What a great feeling have an used car dealership that I trust and highly recommend! Just purchased my 12th car over the last 16 years and looking to buy one for my son. I totally trust Ryan, my sales guy and Nick, the owner with whatever they recommend. Great selection of cars available; they keep their website updated. read more

Cransh Auto Sales - My 12th car purchased from Cransh Auto over the last 16 years - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I had spent several months looking for a car with a low budget. I am a college student that did not have very much experience with car sales. Ryan did an exceptional job working with me and my family on getting the sale done. I did not once feel pressured on buying the car I bought and he listened to my personal car needs. read more

We had a great experience at Cransh! Found the first car for our new teenage driver. Love their policy of preventative maintenance and getting those cars that already have some miles on them ready for more! The best part, a small problem popped up with the car after we took it home, and like a boss, they were on it and made it right! We have another teenager set to drive in 2 years and we will shop first at Cransh Auto! Ask for Jason! He was our point person and did an incredible job! read more

Cransh Auto Sales - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I really wish I could give a better review as the staff was nice upfront, I bought a Toyota Yaris in 2021 for about 6K after taxes, this car is barely worth 2K as of now even after extensive repairs. ( I will admit the market sucks rn so I won't blame that on them completely but I definitely feel I was completely robbed) I have had to fully replace the suspension since buying the car on top of my entire exhaust system is in need of replacement, (can't even get the car registered as the price for replacement is insane) at the time I bought the car I was desperate and didn't really have another option, wouldn't buy from here again which sucks because my Dad growing up loved buying his cars at this place but according to my Dad it seems the quality and care they used to put into their vehicles has severally dropped. (Obviously, as they sold me a car that used to bottom out at the slightest bump in the road knowing that the entire car needed completely new suspension, the car literally leaned forward to where the front half damn near touched the ground, thankfully my brother in law and fiance have helped me to crawl out of this hole of car repairs, still a long road to go, unfortunately.) If you decide to purchase with this place definitely have a personal mechanic thoroughly look at the state of the car as I could have saved myself thousands of dollars at this point. read more

I bought a car here because the car fax showed the last owner had a lot of maintenance done at a dealership. I also believed all their hype about new filters and other parts. They lied, I took the car to a dealership right away to have it checked out. I had them change the oil because Cransh didn't say what weight oil they used. Only said syn on type of oil. I'm sure. Toyota found that the cabin air filter was filthy black on both sides. So much for new filters like the ad said. I went to remove the plastic cover on top of the engine and one nut was torqued down so hard that the stud came out of the head. Had to get some channel locks and a socket to remove the nut from the stud. Then I saw where they had lost a bolt and substituted a large washer and an allen bolt to replace it. The last time the plugs were change was at a dealership. They wouldn't have jury rigged it like this. Just waiting to see what other surprises await me. I am going to attach some pictures of this mess. Not sure how many I can attach. I only have one word to say to prospective buyers. BEWARE!!! read more

Drove 3 hours from Austin to buy a car I saw online here. Worked with Jason who was very professional and honest. Took extra photos and videos since I couldn't see it in person before I came to buy it. Everyone at this dealership is very kind and professional, I was extremely impressed. Also shout out Adilen who went over all the paper work with me and was super kind. Would do business here again for sure. read more

Cransh auto sales in Arlington has the worst hours. On June 14,2017 My son and I were going to look at the perfect car that I had found. Seems their hours are till 6pm everyday. Terrible hours that are the same as mine. They refused to wait fifteen minutes for us to come see the car. I would hate to see how they treated me if I had any problems with the car I purchased. Most dealerships want to earn your business. I guess Ryan Holman doesn't need the money. Ha read more

I have had much experience with this auto company... For the past six years I have came back here (stupidly) for my vehicles until I realized that I had been through SIX cars that all lasted less than a year and costed me more than double the cars cost in repair services!!! Obviously says something about the dealer(scammers)! Do not buy a used car from Cransh! Just look elsewhere to save your money! read more

