My boyfriend and I drove down to Car Time to look at a truck we found on the internet. Jason and…read moreJustin were so incredibly helpful and kind. Boyfriend ended up purchasing the truck and it couldn't have gone smoother! They took the time to tell us the history of the vehicle and were very open about repairs that had been done. They also filled the tank for us before we left! I can't recommend them enough!

In July, I purchased a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 from Car Time of Owatonna. The salesman I dealt with was…read moreJustin. He said he had no access to the service history of the vehicle, but he did show me a ticket for a repair they supposedly made. Within two weeks of buying the truck, these are the problems that arose: -Inexplicably shifted into "Recreational Tow Mode." -Discovered the parking brake didn't work. -"Service 4 Wheel Drive" light began turning on. -Discovered all 4 front ball joints were in terrible condition. -Found out the CD player doesn't work. -Discovered the CV axle and intermediate axle were damaged. -Found out there are 2 fault codes in the computer, C1404 and C1002. C1404 is for the transfer case position sensor, which might explain the truck slipping into "Recreational Tow Mode." C1002 is for the brake switch sensor. -I was quoted over $2,000 for repairs at a local garage. I should also mention that upon calling Justin about the first issue, the truck slipping into "Recreation Tow Mode", he was less than useful. First, when I told him I was able to get it back into 2 wheel drive, he said something to the effect of "cool, so it's all good now." Not the response one looks for from someone who claims to be an honest dealer that makes sure their customers are taken care of. A truck should never inexplicably shift gears, and hearing that one he sold me did, should have been cause for concern on Justin's part. In this same phone call Justin also claimed to have no knowledge of Minnesota's 30-day used car warranty law, mentioned here https://www.ag.state.mn.us/Consumer/Handbooks/MNCarLaws/CH2.asp. This law doesn't apply in my case, but I mentioned it just to hear what Justin would say. I was displeased that he claimed to have never heard of it, despite the fact he has been a used car dealer for quite some time now. Bottom line, I bought the truck "As Is," and I know this. However, I am still enough of a sap to think those who claim such high levels of integrity would seek to ensure I know about potentially dangerous problems with the truck they are selling me. After all, if a ball joint goes out while I am cruising down the highway, it is the lives of my wife, four children, and myself at stake. Is Car Time of Owatonna any worse than other used car dealers? I don't know. Just keep in mind that they are used car dealers and the stereotype exists for a reason. Don't expect integrity and do not take them at their word. I won't be using Car Time of Owatonna again.

Instead of comping them a new tire my 70 year old grandpa had to take it in to get all new tires and realign it because of the small tire. We also discovered that the 3rd row seat middle seatbelt (hanging above the seat) is shoved into the ceiling so you can't even pull the seatbelt out. They didn't go over all of the tech pieces with them and they were so confused. My grandmother has attempted to call Nathan many times and he STILL has not answered her back. They completely took advantage of the elderly. It may look like a good deal, but you may pay for it in the end. At least watch for this one sales person, he was slimy. SO DOUBLE CHECK EVERYTHING!!!
