I took this dealership a cashiers check and bought the vehicle that I wanted cash out right. Here we are 1 month .5 later I get contacted from my credit union that they have not received the title from this dealer showing then as the lien holder through the DMV. I called the owner Jesus on 3 occasions and had 2 semi progressive conversations which were endless at the end of the day. So I reach out to the DMV w the VIN number to find that the vehicle has not been registered nor do they have received any paperwork of sale of the vehicle. which means they have sat on the purchase and paperwork. Now ask yourself, would you find yourself on here writing a informative review as I am as well? ABSOLUTELY!!! read more

WARNING: DO NOT BUY A USED CAR FROM THIS DEALERSHIP I purchased a used Toyota Highlander from this dealership, and within one week, the car already needed repairs. All mechanical work is done in-house, and it was hands down the worst repair experience I've ever had. They assured us the car was in good condition and that the engine had no issues - that was not true. This dealership makes the car run just well enough to get past the warranty period, and once something goes wrong, they refuse to help. This place is dishonest and takes advantage of customers. First round of issues (within the first week): The tire pressure sensor light was on The brakes were pulsating and needed new pads and rotors The trunk's closing cushion was loose, causing water to leak inside when it rained (this was never fixed) The right-side seat was coming loose (this was never fixed) We got the car back very quickly, which should have been a red flag. Second issue: About a week later, I drove the car roughly 30 minutes from my home when it began shaking violently both uphill and downhill. It shook so badly that I was genuinely scared to drive it. I barely made it home safely and had to return the car for repairs again. Once again, all repairs were done in-house at their dealership. We didn't get the car back for 1-2 weeks. Third and most serious issue: About a month later - after the one-month warranty expired - the car started shutting off completely whenever I made left or right turns. This happened six times total, including three times in traffic. It was terrifying and extremely unsafe. The car wouldn't restart right away, and when it did, it often took multiple attempts. We contacted the dealership, and they refused to help. While trying to diagnose the issue ourselves, my boyfriend discovered: The throttle body and air intake were extremely dirty After further inspection, we found there was NO OIL IN THE CAR This is especially alarming because we were explicitly told the oil had been changed and the vehicle was "up to code" before purchase. We were unknowingly driving a car with no oil, and no warning lights ever came on. They sold us a defective vehicle and still refused to take responsibility. We lost a significant amount of money on this purchase. This dealership preys on people who need a reliable car and cannot afford to be taken advantage of. Please save yourself the stress, fear, and financial loss - do NOT buy a car from here. read more

If I could give zero stars I would, I left the dealership and the same day my check engine light came on. I called to get it fixed and they said the repair guy would call me when he comes in, I've called WAY TOO MANY times and they told me the same thing everytime. Finally today I called and the guy said it's not thier problem the guy wasn't going to call me because I bought my car in November. I explained the situation and he said after 30 days it was no longer their problem. They are scam artists they fix the cars to sell them then don't care if they put you and your family in danger. If I could sue them I honestly would read more

zero stars !!!!do not buy from here!!! they sell unreliable cars that look good on the outside but have loads of engine and transmission problems. they get cars straight from auction and just wax them real good and clean the engine to give the appearance of a good condition car but will mask any issues before selling it to us buyers. all cars are as is with a fake 30 day dealer warranty that they dont honor. cars look nice and and clean but have engine and transmission issues based on my experience as a buyer at save money motors. also they will tell you to go 50/50 in repairs they knew about and should have fixed but wait for the buyer to purchase and act like they did not know anything about the issues. the owner acts like a nice guy but once you purchase the vehicle and discover any issues you will see the true colors biggest financial mistake i have ever made and you will make if you purchase here now im stuck with a car that needs to be repaired and should have been repaired before selling it to us buyers. my experience here is i bought a vehicle at save money motors and notices some issues pre purchase and they promise repairs but all lies. all they did is erase check engine light codes and wipe of leak with a paper towel just to mask it, but after a couple days check engine light would turn on and also will notice the leak again and also discovered that my first gear would jump out of gear when accelerating. also discovered wiring issues with my vehicle. i took my recently purchase vehicle to save money 4 times even left it on weekends and still has the same issues since day 1. ****** they have ignore all my calls after bad review and i ended up paying a shop to repair it. owner also threaten me. read more

