Nissan CanadaAnmeldelser 

On April 9 2025 I wrote a review about the jeep I bought at Nissan in Orillia. It was concerning the manifold having a crack in it. It was repaired today at a cost of 695 dollars. I was shown the manifold and there were seven cracks in it. I don’t understand how a mechanic can miss that many. I believe the dealership was told about this but at the cost of fixing it they decided to overlook this. So with a winter storm upon us we did not drive the jeep much in first seven days. When we found out about it and told them, they brought up the seven day warranty. If they have treated a senior this way, how many other people have they ripped off.

Overcharging and upselling. This company will never get my business again. Charging 600 bucks for a new battery plus labour is a rip off. Bought new tires, rims and regular oil and services with this company. I will take my business elsewhere. Told us they gave us a car free for 2 days. No, I think I also paid for the car as well. Batteries don’t cost $600 bucks.Also don’t appreciate interference from a salesperson when I was dealing with service department.It was nothing to do with him and unprofessional.

I've never had such an atrocious customer service situation than I have had while dealing with Nissan Canada and their associated dealership, Macdonald nissan.

As many are now well aware, Nissan have a very serious issue involving their CVT transmissions resulting in complete failure. Which leads us to where we are today, a mother with two children and a vehicle with under a hundred thousand kilometers that is essentially now a yard ornament.

This issue is so prevalent that Nissan USA have extended their warranties to the area of 130000 kilometers. Mine has 99000. I contacted Nissan Canada to try and rectify the situation which lead to a rigorous run around involving multiple tow truck fees, a diagnostic fee, multiple false promises and a brand new crack in my windshield, thanks Macdonald Nissan.

To my surprise Nissan Canada doubled back on their word and decided to not follow through with an extended warranty and left me in the dark with my car sitting for weeks at Macdonald Nissan.

If you take anything from this, let it be the lesson that Nissan itself is to be avoided at all costs. Their poor quality parts, their uneducated dealerships, and their complete lack of communication are not worth the headache. They will take your money and leave you with a worthless pile of scrap metal. P.s. now I'm stuck paying off a car for two years that doesn't even run

Tl;DR: Nissan are crooks that sell faulty, unreliable vehicles from the factory then lie to you about helping. STAY AWAY!

Extreme delay on parts and horrible Customer Service – A Nightmare with Nissan

My 2024 Nissan Rogue SV has been undriveable since February 4 due to a collision, and for nearly two months, it is sitting at the repair center simply because Nissan cannot provide the necessary parts. I was initially given an ETA of March 7, which was pushed to March 12, March 17, March 20, and now March 24. Given this pattern of delays, I have no confidence this will be the final one. It’s completely unacceptable that parts for a brand-new 2024 model are unavailable across Canada while Nissan continues to produce new vehicles.

Severe Financial & Emotional Stress
• I’m still paying $1,200/month for a car I can’t use, while it sits at the repair center.
• I’ve spent hundreds of dollars on transit and Uber, with daily costs adding up to $60+.
• This situation has caused significant financial strain and emotional hardship, especially during winter conditions.
• My credit card is maxed out, my savings are drained, and I’m struggling to afford basic necessities—all because Nissan cannot supply parts for its own vehicle.

No Loaner, No Compensation – Just Excuses

When I purchased my insurance, I opted out of rental coverage because I never imagined that obtaining parts for a brand-new SUV would be an issue. This is not an old or discontinued model, yet Nissan has not provided a loaner vehicle or offered any financial compensation for the extreme delays they’ve caused.

Horrible Customer Service

Nissan Canada’s customer service is an absolute disaster. I was assigned a representative who:
• Gave vague and inconsistent answers.
• Refused to escalate my case or offer any real solutions, leaving me stuck with one unhelpful representative.

False Promises & Lack of Accountability

Nissan Canada promises customer satisfaction and claims to offer high-quality service, but my experience proves otherwise. These promises are just empty words. Once the deal is done, they turn their back on you. If Nissan can’t even supply parts for a brand-new car, how can they be trusted?

