I purchased a Certified Pre-owned Nissan. Mr. Mandez Jones made my buying experience very comfortable, he was very courteous, patient and so professional. I will be recommending this dealership.

I leased a Nissan Rogue from Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport and Suzanne was my sales rep. She did an excellent job answering the many questions I had as I was torn between an Altima and a Rogue. She gave me time to figure out what I wanted to do and after I did decide the process went smooth, fast and was the best car buying (leasing) experience I have had to date.

Great experience and staff! I bought 2 cars here over the last year. On both occasions I was helped by Lamont. He is the man!

Just as many others out there, I dread buying vehicles from dealerships. Nothing is ever as advertised and once there, they try to pressure you into buying every little gadget or "maintenance contract" under the sun. Well, to my surprise, sales associate Suzanne Reynolds was none of that! She was extremely pleasant, knowledgeable, and professional. She walked me through the entire process, explained every detail, and didn't push me into anything. She actually listened to what "I" wanted, and delivered! Thank you Suzanne, I hope this dealership understands and appreciates just how valuable you are. Good luck moving forward and when I'm in the market for another vehicle, I will definitely be looking you up!

Pine Belt Nissan is the easiest and friendliest place to bring your car. I've had the pleasure of dealing with Erik Fetterman (Service Manager) for the past 3 years. He always greats me with a smile, and hardly ever a wait to take my car in for service. He Also gets someone to drive me home if the car has to stay longer than I can wait. Best part is I bring all of my family's cars - and they are all different brands - Lexus, Infinty, and Dodge. Always a fair price, and the work is done right the first time. I would highly recommend this dealership for servicing any vehicle ... And ask for Erik - he's fantastic. Thanks, Jim G

I worked with Nick, Tim, and Marco, they were amazing! They helped me with my new lease and worked everything it for the trade of my old car. I got everything I was looking for in my new car, all in my price range! I would definitely recommend Pine Belt to anyone looking for a new car!

I recently purchased a car from Nissan is Keyport. My sales associate was Suzanne Reynolds, and she made me feel so at ease. I live local to keyport so I've been to this dealership multiple times and I never met someone that made me want to purchase a car from them, until I started speaking to Suzanne. I knew I could rely on her to get me the information/requests that I needed. She went above and beyond to help my family and I. There was a bbq at Nissan that day and she went and made a plate of food for my grandfather while we were waiting. She has such a positive and trusting demeanor. GREAT EXPERIENCE ++++++++

I bought a used nissan altima from here the other day, Jim Brower is the man. He walked around with my Dad and I for a while checking out cars until I saw one that I really liked. We took it for a test drive and I was sold on it. He wasn't pushy or trying to sell me a line of bs, he was straight up with me which is rad. Everyone else was also super nice aswell. If you're looking for a quality used car I'd definitely check this place out

I've bought 3 cars from Pine Belt Nissan and have always been very happy with the experience and the service afterward. But a few weeks ago I received an email stating that they had a "special deal" put together just for me because I was such a good and loyal customer! I could trade up to a newer model, all I had to do was bring in my car, sign a few papers, and drive out in my new car, keeping the same or even lowering my payments! I know that when something sounds too good to be true, it probably is, so I should have known better. I printed out the email as instructed, brought it to the dealership, and no one knew what I was talking about. They passed me off to several different people before I ended up with the guy who actually sent the email. Turns out this "special deal" was just a straight forward trade-in, requiring a large down payment if I wanted my payments to stay the same. Needless to say, I left with the same car, and a slightly bad taste in my mouth for car salesmen. Even with this not so great experience, I must say I am happy overall with the service at Pine Belt, and will continue to do business there.

I bought a brand new nissan xterra in 2000 and felt it was time for an upgrade. I went back to pine belt nissan in October of 2016 because of my previous experience in 2000. They were great back then and are great even now. I dealt with different associates this time than I did last time, and they did not disappoint again. Jim Brower was patient and gave us his full attention during our visit. My wife and I did our research and knew what we were going in for and the price we were willing to pay. They (we dealt with Nick the manager and Jim associate) far exceeded our expectations, gave us great options and were extremely courteous. I would highly recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a vehicle. Thanks guys

We have purchased and dealt with several different types of dealerships - from Chevy to vovlo and Audi. This was by far the best experience we had - efficient, no haggling required and superb customer service. Tim is a great salesman and we will definitely be back in the near future.

This is the second time that we purchased a car at Pine Belt Nissan. Both experiences were excellent. Very professional, nice salesman. Our latest salesman, Jed has been an absolute gentleman. Great place . He even went to the trouble of dropping the spare key off at our house on the way home.

I had never leased a vehicle before and I only had a 2008 Volvo S40 as a trade. Car was not in the best shape either.Suzanne Reynolds was able to get me into the Rouge I wanted with no money down and madeit possible to keep my payments where they were with the Volvo as well as pay off my existing loan. She was professional, patient and made the whole experience pleasant.I have and will continue to recommended her to my family and friends. She truly is a STAR!

My daughter knew I was looking to buy a new car, so she recommended Pink Belt Nissan. She was recently there with her mother in law who purchased a new vehicle. They both told me how great the service was. I must admit I was somewhat sceptical, but I decided to come give it a try. To my amazement they certainly did deliver quality service. My salesperson, Luis Rosario, was top notch. I couldn't have asked for better. All in all I would definitely recommend going to Pine Belt Nissan for a great car buying experience.

Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport is the best place to shop for new and used cars. When arriving at Pine Belt Nissan, I was greed with great customer serves. They are a great car dealership that's willing to work with you: financial budget, quality of car, and with the million of questions being asked. I would also like to thank Mark Rousseau who went way beyond to make sure I made the right decision when purchasing my new 2016 Nissan Sentra SV. He helped me understand the financial part of owning a new car, great deal on both trading in my old car and getting the new car. Mark also took time out to explain all the technical functions in the new car. If you are going to buy a new or used car, please ask for Mark Rousseau; you wont regret it!!!!! I'd also like to thank Marco Soriano for helping me with the actual financial papers too.

I was first referred to Matt Clifton, General Sales Manager, who put in me in touch with salesman, Tim Rourke. Tim called me right away and after hearing what I was looking for and my budget, called me back a short time later with the information I was looking for. Everything was to my liking and agreed to come in on the following Saturday to conclude the deal. From the moment I walked into the showroom, I was greeted warmly before being introduced to Tim. After he greeted me and my daughter, Romy, he showed us our new Sentra. Romy and I were very pleased! Next we were taken to finance, were we met Kevin Morey. Despite what I had heard about going into finance, I was pleased that it was just the opposite. No pressure. After Tim explained the features of the car, Romy and I drove home happily. I would recommend Pine Belt Nissan and Tim Rourke to anyone looking to bur or lease a Nissan!

We returned to Pine Belt Nissan for the second time in a year because our first experience was outstanding! This time it may have actually managed to top the first experience. Taking on a second new car loan within a year really was gonna push the limits of the family budget. Franz Crane, Matt Clifton, and Cheim Sonnenblick worked together to get us into a car suited to our needs and at the right price! Even though the dealership is a bit far from where we live, it's worth the trip. This is the only place we will purchase a car from and we have reffered our friends as well.

Fantastic experience. Chris Ranucci was the most professional and kind sales person I have ever dealt with. I have lease more cars that I can count, but this was the best . Their process was fast and easy no big sales pressure. I can't wait to lease with him again. last but not least Rich Hendrickson the sales manager was exceptional as well. BRAVO to the team.

My experience at Pine Belt Nissan was FANTASTIC! To be honest, I typically dread the car buying experience, but boy was this one different.Fred Hanzman was a terrific salesman - not pushy at all and you can tell he really had my best interest in mind. I will certainly recommend Fred and Pine Belt to my family and friends!Thank you for making the car buying experience fun again!

Chris Tobiens at PBN is the most kind, fair dealer I've ever interacted with. He was honest about pricing, patient when it came to decision making on my end, and went above and beyond to provide me with the best deal on a brand new vehicle. PBN is lucky to have someone so enthusiastic about his position and so down-to-earth with customers. Typically, I hate the car buying experience, as I often feel like I'm being cheated but honestly, I got the best deal I've ever gotten on a vehicle from PBN. I interacted briefly with other dealers/finance members and all made me feel like I was in the right place.

We have purchased and leased many cars over the past 30 years and this has been by far the most pleasant experience ever!!! Our sales person Fred Hanzman was great and so was our finance guy. The whole process, from the time we walked in to the time we drove off the lot with our brand new 2016 Rogue SL, took only 3 hours. I will definitely return in April once my other lease is up. Keep up the good work!!

My experience in this dealership was exceptional. I received such excellent customer service when I purchased my 16' Nissan Maxima. I felt like all my questions were answered accordingly and my bill was explained to me in great detail. I would like to thank JR and Jed for helping me choose the right car to meet my needs and also being patient. I am totally in love with it. And Chiam was also very thorough at explaining my payment details. I will deff recommend!

I had a terrible service experience today. The service people are not friendly at all. No one acknowledged me when I pulled up, not even when I went to the table to give my key in. One of the employees William, made a face when I said I was waiting for it since I didn't have a ride. If I'm not worried about having to wait for the car, they shouldn't be or they should offer a loaner car. Looks like I'll have to find another place to take my car for service since this is not the first time I've had issues with them. I just got the car 4 months ago and don't want to continue to be treated poorly after spending my money there.

I had the most extraordinary purchasing experience with Franz. He is the best sales associate I have ever had. He made you feel like a valued customer and you could tell he had your best interest in mind and was not just trying to make a sale. He really worked with me to get me the best deal and went through all the options I had. He was genuinely an awesome guy and I would recommend him to anyone who goes to Pine Belt.

My husband purchased his Pathfinder last year, he had a great experience, We came back and used the same salesperson, Franz, great guy and purchased a Altima. Very pleased with the all aspects of the sale. Would surely recommend them and I would certainly buy another vehicle from them. Thanks again for a smooth and speedy purchase,

I recently purchased a 2013 Altima from Pine Belt Nissan. Unfortunately about 3 weeks in the car started having an alternator issue, and wouldn't you know it, it wasn't "technically" covered under warranty. After several phone calls with the dealership I had the pleasure of speaking to John, the service manager. I must say it is hard in today's world to find someone who will really listen to your issues and try to do something about it. John Kravchak is one of those good people. He went far above and beyond to resolve the issue for me, including talking to the sales manager and corporate. The entire time he was incredibly professional, courteous and understanding. I can honestly say I feel very comfortable having my car serviced at Pine Belt Nissan. Thank you again John!!!!

Unfortunately I will not be coming back to this location every again. Called to get a quote/make an appt. to get tire/rim/hubcap replaced because of an awful pothole I hit. To my surprise, they said my tire was under warranty for Road Hazard (even checked with the manager to make sure)..so my tire would be replaced for free! (It was only 4 months old). I made the appt. knowing I was paying extra for the rim and hubcap but felt OK because I was getting the tire for free essentially. I got there at 9AM..it wasn't until 11:30AM that they came out and told me that my tire was actually not under warranty because there was no hole in it I said ok..then you're saying I don't need a new tire? ..They said I did because it was "too dangerous to drive on" ???? I said well then it's damaged from the pothole right?..We went back and forth ..I refused to get tricked into paying $150 for a new tire just because they didn't ask me what kind of damage I had before I made the appt!! They refused to put the tire back on the car because I declined paying for a new tire..so I left there with it in the trunk and the donut still onat 12:30 PMapparently it takes 3 1/2 hours to put a rim and hubcap on. I called so many Nissan Dealerships that day asking if I was crazy or if this was normalthey ALL said it should have been made right by management, since they screwed up. I've also asked for a quote on damage above my gas tank twice now..once in December (which is even written on my bill) and again this time around. Still no answer?? I decided to wait a week to decide what I wanted to do..working from home because I thought my car was too "unsafe" to drive. I then made an appt with another garage for a new tire. They knew nothing about this experience..just that I asked for the tire to be replaced. They brought me into the garage to show me that nothing was wrong with my tire!!! They took it off ..did some testsand told me I did not need a new tire! I couldn't believe it! I've gone to another place just to see if this was true..and again..didn't tell them anything..just that I wanted a tire replaced..and again..they told me there was nothing wrong with my tire! I was so upset that a Dealership could honestly take advantage of a customer like this. So disappointed. I've worked in retail management my entire life and understand running a business and the bottom line..but man, this was shady.

My daughters lease was up on her Altima. My husband needed an oil change so while we were there we spoke with Steve Lanman and Rich Hendrickson. Of course we made a deal on a 2016 Maxima. The car is beautiful. As always dealing with Rich and Steve is a comfortable transaction. Professional and courteous at all times. We feel like family!

