I want to start by saying that we have been dealing with 518 Auto for years, and it has always been our go-to place since they first opened. We have typically worked directly with Kyle, the owner, especially because our children drive these vehicles and he truly values safety. This time, however, we worked with Mark. Things started off well. I made it clear that the vehicle was for my son, and initially, Mark seemed attentive. He even asked for a Yelp review while I was signing the paperwork, but I prefer to wait until the entire process is completed before leaving a review. Unfortunately, after the paperwork was signed, the experience went downhill. The vehicle needed servicing because the battery would not start. Mark informed my son that a part had to be ordered and that the car would be ready on Monday or Tuesday. Monday passed, and on Tuesday (1/13/26), Mark texted my son stating the vehicle would be ready at 1:00 PM. When my son and husband arrived on Tuesday, things became frustrating. They were told that the temporary tags Ms. Hall had prepared were misplaced. My husband also noticed that Mark seemed more focused on selling cars to other customers rather than assisting the customer who was standing right in front of him. It felt as though my son and his vehicle were no longer a priority since the paperwork was signed. When the car was finally started, it became clear that there was no gas in the vehicle. Mark continued running the car despite this and stated he was too busy to get gas, yet the car could not be moved off the lot. The car eventually ran out of gas right there. Mark then said he would send someone to get gas. After waiting for some time, someone arrived with a gas can, filled the vehicle, and Mark said everything was fine. However, once my husband got into the car to finally leave, he realized that the windows and radio were not working. Because of this, we were unable to even check the heating and cooling to see how it worked. My husband went back inside to inform Mark, but instead of addressing the issue, Mark told him hold on, made a phone call, spoke briefly to others, stated he was leaving, and walked out leaving my husband standing in the parking lot without any explanation. Before my husband could become more upset, AJ stepped in thankfully. I want to sincerely thank AJ, Alex, Ms. Hall, and Scott for stepping up and helping us through this situation. Their efforts did not go unnoticed. They worked together as a team to help resolve the issue. While we are still waiting for the vehicle to be fully serviced, AJ and Scott went above and beyond by providing us with a loaner car in the meantime. Because of them, our confidence in 518 Auto has not been completely lost, and we truly appreciate their professionalism and support. read more

518 Auto Sales - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

One star because I can't rate it zero stars. I purchased a 2005 Prius a week ago do $4,000 + $1,000 in fees (including a $999 processing fee) and after driving it for a few days: - I had to oil the car - The check engine light and Prius triangle light (Master Warning Light) came on, which indicates a serious issue needing immediate attention I took it to a mechanic to read the codes, and he said the dealer probably wiped the warning lights before selling it (codes: p0a1b and p0420). Then I took it to the Toyota dealership for diagnostics ($208), and the initial repairs will total $4,500 -- and then they need to check out the hybrid system after! The costs for repair are way more than the cost of the car! read more

I bought a used car from this dealership and had a very disappointing experience. The salesperson (Mark) did not disclose several important issues with the vehicle before the purchase. At the time of sale, I was not informed about these defects at all. After buying the car, I discovered problems that should have been disclosed earlier. When I went back to the dealership, I was told that these issues were not their responsibility. Based on my experience, I recommend that anyone considering buying from this dealership be extremely careful, ask detailed questions, and have the vehicle fully inspected before purchasing. Unfortunately, I regret this purchase and would not buy from this dealership again. Because of this experience, I decided to pursue formal consumer complaint options and would advise others to be very cautious. read more

Liars & thieves They told me to return the vehicle, which I did. Told me to return on Friday to pick up my $. Done that n now they are refusing to issue me back my $1,500 in a check form 5-7 business days and I waited. Was told to pick up my check later on in the week. That time had passed and now the agent never put in for my refund until today, wtf ? Oh my, & that wobbly later in finance is a modern day Medea, lol I will never look at that dealership the same. It's a stain on da city of Norfolk. read more

