  I called to purchase a vehicle and was told that I needed to fill out a credit application online. After I filled out the credit application, I didnt hear back from the sales department so I called a few times and was told that they are working on it. I never heard back from anyone. I then called the next day and was told that they were never working on anything by ****** whom introduced himself as the sales manager. He told me I had to come in the store because they dont work with customers over the phone. I asked why they ran my credit if they dont work with customers over the phone and he flat out lied and said the system automatically runs your credit after you submit an application. This has been a horrible experience.

  Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I want to sincerely apologize for the confusion and frustration you experienced during your recent interaction with our dealership. Your time and interest in purchasing a vehicle with us are truly appreciated, and its never our intention to make the process feel anything less than smooth and respectful.
  
  To clarify, our General Sales Manager, *** *****, did review your credit application and personally attempted to reach out to you on May 31st. Additionally, he followed up to inform you of the status of your application, which was declined due to an unpaid balance charge-off reported by *****.
  
  I also want to apologize for any miscommunication regarding how our credit application process works. While our system does allow customers to apply online, we strongly encourage an in-person visit to better assist with the financing process and vehicle selection. If you have any questions, please reach out to **** ********, General Manager at ************ or ************************************************.

  Thank you,

  On Wednesday, April 23, I saw a 2021 ********** Tiguan advertised by Arlington Nissan for $17,526 on their website, and on other websites. When we went to the dealership, they added $3,000 in other fees. These fees are not related to taxes, title or other fees ordinarily incurred in the purchase of a car. The business manager said that the fees are being charged by the sales department and that this is out of his control. No one in the dealership could explain what the fees were. They were referred to as *** and Destination charges. The fee might have been added due to the fact that I am securing financing and an extended warranty from a third party, not the dealership. In any case they tried to tell me that the price of $17,526 was only visible on third-party websites, and that the correct price of $20,500 what would show on their website. That is not the case. Their website shows the same price $17,526. When I called them back, they claim that there is some fine print at the bottom of the website Explaining this additional $3,000 and fees. I cannot find what the referred to on the website. Even if the information is on the website, it is not easily detectable or readily available. Arlington Nissan's practices are very deceptive.

  Thank you for taking the time to visit Arlington Nissan and for sharing your recent experience regarding the 2021 ********** Tiguan.
  
  We are sorry to hear that your visit did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify what occurred.
  
  The vehicle in question was listed at $17,526, and that price is accurate as advertised on our website and partner listings. As part of our process, we offer optional products such as Nano protection and Recover theft recovery to every customer. These are not mandatory fees and are never added without the customer's consent.
  
  You had asked for a comparison between our vehicle protection options and the third-party warranty you were considering. To accommodate your request, our Finance Manager, *******, went over a price that included those optional products for comparison purposes only. We understand that this may have caused some confusion, and we apologize if that was not clearly communicated at the time.
  
  When you expressed concern about the pricing, our team attempted to re-engage and review the vehicle pricing without any optional products included. Unfortunately, we did not have the opportunity to do so before you left the dealership.
  
  We want to emphasize that transparency and customer satisfaction are very important to us. If you are still interested, we would welcome the chance to review the vehicle pricing againclearly and without any added optionsso you have all the information needed to make the best decision for you.

  Complaint: 23243254
  
  I am rejecting this response because:

  The response by Arlington Nissan inaccurate and falsely portrays the conversations I had at the dealership.  When meeting with the salesman and the business manager I asked several times if the price of the car was as advertised, $17,526, or $20,526 that they showed me on a quote, which they took away so I no longer have it.  The $3,000 increase in the price, they said, was due to the additional fees referred to as UCI and Destination charges. 