No haggle dealership. Left the place feeling dirty. You can't talk to a manager. I liked the car and bought it but they took the fitted plastic floor mats out after I test drove it, before I bought it. When I asked about it, no one said anything and I was given the cheapest smallest floor mats. Cars are as is, sellers won't disclose any issues with the vehicles so check everything over yourself. read more

I have had so much trouble with this business. I bought a 2007 Mini Cooper S which LOOKED like it was in great condition, considering that Omar & Zack said it was in a great condition. I have YET to receive my license plates & TITLE; we bought the car cash mid January.. it's mid April. They will say anything to make you buy the car. Also, coolant box is leaking along with the oil & transmission.. Please, DO NOT purchase any cars from this lot! I've called numerous times (11) on different days & they didn't call me at all. I finally went up to the dealership & they apologized & gave me new temporary tags.. read more

I bought a 2012 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road Extended Cab from Ricardo in March, 2022. The truck had 158,000 miles and wasn't as clean or nice as it appeared in AutoTrader. They cleaned it more while we were there on a Saturday from Oklahoma. Then we learned he wouldn't take a personal check with verification from my bank. My mistake. They held the truck until we returned on Tuesday. Oil and filter had been changed, new windshield, new shocks and brakes, 2" lift, and new AC condenser and compressor. The truck had a vibration when leaving and approaching a stop. I risked buying it thinking it needed U joints which I could change. My son quickly discovered they had installed the two rear 2" blocks for the lift backwards. I turned them around and have now driven 22,000 trouble free miles with the truck. The original interior now looks almost new after a lot of cleaning. I got lucky and this truck will be in our fleet for years to come. read more

Completely unprofessional employees. Was surrounded by three people who accused me and my son of stealing car keys. Buyer beware. Stay as far away as you can. read more

Ricardo is the salesman I had and he never followed up on information he said he'd send me. Called the office and unfortunately he answered the phone. I said I wanted to speak with the manager and he said he wasn't in. I left them my number to have the manager call me back. He never called. I go in person and sure enough Ricardo is the one to greet me. He pulls the car around and it looks worse than it does in the photos (faded paint and plastic, smells of cigarettes). Said he wouldn't take less than the advertised price. Wouldn't recommend. read more

Bad customer service. More interested in playing on phones than selling cars. Then act like jerks when you say something about it.

Overpriced and typical sleazy used car dealer. Don't waste your time or money there. This place is a joke.

By far the most shady, disgusting people we've ever gotten a car from. They sell used cars that are falling apart once you leave the lot. They over price all their cars, try to sell you a warranty (scam, it doesn't cover shit worth your while) and you'll be lucky to get an honest employee. read more

We found a car online for our 19 old grandson, I think Auto Trader, made an appt to see and drive the car and Ryan had it ready and waiting for me. The car was in great condition, according to our mechanic, so after all the family that was involved agreed, we bought the car. For some reason it took a good while for the paperwork the day my daughter picked it up, but overall a good experience. We would definitely go there again if the need arises. read more