Russo

Jan 27, 2016

Not every transaction is going to be perfect. We hit a few bumps in the road, but Sue handled everything. As things came up, she assured me she would address them and she did. Most sales people promise the world and don't delivery. Sue is realistic, honest and keeps her word. I will definitely be a return customer because of Sue and have already sent her referrals. Thanks for everything Sue!!!

For the first time ever in a car dealership I was spoken to with respect, in a professional manner, greeted with smiles, and welcomed by all. Mandez Jones knows his stuff- he makes the experience of looking for a car easy, tell him what you want and he's there to make it happen. Mandez has the knowledge needed to inform you about any car you're looking for, he goes above and beyond and won't stop until you're comfortable and understand what you're looking at. Rich Hendrickson and Mandez Jones worked with me to get me the best possible price and provided outstanding customer service while doing so. These two men are honest and genuinely care about their customers. I am a 24 year old young lady, I walked into many dealerships and got the run around; as you would imagine so doing this alone. After going to Nissan of Keyport I'll never go anywhere else. I caught other dealerships in lies and Nissan of Keyport was always honest and open to help me get the best deal possible. I walked out of there with more than what I was looking for and couldn't be happier- I told Mandez and Rich I wanted to fall in love with my car and I did..... Thank you Nissan of Keyport- Thank you Mandez- And thank you Rich. You made this experience one to remember and share with others.

We haven't bought a new car in a good many years and Mandez Jones made it so easy for us to understand all the details in order for us to get the right car that fit our needs. Mr. Jones was friendly, very knowledgeable and patient in answering all of our questions. We highly recommend you ask for him.

A great car buying experience!!! I can't say enough about our Salesman Franz Crane. He was very friendly, helpful, and took the time to answer all our questions and address our needs & concerns. If you are like me one of those people that dread walking into the car dealership, then ask for Franz. He didn't try to "sell" us. He took the time and put in the effort to find the right car for my family, at a price we could afford. I should also mention Marco, the Finance Manager was also great. He also was friendly and helpful. We were looking to purchase a warranty and had tons of questions. Marco answered them all and got us the protection that gives us peace of mind!

Worked with Mandez Jones for the purchase of my new car. He is courteous and professional. He worked hard with me to work out a deal we were both happy with. Went the extra mile to explain all the bells and whistles of the vehicle before I drove away. Thank you.

This was my second purchase at Pine belt Nissan of Keyport , NJ. The staff is friendly and helpful . This was also my second time working with Mr. Mandez Jones . He was efficient and knowledgeable in answering my "hypothetical question" related to possibly trading in my car for a lower priced vehicle . After a quick review of my financials he was able to put together a package which would lower my payments and purchase a new vehicle at a great rate "0%".Mandez was thorough and patient while taking me through each step . He added a personal touch that is often absent when making such a purchase from selecting a color to explaining how all the "gadgets work". Since this was my second time working with Mandez I regard him as" my "sales person . I trust him with helping me make the right choices that fit me and my "pocketbook" . That means a lot . Thankyou.

Our Nissan Leaf lease was up, and Pine Belt had two in stock, so I made the trek over from Brooklyn to check out what they had. Steve Lanman was the guy who took care of me, and helped me out of my lease and into owning a new Leaf (which, by the way, is an amazing car.) What made the dealer (and Steve) feel different from other car purchases I've had, is that they are simply no-bullsh*t. No "let me check with my manager." No "I'll have to get that approved by corporate." The people selling cars there seemed empowered to make a connection with the customers, and close the deal without playing games. This is the way car purchases should be handled with respect for people's time, respect for their intelligence, and respect for their budget. I'd come back here in a second to make my next purchase.

This would be our 3rd Nissan from Pine Belt. As always it was a pleasant experience with Franz our salesman. We turned in a 2013 Sentra SR for a fully loaded 2015 Rogue SL AWD. It was quick and painless with an excellent price. For as long as we own Nissan Franz & Pine Belt will always have our business! Thanks Again!

I was looking for a quality used 2012 Altima but was dreading the buying process based on previous bad experiences I've had at other dealerships. After researching the fair value of what I wanted and locating a model on Pine Belt Nissan's website I contacted Tommy G based on his DealerRater reviews and how long he's been in the business. Tommy was very responsive to my initial emails to establish what I felt was a fair "out the door cost" for the car and my emphasis that I did not want any last minute surprise fees or charges to spoil the deal. We then spoke by phone and he confirmed the vehicle was available and that he could definitely do the deal at my all-in price. His demeanor was professional and free of the expected pressure sales tactics to try to get me on the lot ASAP or require me to put a deposit down. Tommy called me back shortly to explain that the vehicle I saw online was at an offsite storage lot and it would take him a day to get relocated but that he had a nearly identical Altima with lower mileage they had just taken in trade a few days earlier that he could do for a few hundred dollars more. I was initially pessimistic that this was some sort of bait and switch but I agreed to come down later that day to look at it and then make arrangements to see the original vehicle. I was able to identify this other Altima on their website (with a spotless CARFAX report) and it was in fact listed for sale for the additional amount Tommy quoted. Knowing that I have less than stellar credit I completed their online credit application before I left the house so the finance guy would know what he was working with. I then texted Tommy to tell him to look for the application and to coordinate it with finance. I went to the lot a few hours later and was introduced to Tommy, looked over the car and sat down to talk numbers after seeing that the car was exactly as advertised and everything that I wanted. We agreed on the same original "out the door cost" from our phone call and I reiterated that I wasn't going to tolerate any surprise fees/costs after he went down the hall. Tommy stepped away to the finance department and I began to expect him to come back with some sort of alternate offer that "the bank requires to made the deal work" but to my surprise when he returned the deal was unchanged and at very reasonable terms given my credit. He mentioned that finance was shopping the deal for an even better rate, which I quickly dismissed as something they probably say to all bad credit customers. We shook on the deal and started the paperwork. In the process Tommy came back to the desk smiling saying that they were able to get me a significantly better rate, one that I was surprised I would have even qualified for. There was no wait when he handed me off to Mike in the finance department to sign all the documents. There were the expected offers and recommendations to buy GAP protection and extended service contracts but Mike was professional about moving along when I politely declined. I was in and out of the dealership with an excellent deal on exactly the Altima I wanted at extremely reasonable terms within two hours - on a Saturday! I was never stressed or pressured during the process and was very impressed with the professionalism of Tommy and Mike. They really made it a pleasurable experience and renewed my faith that there are still reputable car dealers who know they can create a repeat customer by treating them fairly and honestly from the beginning. I will definitely start my next car search with Tommy G at Pine Belt. I already have him on the lookout my wife's next car.

On February 6th, my daughter and I arrived at the dealership and within a short time, drove away in a new 2014 Sentra. The ease with which this transaction was completed was no different than when I leased a new Altima last August through Nick Cataldo and Debra Smith. I basically texted Nick what I was looking for in a new car. He found and held for me the exact model car I wanted. Nick gave me the numbers I was looking at to close the deal. And because I have leased at least four to five previous Nissan vehicles through him, I knew this was the best I could get. There was no need or ever has been for me to shop elsewhere. So, when I walked into Keyport it was already a done deal. [I have followed Nick from Staten Island to Keyport just because I trust him completely.] Nick had Steve Lanman perform the sales part of the transaction and I found him to be as honest and trustworthy as Nick. He did a great job familiarizing us with the new car and was helpful in every way. Anthony, the finance person was personable, adept, efficient and professional.You can never go wrong with going to this dealership. The personnel are all professional, courteous and respectful. The physical layout and spacious clean space of this place makes a customer feel valued and wanted. Again, kudos to Nick - and to Steve. It was truly another stroll through the park.

About a week before Christmas, I turned my wife's red Nissan Sentra in as the lease expired and needed a new blue Sentra. Franz showed me what they had at the dealership and took care of me. He was extremely informative. When Franz was helping me he treated me as if I was the only one there. Franz and Anthony moved me through the process quickly. I probably could have been out of there an hour earlier if I did not enjoy the conversations I was having with both Franz and Anthony. When my pregnant wife went in to pick up some things for the car, Franz immediately knew who she was (she was not there when I got the car for her) and took care of her, explaining everything she needed to know about the car. In her short time there she left with a great feeling about the place as well.I had such a great experience I can not wait to turn in my Rogue. I highly recommend asking for Franz when you go to Pine Belt Nissan.

After shopping around at several dealerships and dealing with sales associates that just rubbed me the wrong way, I finally found the right dealership for me. I was immediately greeted and shown numerous vehicles until I found the one for me. I was educated on all of the facts of the vehicle and felt very confident with my purchase. Mandez was very helpful and knowledgable. I've visited 4 other dealerships over the past month and no dealership even came close to beating the customer service and friendliness of this dealership. I've never had a salesman be so through and Paticent as I am not the easiest customer to deal with due to my budget and indecisiveness. I am more than pleased with my purchase and I'm looking forward to up grading in a 2-3 years. Thanks for producing great customer service. See you soon.

Update :over last couple of days Matt Clifton, GSM Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport, reached out to me and offered to settle the matter. I like his approach and open and truthfulness on the handling of the issue and he has given me couple of practical solutions to the issue. I have opted for the offered solution. Unfortunately there is no 0 star possible or -10 star possible I leased a new 2015 Pathfinder SL Tech from this dealer on January 10th, 2015. While negotiating the price of the vehicle, we had come to an agreement that the dealer will install a Dual DVD Head restraint entertainment system and roof rails inclusive in the deal, however, the accessories weren't in stock and would had to be installed a week later. After the accessories were installed, I found out that Dual DVD Head restraint is an aftermarket product rather than a Nissan product while the roof rail was Nissan product. The installed DVD monitors do not function the same way as was perceived by me in Nissan's website and advertisements, and the installed DVD monitors do not match the rest of interior of the car and hence spoils both functionality and look. Upon taking up the matter with the dealership, I was told that the deal was originally done with an aftermarket product, however, they accepted that it was their fault of not informing me of the same. Note that roof rails installed were Nissan though, however, strange. They refuse to install Nissan DVD monitors, and asked me to pay extra $1000 to get that instead. They are offering to match the color of the head restraint with the rest of the seat and claiming that the installed product should behave just like Nissan product, which is not the case. I had also involved Nissan consumer affairs who could not resolve the case and to them dealership told that if I paid $800 extra they would install Nissan DVD monitors, something is really fishy here. Besides they are tricking me to pay extra for something which I was already tricked into believing that I had already paid for. This has caused me endless agony and sleepless night. I feel deceived and now I feel stuck with a car which doesn't fit all my requirements for next 35 months. And, since they have accepted that they didn't inform me (withheld information) about the product being aftermarket at the first place, it's their responsibility to mend it.It's an implicit understanding of all the customers that the accessory they find in manufacturer's website and ask the dealer to install during a new car purchase will always be OEM. Stay away from this dealership. And if you are unfortunate enough to land yourself there, make sure you get every nickle and dime and nut and bolt mentioned in paper works. These are very clever people you are dealing with, so be extra cautious. The DVD monitors they got me installed, cannot be played with the in-dash DVD player, and I am not sure how on earth they expect my small kids to load, change tracks to enjoy the movies their daddy got them. While the Nissan product that I had seen and believed purchasing, can be played individually or via in-dash DVD, both. The sales person was Steve Lanman and his sales manager Nick Cataldo (who in fact is the most rude person I met in my entire life)These people donot understand what it means to be a customer and how customer satisfaction and after sales experience is important for any business. We have, in fact, already advised couple of friends who were in talks with this dealership, against it, and they have turned to Edison Nissan. And I am sure, me and my social circle will continue doing that in future.

I worked with Franz Crane to lease a 2015 Pathfinder. Needing a bigger vehicle with a third row, my wife first stopped into the dealership to browse the vehicles with a third row. Franz had showed her what they had to offer but was not pushy by any means. We decided we wanted to pursue leasing a Pathfinder. After speaking with Franz on the phone he said could work with me on the price I was interested in. My wife wanted to test drive the truck before any negotiating. Franz had pulled a truck in the exact color and model we were interested in and had it ready for wife to drive when she got to the dealership. My wife loved the truck and I returned to speak with Franz about the particulars. I usually dread this process but Franz made it hassle-free and really worked with me to fit this lease into my budget. He was very thorough and helpful throughout the entire process and was never pushy. I also dealt with Rich Hendrickson who was very accommodating in finalizing the deal. Anthony Szaraz wraped up the process in Finance and was very clear on all of the ppaperwork. Overall, the entire process was a pleasant experience and I would recommend this dealership to others.-Mike N.