  I did NOT ask for a comparison between warranty quotes and I did NOT leave the dealership before the information I asked for could be provided.  I asked for the price of the car without the additional fees listed as UCI and Destination Charges, $17,526 as advertised, which should have been included in the advertised price of the car.  I was told by the business manager that the fees were being charged by the sales department and that this is out of his control, and that the price of the car was $20,526, not $17,526.  I was also told that I only saw the $17,526 price because I was looking at a third party website, which is also a false statement.  The price was the same on Arlington Nissan's own website.  I have seen other complaints registered by the BBB against Arlington Nissan, so clearly this is common practice for this dealership, bait and switch. I see that Arlington Nissan has their own version of the truth.  I hope they are exposed and discontinue their unethical and deceptive business practices.  I also hope they tell the truth in future responses to this complaint.

  
  Sincerely,

  Purchased a brand new car in Nov 2024 with a cash down payment of $8k. Finance guy did not add my gap insurance but made sure to all all the add ons that would be an incentive to himself and the sales person. I received a phone call from the company about two weeks ago and explained what happened and was told I would have to most likely get refinanced (what a joke) and they will have someone call me back. I have not received a phone call or email since then. This is a huge inconvenience as I sat in this business for hours and they still dont get it right. They are only concerned with making sure they are adding in items that make them an inventive on the backend!

  

  Business Response

  Date: 04/11/2025

  After reviewing the transaction, we can confirm that the customer placed a down payment of $8,000 when purchasing the vehicle in November 2024. Due to this substantial down payment, the loan-to-value ratio did not meet the criteria necessary for ************* eligibility. Specifically, the value of the car exceeded the amount financed, which made the customer ineligible for GAP coverage through our lenders guidelines.
  
  We understand this may not have been clearly communicated at the time of purchase, and we sincerely apologize for any confusion or frustration it may have caused. Our team did reach out to the customer by phone to explain the situation and discuss possible options. We regret that there has been a delay in follow-up communication and truly apologize for any inconvenience.
  
  Please know that we value every customer and take these matters seriously. Please reach out to **** ********, General Manager at ************ or ************************************************.

  I bought Nissan rouge 2020 from Nissan Arlington dealership on May ****** for $31000. It was titled LEMON at that time which I was not told about. I went to *** for car loan and they declined saying cars titled as LEMON so they cannot finance it. So, I went back to the dealership and showed my concern about it. They assured me that its not a big issue and I should not face any problem while selling the car when I need to. They said they cant update title in ****** but they are adding addition report in *******. They also provided me the email assuring they will take my car back on market value if there is any concern. But now, when I went back to them to sell my car, they outrightly declined to take it back due to its title LEMON and insulted me, said we dont know who sold you this car l, we were not there when it was sold to you. I said this dealership only sold it to me with this title. I dont have the authority to update some car with this title. They are now harassing me by putting me in this situation, insulting me and not even considering discussion with me. I have put the review online and in my review response they provided the number and asked me to call back to sort this out. I did called them twice and both the times they said we will call you back and never did. I have been to multiple dealers to sell this car and they explained me cars with LEMON status are unsafe and thus not sold to people. Arlington Nissan has put me and my family safety on RISK by selling this car and that to be on such a huge price. I need help here as I need to move out of country and I m in situation to sell this car. No-one is buying this car and Nissan Arlington is my only option and this is what they assured as well per there email which I have saved. I am attaching email screenshot of assurance provided to me.

  When you purchased your vehicle back in 2022, you were made aware of the nonconformity, including the judder when releasing the accelerator, shaking, and the cracking noise from the front. As noted in Repair Order #****** dated 12/22/2021, the electronic coupler and control unit were replaced to address these concerns.
  
  For your reference, I have attached copies of both documents that were signed by you at the time of purchase. Please reach out to our General Manager, **** ******** at ************ or ***************************** for any questions.

  I am rejecting this response because: 

  The signature in the two attachments provided by Nissan Arlington dealership are not even mine and is a miserable attempt of forged signatures.

  While buying this car on 05/31/2022, I was only made to perform digital signatures, and I have a copy of all the digitally signed documents by ME which I am attaching here with my response. There was no manual signature done by me to be specific using PEN and no such documents were even shown or provided to me at the time of purchase dated 05/31/2022 which Nissan Arlington has attached in their response with my forged signatures.
  

