Recommend me a dealership/service related

They guys at Bowie Nissan any good? It's the next closest one to me. The rejects at Sheehy in Waldorf can piss off. Any other opinions? I'm having 7AT issues

They guys at Bowie Nissan any good? It's the next closest one to me. The rejects at Sheehy in Waldorf can piss off. Any other opinions? I'm having 7AT issues lately and think I'm going to be needing a warranty fix here soon.

Though I wouldn't recommend getting an alignment there. They didn't do the best job with mine. It wasn't terrible, but just a little off on one side.

To be fair though, I'm dropped on swifts with no rear camber arms. They said they couldn't do any more since I didn't have them, but I have had it done with the same setup before.

Yeah they didn't seem to mind any of my mods. They also helped out when EW was installing his intakes in the rain in their parking lot

Criswell Nissan in Germantown freaking RULES. The service manager is named Bob and the advisor I use is Will.

They were the ones that tried to fix my key fob issue 3x despite it being completely my fault and also just repainted my rear bumper. I actually brought them a ton of pizzas for lunch the last time they worked on the key fob problem because they're so damn nice.

As others have said, the Bowie guys have been super nice - but personally I have no work done there.

I usually go to Nissan Chantilly - superb customer service for me - no complaints about the mods - fix everything right the first time.

I just had my oil changed there with no problems. That said, I can't speak for any other type of work as I have not had any done there. The folks there have treated us as a group very well though so I would say give them a shot.
