I'm very happy with how the service department has worked to maintain my Pathfinder. Is it costly? Yeah, but what dealership isn't?! That's not the tech's fault. They are prompt to set up appointments (and change last minute when something comes up and I need to reschedule!) and get the work done quickly. The waiting room is clean and open - with a quiet room for working in with tables/chairs. I'm very satisfied with my experience here. read more

Have you ever heard the one about the dishonest car dealership who attempts to hoodwink the customer at every turn, or maybe the one about the snake-oil-salesperson who works at a place such as this? These very tales may have originated right at Nielson Nissan in Stanhope, NJ! Let's see. Brought the vehicle in for 3 codes: 2 emissions (P0456, P059E) and 1 transmission (P17F1). Nissan charged $219 x 2 for the diagnosis alone (saying that these fees would be reduced from the final charge if we did the work with them). The trans recommendation was a new valve body (2k quoted). The emissions codes were $1600 quoted. When we told them yes, do the transmission but not the emissions codes, as we can get those done for $1,000 cheaper at our local mechanic, Nissan started moving the goal posts. First, they increased the price of the transmission work by $200. Next, they called back saying that we might as well do the 1 emission code with them at least so that the original $219 diagnostic can be returned to us. We naively agreed to that premise and were expecting a total charge around $2500. When we went to pick up the vehicle, we brought a valid digital coupon code for 10% off which we obtained directly from the Nielson Nissan website (and were anticipating something like another $250 off the bill). The service desk people pretended that only certain managers can honor the discount who don't work that day, and asked if we wanted to drive back another day (40 minutes from our house with 3 young children in the car). Of course we did not want to do that, and then the Nissan team said it has to be $100 max discount for reasons not explained in the coupon code. The final bill - with a $100 discount - was near $3,000 somehow, and appears that the promised $219 diagnostic credit mentioned earlier was a ploy to get us to fix one of the codes. That $219 was a charge on the final bill. Service Rep Mary relayed information back and forth to us throughout the process, however, we did not appreciate the prices changing, nor the $219 credit not coming back, nor the $10% coupon not being honored, which should have been closer to $300, not $100. In our estimation, Nissan over-charged us around $500 on these repairs and was dishonest throughout. Highly recommend avoiding Nielson Nissan. We're curious to see if the company replies, but I'm sure if they do, it will be with the usual snake oil math which dealerships are known for when fleecing customers. Happy to amend this review if the company wishes to discuss a credit, but not holding our breaths. read more

Don't bring your car here. We had our Nissan Rogue in for major front-end work starting on Friday morning. The repair itself was large, and we understood that -- but the communication throughout the 6-day process was extremely poor. We received very few updates unless we reached out, and when we asked about a loaner we were only offered a paid rental (first at $30/day, then "discounted" to $20/day). For almost a week without a car, no complimentary accommodations were offered. At one point I was told the repair couldn't be completed because our service advisor was out for a day and she was the only person who could finish the paperwork. The repair itself seems fine now that we finally have the car back, but the customer service and communication were way below expectations, especially for a multi-day, nearly $4,000 repair. Hopefully management improves the process for future customers. read more

Be careful what tires are on your vehicle when you purchase a vehicle here. I bought a brand new 2023 Rogue SV Sport here for close to $40,000. This rogue has a governor on the accelerator, so you can't go too fast really quickly. I do not speed around or beat up my car. I drive for amazon. After 20,000 miles, my factory tires are not even 14 months old after purchase. I need new tires already. I spoke to my sales rep, the service rep, and the service manager. They told me there was no warranty on the factory tires and told me to call consumer affairs for nissan. I shouldn't have to do this on a brand new car. The bottom line is if you're going to buy a car here, I guess you should be expecting them to take advantage of you, because that's how I feel about my experience. Needless to say, I won't be buying another vehicle here after feeling like this. It's ridiculous to need new tires and spending 1,000 dollars on tires after 1 year on a brand new car and only 20,000 miles. Nissan was aware of this situation being a problem and them giving you poor tires on new factory tires. Unfortunately, they pretty much told me that was my problem. I had a great experience with my sales re the woman that sold me the car "Rhee". When I purchased the vehicle, everything was smooth and enjoyable and also a fast experience. So that made me comfortable with Nissan and was hoping to build a relationship here for future purchases. Unfortunately, this tire experience has changed my thoughts. If they are willing to practice poor standards on tires service knowing this, then what else would they be willing to not stand behind? read more

