    Example of normal sticker placement

    BUYER BEWARE As a follow-up to my already terrible experience with Auto Lenders, I can confidently say this was the worst service I have ever received from any business. After knowingly selling me a lemon--a vehicle that was supposedly "certified safe"--the car completely broke down after just 25 miles. It was totaled and required a new engine. For two weeks, I was left without a vehicle while dealing with corporate. They eventually told me I could swap for another car, but when I went to look at a similar vehicle (same year, same model, fewer miles, and only slightly more expensive), things somehow got even worse. Not only did they barely offer me any discount after what they put me through, but I couldn't even bring myself to test-drive the car because of a glaring issue. Here's the kicker: the dealership's sticker, which is usually placed in the bottom left corner of their vehicles, was instead deliberately placed in the top left corner. Why? To cover up paint and body damage. This was an intentional act to deceive potential buyers. How can you trust a business like this? You simply can't. They actively try to hide damage, clear engine codes, and sell you dangerous vehicles under the guise of being "certified." It took over a month--from October 17th to November 19th--just to get reimbursed for my down payment after returning the vehicle. This experience was not just frustrating; it was outrageous. Now that the deal is undone, I can assure you that I will not let this happen to other consumers. I will be taking my story to the news, the Better Business Bureau, and the Office of the Attorney General's Bureau of Consumer Protection to expose the unethical and unsafe practices of Auto Lenders. Avoid this business at all costs. They are not trustworthy, and their practices are downright dangerous. Protect yourself and your wallet. FIRST REVIEW I recently purchased a 2021 Ram 1500 from Auto Lenders in Exton, and while the initial experience with the salesman, Mike, was smooth and efficient, everything fell apart just 18 hours later. The next morning, with only 25 miles on the truck, the check engine light came on, indicating an engine problem. When I returned to the dealership, I spoke with the service tech, who casually admitted, "That was the truck that needed to go back to the dealership." He went on to explain that they had cleared the code and hoped the issue would "resolve itself"--completely unacceptable! Why any reputable dealership would knowingly sell a vehicle with an engine issue is beyond me. The manager, John Schwartz, was no help either. He essentially put the problem back in my hands, stating that the dealership's departments don't communicate with each other, so the salesman wouldn't have known about the issue. This kind of disorganization is shocking, and it makes me wonder how many other vehicles they've sold with problems like this. Even worse, John told me I needed to make an appointment at a Ram dealership to resolve the issue, offering no assistance, no courtesy vehicle, and no loaner car. I will never do business with Auto Lenders Exton again and strongly advise others to avoid them as well. This level of negligence and lack of accountability is disgraceful.

    Waiting area.

While they did not…read morehave that car on their lot, they had the identical car brought to the Exton dealership that day. I worked with Dean and Gabriel. I went in the next day for the car, it was a seamless process. Gabriel was probably the best salesperson I have ever dealt with when purchasing a car. I highly recommend him, and the entire team at Exton Nissan.

    Be warned. I went in to look at an SUV listed at 45k. Everything was going well, did the test drive…read moreand was working with a younger guy named Gabriel. Everything seemed fine. Test drive went well and I was ready to make an offer. He asked me upfront if I was wanting to pay outright or finance. I was still on the fence about different options, so I let him know that and said we should figure out first the numbers, how much we can take off, taxes and fees, etc. He went to his "next person above him" named Vinny and "talked" numbers. Vinny says they can't go lower than taking off $500, and they couldn't even afford to throw in all-weather mats on the deal. After a lot of talking and trying different ways to negotiate to make all parties happy, we got to a point where we finally agreed on the price with only taking $500 off because they literally would not budge. Vinny came and sat down and discussed options and asked again how we planned on paying (financing/cash) and I said I was still undecided but I wanted to make sure I had my ducks in a row before we made a decision. He even told us we did not have to finance with Nissan if we were more comfortable with our own credit union or finance options. We let Gabriel know we were ready to proceed. My husband went outside to call our insurance company and I sat there getting ready to wire money, when Gabriel came back and said Vinny said "Jeff the manager" took the $500 dollars off back off the table since we decided to pay upfront. I went outside and discussed with my husband, obviously very frustrated. My husband said we would proceed but to see why they would strip $500 back from a Veteran for literally no reason. So I went back in to ask Gabriel if I could talk to Vinny or "Jeff" who is nowhere to be found. He kept just saying "yeah I can get him but he won't change his mind, etc etc". I had to ask around 5 times to discuss with them before he finally left to get Vinny. Mind you, my husband is on the phone with auto insurance trying to add the SUV to the policy. Vinny comes over very rudely and basically tells me the $500 is off the table and that he would have never offered it if he knew we wanted to pay upfront (he knew it was an option and even printed out multiple offers- one stating cash). Then when I told him we discussed it multiple times he tried to gaslight me into saying he never knew we might pay upfront and so I brought up the fact that he stated we could finance through our own companies of choice, so it should make a difference how we pay. He said in all his 20+ years he had never offered that to a client. All the time this is going on, I'm asking Gabriel "didn't he say this, didn't he say that" and he was cowering and just slowing shaking his head yes like he agreed but wouldn't be my life line. Vinny eventually got so irate about being called on his lies that he told me "we actually aren't going to sell this to you upfront- not even full price, you're only allowed to finance. That's the rules. No cash offers can be accepted. I will not be selling this to you. Goodbye". And walked away. Gabriel just sat there. I even asked him if that's true about buying outright not be allowed and he said he's sold cars outright many, many times so he didn't know what to say. I had to have my son go get his dad to let him know we didn't need insurance. All this to say, Vinny never approached me in front of my husband. Only ever came over while my husband was doing a test drive and I sat with my kids, and only when he waited for my husband to go out to call insurance and he pulled his bull crap. The only time he spoke to my husband was briefly to discuss options and basically ran away to talk to "Jeff". This is not an honest transaction. I will not speak about the company as a whole as I haven't dealt with them before, but let this be your information upfront before dealing with these people and things specifically.

    Take your VW to a different service center!…read more I had an awful experience here from start to finish. To start I was charged an outrageous price for a part that should have cost about half as much, and the labor rate was incredibly expensive. To make matters worse, the service department refused to contact my warranty company and made me handle everything myself. After I paid my bill and got my car back, they called me a week later and told me that the reimbursement check from my warranty company had to be turned over to them. When I called my warranty provider to verify this, they informed me I was being double charged. The worst part is that after all of this, my vehicle is still experiencing the exact same problem I brought it in for. I paid a significant amount of money, dealt with unnecessary stress, and the issue wasn't even fixed. I feel completely ripped off by this repair experience. If you value your time and money, I strongly recommend taking your Volkswagen to a different service center.
