$40,000 vehicle story. Do not do business with this place. An absolute bottom of the barrel dealer…read more They will lie to you every step of the way to sell a trash vehicle they claim is tip-top. They buy vehicles from auction that look good at first glance but are absolute wrecks. They will tell you they are reviewed by professional mechanics and are top-notch...they aren't. This is basically a dirtbag used car dealer with nice salespeople. Then comes finance. Guy tells me they have a new system no one understands. Printed out an 84 month finance sheet and tried to get me to sign it after I made it clear I agreed to a 72 month term. Then the guy sells me a warranty, tells me it's a four year bumper to bumper warranty, but again his computer is messed up and can't show me the terms of the warranty. I come back a month later to get the terms sheet and it's a worthless drivetrain warranty. Well, they screwed me again. A month later after putting almost no miles on the vehicle, I find out they sold it with faulty brakes. They won't pay to fix them. The latest issue is I find out that it has the rust of a 20 year old vehicle and it's only four years old. Again, they buy trash vehicles from auction, lie to you about the condition, make their money and move on. DO NOT BUY FROM YHIS PLACE. Also, the pre collision sensor is broken. Their top-notch mechanic seemed to miss this as well. Oh, did I mention this was a $40,000 vehicle?

Stay away. Just stay away. Untrustworthy business. I even spoke to a mechanic who used to work…read morefor them and he said that they only fix what's immediately visible for test drives and they don't touch any long term fixes that they see. I purchased a vehicle from them end of July 2023 and within less than a week I've put over $400 into the vehicle and I have another appointment with my garage for August 17th because I am now having engine issues. They sold me a car with illegal treaded tires so I needed to purchase 3 new tires. On my drive home from the dealership my check engine light went on, so they did replace 2 CO2 censors (which seems to be a common occurance with them if you check reviews) but they did not give me any paperwork to prove it was done. My car had been totaled by a drunk driver and by the time my insurance paid me I only had one day before my rental was due back. After visiting 15 different dealerships, Lakeside was the only one left. I was upfront about the amount I could spend and I was told by the sales manager, Ethan, that he had a 2012 Kia Soul in my price range. I test drove it and liked it and then I'm informed it's actually 4k above what I can spend (14k for a 2012 soul? Really?). I got them down to $10,800, which was still above what I could do. After signing the paperwork, one of which stated that the windshield would be replaced due to a spider-webbing crack all the way across the front windshield, I left the dealership. I was told by Monday afternoon the car would be detailed and windshield replaced. I call that afternoon and was told the car was ready. They did NOT clean the car (dirt, dust, hair, smelly) and the windshield wasn't fixed. I was told the windshield would be fixed the next day, then I was told Wed, then I was told the replacement windshield broke so it would be the following Tuesday, then I was told Thursday. I've now received zero communication from the business or the person who is to replace the windshield. I also have yet to receive copies of the paperwork I signed and have requested it be mailed to me, but, again, no response. This is a shady AF business and I really hope people read these reviews to learn, unlike me.

I had a similar experience but resolved it to my satisfaction after constant and daily pestering them and filing a complaint with the BBB. It seems to me that if this company was honest and upfront with it's customers and avoided the appearance of being shady, they would be so much more successful. Happy customers are return customers. Some shady companies are successful for awhile but eventually it catches up to them. In any sales business, word of mouth is everything and reputation is everything. Being honest and open and not taking advantage of customers goes a long way.

We're so glad we…read moreworked with him, and we were very impressed with his abilities, his manner, and his skillfulness. We were referred to Joe by an elderly woman who was a dear friend of our family. She was French, and was a child during World War Two. Her father was arrested by the Nazis, and she and her mother had to live on the streets as refugees. It was a terrible experience. Years passed, she married a young American soldier and came to the USA. I'm not sure how she found Joe, but she trusted him. When a woman who has been through so much trusts somebody, you trust them, too. We trust Joe, and our trust has been repaid many times over by his helpful attitude, his support, and his knowledge of cars, and loans, and all the business related to choosing and buying an automobile. He's so friendly, but he's so very smart, too. It's a great combination, and that has been a tremendous benefit to us. We've bought two cars with Joe's assistance, and both times the experience was pleasant - even fun! Most of all, both cars were wonderful. We strongly recommend Joe Scandaliato, and feel sure that anyone who goes to him will be very happy with the result.

Phil Long Ford of Chapel Hills 1565 Auto Mall Loop…read moreColorado Springs, Co 80920 While traveling to Colorado Springs in our Ford Transit van on I-70, we hit a rough patch in the road that triggered a steering warning light--and suddenly, we had no power steering. Our plan had been to spend the night in Colorado Springs and head back to Georgia the next day, so this was an unexpected and stressful situation. We went to Phil Long Ford and were immediately helped by Bailey Gifford, a Service Advisor who came out to meet us at the van. She brought us inside, helped us get everything checked in, and clearly explained the process. Although she mentioned that scheduled appointments are typically prioritized, she truly understood our situation and the urgency of our travel plans. Before we even left the service desk, Bailey reassured us that she would communicate our predicament to the technicians. That alone gave us a sense of relief. As we walked through the building toward our ride, my wife commented, "It's too bad we got a ride--this place is really nice!" And she was right. The facility is large, clean, bright, and very welcoming, with a comfortable seating area and spotless restrooms. It made a strong impression. Shortly after we dropped off the van, Bailey sent me a text letting me know I could reach her anytime during the service. We've never experienced that level of communication before. It may seem like a small gesture, but for a customer, it makes a huge difference. Being able to send a quick text instead of making a call is incredibly convenient and reassuring. A few hours later, I texted Bailey for an update. She promptly checked with the technician and responded that everything had been inspected and the van was ready--no additional services needed. We picked up the van just hours after dropping it off, and after driving a couple thousand miles since then, the power steering is working perfectly. We are now home after a beautiful trip. Thank you, Bailey Gifford, for your professionalism, kindness, and for helping us stay on schedule while giving us real peace of mind. And thank you to Phil Long Ford for employing such friendly and knowledgeable people. You've earned our trust and our recommendation.
