The service advisor says the car will take about an hour, I say ok even though it should only be 30 minutes. As I am waiting I goto the service department and ask if they have the clear corner lights. I am told they have the FACTORY "real Nissan parts" that are the same all over the U.S. therefore I asked if I could see one. He takes it out of the box, and it's just one piece in orange for $45. WTF is that! Courtesy sells both for $45 together in clear with the bulbs right.
Is Courtesy Nissan "different" from other dealerships, in the way of carrying different "more" parts than others?
Anyway after that I go to see the AE 2001 Maxima to kill some time. Well an hour has passed, and my car still hasn't gone inside, so back to the S.A. and asked what's going on, I get no straight response. I left, and got a call 4 hours later. The S.A. says yer car is ready "chief" , I said it should have been ready a long time ago "dip****" . Damn warranty!

It says it on the coupon, but it has a *fine print. 30 minutes since the car goes on the rack.

I agree

Nissan service is typically crap. I NEVER had a good experience, and this after giving second chances and going to other dealerships.

I spoke to the folks at Coutesy Nissan today about some prices for a few items. I asked them if each Nissan dealer is free to set thier own prices for parts, and I was told that they can do that. So it pays to shop around.

same here with fogs

long story short was that I got a chance to check out a few other Nissan's places for prices on a pair of foglights--and this one nissan dealer wanted 190 for one light--ONE LIGHT!! that is nuts.
courtesy had the entire set for 165 (with member discount)--and I said to them "sure--send it UPS--thank you!!)