BUYER BEWARE - 518 Auto Sales (Norfolk, VA) On October 29th, I purchased a used vehicle from 518 Auto Sales in Norfolk. I made it clear that I was buying this car so our youth football team could safely travel to games and events. Even knowing this, the dealership showed no compassion or concern for what they were selling. The same day I drove it off the lot, I didn't even make it past the gas station before the car started having serious issues. The dealership agreed to take the vehicle back and make repairs. After 50 days, I finally received the car back on December 18th. The very next day (December 19th), I had it inspected by an independent mechanic -- and the results were shocking. The vehicle has: * A disabled/removed check engine light * 8 active engine fault codes * Multiple serious mechanical issues * A car that should never have passed inspection When the mechanic attempted to manually trigger the check engine light, it would not come on, confirming that it had been intentionally disabled. Even worse, the Carfax shows repairs that were supposedly performed by the dealership -- but they were never actually completed. Despite all of this, the dealership is now hiding behind "sold as-is" and claiming I must "prove" they knew about the problems -- even though the car was in their possession for 50 days and the warning system was clearly tampered with. I am also active-duty military, and I will be reporting this dealership so they can be blacklisted from military sales programs and so other service members do not lose their hard-earned money to this kind of business. This has been an absolute nightmare. PLEASE do not spend your hard-earned money at this dealership. They do not stand behind their vehicles or their customers -- even when it involves kids' safety and military families. read more

I drove an hour to see a prius they had agreed to hold for me. When I got there they had sold it.

Do not buy from here I bought a car a month ago and when I got home I realized that they took the sunroof motor out of the car and it was open and leaking, so I sealed it no big deal. Then not even two weeks later noises start coming from the engine and now I have to replace all spark plugs, three ignition coils and the catalytic converter. Fuck my life read more

So I bought this vehicle 01.24.2026 did not receive it because had to inspect it 02.04.2026 took it back on 02.06.2026 would have took it back on the 4th but no one would call me back. so Finally no one would call me back so I just took it back I had it for 3 weeks and drove it maybe 40 miles because had issues. Service said I replaced the wheel barrons but we recommend the rear differential to be replaced. But you can drive it. NO YOU CAN NOT IT VERY Dangerous. So they were supposed to talk to management well that was over a week ago still waiting. NO call back or return call like they said. Contacted lender and they are taking care of it. They are scam Liars and thieves. The DEVIL. Then I asked why I did not get copies of paperwork and they said we will get it to you still holding my breath. So no i have not received that. read more

They like to scam young sailors. I had a C School student distressed because they sold him a piece of crap that threw a rod the day after he drove it off the lot. They wouldn't give him his money back and tried to give another POS of less value. I've heard recently from peers they are still the same guys pulling the same crap. So I went undercover pretending to want to purchase a truck in 2025. I asked if I could take it and pay Priority Ford (which a mile further down the road) for used car pre-purchase inspection and they wouldn't let me. Only the scammers will flip trash from auctions "As-is" operate like that. Stay away! read more

Absolutely horrible drove almost 2 hours to test drive a car after calling first to get there and told something came up and the car was not there...would give 0 stars if I could read more

Worst dealership in the 757. they should be ashamed to look in the mirror knowing the rip people off on a daily basis. Customer service is non-existent. read more

More and more issues with the car that were hidden.. Never received a response or any correspondence from the Dealer.. BEWARE read more

Update: My car has now resulted in repair costs of thousands of dollars and more to come. The transmission gave out and needed to be replaced. That alone was over $3k to replace. Now the ignition isn't working properly; The key gets stuck and I have to pop open the board under the shift to manually make the car park. The belt by the engine now screeches and the engine light is lit up on the dash board. I love my car and I'm taking care of her. I'm just grateful to be in the military so the marine relief society is able to help me cover the heavy costs. But for those who aren't as fortunate, do not buy a car from this business. You'd be better off buying from an individual. read more

518 Auto Sales - September 28th, 2024 (1st day with vehicle). Major problem occurred October 21st, 2025 - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

Literally wasted 1 hour and 30 minutes of my time driving over to the dealership just to find out that they sold the vehicle I was interested in and saw online. I literally made an appointment!! Why is it listed online if the car was already sold!!! I do not recommend this place! read more

