I bought a vehicle just before the new year, within just a few hours of purchasing the vehicle I noticed the back up camera wasn’t working, you couldn’t see anything when you reversed which is one of the op a few hours of purchasing the vehicle I noticed the back up camera wasn’t working, you couldn’t see anything when you reversed which is one of the options I asked for in a vehicle. I called back right away to get the issue fixed unlike most dealerships would fix the issue especially knowing it was just bought 2 hours earlier. They did not want to fix the issue they went around the problem and rather than fix the camera and make their clients feel good about their new purchase they lost future customers due to these simple issues they could have fixed. I would not recommend this dealership after the service i have received. More

GET A PRIVATE MECHANICAL INSPECTION *ITS A LONG STORY, BUT ITS WORTH READING IF YOU'RE CONSIDERING THIS DEALERSHIP* I found a car I was interested in at Car Nation on the North Servic *ITS A LONG STORY, BUT ITS WORTH READING IF YOU'RE CONSIDERING THIS DEALERSHIP* I found a car I was interested in at Car Nation on the North Service Rd in Burlington. I asked to have my mechanic look at it as the CarFax report showed the vehicle had been in an accident. I was told that before the car could leave the lot I would need to sign a bill of sale with a stipulation of a mechanical inspection, and agree that I would purchase the car upon receipt of a satisfactory inspection report from my mechanic. I was also told I would need to sign the ownership of my current vehicle, a 2014 Toyota Sienna, and leave it with the dealership as it was being used as a trade in for the potential sale. My mechanic’s report found the vehicle needed repairs including an alignment and new tires, so I asked the dealership to complete an alignment due to the unusual, uneven wear of the tires. The alignment was supposedly completed by Car Nation Direct, but when I was ready to pick up the vehicle I asked to see the report. It showed the rear wheels were out of alignment. I was introduced to Mike Pinto as the Service Manager who said the alignment on the rear wheels COULD NOT be adjusted due to a manufacturer setting from Volkswagen. I noticed that the rear wheels were out at different percentages. I asked why, if it was a manufacturer’s setting the numbers would be different on each side. Mr. Pinto returned and said he wasn’t sure why that would be the case. At this point, I was walked across the hall to another office. Mr. Cieslak, an Assistant Sales Manager was now the 6th person at the dealership I had been directed to deal with in regards to the vehicle. Mr. Cieslak asked what the issue was, I told him the alignment report was not satisfactory. He asked what I wanted Car Nation to do about it. I said I had only agreed to purchase the car if a satisfactory alignment report was provided. He told me it was “disappointing” I was asking for this since work had already been done on the car. He then left the office. The original salesperson I spoke to, came to tell me the car was back in the service bay on the alignment machine. Shortly after, Mr. Cieslak returned with an additional alignment report, with different numbers than the first report, showing the rear wheels were now aligned. I questioned how this was possible if it were, in fact, a manufacturer’s setting. Mr. Cieslak said the earlier technician must have either forgotten to do a proper alignment or didn’t have the correct “Volkswagen” tool. I did not feel good about the entire situation and said I would call tomorrow to follow up. I hadn’t decided what to do at this point. As I was walking out of the dealership, Mr. Cieslak loudly aggressively said, “The new vehicle is already in your name!” which I interpreted as a tactic to intimidate me to take the vehicle despite the misleading mechanical work by the dealership. At this point I had lost faith in the integrity of the dealership and the technicians reports, and had to wait a further week to get a refund on my deposit and to have my van ownership returned. I was never once apologized to, nor did anyone at the dealership ever even remotely demonstrate concern at what had happened. I would strongly caution anyone shopping here to USE THEIR DUE DILIGENCE AND GET A PRIVATE MECHANICAL INSPECTION! Do not sign anything with them unless you are 100% sure the vehicle is what you expect, and what you want. More
I recently bought a 2012 Challenger from car nation in Burlington and had a great experience with the staff and overall process of purchasing a used vehicle. Marco, the salesman, was excellent and very ac Burlington and had a great experience with the staff and overall process of purchasing a used vehicle. Marco, the salesman, was excellent and very accommodating throughout. I would purchase from car nation again and recommend them to friends in the future. Thanks guys, Darren Clarke More

2018 Nissan Rogue Evan was very informative and took his time with us. He was detail-oriented and let me know all of the features of the vehicle even before I considere Evan was very informative and took his time with us. He was detail-oriented and let me know all of the features of the vehicle even before I considered purchasing the it. Evan never pressured us to purchase the vehicle which I appreciate. The only negative is, I referred my parents to purchase a vehicle with Evan and they were told I would receive $100 for referring my parents to him. My parents purchased their vehicle back in the summer and I am still waiting for my $100. My dad has contacted Evan to let him know and he said he would speak with the finance department. This is not an issue with Evan but with the accounts payable department. More
Excellent customer service, thank you Marco! I've always had a bad experience in the past buying vehicles from different dealerships. This was definitely not the case at Car Nation Direct. Marc I've always had a bad experience in the past buying vehicles from different dealerships. This was definitely not the case at Car Nation Direct. Marco Pereira made the whole experience stress free and he was not pushy at all which i found really refreshing. He's a true gentleman and I will definitely be referring family and friends to him. My husband and I love our Rogue! Not only did we purchase a car but we also made a new friend. Cheers! More
He was very patient with us during the process and suggested us the best possible deals. He is very humble and we had a great experience buying a car with him. suggested us the best possible deals. He is very humble and we had a great experience buying a car with him. More