My experience with Pinebelt was graceful. I had already had a terrible day and had totaled my vehicle that morning. I was searching for used car dealerships online and found this one. I showed interest in a few cars and Michelle called me within minutes to ask if I wanted to come by. I decided to do it. Franz took me on a test drive. The man was immediately friendly and very personable. He had the car running and ready for me to try. I loved it and we zoomed through the process. He asked me if I wanted a cup of coffee, which after the day I had, felt like the greatest gift in the world. Within an hour I was singing the final paperwork with Anthony in financing. Anthony was also a pleasure to work with. Everybody was so friendly and helpful. Michelle, although not in sales, came out to meet me and wish me well. I realize car salesmen are supposed to be this way so that they make sales but these were truly genuine people who related to the day I was having and really gave it a happy ending. I picked the vehicle up the next day and to my surprise Anthony had gotten a lower interest rate for me. That really made me happy.Overall a great experience and I would recommend this dealership to anybody. I will also go there again for a future purchase

This is the second vehicle I have purchased at pine belt Nissan, both from sales associate Franz Crane. If you want to avoid all the hassles and stress of purchasing a vehicle go see Franz, he makes purchasing a vehicle, whether new or used a totally pleasant experience. And by the way I live in lafayette sussex county Nj. Which is more than an hour away from pine belt Nissan in Keyport, that's how much I trust Franz. I would also like to mention John the manager in service He does a great job in helping you the customer. I also would like to mention Mark Soriano manager in finance for making our purchase affordable. if your in the market for a new or used vehicle, go see Franz, you won't be disappointed.

After visiting multiple dealerships I ventured into PINE BELT NISSAN in KEYPORT and Sammy helped me out without being pushy and was the exact opposite, very informative and helpful, I was very impressed and will be a repeat customer as well as informing my friends and family about this dealerships great customer service and great deals. After visiting multiple dealerships I didn't know what to expect, usually salesman can be pushy and not interested in you if you don't "bite" the bait. NOT in this case with Sammy it was the opposite. He was very informative and helpful and I really appreciated that. He's still in touch with me, which usually you don't find with a salesman. I would ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND this dealership as well as dealing with RICH the sales manager!

The first time I came to Franz, I was looking for a lease on an ALtima. Was in and out in less than 2 hours, got a better deal than I expected. I went back just about a week ago to purchase a 2014 Rogue. Franz broke down the numbers and cut straight to a great deal without the hassle of back and forth negotiations. Would definitely go back to him for another Nissan.

This is my 3rd Nissan and the first time I went to a dealership. I had a sour taste after dealing with Staten Island Nissan who are just terrible. They couldn't make a deal in 3 months and Pine Belt had made a deal within ours. The staff at Pine Belt Nissan was just amazing, I was given the deal that I was promised. No games!! I worked with a salesman Sammy who was so courteous and professional. Nick, Richard and Marc were great to work with as well. I honestly thought my overall experience was a great one. The guys here showed me that there really are great car people and not thieves like SI Nissan. I will recommend this dealership to everyone. If you have any doubts, rest assured that you will be well taken care of. You are in great hands! They really care about you here and listen to what you want to get a great car within your means!

Visited a different Nissan dealership and walked out! Rude, disrespectful and big time game players. After checking out the on-line inventory at the NISSAN USA site, found the color combo I was interested in on a 2015 Altima 3.5 SL at KEYPORT (they have a very good selection of colors and the accessories I wanted). Had not been to this location previously but have to say the difference was night and day and well worth driving the extra distance. Didn't take long to negotiate, feel comfortable with and agree upon a great deal. The entire staff were friendly and accommodating. The showroom, service area and lounge comfortable and spotless. Had the pleasure to work with and special thanks to my Sales Consultant TOMMY GIAIMO ... aka: Tommy G, Sales Manager RICH HENDRICKSON and MIKE KELLEHR in the finance dept. I can honestly recommend to friends and family the highest accolades for their services!

The salesman Franz was needless to say a gentleman to deal with...he walked us through the whole sale and everything that he promised was delivered... after settling on a price(yes we haggled-it is a car sale) i didn't have to go back into finance and re-negotiate the monthly payments or down-payment...there was no strong arm sales from management...there was no up-sale gimmicks on accessories and no after-market insurance policy's recommendations by the salesteam...the whole process went rather smoothly...the bottom line is if you know what vehicle you want and what you want in it then i can highly recommend Franz as a person of integrity...he's 'the car guy' you wont regret dealing with....so best of luck and good shopping

Recently in the market for a 2015 Altima. Wasn't exactly sure on color or trim level. As soon as I arrived, the entire staff was very friendly and accommodating. The dealership itself is immaculate and in an excellent location, right off the GS Parkway. The showroom is AMAZING and ultra clean. The owners clearly take pride in their establishment. I worked with Mandez Jones in sales, who is a true professional - very friendly, patient, courteous, knowledgeable, and straight shooter, no games. I had his full attention at all times. He let me browse their lot looking at all their Altima's for almost an hour. I finally found the perfect one, a black Altima SL with beige leather! Pleasant test drive, was showed all the car's features. Car drives like a dream. Negotiation was painless and simple. Took maybe 20 minutes with my salesperson and the sales manager Rich Hendrickson, and everything was very fair and open. Rich is very nice and doesn't push the high pressure sales tactics at all. This place is BUSY. The car's are amazing and obviously sell themselves. Just take a look at the competition and come here, night and day. From the time I arrived, to the time we had a deal was just under 2 hours, very efficient! They realize most people don't want to make a day of a car deal. Detail took about an hour, and they did a fantastic job. I also worked with Mike from finance, real nice guy. Was explained the extended service contract, but he wasn't pushy at all. Paid cash and signed all the final paperwork with him. Took literally 5 minutes. I haven't purchased a new car since 2006, so I was skeptical at what I might be in for. Believe me, 5 stars all the way around. Beyond impressed! Anyone in NJ, NY or PA should definitely make the trip here. They had over 300 Altima's in stock! But more than that, they actually make the process FUN and totally stress free so you feel like its a reward to yourself and not a chore. From start to finish, it couldn't have been any better. I was highly impressed, and I am admittedly a very tough customer. A++++ I will be back for a 370Z convertible next summer Mandez!!

The finished product looks and works great. I know John went over and above what most service men would have done Thank you Dave Dornfeld DO

Mark. Was. Amazing! Okay, I purchased from Pinebelt three years ago after going to other dealers that were less than helpful or friendly. This time around my best friend was purchasing. We scouted out some options from a dealer much closer to home. Of course, it was a terrible experience with cocky, rude employees. But that's fine, cause we knew we would be making the purchase from Pinebelt anyway even though it's much further from home. We dealt with Mark Rousseau and I must say, he was extraordinary!!! Conversation came EASILY and he IMMEDIATELY made us feel special! I was shocked once I found out he was only there a month! Not only was he easy to deal with, but he was fun and extremely genuine and REALISTIC, which isn't a quality you find in most car salemen. Mark is going to be a powerhouse for Pinebelt, although they already are an amazing location! It speaks volumes when the quality of the employee is more important than shoving a number down your throat and refusing to budge. Rich was the manager we dealt with and he was patient and extremely helpful as well. Two times I've been through a purchase here and both times I had great experiences with their people. They truly create a connection!!! After all the miserable experiences I've had elsewhere, I am so happy I've found a place as amazing as Pinebelt Nissan of Keport and I would NEVER purchase elsewhere!!! I will make sure for years to come that any friends or family go to Pinebelt as well!!!!! Kudos for great integrity- it's not easy to find in this business.

My wife and I have been following Nick Cataldo wherever he has worked for what seems like multiple generations of Nissan cars and vans. When he started working at Pine Belt, we traveled from Staten Island the next time we needed a new car back in 2011. Although he was not available to assist us this time around [due to our schedule and through no fault of his] - he made sure that Rich Hendrickson would be on hand when we came in. Upon our arrival, we had the good fortune to have Debra Smith greet us and together, they begin the business of either buying our leased car or getting a new one. Rich and Debra quickly offered us the most aggressive lease deal on a new 2014 Altima with no haggling or over selling. Their approach was straight forward, like Nick would have been and has always been with us as customers, and we were sold on the idea of leasing a new car rather than buying out the expiring leased car.The entire experience was thoroughly professional, efficient and pleasurable - which is why I captioned this review like a walk in the park. Debra was simply a pleasure to do business with. It felt like we were visiting a well liked second cousin who was offering us a great business deal. Rich was efficient and courteous. Anthony made the signing of the lease papers easy and simple. All three made us feel like truly valued customers. What car customers like myself want from dealership personnel is honesty, integrity and sincerity. Obviously those are the characteristics we found in these three staff members. And of course, Nick came around to see how things were with us and it felt like a favorite uncle had come into town to visit and catch up on things. Debra was particularly charming and her demeanor throughout was exceptional. She was knowledgeable and she treated us terrifically. That we had a great time talking with her about things other than cars was like icing on the cake.Who says you can't have fun at a car dealership,especially with wonderful sales people.My suggestion: If you are thinking Nissan, head to Pine Belt and ask for Debra, Rich and Nick. Forget about going elsewhere in New Jersey or the local Metropolitan area of New York City.The level of professionalism and honesty here is worth the trip from anywhere.Arnold L. and Merren K.

After having a bad experience with another dealership, we came here based off of positive internet reviews. Luckily we got set up with Kevin. He was so friendly, listened to what we wanted, answered all of our questions and worked hard to get us a good deal. The check out process ran into some snags out of our control but he was very patient and even stayed after hours to get us our car that very night. Buying a car is a stressful process in my opinion but the customer service at Pinebelt made it much more pleasant than I thought it ever could be. Thank you Pinebelt!I would highly recommend this dealership to any friends and family in the future.

John the service manager has been handling all the repairs needed for my 2007 Saab truck. He's been especially helpful with helping me find parts, which are somewhat hard to find for Saabs. He's vey professional and truly an asset to their company. It's been a pleasure working with him and I plan to always bring my truck in there for anything it should need. Thank you again!

My husband had been looking for a pre owned truck for months and the Frontier at Pine Belt Nissian was perfect for him. He wasn't looking forward to the car buying process so it took him a while to go to Pine Belt to talk to someone. That someone was fortunately, Eduardo Callirgos who is an exceptional salesperson. He made us feel comfortable, non pressured and was very honest about how things were going to go. Once we met Eduardo things progressed very smoothly and it turned into an top rate buying experience. I'm sure we would not hesitate at all to go back to Pine Belt and Eduardo to buy another car. We are actually going to start watching the website for a used car for our daughter! Tom and Lynda Stark

Purchased a used Nissan from pine belt about a month ago. By far the worst experience of any of 4 Nissans I have purchased in my life. I will say, Franz Crane was graceful and courteous throughout the whole experience and would recommend him as a salesman if you happen to be unfortunate enough to step in this dealer. Things started off well when I got to the dealer for the test drive and the initial negotiation phase. The car was fairly priced and I ended up paying the asking price which I was ok with. However, the financing part of the deal was a complete disaster and the worst customer service experience I have faced. One of the sales managers openly lied to my face about the interest rate that was offered to me by Nissan. This is a common practice for dealers to mark up the interest rate for extra profit, but normally the customer is unaware. When I called the dealer out on marking up my interest rate they became very annoyed and unfriendly. Ultimately it ended up with the manager throwing a final offer in my face and telling me "we aren't going to do it for anything less". The general manager Matt Clifton then got involved after I convinced them to work with me to make a deal. Again, I uncovered more lies and unethical tactics. I was being charged for things without my knowledge of them. Ultimately, it led to Matt asking me to leave the dealer because I refused Gap insurance and he "didn't want to do the deal anymore". I left the dealer and ended up calling back the next day to speak with the customer relations person. This person was much friendlier and we were able to work out a FAIR deal. It could have been this easy from the beginning. The level of customer service was atrocious and really left a bitter taste in my mouth. I have never seen a customer kicked out of a dealer due to tough negotiation skills. The fact that pine belt is able to treat any customer with this level of disrespect really speaks volumes. Further, my registration was botched after careful directions to transfer my plate. I made it clear that I wanted my current plate transferred to the new car and was assured this would happen. A few weeks later I get a call from the dealer telling me my new plates were ready to be picked up. Overall terrible experience and I would caution anyone considering buying a vehicle from pine belt Nissan to really think twice.