If I can give them 0 stars I will ... I had a bad experience I was lied too by different sales men about car price , I didn't get the lady name in the office she is very unprofessional and rude doesn't have a clue of what she's doing, wasted my time 3 times. What car dealer sells car with check engine light on there a SCAM save your time and go elsewhere. COME AND SPEND YOUR MONEY AND DONT SAVE AT ALL AUTO SALES ..... that should be there name read more

This car dealership sucks never buy a car from them I bought a 2020 jeep the next week I was coming up the hill the car stopped on me and I had to pull to the side from in the middle of the freeway and the car start smoking cut completely off and had to pay triple A 200$ to tow it off the freeway and I been waiting 2or 3 weeks for it to get repaired and I still haven't heard nothing yet there unprofessional and not right p!ease I advise you not to ever buy a car from them read more

Never buy a car from this place. The manager, Jesus, is by far the rudest, most disrespectful, and unprofessional person I have ever dealt with. I purchased a 2015 Chevy Cruze and paid cash. Just two days later, the check engine light came on and the car wouldn't start. I was repeatedly given the runaround about when and where to bring it in for repairs. Shortly after, the car overheated, forcing me to take it back again. I have owned the car for 30 days, and for two of those weeks it sat in their backyard shop while they "worked" on it. Once payment was made, Edwin Urina, who handled my paperwork, wanted nothing to do with the vehicle or the problems. Edwin and Roberto also failed to disclose that the backup camera never worked, which shows a lack of honesty and transparency. The only person who genuinely tried to help was Alex. Save yourself the stress, time, and money and do not go to Save Money Auto Sales. This dealership is unprofessional and misleading. Jesus, Edwin Urina, and Roberto should not be trusted. This place doesn't deserve a star, but it was needed to post this review. read more

The quality of cars are NOT okay got a car 6 months ago and has been failing for ver since

Bad cars bad service and they don't keep their word promise to fix the car and never fix it. Never buying a car here again.

This dealership scamed me out of 500.00 which was non refundable. I was under the impression that putting the 500.00 down that I was going leave with a new car, but only to realize the dealer Elwin wanted another 1500. When disclosed all I had was 500.00. I also qualified for a loan from one of their agency. I tried calling and everytime Elwin was busy or I call and would be disconnected. I would not recommend this place. If you look on BBB ( Better Business Bureau you will find others that experience similar issues with this company. read more

Never buy a car here even if it's on a special I bought a 2013 Hyundai sonata gls from this company the first few months it was running good then after the 6 month I was having a lot of issues with the car I didn't have the car for a year and it caught on fire your better off going to a actual branded car dealer or carmax never buy or finance here! read more

Save Money Auto Sales - Not even a year of owning - Car Dealers Near Me - Bloomington, California

Sales/Finance manager Mr "E" is just a typical saleman i guess thats why he is in that pilosition ..he sells with words. We walked in the lot presented him with our current credit situation and some more, but ofcourse a typical lie they tell you they can get you in a car the same day, he supposedly trying to get us a deal, have us waiting and proceeded to entertain another customer that'a buying "cash" so ofcourse he will attend to that, so far for first come first serve. Then goes to tell us instead of waiting he will call us when he gets the deal for us, long story short .. we never got a call wether its a go or no. They are no different from any car sales agents, will sell their lie to run your credit for their pay. He says he's the best in town, i will say yea..the best liar in town. If you know your credit is low do not come to this place.. he will just F@#K your credit. One star is not even worth it for thia people. read more

