Bye bye !!! You've been very good to me!
Tony R.

I sold my truck to Carmax without purchasing another. I know I was paid lower than if I sold it myself but I didn't have to suffer through people not showing up, being picky on every little details of the cars problems and so on. The appraisal took about half an hour, was given 7 days to decide and brought it back 4 days later. I got my check, and was out in 20 minutes. Lot is full of pretty decent used cars and might think about buying from here if I'm in the market again.

I had an amazing positive experience today maybe the best experience of trading my older Toyota 2015 Prius for a 2014 Honda Odyssey XLE with Car Max In Gastonia, NC. Everything went so smooth and i should say a big THANK YOU to Lisa for her helpful recommendations for me to find the best vehicle. I highly recommend to buyers to go to Car Max in this location. Very positive everyone and makes our day easy. Thanks again so much and will come back next time.

Can't say enough about this location. I am a first time car buyer and KELLEY made everything super easy for me. She laid out all my options and made sure I was comfortable in all my decisions. She worked with me the whole week before I got my car. Honestly, she is amazing. Then the women doing my financials were needless to say, miracle workers!?! 10/10 would recommend these amazing women and this branch. They fixed the car up perfectly for me. Thank you so so much CarMax Gastonia. Feeling super thankful!!!

See all

I strongly recommend AVOIDING McAdenville Motors…read more I purchased a truck from them at the end of January, and as of today (March 19th), I'm still dealing with issues they promised to fix -- along with serious new concerns that should have been disclosed upfront. At the time of sale, the passenger-side mirror was broken and held in place with zip ties. The salesman assured me it would be replaced, that the part was already on it's way and they they would have it re-directed to my house. After weeks of waiting and no communication, I followed up only to find out they ordered just a small mirror piece -- not the full assembly we clearly discussed. A full replacement is costing me around $1,200. It gets worse. When I took the truck to a Ford dealership for a recall, they refused to perform the work because the windshield had already been replaced with an aftermarket one -- something that was never disclosed to me. A day or two before taking the truck to the dealer, I noticed water pooling in the passenger-side floorboard. I assumed it might be a clogged A/C drain, but after inspection, the dealer had to pull up the carpet and found sand and water underneath. I've now spent $2,000 out of pocket just to investigate and clean this up -- and I'm left seriously questioning whether this truck has prior flood damage despite having a "clean" Carfax report. Between the failure to follow through on promised repairs, lack of transparency, and the unexpected $3,200 in costs I've had to take on, this has been an incredibly frustrating and concerning experience. If this is how McAdenville Motors treats their customers, I would strongly advise you to take your business elsewhere.

I was looking for a 2016 Tacoma Off Road with crew cab and manual transmission and started my…read moresearch on Toyota.com. I've corresponded with 5 dealerships that asked me stop by to start the process and they don't even have the truck or any intention of locating since I wasn't physically there. Toyota of Gastonia was different, Dan Matkin send me an email and asked me to text him what I was looking for. We spend about 20-30 minutes texting and he was able to locate a truck and came to an agreement on the trade-in and purchase price on the vehicle. Granted Dan give me an estimated trade-in on the assumption that I was truthful with the condition of the SUV, the price was more than fair. I called and spoke with Nick Thompson and left a deposit on Friday and was called on Monday to inform me the truck was ready for delivery on Tuesday. We stopped by and dealt with Kevin Brown because Dan wasn't available, but he had handed Kevin almost all the paperwork and there was no bait-and-switch tactical involved. I was initially a bit reluctant, but Kevin was a great guy also. I was initially sold on the 2.9% for 72 months, but the promotion ended a day before while they were transferring the truck from another dealership. I did confirm the promotion rate ended through other dealerships as well, so it wasn't their fault. The best they had was 3.9% for 72 months, but Nick Thompson was able to meet me in the middle due to my credit score and off we went to the finance manager at the sister dealership at Mazda in well under 30 minutes. We planned on transferring the plate from our existing SUV to the Tacoma, but didn't realize that that wasn't possible if my wife, who financed the SUV, wasn't on the loan also. So in the middle the singing we had to start over again to add my wife to the loan and registration for the Tacoma and spend an extra 30 minutes. Jay Kumar, Finance Manager, had another customer waiting but never appears to be frustrated and he educated us on the different service contracts but was never pushy. We left after 90 minutes after arrival to take delivery of the Tacoma. But it doesn't end there, a few days later we received a tin box with cookies which were actually pretty damn good. I also had to text Dan again to get an official odometer reading so we can cancel the existing service contract on the trade-in. He responded promptly and still provide excellent customer service, even after the deal had already been closed. Buying a car at Toyota of Gastonia was by far the easiest and fastest car purchase experience for me and I've purchased new on several brands such as Acura, BMW, Honda, Nissan, VW and now Toyota. As with anything in life, your miles may vary. It all depends on who you get on the other end of the line. Dan, Nick, Kevin and Jay are definitely assets to Toyota of Gastonia.

This dealership ruined the HVAC in my Sienna. The vehicle was brought in for something completely…read moreunrelated and there was nothing in the original diagnostic indicating any type of HVAC issue. After spending $1600 to resolve the issues, I picked up the car only to have hot air blowing. Dealership picked the van back up and said issue was fixed now and no charge since it was their fault but when I tried the heat now it was not working. I was so upset I asked for the Servi e Manager. The asst service manager, Scotty, said he was in charge and that they would need to tear down the whole dash and it would cost thousands of dollars to repair. Further, he tried to indicate it was on the original diagnostic even though it is nowhere in the paperwork and no suggestions were even made with anything concerning the HVAC. Poor customer service and poor technicians and service bay who will cause other issues with your vehicle.