Check engine light came on. Had it checked out. Said I needed a grill shutter. Said it was covered under my warranty. The OEM part from Nissan is about $375. 2 days later the call and say sorry we made a mistake. The warranty doesn't cover it. The bill is $1100. They actually charged $800 for the part. Unbelievable gouging. I do not recommend going anywhere near that ripoff shop. I will NEVER go there again. read more

Stay clear of the shady finance team in this location, will sell you a bag of goods and not hold up on the promises. They will lie to you at every turn to get you to upgrade your purchase with faulty information. Look elsewhere ! read more

Ever since Nielsen took over this dealership, they have been a nightmare to deal with. When we first purchased our lease, we got a package of free oil changes to use. Nielsen bought the dealership a year into our lease and didn't honor that package anymore. They didn't bother to update us though and we got the news and a $100 bill at the service dept for a simple oil change. Since then, every time we go in for a new lease they charge us more and more and we get less and less. Today I blew out my tire while driving and went to grab a spare, only to discover that they didn't supply a spare tire in our vehicle. I called the dealership and was told "we don't give spares anymore". When I asked why, the representative on the phone said, "I don't know, I just work here". What kind of answer is that?! They didn't bother to mention that detail to us during the THREE HOURS it took for them to process our new lease. So now I have a $150 tow bill on top of the other hefty bill to replace all tires. After being a customer for over 7 years with this dealership, we are done. They do not value their customers or their employees. read more

Where do I start. 3 times I showed up to service 20 minutes before closing to be able to talk to a service rep and they closed/left early every time. Then I finally take my car in, they tell me what to change, I spend 2000 dollars. They don't fix it and then tell me I need to pay for another diagnostics. Scam artists and lazy excuses for mechanics read more

I called to inquire about a car and Josh helped me out the next day. I left in a brand new Altima and I love it! He was by far the best car salesman I have ever dealt with, highly recommended!! read more

Stay away! They changed Service staff with Nielsen's purchase of Nissan Stanhope and it's not an improvement, at least as far as the service writers go. Great for the owners, they want to gouge you at every turn. Time to dump the still under warranty POS with CVT for something with a real transmission. read more

Not shocked to see their horrible rating. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS DEALERSHIP! They have no ethics or morals. I bought a used vehicle from them. I at the time was leasing a Nissan Altima with 3 payments left ($749.00). I asked them to come down that amount on the price of the used truck. They advised they would and they would pay off the lease and I can bring my Altima to them and they would turn it in. I live in PA 2 hours away and always thought I had to turn my vehicle in at the dealership I bought it. They advised me no. I asked are you sure? They said yes. I asked if there will be any fees I will have to pay bc I don't want to get a bill a month from now. The salesman and finance guy ASSURED me everything will be taken care of with my Altima lease. A month later I get a $421 disposition fee. The dealership gave me their word I would not be out of pocket any money if I turn my lease into them. The manager calls me back and states, "everyone knows there is a disposition fee." If everyone knows there is a disposition fee, ESPECIALLY the "expert Nissan salesman/finance employees," then why wouldn't they tell me that before hand? The manager was so condescending and said I should of read my lease contract almost 2 years after I leased the vehicle before I traded it in at their dealership read more

My convertible top jammed on my 2011 Murano. The quote to fix it was $3500. It sat for a week until the parts arrived. The installation either was wrongly done or not the problem at all, because they wanted $16000 for a new top on top of the "work" they did. The car was deemed a total loss by Farmers insurance. The dealership held the car until they got PAID the $3500. Really? What a bunch of crooks... And on top of that they gave me attitude. Thanks a lot Anthony. You didn't even have the guts to show yourself when I came to empty my car. read more

great staff very helpful from the no pressure sales to the service. stopped in with no appointment one day and took care of my issue and washed my car. read more

