The overall buying experience wasn't too bad and the vehicle I purchased is pretty much as…read moredescribed. The problem I have is that I was told when I bought the vehicle that the oil had been changed. When I got half way home the oil change indicator came on. I checked the oil and could tell that it hadn't been changed in a while, certainly not as I was told. This may not seem to be a big deal, but when you spend $11=k on a vehicle and come out of pocket with a down payment and then have to pay again to get the oil changed it's kind of a slap in the face. In addition, I have been waiting for a month for my title work to show up and it's still not here. I texted the sales person and was told I just might have to go get another temporary permit because it can take 45-60 days. This again is not what I was told when I bought the car and to be honest I don't know if it's even possible to get another temp permit and if it is that doesn't make it right because it takes time out of my schedule to go do that and I wasn't told this was going to happen. The salesman just told me that if I had an issue I could call and talk to management...Hmmmm, a little different attitude than when they were trying to get me to come buy a vehicle. The bottom line is that you need to verify anything you're told and double check to make sure it's accurate, before you buy, because after you buy the whole attitude changes.

Recently bought 3 cars for kids and grandkids. Of ALL the dealerships we visited, these guys were…read moreeasily the most direct, straight up people we worked with. Their inventory is not that deep, but the prices are fair in this market and they'll bargain if you're offering cash. They do tell you what their real price is, they don't push you into monthly payments or "special opportunities." Their cars all actually have fluid in the wipers and appropriately filled oil and anti-freeze, which is TRUTHFULLY-not the rule for many!! IF they have the car you're looking for and IF you understand you're buying a used car, these guys are as good or BETTER than MOST! We bought one from these guys, one from a small dealer on the same side of the street a little ways away and a third from a dealer on the North Side of Sprague and we'd trade with them and WILL trade with them again. Certainly not a showroom of a factory dealer, but they're fair, and they were honest with us and our kids and their kids!

It was a happy coincidence that you opened your business across the street from where I live and I saw the car that I needed at a price better than I would have expected. The great part was that I didn't even have to negotiate you down on the price. It was already marked at a wholesale price...I know because I was a buyer for a used car dealership in Yakima for about 3 years. You are a man of character trying to provide a good future for your young son. I especially liked hearing him talk about how he helped you design your business cards. That was very cool and it made me happy that I could help support that. I wish you the best of luck and I know who I'm going to call for my next vehicle. Kodi Mather

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS DEALERSHIP! IF I COULD RATE THEM…read moreNEGATIVE I WOULD ! I had an absolutely horrible experience with this company. I bought a car from them, and within one day, it completely stopped working. They immediately blamed the alternator -- without even inspecting the car -- and claimed to have fixed it. Remind you they swore the car had been safety inspected and was in great condition... When I went to pick it up, I didn't even make it five minutes down the road before it broke down again. I had to pay for towing out of pocket twice, and once more they said the alternator was the issue (which was supposedly just fixed!). They again told me the car was now "safe and reliable." That couldn't have been further from the truth. Less than three weeks later, the car completely died again, and now they're refusing to cover any mechanic fees. On top of that, they won't answer phone calls or respond to texts -- totally unprofessional. I'm now being forced to take legal action against this dealership just to get some accountability. I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone. This isn't even 1/2 of what has been wrong. Save yourself the stress, money, and legal trouble -- do NOT buy a car from this place.

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS AUTO DEALER. I purchased a vehicle from them in August 2024. I was…read moretold I would have my title and plates in about two months. When those two months came and passed I called asking for an update. after confirming my information I was informed that the person who handled their titles was out of the office. This was the beginning of over a year of calling them and receiving the same run around. He was always out of office. I even asked what hours he would be in and called at the appropriate time only to be told the same spiel. I live an hour and a half away and after six months of getting the run around I went in and all they did was offer to give me fresh temporaries. This was only a bandaid for a wound that needed stitches. Soon after I was able to get in touch with their title person who, I found out, was one of the owners. He gave me more excuses about how there was a hold up with the DOL. I waited patiently for another six months before finally being beyond fed up and filed a complaint with the Washington DOL. I was then pointed towards filing a claim against their dealership bond. It was only after I filed a claim against their dealership bond that they got me my title and plates, two days after they had been contact by the bond. What this tells me is that they had the ability to get me my title and plates before this due to the speed at which they were able to acquire them when they were threatened with financial liability by the bond agency. In the end, I received my title and plates in Feburary of 2026. This was beyond unacceptable. I have never written a bad review but have been so incensed by the entire ordeal that I felt it was my duty to inform others before they make the same mistake I did by doing business with this auto dealership. Believe it or not, this is the spark notes of the entire process I was forced to go through to use the vehicle I had purchased.

Cannot warn you to stay away enough…read more I am now $20k into a $10k car I bought there. Sold me a Subie that they had "done all the work" that needed to be done at 200k miles. Headers, gaskets, etc. Had to take the car back in within a week because it wouldn't shift into gear from park properly. It wouldn't accelerate from a stop appropriately and would just shut itself off while idling at a stop light or sign. They supposedly got it in and said it was a sensor issue and "fixed it". (Remember that for later) Then the car dropped all its oil and seized up within months of it being purchased. They insisted it was my fault. So the "insurance plan" they sold me for another $800 wasn't going to be any good either. (Even if the oil wasn't checked in 3 months' time.... which it WAS... it shouldn't have vanished within a few months of having the engine overhauled). Of course, they offered to replace the engine, if I paid them for it. So, it sat on their lot while I found a REPUTABLE mechanic to look at it. Once I had found the best garage in town for Subarus, they wouldn't even put the car on their trailer to take it to the shop, I had to pay for the tow off their lot. And that sensor issue they "fixed"? The mechanic said all the warning lights I took it back to them to check was because someone did a quick fix by jamming/bypassing the sensor. Literally, the WORST car purchasing (or mechanic) experience I have ever had. Ric (salesperson) was rude and felt comfortable swearing around my wife and son. Should have been my first red flag. I just thought he was trying to be "buddy buddy". Nope, turns out "Skeezy salesperson" is a stereotype for a reason. Stephanie started scolding me on the phone when I called and was upset with the weeks of delay that involved all these issues. YOU MUST AVOID THIS CAR LOT AT ALL COSTS.

I have bought used cars privately, but you never hear anything good about used car lots. I have to say now I would send anyone to River City and trust they would get a solid car and a fair price. I worked with Todd (the dad) and Chris (the son), but mostly Todd. My wife and I first went to look at a Land Rover they had and Todd waited till we got off work to take a look. We liked it but wanted to shop around. There was no pressure, Todd talked us through some repairs he had done and was transparent. We looked in every west coast date and Idaho and Montana for the specific mode we wanted to compare to the one Todd was selling. In the mean time, I asked mechanics and other people I knew around town what they knew of thought of River city auto. I heard great, positive things from everyone. I even messaged people who had left reviews previously to see how their cars were years later, and they all still had positive things to say (I'm pretty thorough). After a few weeks, we went back to Todd and sent the Land Rover he was selling in for pre-purchased inspection at a very reputable mechanic for this type of car. Everything Todd said was fixed was indeed fixed and the car came back with a glowing inspection. I brought Todd cash and he did all the paperwork. Todd even had a good recommendation for getting a great deal on tires in town. River City Auto is the only used car lot I would recommend in Spokane! Thank you Todd and Chris, I just might have to get another car from you all just for the fun.