I have to say that the team at Pine Belt Nissan in Keyport is by far the most professional and dedicated group of people that I have ever had the pleasure of doing business with when buying a car. Tom Hebrew and Bob Sorg EXCEEDED my expectations and provided EXCELLENT customer service. My wife and I purchased a 2011 Nissan Murano and a 2006 Nissan 350Z and I am so happy with my new cars. I absolutely love them and are a great fit for us. My daughter Peyton loves the Murano and I can't wait for the summer to cruise with the top down on the 350Z. Thank you so much and I will be referring a lot of my credit repair clients over to you as well!!!Jose & Kellee RodriguezOwners of Clean Slate Credit SolutionsNeptune, NJ

To Whom it may concern, My husband had been car shopping for several weeks in and around our area. It was Franz Carne who got our business once again. We first met Franz three years ago, and leased two vehicles. He is just an all around nice guy, very caring and down to earth. He is quite knowledgeable about the cars he sells and was concerned about our best interests. Franz was the only salesman to follow up with a phone call. He asked if there was anything he could do to have my husband come back. While I was not ready to turn my leased Rouge in just yet, my husband went back. About and hour or so later my husband called me to see if I would come and look at the Altima he was interested in. Low and behold Franz worked his magic again and we left with two cars just like the first time three years ago. If it were not for his diligence and professionalism I know we would have gone elsewhere. Sincerely, Cynthia Jans

If you are looking for a dealership that finally makes you feel good about buying or leasing a car you need to go to Pinebelt Nissan of Keyport NJ. Kevin Geiger is one of the nicest most honest salesmen i have ever met and he made my leasing experience very pleasant. Anthony Szaraz was quick with the paperwork so that was great too. I gave the dealership this rating because it was such a great experience and that is rare when it comes to car dealers.

Had three cars in mind for financing or leasing. Came here last because we'd had a Murano a couple of cars ago and liked it, so were testing the first two cars against it. Continue to love the Murano, but this dealership made the experience a slam dunk. We'd scheduled a test drive (to be sure our experience was the same or better), and everything was in order when we arrived, they knew we were coming, and after taking some initial information (10 minutes, max) they had the car model with the features we wanted ready to go. Franz was very easy to work with, and respected the major constraint we had to work under that day (time), so when we decided to do more than test drive, but negotiate and try and get it done, he moved the process along well.They were fair about the trade-in value of our dealership, they worked a few processes simultaneously (like insurance and credit checking), and when it was done, all we had to do with Anthony the finance manager was sign the paperwork. In fact, the paperwork was done before the car was ready. Start to finish, we were done in three hours.We'd come in prepared, having gotten a realistic (not only on-line) value for our trade-in, and for the features we wanted. I think they realized that, and they adjusted how long it takes appropriately and with concern for our time constraints. That's always bothered me about other dealerships, they don't listen, but Franz and Anthony certainly did. I've driven a few Nissans, both rentals and personal, and think they make a great product, but sometime dealerships can screw it up. Pine Belt most certainly did not.

From the moment we arrived and got out of our old car in the Pine Belt Keyport parking lot, we were greeted by our extraordinarily friendly salesman, Matt Fiehl. He was very honest with us and took his time to explain every detail of our deal and the car we purchased. He never looked stressed, and he went to bat for us several times with management. We felt extremely comfortable working with him, and I would recommend anyone to buy a car from Matt. One instance that stuck out in our minds was when Matt matter-of-factly asked us if we were married. Then, he congratulated us several times. Although this seems so simple and benign to most people, it was a BIG DEAL to us. I have to say that no one (ever) asked us deliberately if we were a married couple. We usually get the questions "Are you two brothers?" or "How are you related?" That made us feel so at ease and accepted, and I'm sure he didn't know how amazing that made us feel. I'm so happy with this dealership, especially our salesman. I couldn't have asked for anything more that we got. They went over and beyond with us. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Sal in Sales was friendly, considerate, and confident working to satisfy fulfilling my requests related to my purchase of the 2006, 350Z.I know that you are N0T supposed to fall in love with a car, but when I saw this Z, and drove it, I knew it was for me!!!There were a few "here & theres" that needed attention, but the Service guys followed through and got them done.All in all, Pine Belt of Keyport did an exceptional job for me. I will definitely give them another shot when I am lQQKing for my next car.Thanx Pine Belt.Bob F.

The sales person that worked with us Matt Fehl was very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable about the product. Since the first time we talked to him, he worked with us to make sure that all our questions were answered and our requirements were met.

I was in search of a used Volvo XC90 for awhile. I went from website to website to find one, not only in good shape and trouble free, but at a price we can afford. I went onto Pine Belts website and there it was! I emailed the dealer and was immediately responded by Michelle Battle. She was able to provide me with answers to ALL my questions and concerns..with a no-pressure attitude.And believe me..the emails were a plenty back and forth. I went out there this past Saturday with my wife and was greeted by one of the NICEST salesmen I have ever met - Sal Albanese. He handed me over the keys and told us to take her for a ride. The truck rode like a purring kitten. I knew this was the one I wanted from the second I started her up.Going through some tough issues no thanks to former tenants living in my house..money is tight. But thanks to Sal and all the managers in that building..they were able to help me leave the lot that day, with that truck, without emptying my last dime I had. They also took in my old car which was a death trap. I cannot say a bad thing about this dealership. In fact, I will do nothing but praise them and pass the word around to anyone who is looking to purchase a car, and this is the FIRST place I will go to again when the time arises that we need to get another.

This was my fourth vehicle that I obtained at Pine Belt Nissan in addition to one we purchased for my son. I have to say each time I came in I have been treated fairly and honestly. The people I have dealt with have always been friendly and professional and the showroom is always a welcoming experience. I left with the same confidence in Nissan Quality that I have experienced over the last several years. I like to thank Debra Smith and Richie Wallace for helping me stay within my budget, a great job as always.Tom Tozzi,

I have been putting off buying a new car for years . . . literally, years. I have a stack of newspapers and online articles about "how to buy a car" and researching the new cars on the market but the process is scary for a single mother. Twelve years ago, I bought a Saturn because I didn't have to talk down the sticker price of the car. What you saw was what you got. Bob Vasquez listened to: what I needed, what I was looking for and what I could afford. He took a most overwhelming/intimidating process and turned it into a stress-free situation. He was the best and I would recommend him to anyone (I already have!). THANKS BOB!!

I have been a Nissan owner for over 30 years, This was my first time at the Pine Belt dealership and I'm sure it won't be my last. They have an outstanding group of sales and finance representatives. My team was awesome!!! The price was right and the folks, top notch! Walter Jacobsen went above and beyond to satisfy our needs. We arrived at 12PM and were home at 4PM, with our brand new 2014 SL AWD Rogue. I would highly recommend this dealership as it reflects true courtesy, respect and professionalism. Thank you All at Pine BeltSee you for our next vehicleChris and Joe

Best experience I have had in purchasing my new nissan rogue.Both myself and husband having been driving Nissans for over twenty years and never enjoyed when we had to buy or return our cars to the dealership.After researching dealerships we decided to try one in jersey since everyone we spoke to who bought cars in Jersey felt they were treated with respect and professionalism which is exactly what we received at Pinebelt In Keyport New Jersey.Both the salesman Rob And finance manager Marco were a delight to work with.They were extremely knowledgeable in their product and car.Things were explained which I was never told about with my cars before.I highly recommend this dealership and hope to deal again with them when my husbands car is up for return.

Each employee we interacted with was friendly and ensured we were being attended to. We were immediately greeted at the door.

I would recommend others make their purchase at Pine Belt.

Sal Albanese was an excellent salesperson to deal with. He was not pushy and made the buying experience one of the best I have ever had. Michelle Battle was extremely honest and actually was the main reason why I choose to purchase a new vehicle from Pine Belt. Marco made signing the lease a painless experience. I would highly recommend Pine Belt.

We leased our last Nissan Rogue in 2010 at Route 66 Automall. When our lease expired after three years, we went back to negotiate a new car. We were treated nicely, but were not satisfied with the numbers. One time in and out. We then went to Freehold Nissan, which is closest to our home. My husband did not like the way the sales manager dealt with him. Again, nice, but insincere. Mind you, my husband is an easy going guy, but something about that experience made him unwilling to return to Freehold Nissan.Then a friend told my husband about a web site to do a car search by putting in the parameters of the package you want. Pine Belt Nissan called us back immediately. I will admit that the price quoted by the on line rep was not accurate, however when we met with Debra Smith, at the showroom, she was able to negotiate a package that we were happy with. She worked for our sale! She is profesional and a trooper. We recommend her and Pine Belt Nissan highly. Also, Mike in finance made signing lots of paperwork almost fun. Thanks guys!!

Our experience with Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport was very positive. Our salesman, Matt was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. He was helpful in detailing the differences between the various Pathfinder models and he provided us with a thorough walk through of the car's options. Based on our experience with Matt and various members of the team at Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport, we would return there to purchase another Nissan and we would recommend this dealer to friends and family.

Between Nick and Al, the whole process of purchasing a car was great! I felt they cared enough to spend the time going over everything so me and my wife understood the steps needed to complete a purchase. This is one part of many reasons why I keep coming back to nissan of keyport! I'am usually a rough critic when it comes to quality of service but I always get the professionalism I deserve at this dealership!

I had never shopped at Pine Belt Nissan in Keyport before as it is not near my residence. However, in this instance I was looking for a pre-owned Rogue with a specific equipment package that I found via the internet at this dealership. We were trading in my wife's 2007 Murano and downsizing to a 2011 Nissan Rogue. Rob Carlson, our salesman, greeted us at the door and our satisfying experience continued from there. Rob was very helpful, taking us on a lengthy test drive and explaining all of the features of the vehicle. We then proceeded to his desk where we discussed our expectations for the car and discussed what our price range was. We went back and forth until we both came upon a mutually agreed upon price for both the new car and our trade. Rob was patient, sincere, never got flustered when we pushed back on the price and told us that he would continue to help us through the entire process until complete. He always gave us his undivided attention and was never running to help another customer. Amazingly, when we were moving the contents of our Murano to our new Rogue, Rob came out and offered to help us transfer the contents. In all my years buying cars, I had never had a sales person ever offer to do this! This is why I have given all 5 ratings to this dealership. From the treatment I had received from Rob during the "selling" process to the "financing" portion with Mike, I felt that this dealership went above and beyond with me and was willing to work with me rather than dictate to me what 'they" wanted. i will probably return to this dealership to service assuming that I will receive the same treatment when servicing my vehicle. Wish all dealerships could take a lesson from Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport in customer service! Wish all sales people were like Rob!

I came back for my early lease termination. Vito was my sales person the first time I came here so I wanted to return back to him. He went above and beyond as well as Mr. Willis to help me out. He was running back and forth to find me the color and options I was looking for and wasn't settling until he found "the car". It was a very busy day so I was one of the last to leave. Vito stayed after the dealership closed to show me how the options worked in my car and helped me get set up.Another one of the managers (I'm unsure of there name) was also extremely courteous and helped me also. I wouldn't hesitate to come back and anyone that asked me, I would send there and to him. I couldn't have asked for better service! Thank you very very much Pine Belt Nissan!!

This is the 3rd Altima I leased at Pine Belt. I have always dealt with Walter Jacobsen. He is a friendly, low-pressure salesperson who is very knowledgeable about the Nissan vehicles as well as the competition. The price negotiations were hassle-free and his prices are the lowest in the area.

The Keyport location has been wonderful from the sales people to the maintenance service personnel.

I went to Pinebelt Nissan based on a recommendation from a good friend of the family. I did not even have an appointment with Fred Hanzman but he greeted me and got to work immediately! This was my 5th trip into a dealership looking to lease a new vehicle. I have spent full days at a dealership from start to finish but not today. .After Fred and I agreed on a price, he handed my paperwork over to Anthony Szaraz who made it work! They did their part in only 3 hours, however, the Rogue that I chose had just come in so they had it in the back a while longer.I would definitely recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a smooth transaction! I also love the fact that they are local and I can have my vehicle serviced there!!!

First day out looking for a new (used) car so I wasn't expecting much. Sal showed me the car I came down to see right away and we immediately it for a spin. Two minutes with Sal and you can tell he is a sage in the business and really enjoys selling cars. Once we got back he gave me all the time I needed to inspect the car. There was no hurry or pressure whatsoever. We then went inside to talk business and it was such a pleasure to deal with him and Nick. Sure there was a bit of negotiating, but within an hour we hashed out a great deal. Not only did I leave shortly thereafter with my new car, but Anthony was able to get me a better interest rate than my credit union could! They have great cars on their lot, a hassle free environment, and amicable staff. If you find your way down there, I certainly recommend hooking up with Sal. Great guy to deal with who absolutely made this experience a great one.

Debra Smith and Rich Hendrickson are terrific sales people. They recognize customer loyalty and really take care of their customers. I recently went into the dealership for an oil change and ended up leaving with a fabulous deal on a 2014 Maxima. I feel very comfortable in dealing with them and know that they enjoy making their customers happy.

