Great experience at Platinum Motors…read more I bought a pre-owned Infiniti here and worked with KC who was straightforward, no games, just honest and easy to deal with. The whole process was smooth and stress-free... At the same time, Nick and his crew really came through for me. I had a tricky issue with my late-model German car that the dealer quoted a crazy price for. Nick's team diagnosed it quickly and got it fixed for much less than what the dealer wanted. Overall, both KC and Nick made the experience great. Honest sales, skilled mechanics, and fair pricing. Definitely recommend Platinum Motors if you're looking for a car or need service done right. Well done.

Buyinng from them might be a new car for the consumer, but their inventory is above average on both price value and the vehicle condition. I would describe thier assortment of inventory clearly above middle pricepoints to the top price autos to be found for previously owned vehicles. Their campus is a former Chevrolet dealer. They have a great service department, a body shop and a detail area. You can buy a great used vehicle and they will service it for you. When you walk in say hello to Pedro!

I went to look at a 2011 Toyota Tundra Limited that was listed for about $20,000. During the test…read moredrive, once I reached highway speeds (around 50 mph), the truck began shaking badly. When I brought this up, the salesman said he didn't know why it was happening and then checked his phone and told me the vehicle had not been inspected yet because they "just got it." After returning to the lot, I opened the hood to look things over, and when I closed it, the Toyota emblem fell off. I then looked underneath the truck and found a significant oil leak. Again, I was told the issues would be fixed and that the vehicle had not yet been inspected. I told them I would consider purchasing the truck for **$16,000 only after all of the issues were properly repaired and the vehicle fully inspected**. I also showed them comparable vehicles -- same year with lower miles and even newer models (including a 2016) with fewer miles selling for about **$2,000 less**. Despite this, they refused to negotiate and continued to insist on $20,000, which is well over market value given the mileage and condition. At one point, I was asked why I hadn't purchased the other comparable vehicles I showed them. I explained that I was still in the process of looking and comparing options. I was then told that maybe I should buy those vehicles instead because they were not going to budge on the price. The overall attitude during this exchange felt dismissive rather than professional, especially given the condition of the vehicle. I also noticed the vehicle history shows a prior **minor accident**, which by itself wouldn't necessarily be a deal-breaker, but combined with the vibration, oil leak, and lack of inspection, it raised additional concerns. I have family members who work as mechanics and salespeople at major dealerships like Toyota and Ford, and I also have some experience myself, so I understand how vehicles should be inspected, road-tested, and priced before being offered for sale. Unfortunately, my experience here was consistent with concerns I've seen mentioned by other reviewers -- vehicles priced high, little flexibility on price, and cars not fully ready despite premium asking prices. Buyers should be very cautious and make sure any vehicle here is fully inspected, repaired, and properly road-tested before purchasing.

FIVE STARS IS NOT ENOUGH…read more We had a car that needed repairs that exceeded its value, so we started shopping online for a replacement. We came across a plug-in hybrid that felt perfect for our family...especially with our kids being year-round student athletes, even through the summer. I called Zac Auto Dealers and spoke with Elham, who confirmed the vehicle was still available. We headed over later that morning, and from the moment we arrived, everything just felt right. He came out to greet us. Saw the car right out front and it was in amazing condition, After a quick test drive, Elham had all the paperwork prepared quickly and efficiently. No hassle whatsoever. We decided to finance the vehicle. Zac Auto partners with Travis Credit Union in Concord. Took a short drive there, where we worked with a gentleman named Herman. He mentioned he regularly helps Zac's customers, and it showed. He made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Travis Credit Union was so welcoming and professional that we even opened a savings account with them. We picked up the car the next evening at Zac's. We were told it had been serviced and checked at their partner shop, Ace Auto Care in Lafayette. The car was in pristine condition. It looked, smelled, and drove like new. About three and a half weeks later, I noticed white smoke coming from a small tube underneath the car. Long story short, it turned out to be related to the battery/heating system. The car still drove perfectly, but not knowing who to call, I reached out to Zac Auto for guidance. A gentleman, Aziz, answered and without hesitation reassured me: "Don't worry...we'll take care of it." I explained what was going on, and he immediately directed me to bring the car to their partner shop, Ace Auto Care. At Ace Auto Care, I received the exact same level of service: kind, friendly, professional, honest, and incredibly respectful. Felt like I was greeted by cousins. By the very next day, my car was ready, repaired with brand-new parts...courtesy of Aziz and Zac Auto. Honestly, between Elham, Aziz, Herman, and the entire team at Ace Auto Care, it truly felt like we hit a grand slam. Thank you, Zac Auto Dealers. You are all a true example of how a business should be conducted along with how people should be treated. You didn't just take care of a transaction and a pricey repair...you took care of our family, and that means everything. Thank you.

