    We took delivery of our 2020 which we ordered with everything we wanted (and didn't want) including the color... Chile Red. Motoring Advisor, Lee, was a delight to work with. We couldn't be happier with our new Mini and our experience at Sandia Mini.

    Let me go on record that I wholly dislike most car sales people - whether new or used. In shopping…read morefor cars, I have been to many, many car dealerships. That being said, I have to say that I have just had the most wonderful experience at Enterprise Car Sales. From the minute we walked on the lot, we were treated respectfully, honestly and were able to joke with our salesman, Mike Ellis. I HIGHLY recommend speaking with this man if you are in the market for a well-maintained used car. This man never pushed, never prodded, asked the appropriate questions and did it with a smile on his face. He was honest, forthcoming and just a pleasure to deal with. And he found me the car I wanted - that I loved. And then he brings in that pushy little person -- you know, the "closer" -- who goes over the financing with you. Except she wasn't. Lisa Darby was a pleasure to deal with - went through the information thoroughly and was honest as the day is long. She did her job efficiently and all with a smile on her face. And she drinks coffee :) I was a bit sad when I drove off the lot in my new/used dream car. A hug goodbye from both Mike and Lisa after I made them play staff photographer and sync my phone and go over features gave me a little tear in my eye. A dream team to be sure!

    I used to be an employee of Enterprise. I was fed lies about how great and well taken the cars are…read moreat Car Sales. I had the worst experience I have ever had buying a used car. This entire experience was an absolute nightmare and the attitude that I encountered from the employees at Car Sales was incredibly inappropriate. If they would have shown some sympathy for my situation it would have helped, they made me feel like an inconvenience. The only person who was truly helpful was Arturo. Otherwise, the area manager Sam Leibenhaut, employees like Dashnie, and even the main honcho Mike Peters, gave off a very bad attitude. Around April 10th, I bought a 2022 Nissan Sentra. Shortly after I bought the car, I noticed it would shake at various speeds. Therefore, Car Sales had me take it to Pep Boys. According to Sam, Pep Boys told him that they recommended the wheels be replaced because they have flat spots that may continue to make the car shake, but the balance should have taken care of 90% of it. Sam said he could not replace the tires because the tread was still new. Shortly thereafter I noticed that when I turned right or lef the front of the car made a sound. Car Sales also heard the sound, so I took it to another Pep Boys. The CV axle was broken and the struts needed to be replaced. The car that I had less than 2 weeks sat at Pep Boys for a week because they had to order the CV axle. I never heard anything from Enterprise. When I arrived at Pep Boys, I was told they only changed the struts because it was still under warranty with Nissan. Nobody communicated this with me so my car sat there a week. Then I took the car to Nissan. Sam had an attitude. When I told him that I appreciated Arturo and his apologies, Sam got defensive and let me know he had already apologized 4 times. After complaining about Sam, I started working with the general manager of Car Sales--Mike Peters. After having the car at Nissan for a week waiting for the axle to arrive, they said the control arm and boots were also broken. Nissan said it looked like the bolts had been banged on. My car was at Nissan for almost 3 weeks. I had the car a month and I only got to drive it for one week. When the car was ready, Nissan said I had to pay a $100 deductible, or I would not get my car back. I had to reach out to Enterprise again. When I spoke to Dashnie on the phone, I did not yell at her, but I did raise my voice a bit, which resulted in her hanging up on me. When I did eventually speak with Mike, he wanted ME to pay for the deductible and be reimbursed by Enterprise--to which I said no. When I spoke to Nissan, I asked them what they thought happened, They told me that Mike had been giving them attitude and telling them that this should be under their warranty, however, it was obvious that this was not a manufacturer error--someone else had done this to the car. They assumed someone had hit a curb or something with it and then got it shoddily repaired. The car still vibrates when I drive it. I am hoping it is just the tires because Nissan pretty much replaced the whole front. However, I am too scared to reach out to Enterprise because of their attitude and Sam had said he cannot justify buying new tires since the tread is fine. The hassle I went through with Enterprise was NOT worth it. I went to them because I thought I could trust them and believed I would get a reliable car. I was sorely mistaken. Not only was this car seriously damaged on THEIR watch, it was not inspected before it was sold, and their customer service was severely lacking. I know Enterprise's values--they claim that their brand is the most important thing that they own, and they always claim how important the customer is to them. I was going to refer people to Car Sales, even my husband was going to buy his next car from them, but after what happened I will definitely go out of my way to tell people NOT to buy used cars from Enterprise Car Sales, especially in Albuquerque, because it is quite apparent they cannot be trusted.

