I am writing to express my profound dissatisfaction with the car buying experience I encountered at Hudson Nissan of Summerville. Having purchased over 15 vehicles in my lifetime, I can confidently say this the car buying experience I encountered at Hudson Nissan of Summerville. Having purchased over 15 vehicles in my lifetime, I can confidently say this has been the worst experience to date. My wife recently bought a 2021 Mustang Mach-E with only 13,000 miles. During our test drive, we noticed a cosmetic issue with the passenger side mirror. We promptly informed our salesman, who brought the used car manager to assess the situation. He agreed to have the issue fixed and assured us that we could coordinate the repair with our local Ford dealership, with the costs covered by Hudson Nissan. However, after the purchase, we were informed that we needed to return the vehicle to their dealership for the repair, which required a three-hour round trip. Reluctantly, we agreed, eager to have the issue resolved. On Saturday, March 1st, we spent the entire day at the dealership, from opening to closing, waiting for the repair to be completed. Unfortunately, we received no updates on the status of our vehicle. When the technician finally completed the work, he informed us that the sensors had been damaged during the mirror installation and that the car would need to be taken to a Ford dealership for recalibration. It became evident that the delay was due to their attempts to rectify their own mistakes, which were ultimately unsuccessful. Following the technician's instructions, we took the car to our local Ford dealership for further assessment. They diagnosed the problem as a faulty $3,000 module that needed replacement. However, Hudson Nissan refused to cover the repair costs, claiming they did not believe it was the module. They also requested that we pay for the diagnostic fee of nearly $400, promising reimbursement, which has yet to occur (22 days later). A representative from Hudson Nissan suggested we take the car back to their local Ford dealership for reassessment, which would again require a three-hour round trip. To their credit, after some negotiation, they agreed to pick up the vehicle for repairs. However, they stated that this would take almost two weeks. During this time, my wife continued to drive the car to work, as we only have two vehicles. Unfortunately, she was left stranded on two occasions and broke down on the side of the road three times. After the third breakdown, I intervened and called the dealership myself. They finally agreed to have the car towed to their facility for repairs on March 13th. As of today, March 27th, we have yet to receive any updates regarding the status of the vehicle. Each time my wife calls, she is met with vague responses or assurances that “it should be done next week.” They have had the car for two weeks, and the necessary part is readily available, yet no one has provided a satisfactory explanation for the delay. The lack of accountability from the dealership has been incredibly frustrating. Each time my wife reaches out, she receives no concrete answers. This has been the most unprofessional experience I have ever encountered at a dealership, and I feel compelled to report this issue to the Better Business Bureau in hopes of expediting the resolution of our car repairs. My advice to potential buyers would be to steer clear of Hudson Nissan of Summerville. More

Never in my life have I purchased a vehicle so easily. Angel didn't make it feel like he was trying to pull one over on me. He was professional and made me feel at ease. He answered all of my questions wi Angel didn't make it feel like he was trying to pull one over on me. He was professional and made me feel at ease. He answered all of my questions without dancing around the answers I was looking for. The finance office did not pressure me into purchasing "extra" items. Overall, it was one of two pleasant experiences I have had buying a truck. I would definately buy from them again. More