Great dealership. Sales people greet you with a smile and they don't pressure you into buying or leasing a car. They will work with you to get you the best price they can. They are very straight forward and what they tell you is true. You don't feel like they are trying to rip you off. The dealership is very clean and well set up. You can browse the cars in the showroom without every sales person asking if they can help you. I am very impressed with this dealership. I would recommend people to come to mission of Stanhope. Not only are they friendly but their cars are good. read more

To say that this dealership is bad, is putting it lightly, most notably their service department. I had scheduled an appointment a week prior (phone call) with a female who works in service for a simple oil change, yet they never made sure that it was correctly put into the system. I came in yesterday 7/13/2022, driving 30 minutes out of my way to get this job done, and they claimed that an appointment had never been set. The best that they could do is waiting 2 hours to appease my needs. There was also another incident 6 months ago in which they had me wait 2 1/2 to 3 hours for the same job (oil change) mentioned above. Over the years, I have purchased several Nissan vehicles through this dealership. Because of the failure to meet my needs, and lack of consistency, they have permanently lost me as a customer, therefore I do not recommend doing business with them. read more

Great experience at the old Lynn's while trading in my Forester for a Frontier. As soon as I walked in the door I was greeted and led to an associate. Everyone was cordial and polite. My sales associate Daniel Poinsett was very attentive to my needs and did a great job of putting me in the vehicle I wanted within a price I could afford from the Edmunds online tool for my trade along with the internet price for the buy. No hassle, even got surprised that they offered me more for my trade than I expected! The paperwork went smoothly with Marcelis Harris in finance and he supplied me with a very nice explanation of the nitty gritty along with a very affordable bumper to bumper warranty. It was many years ago in the past that I had did business with Lynn's and I got a great deal back then also. I would highly recommend Nissan of Stanhope to anyone looking for a great buyer experience. read more

Rude sales people. Rude receptionist. Walked out. If I could it would be no stars. Was not willing to work with me at all. Just an attitude backed answer. read more

I recently purchased a certified pre-owned car from Lynnes in Stanhope. The manager, Jim, went above and beyond in making sure I was taken care of during the sale and servicing of my new vehicle. If you go to Lynnes, be sure to ask for Jim Desimone. read more

I had been dealing with the lynnes Nissan for about 20 years and bought over 10 vehicles from them and always had great dealings with the service department. But Nielsen Nissan is not the same. I got a recall notice of a safety concern with a hood latch and called to correct it. They didn't seemed concerned and wouldn't give me an appointment for over a week. Lynnes had in that day or the next. I guess Nielsen doesn't take customer care seriously. I will try another Nissan dealer from now on. read more

I bought my car here in 2013 and have been coming back for service it since then! Alex, Joe and Pernell are the Three Musketeers of the Service Department! Always helpful, efficient, informative and just plain KIND. The people that run this place are what makes it great! read more

Nielsen Nissan - Auto Repair Near Me - Stanhope, New Jersey

Worst experience ever...purchased a used Rouge the duped me on the number of months on the contract...It goes to show you that you have to really watch when they write numbers on a piece of scrap paper with lines drawn to the number of months and the monthly price. Especially when you are negotiating back and forth with the salesmen and the manager. I really feel that we were not on the same page and it was obvious when it came down to the final signing......very bad experience would not recommend this dealer to anyone read more