After two days in my new car..I wasn't satisified with the car I had chosen. I called and then went back to Pine Belt Nissan, expressing my concerns and basic distress- asking if I could get into a different vehicle. The staff at Pine Belt Nissan never once just told me there was nothing they could do. Debra Smith literally spent hours with me going over all my options in detail. She was patient and took my concerns (and indecisiveness), seriously. Debra Smith was considerate of my needs in a vehicle, as well as my personal and financial level of comfort. The entire staff at Pine Belt Nissan in Keyport was kind, welcoming, and very accommodating. I am so very appreciative.

Joe Aker was my salesman and was a very nice and accommodating salesman. I have absolutely no complaints about him. However, management was not honest with me and my pricing at all. My monthly agreement on a lease jumped up $30.00 per month due to taxes that I was not told of. There is nothing worse than that feeling of being lied to and taken advantage of. They ran my credit and then told me of my actual payment with taxes. (As if it was obvious).I am aware of the end of the month push and seeing today is the last day of September, I realize that they were trying to swindle me to get a sale. I have a client who is in management at a local Honda dealership and when I spoke to him about this, I was told this is completely unethical behavior. Looks like I will be buying a Honda.

I can't say enough about the sales and financing staff. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. They listened to what I said. They found the vehicle I was looking for. No pressure to buy. Staff did not try to pressure the sale or try to sell me something they wanted. All this said concerning the sales and finance staff I am highly disappointed in the staff responsible for the cleaning and prep of the new vehicle. There was dirt and smudges on the windows and mirrors. Also a 4 finger greasy hand print on the back seat. It is a shame that the prep staff partly ruined the best car buying experience I have ever had. I am ready to retire so I have had any buying experiences in my life.

I was impressed with the professionalism and knowledge of Sal Albanese. He explained to my wife and I all the right reasons why we should buy the 2013 Frontier Crew SL 4X4. He offered us such a good deal that we closed the deal after one visit. We had gone to other dealerships to see different models and no one came close to matching what Sal had to offer. I would certainly recommend to my family and friends to go see Sal Albanese at Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport.

The service at Pine Belt Nissan in Keyport was exceptional. I have been to a few different dealerships and this one was clearly the best. One of the main reasons that I consider the service exceptional was Rob Carlson. He assisted in getting me out of my old lease and into a new lease. Even though I was 99% sure I was going to get another Nissan Rogue I asked if it would be a problem if he ran numbers for the Nissan Murano. Also knowing I was not going to lease the Murano, he ran the numbers anyway, no questions asked. Rob led me through the process step by step, explaining everything I had to sign, and had me in and out of the dealership quickly. Unlike other people in sales at other dealerships, Rob made you feel as though you were the only customer at the dealership. The finance manager, Anthony Szaraz was exceptional as well. Again he explained what I was signing page by page and was not doing twenty other things during this process he just led me through until the job was complete. The level of professionalism displayed by both of these guys was top notch. Also, the employees at the dealership all seemed to get along well. Other dealerships I have gone to they are always badmouthing each other their backs. The environment at Pine Belt is very friendly. I am happy to have found this dealership and highly recommend asking for Rob Carlson when you go.

Matt let me test drive a number of different models so I could see which one I liked the most. Once I decided on what I wanted he was able to get the price down to what I was willing pay. He showed me how to work everything in the car and wasn't pushy when I was deciding what I wanted.

BOB WAS VERY HELPFUL. HE LISTENED TO EVERYTHING I SUGGESTED AND WE WENT FROM THERE. HE WAS INCREDIBLY SHOCKED AT HOW FLEXIBLE I WAS REGARDING WHICH CAR I WOULD PURCHASE. I EXPLAINED TO HIM THAT I WANTED TO STAY WITHIN THE SAME BALLPARK AS MY LAST PAYMENT AND HE GOT IT DOWN AS CLOSE AS HE COULD. BOB WAS VERY HUMBLE AND HELPFUL DURING OUR TEST DRIVE AND WAS NOT FOCUSED ON JUST SELLING ME ANY CAR BUT HELPING ME FIND WHAT I LIKED. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS DEALERSHIP TO ALL OF MY FRIENDS. AS SOMEONE JUST STARTING OUT AND THIS BEING MY FIRST VEHICLE PURCHASE ALONE I CAN SAY THAT I AM VERY SATISFIED.

My experience at Pine Belt Nissan was like no other dealership. No pushy salespeople, just product specialists that guide you through the sales process making the appropriate suggestions and recommendations. And no one I've dealt with is better at this than Tommy G. This is the second car I've purchased (plus 1 lease) with Tommy and every experience has been top notch!

We were given the best possible assistance in reaching our goal. We walked away with a great purchase, and look forward to working with Pine Belt again in the future. They didn't give us any haggle, we had an approval within 30 minutes, and were on our way.

This dealership treated me like a star when I bought my car. I was floored by how amazing joe and the rest of the people there were. That was two years ago. Today I write because the keys to my car were stolen. I needed new ones. I needed a tow to the dealership late last night. When my fiance as Brad Benson to do this for him, they threatened to call the cops, so I was nervous when calling. I spoke to a young lady that allowed me to leave my car overnight to be serviced in the morning. I was called at 810 am from Eric in the service department assuring me my car would be taken care of. I have NEVER in my life thought I would be treated so greatly by a car dealership. Since day one I've had great experiences. They are the most phenomenal staff I have ever dealt with, and I work retail and I have MY OWN staff. They are so very caring and considerate. I will never buy a car elsewhere, my fiance will be making his next car purchase here, and so will people close to me. When I explain the treatment I get from here with friends and family they are shocked. As I mentioned before, my fiance and I have gotten into BATTLES with Brad Benson. Who's sales staff is self absorbed, nasty, and cares only about the sale and not about the follow up. Pine belt nissan is the place to go. I promise you that you will not be disappointed.

We were trying to decide whether to lease or buy the vehicle and he was very truthful about which option would suit our financial needs. Extremely pleased with the entire experience and will be back when the lease expires to see Sal. I have a family member who is interested in leasing a car and I plan on bringing her to see Sal in the fall.

The salesman was exceptionally helpful and worked with us to negotiate a price that was both fair and low enough to convince us to drive home with a new car. We came in with a great offer from another dealer that they were willing to beat. They did not push us aggressively but listened to what we wanted and worked with us to come up with a reasonable offer. We are absolutely delighted with our 2013 Altima and very happy with the service provided by Kevin and Pine Belt Nissan. I would use this deal again.

Everyone there was fantastic, i was in and out in 2 hours. I have been telling all my friends about how easy and quick it was for me to get my new car.

I have been in the dealership a couple times now, and they do not forget a face. For a comfortable and pleasant experience call Walter and walk out Satisfied.

The no hassle approach and friendly staff made this the most enjoyable experience. I dealt with about 4 other Nissan Dealerships and they were no where close to Pine Belt Nissan, in price or service, and I didn't have the sleazy salesman experience like I did at Rt 22 Nissan in HIllside.

This was my second time going to Pine Belt Nissan in Keyport and I found the experience very pleasant again . Both Mike and Walter were very knowledgeable about the car and worked within my price range to allow me to lease this vehicle at the price I was comfortable with. I was in/out within 1 1/2 hours.... which never happened to me before. In the past, I was usually at other dealerships for 3-5 hours before I drove away with a new car. Great experience. Thanks Mike & Walter

Best car buying experience EVER! Sal was attentive while discussing what we were looking for in a new vehicle. Matt was amazing with his zero pressure approach while ensuring we got exactly the car we wanted. Anthony took the time to explain every payment option until we could decide what worked best for us. I would definitely recommend Pine Belt Nissan to all my family and friends. We left there feeling like family.

I purchased a used 2009 Cube at Pinebelt Nissan in 2011. My wife was just about the only driver of the car. So i decided to put the car in her name. That was more trouble than I expected. Since the warranty was in my name, that had to be changed. Even though she is my wife, there was a $50 fee to change the ownership of warranty. Service manager John Kravchak helped me through this with the proper forms and the way to approach it. Eventually, I found someone on the warranty line who helped me as well. I was even reimbursed for my $50. Once the car was in my wife's name, she decided it made sense to service it closer to home. So she picked a dealer in Edison - within walking distance of home. Then I called Mr. Kravchak and asked for a favor. I explained what happened. I then asked how I could arrange to get the maintenance records for the Cube so the new dealership would have a history for the car. He said he would print out the records and I could pick them up on a Saturday once I presented my driver's license. He didn't have to do any of those things. But he understands customer service.Thanks John, for making things a little easier.

Very enjoyable experience. Speedy sales and prompt service. Fred and Nick were extremely knowledgeable and helpful in identifying the correct vehicle for myself. Recommended for everyone!

Positively the best service experience I have ever had. I gave all "great" scores because the work is done right and on time, the first time. This dealership does not make you feel pressured to have extra non-essential work done, they treat you fairly and courteously. Plus, the car is returned cleaned on the inside and out.

Gregg Manasso in service is an outstanding worker. He treats me with excellent service and he makes sure everything is done great from start to finish.John Kravcheck who is the service manager always treats everyone with the up most respect he does his job with excellence and knowledge of anything i bring to him!

I have been to Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport on several occasions and with each visit, their customer service had worsened. I will never be returning nor will I be a patron of Nissan (at least this specific dealer) ever again. On several occasions while my vehicle was within warranty, I would bring my vehicle in to have problems diagnosed and the technicians have never been able to "duplicate my issues". Upon my warranty expiring I had brought the vehicle in for a simple oil change and the Service Rep had approached me with a work order stating that my vehicle needs services done of over $650. All of the stated issues should have been taken care of when I was within warranty. My last issue was on May 11, 2013, I had simply called the parts department regarding a simple part, I had the part number ready, the person I spoke to was Bill, Bill had given me EXTREME attitude and was literally screaming into the phone because he had been pulled away from his lunch time in order to answer my call. Bill was screaming at me as if I were a child that did not understand English. That is intolerable and I will never be doing business with Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport. I highly recommend that all customers stay away from this dealer because your trips will leave you infuriated, feeling abused and disrespected.

When I returned my leased Nissan I was assured by the dealer that there was nothing wrong with my car and I will not get billed for any wear on it. That is the only reason I bought a car from them. Well now a month later I have a bill from Nissan Acceptance for $1600. When I contacted the dealer they tolled me that there is nothing they will do about it. So all of the assurances are nothing once you buy the car that is it. A BUNCH OF LIERS.

From my first call to signing on the doted line, my experience with pine belt has been nothing but excellent. I came in with my wife to purchase a car for her birthday and we were able to leave with the perfect one. Franz was vey helpful and kept the atmosphere light hearted. Chris was the first person I spoke with and he was also very helpful. Never once did i feel pressured or gimmicked. I recommend anyone in the market for a Nissan should visit Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport.

Even though I live in Staten Island, my family and I always get our cars here because of the great service provided. Rob Carlson especially does a great job and is very much on top of things. I can only highly recommend this dealership and employee.

This was one of the top two car buying experiences for me, and I've purchased over 6 vehicles in the past 10 years. Walter was upfront and I am the type of person who appreciates frankness. I didn't feel pressured in any way and that's a rare thing when you're in a car dealership.

Our Salesman Al Caggiano was very friendly, listened to our needs, passed along the sales incentives in a very informative, concise way to explain our better options in order to get the car that we wanted. Al was very patient and knowledgeable in showing me the different choices in colors, interiors and extras. Anthony Szaraz made the financial process very easy and the amount of paperwork needed to sign was clearly explained and very easy to understand. Very friendly and personable. Rich Hendrickson was professional, kind and very courteous in solving a problem for us and we were very appreciative in the quick response to our phone call. I would recommend this dealership to everyone!

I wish there were more than a 5 star rating to give this dealership!!! I have been looking to purchase a vehicle for over a month now due to my lease expiring with F*rd.. Unfortunately, I have had some questionable experiences recently. As I am not a novice to the whole car purchasing process, I felt my recent experiences with other competition disconcerting to say the least. That is, until I made the decision to visit Nissan.. Right away I knew I could deal with the salesman that approached me.. Franz is the epitome of professionalism.. He was never curt nor pushy.. he was extremely knowledgable about the product and answered every question with out hesitation. He truly was interested and dedicated to us the entire time we were there! Our test drive was a real drive, not a 2 minute sprint down a back street!! He was very patient and really worked to find a suitable price point!! Thank you Franz for really helping us get into this car that I really wanted!!!On the the financial end where we had the pleasure to meet Anthony.. Again, never pushy!! But made sure that all of our options were clearly presented to us!! And again, very professional, and sincerely interested in assisting us through the whole buying process!! What is generally a very lengthy procedure was 20 minutes at best!! Thank you Anthony!!!I don't even know how many cars I have purchased or leased in my lifetime, but I have got to say that this was by far on the top of the list as the best car buying experience. Thank you PineBelt Nissan for staffing your dealership with caring, professional, knowledgable and down-to earth staff!! You have earned a return customer!!Would I recommend?!? WITHOUT HESITATION!!!

the salesman Robert Carlson really knew his product. At no time did I feel pressured or uncomfortable.Even after I signed the papers he took the time to explain to me all of the vehicle options even past the dealerships closing time.The manager took the time to come over and make sure I was happy and understood everything.

