invoice of 8000 in repairs

"STAY FAR AWAY - This Dealership Sold Me a Wreck and Lied About It" If I could give ZERO stars, I would. Freehold Mitsubishi is a complete scam operation that should be investigated and shut down. They sold me a Mercedes-Benz with a fake sense of security -- claiming it was in good condition and backed by a 30-day warranty. Within HOURS, the check engine light came on, followed by a flood of major issues: Cylinder misfire Traction control failure EVAP leak Blind spot system failure Oil leakage and computer damage They kept the car for weeks at a time, passed it off to another shop, and gave me false promises that it was fixed. When I got it back, it was in even worse condition. My attorney sent a legal demand letter, and they ignored it entirely. No refund. No accountability. No ethics. This place is the textbook definition of consumer fraud. And just as shady -- they are deleting negative reviews to hide how many people they've screwed over. It's disgusting. I've already filed complaints with the New Jersey Attorney General, Consumer Affairs, BBB, FTC, and media outlets. Mitsubishi Corporate has also been notified. DO NOT buy a car here unless you want to be deceived, ignored, and stuck with thousands of dollars in damage. They lie. They ghost you. They don't care.

Dishonest dealership, had to get cops involved! SENT letter to Attorney General Matthew Platkins and submit complaint to BBB. I called twice on Friday, December 13th, at 3:50 PM and 4:38 PM to confirm the availability of a 2018 black Toyota RAV4 I saw on CarGurus. I spoke with Tiffany, who assured me the car was available and would be ready for my 7 PM appointment. She even mentioned a white Toyota, but I declined due to its high mileage. Based on her assurance both times, my mom & I drove over 1 hr & 20 to the dealership. Upon arriving at 6:50 PM, I waited over 30 minutes, only to find the car wasn't there. The salesperson, George, started calling their "sister dealership" to locate it. He eventually said it was only two miles away. I suspected they were trying to sell us the white Toyota instead. Ten minutes later, George confirmed they didn't have the black Toyota but offered the white one. We said no & I asked when the black one was sold, and he claimed 2 days ago. When I asked for proof of the sale, he acted frantic. It took awhile to check for the "proof of sale". This other tall guy in a plaid long jacket walked over to me around 7:43 PM with a piece of paper with the "proof of sale." I told him, "Sorry, give me one minute," because I was on the phone calling the non-emergency number. He said okay, saw me on the phone, & folded the paper in half vertically. As I stepped outside to continue my call with the non-emergency line, I noticed the same document left on the counter. I explained everything & asked for an officer to come out. When the officer arrived, they agreed the dealership's actions were suspicious & advised me to leave a review and contact corporate. Officer was really emphatic. While talking to the officer, the guy in the plaid jacket pretended to be confused about why the police were there. Then another guy with a blue suit came out, pretending to be a manager. I'm thinking okay he's the Dwight Schrute of the office, so okay (Acting) Manager. He was acting shocked, & said, "OMG, what happened? Is everything okay?"--but with a nasty smirk on his face. I told him if he didn't know what happened, he shouldn't be out here. How was he the manager when he worked at the front desk & checked us in when we arrived at 6:50. The "acting manager" asked, "What time did you call?" I told him I called at 3:50 & 4:38 & spoke to Tiffany, who assured me that the vehicle would be ready for my 7 PM appointment. Then he was like, "What? It is now 8:20, of course the vehicle is sold since you called at 4:38 PM." I told him we came at 6:50 PM, & HE checked us in. He got silent. At 6:50 pm we specifically told him we were there for the black RAV4. So if the vehicle was sold between 4:38 PM and 6:50 PM, why didn't he say anything as soon as we arrived? Also, wasn't the car at the "sister dealership"? The cop and I just looked at each other. He tried to claim the car was sold between 4:38 PM and 6:50 PM, despite George already printing out the paper stating it was sold two days ago. The "acting manager" denied knowing about the sales paper that was previously trying to be shown to me, so I retrieved it from the counter. The document was printed before the cops got there & was meant for me to see. I opened the paper and saw it clearly said 2018 RAV4. He took it back & kept stating that it had customer's information on there, but he was trying to show me that SAME paper prior to the police showing up. This paper was obviously meant for me to see, but now that the cops were involved, they didn't want the officer to see it because it's 100% clear they are falsifying documents. They denied that they ever tried to show me a paper. I kept asking for them to go get the real manager but they didn't want to. When I asked to see camera footage, they claimed it wasn't accessible that night, an obvious attempt to avoid accountability. All in all, Mitsubishi Motors in Freehold is a fraudulent business that uses bait-and-switch tactics. Based on all the reviews, we are thankful that we never purchased from them. They responded to my review on Google "Unfortunately, there was a scheduling conflict, and another customer who had previously expressed interest in the vehicle was present at the time of your visit. As they were here first, we had to honor their priority on the purchase. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and appreciate your understanding. Please let us know if there's anything else we can assist you with or if we can help you find a similar vehicle." Their response is completely dishonest and does not match what happened. I called the dealership twice on the same day--hours before my visit--and was repeatedly assured the vehicle was available and ready for my appointment. At no point did anyone mention another customer or any "priority on the purchase." This is not a case of a scheduling conflict--it's a clear example of deceptive practices.

