But, instead of getting a gas card, Sheila got a $500 voucher, with strings attached. "You have to send $100 worth of receipts a month to received $25 back," said Sheila.
That's a problem for Sheila. She doesn't drive enough to make the $100 per month gas quota. "It's a little tough with gas prices down to do $100 a month."
Sheila's next door neighbor, Josephine DelPesce, says she also got a worthless gas voucher after buying a car from Massapequa Nissan. "It's being devious now, with this. You know, being taken for a ride," said Josephine.
So we went to Massapequa Nissan. We showed the manager their own original ad promising gas cards and he quickly came around, "We'll reimburse them, I mean that's not an issue."
And the next day? "At quarter to 3 the doorbell rang and there was FEDEX and when I opened it up I screamed because I saw $500!" said Sheila.
Both ladies got checks for 500-dollars, "And a free oil change. Thank you."
A rep for Massapequa Nissan told us they started giving out vouchers because they ran out of gas cards. They said they'd switch out checks for vouchers for any unsatisfied customers.
