I did my research prior to coming in and I had my eyes on a set car and once I came in it wasn't exactly what I expected so I started browsing around. Thankfully they had plenty of options. Luckily Nate was there to help me out. Pretty chill laid back guy, he didn't rush trying to make a deal and didn't try to sweet talk me at all, pretty straight forward but helpful nonetheless. You can tell he sells cars on a daily. Unfortunately to get the car out the same day my credit union took a little longer than anticipated and Nate was patient enough to let us deal with that without rushing me or anything. He helped me set up the car and get everything ready and available to pick up the phone when I had questions after the purchase. No bs, no nonsense, just straight business. Don't even try to haggle they have no room for it. If you're trying to buy a vehicle and you're truly interested you'll get what you're looking for. read more

Worst dealership I've ever tried working with. Right off the bat TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! As if they're doing you a favor!???? They advertise great prices to lure in customers and then hit you with FORCED ADD ONS. Prior to going in person i thought the reviews were a bit dramatic but they were actually spot on and very accurate. Didn't purchase and good thing i didn't. read more

This is a sister store to the Norco location same owners. If Premium Autos told you that you had to buy a warranty or add-on to purchase your car, read this. I successfully got my money back, and others should know they may have options too. Important: Once a proper cancellation request is submitted, companies generally should process eligible refunds within a reasonable time. In many cases, 30 days is a fair deadline to demand written confirmation and refund processing. This is the blueprint I used: Step 1: Review your paperwork for add-ons such as: - Warranty - Paint protection - Interior/exterior package - Theft device - Service contract Step 2: Find the warranty company or administrator listed on the contract and email them directly. Example contacts I used: - cancellations@vtg-services.com - info@roadvantage.com Step 3: Send a written cancellation demand including: - Vehicle info - Purchase date - Amount charged - Contract/product name - VIN (last 6 digits only) - Statement that no claims were used Step 4: Include this key statement: "Premium Autos told me they could not sell me the vehicle unless I purchased this product." Step 5: Mention California Vehicle Code §11713.18 regarding optional products being misrepresented as mandatory. Step 6: State clearly: "Please process cancellation and refund within 30 days of this notice or I will file formal complaints." Step 7: If ignored, complaints may be filed with: 1. California DMV Investigations Division 2. California Attorney General 3. FTC 4. CFPB (if financing involved) 5. Local District Attorney Consumer Protection Step 8: Request written confirmation that: - Contract is cancelled - Refund is processed - Refund sent to lender if financed I was able to successfully get my money back. Keep everything in writing, stay professional, and act quickly. read more

Premium Autos - El Monte - PROOF IT WAS REMOVED! - Used Car Dealers Near Me - South El Monte, California

Deb needs to go. S$%t rolls downhill and shes at the tip of that crappy pyramid! The reason the rest of them have the attitude they do is because of her. They tell you incorrect information from the start, dont introduce themselves on the phone, you almost want to apologize for bothering them. Dont know if they have a parent company but they need to step in and discipline this out of control child! A-V-O-I-D OH! dont get fooled by their "wide selection" online, half those cars arew gone and not updated. And I dont know who these people are that wrote these wonderful reviews about them either, maybe employees or bots or something cause how this place even has two stars is beyond me read more

See all

Shady business practices, I'm already pre-qualified with CapOne and all good to go, but every vehicle they sale appears to be "clean Tittle" but 80% of the vehicles they sale are NOT. You'll find out while checking the vehicle history report, Most vehicles appear to be "severely damage". They list cars described as "zero miles" BUT when you check the history report vehicle has over 100K miles lol, how can this type of business continue to stay open? To the owner: The most important valuable asset your business should have is "TRANSPERANCY". Think about it, if you are NOT coming clean with honesty describing your vehicles from the get go, what's to be expected under the hood? read more

Hate writing negative reviews but this has to be done. Only giving this place one star because they had a car I wanted. Don't come to this dealer expecting to be educated or supported with learning about a car. Customer service horrible! 0 enthusiasm and seems like don't even care about you. They don't answer the phones or support you out in the lot. I would never come to this dealer if they didn't have the vehicle I was interested in. They didn't even wash or charge the vehicle for me. They also tried charging me extra for the mats in the vehicle so I left with no mats. Horrible experience and will never come here again. Only come here to purchase a car and just leave. Don't expect anything more than that. Once again. Horrible experience, would not recommend. They currently have a 2 star rating at the moment and which should be a 1 star honestly. I read the reviews before coming here and tried to be optimistic. But the negative reviews are accurate. The only difference is, this is a negative review coming from someone who brought a car. So it's not like I'm salty about not getting the price I want or the car I want. Genuinely they have horrible customer service. If you come here expecting customer service and support, you will have a bad time. If you are looking to buy a car you really want in like, you will be more likely happy and not notice the poor customer service. I purchased a car I really wanted and they made the experience horrible. I came on Friday and left with an OTD price. Came back Monday to purchase my vehicle for them to change the price again. 0 professionalism. They don't even care about the reviews or their rating, notice how not a single worker (manager) from this place responded to anyone's post. 0 care for their customers. Just buy a car and leave. read more