***Initial review: If you're in the market for a vehicle (by force), my heart goes out to you. This is not the economy to be buying a car in right now. Everything is inflated. So, when my insurance company took me hostage by totaling out my vehicle after a minor accident and taking it from me, I was thrust into this inflation hellscape with no negotiation and buying power. What's on the mainstream dealership lots is a joke, so don't even bother with them. That leaves private sellers and small auto dealers like Cransh Auto Sales. I have been to Cransh before and have been tempted to buy, during a better economy. However, in my current situation, Cransh was the solution to my problem. I'm not going to blow smoke and say it was a killer deal, because it wasn't. But I felt like it was the best deal in town, given the circumstances. It was fair. I bought a 2010 Acura RDX with 104K miles. It's a pretty solid vehicle. So I'm reviewing the buying experience with five stars: Ryan at Cransh is a good, honest guy. He's got a good vibe and so does the whole staff, frankly. I will extend my review after I put some miles on my vehicle, to test its lasting power after being with Cransh's mechanics. Nonetheless, your car-buying adventure should include a visit to Cransh Auto Sales. ***Update to my review 4/21/22: What I wrote above still applies, but now I'm providing the aftermath story of purchasing a vehicle from Cransh Auto Sales. After buying the 2010 Acura RDX, it had several problems. The heater didn't work, so they fixed that before we bought it. The left axle was leaking fluid, found after purchasing. They fixed that, sort of. The power steering pump was failing. The replaced it after I committed to paying $200 of the work. The axle seal started leaking again, which I later found out they installed it improperly. I live an hour away from Cransh, so incorporate that into the expenses that are now mounting. Recently, the AC stopped working. Instead of calling Cransh - clearly, I'm tired of them - I took it to my mechanic. So, $1,600 later, here's what was wrong and what I fixed: *Replaced the engine coolant thermostat *Coolant flush and new coolant *Power steering fluid flush and new fluid (which they should've done when they replaced the power steering pump, but they didn't) *Oil change (not an issue, regular maintenance) *Replaced the Climate Control Reman Compressor *Replaced the A/C Refrigerant Temperature Sensor As you can see, there was clearly a lot wrong with the Acura. I feel like an absolute idiot for buying this vehicle. What was $12,000 has now become $14,000. A normal car dealership would've noticed these issues, fixed them, and then put the car on the lot for $14,000. The $12,000 was already at our price limit, so these additional costs come at a time when prices are already inflated--right along with Cransh's inflated selling price. My recommendation is to not buy from Cransh, unless you want some serious headaches. They sell their vehicles as-is for a reason. They don't want to put any money into their vehicles - except for the basics like brake pads - so they would rather pass that down to the unsuspecting buyer. So, in this very challenging car market, I wish you all the best. It's tough out there. read more

Really sad!!! This guy Ernest Munoz will buy car parts from you on eBay then return his broken, mismatched, or used damaged items. He will file claims and stick you with his bad parts so he can try to make a profit on his shady car lot! Way to go Ernest!!! Also once he knows he has burned you he becomes "not available" at 817-825-3617 or the stealership he runs... REALLY BAD BUSINESS!!! read more

My son was there today ready to pay cash for a $18k truck and was treated very rudely and walje out!. I will let the owner know how his Sales team does apparently not care if they make sales or not! Don't buy here! read more

Bought a jeep from them and less than a month later the front and rear differential goes out. After taking it to a mechanic, too late, that showed me the damage, I am having a very hard time understanding how the Crash mechanic did not suspect something was going on in either area. I would be very careful buying a vehicle here. Not recommended at all. read more

I bought a 2001 Lexus IS300 from them. Flew in from out of town which they where kind to hold the car for me for 1 day. I bought the car and took it home. 2 weeks later I had to replace the radiator because it was cracked and also today I replaced the thermostat seals and thermostat because of damage and the car was leaking coolant. Mechanics said something had been poured into the system to prevent it from leaking so fast but over the 2 weeks it wore out and the leaks began to show...... word of advice... do not buy from them. They try to sell you on the fact that the spark plugs and other gaskets have been changed which in reality they patch up major damage and then sell the car. I will never buy from them again and will steer everyone away from them!!!!!! read more

Kind, helpful, and informative staff. They are very confident in their cars. Arthur explained they buy from auctions and fix the cars up in their in house service shop. They allowed my mechanic to look at the car before we bought it. My mechanic was very pleased with the condition of the car for the price. They are cash cars so be prepared to pay outright. All in all I love my little '06 Matrix! Thanks you guys! read more