We went here many years ago hoping it was still decent because they list a lot online. It was not.... We did not check recent reviews. Live and learn. They live up to all the old stereotypes of used car dealers. Fake friendly until you try to walk away or they get that $$ in their hands. Salesmen was more interested in a sale than taking care of prepping vehicle for pickup. Sales manager was not interested in making us happy after they got paid. Long story short, this place isn't worth rolling the dice. There are plenty more options out there. read more

As my daughter and I were on the hunt for a used vehicle for her, we stopped by 518 Auto Sales and was quickly greeted by one of their associates. He sat us down at a computer and asked us what we were looking for in a vehicle and our budget so we can view their inventory. He was very attentive and even told us which vehicles to stay away from which I thoroughly appreciated. After he wrote down a few cars for us to view from their inventory, we were escorted out by the sales associate who was very friendly and helpful. We were able to freely test drive the cars which I liked. My daughter was fascinated in a Jeep that was on the lot but after test driving it, we noticed a weird jerking feeling in how it drove and it seemed to have some mechanical issues. The sales associate did point out some other cars for us to look at that were within our price range but unfortunately, she didn't see any that caught her eye. I did like that they had a large variety of used cars for sale and the associates were very knowledgeable but from the issue with the Jeep and the other reviews of this business, I probably won't return back to this place or recommend it. read more

518 Auto Sales - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

Scam on internet pricing fee. $1000 processing fee, $1500 if you want a 3 month warranty. Sales rep was not very respectful. Seemed to get short and dismissive when I inquired about the "add ons." read more

0 Stars. Regret not reading reviews first, been in talks of a car for over a week, I don't live locally but have a friend who does, after setting up a meeting hours prior, he drove half an hour to go look at the car just to be told he's not allowed to because a "deposit was JUST made on it" (been on the lot 3 years, zero warning or notice of this deposit) at an undisclosed time today, when he tried to leave, the rep stopped him and tried to get me (on the phone) to outbid the "Deposit" of an undisclosed amount on the car I already said I was willing to put 85% down on same day after inspection. If the deposit was even real, simply a disingenuous slimy dealer, if it's fake, straight up illegal. After reading the reviews, if they decide to change their mind and actually honor their word, It's going under the condition he can use an OBD scanner. Owner seems to simply apologize for the rampant issues at his lot rather than actually try and solve any issues. read more

518 Auto Sales was a pleasure to work with. Chad was extremely helpful in our pursuit of a car for our son.

I bought my first car here and I took my stepdad who knows a lot about cars. He got underneath the car in the cold wet rain, and he took his flashlight look in the engine, undercarriage, spare tie, everywhere and said it was the cleanest used car he'd seen on the lot that we looked. The day after I bought the car he noticed a leak coming from the oil pan. They said they won't fix it since we bought as is, but the cleaned it so well that they hid the oil leak. Also they never mentioned that the windshield was replaced and repaired. So when somehow it got a little crack in it, and I called to get it repaired the technician said it's been repaired before and so it needs to be replaced. I bought this car and the $1000 warranty that is level 1 and it doesn't cover the windshield. 10/10 don't recommend buying a car from here. People that sold me the car were friendly but I won't be recommending this place to anyone. If there was a zero star option I would choose it. read more

First off $999 processing fee is a f*cking scam. Second the car I got which I regret to this day for not double checking had no working low beams EVEN though the inspection report said it was working. The AC doesn't work and again inspection said it worked. This place will scam you out for your money, don't even bother because the carfax report was bullsh*t too. They said it was only two owners only to find out later it was 5. This place is not worth your time. read more

Hidden 1,000 dollar processing fee that is not included in their false advertisements

I bought a 2015 Jeep. My sales consultant was Anthony. He is very good at what he does. He assured me that I was making a good purchase. And I believe him. Mistake #1. This truck has been in and out of the shop since I purchased it. Motor issues, radiator issues and now the check engine light is on. Please do your homework when purchasing from this dealership. I understand that it is an 'AS-IS' dealership, however, you'd be better off just going to an auction. At least there, there are no expectations. I'm extremely disappointed in this purchase and having buyers remorse. read more

