I am the owner of an Infiniti QX50 I purchased at INFINITI OF LAS VEGAS. I am also a 60 year disabled minority female. I am the previous owner of several other high-end brand vehicles and am fully INFINITI OF LAS VEGAS. I am also a 60 year disabled minority female. I am the previous owner of several other high-end brand vehicles and am fully aware of the service, information, and quality and level of customer service to expect from my dealerships which typically exceeds the norm. However, Infiniti of Las Vegas does not and did not hold up to the norm during my recent interaction with the dealership. I had a horrific and atrocious dehumanizing, degrading, defamatory and discriminatory experience (as a woman and minority) with Infiniti of Las Vegas that no other person should ever have to encounter. I have reason to believe I was defrauded by Infiniti of Las Vegas for service purported to be performed on my vehicle, BUT was not but that I was nonetheless harassed for payment for. I have reason to believe that discriminatory practices toward women is a part of Infiniti's dysfunctional operations. I also have reason to believe I was profiled by Infiniti, because I am a minority, as a "potential thief" and was treated in all manners of interactions as such and as a substandard human, individual, consumer with no rights (according to their management) to have any adverse feelings or expression concerning their products, service, or treatment, and as much told so by the Director of Infiniti, Steve Staluppi, who openly disregarded my concerns of discrimination as nonsense and me having no right to share such concerns or he'd end the conversation with me. My vehicle was taken to Infiniti on 7/12/2023 for regular maintenance (i.e. oil change, tire rotation, carwash, inspection). While enroute driving to the dealership the vehicle acted as if it were in distress, so I had the vehicle towed the remainder of the way to the service department. When The vehicle was returned to me after purported servicing, it was in the same condition I left it at the dealership, but I was led to believe it had been serviced but there was no sign of the vehicle being serviced or even moved at all as if it sat at the dealership for 3 days. Despite being harassed for pre-payment by the service technician for payment of $289 for an oil change, tire rotation, car wash, and radiator pressure check, there were no signs the work had been completed (i.e. no oil change tag, no wash of vehicle, no tire rotation, or pressure check). Upon complaining, I was told by Steve Staluppi, the Director, after 3 days and 15 calls to finally get to a manager, that it was a trivial complaint for me to event be concerned such insignificant things concerning my vehicle and why was I making such a big deal that my car hadn't been washed, given an oil change, tires rotated, radiator pressure tested, provided with a sticker in the window after an oil change. I was told that my concerns of discrimination were nonsense and I had no right to feel that way. Steve's insensitive and inappropriate response led to a conversation concerning whether female employees at Infiniti ever complained about feeling sexual harassment and if so would those types of complaints be disregarded as senseless and the women told they have no right to feel that WAY. Steve Staluppi was offended by my challenge question and proceeded in threatening to abruptly end the call with me if I continued sharing any concern about feeling discrimination and threatened me not to lecture him concerning HR issues. I was harassed with crypic texts from Infiniti service technician asking me to pre-pay in advance of picking up the vehicle, the last text from the service manager Ken Krachek, being " I see you looked at the invoice but didn't pay it" as if I were being stalked for payment. Steve Staluppi's response to my concern with being inundated with what I considered inappropriate texts, was that I was overly concerned with such messages being sent to me. It felt as if they'd profiled me as some type of common thief who'd run off with my vehicle More

The Infiniti dealership provided a painless car buying process! The staff is very accommodating and knowledgeable about their vehicles. In the past, I have always had to go to California to purchase, no process! The staff is very accommodating and knowledgeable about their vehicles.

Horrible! This is a terrible dealership! They sold us a car that had unreported damage (improperly inspected), almost no coolant in the vehicle, and put our sa This is a terrible dealership! They sold us a car that had unreported damage (improperly inspected), almost no coolant in the vehicle, and put our safety at risk. The damage was found less than 10 days after purchase - all 4 bushings are cracked and need to be replaced as well as the control arms and engine mounts are collapsed. We brought the vehicle back and simply asked for them to repair it yet they implied we had caused the damage or the mechanic that found the damage had caused it. However, a simple NTSB search revealed this to be a common issue with the make of car we purchased. The almost $5000 in unreported damage was confirmed by both the Audi Las Vegas dealership and our mechanic. It has been radio silence from the dealership’s management team, COO, and Owner despite our repeated attempts to solve this problem in a civilized manner. We have since reported them to the Better Business Bureau, the DMV’s dealer compliance board, the state’s department of consumer affairs and are working of pursuing actions in small claims court. DO NOT PURCHASE A VEHICLE FROM THEIR USED CAR DEPARTMENT AT ANY COST!!! More