Nothing can improve this business really bad cars bought a Chevy Camaro not enven getting out of the dealer and problems they agree to fix it took them more then 2 days and still waiting for ac to be fixed sales persons really bad do not recommend them I won't even give them 1 star don't buy cars from this place take your money to a better place read more

Believe the 1 star reviews! I originally left a positive review but after not even having the car for a month its already messing up on me. Mind you they had the car for a week fixing the Issues I was having, the major issue I was having with the car, Didnt get fixed. I took it to an actual mechanic and its an engine issue. Please save your money and your mind and dont purchase from here. "Save money" my ass! read more

Nice place this is my 2 purchase and would definitely come again had the car for a year and no problem

If you are a woman, they will discount your opinion. They only work with men. Very gender biased. Even if you are a strong woman, they won't listen to you. Beware read more

I think that as far as auto dealers and salesmen go, these are probably the closest to sincere you'll find. I went to four other places prior to purchasing our car from here. I genuinely think that they mean well, however lack of organization and communication is a problem. I personally have a high sense of order, so perhaps my assessment is unfair. I think the reviews of 1 star are kinda unfair. It's no mystery that you are buying used cars that likely have problems. Our car has a problem the first week of ownership and they fixed it. No one contacted us to explain what was wrong or that the car was ready to be picked up, but we finally asked the one person who seemed to know what they fixed, and he explained it to us and we were on our way. I think in this economy, these cars are about perfectly priced. Fair enough to the consumer and fair enough to the dealer. I can accept that. We are all just trying to take care of our families. Honestly, if I absolutely need a new car, this is where I'll go. read more

Purchased my convertible Ford Mustang from here & they were able to give me a good deal. I told them I commute far for work and needed a reliable car. Definitely recommend asking all the important questions before purchasing. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase. read more

DO NOT BUY !!!!!! Lemon cars!!!! They used to be called underpriced auto and I'm sure some legal actions happened and they had to go under as a new name but please do not buy from here!!!!!!!!! They sell lemon cars ! They try to half a** fix up cars and sell them. I purchased a mini Cooper from them a few years back and after 1 month the cars check engine popped up and all they did was just clear the check engine off my dash, and after a few days it came up again and I went back and all they told me was "sorry, after the 30 days we can't do anything to help". They are frauds and only care about money. read more

Don't buy anything from this lot. The cars are garbage. My engine had to be replaced after driving it one week. This place is bullshit. Don't waste your money and don't give yourself a bunch of headaches. read more

5/7/24- Most dishonest people ever! There were 3 different customers who all reported purchasing vehicles from these people and they all shared the same experience. Cars all had problems with catalytic converters, transmission, and engines! This company makes false promises to make things right and all they do is have you running around and never give you straight answers. The manager/owner Jesus was witnessed trying to provoke a 19 year old customer to fight this evening! Shame on this place for selling a bunch of junk and for taking advantage of people! YES, I did get my deposit back in full, but that does not make it right for the others! I'm sure there are many people who do not advocate for themselves and lose their hard earned money; therefore I will continue to share my experience and observations. UPDATE: 5/8/24 - Ironically I received a phone call from the company in regard to my Yelp review. The young woman seemed to be "confused/concerned" as to why I would leave such review of if I did receive a refund. I explained to her my reasons. She did her best to convince me otherwise and when she was not successful, she proceeded to remind me that she has record of my personal information and that she may need to take legal action. She claims I lied on my credit application, which I did not, the company took it upon themselves to complete the application for me and to "fix" it so that I wouldn't have any issues. I will not stop warning our community about the risks they may take dealing with these! I highly recommend that if you've been one of their victims to consult with an attorney and/or to file a formal complaint with the department of investigations with the DMV. read more

