    Carizona Timeline September 7, 2025 - Purchased 2016 Kia Optima from Carizona (Odometer: 94,131). September 8, 2025 - Noticed an odor; Jiffy Lube confirmed the vehicle had no cabin filter and low oil levels. September 8-12, 2025 - Observed white exhaust smoke from the tailpipe at all hours.

September 22, 2025 - Contacted LegalShield and was referred to Davis Miles Law Firm. September 22, 2025 - Attorney Tracy (Davis Miles) advised not to retrieve the vehicle and instead have it towed to an independent dealer. September 26, 2025 - Vehicle towed from Carizona to Courtesy Kia.

September 27, 2025 - Check engine light appeared; Courtesy Kia confirmed the intake manifold was defective and the engine required full replacement. September 27, 2025 - Odometer: 94,544 miles. October 6, 2025 - Davis Miles sent formal demand letter to Carizona requesting: - Loan unwind and reimbursement for all expenses, or - Proper engine repair by Courtesy Kia.

    Horrible and rude customer service. I simply wanted to see inside the vehicle before giving over my information. I have been buying cars for 25 years and never had a dealer not allow me to at least look inside the vehicle. The would not unlock a car for me to see inside. Had a manager come out and was straight and to the point about it, super rude.

    Excellent service and a great experience!…read more My car died when I went to the gym, and I was completely stranded in the parking lot near Rally's. I stopped at O'Reilly Auto Parts on 855 W University Drive in Mesa (85201), and a very professional and knowledgeable lady came out to the parking lot to help me. They jumped my car and brought it over to the store, where she carefully tested the battery, starter, and other components. She discovered that the problem was actually a loose battery cable. She fixed the cable and did all the necessary tests to make sure everything was working properly. My car was running again! I was very impressed with her professionalism, knowledge, and willingness to help me when I was stranded. She took the time to find the actual problem and fix it. I highly recommend this O'Reilly Auto Parts location on University Drive in Mesa. Thank you so much for your help and excellent customer service! You made a stressful situation so much easier.

Said they would ship from LA and would be there the next day. Ok, I'm thinking that's good customer service. Wrong! Said the they were ordered too late for the shipment. But not a phone call, so I wasted my Sunday driving there to be told the bad news. Said it would be here Tuesday. Guess what? Only the fuel filter was available but the air filter couldn't be found. I am worried that these won't fit too, because their track record, so far, has been atrocious. I'm glad I'm not a flat rate mechanic, my lift would be cluttered with non revenue producing cars. I know what I'm talking about - I spun wrenches for ten years Follow up. They did call me when the new filter was in. They even gave me a gift card. I've always had good experiences with NAPA as they cater to mechanics. Thanks for stepping up and restoring my faith in you.

    After a major accident that totaled my car, I found myself back on the market for my next vehicle…read morepurchase. I was very leary of purchasing pre-owned as I have heard so many horror car buying stories of shady salesman, selling faulty vehicles and lacking clarity about the true vehicle condition, so I started my research. It took me close to a month of research, before I found a preowned dealership that still honored integrity. I knew the cars I was interested in and found my way to Goldie's. I was working with another dealership, as I had been pre-approved, but let me tell you what made the difference.. the service at Goldie's ! Through text and email, John, my sales-friend, (I call him) was so relatable and communicative. Walking in I have to admit is pretty cool, in the show room they had a old school IMMACULATE Corvette, a skew ball machine, and arcade games it felt unlike any other dealership I had walked in. The owners son greeted me and asked if I needed anything and to let him know if I did! He was the sweetest teenager. When they say Goldie's is a family business they really mean it ! I was working with John and let me tell you he was so transparent and honest it was like a breath of fresh air. I had considered other vehicles they had but he talked me through the maintenance cost, resale value and common mechanical issues each of the cars I had considered. Once I settled on a vehicle he was able to check for me the maintenance records as well as reviewed the carfax report with me. When I took the car for a test drive he told me to take my time get to know the car and make sure it was right for me. I never felt pressured to purchase. I was having a horrible time in dealing with the insurance payout of my previous vehicle and John was very empathetic in understanding my situation. He had set expectations before I came that with the insurance payout being delayed I may not be able to take the vehicle the vehicle home. I was thrilled with the no pressure atmosphere, and just came to take a look at the vehicle in person, with zero expectation to buy. John and his manager worked magic. I did in fact decide to purchase my vehicle and was able to take it home, there is a small cosmetic issue that I requested to have repaired and he called immediately and got the approval to get it taken care of. I'll be returning later this week to have that completed. I'll keep you guys posted after the service appointment. I had a great experience and I feel I got a good deal on my vehicle and, I felt like my business was valued, my concerns were heard and they've made a lifelong customer out of me ! Special thanks to Goldie's and super special thanks to John!