I feel like I have car dealer friends now who have my back and think it's most important to do whatever it takes to make us customers happy keep up the great work and I can't say enough good things about this dealership and the staff who clearly cares enough to welcome me from bmw

Dear Mr. Hausnann,…read more This letter is to memorialize and request your written confirmation regarding the ongoing repairs to the infotainment system, navigation system through Apple CarPlay, rear camera viewing on such infotainment system, and the crackling of the speaker system. This vehicle described above was leased and picked up from Ray Catena Audi of Freehold on or about June 12, 2026. From the moment it was picked up we had issues with the phone connecting to the car and once connected disconnecting from Apple CarPlay while driving. This created an unsafe driving situation as when we were relying on the navigation while driving on the highway or New York City, the phone would disconnect and we would have no idea where we were going. Additionally, the screen would suddenly go dark while we were driving and the only way to get the screen back was to reset the system while driving. This also created a dangerous driving condition. Once the system rebooted, the phones would have to be reinstalled on to the system and every time the system would reboot, or we would get in the vehicle it was like "Ground Hog Day" with the system resetting and everything having to be reprogrammed. This also created a dangerous driving condition. Furthermore, the infotainment screen would be prone to just go dark and if we were in reverse, we could not longer use the rear camera while going in reverse. Yet another dangerous driving condition. I called the dealer to complain on several occasions and spoke to Jack Scribellito who walked me through several steps to try and troubleshoot the system. When it could not be corrected an appointment was made for service of the vehicle. On Friday, August 14, 2026, a representative from Ray Catena drove to my house and dropped off a loaner car, a 2026 Audi Q3, for us use and took the above vehicle to Ray Catena service to have the system corrected. On or about August 18, 2026, I spoke to Billy Hausnann, our service representative, who told me that the issue was more complicated than expected and that it required the matter to be upgraded for Audi corporate in Germany as only they could fix the programming which needed to be repaired. I was told that this should be done within a day or two. On Friday, August 21, 2026, I again called Billy Hausnann (twice) and was told that they still had not heard from Audi in Germany and that it could take some time. I must add that in describing their attempts to get in touch with Audi in Germany, I was told that it is not easy as they are "far away". Now last I checked, getting in touch with Europe is not like getting in touch with a remote part of Antarctica. I was told to keep the loaner car through the weekend and that it should be fixed by Monday, August 24, 2026, or Tuesday, August 25, 2026. It is now Tuesday, August 25, 2026, and having not heard from Billy Hausnann, I decided to call him. I was told he was out to lunch, and he would call me later. By copy of this email, I would also request to be provided with the address of Audi Corporate so I can get my certified letter prepared and ready to send to them. To say this vehicle and the response of Ray Catena Audi of Freehold is a disappointment would be a total understatement. Prior to leasing this Audi I had five Infiniti vehicles and the only time they were brought in for service was when it was a regular maintenance service. We are now on day twelve (12) of this vehicle being in for service and there is still no answer on when or how the vehicle will be repaired. I intend to post this letter today and update every day on each website I can warning people about the Audi Q3 and the lack of responsiveness from this dealership. As I previously stated I have leased five Infiniti vehicles from a Ray Catena dealership and this level of service is an embarrassment to his name and legacy.

