Germain Nissan of Columbus

I recently bought a new car. I had a very nice Honda Accord, but if it had been a dog, it would have been long dead, and it started showing signs that it was on a quick decline in health. My bills were Accord, but if it had been a dog, it would have been long dead, and it started showing signs that it was on a quick decline in health. My bills were such that I could take on the debt of a new car as long as I found something SUPER economical. I researched what could be an affordable yet awesome option and went looking around on-line. My dad was a life-time Ford employee, and because of that I receive a 10% discount on a new Ford. I found a couple of Fiesta's and Focus' at Ricart Ford so my husband and I went there to test drive them. When we got there, we were greeted by a young whippersnapper-type who seemed very nice. We told him that we were still in the “just looking” stage, but he convinced us to come in and see what the payments would be. Before we knew it my credit score was being pulled and I was being SERIOUSLY bullied and lied to by their finance guy into buying a car that I clearly could not afford. When we decided to go, the finance guy literally chased us out to our car, and we had to peel out of the lot like bank robbers. Fighting Post Traumatic Stress Disorder we decided to test drive a Versa (which scored very high in my on-line search for “Most Affordable New Car”) at Germain Nissan near Easton. I had e-mailed back and forth with one of their sales people, but when we arrived he was with another customer so we were helped by Ladonshay Jackson (aka. “Deezy”). He was the most down-to-earth and honest salesperson I have ever worked with. He didn't sugar coat anything about the car. We even chucked about the car's lack of horsepower when we took it on the highway. He basically GOT that I needed low monthly payments instead of a fancy, tricked out car and sold us instead on the roominess of the vehicle and on Nissan's awesome service plan after purchase (almost as good a leased car's service plan!). Honestly, I just needed a super-reliable, affordable car, but Germain Nissan's amazing team was what made me choose my new Versa. I HIGHLY recommend Germain Nissan if you want to have a positive car-buying experience. Their staff is fun and friendly and NOT full of b.s.! More

A great first car buying experience. I was expecting crazy sales tricks and maybe an argument.... But Brad was very patient with all the questions, helpful and honest.

My wife and I purchased a car from Germain before and we really like Nissans. Even though another Nissan dealer is closer to us, we prefer to deal with Germain. Our intent that day was not to buy a car, b really like Nissans. Even though another Nissan dealer is closer to us, we prefer to deal with Germain. Our intent that day was not to buy a car, but to get a repair done on one of our other Nissans and to look around. Brad put up with us as we looked at many cars and finally settled in on the Altima as it wss the roomiest. Having chosen the type of car for us, Brad found us a new/used one (current year model) and in our price range and with low mileage. Having agreed on the car, we had a delema: how to get two cars back home. My wife doesn't like to drive the car that was in the shop and she was nervous about driving the new car in heavy traffic to get home. Brad stepped up and drove the new car to my house (and had a friend drive him back). At my home he went over all the details again. For the distance he had to travel to do that, he went above and beyond what other dealers would do, and we appreciated that. More

My salesman Michael Banton was very friendly and not pushy at all. One thing I do not like from dealers is when they rush you and you feel like you are a piece of meat and they are vultures on for the k pushy at all.

He was very knowledgable about the car I bought and asnwered all my questions. I would recommend him to more people. More

I drove to Germain Nissan in Columbus from Cincinnati because they had the vehicle that I wanted and a competitive price. My wife and I were very impressed with the level of customer service that we rec because they had the vehicle that I wanted and a competitive price. My wife and I were very impressed with the level of customer service that we received from Jeremy. He was very knowledgeable about the vehicle we purchased and provided us with several tips and suggestions. We purchased a pre-owned vehicle and it looked brand new when we drove it off the lot! The only trouble we encountered occurred when we got home. Unfortunately one of the brake calibers was not working properly. Germain Nissan took full responsibility and corrected the issue immediately. I definitely recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a relaxed, educated and "no hassle" sales experience. More

My wife bought a Maxima about 2 years ago from Mike Banton, and we really enjoyed our experience with the entire staff. I was in need of a new used vehicle, and there was no question who I was going to Banton, and we really enjoyed our experience with the entire staff. I was in need of a new used vehicle, and there was no question who I was going to buy from. I would highly recommend seeing any of the sales people at Germaine Nissan. If Mike is available, even better. He's a great guy and will get you the car, truck, or whatever you're looking for. More

We have leased 3 new Altimas (2 recently)from Germain Nissan, and higly recommend our salesman, Brad Jordan, from whom we leased the last two. Brad is not only personable, helpful, and honest, but is als Nissan, and higly recommend our salesman, Brad Jordan, from whom we leased the last two. Brad is not only personable, helpful, and honest, but is also very knowledgeable about the Nissan vehicle. What I like most about Brad is that he is "pre-emptive" in contacting my husband and me about upcoming special deals, without sounding "pushy". He comes across as caring about and understanding our needs. I recently recommended Brad and Germain Nissan to my sister and nephew, and both have purchased new Nissan Altimas within the past few months. Also, I do want to mention that the the Finance Specialist, Karl Davis, was extremely helpful and did a wonderful job of leading us through the financing process. He was expeditious and transparent, which we appreciated. Also, although making us aware of extra available services, he at no time tried to pressure us into buying those services. By the way, we love our new Nissan Altimas, and would higly recommend buying or leasing from Brad, Karl and Germain Nissan. More

My husband and I purchased our first car from Germain, and it was a great experience! The sales associate was very friendly and didn't pressure us into anything. Everyone we encountered greeted us with s and it was a great experience! The sales associate was very friendly and didn't pressure us into anything. Everyone we encountered greeted us with smiles and friendly comments. Germain had great prices and knowledgable associates. They don't make you feel pressured to buy anything, and they really worked hard to get us the loan we needed for the car we loved. They will definitely be getting our business in the future! More
