the findings with me. Buyer be ware, I could not more strongly suggest you avoid Peltier Nissan in Tyler. If you have had a similar experience and did nothing because it seemed impossible to make a difference, please contact me and share your story to: complaint@pelteirfraud.net Together we can hold companies like this accountable.
