This is how you buy cars...we called to check on a mercades convertible and see if it was actually there. The young man was very nice and said yes and asked if we would like to come and see it..we said yes that we would make the drive (about an hour). Got there and he had the car out and ready to look at and we did not have to wait. He was very knowledgeable about the car and did not push us for a decision. This is the way car salespeople should be. ! read more

Crown Motors PDX - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Gladstone, Oregon

I purchased a 2009 Dodge Ram 3500 from Sean at Crown Motors three months ago. I live in Alaska, so the truck had to be shipped to me. Of course, being so far away I had to take their word on everything about the truck. When the truck arrived, there were a few things I felt should have been addressed prior to shipping but I also realized that part of the problem was probably me but I needed it in Alaska as soon as possible. Sean really went out of his way to accommodate me and I had the truck within 2 weeks. When I called Sean to tell him about the few items I felt could have been better, he made no excuses but said he would speak with the owner Ray when he got back from his vacation and would try to make it right. I sort of felt like it was used car salesmen lingo for your out of luck but to my surprise not only did he speak with the owner but within 4 days of the owner getting back I had a check for $1000.00 to fix the issues on the truck. I was ecstatic and felt like they delivered on every promise they made and as for the truck I could not be happier. I would highly recommend Crown Motors because of how they treated me every step in the process. Thank you to the team at Crown motors and yes, I would buy from them again. One last thing the lady who does their titles was also fantastic. I had a temp tag when it arrived and within two weeks had my permanent Alaska plates. Thats as fast as if I had bought the truck locally. read more

Zero stars. Since buying daughters car at this establishment, I have paid close to the cost of the car in repairs. It's broken down again, and I am dumping this piece of crap car. Sleezy car dealership selling bad cars. I have verbally advised people I know to not buy anything there. I wanted to comment here to warn others. We have had vehicle less than a year. You're offered warranty was a joke. Here's an idea...sell reliable cars. read more

Took advantage of a mentally handicapped boy These people sold my son who lives in a group home and receives SSI due to mental issues a 2022 Challenger.....he has no license and it's highly unlikely he will be able to get one...anyone talking to him for more than 10 minutes would realize he has no concept of financing, interest or anything related to purchasing a car. Advertised price of car 24,000...by the time Crowns team of crack salesmen were thru adding extras 38,000.Financing should be a problem but once again didn't slow the team. They showed up at my home @ 6 pm while I was away and had my wife who has calcification of the arteries in her brain (doesn't always know what day it is) and macular degeneration (she can't read), brought her out into the driveway and had her cosign the loan... then left in such a hurry the car was left in the street blocking the neighbor's driveway....when I contacted Ray to try to get this resolved was told they didn't see any issues with the sale ....This is not over read more

Worst experience I'll ever have. You guys are the reason people tend to hate going through dealerships as middleman. If I go to a furniture store to buy a $10,000 couch. That couch will cost me $10,000 plus delivery possibly. With car dealerships it does not work that way. I work 60 hours a week at $18.54 per hour plus OT pay. I needed a reliable car and needed the transaction to be seamless and to take advantage of the EV credit for Oregon and Federal. My bolt Ev 2020 premier was listed at $16,000 then you slip in at the very last minute with no verbal discussion only in fine print "other fee" of 1300 for a stupid security system I said I don't not want but it's already installed does not mean I should legally pay for something I do not want and after already sneaking in and then me canceling a warranty. Human to human you should not do this to the lower class eat off the rich not me and if you have any kindness in your heart at least apologize and make it right. read more

I recently bought a 2020 . Malibu from crown motors. They added a charge for some anti theft for $1188, The car has Onstar I called and told them I did not want that. They told me that in case of a theft I would get $5000. There is no paper work saying that. I called several more times no answer or call back I sent a letter requesting a refund and a e mail. Nothing. Dont trust that everything works,taillight was out when I got home chip in the windshield spidered on the way home They paid for the taillight. I would not buy from them,cant trust them read more

Do business elsewhere. They responded to a Craigslist ad and low balled us on our car. They convinced us to come in by saying they had cut a check and had it ready for us and to come in anytime, asking us to remove the Craigslist ad. When we got there, the claimed that the car needed spark plugs and an oil change after their certified technology looked it over in addition to minor scratches that were disclosed in the Craigslist ad. First off, it's an electric vehicle, so it doesn't have spark plugs or oil. It was clear they had no intention of honoring their offer and blamed their salesman after we showed them his texts. It's clear that the owner plays "blame the customer" whenever there is a bad review. All I'm saying is that there have to be better places to spend your money. Don't waste time here. read more

I came in with not so great credit and a car that I still owed a decent amount on, not only did they find me a 2015 renegade but they made sure I was taken care of. This car lot went above and beyond to take care of me and my family and I am forever grateful! read more

Dave and his team at the Service shop are the best!!! They do awesome work, and they are honest and go the extra mile for the customer. Will keep going back and will always refer my friends and family to this great team! read more

