Dina at the entrance
Deanna W.

Short story: Yes, I recommend these guys and it was well worth going to East County for my "new" used vehicle, and most noteworthy, the salesperson Dina, who made the process smooth, friendly, and efficient and did not trigger me at all! Long story: What do I mean trigger me? Lemme tell you--I hate high-pressure sales! Most people just find it annoying, but I have some kind of allergic reaction to it when it strikes me as overly manipulative or even like some form of bullying. Maybe because a couple of my first jobs were in sketchy sales (Cutco Knives anyone?--I lasted a whole week!). So yeah, I have kinda gone-off on sales people in the past. I'm not proud of this, it isn't comfortable for anyone, me, the salesperson, or my spouse, hehe... And with the old trope about the used-car salesman, I did a good job just avoiding the dealerships completely. But, with no current hand-me-down vehicles from family available, and my old car deemed a total loss-- I guess it was finally time to get on with what everyone else does as competent adults and just go and buy a car already! My strategy in dealing with myself and the car-buying process was to research online first. This actually worked out better than I would have thought. I used the truecar website link my insurance (Hartford) sent. It had a solid search function, and I was able to get a good sense of what was available in my area, the history and price of different vehicles, and a general sense of how much the taxes and fees would be (and therefore what could be a reasonable amount to negotiate/expect to pay out the door). In this way I was able to pre-shop around for cars, and educate myself on what would be a fair price. None of this is probably new to you experienced car buyers out there, but I think it could be very helpful to some of you, if you are a young or older newbie like myself. Anyway, the car I was interested in was at East County Pre-Owned Car Superstore, and so I arranged to go out there, meet Dina, and go for a test drive. Like anyone practicing new "adulting" skills, I brought my mom along! Well, she drove me, then played a quietly supportive wingman as I got on with the car-buying process. Dina, the salesperson, was easygoing and personable, and I thought she struck a nice balance of being helpful and leading the process forward without pressure. Um, as a side note about salespeople... yes, I tend to avoid them if that is an option, but I also have a dear friend who happens to be a very successful salesperson, and I have had positive experiences with salespeople too. What I've come to realize is that sales, at it's best, is a win-win situation, one in which the price is fair for both parties, and the salesperson helps you find and purchase a quality product that they believe in, you want, and that will serve you well. I feel like Dina is this kind of salesperson. Car shopping/buying takes time and energy to figure out, and I if you're like me you will need to do your homework online first. And if the car you want is in their lot, Dina is someone I wholeheartedly recommend to help you through the process. I came back to the dealership a few days after buying my car so they could replace a small piece of trim that was missing and they had ordered. Dina cheerfully snapped the new part on, and when I told her that the day before, my husband had already put a scratch on the car (he was so bummed and I was just happy it was him and not me:) she called her husband and asked him to come by and buff it out. He did, and made it look so much better! That was very nice, and very much in the spirit of wanting a happy customer even after the sale was made. Thanks to everyone who made it a positive experience for me, most especially you Dina, I'm digging my new car!

What can I say. My credit score was low and I wasn't sure anyone could help me get financing. Went into East County PreOwned and spoke with Aziz. He took the time to help me pick out a truck that met my needs. He found me financing and walked me through all the paperwork. Dealerships very honest and everyone went above and beyond. Great price on the truck! Thanks to all the team at East County for my great Ford F150. You guys rock!!! I highly recommend this dealership. I do want to mention all that helped me. Hope I didn't forget anyone. Aziz Pouria Manny Ray Great Team work. !!! Ken Harbison

Title: Dishonest and Sloppy - Do NOT Buy From This Dealership I purchased a van from East County Preowned Superstore, and the entire experience has been a nightmare. The vehicle was delivered dirty, with trash under the seats, a broken window knob, a non-functioning seatbelt, and all four tires cracked and dry-rotted. To top it off, I was only given one key with no fob -- none of this was disclosed up front. The rear cab AC makes a loud, concerning noise, and I was told the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) would be fixed -- but it wasn't. The TPMS warning light is still on, even after I followed up. When I asked why the van wasn't cleaned, I was told they don't detail commercial vehicles. That's absurd and unprofessional. This was also an out-of-state purchase, and I was promised the title and documents would be mailed immediately -- a week later, nothing had arrived, and I had to chase them down for updates. Bottom line: this dealership is careless, untrustworthy, and completely lacks follow-through. If you value safety, honesty, or customer service -- stay far away.

Ethan was a superstar!!! I needed someone who was going to be upfront and honest. Ethan was thorough and transparent and addressed my needs. He was efficient and made me feel valued. I enjoyed my experience at the El Cajon Superstore!!! Ask for Ethan and tell him T sent you.

Thanks, Ethan, for my 2020 Hyundai Elantra

I don't even know that you needed to get your tires rotated every so often so I ended up buying 4 new tires earlier this year due to them all being bald... ANYWAYS they took real good care of me there, I called when they opened and was told that they take walkins but it's also better to make an appointment just in case. Showed up, filled out some simple paperwork and was in and out within 2 hours. They explained to me with a break model showing me how bad they were and how my rotars had damage as well. After that conversation I requested to see the breaks and rotars that they had removed and he said yes. They were very low and barely there . When it was time to pay I asked if they had military discount and they do. They apply it to the service fee but the entire thing. Nice 10%. He also provided me a copy of my receipt and explained everything that was on it to me. He was very kind and patient. I wish I had his name, all I know is that he's bald and light skinned.

After calling a few different repair shops, I spoke with Amanda at Supreme Auto Repair. She was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, and her excellent customer service is what ultimately convinced me to bring my car in. When I arrived, I met Lejon, who was equally welcoming, attentive, and helpful. The pricing was very reasonable, and the service was excellent. After the repair, I noticed my emergency brake wasn't working properly, so I brought the car back. The team immediately took the time to inspect it and corrected the issue without any hesitation. It turned out to be a minor adjustment to the brake pads, and they handled it quickly and professionally. A special thanks to Mark for getting everything taken care of and making sure my car was working perfectly. It's clear that this team genuinely cares about their customers and stands behind their work. I highly recommend Supreme Auto Repair to anyone looking for honest, reliable service and exceptional customer care.

Their pricing was competitive compared to other quotes I received, and while the job wasn't completed especially quickly, the turnaround time was reasonable and within what I expected. The main reason I'm not giving 5 stars is that several of my gloss black lug nuts were heavily marred during the installation and will likely need to be replaced. My wheels and tires had been installed just two days earlier, and I specifically paid extra for those lug nuts, so it was frustrating to see them damaged almost immediately. The suspension work appears to have been done well, but I wish more care had been taken to protect the wheels and hardware during the process. Other than that, the experience was positive and I'd consider using them again.
