I had recently purchased a car from here about a month ago and got a call last Tuesday that the new plates were in, went there yesterday 8/26/25 to pick them up and the whole place was shut down. Now I'm worried that I won't get my plates. No idea what happened. read more

Mendoza's Auto Sales - Car Dealers Near Me - Modesto, California

They closed abruptly never paying our taxes registration and fees with the dmv so we can't get plates til we pay almost $4,000.00 that was already included in the price of the vehicle so it should have been paid by them. They took our money and we can't even legally drive the car. read more

I had the pleasure to work w Kevin and Veronica, as soon as I pulled into the parking lot and settled in, Kevin politely greeted us and gave us our space to look around and decide . He was very patient and helpful, listened to what we were looking for and definitely pointed us to the right direction . Veronica in financing was very sweet, and kind . It was great vibes all around . Best part of it all, they dealt w my wild toddlers all over the place and didn't make me feel stressed out about not being able to control them running . As a mother it's hard going anywhere w my 2 yr old & my 3 yr old without people giving me crazy looks or making me feel uncomfortable . Mendoza Auto Sales will definitely be an amazing dealership to work w and I recommend it to anyone in the area looking for a affordable car or truck . read more

I cant say enough good things about this car lot and the employees. Buying a car is scary, but they really made it a nice experience. Very nice well maintained cars. I dealt with Kevin and highly recommend him if you're in the market for a used vehicle. He told me if i have any issues to let him know and he would take care of it, and he meant that. Im extremely happy with the overall experience and absolutely LOVE my truck! read more

Such a good place to buy a car!!!

Also the the lady' that helped us with the paper work was so nice. & explained everything. read more

we bought a car for my son and it broke down on the freeway after three and half months after purchase. they stated that the car was in good shape and inspected and certified , when the car got inspected by a friend that works at a shop and the infinity dealer they found lots of faulty parts. tons of services the car needed and no record of any services done for years. now they washing their hands and not wanting to take responsibility for it. read more

Kevin was a great salesman to work with. Very honest and knowledgeable. Veronica was also great to work with on the transactional side. This is the only legit auto dealership I would recommend on Crows Landing Rd. read more

I would like to say, my experience here was amazing. My sales man was Kevin. He was polite professional and not at all pushy. I told him I what I needed and what i was looking to do and he made it all happen. Hot me financed with a great rate and no money down and still kept the payment where I needed. Then to top it off they detailed the car for me, delivered it to me and gave me a 30 day 1000 mile warranty. All the staff I met there were kind and friendly. I had to leave during the middle of signing the papers due to a family event I had forgotten about and they totally understood and held all the paperwork for me until the next day where I then returned to finish signing. I mean who does that? They risk you not coming back. But these guys were great. Now why not the five stars? I told them I would be sending my nephew in to look at a Kia soul, not sure what happened because I wasn't with him but they didn't even let him test drive a car. Which was their loss because he wound up buying a BMW at Prestige auto sales on McHenry where he had a good experience just wish he could of got the should he wanted here. But other than that my experience was great and I highly recommend this dealer and ask for Kevin! read more

If you are looking to purchase a vehicle I would highly recommend Mendoza's Auto Sales.

He made sure to explain everything thoroughly and offer the best deal to fit my needs. I am very happy with my car and happy with the service they have provided!!! read more

Great experience haven't shopped for a vehicle in a while, especially at a car dealer ship! Special thanks to Mendoza's employees and especially, Adrian. read more

First of all, I am writing this review because Mendoza's Auto sales is a scam. I bought my truck 7 months ago. There was never a problem until about a month ago. I thought nothing of it because the check engine light didn't turn on and it wasn't nothing major, the truck would ever so slightly jerk when I would step on it. Recently the transmission gave out on a trip to San Diego. I'm no mechanic nor expert but how does a transmission give out in less than a year on a truck that according to them was well maintained and they had checked everything before selling? I tried to get help from them and they said it was my problem and I had to pay out of pocket. I don't think it's fair that I have to pay basically a new transmission for a truck that I am financing! Scammers to the fucking Max!! They knew this truck had a bad transmission and still sold it. I only drive to work & back. Sometimes grocery shopping so I barely drive let alone make my motor and transmission work hard. This is bullshit and I do not recommend to come here. Unless you want to pay for a new transmission out of pocket and still finance over 25k for the truck. read more