I did not buy a car here. I was looking for a dependable used car for my daughter who is attending school in Texas in the under $8000 catagory. This place had mixed reviews but good inventory in that price range. They did have quite a few options to choose from, I'll give them that. The sales person seemed straight up and it was low pressure, I'll give them that. But most the cars looked very "tired". I test drove one - ran "ok" but it pulled to the right during braking and just didn't seem very sound - very tin can feel. The next car wouldn't even start without some real coaxing. Made me very suspcious of the quality of a car from here so I turned the key back in and left. Not my cup of tea. read more

I have to say I am quite impressed with this dealer. We drove about an hour away to look at some used mini vans. Upon our arrival Ryan already had the vans I had spoken to him about earlier pulled up front for us to look at. His friendly non-pressured approach was greatly appreciated and allowed us to take our time to make our decision which I can say was a hard one as both minivans we had test drove were in really great condition. I have to say we visited a few dealers before making our decision and I can honestly say from the vehicles I seen they take great pride in offering the best selection of used vehicles at very reasonable prices. Unfortunately I didn't get the lady's name that handled the paperwork in the office but she was very nice and friendly as well. I would definitely recommend this place to others looking to get a good deal on a used car. Thank you again and God bless. read more

I bought a 2013 CRV from Ricardo I think around Feb of 2020, it is now December and the only issue I've had is the crappy Wal-Mart battery went out with the first good cold snap witch is in no way their fault. I was working in New Mexico at the time and decided I need a all wheel drive for the messy roads in the mountains, it was in total a 10 hr drive from where I live so it was important that it was a swift transaction. I called in first thing in the morning, told them which one I wanted to look at and when I would be there as Arlington is approx. 3 hr drive from where I live, when I arrived the vehicle I wanted to look at was on the lift in their shop for me to look at, upon investigation I decided I did not want that one but had another from their lot picked out and they put that one on the lift for me as well. In short I bought the 2nd car I looked at and drove it to work while they stored the car I drove up in for 2 1/2 weeks till I could get back for it. Best experience I have ever had buying a vehicle. read more

This has got be the worst used car dealership on planet earth. I found a truck I liked a Mazda B-4000. The problem is I live in Omaha, NE and I liked the truck enough I was willing to buy it over the phone and have it shipped. I started to wonder after a few days why they were being so slow, unorthodox and unprofessional. Turns out the reason was the asshole owner was holding the truck for someone else the entire time. I understand that if he desires to sell the truck to a certain someone that's okay, but the least he could do is call and tell me that so I don't waste me time the last three days trying to buy a truck from these butt plug salesman. This is a dirty, unprofessional, dishonest dealership and I definitely wouldn't recommend anyone buy a vehicle from this shithole some might call a business. The day they go out of business I will have no doubt in my mind they deserved it. read more

Great experience! Guys were super responsive and helpful and I love my car!

DO NOT BUY A CAR FROM CRANSH!! Their prices are great for a reason, the cars are junk!! They buy all their cars at auction from Carmax and then do brakes, tires etc, but leave the more expensive stuff for you to find out later needs to be fixed. Save yourself the hassle and aggravation by NOT buying from them - you can thank me later!! read more

I bought a 2001 Honda Prelude, as-is, for $6,000. The sales person I worked with, two years ago, told me there were no leaks. The next day there is a pool transmission oil in my friends workshop. He also told me that they'll fix up the audio system (radio didn't seem to work in the test drive). Looked over the shoulder to find it just sitting in there shop for hours. Next day, my friend and I popped open the front end speaker covers and found nothing. Now, I did ask to shave-off the price a bit. The salesman abruptly told me about his family needing to eat... Well you sure made this high school student starve for a while. This review is sure long over due but, the screwed-up situation was enough to get me the courage to write it today. If I had the momentum before, I would have called the Arlington city representative about these situations happening. read more