I would like to take this opportunity to express our delight with the wonderful service we recently…read morereceived when leasing our new 2015 GMC Acadia from Freehold Buick GMC in February 2015. These days, it is not often that a sales person goes the extra mile to ensure a client's piece of mind and satisfaction. It is an absolute pleasure dealing with Jeff Morrissey, but I am a little biased having known Jeff for many years. Jeff took every measure to ensure that my experience was impeccable from start to finish. I have dealt with countless dealerships in my past in my hunt for a new automobile. Unfortunately, the majority of them were useless. Typically, they would arrive at a point where they stopped answering my questions, or I knew more about the product than the sales person I was dealing with at the time. From my first contact with Jeff, to dealing with Sales Manager, Gary Louis, to finalizing the deal with Rich Bishop in Finance -- a First Class Act! It is GREAT to know there are some companies that still believe in EXCELLENT Client Service. I have no doubt that we will once again return to Freehold Buick GMC when we are ready to renew my other lease. Once again it was a pleasure doing business with your company and I know the relationship we have developed with Jeff and your company will be a longstanding one. Sincerely, Joseph D. DeVito

This review is based on text messages, signed paperwork, invoices, photographs, and records I…read moreretained throughout the process. I brought my 2019 Buick LaCrosse to Freehold Buick GMC for a transmission concern. On May 4, 2026, Service Advisor Carmen Semenza told me the service contract claim had been denied. I clearly declined the transmission replacement and said I wanted my vehicle returned. My vehicle remained at the dealership for 31 days. On May 8, Carmen told me the transmission had already been disassembled, described broken parts in a tray, and said there was no guarantee the vehicle could be put back together. When I inspected the car the next day, the transmission appeared to still be installed. The driveshaft had been removed, exhaust components had been cut or disconnected, and a replacement transmission was under the vehicle. What I observed did not appear consistent with what I had been told. On May 12, Service Manager Bill Marter told me I was financially responsible because the replacement transmission had already been ordered and could not be returned. I repeatedly requested the written policy, authorization records, and documentation supporting that position. I was never provided with them. When I tried to escalate my concerns, Bill told me that he did not report to the General Manager. My requests for dealership ownership to review the matter also went unanswered. This left me with serious concerns about accountability and where a customer can turn when a major service dispute occurs. I also received multiple missed completion dates and inconsistent explanations throughout the process. The original signed agreement stated that the exhaust and transmission would be installed for $4,000 plus tax. At the last minute, however, I was told the amount was a "deductible." When I picked up the vehicle, the final invoice instead listed a "Misc. Charge" and referred to a GM claim and deductible. I do not have a GM service contract. My contract was through a non-GM third-party provider. No GM pre-approval was attached to the invoice, and no New Jersey sales tax was charged even though the signed agreement stated $4,000 plus tax. I was never given a satisfactory explanation for why the description of the charge, the contract classification, and the tax treatment changed. After 31 days, I paid the amount demanded to regain possession of my vehicle. I do want to thank Anthony, who treated me professionally, listened to my concerns, and helped move the process toward finally getting my car returned. My advice to other customers is to get every authorization, estimate, coverage decision, parts order, charge, deductible, and cancellation policy in writing before allowing major work to proceed. Based on my experience, I would not return to Freehold Buick GMC for service.