This place is the most dishonest dealership around. The experience we had with not only the manager Robert but with the salesman Kevin and also the finance guy Adrian were all poor we found them to be dishonest and deceitful. When we found some issues with the car they said they fixed them and wanted to add the repair cost to the vehicle we were trying to buy. They also said that the car had a major oil leak and they weren't willing to sell it to us but yet they put it back on the lot at a higher price than what the sticker said when we were gonna buy it. Don't buy anything from this dealership. If there was less than one star I would have put that. ... read more

Mendoza's Auto Sales - Here is the vehicle that they say still has an oil leak, I wouldn't buy from them, they are liars. - Car Dealers Near Me - Modesto, California

One of the best car sales experiences I've had. Usually, salesman push sales on me and lose my interest. I was helped by Kevin. He was understanding of my requirements for a car, and was able to show me cars that I liked. I wanted to trade in my car and he facilitated that procedure and it all went smoothly. I will be coming back to Kevin and Mendoza's again for future purchases. read more

If you think there was NO WAY, come here to Mendoza's and ask for Kevin.....He did EVERYTHING to try and help make our dream of being car owners COME TRUE. These people are not just car salesmen, they are real people that actually care about their customers and contributing to making dreams come TRUE. The deals are literally THE BEST in town.......because we shopped around, and STILL Mendoza's offered the best deal. That was their goal........Kevin made us feel like family, not just another "deal" I recommend this place to all walks of life! Thank you Kevin and Mendoza's for OUTSTANDING customer service!! Make sure to ask for Kevin! read more

Kevin was very helpful, he also explained our options to finance and a breakdown. Was very sensitive to our needs. We are very happy with our purchase and will definitely recommend Mendoza's Auto Sales to our friends and family. read more

I walked into Mendoza's, expecting to encounter another shark of a salesman who cared more about making money, than helping me meet my needs. Instead, I was met with Kevin Garcia. He was extremely professional in showing me around the lot, as well as going through all of the available options with me. Kevin was beyond helpful, understanding, and above all, is an outstanding guy! Although I no longer live in Modesto, I will definitely be making the trip to see Kevin at Mendoza's, for any future transactions. read more

Went and looked at a Jeep Wrangler. Took it on a test drive. I asked the salesman where I should go because I'm not from around the area. He said just drive out the street and turn right. I will be on the freeway and can test it out. Couldn't get on the road due to 5pm traffic so I tuned around and went down some other roads. After starting Jeep, check engine light came on and so did the air bag light. No gauges were working. I drove down the road and lights went out and gauges started working. Put it in 4 wheel drive high and drove for a short time. Took it off the street on a dirt area not far from dealership. Put it in 4 wheel low. Transmission slipped and made all sorts of noises. I tried multiple times to get it back into 2 high. It would not go into gear. I decided to at least keep it in 4 high if I could get it to stay in that gear. Nope just slips back into neutral. I tried putting Jeep back into park and see what I could do. Now tranny is grinding as it goes back into park. I was about to call the dealership to have them come pick up this Jeep and me. Tried one last time and got it to stay in 4 high. Took it slowly back to the dealership. I told the salesman about it and he said "oh, ok we will have the shop look at it". I walked with him to look at a blue Jeep. Just had a bad feeling about this place. So I decided to just call it a day looking and leave. As I go back to my truck I see a guy in the red jeep and he is still having a problem putting it in 2 high. I told him about it and he said yeah this has a problem. Instead of driving towards the freeway I went the other way to see what other dealers were around. I didn't go very far before I turned around to head back to the freeway. As I pass by Mendoza's again, you guessed it. The Jeep did not go to the shop to be looked at, it was right back on the lot to be sold. Do not trust these people. I know I was taught if I have nothing to say nice about someone, don't say anything. The problem is this company is going to dump all those problems on some poor soul who won't think or try to change through the gears. I hope this helps anyone looking at the Red Jeep Wrangler not be taken to the cleaners with a bad vehicle. read more
