Good morning,I am emailing following a negative review I left.I bought a car from Nissan Chester on 19th September. I was returning to work after maternity leave so wanted a larger car to accommodate driving kids around.1st issue – car was given to us with a broken key.Luckily, we tested both keys and realised one was completely broken. We emailed our sales rep Sam Jones on 25th September as I had forgotten a small doll that was hanging from my rearview mirror in my original car, that was of sentimental value – I’d asked if he had this, and mentioned the key was broken.I had nothing from this so chased again on 8th October. Sam advised he was waiting to speak to a manager regarding the key issue and he’d get back to me.Again, nothing. So I emailed on 03rd November, 3 weeks after last hearing from Sam asking what was happening with the key. Still no mention of the doll I’d left either.Sam finally responded to tell me to just pop into Chester whenever to get the key sorted.2nd issue – breakdown30th November, our car engine started smoking. 10 weeks after having the car.We had both children in the car, on the way back from the hospital with a very poorly baby, trying to find a pharmacy with his medication .So what was already a stressful time was escalated. The car engine was pouring with smoke so we had to pull over on a busy dual carriageway and get both kids out of the car ASAP. My daughter was in floods of tears terrified the car was going to set on fire with her in.Luckily we were close enough to home to get a lift and had to get the AA to rescue the vehicle. Their diagnostic was the thermostat was gone, the engine had leaked coolant and the engine would have blown completely if we had tried to drive home. They dropped at Nissan Chester the same night.We got given a courtesy car thankfully as we had hospital trips to make.The thermostat issue was repaired after 4 weeks. But upon a vehicle health check, we were advised one of the tyres was not road legal.3rd issue – a non-road legal tyreFrom the repair done, it was picked up that one of our tyres wasn’t road legal. Despite having gone through an MOT and service before sale weeks prior. I had only used this car for the school run so absolute minimal milage so I know the wear on this tyre was not me. This then leads me to believe Nissans checks have not been comprehensive, and we were driving in an unsafe car, one that we would have had to pay out for if this was not picked up.The car has had 3 issues within 3 months. I find this incredibly unacceptable and have zero faith in the quality of the car, and the checks Nissan have done on a part used car.I emailed my sales rep Sam Jones to question a complimentary 12 month warranty. I have lost all confidence in this car, and feel like it is only going to cost me money, which is not what I signed up for. If Nissan are so confident in their vehicles and the checks they provide, the complimentary warranty should not be an issue – but alas, Sam responded with the most scripted response even AI would question it to say no I can’t have it complimentary, but I can pay for one.I went back to Sam to ask to escalate my thoughts, opinions, and request for this warranty to a manager on 31st December and I have been ignored since, no response.I have always bought pre-owned cars and have never once had an issue, yet my first Nissan has 3 issues in 3 months. I believe the quality of the car is terrible, the checks done by Nissan Chester are obviously not sufficient. I agree the thermostat can break at any time, but the key was not checked, nor was the tyre. Quite simply, a complimentary warranty is the very least we should get with this, I should be handing the vehicle back! My daughter is scared to go in the car!The sales and after service have been terrible to non-existent.I will note the ladies on the service / repair desk were lovely and brilliant – that is my only positive experience with Nissan.Kind Regards,Emma QuinnCategory ManagerNHS Supply ChainAddress: Unit 5 Telford Court, Chester Gates, Dunkirk Trading Estate, Chester, CH1 6LTMobile: 07720157231Email: emma.quinn@supplychain.nhs.ukWebsite | Twitter | LinkedIn

It is now nearly 3pm on Monday 5th January 2026 and my 1st email was sent 16.53 on Thursday 1st January 2026, and still no one has contacted me to address the issues with my car. The Car that is only 7 months old and has been in with Nissan Lookers Chester 2 times prior to this - 1st time less than 24 hours after driving off the forecourt, and the 2nd 2 months into owning the car.I shouldn't have to keep chasing for someone to make contact with me to arrange for my car to be looked at, this lack of customer service is just not acceptable.

Knew what car and model I wanted.Bought nissan qashqai nconnecta model with 14 miles ( delivery ) and registered one month.Sam did the deal

I booked a service because of a vehicle recall and after rearranging it to secure a courtesy car so I can get to work. I turned up and was told there isn’t a courtesy car booked for me.I am now late for work. The level of customer service has been really poor from the start in all honesty. Trying to book a service is complicated enough with the lookers website and happy to help giving you 2 different dates.If I’ve booked a courtesy car to get to work. I don’t understand why it hasn’t been sorted.I can happily provide a screenshot of the form I filled out with my signature with it very clearly stating that a courtesy car was booked. If you have an email address to send that to.

As we are still awaiting to find if Nissan have approved the work to be carried out – we left our vehicle with you last Tuesday and so almost 1 week later we are still waiting for to be rectified so it seems inappropriate for us to complete this survey.Thanks Donald Tyson
