    Dishonest
    by Mike Murphy from Albany ny
    December 6, 2018

    This was one of the worst experiences. The salesman was dishonest. Lied about costs and kept adding things in. I was customer for about 8 years. Leased... 2 cars and was doing third and they were awful. I had questions after and the general manager refused to call me back. The salesman Joe would call me constantly asking for good reviews and say that the general manager would be in touch and he just a mad manager but don’t take it out on his own review.

    The whole experience was excellent. Normally "car buying" can be as bad as going to the dentist but Mike H, GM Mike and Dave G. were a joy to work with.... They got me in a vehicle I wanted at the price I wanted.

    I just leased a Nissan Sentra through Destination Nissan. This is the third lease we???ve done through this dealership, and as usual, everything went very... smoothly, and we continue to be pleased with the sales people (in this case, kudos to Joey King!) as well as the service department.

    All I want to say it this , I was charged a labor fee, for a defect of my 2016 Nissian Maxima. The moldings keep flying off and I got charged for replacing... them. It???s a factory defect !!!!! How can this company In good Conscience charge a client for this ? It???s the manufacture defect !!!! I would NEVER buy another Nissian again.. I cannot wait to get rid of this vehicle!!!!
