Thievery at its finest. ********s.

On the 12th of April I took my NP300 for a service to Nissan Groblersdal. 500m before getting to the dealer, the bakkie overheated for the first time.

We took the bakkie in the dealer for a service, 30 minutes later they told me we’d have to take apart the engine. Without proper diagnostics, full report analysis of the car before deciding to take apart the engine.

Nissan, took more than a week to get back to me. Afterwards, they send me a quotation for a new engine which will cost over 90k. Upon asking what the problem was, they do not have answers.

I fetched my bakkie, with its engine stripped. And then refusing to assemble it back, saying I have to pay the full amount before they can do anything.

After consulting other mechanics, the issue they had to resolve is replacing the water pipe which had rust which would cost less than 1000. Nissan Groblersdal hasn’t done anything to resolve the problem they caused.

Even after lodging a complaint at Motor Industy Ombudsman, they avoid answering emails, to this day they haven’t provided full diagnosis of why they had to stripe the vehicle.

Simply put Nissan Groblersdal, Nissan South Africa and Nissan Worldwide is a filled with chance takers, ********s, ******s, *******. It’s 18 of July and this issue still hasn’t not been resolved.

My bakkie has been standing from the 12 of April until now, Nissan Groblersdal shows no form of accountability, respect and human decency.

I work with my bakkie on my business, since this incident, I’ve lost hundreds of thousands which I can prove. This incident makes Nissan its self, a poor service delivery car company. One of the worst company I’ve dealt with.

Myself and family will never buy or support anything that has to do with Nissan. Deeply disappointed.
