NIssan Service - Are they crooked?

While the vast majority of Nissan service departments are honest and reputable, there have been a few documented cases of fraudulent or deceptive practices. In one complaint filed with the Better Business Bureau, a Nissan customer claimed that the service department charged her for unnecessary repairs and then refused to refund her money. In another case, a Nissan customer alleged that the service department had damaged his vehicle and then refused to take responsibility for the damage.

To protect yourself from potential fraud, it is important to do your research and choose a reputable Nissan service department. Here are a few tips:

* Get recommendations from friends, family, or other trusted sources.

* Read online reviews of Nissan service departments in your area.

* Contact the Better Business Bureau to see if there have been any complaints filed against the service department you are considering.

* Ask for a detailed estimate of the repairs that need to be made to your vehicle.

* Be sure to get a written warranty for any work that is performed.

If you believe you have been a victim of fraud or deception by a Nissan service department, you should contact the Better Business Bureau and the Nissan Customer Care Center. You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission.