This is our second car from Pine Belt Nissan in Keyport. I have purchased and leased many cars in my lifetime they are by far the best i have ever dealt with. professional courteous people in all aspects. i would highly recommend that if you are looking for the best deal without all the hassels then do yourself a favor and go to this dealership. They are first class!

The reason why I came to Pine Belt Nissan, was in the past I have used them for service, with this good experince, I choose to use them to purchase my next car. Nissans have always mean reliable cars, for me in the past, I came to the dealer to buy a car, and to drive it off the lot the same day. Working with Joe Aker was a great experience, he took his time with my concerns, this why I would use Pine Belt Nissan and Joe Aker for any future purchases and I will recommend both to anyone interested in buying a car.

I walked into the dealership and explainedto Joe what I needed, he was very understanding, and got to work right away. He showed me 3 cars, and explained everything he knew about them. He showed me the car fax report. He was very friendly, polite, and straight forward with me. I felt very comfortable working with him. He made my car buying experience stress free, quick, and comfortable.

I recently purchased a 2012 Nissan Murano from this dealership, and i was very pleased with my overall experience. The salesman i dealt with were professional, and also very easy to deal with as far as making a deal everyone was comfortable with. I would recommend this dealership and also use them again in the future for a purchase.

Second Vehicle we have leased from this Dealership. Sal, Nick and especially Matt worked hard to fit the new lease into the payment structure we could deal with in these difficult times. We have recommended Pine Belt of Keyport to other families we know who have also purchased and or leased vehicles from here. My wife was very pleased with the car itself as well as the lease payments and term.

My experience was excellent. Rob was outstanding and very attentive and caring. Excellent salesman. Looked out for us and treated us as if we were buying a $50,000 car. My experience was Pinebelt Nissan with both Rob and Richard was the best ever and I know that I will only deal with them and ask all my friends and family to do the same.

Second Time customer at this dealership, longtime Nissan owner, TJ was very knowledgeable and not a pushy typical salesman, He listened to my needs and addressed them and sure enough I drove out tof there with 2 new vehicles, Satisfied, no stress, no false promises and no unexpected additional expenses a pleasure to work with! Hassle free! Thats why I give them a high rating.

I went into Pinebelt cause I wanted to look at a Altima, however I wasnt sure if I wanted an Altima or a Sonota.. so I went to look and was greeted by TJ, at first I was worried cause hes a young kid. But I was wrong. He was such a nice kid and helped me with EVERYTHING!! he understood that I still wanted to look at the sonota and his sales manager Mike came out and he was very nice to and very understanding as well that i wanted to look at the sonota and i promised that i would come back to them if i decided to go with the altima, they gave me there cards and said to call them with any questions.. the next day I got a call from Ashley who was such a sweet girl!! she thanked me for coming in and i explained everything to her and she was understanding too and told me to call them with any questions.. I went to look at the sonota and the dealership i went to was nothing like pinebelt, so i called Ashley she set me up with an appointment to come back in with TJ , went that day and bought the car and my finance manager Anthony was a very nice guy as well... Pinebelt is full of nice, caring people and everyone should go there!!! i wouldnt have wanted to go anywhere else!!!

I went in to look at cars with my dad. It was my purchase of a car, and my first real experience at a dealership. The first salesman that came up to us was Jonathan Korkowski. He was nothing but honest and genuine and did everything he could to make the process easier. He, along with the others I came into contact with made it so much easier and more enjoyable to buy a car from this dealership. I thought buying my first car would be so stressful and nerve racking, but these men made it a very simple, and fun. I will definitely recommend this dealership, and the three men that helped me, to anyone i know that needs a car.

In January my husband and I visited Pine Belt Nissan and was greeted very warmly by a salesman who spent a great amount of time with us. The salesman whom we trusted because of his easy way in dealing with us was Fred Hanzman and although we were debating if we were or were not going to get a car that day, we did leave with a 2013 Nissan Versa!Fred was a gentleman to work with and we really appreciate his patience in dealing with us!Thank you Fred!

This is my second leased vehicle from Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport. From the moment I walked into the dealership to the completion of my deal, the following employees, Rich Hendrickson, Fred Hanzman and the finance gentlemen, Mark Sorrentino were great. They answered all my questions, gave me the best deal and explained everything as we proceeded with the sale. When I was finished with my paperwork, Fred came out to my new vehicle with me and my husband and showed us how to work everything in the car. He also set up my bluetooth and showed me how to use the Navigation system.I will definitely recommend, Fred, Rich and Mark to all my friends who may be looking for a car.

I decided to ditch my old Pontiac and try out a Nissan. I walked in a little hesitant, not knowing what kind of price or car i was going to get. But after talking with Eric my worries were at ease. He helped me find what i wanted in my price range and was not a pushy car salesmen you see on TV (Wasn't a big fan of his ties though). I will definetly recommend anyone who is thinking about buying a new or used car to go to Pine belt and seek out Eric.

I have given this rating because I had a excellent experience at this dealership. I went to the dealership and requested a quote and got one instantly. I was not pressured into adding anything on to the vehicle that I had not originally requested. I appreciated this. It showed me that the sale was being done how I wanted it. Rob was a great salesman, he answered all my questions and took the time to show my all the aspects of my new vehicle. He made me feel comfortable when asking the questions, I never once felt like he was trying to add pressure on me to make the deal. I respect that because when salesmen are to pushy, it becomes an annoyance. Rob got me a wonderful price and all the features that I wanted in my new car. The quality of the work ethic at the dealership and from Rob was also wonderful. Rob was very helpful and I greatly appreciated him taking the time to make my experience at Pine Belt Nissan a great one. I would recommend Rob and Pine Belt Nissan to anyone looking for car!

Rob Carlson sold me a new Altima, and made it a very easy-going and relaxing experience. Big purchases like this are often stressful but they made this experience quite the opposite. All of the details about the car and the purchase were thoroughly explained to me and all of my questions were answered. They were very clear and simple in their explanations to be sure that I did not get confused. I would recommend purchasing a car from this dealer, and I would purchase another one from him in the future. Excellent, excellent job!

I would highly recommend checking this dealership out if you are interested in a Nissan. I have purchased two vehicles in eight years thus far from this dealership. The process was as painless as possible, and the price negotiation was haggle-free. You need to do your research on manufacturer list prices, and compare other brands against the model you're interested in before you purchase your vehicle, and I guarantee you'll be happy with the pricing offered by Pine Belt. Customer service is great, and I didn't feel like I wasn't getting a good deal. I just bought my second Murano, and I'm loving every minute of driving it every chance I get!

Stopped in at pinebelt nissan after a bad experience at sansone nissan in avenel. When I first entered the store I was greeted by Eric and from the moment I met him I knew this was going to be a smooth and easy deal. Eric was upfront and honest with a good sense of humor. After the test drive i was waiting for some stressful negotations but i honestly couldnt have asked for an easier process. If your looking for a car pinebelt nissan is the answer. If you want a fun and easy buying experience thats outside the norm of buying a car ask for Eric.

I recently financed a car that I had been leasing. Anthony took all of my information over the phone. We made an appointment to do the required paperwork. He assured me he would have me in and out in 20 minutes. I sort of laughed to myself, but he was true to his word. Actually, it took 18, not 20. On top of that he was able to save me about $100 over what I had been paying on my lease.

I have leased multiple vehicles from Pine Belt Nissan for the past six years. The staff is incredibly friendly and made this a wonderful experience. As a first time customer of leasing my own car I was weary of the process, but both Debra and Rich made sure that I understood everything there was about leasing a car for the first time. I also come to Pine Belt to get my car serviced; they are very flexible with making an appointment which is convenient and makes my life easier. I would and have highly recommended this dealership to my friends and family.

With Debra Smith as the lead contact person, Pine Belt provided me with the deal I was looking for. I had been to 3-4 other dealers, including dirtbags at Freehold Hyundai and a few others and no one gave me a fair trade value for my used car . . . until Pine Belt did so. I had done a lot of homework and the Pine Belt folks really listened to my facts and needs and the deal I wanted. Within 1.5 hours the dal as done and I drove my new car out.There is no 'sleeze' factor at Pine Belt, so I will probably buy my next car there as well.

Called today, got a different person and was disconnected. Called back immediately and got a third person and was told other went to the bathroom. If this is the treatment you get before you show up there, what happens after you buy a car?

I must say this dealer knows what it is to work as a team and know how to put car buyers first and not take advantage of us buyer. My experience at this dealer was mind blowing.. The first person that made my experience good was Robert Carlson came to greet my wife and I he was very nice and well spoken, which he made my test drive a easy breeze went ever all the features in the car and explain everything on the car. He even explained why i should of went to a better model to help me save money. Which was a super plus.. After i said ill take the car Rich Willis the sales manager come by to thank and congratulate me on my purchase and spoke to me and made sure my visit there was going well and asked if i had any question or concerns. The finace guy made it very easy and very patient explaining lease thing to me cause i had a lot of questions.. After it was all and done swapping things in my new car Robert Carlson came out and helped with my things and made sure my experience was good for all the mangers to play an active roll in the process of the sales deal was great most mangers dont even know what my name is at most places i bought at..

I have bought two Nissan vehicles from Al Caggiano and he has been a tremendous help to me and my wife. Al is not a typical slick salesman. I felt with both transactions that Al genuinely put my interests first and then tried to work as my representative with the dealership to get me the best vehicle at the best possible price. If you wish to buy a car without the usual new car purchase hassle, Al is your man.

My name is Tom Crockett and I worked with Rocco at Pine Pelt in effort to assist my mother; Madeline Crockett with leasing a new Nissan Rogue.Rocco was the utmost professional and worked with me regarding the leasing parameters over the phone and managed this process in an excellent manner in my opinion. I am a business owner, have extended experience with sales/customer service and can honestly say that 'this deal' was managed exactly the way that is should have been by Rocco and his management. Not only did we hammer out all of the details over the phone, but Rocco was able to provide a competitive price match via his management without trying to play any games at all or make things more difficult than they should have been. Upon arriving to consumate the deal and pick up the car it was a painless experience because everything was exactly as we negotiated and alot of the premilinary credit application information was already complete from working over the phone earlier in the day. We were in and out of the dealership in roughly an hours time and it was a stress free experience. The dealership itself was extremely clean and comfortable and everyone looked friendly and professional.Kudos to Rocco and team as we will definitely recommend Pine Pelt in the future! I have bought/leased many cars and can say first hand this it is not always as smooth as Rocco made it to be for us...Thanks again,Tom & Madeline Crockett

I had a really great experience with Pine Belt Nissan. Joseph Aker was a a terrific salesman who was friendly and honest from the start. Based on what I could afford Joseph helped me figure out the best model for me and didn't try to up-sell me or put me in a hole with a more expensive car. He was able to answer all of my questions from the most minute details of the car to any financial issues that came to mind. From the test drive to driving off the lot in my brand new car, I had a pleasant experience and from now on Pine Belt Nissan will be a preferred dealer for me and my family. We will definitely be back for our next car.

Had the right vibe right away thanks to Vito Falsone, our saleman. We had been to another dealership the week before, and felt very let down. Vito went the extra mile w/us, from making us feel comfortable, which, is important when you have kids w/you like we did, to letting us know he was doing everything possible to give us a good deal; and, we see that he did, according to all our research. Satisfied completely, and would encourage others to visit.

I have been a customer of Pinebelt Keyport for 17 years and each and every time they exceed my expectations. Bob Vasquez was extremely helpful, accomodating and buttoned up. Bob and Mike Kelleher carefully listened to my needs and crafted a deal with me that more than worked with the sometimes ambiguous parameters I laid out. Their professionalism and flexibility reaffirm to me what I have felt the past 17 years...that Pinebelt Keyport is by far the best dealership in New Jersey.

We bought our first Nissan Sentra in 2008 from Fred and Pine Belt. We were very happy with it. Unfortunately, I was rear-ended and we needed a new car. We came right away back to Fred. We bought another Nissan Sentra. We tested a couple of cars, but we really liked the Sentra, and Fred really helped with any and all questions we had. He is easy to work with, very knowledgeable about the cars, and really takes the time to make sure we, the customer, are happy with our choice and with Pine Belt. We now love our new Sentra as much, if not more, than our old Sentra!