Bait and switch, online advertising is not accurate, I checked stock on the phone for two vehicles listed, both confirmed in stock. Made and appointment and was there in an hour. They told me they don't have anything matching description. read more

I went to inquire about a car I saw online and was never served properly. I had to search for someone in the office and when I asked about the car, he just handed me the keys and told me to let him know if I had any questions. I went to check out the car and was hoping to talk to someone, but because the guy who handed me the keys was busy, he told me to talk to the other guy. I walked outside, he walked right past me and I just ended up handing over the keys for lack of care and professionalism. I'm sad I have to keep searching for another car because I really wanted this one. read more

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. set an appointment to look at a vehicle and confirmed the appointment with them the night before. i drive over an hour and show up to the appointment and low and behold they sold the car the day before. I completely understand not getting a car because it sold, but what's unacceptable is confirming my appointment to see the car AFTER they already sold it or not notifying me before the 2 hour round trip. The days leading up to the appointment I tried several times to speak with a person but it's all AI. AI call takers and AI texting. you can't ever reach a person, the AI even says it has a name and that it's a manager through text. read more

Stay away from this place. They are scammers that try to rip you off any way possible. They post a low price online and once you go in the price is a few thousand dollars higher all of a sudden. Shady business tactics. People that work there should be ashamed of themselves. Unbelievable read more

I never write negative reviews but decided to write one for people to avoid wasting time. I went to this dealer and at the moment of arrival they don't greet you or even talk to you. The first guy just looked at me and then continued to browse his computer and the second did the same. I finally said hello and showed them the car I was interested on their website, and turns out they had none of them available. It was very uncomfortable and a waste of time for both the dealer and the customer :( Unfortunate read more

So they post of their website a Tesla for sale at 20999. This is after a 4k rebate and they require you to pay them a extra 2k for a useless theft insurance. They cost of care is really 26999. read more

Please avoid this place, the way ask me for down payment and he didn't wants to gives us receipt, I gave him $1000 Dlls and told him he didn't have any at the time and he didn't even put it in the contract, I called him and text him several times but he never answer the car don't let us put our info! No help, no receipt, no answer that is so unprofessional! I'm Going To Do Report Because he keep the money because he don't put any down payment in the receipt. read more

If you recently called and they are not answering their phone then yes stay away from this ! It makes absolutely no sense how bad the customer service is. Even if you are getting a lot of business, don't treat the customers like they are an inconvenience and they don't matter. They don't answer phone calls, emails, or text messages. Don't waste your time go to a dealership that will value you and try to work with you. read more

Arrived at the dealership and was done within a couple hours. Nathan helped us today, he was polite, efficient and caring about the process. I did not even notice the time frame, everything was smooth. read more

Premium Autos - El Monte - The business sign - Used Car Dealers Near Me - South El Monte, California

Went to this location looking for a low mileage Tesla. Nate stayed in contact with us and let us know when cars came in that matched our criteria. He made the process easy and we just signed the contract for our low mileage model Y and couldn't be happier! This dealership has a ton of teslas and helpful staff that will work to find you exactly the vehicle your looking for... I would highly recommend anyone looking for a Tesla come here n check out the selection read more

DO NOT BOTHER COMING TO THIS PLACE. What an absolute waste of time. I scheduled an appointment to test drive a car they had advertised and drove an hour, only to be told--without any respect or courtesy--that the car wasn't even on the lot. Their customer service is nonexistent, and common courtesy is clearly not part of their business model. Neither the person I initially spoke with nor the manager showed any enthusiasm or empathy for the fact that we had just wasted our time. I honestly don't know how they manage to stay in business. Absolutely horrible experience. read more

Fast and easy service! Gabriel made the process smooth & I drove off with a great Tesla. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for a Tesla! read more

Good luck trying to speak with a real person. If you do connect with a person live it's most likely answering service. They said vehicle was still available and after driving 2+ hours they said the car is getting fixed. read more

Whoever the lead sales person named Debra is should be fired. Very rude when she's obviously is making money on every sale . They have good prices because most cars have a dirty tile or mechanic issues. This is probably my 1st yelp review and I felt the need to take time to warn people stay away from Debra and these dealers read more

Bought a charger scat pack last night and i believe my sales man name was Gabriel. He made the process so easy less than an hour and a half i was out with the keys in my hand. He got me a good deal that i was happy with. Would work with him again if i ever bought another car from there. read more

Very good customer service. The whole process was smooth and they were very knowledgeable about the cars. Gabriel helped me out and helped me get my new Tesla! Highly recommend and we weren't here for hours. Thanks ! read more

This place is shady. Go somewhere else. They don't tell you about the $2,000 dealer fee, which is actually some bs cheap anti theft protection device they put in their cars so they can charge extra after they get someone on the hook. Tesla's are already near impossible to steal. Gotcha pricing. False advertising, and rude staff. We got into one car and there was a backpack full of weed in there. They have listings all over the internet and the prices look attractive but it's just a shady business practice. We called and they still didn't tell us about the extra 2k, so we drove 1 1/2 hours each way and came home with nothing. read more

