To our valued customers, We’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support during this difficult time. Like many of you, our family here at Younger Nissan feels the weight of the current situation our nation faces and we’re doing everything we can to ensure that we are here for our customers with whatever their needs may be. In compliance with state and federal directives, we have had to place strict restrictions on our new and used car sales. While this is hard for our team and customers, we feel that it is our responsibility to do our part in the community to help flatten the curve. With that being said, we would like to outline our procedures going forward as of now. Our sales department is OPEN but by APPOINTMENT ONLY. This means you must call us or schedule an appointment online before coming into the dealership. That appointment must be accepted as well. So, once you schedule your appointment please wait until a team member contacts you. Our service and parts departments also remain open to assist you with any needs your vehicle may need in the weeks to come. Even if your vehicle isn’t a Nissan, our team can still assist you with your needs. We want to remind you that your vehicle maintenance is crucial and we encourage you to schedule a service appointment with our team online today. You can do so online today or you can give us a call to choose a convenient time that best fits your schedule. We have also taken extra measures to ensure that our dealerships are clean and disinfected multiple times throughout the day. We continue to monitor this ever-changing situation and will adjust our procedures as we feel necessary. We thank you for your continued loyalty to our family and look forward to assisting you and your family any way we can in the near future. Get More Information Here!

Here at Younger Nissan of Frederick, we aim to provide all of our customers with simple and hassle-free experiences. Whether you’re stopping in to find the perfect Nissan to lease or buy or looking to get your ride serviced, we want to ensure your experience is seamless. So we thought it would be important to tell you about the things you should bring in with you if you’re looking to purchase a vehicle with us! Not every customer’s intention when walking through our doors is to buy a vehicle on the spot, many like to browse around, and that’s totally okay! However, more times than not, our customers will find a vehicle they love, but they don’t have all this paperwork they need to start the buying process. So in order to help ensure you drive away behind the wheel of your new vehicle, that day, take a look below for all the paperwork you’ll need! Your driver’s license: Your I.D. is proof that you are a legally registered driver, this is important since you have to drive off the lot. Your driver’s license is a way to identify that the check or another form of payment is actually yours, too. Your payment form: Whether it is a bank, credit union, or personal check, pre-approved loan, or any other payment form - be sure to bring it. If you are planning to put money towards a down payment you will need some way to pay for it. Proof of insurance: In order to drive your new vehicle off the lot, you will need proof of insurance. It’s a good idea to call your insurance company ahead of time and add the new vehicle to your existing policy. You’ll need the car’s VIN number to set this up. You can also call from the dealership and have them fax or email the insurance card to the dealership. Title/ Registration for your trade-in: If you are trading in a vehicle, be sure to bring the title. If you have a co-signer or a lien against the car, get the appropriate signature ahead of time. This part can be tricky and sometimes causes a hold-up. Give the dealership a call if you are unsure how to go about this. Also, you will need a copy of your current registration. Loan account number: If you are trading in a vehicle and still owe on your loan, bring the loan account number. This number is on one of your pay stubs. You can also call the lender beforehand and ask how to facilitate the transaction. Just starting your car shopping? No problem! We invite you to take a peek at our new or used inventory now! Once you find the right vehicle for you, schedule a test drive or stop into Younger Nissan of Frederick, and our team will help assist you with all your questions! Find Your Dream Nissan Today!

For a buyer, these factors work in your favor to save money. Holiday Shopping: Yeah we know, thinking of buying a car during the most expensive holiday season might sound crazy, but during the holiday season cars continuously lower.

Having the upper hand: When traffic is down at a dealership, salespeople can usually take more time to explain in-depth about a car you are interested in, show you similar models, review features, safety concerns and more.

As we say goodbye to the snow we say hello to the rain. We all knew it was coming, the only way we are going to get the pretty flowers is if we let it rain. I guess we will take rain over snow, it’s easier to drive in, right? Wrong! In fact, many of us believe it’s easier to drive in the spring but the truth is rain makes the road very slippery, making it just as dangerous as snow. One thing you want to avoid when driving in the rain is hydroplaning. So what is hydroplaning? Well, it is the skidding or sliding of your vehicle’s tires on a wet surface like the road. And although many of us fear driving in the pouring rain, the truth is the most dangerous part of driving in the rain is in the first ten minutes of a storm. Why? Because when light rain mixes with oil and residue on the road, it becomes a slipping slide for your vehicle. So how do you avoid hydroplaning? Check out our helpful tips below! How To Avoid Hydroplaning Keep your tires properly inflated Rotate and replace tires when necessary Slow down when roads are wet: the faster you drive, the harder it is for your tires to scatter the water Stay away from puddles and standing water Avoid driving in outer lanes where water tends to accumulate Try to drive in the tire tracks left by the cars in front of you Turn off cruise control Drive in a lower gear Avoid hard braking Try not to make sharp or quick turns Find Your Dream Nissan Today!