About a Subaru outback and it has ran great. My second purchase was a toyota sequoia. Zac Auto has gone above and beyond once again with their customer service. They are honest and upfront, and they make it clear that they want the vehicle to be a good vehicle for you when you purchase it. They stand by their cars and if there's any issues, they take care of it. It's rare these days to find a family dealership with this integrity and care for their customers. I would send anyone in my family there without hesitation and have recommended them to several people. Anytime I need a new vehicle I will go straight to Zac Auto. If they don't have what you want, they'll find it for you. I can't thank them enough and we'll be back again. I'm sure.!

The reason I gave them 5 stars is because there's no 6-star option…read more I recently purchased a 2009 Corolla from Nick at Concord Auto 1, and it turned out to be the perfect used sedan for my family. I usually buy new cars, but after seeing their flawless reviews, I decided to give a used car a try this time. The purchasing process was smooth and straightforward (we paid in cash, so we skipped the finance part). 1. Proactive follow-up on maintenance concerns A couple of weeks after purchase, I brought the car to Toyota Concord for routine maintenance. The mechanic mentioned a possible "seepage" that might indicate an oil leak, and they charged a couple hundred dollars to add dye to the oil for tracking. I told Nick about it, and he immediately told me to bring the car in for a thorough inspection by his mechanic. It turned out not to be an active leak--just an oil stain--but Nick still insisted I return in a week so he could be absolutely sure everything was fine. 2. Above-and-beyond roadside help A few days later, while moving from Concord to Castro Valley, my power steering suddenly failed on the highway. AAA told me the wait for a tow would be over two hours due to high demand. When I told Nick, he immediately recognized the likely culprit--the alternator--and came out with his crew. They swapped my battery on the spot, got the car safely to the shop, replaced the alternator quickly, and had me back on the road in no time. For a 16-year-old car, I honestly didn't expect perfection, and most used cars are sold "as-is." But Nick's willingness to stand behind the sale and personally make sure everything was right truly impressed me. This is why Concord Auto 1 has a perfect review record. Nick doesn't just sell cars--he sells promises and peace of mind, which is exactly what matters most when buying a used car. I would recommend Nick and Concord Auto 1 to anyone looking for a quality used vehicle.

I had a great experience with Martinez Truck and Auto. I would gladly refer people to them and buy another vehicle from them.

I'd been putting it off because finding the right shop (quality service, fair prices, honest recommendations, and not condescending) is so daunting. I enlisted my Dad who owns a dealership in LA to help me find the right Bay Area auto shop. He took the task very seriously and talked to 5+ shops. When he spoke with Martinez Auto Tech, he could instantly tell they were knowledgeable and they gave feedback on what was and wan't necessary for 60,000 mile service. Their prices beat out other local shops as well. When I dropped the car off they were able to take care of everything in one day (spark plugs, oil change, CVT drain and fill, brake flush, rear and front trans axel fluid) for under $1,000. To top it off they were so kind and happy to answer questions along the way. I never felt uncomfortable, unlikely majority of shops I've been to solo as a woman. 5 days later, our VW Golf died and wouldn't restart. I had it towed to their shop while they were closed over the weekend. I called them Monday morning to see if they could figure out what was going on. They were so accommodating and happy to squeeze me in without an appointment. They figured out it was an issue with the alternator and had the car back and running before the day was over. They didn't even charge me for charging up the car since I had just done my Subaru service. I really appreciate a small, local business that values their customers. This was such an act of kindness that I won't forget. I'll never service my cars elsewhere as long as I live in this area and will always recommend them to anyone - especially if you aren't a car expert and need honest guidance and recommendations. Thank you so much Martinez Auto Tech!