Your salesman, Bob, was courteous, knowledgeable, & working within our budget. We explained what we could afford, how long we would like to have our loan for, amount of money we could put as down payment and what we could pay per month. Bob was great, came within our budget on all things. No high pressure! The first car offered was not within our budget, Bob did not know that at the time, worked with us and within minutes we were driving an affordable second choice. I would recommend Pinebelt Nisson to anyone and of course Bob. We have bought a few cars from your dealership and never have had a problem. As a matter of fact, the car we were replacing was bought there. Would still have it except was totaled in an accident. 7 years and was still in great shape mechanically and outside. Thank you Bob & Mark for a wonderful experience purchasing our 2009 Sentra,which we love. Elsie & Peter Rooney

I have purchased and serviced numerous Nissans at Pine Belt Keyport. I always feel welcomed and feel at home. Everyone is friendly and they always look forward to seeing me at the dealership. I truly believe that no other dealership can be better. That's the main reason I always return. The other reason of course is that Nissan vehicles are super great, very reliable and gets great gas mileage. I couldn't expect any better from any other brand vehicle. Joe Sheff

Franz and the whole Pine Belt team was very helpful in getting us into the car we wanted at a fair price. While their product basically sells itself, a dedicated sales force eases the transaction. This was our second deal with this dealership. There will be a third.

I was very happy and satisfied with my car buying experience. Franz Crane was extremely knowledgeable in helping me to decide to purchase a new 2012 Nissan Altima 2.5SL. I was somewhat undecided when I got to the dealership on Saturday but the overall experience convinced me that I was doing the right thing. I absolutely love the car and will highly recommend Pine Belt Nissan and Franz Crane to any one trying to decide to purchase a car. Thank you to Franz and all of the sales associates that were there on Saturday.

Joe Aker definitely helped with the whole process. Made it quick and easy. At first was a bit skeptical in general about car sales people, but he's only trying to help.If I had to buy a car again in the future from Nissan, I'd go here and find Joe.

The salesman,James Materano,was very courteous and attentive to our needs. I felt that the brakes needed to be checked, after the test drive, and Nick, the sales manager, had them checked and they took care of the problem. They worked with me with the price and financing. They were very professional and helpful. I would recommned this dealership to anyone.

Buying a new car for the first time was very scary for me, but the moment I got out of my old car everyone at Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport put me at ease. James met us at the door and made my mom and I feel right at home. He not only did his job, but he went beyond it. He was able to work with my budget to find me the best deal and car! Not only did he find me the perfect deal and car, but also went beyond even that. I had never had my own insurence before so he helped me call around to different places to find me the perfect insurence as well. I was amazed on how helpful he was. I left Nissan excited, happy, insured, and with a brand new 2012 Nissan Juke. I love the Juke. I would reccomend James, NIssan Pine Belt of Keyport, and the Juke to everyone I know. James turned a scary situation for me into an amazing experience. Thank-you to James and everyone who we met that day!!Angela Cornacchia

Bob was a top notch salesmen. He listened to what I needed in a truck and didn't try to sell me on thinks that I didn't need. I never felt any pressure to purchase a vehicle and we agreed on a fair price. I drove all the way from Queens, New York to purchase a Vehicle from Pine Belt and I'm glad I did..I Highly recommended Mr. Vasquez and Pine Belt.

Place basically told me one thing over the Internet and changed what they said once I got to the dealership. All these positive reviews of this place I would guess are written by relatives. Nick is basically rude and really did not care that I came in after being lied to over the Internet. At least admit the mistake; I could have understood that but don't sit there and lie to my face.Enuff said.

I had an outstanding buying experience, with the help of my sales person, Walter Jacobsen.I felt no pressure throughout the process. Walter was extremely helpful, making sure thatI purchased the car that I wanted, and was able to negotiate a fair and reasonable price formy new 2012 Nissan Altima. I would highly recommend Pine Belt Keyport, and especiallyWalter Jacobsen to anyone interested in buying a Nissan.

Nick went out of his way to help my brother and I purchase our new Rogues. He was courteous, knowledgeable, and most importantly, fair in his deal. When my lease is up I will gladly return to do business with him. Tommy G. was the sales associate who completed the sale and was equally as outstanding. It was a pleasure leasing my car from them.

What a great experience!! My wife and I stopped in on our "date day" to look at the Juke. It was a horrible day weather wise but decided to go anyway. Upon our arrival, we greeted outside by Jeffrey with absolutely NO pressure and he proceeded to tell us that anything we needed he was there. When we finally sat down, I can not express how friendly and easy dealing with these gentleman was. "Big Mike" the sales manager worked really hard to get us where we needed to be and was able to get us there! I would recommend this dealer to anyone interested in a Nissan because of the outstanding experience we had! Keep up the good work!D and C

went in fore first oil change at at4000 miles after buying a certified preowned sentra with 13000 miles from the dealership. Very convenient location for me one reason I purchased the car there...their lifetime warranty ...was attractive since I drive at100 miles a day 5 days a week for work.. all highway miles . First they told me I would have to come there every 3700 miles regardless of how I drove (hwy etc) or the warranty would be void even though the manufacturer recomends up to every 7500 for highway drivers. I have taken many cars thru 200,000 miles and I know regular oil changes are a must. But every 3700 miles? Then , I was told my battery was bad....I had only been driving for 2 months in this new "certified pre owned sentra" Now I need a new Battery? I have had no trouble starting etc...Then I was told I needed to replace both the engine and compartment air filter. I thought this would have been done since I just bought the car with 13000 miles on it.The cabin air filter and installment would be $89. The engine $46.00. I forego the battery jibberish and had the filters replaced and the oil changed. I was told this would keep the "lifetime warranty" valid. $ 159 . dollars later , when I thought I was going for an oil change. The lifetime warranty is not free I see , it seems to be paid for thru excessive and unnecessary service required. I was not told that when I purchased the car. And so much for the value of a "Certified Pre Owned" purchase. FOLLOWUP........... To be fair I felt I must continue my review and why I changed my rating. I received a call from Peter Gilson in the service area and asked if I would give them a chance to make things right. I was very pleased with the return service and am happy that Pine Belt Nissan cared eneough to do what it took to correct what went wrong. We all have bad days and could all make improvements to our businesses, I am sure this experience has made Pine Belt Nissan even better than before. I love my new Nissan Sentra and I am glad I have Pine Belt Nissan to help me take care of it . Thank you Peter.

I had the most pleasant experience with this dealership. Both Nick and Brian allowed me all the time I needed to make my final decision without any pressure. I would highly recommend this dealership to anyone interested in buying or leasing a vehicle.

This was my first experience with a lease. I did do a ton of research over the phone and internet to ensure I knew the value of the vehicle going in to the dealership. I was comparing various makes and models, other then Nissan but in the same class of car. I had always heard good things about Nissan but never owned one. I walked out of the dealership leaving less money then I originally anticipated as a down payment on the lease. Additionally, they worked with me to secure a comfortable monthly payment which beat all deals I had previously reviewed.Overall, the experience at Pine Belt was a positive one, no stress and my daughter and I left extremely satisfied.

I was on a search for a white Juke at a fair price. I went to a couple of dealers before finding Pine Belt Automotive including the dealership where I purchased my '08 Rogue but was not happy with the way I was treated so I continued my search. I came across Pine Belt Automotive's website which had a "Chat"option and start a chat with Mike Del Priore online. Mike gave me the information I needed and the incentive to follow through with my search. Mike followed up the next day and invited me to visit the dealership which I did. At first I had my guard up because of the way I was treated previously. I was being told by other dealers that I would not find a white Juke any where, I would be lucky if I could find a Juke in any color no less white plus I was given overly inflated prices because of the demand for Jukes. So, when I visited Pine Belt Automotive I didn't expect much other than another waste of time. Wow, was I wrong! We were introduced to our salesman, Shawn Donnelly, who was honest, sincere and listened to what we had to say. Shawn was not pushy nor negative in his manner. He was very upbeat and positive with all his responses. When it came to negotiation, Nick Cataldo stepped in and I thought, OK, here we go with the BS but again I was wrong! Nick truly wanted to sell the car and did everything possible to make it happen. Nick was polite, courteous and professional in his manner. I was told by Shawn and Nick although they did not have a white Juke on the lot, they would find me one and I would be driving it home by the end of the week. Two days after we sealed the deal, Shawn called me saying he was on his way to pick up my car and we could pick it up in a few hours. Everyone we dealt with at Pine Belt Automotive treated us with respect. Shawn and Nick turned a stressful situation into my most pleasurable, enjoyable car buying experience I have encountered in my lifetime! Thank you, guys! I highly recommend Shawn, Nick and Pine Belt Automotive to any one and every one!

PURCHASING MY NEW 2011 JUKE WAS THE MOST STRESS FREE, PLEASURABLE EXPERIENCE I'VE EVER HAD. MY SALESMAN BRIAN SADOWSKI WAS PROFESSIONAL, POLITE, CALM, KNOWLEDGEABLE AND HONEST. THE MANAGER NICK CATALDO WAS EQUALLY PLEASANT BUT BRIAN WAS EXCEPTIONAL. BUYING A NEW CAR IS ALWAYS NERVE-WRACKING AND PINEBELT NISSAN WAS THE BEST DEALERSHIP I'VE EVER DEALT WITH AND I'M 50 YRS. OLD. I LOOK FORWARD TO SERVICING MY CAR THERE AND CONTINUING THE RELATIONSHIP FOR THE LIFE OF MY JUKE. THANK YOU PINE BELTPATTI SHAW.

I traded in my 2008 Honda CRV for a 2011 Nissan Rogue. When I walked in, a salesman jumped right up which I hate. However, the salesman came over, introduced himself and said he does not stand with people as he understands its uncomfortable and just said his name, Nick Cataldo, and where he is at should I have any questions. I had a lot of respect for that. We negotiated a trade in and a good price on the new Rogue. He was not pushy at all and was actually surprised when I said that he has a sale. He threw in a fix extras too. I have had bad experiences with dealerships and I have to say that Pine Belt Nissan is amazing! I will always purchase cars from them and no one else. If you are looking to purchase a car here, ask for Nick Cataldo. Great guy and a real professional.

It had been several years since either myself or my wife had purchased a new vehicle. Pine Belt Nissan and especially Nick Cataldo redefined the ecperience for us. With a roomy, comforatble and well managed showroom we felt very relaxed during the entire experience. Nick's product knowledge, attention to detail and friendly, accomodating manner made this our best car purchasing experience to date. We felt no sales pressure and we were very impressed with Nick's instruction reqarding our new Nissan Rogue 2011. Of particular note after the sale was Nick's assurance that he would continue to provided excellent service and that we should contact him for any furture needs. Thus far we are quite pleased with the Rogue; the purchase price was the most attractive we had researched (from at least four other Nissan dealerships). This is definately another feather in the dealership's cap. We will certainly be recommending Pine Belt Nissan whenever possible and we look forward to doing future business with the dealship's fine staff.

The salesmen showed me exactly what I was looking for in both used and new vehicles. He did not try and sell me something I wasn't looking for. I gave him my budget and we stuck with it. When I decided what I wanted to purchase the dealership had to find the vehicle and get it elsewhere. Everything was done timely and what was promised was delivered.

I was looking for a car that would suit my needs. I went to Nissan in Keyport and the salesman, Mr. Nick Cataldo, approached me and helped me pick out a great car. At first I was interested in a different type of car but after listening to Nick telling me about the Rogue, I was convinced that it would be a good purchase. Nick was NOT a pushy type of car saleman. He was a gentleman and pleasant to do business with. He answered all my questions and if I didn't understand he explained it in 'layman' terms for me. Thank you Nick for being a my car salesman...

He guided me through the entire process with no fine print lies and what I was told is what I got. If you are looking for a straight no games sales rep then nick is your man.

The salesperson Franz Crane was excellent. He has a friendly personality, is honest and very informed about inventory, models, options, incentives and prices. Franz is an asset to Pinebelt Nissan of Keyport and he made our dealership experience such a positive one, that we leased to vehicles from Pinebelt within 2 days. Overall I will not hesitate to send family and friends for their future automotive needs to Pinebelt Nissan of Keyport.

We purchased Nissan Sentra 2011 model on March 26, 2011 Saturday. It took about 5 hours to process all the paperwork. The instrument panel light wasn't working after several attempts to fix it by the salesman on the same day to pick up the car. On March 28, 2011 Monday, we brought back the car to dealership to fix the light and was taken care of after half an hour of waiting. On April 7, 2011 Thursday, we went back to the dealership to pick up the plates which were installed by the dealership after ten days. I feel it's aweful long to take that many days considering the DMV is right next door to the dealership. Also I feel I should be compensated or reimbursed on the mileage to make the extra 120 miles (2 trips)to bring back my car to the dealership for no fault of my own. Thanks. Victoria Yu, the buyer May, 28, 2011 Saturday.