I bought a F150 from Ray in mid 2019. The transaction was smooth, I drove over 100 miles and I actually expected to find some sort of bait and switch or something else shady because his price was so reasonable. Not at all the deal, Ray was super efficient and easy to work with. He told me the truck was from a regular customer of his that buys fleet vehicles for construction and Ray got a great deal. I figured he's a typical salesman who made up a good story about why ge offered such a good price, but sure enough I found a receipt in the truck for the company and the truck was on record when I got an oil change registered to the company. Ray wasn't BS'ing and he was also clear he wasn't negotiating on price which was understandable. I waited this long to write a review to make sure nothing weird popped up about the truck. This truck has been solid. Next time I need a car I will be checking Crown Motors inventory first. read more

So thankful for Tony and Bobby. They made our buying experience smooth and were able to get us a better deal than the bank. Definitely recommend going to them for future purchases. Thanks guys. read more

Terrible customer service. Requests for pricebare ignored. I submitted my credit application and the salesman Calvin ignored my text and another salesman Robert ignored my chat session inquiries. I called the office phone and my calls were sent to voicemail. They have my personal Information and in return I requested the price of the vehicle, is this an unreasonable request? read more

Ray was super helpful. We went in with our financing already in order. He was really busy (already helping a couple other customers) but he answered our questions and we felt as ease that we weren't being pressured. We left our finance info with him and picked the car up two days later, super easy. We are happy with our car. read more

If i could leave a lower star i would unfortunately i I thought ray was a good stand up sales man and was happy with the sale but after not even having my 2012 volvo for a few weeks the engine suddenly blew a rod and the starter seized! We drove the car with care and even got an oil change rite away considering he had used the car for his personal use and put quite a few miles on it and not once got the oil done but did not mention this at the time. He also did not offer a warranty although he stated it was an option. Then lied to my dad and said that the mechanic I took it to said we redlined it and thats why it threw a rod witch was a complete and uder lie. He also insinuated that if we heard the car not sounding rite that we should have taken it in rite away but the car had absolutely no warning sounds or anything indicating the engine was going to blow it happened with no warning what so ever. He has done nothing but say to take it to his mechanic and then still have to pay him for a new engine bcuz he thinks he can get a better deal. But he should not only be a good person but a good business man and give me a new car or my money back! A CAR SHOULD NOT BLOW UP AFTER JUST BUYING IT!! So i personally would not waiste my time on his cars that he doeant take care of or his customers especially during such a hard time rite now when i used the last of what i saved to buy what i thought would be a reliable car and now he thinks i have money for a new engine!!! Im hurt, stressed and feel like im in a nightmare because of this! read more

I attempted to delete by previous review but apparently I am not able to do so. So update the owner made things right and I got my new truck for the agreed price. Truck looks great. read more

I am a new driver An was very worried about where I could find a good car. After a family member recommended I check out Crown Motors, I found there website. I immediately found a great Chevrolet, Cruze and sent a message after closing to confirm the vehicles availability. I was messaged back early the following morning (today). I was told to come on in. Once I arrived the Cruze was open an I was handed keys to take her for a spin. I got a great below KBB deal an felt no pressure: Ray was very friendly and professional if I need another car or had to recommend a trustworthy dealer i wouldn't hesitate to tell someone to go see Ray at Crown Motors. read more

Crown has a good web presence so I was quickly able to find the exact car I was looking for there and another place. The other gave me the classic routine and told me my trade-in was valueless sight unseen. Ray was the exact opposite of this company and every big dealer I've ever worked with before. He made the process easier and smoother than my 7 lifetime cars prior. There was never pressure at any point and no question received a shady or measured response. The bank took a while on my paperwork so we chatted for a good portion of the day. Ray is a very real, very open, very fair dude that is purposely making things painless for you. I've already told my coworkers and neighbors about Crown and now I'm telling you. Believe the reviews. read more

In 70 years of living, I can't ever recall dealing with a more Honest Customer Oriented Dealer than Ray. A week ago, I purchased a BMW Z4 from Ray at Crown Motors. I had not actually seen the vehicle before arriving, as I live outside Portland. When I came to pick it up I mentioned that the two front tires were a bit more worn than I had expected. "Not a problem" say's Ray. He made a phone call and the tires were quickly replaced. While waiting I was able to visit with Ray, and he explained his sales approach was to make each transaction as positive as possible for his customers. I was impressed with his service, and follow through after the sale. Ray wants customers for life, and his way of doing business brings a breath of fresh air to the phrase "Used Car Dealer". Thanks Ray, and I'll send you all the business I can! read more

