    2023 Hyundai Elantra

    My experience at Putnam Ford in Burlingame (not San Mateo), was excellent! I was hesitant to get my first car just because of handling finances and it would be my first large purchase by myself. Though, Luis Parada at Ford was able to assist me in finding a vehicle that was reasonable within my budget and also what I was looking for. Though I did not buy a ford, this Hyundai Elantra in their used lot was perfect for what I needed it for, low miles, gas mileage is great, and design is amazing! Luis assisted me in walking through the features of the vehicle with me, he was kind, and also as interested in me getting the car as I was. Very hospitable to my parents and can definitely look forward to seeing him for any future car purchase endeavors!

    I can't say enough good things about working with Robert. From start to finish, he truly took great care of me and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. He went above and beyond to make sure I got a great rate on my truck and took the time to explain everything clearly so I felt confident in my purchase. What really stood out was that he even came in on his day off just to make sure everything was completed and done right. That level of dedication and professionalism is hard to find. If you're looking for someone who genuinely looks out for your best interest, Robert is your guy. Highly recommend!

He helped me find the right car and color for me and trade in my previous one. Chris was personable, knowledgeable, and truly helpful throughout the process. Negotiations were fair, and every question I had was answered thoroughly and clearly. Even at the end, Chris didn't just hand over the keys, he made sure I could connect my phone to the car and see my navigation. He also checked in the next day, making it easy to ask any questions I had that came up. Plus, he connected me to schedule an appointment with one of their Love Encore Delivery Specialists (shout out to Max) to go over all my car's buttons and features. Very much appreciated! I now feel like I fully understand my car. Lastly, a big thank you to Oliver in finance, who was so informative and easy to talk to. I never felt pressured or rushed. He patiently explained my options and his recommendations. Overall, a positive experience, and I would recommend coming here for your next car!

I had the opportunity in brokering a Mazda vehicle purchase for family members located in the greater Sacramento area and Putnam Mazda was able to provide the best competitive offer for the vehicle over nearby Mazda dealers at Elk Grove, Roseville, etc. Putnam Mazda alongside their other dealership brands represents a massive inventory and higher volume sales that is apparent through their commpetitive pricing and scaled professionalism compared to the smaller local dealerships. This was made very clear when I initially contacted them with offer numbers. It was literal minutes after I sent my offer letter to Putnam Mazda when Will Browning called me and soon after agreed to terms. The very next morning, I drove the family members and myself 2.5 hours to Burlingame, CA and was in and out of the dealership with key fobs in hand in less than 3.5 hours. This included a test drive, financing paperwork and a full new owner tutorial that was both done in a patient, personable and thorough manner by Will Browning. Will Browning was instrumental in curating a sales purchase that was expedient and communicative and was a great co-collaborator in this transaction who also made it very clear to Jay the finance manager to keep on the straight and narrow when it came to dealer add ons. Jay was very respectful and professional in those regards. I understand that not many people would drive that far out to purchase a vehicle but how we spent the majority of the time to facillitate this deal on our time and terms mattered the most to us vs wasting time with the local dealerships who clearly are not on the same competitive level as Putnam Mazda / Bay Area dealership on the sales side for a higher price.

He does deep inspections and genuine research on what he sells, and it shows in the quality. What stood out most is how he treats customers: like he'd treat you as a close friend -- honest about the details, clear about pricing, and focused on getting you into the right car rather than "making a sale." The pricing was refreshingly straight up and felt better than what I was seeing on the broader market for comparable vehicles, especially considering the condition and how well-vetted everything was. One tip: come prepared. If you've done your homework and know what you want, Select Motors is the place. This isn't a dealership for spending an afternoon casually test-driving a bunch of different makes and models -- you'll get the best experience when you respect Horatio's time (and your own) and show up ready to make a smart decision. Highly recommend!

I really appreciated how transparent the whole process was. We landed in a spot that I felt very good about, and that doesn't always happen when you're buying a car. I left feeling confident that I got a fair deal and not second guessing whether I could have done better. Overall, it was smooth, professional, and genuinely positive. I would definitely recommend Ocean Honda, and especially Dorota, to anyone looking to buy a car and actually enjoy the experience.

Vicky hustled to get my add-ons and detailed completed in timely manner and this girl was going back and forth. Thank you to finance manager, Peter. He explained the finance portion, which went smoothly. Although, my husband and I spent like 7 hours here, it definitely didn't feel that way. Vicky also explained every step of the way so I understood and was able to answer any questions regarding the process and/or car and its features. I was even able to test drive few times around the neighborhood, which was great. Vicky is definitely the person to go to. I was recommended to her and was able to email her personally to schedule an appointment. Ended up going right when dealership opened at 10am today and was immediately helped by Vicky's coworkers who led me to Vicky herself. I understand why she gets the highest reviews by her personality, understanding, and knowledge of the car. She completely gets her clients, values, and beliefs. Completely down to earth, super friendly, and flexible. So, girl, definitely keep doing what you're doing here because it's been one of the best dealerships experiences I've gotten. I'm completely elastic about my purchase. Thank you for everything you've done. Best purchase this year.

David explained the technician would take a look at my concern and get back to me shortly with a diagnosis and plan for repair if needed. Three hours later, I received a call from David with a clear update on what they found and the next steps for repair. When I initially arrived, he asked if I had an extended warranty so he could start a claim. By the time he followed up, he had already taken care of everything and was just waiting for approval, which I really appreciated. About an hour later, David called back to let me know the warranty work had been approved. He also informed me that the required part had been ordered and was expected to arrive Friday or possibly Monday. I let him know they could keep the truck over the weekend, with the hope it would be ready sometime the following week. To my surprise, I received a call from David at 3:30 p.m. the very next day (Friday) letting me know the repair was already completed and my vehicle was ready for pickup at my convenience. Talk about fast and efficient service! When I arrived to pick up my truck, I was greeted by Kevin, who seamlessly handled the checkout process and personally brought my vehicle up for me. After dealing with less-than-great service at other local dealerships, I decided to give Putnam Chrysler Dodge a try--and I'm beyond impressed! The attention to detail and genuine care from the team exceeded my expectations. I'll absolutely be bringing my vehicle back for any future service, whether it's covered under warranty or not. Huge thanks to David, Kevin, and the entire Putnam Chrysler Jeep Dodge team for delivering such a wonderful experience!