I have been calling because I wanted to purchase a Tesla Y. I never have a response from anyone just Mark the AI guy, the woman who called me was so damn rude!!! I honestly had questions about the vehicle. The way I was treated was beyond unacceptable .... The AI scheduled me for an appointment on Saturday an after all the negative reviews I don't think I'll waste my time nor theirs, I'll wait to purchase the car I want read more

Have people actually pick up the phone and maybe actually talk to people with basic human decency. It's ridiculous to have 1 phone call, answer 1 question and then rudely hang up. I called back to see if I could ask one more question. They picked up the phone said nothing and then hung up again. I called back and they just send me to the AI assistant. The AI assistant was infinitely nicer than the actual live representative.. I was on hold with the AI assistant for over 30 minutes. Nobody ever talked to me. Absolutely shameful. read more

I just bought a 2018 Model S with a burned out front LED light . Tried to work something out with owner and later found out both front LED lights on driver and passenger side are bad. Showed Premium Autos estimate from their own mechanic. I offered to pay half and they still refused to make things right. Owner conveniently waited to respond until I could not return car . Shady practices buyer beware. Staff are friendly and cooperative. Owner is unreasonable and will not get my future business from myself , family or local community. Darin V read more

I would give zero stars if I could. My experience here was infuriating from start to finish. The process begins with an automated AI system that places you in a callback queue, which feels designed to be ignored. I had to call EIGHT separate times over a 48-hour period just to finally get a single call back. When I was finally able to speak with the sales manager, Debbie, the customer service was shockingly poor. I asked for a simple price breakdown on a Model S, and she flatly refused to provide one. Their business practices are incredibly deceptive. The price you see advertised online is not the price you will pay. They tack on numerous hidden addendums that significantly inflate the final cost, and none of this is disclosed upfront. To make matters worse, they claimed these addendums were "non-negotiable." Having worked in the car business for years, I know for a fact that everything is negotiable except for government taxes and fees. This is a classic bait-and-switch tactic. Do yourself a favor and stay far, far away from this dealership. read more

Run away from this dealer they are a scam. They have a lot of hidden fees that you absolutely don't need. That's just an extra way of them making money. The lady has the biggest attitude in the world. read more

Freindly sales. Hassel free! Treaded my truck in for a SUV EV and receive a charger to go with it. read more

Stay away from business like this, I was scheduled to check this vehicle for sale at there lot. And did came there on time and found out that the vehicle is still at the auction place. And asked if I want reservations for it. That is a red flag for me, never trust this business they got nothing good for your time, Go somewhere else, Ive seen small business but they do value your time and needs. How come this business is still open while there's Bad reviews like 2 years old? This business needed to be shut down, nothing good this company can offer . read more

They don't care to call you back for weeks or make appointments for the right location. Terrible customer service

Please don't waste your time like we did. They don't have any of the cars on the website. Even called and confirmed, but they use an AI and refuse to actually answer the phone. Unless you're willing to pay much more for a car worth way less than the ones on the site, I don't recommend wasting your time. Sincerely wish we would have listened to the reviews. read more

Bad customer service ! They scheduled me multiple times for a phone appointment and they don't answer . I send multiple emails and it seems like a automated system responds back instead of a real person. I went to both three locations El Monte and norco and service is the same . Not sure how they want to sell if they can't provide quality service. I looked at their reviews Ake most if not the majority are 1 star . This really tells you a lot of these dealers . Taking my business elsewhere read more

Very knowledgeable salesman I went with Gabriel kept it very honest and real with me on the price lots of Teslas to select from great variety I would recommend this dealership read more

Yo Gabriel for my first Tesla hook me up quality service work with me was able to drive off with a thousand down no more gas for your boy thank you Gabriel and premium auto read more

This place is shit. I never write reviews but for this one I absolutely had to. I dealt with Stephanie who had an attitude and wouldn't answer any of my questions when she's the one who called me. I asked if she could see if the car I wanted was available. She then told me to look myself on the website but I explained sometimes the cars aren't available and she said she didn't have time to even speak on the phone because she had other people waiting. Why didn't you call me when you had time then if you reached out to me. Then I asked if they have any add ons for the price and she said that's for you to figure out your the one who wants a car not me. Ridiculous! Run away I wouldn't give them a cent of my money. read more

worst dealership I've ever interacted with, if you want to call it that. You cannot get ahold of a real person on the phone. I set up multiple phone reservations through their AI chat bot, but no one ever called. I'm over it. read more

Nathan was great! He answered all of our questions promptly. He explained the buying process well and was not overwhelming.

DO NOT GO HERE THEY WILL RUIN YOUR CREDIT. I came to co-sign and they "shot-gunned" my credit file, which means they sent it off to so many banks. Each inquiry can potentially reduce my credit up to 15 POINTS EACH I directly communicated to only send it to 1 bank (Westlake), if they don't approve then they don't approve. Yet they kept passing my file to different managers I was told they have great relationship with banks yet they don't know the lenders criteria. I've sold cars for many years and would never do this. This is such a rookie move they should quite finance and work elsewhere read more