  Now, as per lemon law (Illinois vehicle buyer protection act), the vehicle should not be put for resell for safety concerns and if dealer has put the vehicle for sell, they should issue a disclosure statement prior to resell explaining the nonconformity and warranting that the nonconformity has been corrected. The disclosure statement must accompany the vehicle through the first retail sale which means it should be explained, provided an original copy to the buyer and should be signed by the buyer.

  Here, nothing mentioned in LEMON law was followed while selling Nissan Rogue 2020 to me on 05/31/2022. Neither the document was shown or discussed or signed by ME && on top of it all, a miserable attempt of my signature forgery is done (Which is not even done correctly). This is an illegal offence, a criminal act of signing my name without my permission or authorization by Nissan Arlington dealership authority/employee/manager.

  I purchased a 2014 ***** impala on Tuesday January 28, 2025. They assured me the vehicle went through all necessary inspections and was a great car. They promised to fix the bumper and told me I had 10 days 500 miles to bring the car back if any major problems arose with powertrain including engine and transmission. Within 3 days and less than the 500 miles the transmission hot idle signal came on and the engine was steaming. Took it to ********** for a Quick Look. He said the transmission fluid was contaminated and likely needs to be replaced. I sent the pictures over immediately on that third day. I texted them they need to take the car back. I brought it back on Monday still under 10 days and 500 miles. They tried fix the bumper but its still dented and now scratched. Also, they never looked into the trans and said nothing we can do because the code is now off. Then I said you can check the fluids and see something is off. They said sales has to pay them to do it. Sales said theyll pay to find out what wrong but they wont pay to fix it. He even smiled in my face. Whats the point of the 10 day 500 miles warrantee if it doesnt exist? I took it to a transmission shop and will be sending them the estimate. They do need to pay for it and my lawyer fees as they chose to not handle the matter on site. They gave me to option to pick a more expensive car that I cant afford.

  I visited this dealership because I was interested in a used vehicle on their lot that I noticed while driving by. I was greeted by friendly faces and allowed a short test drive of the vehicle. I was pleased, and made an appointment to return so that they may assess the value of my personal vehicle for a potential trade-in. The price of the vehicle was reasonable, but I noticed there were no "out-the-door" numbers available. Upon returning with my vehicle, I was once again greeted and given another short test drive while the value of my vehicle was assessed. I gave the keys to my vehicle to an employee with the assumption that they would move my vehicle to the shop for evaluation. Upon returning from the test drive, I noticed my vehicle had not been moved. I waited for approximately an hour while they were putting together numbers, all the while my vehicle remained in the spot I left it in and I was still without my keys. The salesman finally returned to the office he left me in and showed me the numbers they had put together. The dealer tried to pass almost $5,000 of extra fees including a non-removable ceramic coating to the interior and exterior, a GPS tracking service that was of course non-removable, and a destination fee.... on a used vehicle. I told the salesman I was no longer interested in the vehicle and requested my keys so that I may leave. The salesman acted as though he didn't hear me, and dragged me along for another 15 minutes. During this 15 minute period, I asked for the keys to my vehicle 4 separate times, each time receiving no response. The salesman then returned to the managers office. I went to the managers office myself and again requested the keys to my vehicle twice before finally receiving them. The salesman then walked to my car and basically begged me to reconsider. Since then, I have been contacted by the dealer over 20 times in texts and calls, even after requesting to be taken off their call list multiple times.

  *** not always giving accurate directions. It's mostly wrong and is worse with E, N, W, S prefixes. Basically was told map software is up to date. The service department was able to reproduce the problem. Instead of taking steps to work out a resolution, was told by multiple people to use my Apple Car Play with Maps on my iphone stating *** is not reliable on Nissan. I have had 4 Muranos and none ever had any problem using the *** until now, so I know it CAN work. If it can't be fixed, then replace the *** system on my Murano which I'm told is connected with the radio. I've gone through Nissan Consumer Affairs who stated there is nothing to fix. I've contacted BBB who referred me back to my dealership for a resolution. I feel like I'm being sent in circles.

