The full story
Why Nissan of Elgin earned this grade
Nissan Of Elgin has a D grade based on one small-sample quote from July 2026. This review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices and whether charges were clearly shown.
What they do well

Where to push back
The written offer listed a vehicle selling price of $51,234, which was $3,500 above the advertised price of $47,734. Ask, “Can you honor the advertised price in the written offer?”
The quote also included $1,799 in required extras. Ask what those extras cover and whether each is required before agreeing.