If you see Jose run the other way!!! In case the large amount of negative reviews about this place weren't enough here is one more. We purchased a preowned car from here and brought It for a routine check and oil change three months later. We got this nice printout that said everything was perfect with the car (convenient). For the next oil change we decided to use valvoline instead. They said the car had many issues that were pretty obviously there when the car was purchased. It was to the point that they told us to mention the lemon law to this dealership. I have to say Anthony in service was very nice and helpful. He treated us very fairly and compassionately. When speaking with Jose the "general manager" we received the opposite treatment. First of all he claimed that car batteries only last about 9 months. Now I'm not a car expert but I do have google and this simply isn't true. You should never lie to a customer and treat them like they don't know any better. Secondly he blamed us and tried to say it's possible it's because we left the lights on. He refused to take any accountability for this and the best the he could offer was 15-20% off. On top of that the phone call ended with him saying "I don't expect to see you around here again" (very professional). How anyone hired this guy in dress clothes and sneakers to be a general manager is beyond me. read more

Helped my parents purchase a Nissan Sentra here after 2 Honda Dealers trip to up charge 8k on a car while paying cash. Came here and couldn't be happier. Gary Demayo was a great, knowledgeable, friendly salesman. He wasn't pushy and was upfront about all the costs that would be added like taxes and document fees (which weren't bad). We would totally recommend him and the dealership there. Pleasant experience purchasing from them. read more

Be on your guard. Got price of 20k for a vehicle. Then sales started adding up extra fees. Turned out it was an extra 5 grand from sales price. Add extra fee to pay for building maintenance, staff, utilities,. Wanted to charge me prep fee, which I get but they wanted to include the new tires they put on car. Went to a different car dealer the next day and found what I wanted with no extra nonsense read more

Ha ha! I always worked in Manahattan and just got a two year consulting gig at Princeton University. My car was old and I needed a new car for the commute. Nissan of Stanhope had a nice Volvo advertised and I came with my checkbook. I arrived in coveralls because I'm building a new 50' offshore yacht on the weekends. It's my second boat building endeavor and I didn't worry about cleaning up. They looked at me like I was a janitor and ignored me. I left and bought a nice Volvo in East Hanover. The place gets low ratings for a reason. Keep up the good work all!! read more

see the email below that was sent to the service manager with no response as of yet. self expanatory. . . . Good Evening, I am writing to you to let you know my level of disgust with how your service dept tried to take advantage of my girlfriend while she was having her car's oil changed this past Friday. She received a call that the oil change was done, and her car would be ready to be picked up shortly after 1pm, but that her front brakes DESPERATELY needed to be replaced. "They need to be replaced IMMEDIATELY before the end of the weekend," were the exact words she was given. After I set everything up to get ready to do this work myself, I found that the brakes have about 80% of their life left. NOT what I expected from a dealership that we purchased her car from. This has left a bad taste in my mouth, and will probably not be returning for future car purchases or service. see attached pictures. I would like to know what your service technician saw that would make them think she needed to have replaced IMMEDIATELY. read more

See all

Great new service staff! Would recommend to everyone, they answered all my questions and had my vehicle cleaned and serviced rite on time!! Thank you! read more

Let me start by saying the only reason I'm rating them one star is because there is no option for zero. The service manager Bob should not be allowed to deal with human beings at all has no customer service skills and is the type of person that will destroy someone's business. The owner of this place should really consider this guys employment there. Treats customers like trash even though he is the only trashy thing in there. Now let's go on to the the guy who inspects the cars he really needs to be trained again because he can't even tell the difference between vehicle damage and dirt. If anyone reading this values their time and money do not service or buy vehicles from this place. I just wonder if all other Nielsen dealers are the same? The only thing I can gather based on this experience is that they are if they hire people like bob and employees who are not properly trained to do their jobs. read more

Why after buying s vehicle and paying for the document fees I still have to go to MV to get an inspection sticker for the window.