  I am rejecting this response because: All the business did is tell me they got a new general manager that doesnt fix or solve my problem. They have done nothing to resolve my problem and I want to continue to file my complaints against them with the *** as well. The attorney general.

  I bought a 2023 nissan altima from Arlington Nissan in Arlington heights ********. We took possession of the car late at night. The next morning in the light i noticed a couple things like an dent on the roof of the car,some foam sticking out of the front glass, they put sentra mats in my altima which dont fit and missing air tire valve cover. Now when signing the documents on a tablet which is hard to read. I was told i had to get extra coverages for the car that i dont want. **** said i had too but i drive too many miles for gap coverage or any other items because they will be voided after a certain milage and i dont want them. I will have seat covers so why do i need fabric care. I have two keys so.i dont need smart key replacement . He tacked on like 3622 o extra coverages. Im Thinking this is.probably illegal to tell people they have to have it or they will add this into the cost of the car. I would like the extra items refunded because i didnt want them and didnt really know i was getting all of this even though he had me sign them. I called immediately the next day when i realized what the finance guy had me do but the general manager refuses to take my call or return a call.

  I am rejecting this response because: The phone number given to ask questions to *********************** is in correct. That number was for the Arlington Nissan but they gave me a number for Arlington lexus which i left 3 messages in 5 days because the instructions left were confusing because they didn't say the same things on what i was being charged. So it wasnt apples to apples. I tried to get help from *********************** like she offered but she failed to return any calls. I just want the 4 extra charges refunded. I already have seat covers for my car so fabric protection is mute. Please help. 
  
  Sincerely,

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. The general manager ************************* called and let me know he will be refunding two items by check to myself for about 2100 and sending about 1500 to the lienholder. He also said he will be mailing the correct floor maps by mail to my house. All this is satisfactory to me.

  I filed another complaint on the same issue because they lied just to get me to close the complaint. He had no intention of following through with what he said he was going  do which i thought when he called me and said he going to pay the ******* and send the floor mats directly to my house. The general manager of arlington heights nissan in illinois lied to the BBB and to me. 

  How do i file another report to reopen the case.

  I am writing to file a formal complaint against Arlington Nissan in Arlington Heights, ******** for selling me a lemon vehicle without disclosing this information during the purchase process.On November 27th, 2021, I purchased a 2017 Nissan Rogue vehicle from Arlington Nissan in Arlington Heights taking a loan out of $22,803.30. When I purchased the vehicle I was told the car was in an accident and that all necessary repairs were made. On February 17th, 2024 I went to Carmax in **********, ******** to get an appraisal offer on my vehicle and it was determined that the vehicle is a lemon due to numerous undisclosed defects and mechanical issues. The only thing I was told when I purchased this vehicle from one of your locations is that it was in an accident and the problems have been fixed. It was not disclosed to me nor is it stated in any of the documents provided to me and that I signed that the vehicle is a lemon. In fact, I would have NEVER bought the vehicle if I knew it was a LEMON. I am deeply disappointed and frustrated by the lack of transparency and honesty displayed by Arlington Nissan in Arlington Heights during the sale of this vehicle. I believe that I was intentionally misled and not provided with the necessary information about the true condition of the vehicle, which constitutes a violation of consumer rights and fair business practices.I have made multiple attempts to resolve this issue with the dealership directly (February 17th and 18th of 2024), but they have been uncooperative and unwilling to provide a satisfactory resolution. As a consumer, I feel taken advantage of for being a young woman at the time of purchasing this vehicle and believe that Arlington Nissan in Arlington Heights should be held accountable for their deceptive practices.I am seeking your assistance in investigating this matter and taking appropriate action against the dealership for their unethical and unlawful behavior.
