    Advertised price with no additional fees or markups
    Boris M.

    We were in the market for a used Tesla Model 3 and had been tracking prices for weeks on CarGurus.com. That's where we found a listing at Alsbou Motors, so we made our way to the dealership. Upon arrival, we were told the car might no longer be available since they sold two Teslas the previous day, which seemed reasonable. They showed us another Model 3, listed at $25,990. We did a test drive, and everything looked fine, but after getting out of the car, we were informed they were a "wholesale to public" dealership. Their Yelp page even claims that they offer "wholesale prices to the public." However, they slapped on a $5,000 markup (and $10,000 on a Model Y). We left. Later, still baffled by this, we inquired about the original car via text on CarGurus and were told it was still available! We asked for the out-the-door price and were told they don't do that over text, insisting everything was negotiable, and we should come to the dealership. When we asked directly about markups via text, they never replied. You don't expect perfection from used car dealerships, but Alsbou's practices were shocking. Advertising false prices is deceptive and likely violates California's Unfair Competition Law and False Advertising Law, which require that advertised prices reflect the actual selling price, with any additional fees clearly disclosed. We couldn't find these markups anywhere on their CarGurus listing. Additionally, telling us the car was available after saying it wasn't could fall under bait-and-switch tactics, which are illegal. This dealership not only deceives customers who travel to Riverside with false price expectations, but it also undercuts competitors who advertise real prices. If you're considering checking out Alsbou, be warned--even experienced car buyers might be caught off guard by what this place is willing to pull.

    I went in to this dealership yesterday, and it was the best experience I've ever had while purchasing a vehicle. Aston was very friendly and gave me confidence in not only purchasing my car but the dealership as a whole. He listened and addressed any concerns or questions that came up during the purchase. On top of that I had come into the dealership with my three kids, and Bill the owner fed them all. It felt like we were family there not just another sale and I really appreciated that. Bill was awesome, friendly and really went the extra mile making sure I was happy with everything! I will forever recommend this dealership. I left with my first ev so grateful I found your business! The car was sparkly clean and charged for me! Thank you!

    Thank you Aston for helping us with our car! It was a smooth process and they really work with you. Great customer service! We will come back here for our next car

    My experience at this dealership was so off-putting that I recommend you save yourself some time and never come here to buy a car. I visited on Memorial Day weekend, on Saturday, and parked my car at the neighboring Hertz dealership. I was greeted by Lorenzo and immediately asked if parking my car at the Hertz dealership was okay. He assured me they were in cahoots with Hertz and that it would be fine. While looking through their car inventory, I still felt uneasy about my car being parked there. I asked Lorenzo again if it was okay, and he confirmed it was. I did a test drive on a Tesla I was interested in, but Lorenzo quoted me a price that was $3,000 more than the listed price. I told him I would continue shopping around and might come back if that was the best offer I received. When I went back to my car in the Hertz parking lot, I found the gate locked. Lorenzo and his counterpart told me this happens all the time but did not offer any solution except to suggest calling the fire marshal. This was at 11 AM. I had to wait until 5:15 PM for the Hertz manager to come back and unlock the gate. This ruined my opportunity to car shop for the entire day. Even after this ordeal, the dealership still couldn't offer me a reasonable deal, insisting on keeping their markups. This is the worst car dealership you could ever go to. Please save yourself the hassle and your time. Sadly there probably will be no consequences for Lorenzo's and his counterparts as their owner/ general manager does not care what goes on as he had zero interest in helping solve what happened. So please please please do not waste your time going there. What ever deal you see online will be marked up and falsely advertised anyways.

I went in with bad credit hoping that this dealership would finance me a p71 crown victoria. I didn't have high hopes because of my credit situation but, I still gave it a shit anyways. I didn't beat around the bush and neither did they. It took about 3 days in order to try to get a deal worked out for me and they went to every avenue and every corner to try to make this happen for me which let's be honest, a lot of places would have given up on me a long time ago. I get it, an old cop car through most banks would not qualify for financing BUT, it's the car that I wanted. Antonio brought me in sat me and my wife down and laid it all out on the table with nothing to hide and I not only appreciate that but, I respect that as well. That has to be the absolute fastest I've EVER gotten a car from any dealership ever! There were no hidden fees, no bs and no drama. I am beyond Appreciative for Antonio taking the time explain everything to me and my wife and for having the patience to deal with us. If you want not only a beautiful looking p71 BUT, an extremely dependable one and well that hasn't been beat to hell, this is definitely the place to go. I stand on that!

    Smooth, No-Pressure Experience at CarMax Bakersfield…read more After months of visiting multiple dealerships in search of a very specific 2019 BMW 540i with the M Sport Package to replace my 21-year-old 525i, I found the right car at CarMax. From shipping the vehicle from Riverside to Bakersfield to driving off the lot, everything was straightforward and well organized. The Bakersfield team was consistently friendly and professional, and there was never any pressure--even when we declined the MaxCare extended warranty. The paperwork was handled quickly, and the entire pickup took less than two hours. Our sales associate, Keesh, was knowledgeable, attentive, and easy to work with, which made the experience even smoother. If you're looking for a transparent, low-stress way to purchase a quality used vehicle, I highly recommend CarMax Bakersfield.