I wanted to add that Pine Belt Nissan was the third and last Nissan dealership i visited in a week. I left the other nissan dealerships because i was unhappy with the salesmen, customer service as well as pricing and almost wanted to forget buying a nissan all together. i kept in contact with pine belt sales even during my search with other dealers. I heard great things about the sales department from other people who have purchased their nissan at pine belt so i decided to take their advise and contact the sales dept. I was in contact with Nick Cataldo and explained to him in detail exactly what i was looking for, what car i was interested and how much i wanted to pay for the vehicle. He was very friendly, professional and honest. He was even encouraging on how i deserved the vehicle when i was second guessing myself. Usually i would say "he was just being that way so he can get a deal" but i really didnt feel he was all about that, but truely wanted me to be happy with my decision. He worked with me on a deal that i am very pleased with. I wanted to add that the managers were also very helpful. I would recommend Pine Belt Nissan to anyone that is interested in purchasing a nissan and to deal directly with Nick. Thanks for making my car leasing experience a joyous one!!! truely yours,new nissan coupe leasee (debbie)

Pinebelt Nissan has a big, clean airy showroomthat displays many models for customers to inspect,unlike others that have just a few cars on its floor.The sales people are very friendly even though I had an appointment with a specific sales person named NickCataldo. They made efforts to locate Mr. Cataldo toensure that I would be taken care of.As for Mr. Cataldo, I leased a new car with him becausemy prior experience with him several years ago when heworked at another Nissan dealership was simply superb.His professional and social skills compelled me to dobusiness with him, no matter where he worked. And so eventhough I live on Staten Island, NY, I followed him to NewJersey simply because I knew he could find the best dealfor what I was looking for without the usual nonsense thatmost people encounter in searching for a car. In fact, heand I simply texted one another to reach a deal without myhaving to visit the showroom until the day i actually signedthe financial papers and drove off. He had the car prepped and ready and my entire time at theshowroom from the time I got there and until I drove offwas less than an hour, and this included a fifteen minutehands on lesson with him on the workings the of the new car.The finance person I dealt with was a very pleasant but professionally efficient staff person who got me out of thereas quickly as possible.Overall, this dealerships is absolutely excellent and NickCataldo is someone I would highly recommend to contact if youare interested in a car. I drove away from there with a greatfeeling that I got the best deal possible and in the mostfriendly and professional way. There are some places I havebeen to in the past where I have driven away feeling somewhatdirty, as if I had been taken, because of the high pressuresales and financial tactics, but definitely not here. One very satisfied customer!!!

I recently purchased a new Platinum Armada from Steve Linman at this dealership. Right from my initial call to the dealership it was a very positive experience. They confirmed the truck I was interested in was in stock and addressed my questions professionally before I arrived. I met Steve at the dealership and test drove the truck. Steve stayed late and set aside his personal time in handling the purchasing of my vehicle. Having small children at home my wife was tied up with kids in the bath and doing homework; Steve drove the truck to my home in Westfield so my wife didn't have to pack up three kids and leave the house. I would highly recommend this dealership. Steve demonstrated a concern for his customer and it made the purchase of a our new truck and very nice experience.

Bob took care of me throughout the entire experience. Not at any time did I feel like I was dealing with a typical Car dealer. They gave me a great deal and were very forthcoming about every detail of the transaction. I have already referred a friend to Bob and have no problem with continuing to do so.

For the first time ever, a few months ago, I leased a brand new car from Nissan. After years of driving a used car, it was time for something new. The salesman, Nick Cataldo, was outstanding in his workmanship. He took his time explaining everything to me and was patient with my questions. He used "car language" that I understood and made leasing a car as easy as 1,2,3. I would recommend any person, looking to buy or lease a car, to go to Nissan, specifically Mr. Cataldo at Pine Belt. His professionalism exceeded everything that I could have imagined.

This is by no means the first car I've purchased but it is the first time I felt the desire to comment on the dealer that sold me my car. Having spent the better part of a month looking around, getting quotes and test driving I decided to give Pine Belt Nissan a look. I'm very glad I did. Right from the getgo Bob Vasquez was there for me. His knowledge and service was second to none. He got questions answered and was extremely attentive to detail and making sure of my customer satisfaction. He gets 5 stars in my book.

I appreciate the help i received from Bob Vasquez and his crew at this dealership. I was in the area for a weekend event and my car broke down. I was 6 hours from home and in a pretty good jam. Rather than rent a car one way, and pay $300 i decided to buy a car, as i knew my other car was on it's last run. I didn't want to spend on repairs, as i knew a new car was on the horizon sometime soon.I found several Murano's in the area, but the one i liked the most for various reasons happened to be at Pinebelt. When i got there, it was the first and only one i tried. I luckily had 2 days i could spend looking and thinking. Bob made the process go easily given my situation. I finally made it home and feel very lucky i had Pinebelt for all of this. Thanks Bob and your team Robin Smith (Poirier)

I went to this location in hopes of leasing a new Nissan Altima. I was greeted in the lot by Mr. Bob Vazquez. It turns out that Bob and I had a lot in common and we pretty much hit it off right there. We talked at length about what I was looking for and Bob was able to answer all of my questions and steer me in the right direction. When we moved into the dealership, Bob was very accomaditing regarding my requests. We were able to find a car that suited not only my budget, but my wants and desires. Throughout my entire experience, I never felt pressured or like I was being taken advantage of. He explained everything in terms I could understand and was just an overall great salesman. He knew what I was looking for and did not push me in other directions. The car I wanted was at the Toms River location and Bob even took it upon himself to get me the car personally the next day. This was my first time dealing with a dealership and the first time I ever leased a new car, so I was very worried on how my experience would turn out. I highly recommend this dealership and its salesman, Bob Vazquez. I have already told my friends about Bob and hope they use him in the future. He made my first experience so enjoyable that as long as he is there, he will always get my business.

We were and continue to be impressed by the quality of staff we met, especially our salesman, Nick Cataldo, who I would recommend to anyone. He is quite professional, knowledgeable and best of all... he's a very nice guy. Pine Belt Nissan should be proud of the fact it has someone of the caliber of Nick working for them.Nick, thanks for making our car purchasing experience a delight.We look forward to future visits to Pine Belt Nissan.

My wife and I are very happy that we, stayed local, and went to Pine Belt to purchase our new Nissan Altima. We had decided beforehand to choose either a Chevy Malibu or the Altima. Having priced out the Malibu, we had our starting point. Bob Vazquez was our salesman. Bob was knowledgeable, but not pushy as my criteria was pretty basic - sedan model, 4-cylinders, good mileage and great value. Bob introduced to the line via the catalogue - then went to view the cars - picked the one we liked and Bob casually described the car's capabilities during the test drive. I knew that I wanted the car and Bob worked with the manager to make the price work for us. I would recommend both the car and this dealership to others. Thanks Bob for helping me get out of my 1999 Buick Regal!!!!

After a very bad first encounter with this dealership and a rapid response from the dealership to a negative comment here on dealer rater I did reach an agreement with the dealership through the general manager about price and finding a car I wanted. I feel I was given a fair price. I wish that the dealership would give a fair price when you first walk in instead of having to play all the sales games. The original lease price I was given the first time was $75 per month higher than what the general manager offered me after I posted a negative review of how I was treated.

A friend of a friend recommended Pine Belt Keyport to me after a deal I had with another NJ Nissan dealer went horribly wrong. Figuring all dealers are pretty much the same with the games they play, I braced myself for more shoddy service, but it never came! From start (Tina/phone) to finish (Marc/finance), I was proven wrong in my thinking! My salesperson was Nick Cataldo, who is completely knowledgable, totally professional and downright friendly. I bought the Juke. Since it was so new to the market, it had to be ordered, but Nick kept his word and kept me posted along the way, and it even came in a little earlier than expected. It was definitely worth the wait - the Juke is sweet! Nick went over every single feature of the car with me before I left the dealership and called me a week later to see how I liked it. I've bought new cars before but never has it been so easy or pain free as it was at Pine Belt Keyport - I'm still amazed! I was given a lifetime warranty so I'll be returning to them for my car maintenance and am actually looking forward to it. I would definitely recommend Nick and Pine Belt Keyport to anyone in the market for a car. Trust isn't usually a word associated with a car dealer but this isn't your average car dealer.

We found ourselves at Nissan / Keport and were amazed at the time, knowledge and care that was given to us and our needs. Our sales associate, Nick Cataldo, took his time and reviewed all our questions with great care. From start to finish, everyone we came in contact with, straight from walking in the door to pulling out of the parking lot, was the best experience I have recieved from a car dealer to date. We were so impressed not only with the staff, but the amazing deals be offered, we drove away with 2 brand new cars! It has been 1 years since our purchase and I have recieved several follow up calls, thank you letters, and even gift certificates in the mail from Nissan of Keport. I would HIGHLY recommend this dealer! We will be sure to see Nick again when ready to upgrade!

It was such a great experience to work with Nick Cataldo in finding the right car for us. His knowledge and genuine care and concern for our needs was both comforting and quite impressive. My husband and I had done some shopping around before ending up at Pine Belt Nissan and the service and knowledge from the other dealers were no match to Pine Belt. We drove away with a beautiful new Rogue and of course a great deal. Nearly two years later we still recieve reminders for maintanance service on our vehicle. We will be in the market for an upgrade soon as our family is growing and I am definitely going to be looking to Nick for another great deal. I already have and will continue to recommend Pine Belt Nissan to anyone in the market for a new or used vehicle!

It was a great experience from start to finish. I love the vehicle. Tommy was great to work with. Drove it home that day! Everyone I dealt with that day was so nice, really a pleasant experience. They even worked with me on getting my plates to me since I work full time and I have two toddlers at home. So grateful!

DebraAnn was great to work with. She really made things smooth and simple, and got me the car I wanted for the price I wanted to pay. There was no haggling, or messing around - just great salesmanship. I would definitely recommend Pine Belt and DebraAnn Smith.

Pinebelt Nissan of Keyport exudes professionalism. From top to bottom I was very pleased. I called in about a vehicle (used 2009 Altima) I had seen online and I was impressed by the presentation on their website. The girl that answered my inquiry was very pleasant and accommodating. After my phone call I was enticed to go to the dealership and check out the vehicle. I met with a salesmen and he was just as helpful. He was very pragmatic and disproved the stereo-type given to car salesmen. He was not sleezy at all and did everything in his power to get me the greatest deal possible. I also met with a manager. The term "attitude reflects leadership" holds true at Pinebelt Nissan. It was evident that the salesmen were great because management was great. My experience at Pinebelt Nissan of Keyport was unlike any other car purchasing experience. I never felt so comfortable at a car dealership in my life. I was in and out in a short time and I now am driving a great vehicle that I had purchased at a great price. They have a vast new and pre-owned inventory. I would definitely recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a vehicle of any make.

I decided to use the internet to aid in finding a new Rogue (2010). Initially, the internet representative was great. She answered promptly. Without any hassles she gave me what I thought was a very good quote. The only extras to be added was the tax, destination, and motor vehicle fees. She set me up with a salesman. We made three visits, the final one to make the purchase. When we first went to look at a car, the salesman was friendly, and wrote up the car and prices. He had added in a fee for window etching, $399. I said I do not want etching. First he told me all cars on the lot of etching for securtiy. When we looked at the car, I pointed out there was no etching on it. He said they just didn't get to it. So, I said, tell them not to do it, I don't want it. He told me that I get the money back from my insurance company. And that etching pays for itself. In any event, the salesman said that etching was mandatory there and it wasn't an option to decline it at this dealership and went on to tell me how salesmen have lost great commissions, because buyers sometimes refuse to pay the etching fee. When we wanted to buy the car, they refused to sell it to me unless I paid for etching. Again I heard how every car sold there has it. I pointed out that I checked with my insurance company and they said I would not get a discount for etching. When I told him this, he said my insurance company must be bad. Also from day one, he insisted no one would ever steal a car with etching on it. Nonsense. I told the manager if he showed me 5 cars purchased that day that had etching, I'd buy it. Well, as it turned out, none of them had it. They were only making me get etching because the price of the car was too good. This was rediculous... they gave me the price, now they are refusing to sell it to me without me paying for what most websites call one of the top 10 car dealer scams...... Etching! I walked.... I would never send anyone here. They believe in the etching scam. On friendliness..... I put very bad in survey because although they were friendly, they were also trying to take advantage of me.