I am currently shopping for a car for my daughter as she will be turning 16 very soon. I don't have a lot of money but I found a vehicle online which looked like it was within my price range. I emailed the dealer, 518 Auto Sales, chatted with the "bot" & received a text message verifying my interest. With all 3 of those (chat, email, text), I stated I would like to test drive the vehicle & asked if the vehicle would be on site & ready for a test drive when I got there. I never got an answer, even though the appointment was already booked. So, about an hour before my appointment, I called 518 Auto Sales because it's about a half hour away from my home. I didn't want to make the trip if I couldn't test drive it, as I had already stated several times. I spoke with someone, I know his name but I'm not going to blast him, but he informed me that the vehicle was there & I would be able to test drive it but said he had to locate it. Now, as I said, 518 Auto Sales is a half hour from my house so I drove out there, expecting to test drive the vehicle. I was greeted & treated pleasantly by another employee. When I told him who I had spoken with & that he would help me, the man who greeted me said that the employee was busy with another customer & that HE could help me. After a few minutes, they located the vehicle, it was in the back but apparently was just recently traded in & has transmission issues so it was not driveable!!! Are you serious? I made an appointment several days ahead of time, the appointment was for a test drive & even spoke with an employee who told me it was there & ready to go, drove a half hour after work only to be told, "We have lots of other vehicles available." Uhh, no! I'm here to test drive the vehicle I inquired about several days ago! I didn't raise my voice or lose my cool. I didn't even say anything cuz at this point, it doesn't matter, the damage is done. Mark was the employee that eventually showed me the vehicle & he was very courteous. But the fact that they have so many vehicles & so many employees, not one person could simply tell me, "It's not driveable at the moment. Maybe we should schedule an appointment when it's ready." That's ridiculous & it's very rude. I will not be doing any business with 518 Auto Sales in the future & will make sure to tell anyone who asks about buying a vehicle. At this point they would have to fix the vehicle & give it to my daughter themselves, cuz I'm not buying it. You want to make it right, fix the vehicle & give it to my daughter for her 16th birthday. Otherwise, no soup for you! Next! read more

WARNING!!!!!!!!! WARNING !!!!! WARNING!!!! do not purchase from this dealership. untruthful and deceitful sales of car. research lemon laws before you come here!!!!! Purchased a vehicle from here(2017 Subaru Forester). A few weeks later, my dash board lit up with notification caution lights. I went in to the Subaru Dealership to get it looked at and have a diagnostic done. When they called me, they told me I needed a transmission valve body replaced, transmission fluid flushed and replaced, and many other issues with the car. I tried calling Morris Vaughn to help with this problem, because he claimed everything was great with the vehicle and nothing was wrong with it. There has not been any response from anyone and this is poor customer performance service. DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THIS DEALERSHIP read more

2017 Dodge Durango Was sold a Dodge Durango that came with financial hardship and no one to turn to. TJ successfully scammed me out of thousands of dollars for his selfish gain. We looked at many cars as TJ puffed his THC vape and complained about the amount of cars we looked at. Many of the cars have cosmetic damage and some didn't start. The Mazda 6 that we were interested in initially didn't even start! Tj brought out a battery charger then made false claims that the battery was disconnected. Since when do we "disconnect" batteries on lots where cars are on show case to be sold. Tj ensured we would miss any defects with the car by limiting where we drove for test drive. The issue with the 2017 Dodge Durango is that when you approach speeds around 40 miles per hour, the vehicle shakes violently and the check engine light flashes as you drive down the highway. TJ was aware of this issue as he manipulated where we drove stop light to stop light to avoid those issues to show themselves. I recommend 518 be invested for fraud They bring no value to the Hampton's roads area. This is the nightmare dealership of the community. read more