This company knowingly omitted material information that would have prevented most consumers from purchasing the vehicle. What was represented as a "clean" vehicle was in reality a poorly executed attempt to conceal prior collision damage. The "minor" damage on the carfax was far more than a cosmetic ding. Their 6 point inspection they are so proud of didn't mention how the grill was being kept on by zip ties alone, or how the bumper was glued on. No mention of a prior collision extensive enough to require a new radiator cage, a new hood, a new grill and a new bumper. To an average consumer like myself, the grill and bumper looked like upgrades. Over the course of five months, and throughout multiple communications, I was repeatedly assured all issues would be corrected. After the vehicle was held for weeks for so-called "repairs", it was returned with substandard, below poor quality, bodywork, and critical sensors still malfunctioning. An independent third-party inspection confirmed the repairs were rushed, unprofessional, and cosmetic, not corrective. When these deficiencies were raised, the dealership resorted to gaslighting tactics, denying visible defects, contradicting prior statements and attempting to make me question what was clearly documented and observable. Rather than taking accountability, their responses are evasive, dismissive, and calculated in an attempt to shut down further discussion. In a good-faith attempt to resolve the issue, I requested a comparable vehicle with no collision damage and/or history. I was repeatedly assured that this solution was acceptable and achievable. Once those assurances were given, communication effectively ceased, with follow-ups ignored and no meaningful effort made to honor the proposed resolution. What good is calling if phone calls are ignored and messages go unanswered. This was not a mistake or a misunderstanding, but a pattern of misleading conduct designed to push a sale through at any cost while avoiding responsibility afterward. In my experience, Hubert operates on half-truths, omission, and customer fatigue rather than transparency or integrity.

BMW, D.N.J.) and an active BMW service bulletin (SI B11 03 17). I disclosed my concerns explicitly: the vehicle was running hotter than normal, had experienced a loss of power, and had triggered an intermittent oil pressure warning under load. The service advisor's response was to misrepresent BMW's own engineering specifications, claiming that elevated operating temperatures were "optimal" for this vehicle. This is factually incorrect and directly contradicts BMW's published guidelines. No further diagnostic action was taken, and I was dismissed without remedy. Eight weeks later, the engine suffered catastrophic failure -- grinding, complete loss of power, and a no-start condition consistent with total timing chain and oil pump system destruction. The vehicle had to be towed. The failure mode, the timeline, and the symptom progression I reported at my service visit are textbook presentations of the exact defect Sandia BMW's certified technicians are trained and obligated to identify. A dealership operating as an authorized BMW service center has both the proprietary diagnostic tools and the manufacturer's service bulletins to identify this failure in progress. The decision to send me back on the road in a vehicle exhibiting active warning signs of imminent catastrophic engine failure raises serious questions about the standard of care provided -- and the potential liability that follows from it. Following the failure, I contacted BMW of North America directly, at which point a case was opened and I was transferred to a designated advocate. That advocate was dismissive, stating that BMW was unlikely to accept responsibility, and redirected me to Sandia BMW, representing that a dealership representative would contact me. No contact was ever made. BMW of North America's own case record documents that I pursued every available channel in good faith. What I received in return was a closed door at the corporate level and silence at the dealership level -- a coordinated failure of accountability from an authorized service network that had both the knowledge and the obligation to act before this vehicle was destroyed. Prospective customers bringing vehicles with N20 or N26 engines to this facility for service should be aware of this experience and draw their own conclusions.

    My hubby and I have been shopping around for a new car. Some of the dealerships have bad sales…read morefolks. Sandia was not one of them. Our sales guy, Torrance, was good. He is a sales person but not high pressure. They didn't try and push a lot of extras. They offered, but didn't push it. The process was pretty smooth. They didn't initially offer much in discounts but when we showed a similar car at another dealership,They matched the price. The fine guy, Michael, was good too. He offered a lot of additional coverage options and took the time to discuss the coverage and price for each. Again no high pressure just offered and explained. We had a ton of questions and specific scenarios. Will it cover this... what if that happens. Michael was patient and thorough. Thanks

    I needed front shocks and, having been a dealership mechanic many years ago, researched the repair,…read morefinding it was without unusual complexity and involved only a small number of fasteners (about a dozen per side). Access to all fasteners and parts was uncomplicated. I called Sandia, and was told that the job would take 4 hours, which seemed extremely difficult to understand. I went through the job bolt by bolt, asking the polite service advisor how in the world it could take much more than an hour, much less 4? He insisted that it was the "flat rate" time from Toyota, so, in reserved disbelief, and being fairly new to the area, and having read terrible reviews for most shops, I booked the work where at least there would be familiarity with the car and use of correct parts. Out of curiosity about the flat rate estimate, I kept an eye on the progress as coming and going of other cars opened large doors, letting me see what was up. In less than 45 minutes, the work was completed. I went back to the service advisor to note that the actual time was in line with what I had suggested was about right, and a far cry from half a day. He had no option to reduce the charge to a fair price, which I believe, so I asked for the manager. Both the service advisor and manager were quite polite and you could see that, although they could not say so, they agreed that this was highway robbery; after all, the dealership is right next to Highway 25... They tried their best to give me a senior discount of some sort, but explained that this was the way mechanics were repaid for jobs that took too long. That, of course was not correct. Jobs that take too long are either a result of inexperience, poor training, or poor facilities, parts availability, or lack of proper tools. The exception is for jobs were additional and unforeseeable problems were uncovered. None of that applied. This is the most obscene robbery I have been subjected to in any of my 72 years. What is needed is probably a class action lawsuit. That keeps down the cost for each victim. Otherwise, we will all suffer this fate over time. The low state population and incompetent/avaricious management will mean that alternatives will not be easy to find. Soon after, we purchased a new $52k Toyota and found that we could save $4k on exactly the same new car model and spec, by going out of state. That paid for a nice vacation and saved us having to deal with similar processes amid the sales teams in the area. Please see complaints from other reviewers... I highly recommend checking on going out of state. It was a fabulous experience on top of a far better deal. Fly into New Orleans, spend a few days, the dealership in the very rural north edge of the state sent a Cajun driver who gave us a fabulous tour along the way, and we got our ideal car and a cultural extravaganza.