Final Thoughts

I understand that supply chain issues happen, but what matters most is how a company takes responsibility and supports its customers. At the end Nissan offer me $200 gift card which is not even enough for my 2 day trip where I spent close to $3000 just for commitment. Nissan has completely failed in that regard, leaving me stranded, frustrated, and unheard. Nissan is a regret.

We have Nissan Rogue for a 2 years back and it was superb Experience as we were new in Canada and bought new car and really appreciate their efforts and customer services with financing. I love to say we Thankful and loyal to Nissan.

I own a2023 Nissan Ariya. Over the last 2 years my car had died due to cold weather. I've had nothing but issue with this car. It's 10 Celsius, and my battery is at 83% and I only have 139km range. My model is all wheel drive and should give me 320km on a full charge. I've complained to Nissan about my issues. They always seem to skirt the issues and tell me "they found nothing on the diagnosis." My PS seatbelt is always registering there's a passenger in the seat. Over $70k, and I have a lemon with no support. Thanks for taking care of your customers Nissan. They need more R&D. I have many more experiences. And that is just the tip of the iceberg.

I had a very disappointing Sales Experience at Fish Creek Nissan. I have been a Nissan customer for over 30 years, but after this experience, I no longer trust the brand. While Nissan makes solid vehicles, the deceptive and frustrating sales process at Fish Creek Nissan has convinced me to take my business elsewhere.

Having previously purchased a vehicle from Stadium Nissan without issues, I expected a similar experience at Fish Creek Nissan, especially given its convenient location near my new home. Unfortunately, my experience with the sales department was frustrating and disappointing, making me regret not returning to Stadium Nissan.

Sales Experience: Aggressive, Misleading, and Lacking Follow-Through

From the beginning, I encountered high-pressure sales tactics, including persistent pushes to sign agreements quickly and disclose my credit card details before receiving clear information. The sales team provided incomplete and vague details, often evading my questions. There were also outright misrepresentations, such as being told that pre-paid installments would reduce interest—only to later find discrepancies in how my payments were applied.

The worst part was the lack of follow-through on promises. I was sold winter tires that I never received, and despite multiple follow-ups, the salesman never took accountability. After calling him for the fourth time, he simply shifted blame to the service department instead of resolving the issue.

Unclear and Restrictive Financing Model

The dealership strongly pushed Nissan Financing Canada but provided little to no information on how the financing actually worked. Unlike a mortgage, where borrowers receive amortization tables and clear breakdowns, I was given only vague, handwritten figures on blank sheets of paper.

When I asked about making lump-sum payments to reduce my principal faster, I received evasive answers. Worse, when I finally received my financing paperwork, there was no guidance on how to access my Nissan Financing Canada (NFC) portal. It took nearly a year of phone calls to gain proper access, during which time most of my payments went toward interest.

It genuinely feels like this lack of transparency is intentional, designed to prevent customers from paying off their loans faster.

Sales Management: More Concerned About Reviews Than Customer Satisfaction

When I raised concerns, the sales manager contacted me—apparently to fix the issues, but once I met with him I found no solutions but an ask to revise my review. Fish Creek Nissan provides customers with a checklist on how to rate them after a purchase, clearly prioritizing good ratings over genuine service improvement.

My wife left an honest review on DealerRater, and instead of addressing our concerns, the sales manager called us until we removed it. His compensation offer? A tank of gas. After reading other reviews, I noticed this is their usual tactic—offering gas in exchange for a better review rather than fixing the actual problems.

If they focused on real service excellence instead of damage control, they wouldn’t need to pressure customers into leaving good reviews.

Service Department: A Brighter Spot, But Still Room for Improvement

My experience with the service department has been better so far. They provided a reminder call, and the service advisor was professional and friendly at the front desk. Some of their efforts compensated for the poor sales experience.

However, when compared to Stadium Nissan, they still have room for improvement. I hope Fish Creek Nissan standardizes the customer experience across both departments and Nissan Canada ensures that all their dealerships offer consistent service standards.

Stay away from Nissan.
We have a Nissan Pathfinder.
After 25000 km, we started getting problem( Ac, break,electrical issues…) and the list is going on.
They dont stand by their products at all.
Do not make a mistake like us.