518 AUTO SALES SCAM I brought a vehicle from 518 auto sales my sales representative was Tj. As soon as I got on the interstate 5 mins after leaving the dealership the engine like came on I called them back and tj told me to bring the car in. Then he called back and told me to bring it in Monday. Monday came and I brought them the vehicle back they told me that it's my responsibility for getting the car fixed. Which buying a car as is means I'm responsible. 518 knew that this car had problems and didn't say anything. I would say over half of their cars had something wrong with it. I would never refer anyone here. It's like they are a scam, that's how I see it. People come to establishment such as 518 Auto sales with their last dime with the intentions to purchase a used vehicle just to find out they were scammed. Now have to come out of pocket to fix the vehicle. For you and your best interest please bring a mechanic with you and take the car you interested in on the highway because Tj told me where to go so I wouldn't go on the highway to discover the issues. I feel robbed and not valued as a customer looking to purchase a vehicle. read more

518 AUTO SALES SCAMS DISABLED VETERAN If you're considering purchasing a vehicle from 518 Auto Sales, I implore you to reconsider based on my dreadful experience. Last Friday, I paid over $900 to have a vehicle shipped from Virginia to Albany, Georgia, for my brother, trusting their commitment to a timely and smooth transaction. However, the reality has been anything but. Firstly, the price of the car did not at all reflect its condition, but despite my reservations, I proceeded because it was the vehicle my brother has always desired. From the moment the purchase was finalized, the service plummeted into non-existence. Promised updates on shipping were absent, and attempts to establish communication have been utterly futile. Since the supposed shipping date, I have called the dealership THREE times, contacted the salesperson directly TWICE, and left MULTIPLE messages. Responses? None. During two calls, I reached someone who only put me on hold for over 12 minutes each time, leading nowhere. Emails and texts have similarly gone unanswered. It's now Wednesday--a full business week--and not only is the vehicle's whereabouts unknown, but no one at 518 Auto Sales seems capable of picking up a phone or responding to a message. The dealership indicated that the car might arrive by Sunday, or Monday at the latest, yet it's midweek with no word, no confirmation, nothing. My brother is effectively housebound, waiting for a delivery that was supposed to be a surprise and straightforward. This lack of communication and disregard for customer service is not only UNPROFESSIONAL; it's DISRESPECTFUL, ESPECIALLY IN A MILITARY TOWN where you EXPECT BUSINESSES TO DEMONSTRATE INTEGRITY AND RESPECT TOWARDS SERVICE MEMBERS. Walking into 518 Auto Sales, you might be impressed by the lineup of sleek or clean cars, but don't be deceived. The quality of their vehicles is not matched by their customer service, which is non-existent once they've made a sale. With a dubious mix of high internal ratings and a mediocre public score, it's clear that this dealership prioritizes facade over substance. This isn't just POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE; it's an outright NEGLECT OF BASIC BUSINESS ETHICS. I AM APPALLED AND DEEPLY REGRET MY DECISION TO ENGAGE WITH 518 AUTO SALES. To others in the military community and beyond, LOOK ELSEWHERE WHERE YOUR SERVICE AND SACRIFICE ARE RESPECTED AND VALUED. read more

Step-son just purchased a truck from this "dealership" and it was easily the worst transaction I've ever been a part of! If you're expecting to walk in, purchase a vehicle and drive out, stand clear of this place. Nearly a solid week between signed paperwork, check handed over, and actual receipt of the truck! Why? Because they have some standard operating procedure of NOT inspecting a vehicle until it's sold. That means a very large percentage of their vehicles are sitting on the lot with expired or NO valid state inspection. Communication is easily the worst I've ever seen. Once we delivered the bank check, nearly total radio silence from sales person and staff. I'd suggest staying clear of 518 Auto Sales read more

Bought a truck one year ago. It was not inspected and it took several weeks to finally get the truck from them fully inspected. Then it took another several weeks to get the title. Drove the truck for a year and now it's time for inspection and it won't pass. It needs $7000 worth of work to pass. Frame is rusted out. We only paid $7000 for it to begin with and it's a 20 year old truck. We're going to trade it for about $2500 and put the money into a better car. I would not trust to buy from this seller again as I think they have a deal with someone to just pass the inspection so they can get rid of the cars. read more

