Most Stupid Thing Heard From a Nissan Dealer

MicntaeG35

I got one i would love to add to this thread. I was shopping around for a 370z a couple of years ago to trade for my G35. I spent the whole afternoon going dealer to dealer looking for what I wanted. I finally found a black nismo in Sylacauga, AL. We talked about the car and finances for a little bit and I was about to take it for a test drive. As I'm standing there waiting for them to find the keys, one of the employees is standing there telling me about some of his old sports cars and starts to talk about the Z. He tells me that the Z had adjustable sport sususpension that adjust with the push of a button (the SRM button). I was know fool but I wanted to play along. I said "oh really? what exactly does it do?" He goes on to tell me that when you turn it on and off, it tightens/loosens the springs. After I hear enough stupidity from this guy I finally had to ruin it for him that the little "s-mode" button has nothing to do with suspension haha his face got real red when I told him to ride with me and showed him what it really did. Just goes to show that some salesmen haven't the slightest clue about the vehicles on their lot haha

When I was half looking to find a Z I was with a friend of mine who was going to replace her '99 Maxima with either a new one or an Altima with the 6.
As we walked onto the lot a salesperson came up, flipped her info pad open and asked for my phone number and name before we even got past hello.
My friend was the one we were there shopping for, not me, but I figured I WAS looking so I thought no harm in that. I explained that I was interested in a 370 if she could find me the right one. I stipulated that it had to be a coupe, A7 and not black. A couple of weekends later we were back again and the dealer had a 2015 MB M6 vert being prepped in the wash bay. Not two days later I get a call, you guessed it, she had a new black convertible I might be interested in.
WTF? Why would you even waste your breath, and my time. I didn't even return the call, but you can guess how that would've gone.
My friend had originally bought her Maxima from that dealership in 2000 and wanted to buy from them again since she'd had every service done there and had relationship with them. They had such limited inventory and screwed around so much she bought elsewhere. I also bought my Z elsewhere (that's another story) and also bought a new Murano for my kid, also elsewhere.
Three sales lost due to the utter incompetence of two salespersons.

Soo glad this is a thread! When I had my csc fixed under warranty the dealer moved my shifter block off plate so it slid past 5th/6th making it an effort to find those gears. I told the tech and he said " its a short ratio gear box, thats just how it is" .... I really wish I was lying

Oh also asked the dealer to change my tranny fluid to redline which I supplied while in for the csc. they told me it would make my synchros stick. I was waiting for them to say motul 600 was bad clutch fluid next

Not a nissan dealer but I was looking at a roush in a ford showroom when I dropped my work truck off. I was curious and looking at the stock rear tire size on a stage 2 and a salesman goes "thats just a body kit you know". Literally made me angry lol
