Came in to North State Auto to upgrade from my Mazda 3 to something a bit nicer and faster. After much research and help from Thomas, Tim, and David, I finally settled on a beautiful 2015 Lexus RCF. Car is in perfect condition, clean, and fast. Their team helped me with my trade, and got me into this beautiful car! Thank you guys!

I bought a car from North State Auto in Nov. 2016. Less than 2 months later, the car started having problems. And it hasn't stopped since. I paid $27,000 for a 2011 Land Rover. A "great deal" the sales guy said. I've spend almost 10k on repairs and maintenance but mostly, on diagnostic work. Trying to figure out why it won't pass a smog test(??). I can't renew the registration without a smog and without a current registration, I can't drive it. So I bought another car. The Land Rover just sits there. I still owe 8k on it so I pay $330 a month for a car that I can't drive and don't feel right selling to any decent human being. FML....I think the fair thing to do would be for them allow me a trade or a partial refund of some sort.

Penny test.  My 1 day old truck fails on every tire.

I bought a 2019 Ford Ranger with 32,000 from this business. The buying process was quick and easy. The service was spectacular. Maurice was awesome. However, the next day after buying my truck it started to rain and I noticed it seriously lacked traction. Shame on me, this is the first time I examined the tires. Turns out they were extremely worn. I'm no expert, but I used the penny test as my basis for measurement. It failed the penny test on every tire. I called North State Auto and they informed me it's company policy to not replace tires unless they are below 4/32. I decided to have the truck independently evaluated at a tire store. They rated my tires at 3,3,3,4. They also informed me it starts to become unsafe driving on tires with such low tread. 2 is the CalTrans LEGAL limit. North State Auto sold me a car with tire tread that was only 1mm over the legal limit. Yes, it's technically over the legal limit, but it's that tread depth is still not exactly considered safe by any tire expert. I called North State Auto again the next day to inform them of the safety hazard. They informed me at this point that it is company policy not to replace any tires at 3 or higher. They told me they would get me new tires at the company discounted rate. And they would install them for me for free. I'm so disappointed to be forced to buy 4 new tires 3 days after I bought the truck. I feel stupid for not checking, but I also feel ripped off. On a side note...I've currently been at North State Auto now for over 2hrs and 40mins waiting for them to change 4 tires.... The car sales experience is wonderful. But beware of the shop department. I would have your vehicle independently evaluated for safety before purchasing. If they cut corners on something so obvious as tire tread, who knows what they're allowing to pass their inspections under the hood. The safety standards are the very bare minimum here

I bout a truck from this place. I live in perris ca between riverside and Temecula. I drove 7 hrs to pick up the truck that's how good the deal was. Garen and Tim were great, we did go back and forth but not like other dealers. They were not pushy and the deal was made over the phone. When I go there the truck looked better than the pictures that were posted. I was in and out in an hour. Really happy I found this place. The drive was worth the deal that I got. I would definitely buy from them again.

See all

He was really effective in…read morefinding a good deal, arranging everything with the dealer on my behalf, answering my many probably annoying questions, and setting up a clean otd price. Throughout it all, I appreciated that Jeremy was knowledgeable, no-bs, patient, and responsive. I never had to communicate with the dealer at all, until I showed up at the dealership for my test drive, where the salesman had all the paperwork ready to go. From test drive arrival to leaving the dealer with my new car, it only took 2 hours, which feels pretty efficient. I don't really understand how Jeremy gets paid because he didn't charge me for anything, but I'm so glad I found him.

In one sentence: VIP CAR BUYING EXPERIENCE. (Excuse the…read morecaps, I want to emphasize how great it was. ) By now, Jeremy helped us buy two cars! One for ourselves and one for our friends. Both experiences were delightful, stress free (who would associate stress-free when you buy a car?) and quick. No hassle car buying - that should be his business's title. He helped us narrow down the list of cars we were looking at and make a decision that worked for us. He also scheduled all the test drives, negotiated the prices, and pointed us to a specific person at the dealership, a complete VIP experience. He did the same for our friends just this week, they bought a great car in a great condition, he negotiated the price down and steered them away from less desirable options. My friend was nervous (just like I was before ) because the process of buying a car is stressful. But after they got into the dealership and the car was waiting for them, they test drove and bought the car. My friend said: who would have thought that I can enjoy buying a car! And that's all thanks to Jeremy. Believe me I'm not hyping him up, he is professional, kind and customer centric. Thank you Jeremy!

The transaction went very smoothly with Chris. We have nothing bad to say about Chris but highly regards to his friendly personality and honesty. We never feel any pressure or uneasy like some other car dealers. Just in three days our car arrives to our house. We would highly recommend this place to any used car buyers out there. Again thank you Chris, your dad Steve and definitely your buddy Nicole. Chris if you read this comment. You should treat your buddy Nicole and your Dad to a fine dining steak house.