Shady place don't ever buy a vehicle from them... check this out... I'm a mechanic by trade. I have owned many Lincolns and Cadillacs in my lifetime and for me they're pretty easy to work on as far as 98 to 2012 series. They had a 98 Lincoln town car there and they wanted top dollar for it so I went to go check it out. And I went underneath the chassis took a bunch of photos and approach three different reps. At first I play dumb and tried to lowball them, then I busted out the facts... bad brakes, bald tires, rusted, oxygen sensors, crusty fuel lines, and the shittiest airbag conversion for the rear lift assembly I've ever seen. I mean, they literally put a spring in there without the proper boots, no shock absorber like literally if somebody hits a bump that spring can fly out and someone's getting into a car accident. Somebody please put this business under before they get somebody hurt. read more

If you value money, time and authentic customer service then I highly advise to "STAY AWAY" from 518 Auto. I bought a 2001 Honda CRV after my truck was totaled. I purchased the warranty along with the vehicle. Did a test drive, everything seems fine. However, a week later, the engine dies, luckily I got the warranty (or some kind of fake service guarantee BS). They would not honor that warranty or document, they would not even check if the vehicle was within its contractual obligation (This is just as bad as those telemarketers selling warranty). I even sent the vehicle to have a mechanic look at it but I would not get any help from 518 Auto or the warranty service personnel to follow through. So I had the warranty service canceled and got some of my money back. Major waste of time and money. read more

As a retired service member, I feel obligated to share my experience at 518 Auto they have not kept the commitments they made in the sales agreement they made when I purchased the car. If you are a veteran, a service member, a DOD employee, the family member of any above and/or a consumer I would encourage you to take your business elsewhere. The salespeople at 518 Auto are very good at what they do, they will treat you like a friend during the sales process and become completely unresponsive once you drive the car off the lot. The salesperson I worked with showed me his car that he alleged he bought and bragged about making $500 per car he sales and clearing $20 to $30K a month. That said, 518 Auto did not fix the things they agreed to fix in the sales agreement in spite of picking the car up several days after it was purchased and leaving the car there for an entire week at a later date. They have not kept other commitments and have been nonresponsive to attempts to contact you and do not follow up to attempts to contact them and do not follow up when you drive to the lot and they make commitments to do so. On the surface the car had great mileage and appeared to be a good deal until 518 Auto started stacking on admin fees. During the drive home we identified several issues and immediately contacted 518 Auto for resolution. We noted the acceleration became sluggish with hesitation noted when the gear shifted above 35 miles per hour. The cruise control did not work, the navigation shut on and off intermittently, the windshield wiper fluid hoses were disconnected, the Bluetooth did not work, etc... These items were not observed during the test drive. Reflecting back the test drive was very controlled by the salesperson on busy streets immediately around the car lot where speeds above 35 -40 miles per hour could not be achieved. The car ran great at those speeds. The problem noted with the acceleration was noted on the drive home and once again immediately reported. They noted that oil was leaking into the plugs when they inspected and charged me over $600 to fix a car that was clearly broken when I bought it. The tire gage and missing Viser that they agreed to fix in the sales agreement were supposed to be fixed during that repair and no attempt to fix them occurred. They have not followed up with follow up visits and/or attempts to contact them to address them. The communication in general either with them or in between the sales department and the service department is very poor. I could go on and on about my experience but will not. Once again, I feel obligated to share my experience especially with service members and veterans as I believe this business is set up to take advantage of both, located a short distance from a very large naval station. Additionally, if there are other veterans or service members out there that would like to share their experiences and/or collaborate with me in approaching the leadership of local military installations and the credit unions that serve service members and veterans I would love to hear from you. It would be my goal to see that this business is made off limits to service members and make them a business that local credit unions will restrict loans to this business. I am fed up with giving 518 Auto the opportunity to do the right thing and will shift my efforts and energies into advocating against this business and helping other consumers in making good decisions to avoid this business. Respectfully Unhappy 518 Auto customer!!! read more

Me and my wife went just to look, they didn't let us test drive more than a mile, figured out that my wife liked the vehicle and then tried cutting me out of the conversation as much as they could. Well, got the vehicle. Three weeks into taking possession of the vehicle, the problems started popping up. Tried several times myself and the wife tried several times to contact the salesperson we worked with and basically we got ghosted by Wendy. NEVER USE THIS CAR LOT!! read more
