Hi,
I am considering purchasing a new Nissan car. It would be most
helpful if people posted their experiences (good and esp. bad) with
area Nissan dealers. This is the first time I will be dealing with
dealers, so it is very important for me to know about peoples'
experiences. The Nissan website lists four pgh area dealers, McMinn,
west liberty ave, Spitzer M'ville, Bowser in Pleasant hills and Wright
automotive group, wexford.
Thanks much,
--

If you are anywhere on the west side of the city, consider West Hills Nissan (1092 Beers School Road, Coraopolis, PA 15108). It is very close to where the old Airport used to be. I leased one from a dealership that then closed, so when the lease expired the people at West Hills were very helpful and spent their time getting me a bank loan (bad credit and income) to buy the remaining balance of the vehicle with an affordable payment plan. I had a very bad experience with a service person at 'Bill Gray' Nissan 3 or 4 years ago - he tried to get me to authorize mechanical work that I know was not neccessary at all, or even a good idea (He said that 'cutting' the surface of the brake rotors was needed. When I asked back 'needed?' he changed his position to 'recommended' just to *prevent* future brake noise. And then he showed me a completely normal, thin ring of rust in a groove at the edge of the disk, as though that would scare me into resurfacing the rotors. Absolute rip-off - it could have actually shortened the life of the disks by damaging them). That was the dealership on West Liberty Avenue then. BUT that business has been taken over by new owners, McMinn, so I don't know anything about them now. Good Luck, -Ed

I had one horrific experience with Bill Gray...well not its McMinn's. I'm not sure how they are but Bill Gray sales person was horrible. She stood me up my car wasn't ready but I am happy with my purchase just a bad dealer.
