My new to me Silverado
Raymond C.

Have spent weeks looking for a new to me truck After test driving several trucks and wasting my time and energy I decided to turn to some of the smaller local dealerships I happened to be driving by cal west motors and saw a few trucks that caught my eye I decided to stop in and look at a few And found a Silverado That fits my needs and was in my price budget test drove it with Brian and then sat down to go over the price It was hassle and haggle free I got a great deal and even decided to purchase the 2 year 26,500 mile extended warranty through GM So I don't have to worry about anything going wrong with the truck All in All I recommend this dealership Family owned and operated Thanks again cal west motors For a easy fast purchase

We went car shopping today and had a good experience here. The staff was nice and they had a good selection (for us). We did not buy anything today but we will highly consider returning to Cal West.

Horrible company. They deleted my review because they said I owe them a apology? For what I wrote. I bought a new 2017 Honda Civic from them , they had a sign in the window that said "AC/Heater" they scammed me completely, the AC is broken and will cost a lot of money to fix. Then when I called to confront them about it Ryan said I need to owe him a apology for my review & that I broke the AC? How can I do that within a month. Worst place ever I have proof also .

My transmission went out, two days later I was happily on my way with my new Ford Edge! Matt was very helpful as this was my first time buying a car! He made sure to ask multiple times if I had any questions. He was very helpful throughout the whole process and even helped me make sure I was setting up insurance right for my new car before I left the lot! Matt worked hard to get the best price and payment plan that would work for me. This could have been a very stressful event for me but Matt made sure everything went extremely smoothly. Highly highly recommend!!!!

Do not go here! Idk if it's the personality or just straight bad customer service. I walked in there with 4,000 dollars with ok credit But I had repo from loosing my job a while back. I litterally had to get up and walk out. I was disgusted with his word choice....with his make America fake again hat... they could have easily sold me a car within my price range especially on a lot with a bunch of trash... but Toyota approved me for a 2019 Nissan. Thanks for the bad experience you litterally lost a sale & on top of it ruined my day. I drove from San Carlos ca to that lot specifically and there's a 1,000 lots who would use my 4,000$ during this crisis.

See all

All good. Spoke with owner and fixed issues. They let me know that financing is not thru them and is from another source.

Within the week I had to take the car in to the shop for rattling when the AC was on. Turns out something was installed backwards. Within the second week the Apple Car Play started failing. I took it to the dealership, one of the gentleman came out and did a quick troubleshooting (deleted devices and added back). Fast forward to March 2026, Car play has FAILED. I take the vehicle for an oil change and find that the engine is failing, including an engine oil leak, coolant system failing. While trying to establish the validity of the warranty and find a good shop for the repairs the car has shut off in traffic twice, continues to run hot and the breaks are going out already. I have spent $600 on a rental car. I have reached out to San Leandro several times and spoke with Boris. The last of which he offered a discount on the rental which still totaled $600 for how long I will need the rental. I asked explicitly to speak with a Regional Manager about surrendering the vehicle and submitted an online complaint more than three weeks ago and no one is responding. I have also filed a complaint with BBB. And by the list of other complaints I'm not the first person sold a vehicle that they claim has been through a rigorous "certification" and inspection and the ENGINE is failing months later.

My kids and I have been discussing replacing our minivan with a smaller car for years, but I loved…read moremy minivan (still do) and couldn't imagine parting with it. Over the past few months, my son and I searched for affordable used cars, test-drove cars, shopped around for a good trade-in price for the minivan, and even posted the minivan on Marketplace. Yesterday, as I drove off the High Street bridge and returned home to Alameda, instead of turning left, I drove straight to Diamond Auto's lot. I recognized my son's dream car by the enormous spoiler on the back. I took it for a test drive. I sat with Alex to discuss the price. Today, my son and I test drove the car. We sat with Alex to discuss the price and the warranty (3-months, which isn't much, but it's 3-months longer than any other warranty we were offered). We came to an agreement. I gave Alex the keys to my beloved minivan (which is now for sale, by the way), a lump sum on my credit card, and drove away in a sporty sedan. It wasn't just that we found the right car at the right price today. We found the right salesperson. Alex is supporting the local community as well as his own family. He negotiates directly and clearly. He speaks respectfully to middle-aged women and teenage kids. No gimmicks. No pressure. No confusing equations. Tell him what you need, and he'll tell you what he needs. If it works, it works. If it doesn't, no pressure. I enjoyed doing business with him.

I had heard great things about Diamond Auto and about Alex, so when our family car finally gave up…read morethe ghost, my wife and I decided to check out their inventory. Their website made it easy to narrow our choices down to three cars before we even arrived, which helped take a lot of stress out of the process. When we got to the lot, the atmosphere immediately felt comfortable. Someone greeted us, let us know he was available if we had questions, and then gave us time to look around on our own. The lot was packed with cars, but the team cheerfully moved vehicles around so we could compare our options. They showed us practical features you don't always see on a spec sheet, like trunk space, rear AC vent locations, and USB ports, which really helped us eliminate some options. We test drove two cars, reviewed their deals, and met with Alex, who gave us his card. When we mentioned we wanted to look at other options they were completely understanding and didn't pressure us or ask for our contact information. We stopped by the nearby Toyota dealership since our old car was a Toyota, but the prices there were noticeably higher, even for used models. Two days later, we returned to Diamond Auto to try one more car. Alex even let us take it home to make sure it could handle our daughters' softball gear and our camping equipment. That extra step made a big difference. Once we decided it was the right fit, the financing process was quick and easy. We grabbed bagels next door while the paperwork was prepared, and less than an hour later we were driving home in our new car. It's been a month since we made our purchase and the car has been running great! We event took a road trip from Alameda to Portland and back. We are still thrilled with our purchase and will definitely return to Diamond Auto in the future!

I asked him if there was anything that he was aware of that was not revealed in the CarFax or online description and photos. He assured me that everything was in excellent condition. Since I don't live particularly close, I hired a mechanic to go to the dealer and perform a pre-purchase inspection. I asked again if there is anything I should know before I spend the money, and he said "nothing, it's in great shape - a really clean car that needs nothing". The PPI revealed that the car was hit from the rear and it was obvious. The dealer told my mechanic they had tried to fix it themselves (not very well). So I spent $200 for a mechanic that I didn't need to if this guy was the least bit truthful. Perhaps I shouldn't expect these guys to be honest but gosh. I guess I'll just try and purchase from private parties going forward. This guy flat out lied to my face, don't trust a word he says and definitely get the car fully tested before purchasing. I know I'm stating the obvious, but there you have it!
