Brent, scammer mechanic who broke my hood, this is the quote they're trying to give my wife.
Sean M.

Brent is a scammer and needs to be fired. The underlined part costs 191.90 everything else is shit they want us to pay for. So basically they break a 190$ part and come up with a 1688.00$ bill. See you Tuesday Brent

I blocked their number, after I told the service department I no longer have the vehicle. (5 months now) and they keep calling.

Dent on trunk door.
Stephen N.

About a month ago I bought a KIA EV6 from this exact dealership (I paid in full). First off the guy who was my point of sales was something else. I had asked him for pictures and videos of the car and this guy sends me videos of a completely different car (different color) just not even the car I'm inquiring about. I drive out there and take a look at the car and it's not the one he sent me videos of he later realizes that. But the car I was interested in had dents in the car. One in the passenger side door and 1 on the trunk (this one is in two spots but you can see it was probably from the same exact accident) no big deal I asked for only $700-800 off their asking price if I could have those things fixed. Tell me why after I buy the car I have to keep contacting them on when I can drop my car off to remove the dents as if they were completely uninterested in filling their agreed upon side of the bargain. I was calling and calling and kept being told I'd get a call back. Keep this in mind because it will come into context later. Fast forward I finally get to drop off my car they barely did a good job removing the dent you can still see it reflect. But the dent on the bottom by the license plate hasn't been removed. I left as it was taking forever to get my car or any help and I was only on my lunch break at work. And I told my sales guy that hey there's still a dent there and he said he would speak to his manager about it. FASTFORWARD THE SALES GUY never calls me back and leaves me on delivered so once I get back from my work trip (2weeks) I give the dealership a call and they say they cant do anything because I didn't speak to someone right away about it.... I quite literally spoke to the sales rep about it while I was taking the car back. (The only reason why I took my car back is because that same day I was also leaving for a work trip and did not want to keep their loaner which would inconvenience them (not me) so I rushed to pick my car up). I told them about the dent and the car immediately and have time stamps of our conversation and how the sales rep would get back to me after speaking with his manager. (I never get a call back) But then after waiting 2 weeks I call them and to my surprise they notify me that the sales rep is on leave for medical reasons and how would I know that? That's right I wouldn't so how is it my fault this guy never got back to me and why is it such a big deal that 2 weeks later I take it in my own hands to reach out to them once again for something they are supposed to contact me about. Mind you I only owned the car for a month and 1 week give or take. Like I have to bug these people for such minor things and they're just not trying to help. The employee doing the car loaners is nice don't get me wrong but this whole place is terrible. Told me I would have to pay them to fix the other dent that I assumed was apart of the same trunk dent. But I guess not you live and you learn. Also these cheap people didn't even give me 2 keys. I got like a backup key for my car after I signed the papers. That's my fault for not asking prior but dang this place sucks. Just looking to make a buck off you they aren't interested in your problems or anything they agree to.

2024 Mustang Ecoboost Premium Convertible

I can't say enough great things about this Capitol VW location and working with Juho. He really made the whole process so easy of making my dream car my reality! He was very professional, friendly and went above and beyond to make sure to answer any and all questions about the vehicle. He even had a bow on the car for me and had it pulled up in front for when I arrived. I came all the way from Walnut Creek (an hour away) just to look at this vehicle due to the great price and lower miles than some others I had seen closer to me. I have always wanted this car since I was a little girl, so when I started shopping for a newer car I thought, why not see if I can make my dream a reality finally. You only live once, right? This is my second time purchasing a vehicle from a DGDG dealership and the peace of mind this gives me is priceless. It's such a clean car with no dents, clean interior, it looks brand new practically. The whole process of trading in my Mazda 3 S premium and the fair pricing they gave me for it made the decision so much easier. Their finance team worked their magic to me get a great rate and my monthly payments super low. I got a great price on my used 2024 Mustang Ecoboost Premium Convertible and couldn't be happier with my purchase! I highly recommend purchasing from this dealership and working with Juho.

A great example of why you must know what services are needed for your car.  Most of these service items are unnecessary--read the manual!
Ivan J.

I had great experiences with this dealer for service in the past, but not this time. I booked an appointment for this dealer to get 2 recalls (the door handle replacement and software update) completed on my 2021 VW ID.4 Pro. Despite the appointment, the dealer mentioned that the parts won't be available until at least April. Then, since I also needed to get the 60,000 service reminder warning reset, the service advisor, Patty Argetsinger, mentioned, "you got to do this 'minimum' service or we can't reset the service reminder warning." To that I just said, "No, I simply got to leave." It's ludicrous--I already did the brake fluid replacement (per the manual) 7 months ago. Replaced the cabin filter myself. None of the other items were recommended or needed in the manual, and the dealer didn't even look at the car yet. So be careful--and be sure to follow with what is required in the owner's manual!

Kenneth D.