Be careful when dealing with this dealer as they also run a shop to fix broken cars and to put just enough bandaids to make it sellable. And they'll show you empty boxes of parts in the trunk of new brake pads and spark plugs they've put in. I've bought a Honda accord from them and found out two weeks later with a check engine light that the oil rings in the engine are bad, causing a lot of oil burning. The oil looked brand new when it was time to do an oil change which meant they topped it off for the sale. I've taken it back to them thinking they could fix it, but Ryan the sales guy suggested keeping quarts of oil at home to fill it up when oil is low like he does with his Honda Ridgeline. He didn't understand I was having to add 1 qt of oil every 500 miles driven. And now I have another engine light about the catalytic converter being inefficient due to the oil burning. Honda suggests replacing the entire engine. I've taken it back again to see if the dealer could repair it and Mike was nice to try but no luck. Nick runs this place and I had the opportunity to speak with his father who happened to be there. His father spoke highly of the dealership and its honest practices much like his father's textile business overseas. But I have to say I was disappointed about my purchase within two weeks. Be careful when purchasing from them. I would stay away unless you are a mechanic or have a trustworthy mechanic to inspect the vehicle. read more

Total waste of time! I called about getting my daughters car looked at and was told to bring it by. I brought the car by and was told that I need to schedule an appointment. Totally different from what I was told initially. After buying two cars for Cransh I will never come back! Thanks for wasting my time Ryan! read more

I'm not sure why these bad reviews are on here. We purchased a Honda Crosstour from Albert last year and it has been great, so far with absolutely no mechanical or body problems. The price was right. He was nice and answered our questions on several cars we looked at. We got a complete Carfax. They had serviced it, added almost new everything and it had new Honda tires. I not only recommend them, but my son will hopefully go there to buy his car. read more

I was referred by a friend who recently purchased a car at Cransh. I found they had a great selection and payed attention to detail on the vehicles. My trade in was given fair market value and was satisfied with the whole experience. read more

DO NOT GO NEAR THIS DEALERSHIP! Where do I start? I found a very nice car at a fair (although not an especially good) price online. Drove 3 hours to see it and bought it. Noticed a few things as I was there. One is the CarFax said it had pinstripes applied at one point. No pinstripes. (Was told they "washed off") Next. The passenger door handle was not secure. (was told the plastic cover popped off). Examination by a mechanic revealed the entire handle had been ripped off and then glued back on when the car was painted....pause. Long story short my new car with a perfectly clean carfax had been sold to Cransh with $6500 of hail damage...and they never made a peep about it. The hood and trunk have been replaced with shitty aftermarket parts and the entire car has been ruined with a low-buck, poorly applied paint job. The whole thing was a sham. From the carfax through the sale. So I guess I'm left with zero option but to contact an attorney and go down that route. read more

I bought a Lexus from here. They cleared the codes prior to me purchasing the vehicle, so obviously a week after purchasing; the check engine light came on. I also noticed that the power door locks on the keyless entry didn't work. When I brought this issue to Ryan's attention, I was told "Yes, we listed the car with power door locks, but that doesn't mean they have to work." Umm, excuse me?? I took the car back to them and had to leave it for 2 weeks. They just cleared the codes again. My check engine light is back on, along with about 4 other dash lights. When driving by this junkyard, just keep on driving. Trust me. read more

I've had a really bad 1 month of ownership of the vehicle I purchased from them.. it was 2007 Mazda 3. A relatively clean car might I add. 2nd week of ownership the battery light would come on and off. Didn't think much of it as the car felt fine and drove normal. 3rd week of ownership as I was driving back home, at night may I add, and the battery light, ABS, traction control and the power steering light came on and lost power steering plus the headlights would give out. Managed to make it safely to Autozone and got my battery tested. IT WAS BAD! shelled out $150 for a new one. 2 days later the car wouldn't start.. come to find out the alternator was also bad!! So I had to shell out another $240 for that. I haven't made my first monthly payment and I've already had to replace a faulty battery and alternator. Also, why would they leave all the empty boxes of the replacement parts in the back of the trunk? Made it very difficult to load groceries when I found out they left all them boxes back there. Overall I'm not satisfied with the experience I've had with the vehicle. read more