I am writing this review regarding the BEST CAR-BUYING EXPERIENCE EVER! I recently purchased a used SUV from Crown Motors, PDX in Gladstone, OR. I can say without hesitation that it was one of the best car-buying experiences imaginable. Ray, Gary, and the rest of the crew at Crown Motors are extremely nice people who in my view treat everyone with courtesy and respect. Also, they do not engage in any hard sell techniques. They let the quality of the cars that they offer, and their outstanding customer service, speak for themselves. The best way to envision the car buying experience there is to imagine that you have invited a salesperson to your home, explained what you were looking for, and then negotiated and closed the entire buying transaction in your own living room. That's the type of atmosphere that Ray, Gary, and the others have created at Crown Motors. Also, those people who are equally respectful and cordial during the buying process routinely left the dealership with a full tank of gas in their newly purchased Crown Motors vehicle. Finally, one of the other factors that impressed me to no end about the owner(s) and Managers at Crown Motors is that they are honorable people who want to sell good reliable cars to their customers, and they consistently kept their word. I highly recommend buying a car from Crown Motors, PDX. read more

Ray is a customer-service guru! He's flexible, patient and trustworthy. I didn't end up buying the vehicle I went to look at, but Ray was a pleasure to work with. I wish every car dealership had a representative like Ray to work with. read more

Ray is the best! He is willing to work with you and answer all your questions. I never knew that buying a car could truly be hassle-free. Ray also followed through on everything that he said he would and made sure that we got the car we wanted. I can't recommend Ray enough if you need to buy a car. read more

I recently purchased a 2004 4Runner from Ray at Crown Motors and couldn't have been happier with the process. The vehicles was in great shape and fairly priced, and it was a no pressure environment. Ray was very flexible with his time, staying late to show me the car and later process the paperwork. I even took the car out for a few hours to check it out and run an errand, which sold me! read more

Ray is SUPER nice and honest. He's a one man op so you have to call ahead if you want to see one of his cars. I hope his business grows. When you go, his lot is the back half of another small car lot so make sure you drive all the way back. I would highly recommend Ray. 100! read more

Ray was very helpful in our car purchase process. We called ahead of time to make an appointment, and the car was ready for us to test drive when we arrived. We liked the car, had it inspected, Ray was very courteous the whole time. Ray submitted the paperwork for us to have the vehicle registered and the plates delivered to the house. He really went above and beyond to deliver the best customer service. We purchased the vehicle for a very good price, and we will definitely be going back to Crown Motors for any car we buy in future! read more

I purchased a 2009 VW Tiguan S in March 2019. Ray was helpful and the transaction went smooth. UNFORTUNATELY I WAS SOLD A TICKING TIME BOMB. The issue started the very next day. After two days at Ray's mechanic, he said nothing was wrong and gave the car back to me. I continued to have intermittent problems and 5 months later the timing chain skipped. The car is not drivable and I am looking at thousands of dollars to repair. Beware of VW/Audi between 2008-2014. Check the VIN on timingchainlitigation.com before you buy. There are vehicles on the Crown Motor lot today that have matching VINs. You won't find this issue on the Carfax report and it's not listed as a Recall. There was a class action lawsuit and settlement to provide consumers with compensation should they have timing chain issues. However, there are vehicles out there which were never fixed. If the car has over 100k miles, you get nothing and your engine repairs may cost more than you paid for the car. read more

After searching for a quality used car for our teenage daughter, she ran across an ad for what we were looking for at Crown Motors PDX. We were not only impressed by the quality of the used cars, but also the low pressure, friendly sales experience. We would recommend Ray at Crown Motors PDX as he was willing to go the extra mile to accomodate our requests for after hours meetings and changes with ease. The quality of the used cars was impressive, in fact friends and family can't believe the car we purchased is used. We had a great used car buying experience and our daughter loves her new/used car! read more

Not impressed with customer service. The car I purchased didn't even make it 1500 miles before it broke down and had to be towed. I called him and told him what the issue was and he told me to get back to him when I found out what the issue was from the Dealer. Well $3600 later the car is working fine now. Like he said I sent him a copy of the repair bill and sent him several emails. He never called back. Buyer beware..... read more

I just recently bought a car from Ray from crowns motor and have to say I am very impressed. Ray was willing to stay open until I was able to get there after a full day of looking at cars, I was pretty exhausted and it was getting late and was freezing outside. He was very kind and did not pressure me. I loved the car and ended up buying it. after that was a breeze. Thank you Ray for a great car purchase experience. read more

We drove 90 minutes to see a car he had. Ray the owner was awesome. I was so impressed by his honesty. No hassle No pressure.Great selection of very nice used autos. It was our best ever experience with a car dealer. Thanks Ray !!!!!!We highly recommend you stop by and check him out. Always good to go buy local. read more

Ray sold my vehicle to someone else :(. My wife and I were very impressed with how clean and tidy Ray kept both his cars and his shop. He was flexible with us, allowed us to take a test drive and made us feel valued. We especially appreciated that he wasn't rushing us to make a decision. He specifically put me at ease when he told me he'd be away from his shop from Wed-Sun (due to unusual circumstances), but if he wasn't there, the car would remain available. Despite his reassurance, my wife messaged him the next day to remind him of our desire to purchase the car. Then, after texting him on Saturday he told us he sold the vehicle to someone else. Apparently, he thought we "were not interested" anymore. He also said that I misunderstood him. The least he could have done was let us know we had competition. I suppose business is business, but I'd prefer to purchase a vehicle from someone who keeps their word, and communicates clearly. read more