Stay away of Nissan Canada....worst service ever!! Front passanger seat won't warm up anymore due to electric fault on my Nissan Kicks. I have extended warranty that cover this electric repair but because they would have to replace the whole seat in order to do that, which not covered by the warranty, they refused to do it under warranty, they refused to take responsibility for part of the costs as proposed by local dealership, they firmly and constantly show ignorance and arrogance to my concern. So, be aware of what you pay for, because with Nissan Canada is what they have to gain, never about customer satisfaction.

Worst experience
Dealing with finance for a mortgage payout. Took them a month to provide a payout lease statement. Caused 20 days of interest because they made my mortgage renewal late. Then continued to take payments out of my account after it was paid in full.

This is to complain and inform potential purchasers of a vehicle to avoid Nissan (stay clear and wide). I take my reviews very seriously and I hate having to write any negative reviews while not recommending Nissan moving forward. This about the Nissan CVT settlement case and Nissans ability to not follow through on their commitment to their customers. Despite being told by the Myers service & warranty department orleans manager at the time, Tina Deschamps and Blair Dawes, that we met all the requirements to qualify for reimbursement through the CVT settlement case, we were denied My family has been a loyal Nissan purchaser for years who had a Sentra and Rogue presently. We were even offered a $3000 reimbursement through Nissan Canada for the repairs earlier, but this would not cover the majority of the cost associated with the repair. However, after further research, we found out that there was a case being brought against Nissan for this same CVT repair that would cover the majority of the cost. I am uncertain why we were denied after the service department recommended the CVT repair. It has been over 1-1/2 years now that I have held off on re-posting this review because the Stéphane Landriault the guest experience general manager at Myers Nissan Orleans was looking into our case but has not resolved it to our satisfaction.
I will no longer purchase any Nissan based on my recent experience. Our family usually buy Nissan but no more. This dealership brand might have gotten our $6000 now but will be denied our purchase of any additional vehicles our family may require. I am sure you can do the math besides our purchases, which they will be denied. I will personally tell our friends, their friends, and all our family members of our experience and to avoid buying Nissan. This seems to be the only language they comprehend is one that affects the bottom line of their company. At $60,000 or more, a vehicle multiplied over at least the 60 people I will make my mission to inform. It will deplete their bottom line by at least $3,600.00.
This has been an experience I will not repeat or wish anyone else to repeat by purchasing another Nissan. I know this Nissan dealership seem to have a good review, but I can tell you from my experience that they have individuals with issues remove their reviews in order to acquire the rating you see.
I would suggest that if you are looking for a new or used vehicle, you should look elsewhere to purchase one.
This additional information will bring forward my point clearly. I initially wrote a review several months ago. After which, I was contacted by their present service manager to take down the review because he would try and resolve this issue for me. However, although he might have tried, there was nothing forthcoming. Which only meant this was a lot of lip service, and nothing substantial came out of my removal of that negative review. This is why I am now resubmitting this same review and amended to include these additional facts.
I also now understand why Nissan was originally considering merging with Honda and Mitsubishi. However, Mitsubishi Motors is considering not joining planned Nissan-Honda merger ...
I would stay far away from Nissan despite their pending affiliation with Honda.