I took my car here for new brakes. A couple of weeks afterwards, I noticed a noise and vibration, particularly at higher speeds. I took it to another Nissan dealer who informed me that only 2 of 5 lug nuts were put on the front passenger tire, and that tire had become loose. It was so careless of a mistake that they assumed it must have been something that I or a friend did. They also mentioned that this was very dangerous and could have resulted in serious harm to me and my passengers if I hadn't gotten it fixed when I did. Fortunately, they quickly fixed this for a very small fee. I'm very disappointed that this Nissan dealer was so careless to not put a tire on properly. Extremely unprofessional! read more

No communication when talking to lady at service department on phone. Would not give me a direct answer to a question I asked several times. Would NEVER EVER buy another Nissan! read more

This is the absolute worst car dealer! They have terrible service, and are absolutely horrible with customer satisfaction! I got a used car from them about a month ago and I have had to make 5 trips back just for them to tell me services can't be done at that time. They even gave me the wrong license plate and registration and didn't realize it until a month later! I seriously recommend you NEVER go here! read more

Great trustworthy service. Thanks Anthony.great service and accommodating. Appointment was taken right on time. Job took exact time stated. Overall , a positive experience. read more

Beware of the good reviews prior to 2018, those are for Lynne's Nissan, the previous owners. I leased a car in June 2017, and was promised complimentary oil changes for the life of the lease. Stanhope Nissan is not honoring this! If they are this cheap with existing clients for simple oil changes, how are they conducting their business in other areas? Once the lease is up, I'll move on and hopefully find a dealership that has integrity, it's lacking here. Business 101: it's cheaper to retain an existing client than it is to acquire a new one. read more

This is quite possibly the worst dealership on the surface of the earth. If you want a complete piece of garbage then this is the place for you. The vehicle I purchased was advertised as "Certified Pre-owned". I'm not sure why it costs $500 to actually get that given that it was advertised as such. Should have been part of the advertised price. Also, 11 months after I bought my gigantic piece of junk the engine went on it, and they wouldn't cover it under the warranty. The idiot at the service department told me the cheapest they could replace it for was going to be $9,500. I went to another dealership and had it done for roughly $6,700. The vehicle was only 10 months old and they wanted to soak me for another $9,500. Please, do yourself a huge favor and never buy a Nissan or anything else from this dealership. It will be a complete nightmare. The salesman, Dan, was hounding me to write him a sparkling review. Well, here you go Dan-O...here's your review. This place is a complete dumpster fire. If I could have given less than one star I certainly would have. If it would allow me to give negative stars for a rating this place would get -5 stars. read more

WORST CAR DEALERSHIP EVER!! The employees lack customer service skills, and do business very poorly here! After my last encounter I give up on this place! I Brought my car to get serviced, afterwards I received an email offering a Free oil change if I complete their survey on my experience. I filled out the survey and called them to confirm my oil change. They denied my free oil change because my survey wasn't positive enough for their liking. Isn't a survey suppose to be HONEST? I'm disguised. DO NOT do business with this dealership their a JOKe read more

I went to this dealer yesterday took me about an hour but what I can really say about this dealer is that they really took good care of me they helped me the best way possible and didn't lie to me and kept it a buck with me and they are really nice and friendly if you're planning on buying a car from her I would recommend doing so just as long as you know what car you're going in there for everything should be quick and easy and i would recommend going with Hassam siddiqui he's a great person and will take care of you 5 star rating read more

As of today I had to delete my 5 star rating for this dealership....BUYER BEWARE...Stay away from this place!! Unless you want the General Manager of Sales, banging his fist on the Salesman desk, backing you into a corner and telling you that "He" did you a favor by begging his Banker to get us a loan. You my friend not only acted like a 2 year old, but banging on your Salesmans desk will get you absolutely no where!! So glad we went to a different dealership, and yes we got approved at a lower rate and a handshake...You even took off and left your Salesman finish up your dirty work...NEVER AGAIN!! read more

THE WORSE EXPERIENCE EVER BUYING A CAR! ZERO service after the sale. They didn't pay off my trade until I was receiving harassing phone calls from the lender, impacting MY good credit! Salesperson, Felipe, never followed up with me on anything; didn't even call me back when I called him. General Manager, Jim, was rude and nasty. They also withheld my registration on the new vehicle and had me pay them more than originally agreed to. SCHIESTERS!!! I do NOT recommend them and would never buy from again! read more
