Fast and knowledgeable. They're very accommodating even when busy. Joe and Mike at the front desk are very helpful.

“Very reasonably priced, great service, and I have had MANY bad experiences in the past with other repair shops, but I will surely take my vehicle back to Advent Auto.”

Victor Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram - Cherokee Trailhawk... A big, but good, change from the Charger and so much better than the Cherokee Sport I had in 2000.

Very helpful and respectful! Helped us very quickly when we needed it and highly recommended!read more

On 2/3/26 I called to report that I had a check engine light on in my Certified Pre Owned 2019 Ram…read more1500 (from my e-torque system), my remote start was not working (likely due to the CEL), I needed my yearly NYS inspection, and it was my opinion that my truck was suffering from the very common exhaust manifold crack/leak that has plagued the new generation Ram trucks. They were able to get me in first thing in the morning on 2/5/26. I wanted them to check it out and address any concerns as it is still within the original factory powertrain warranty, and I also have a CPO warranty and an additional aftermarket warranty (surely one of these would cover any issues). The service advisor approached me in the waiting area to let me know that there were no stored codes or indications that there was an issue with my E-torque system. He also mentioned that I needed a new engine oil pan (to the tune of $2,000), Rotors and Pads on all 4, wiper blades (to pass NYS Inspection), and they did not hear/see any issues with my exhaust manifold (a culprit of the famous "Hemi Tick"). I had them install new wiper blades and inspect my vehicle. I asked my service advisor if he could see if the oil pan was under warranty, and was immediately told "they won't cover it." I paid my bill and went outside to my truck. When I got to my truck and started it, the ticking noise was very apparent so I went and got the service advisor to show him. He grabbed the shop manager to come and listen as well. Immediately the shop manager says, "he's right the manifold is cracked, we need to get the vehicle in to repair this." I went back inside and the service advisor stated that he would get the manifold on order. I contacted RAM Care to discuss whether or not the oil pan was covered under any warranty that I had on my truck and was informed that they would cover it and that I needed to give this dealership a reference number. This for me was strike one. I asked the advisor to advocate for me and was dismissed as it didn't seem like it was something he wanted to do, so I had to take it upon myself. I notified the service advisor that I had spoken to Ram Care and they gave me a reference number and told me that it would be covered under the "Corrosion Warranty". He was surprised as he's "never heard of such a thing". Once again I was assured that they would order the parts and get my truck fixed. At this point, I went to whom I believe to be the General Manager of the dealership to express my disappointment in the way that this was handled. He spoke to the two men in the service department and vowed to make this right. Chris was the service advisor that would help me from here on out. Two weeks later, and no communication from the dealership as to when I could expect the parts to be received in order for my truck to be repaired. Ram sent me multiple emails asking me to rate my latest service experience at Victor CDJR. I was honest in my survey. I did not give the service department good ratings. The dealership was clean, the waiting area and amenities were sufficient. I rated them well in this aspect. I noted that I would likely not recommend this dealership to others as this experience has certainly put a bad taste in my mouth. Now, here's where it gets interesting. On 2/20/26, Approximately 4 hours after I submitted my review to Ram (corporate), I get a phone call from the service advisor, Chris. "We've received the survey that you filled out and I've talked to my boss. At this point we are going to part ways with you. We are confident that we cannot make you happy. Whichever dealer you take your car to is welcome to request the parts for your truck from us." All because I filled out a survey honestly. No phone call from any management of this dealer. If this is the way that customers are treated for being honest, I will gladly spend my money elsewhere. Never in my life would I expect such a childish response from any dealership. My vehicle is still not repaired, and I'm on the hunt for a dealership that values their customers.

The service I received at this location was totally incredible. They charged me far less than I was…read moreoriginally quoted, they gave me a free loaner for the day, and they even informed me that an issue I was experiencing was not as big of a deal as I thought it was; saving me even more! They charged me less at the dealership than I would have paid at some smaller local shop. I'm definitely going to continue visiting this location for all my service needs in the future, and I really appreciate the friendly and helpful staff that I had the pleasure of doing business with.

Feels weird, 5-starring a car dealership. Bought a lot of cars over the years, and it's always…read morestressful and unpleasant. It's always high pressure and shady sales tactics. This was different. No "lemme talk to my manager..." BS. No starting out the conversation with "So what can you afford for a monthly payment?" or any other sleazy, underhand crap you expect when buying a car. Also wasn't left alone for extended periods of time drinking crappy coffee while they figure out how to screw you and try to convince you you're getting a deal. I know I'm salty about dealerships, but can you blame me? Everything was quick and painless. I got the price I went in expecting, npo wasting my time with nonsense. I even reserved my review for after the first service appointment. Bet even that was smooth as silk. Dropped the car off in the morning, they drove me to work, then drove me back after work to get my car. To be fair, I haven't had any problems with the car yet, so we'll see if they stay 5-star in that case, but here's hoping.

We recently found out that our old car needed to be fixed, AGAIN, and decided that it was starting…read moreto become a money sink. So we embarked on dreaded journey of used car shopping. I asked a few trusted people, and one of them said that they had always heard good things about Auction Direct. So it was the first place that we stopped! We met a young salesman named Cody, and he was really great. Patient (despite how much of his time we stole, and it was A LOT), friendly, and knowledgable. We went on somewhere between 5-10 test drives over the course of two visits. He came in on his day off to help us figure it out. We ended up approved for an auto loan, but we couldn't decide on a vehicle. He told us that they have a 5 day return policy (for any reason). He also worked with us to lower the payment a couple of interest points, which would have saved us $30 a month. There is an extra bumper to bumper warranty that sounded really great too, if you have the extra to put toward it! The lot was huge, and they had a really nice selection of vehicles. I loved how up front they were about each one - there were papers with info on every window that had vehicle details and price, free car fax reports and links to KBB values right on the website listings. I also loved that it wasn't a "traditional" feeling used car lot. More casual, with much better ambience. In the end we ended up leasing a new vehicle instead, but based on our experience here I would absolutely definitely recommend checking them out if you are in the market for a used vehicle!

Good- vehicle quite clean…read moreService manager was excellent she ordered broken switch and had it installed very quickly. Not so good: at least 4 items on check list were not done, but checked off as being okay Only shown how a couple features worked. Spent over an hour researching owners manual to figure out how some features worked.