A VERY Unsatisfied Customer

Nissan belvedere, st jerome. Horrible experience, I told them I was going to see the vehicle within the hour, when I got there they had the truck in the back started and ready, they salesman’s were all smoking cigarettes, very unprofessional. They pushed me to buy and sign for a used 2020 truck with low mileage, they didn’t want me to inspect it because they said they do a 100 point inspection and as if they had something to hide, I saw it in there faces.They wanted to sell me a VIP package of 1400$ which is useless carwash,lemon scent,100 point inspection, change filter,oil,1 month guarantee which is normal stuff there suppose to do at no cost,then decided to sell it to me at 999$,then eventually offered it for free. They can’t be trusted, surprisingly since it’s an official Nissan dealership, and not a small dealer on the corner. Would not ever buy a Nissan off of them.You can tell there hungry, and don’t have many sales a year.I sent an inspector anyways at my cost, and they didn’t want to give him the keys when he arrived.They asked him who sent you the insurance or the client, Eventually he did the inspection,and found multiple problems,door was repainted/replaced and not well done from the inside, leaking muffler, rusted brakes,warped brakes, engine cover leaking oil for some time,tires not original & older then the vehicle, which he explained and sent pictures to me with a full report. Lots of problems for a slighty used truck and low mileage,to my eyes it’s a flooded vehicle. The dealer is suppose to do an inspection before selling the car,which they didn’t or they did not disclose the problems to me. I was gonna spend all that money to get screwed.They told me it was perfect,and I’m sure they knew all about the real history.I understand why they have 1 star reviews, stay away at all costs.Not right to do that to customers.On top of that I was gonna leave a deposit and they said ok,but afterwards just wrote down my credit card number with the expiration date,very strange. I lost my money for the inspection but got a peace of mind and save myself lots of headaches.They try to pull a fast one which they didn’t succeed.The so called manager with a bad attitude did the paint test infront of me because he didn’t want the inspector to do it,which his scanner was not accurate so every number that came up,he told me he said was normal,which clearly wasn’t on the door the car had been accidented.Go to a real dealer in the city,don’t waste your time.After inspection they disagreed they told me I could have the car inspected and didn’t stop me,and even the inspector said I had 3 salesman’s that surrounded me and gave me issues upon arrival.They told me they don’t have to inspect the vehicle before selling, only when delivered. Which they won’t say the issues because if they get away with it in 30 days it’s not there problem anymore,Very dishonest.They believe there own lies. I lost 200$ but saved 54,000+ tax

The Poorest after-buy service provider is Nissan. My brand-new car (only one-month-old) has been at a body shop for the last two months, and Nissan cannot provide the required parts. The ETA for the parts is the end of February. I would say never buy a Nissan

There should be a zero star option for this company. These people are con artists. They told us to pay $7000 CAD to fix our Nissan Leaf. We were skeptical as to why it would cost so much, but were told this was the price, so we paid it. While waiting for them to get the parts and fix the issue, we asked for a loaner vehicle. They did not give us one. So we accommodated for 4 weeks. My 65 year old dad with a heart condition, had to take the bus for 4 hours every day in the freezing cold winter weather. A day after we got the car back, the car stopped in the middle of the road again. We again had the car towed to Nissan Ajax. This time they said it was an issue with the battery and asked us to pay another $500 CAD. My dad paid the money, and waited another 2 weeks for them to fix it. They again said no to giving us a loaner vehicle. Over a month had gone by, they returned the car to us, and yet again the car stopped in the middle of the road. The car was towed for a third time. Now they are saying they don't know when it will be fixed, and are still refusing to give my dad a loaner vehicle, stating the car has past its warranty date. If they told us the first time they did a diagnosis that the car may still not work, we would've used the $7000 on a new car. They lied to us about our car being fixed, manipulated us, and wasted our time. We are extremely frustrated and will not recommend Nissan to anyone going forward. They have the worst customer service from any company I've encountered. I hope people learn something from this disappointing experience.

Update Jan 23, 2025: They told us to pay $15,000 for additional repairs or pick up the vehicle. We never would've paid the original $7000 if we knew it wouldn't fix the vehicle. We don't have $22,000 for repairs. We asked them to keep the car parts, and give us the money back multiple times, they denied doing anything wrong and told us to go to court if we wanted the money back. We don't have money to hire a lawyer and fight this in court. It's upsetting how these companies are taking advantage of the common citizen. They shouldn't have asked for payment when they didn't fix the vehicle. Horrifying experience. I only see it getting worse with Nissan Canada very soon.

Update Jan 7, 2025: They gave us a loaner vehicle after we persistently requested for a month, and they still haven't returned our Nissan leaf and haven't provided a timeline for when it will be fixed.

I have a 2019 Nissan Rogue. At first, the shocks leaked at 67K, and after 127K, an electrical problem occurred. In both cases, Nissan Canada customer service said that it was out of warranty. To grab the money, the Nissan dealer opened a Tech line ticket, which in my opinion, is a way of shifting the problem to Nissan Canada, leaving you as a customer not knowing who to talk to. My Nissan Rogue has been at the shop (DIRECT NISSAN- Mississauga) for three weeks, and they still can't find the problem. In my opinion, NEVER BUY a Nissan. It is better to buy a Honda or Toyota.

