I have never heard anything about midway before good or bad, so I thought I’d try them out. I went in to look at an suv. I recently bought another one a couple months ago from another dealership and I’m just not comfortable with how it handles. I was well aware that I would lose money trading in so soon and there would be a carryover amount to be financed. They asked what I had left on my finance amount and when I told them they just refused to work with me at all stating that someone would be out 7k and it wasn’t going to be them. (6k was carried over from my last trade in so I’d only be losing 1k on this vehicle) Well no ***t. I never expected anyone other than me to deal with that extra amount. They didn’t bother asking if I understood there would be a carryover amount in addition to the purchase price, just assumed I had no idea what the hell I was doing.... one of my pet peeves. Ask people if they understand something instead of assuming they don’t. Anyways they had the one I was interested in in the garage after changing the radiator and said my mechanics would know about the issue if I mentioned it to them. Well I looked it up myself and they did me a favor. Regardless of whether the radiator is replaced or not if the radiator fluid has already leaked into the transmission, the transmission will fail without warning on three different models of 05-10 Nissan auto transmission suvs. I mentioned if the Nissan wouldn’t work I was interested in another suv on the lot. I was told the brakes needed to be replaced.?. The Nissan I was looking at was $1,000 over the nada price with a soon to fail transmission and the other suv I was looking at was only $200 below nada price.... both with issues. After I stated I was aware of the 7k difference in trade in value they were more than happy to sell me something tomorrow, but I won’t be back. Seriously, if you’re in any type of sales business always ask questions, if you don’t think a buyer understands. Don’t assume people don’t know anything. It’s rude.
