Banister Nissan of Norfolk

One hour for a oil change. I had a appointment for 7:30am. This was my 3rd 5000 oil change. No good morning. Staff appeared overwhelmed at 7:30am. The first oil change took 20min. 2nd took almost 2 hours. T This was my 3rd 5000 oil change. No good morning. Staff appeared overwhelmed at 7:30am. The first oil change took 20min. 2nd took almost 2 hours. This one a hour. Why can't I have my oil changed somewhere else. I don't mind paying for it. Your customer service needs a inservice on customer relations. Definitely need to have a couple of people who do just oil changes. Same with the Chesapeake dealership. I brought 2 cars. My daughter has the same complaint. Sales department 10. Service department in Norfolk? More

Absolutely no accountability! They will fix one thing, create a new problem, and charge you for something else! I shouldn't be surprised that they are here to make money, but I sti They will fix one thing, create a new problem, and charge you for something else! I shouldn't be surprised that they are here to make money, but I still thought a loyal customer meant something. More

Service Department Ripoff I would give zero stars if I could! My 81 year old Mom took her 2012 Rogue to Banister Nissan yesterday to get an inspection, an oil/filter change, I would give zero stars if I could! My 81 year old Mom took her 2012 Rogue to Banister Nissan yesterday to get an inspection, an oil/filter change, and her wipers replaced. They did all of that, and no issues with those services. However, they also talked her into getting the Bilstein engine flush, a brake system flush, and a fuel system cleaning/flush. I think they charged my Mom in excess of $250 for those services, and none of them were needed. My Mom's car only has 28K miles on it. An engine flush "could" be beneficial in an old car, where regular oil was used and not changed very often. My Mom's car only has 28K miles on it and has always had full synthetic oil on regular changes. As for the fuel system flush, give me a break. Fuel injectors "can" get dirty, in about 80K miles. Certainly not at 28K miles, and even if they were, a can of fuel injector cleaner can fix that - not a $100 service at the dealership. Finally, the brake system flush is pretty much a cash grab and a predatory service pushed upon people that don't know anything about vehicle maintenance. The brake system is a closed system. It would never need to be flushed unless it was somehow contaminated, and I'm not even sure how that it could happen on it's own. It's xxxx unlikely on a low mileage car. Clearly this dealership saw my Mom as an easy mark, and she usually calls me BEFORE she allows anyone to do any work. She didn't this time, and these criminals took full advantage of her. Joe Wachner, the Service Manager there, is clearly running a predator like service department, taking advantage of people who don't know any better. He should be ashamed! My Dad was a career Marine, and if he was still with us, he would be in there ripping this dealership a new one. And I'm not local, or I'd be in there doing the same. I did reach out to them yesterday, and to this point they have ignored my inquiries. My Mom, an 81 year old military widow is on a fixed budget and doesn't deserved to be ripped off like this. And really cannot afford to be. I implore the Tidewater military community to stay away from Banister Nissan. And really, all of Tidewater. No one deserves to get ripped off, and that's what this place does. They rip you off. Hit them where it counts the most. Take your business elsewhere. More