Overall I'm happy with my 2021 Rogue. However I recently took it to the mechanic for service and found out the tires need to be replaced. I only have 20,500 km's on the vehicle. Even the cheapest ties I've had last about 50,000 km so I am very unhappy with this. The brand name of the tires is Hankook.

2019 nissan rougue with only 65000 kms on it. 6 months out of warrany and the cvt transmission failed. Over 8000 to replace and nissan will not cover any costs due to the vehicle was never serviced at the nissan dealer. Every repair shop i called said stay away from these. Very poor customer service!

Nissan Finance Canada's shady business practices are something any Nissan owner who has financed or leased a vehicle should be aware of. I am one of those customers. My Nissan vehicle was written off in an accident back in September of this year.

The first issue with the company was that once the proof of loss from my insurance company was issued to them, they responded that it would take up to 10 business days to review and accept or decline the proof of loss. Having had to call numerous times in that 10 business day time frame, on the 10th day they accepted the proof of loss from my insurance company. That was on October 24th. On October 25th, my insurance company sent a check via courier to Nissan. Nissan received and signed for the cheque on October 29th.

I called them that day to confirm that they had received it, which they had. Also, I inquired about when I would be paid out the difference owed to me after the value of the vehicle was deducted from the total. An employee told me it would be no later than mid-week of November 4th.

I reached out again to inquire about the status as I was in the middle of a new vehicle negotiation. The deal was to be made at the end of the week of the 4th. Now, when I talked to the first customer service representative (CSR) on November 1st, I was told there was a mistake made on the file about how much I was to receive back. I was told it wasn't a big deal and to call again on the 4th of November. They assured me that everything was okay, that the check had cleared and they had closed my account that day.

That's when I asked again if the money owed to me would be deposited into my account mid-week of November 4th. The CSR replied that it would take up to 20 business days for me to receive my settlement! I said to him that this was not acceptable, and I asked to speak to someone else above him to understand exactly what was happening. He said he had to put me on hold and someone would answer me. However, I was on hold for over 2.5 hours before I hung up!

In the meantime, my wife called from her phone and was hung up on before anyone even said anything on the other end, after waiting for another half an hour. When I called back again and got through to another CSR after 25 minutes, I was told the same thing: I'd have to call on Monday, that I couldn't talk to anyone today and it would be about 10-15 business days to receive the money after my account was closed.

At this point I was upset, so my wife took over for me. While my wife was in mid-sentence, she was hung up on. Now we were both upset with how this was going and called back for the fourth time! The next CSR knew we were upset, and my wife took the phone again to talk to that person. They had a conversation and the CSR said that we would have to call again on Monday.

So our issues are that we spent over 3 hours on the phone trying to have our questions addressed and clarified, with no real answer or outcome. We were ignored, put on hold, and hung up on multiple times. The fact that Nissan has closed my account with them as they have now received the money from my insurance company, but won't release my funds to me is bothering me. If they take 20 business days before they send me my portion, they are making interest on my money of 20k.

How is this a good business practice? Is this how you treat your loyal customer of just under 20 years of buying vehicles from you? I was a loyal customer but being treated this way is not acceptable, I believe, in anyone's eyes.

When Nissan Ariya is sold, it is claimed that it can travel 500 kilometers, but in reality, it only reaches a maximum of 350 kilometers, and in winter, this number drops to 250 kilometers.
"I am dissatisfied with the purchase of the Nissan Ariya and will discourage all my friends and acquaintances from buying Nissan. If Nissan values its reputation, it should take back my car."

Brand new Rogue off the lot. Rear wheel trim piece was broken. They said I broke it and had to pay for a new one. I was so angry with them accusing me. I had not opened the rear doors for 2 weeks until we put our granddaughter in the back and heard it jiggle. That was in April of 2024. My next visit a scheduled oil change appointment at 8:45 past 10:30 and still waiting for them to take the vehicle in. Gosh they are horrible.
