  Don’t buy any brand new platinum murano from this dealer! The audio system and the gps conflict and they stop working all of the sudden when they are both used at the same time! You take the car to this dealer where you originally bought it on Jan 2nd, they keep it up to now Jan 25th, only to figure out how to fix a simple audio system! Not responsive! Too irresponsible! It seems like they want to make you tired to forget about the problem! Oh and I forgot to mention that your safety seems not to matter for them as with the warranty package you buy from them they give you a simple car that I even don’t know the name for god’s sake, which doesn’t have ant winter tire! And last but not the least you pay a platinum full package car and they keep your car 23 days now to solve an audio problem!

  Today I spent just over 600$ to fix their mistake and the damage that was caused by having two different types of tires on my car on top of the cost of my car. I would never buy a car from them again and I tell everyone I know who is looking for a car to stay away!!

  They didn't act like it was a big deal when this error was originally brought to their attention multiple times, but when they saw an opportunity to sell her the set of tires they were supposed to include in the first place, suddenly it's "DANGEROUS".

  It took one of their employees admitting that they had sold the car in a "dangerous" configuration to get any traction at all. I'm concerned and pretty sure that without them making that misstep, and without leaving a negative review, this never would have been fixed.

  So, they're selling cars that are, in their own words, "DANGEROUS" to drive.

  I purchased an used 2014 Nissan Sentra at the end of April from Vickar Nissan through Sameer/David. Both guys seemed like decent guys nothing negative to say about them. What I do have a problem with though is having to put an additional grand into my car because Vickar Nissan put a mix of Summer and Winter tires on my car. I was told the car had brand new tires and looking at them quickly - cool they looked brand new. It wasn’t until August that I found out I had a mix of both seasons after my car was in the shop (someone drove into my car - totally unrelated). Was that a total oversight on my part? Definitely.

  Buyer beware, they seem very sneaky here.

  They sold my friend a car with the wrong tires and kept pretending like they were going to fix their error but never followed up.

  When she took the car in for repairs to damage that may have been caused by Vickar selling the car with the wrong tires, someone working at Vickar told her it was "DANGEROUS" to be driving on those tires, unaware that it was Vickar who sold her a car with those dangerous tires in the first place.

  Three separate occasions people there have said they were "going to check with the service department" and just never got back to her.

  This was our first foray into car buying and from the moment we stepped into the dealership we felt welcomed. David was awesome, he was knowledgeable and no-nonsense. He was able to walk us through all the features and helped set everything up once we signed the papers. Kelly in Finance was also excellent, she walked us through all the legal and financial paperwork. She was quick to respond to our questions and made sure everything was in order when we came in to pickup​ our Rogue.

  I called the sales manager and was told that it didn’t matter that the tires didn’t match but I could call service and arrange to have my tires rotated. Uh..

  VICKAR - Do the right thing and I'll be more than happy to update this review to tell everyone that you finally fixed your mistake and were fair to your customers.

  I just heard that they ultimately ended up taking care of their mistake and owning up to it, after it had been brought to their attention and ignored NUMEROUS times. I've added a star because it was resolved, but the overall experience is still very disappointing. You know all of those stereotypes about used car dealers being sneaky, dishonest, very comfortable lying? Let's just say that certain employees at Vickar Nissan are not doing their industry any favors in those regards. I won't name names, they know who they are, they're in a position where they're practically hired to be the "bad cop", so that the upper management can come in when needed and be the "good cops" to the customers who haven't given up by then, according to somebody I spoke with candidly whose family has owned a Nissan dealership for decades in the States.

  It took MONTHS, numerous visits, phone calls, emails, AND a bad review, AND their own employee candidly admitting they screwed up. How are they going to completely ignore an issue for months, but then call it "very dangerous"? Don't feel safe shopping here. You aren't, by their own admission.

  While it was good of him to finally be the ONE person to follow-up, this man still blatantly lied about conversations that took place between himself and the customer in order to try to shift the blame, even after point-blank admitting that it was Vickar's fault in the first place. Very odd way of doing business, very poor communication skills. Had he been honest from the get-go, this would be 3 stars. Had Vickar Nissan fixed their initial error the first time it was brought to their attention, this would be a 5 star review because mistakes happen. Credible people own up to their mistakes and fix them. In this case, it was VERY difficult to get this resolved, and they resolved it by doing the absolute bare minimum that should have been done in the first place.

  I really wanted to update this to 3, 4, or even 5 stars but they made that impossible, even when they were fixing the problem, they did it very poorly. Pushy, condescending, bad vibes.

  If you don't want to be sold a car that's "DANGEROUS" (their words) to drive, maybe look somewhere else. If you know a lot about cars, you might be okay - but otherwise, I wouldn't trust this dealership at all.

  It gets better! In two separate occasions Vickar Nissan EMPLOYEES told me I never should have had two different type of tires, it’s dangerous, etc. And yet... I haven’t been compensated for the additional money and time I have had to put into my car when it already should have had summer/all seasons in the first place.

  We bought a 2017 Nissan Rogue SL Platinum from this dealership, This was a truly terrible experience I would not recommend this dealership to my friends my family or my co-workers, They were very sneaky and shady, IF this dealership promises you anything make sure you get it in writing, We payed cash for this vehicle after we purchased the vehicle we started looking online we noticed that this dealership sold us the vehicle at a financing price not a cash purchase price therefore they didnt apply the cash purchase discount and the rebates properly, This dealership also charged us $700.00 for a interior that was advertised for $500.00, The dealship will not acknowledge anything to do with the pricing issue's at all, I even sent The dealership The information showing we were over charged No response. The undercoating was inadequately applied and rust proofing was very minimal we had to take it back twice to get it touched up and it is still not done right because they left the vehicle outside in the cold and it didn't properly seal, When we asked them if it was inside for the weekend there response was yes it was inside all week end mean while it wasn't caught them in a lie, I should have taken the vehicle to a professional shop to have the undercoating and rust proofing done right the first time, I been looking under the vehicle and the lower ball joints are showing signs of corrosion how could they be showing signs of corrosion already when it's a brand new vehicle, there response was that's the way all rogues comes from the manufacturer and how they fixed it they scaped some of the corrosion off, I have also noticed that there are a few wires that are exposed underneath the vehicle that could cause problems later due to weather conditions, There response was that's the way all rogues comes from the manufacturer and how they fixed it they put electric tape over the bare wiring. After driving this vehicle for a couple months we do not feel safe and We truly regret purchasing a vehicle from this dealership.

  They respond to all of these reviews encouraging people to get in touch with them which makes it look like they're eager to resolve these issues. In my experience, they are not eager to resolve these issues at all, after numerous "We'll get back to you..." 's, ignored emails, and so on.