I walked in without an appointment on Saturday after seeing a deal online for the ID.4. In under 5 minutes, a sales rep (Juho) saw me and had me sitting in a vehicle for a test drive. Juho showed me some basic features and I was on my way test driving the car. When I came back, he suggested that I take it the 4 miles home so that my wife could look at it as well. Juho listened to what I wanted the car for (mostly as a commute car and weekend family car). He understood that I wanted and only needed the standard trim. It was refreshing that he didn't upsell me on a more expensive trim. Then we started talking price. He gave me the "out the door" estimate for cash, finance, and 2x lease options. I was prepared to fight for the deal that I saw online; however, I was presently surprised that the costs presented beat the online deal. I was sold. I didn't have all the funding ready and he was ok when I said I had to come in on Sunday. I asked about trading in my old car. Juho was quick with an estimate and didn't fight it when I told them the Carvana price. He was honest and let me know that I should probably take the Carvana option. We texted a few times to setup a time and color option (I was good with the car I test drove). When I came in on Sunday, the car was detailed and charged. I watched football while all the initial paperwork was being done. I was out of the dealership driving my new car within 90 minutes. I've been beaming at work today telling my coworkers of the price I got and the easy experience.

We were communicating while he was out of town and I would have gladly bought a car from him. Instead I bought a car from somebody who will say is just basically I got screwed. And Chris is going out of his way to help me even though we have never done business. That is such a rare quality that I can only hope that anybody with enough sense would see this and buy a car from him. He has been overwhelmingly supportive, offered his help as best he can wherever he can, and even stayed in touch just talking back and forth about how badly things have turned on for me with the purchase of the car I made from somebody on Craigslist who is also a wholesaler kind of guy. Anyway five stars aren't enough. I'm sure whatever products he have or quality products. But beyond that the integrity, the kindness, the actual caring far beyond what must anyone would be used to or think possible. In fact I'm trying to find a way to get rid of or get out of what I bought and get something from him. I begun telling everybody about him. Anybody looking for a car. Again what an incredibly beyond professional professional doesn't describe it because he's beyond professional what an incredibly kind thoughtful and helpful human being

I did and ours is still running fine.

I found it quickly. It was unlocked so I was able to sit in it and inspect it closely. Shane and another sales associate were inside the building. They both greeted me and welcomed me to the store. He got the keys for me and let me take it for a test drive. Upon return I decided to purchase the car. I had been looking EVERYWHERE for a affordable Honda Civic in good condition. We negotiated and agreed on a price and made the deal. I had a unique situation; I live in Stockton and had no way to get the car home that day. He allowed me to keep it on the lot until the next morning. Shane and his team are not stereotypical sleaze bag used car salesmen. Customer service and a welcoming atmosphere are a priority at The Car Store San Jose. They've been in business since '77 for a reason. They suit all budgets and I will be recommending The Car Store to my friends. 5/5 Stars

But, in a market where cars are in high demand, supply is drastically low, and are selling for $10k+ over MSRP... thats as good as it gets. We were referred to Arkady through a friend. Hubby has a long history in retail sales, so the car buying experience has always been... eventful, as everyone knows. But now with 2 toddlers in tow, we weren't able to dedicate the months-long research, wheeling and dealing, and multiple dealership trips all over the Bay Area to get what we wanted. So we decided to give Arkady a try. We told Arkady what we wanted. SPECIFICALLY what we wanted. Down to the T. A brand new Platinum Highlander Hybrid in Pearly White. A special order color, in a very sought after trim level and combination. Arkady looked and found us a few, but we weren't ready yet. So we waited. And the aftermath of COVID was in full affect. The dreaded chip shortage. Dealer lots were empty, cars were being bought up like no other, and the market is now flooded with buyers willing to pay top dollar from a supply pool that would disappear with a sneeze. Unfortunately for us, we just couldn't afford to battle with ballers, so we waited, hoping Arkady could find us a deal. Luckily, Arkady was able to place us an order with the Toyota Factory for our specific car, in our specific trim. We waited a few weeks, putting our trust in Arkady, and we finally got the call. The vehicle had landed and was ready for us. Everything we wanted, as we had requested. Even in this market, he was able to get us below the MSRP, which is absolutely mind blowing. He promised, and delivered in spades. His cost of service is worth its weight in gold. The process was painless. He was prompt with his communication and was always straight forward. On delivery day, we met at his office and spent no more than 15 minutes doing paperwork.... to buy a car... that was tailor made to our specification.... at a deal we were more than happy with... We cannot emphasize at how valuable his services were to us, and our family thanks him greatly. Remember the kids? They didn't even have time to even THINK about throwing a tantrum before they were buckled up in the new car and we were on our way. Arkady runs a no-joke, no-frills, get-it-done business. He saved us a lot of time, stress, and yes, money during the car buying process, and has a customer for life. Thank you, Arkady, for all that you've done!

Steven is honest, straightforward, and very easy to work with. He doesn't pressure you or waste your time. One of the biggest advantages is that he can even deliver the car directly to your home, which saves so much time compared with spending hours sitting at a dealership. After buying three cars from Steven, I can confidently say that his service, pricing, and overall experience are better than any other dealer I've worked with. Highly recommend Steven to anyone looking for a smooth, honest, and hassle-free car-buying experience!