My experience…read morewith this location has been the most unprofessional, frustrating, and careless service I've ever dealt with in the automotive industry. I picked up my transfer vehicle and immediately noticed cosmetic imperfections. CarMax chose to treat them under warranty, but once I got home, I found pinholes in the paint, a broken left taillight, and the start/stop service light on. I sent photos, and they scheduled me for the following week, saying they needed to "verify" the damage because they didn't trust their own service department. After inspecting the vehicle, they told me the taillight was on backorder, even though another dealer had it in stock. They insisted they had to use their local vendor. I dropped the car off the following Thursday. By Tuesday, they called saying the part was defective and needed to be reordered. They also said they couldn't handle the cosmetic work and would have to sublet it out. When I picked up the vehicle, the service advisor, Steven, gave me an excuse--but I immediately noticed they had installed a broken, used taillight. They scheduled me again. When I returned, they said the sublet shop had taken care of everything. That was not true. Upon pickup, I found new scratches and a dent. Steven said he would notify a manager. I called back and spoke with Bryan, who claimed he had multiple vendors who could fix the scratches and PDR the dent. I told him the scratches were too deep, but he insisted someone could handle it. I trusted him. The next day, I picked up the car--nothing was fixed, more damage was added from poor workmanship, and now my check engine light was on. I contacted corporate. Ariel promised a call the next day. No one called. I escalated to her manager, Dani. I told them I wanted the vehicle repaired at a certified shop because CarMax clearly didn't know what they were doing. They kept insisting I bring it back to the same location that kept damaging it. I called again and spoke with another manager, Rick, who said he could take me in--but not for nine days--even though I had already been there three times. He also admitted Steven and Bryan only told him about the warranty issue, not the damage their shop caused. Corporate was no help. I eventually reached the LGM, Tony. I explained the situation, the poor communication, and the fraudulent behavior. He said he would speak with Rick. They called me back and asked me to bring the vehicle in so they could "see the damage"--a full month after I purchased it. When I arrived, there was a man standing with his arms crossed like loss prevention. It turned out to be Bryan, the same manager who ignored my calls for five days. During the walk‑around, Rick immediately took an arrogant tone and told me, "It's a used vehicle, it will have scratches." I explained the damage occurred while the vehicle was in their possession. He claimed they had signs saying they weren't responsible for damage--signs meant for customers browsing the lot, not for service vehicles. He then asked how I knew the damage happened there. I asked why they attempted to fix it if they didn't cause it. He said it was "a courtesy." Their "courtesy" caused even more damage. When I tried speaking to Tony, he stayed silent while Rick dominated the conversation. Bryan then inserted himself, accusing me of being aggressive. When I told him he needed to be demoted, he became hostile, breathing heavily, and had to be physically held back by the other managers while threatening me. In the end, they told me I could either drop the vehicle off again for the check engine light or pay my deductible and go elsewhere. It has now been a month, and no one has called me back regarding the damage they caused, despite promising they would. CarMax Riverside has shown zero accountability, poor workmanship, dishonest communication, and unprofessional behavior from multiple managers. Rick needs training or demotion, Tony needs to retire, and Bryan should not be in a management position at all. Bunch of clowns.

It was going to be an extended repair so the vehicle had to be had for a good price. We found Car EZ motors through car gurus search. A pristine Mazda 3 popped up with good mileage and an even better price. We showed up unannounced wanting to take a look at the vehicle. The pictures did it no justice. When we saw the vehicle in person we were in awe because of how much better it looked compared to the pictures taken. Mind you this was the 5th dealership we had been to that day. All other vehicles in this price range were rolling garbage. My role was to make sure the vehicle was sound and had no mechanical issues. I brought with me my extensive knowledge in vehicles along with my personal scantool that I always use in every vehicle I own. After the walk around (the 5th of the day) I checked the oil, and pulled out my scan tool to check the codes. Eureka! No codes. .... Great price, looked good, no codes.. there has ti be a catch right? No catch what so ever. Joe was the nicest sales person I ever had to deal with. He made sure he checked all the boxes with customer service. He was kind, caring, polite and I felt went above in his assistance towards us fulfilling all of our needs. It had to be less than 30 minutes from when we arrived... checked the vehicle... test drive the vehicle... filled out the paperwork and drove off of the lot. It was the easiest process purchasing a vehicle in my short 38 years of life. Thank you Joe for your assistance. If I ever need to purchase a car in the future I will not hesitate to come to you.

No warranty, no compensation, no offer to incur any expenses to bring the car to his shop to evaluate. He did gesture a break on labor for repairs. After discovering that the motor had been damaged and repaired and being told that the original motor was intact I decided to forgo any further dealings with Car EZ... I can't help but to feel cheated and taken advantage of. I am left with a $3500 debt to replace the motor with no financial reimbursement from Car EZ Motor. Stay clear, or get burned.