LEMON CARS.... this Jesus Guys shouldn't even have a business license. purchase a car with one month guarantee, the motor light turned on the same day I took the car home, I had to bring it back to get it fix, Is been 2 weeks since return it to the shop for repair, and it hasn't been fix, I had place so many phone calls the guys Jesus doesn't answer. Finally I was told the car was ready, when I ask them for the repairs they didn't have anything on records. as soon as Turn the car on, the light was still ON. This dealer is no GOOD I had to leave the car again, they promise they were going to call me first thing in the morning (Monday) well is past 2:30 and no had call me, So I call left waiting for more than 15 minutes and the phone call dropped, I had to call 3 times, before speaking to JEsus just to tell me to call him back around 6:00 this is to much. read more

Sold a lemon vehicle do not trust these people very complicated to work with. There was so many problems with the vehicle that we purchased that it was basically a junk car overpriced, not trustworthy. Don't let these people take your money. read more

DO NOT BUY FROM THEM, SCAM WARNING. Service is not great and there is lack of communication with all the workers. Never stay true to their word and are just trying to make a sale. Bought a car from them last year and the next day the transmission went out, I gave them the benefit of the doubt because they said they'd repair it for free, but it almost took a month. As soon as I get the car back the radiator goes out, I take it back and they said my warranty was already used due to the transmission. After fighting it and failing, I ended up having to pay outage pocket to get it repaired because I needed transportation. Then, only a couple months later the motor blows completely, again, dealership says there's nothing they can do to help, not even a trade in. I ended up junking the car with money still to owe. Again, stay away from this place, they try to attract people with their low prices and "no money down" advertising but their service is terrible and their cars are unreliable. read more

This was the worst experience ever. I am so upset they sold me a car that had problems the day after I drove it home . They don't want to give me my down payment back even though they attempted to fix it several times and cannot . I put $5500 down and got screwed read more

Recently bought a car, and the check engine light went on within 2 weeks. Took it back to them to fix it only for them to keep it for over a week, give le the run around and when i finally picked it then tried to trick me by dimming the dashboard light enough for the check engine light to barely be noticed. They are crooked and horrible customer service read more

* DO NOT BUY FROM HERE!* Purchased a pathfinder on a Friday afternoon, apparently the touchscreen radio had an issue but they told me that they'll fix it by Monday, left it there for them to replace. Monday came along no one called, had to call in the afternoon to know the status & they kept giving me the round around that it's not ready. Tuesday came along I had to go in person because no called and they said they didn't have it ready but it was on order. They said that I can take it like that. Went in person & told them I wasn't gonna take it like that & boss said they'll have ready by Wednesday if it wasn't he was going to lend me a car for the inconvenience. Wednesday afternoon called & they told me that it's still not ready, asked for the The they told me he wasn't there they gave me a number & no answer. Just absolutely horrible place to purchase. Should be negative stars read more

Do not buy here they will sell you a junk car. I bought a truck and just a week later the AC stopped working. I brought it to them and all the mechanic did was get it out and put the same AC pump back in bc it was never fixed. After that the engine started heating up. Also when I was doing my paper work with this 80 yr old man Augy was kissing this mid 30yr old lady (pregnant at the time) in front of my 7 and 6 yr old kids. Very unprofessional. But back to the car part now i have to get it fix somewhere else bc I'm sure they won't do anything. I wish there would a type of agency that could help all of the people with similar problems. read more

Listen to these reviews! It is sketchy. Drove about an hour to see 2 cars. Sales person friendly but pushy. Wouldn't let us test drive until we talked numbers in his office. We planned on paying cash the entire time no need to talk numbers but he still wouldn't budge. Still had to sit with their fiance guy who acted annoyed. Explained once again we are paying cash. Then was allowed to test drive car. Car seemed okay but the sales person came with us and only allowed us to drive around the block. A total of a maybe 3 minute test drive. Very odd. We got back and after reading the reviews and the experience so far, we walked away. Go with your gut. read more

Zero stars!! Everyone that has gotten bad service, a bad car with consistent problems even after they "fix it", we should ALL get together and make something happen..make this heard so nobody else goes through this. Email me at frank.villa1989@gmail.com. WE CAN'T BE PAYING FOR CARS THAT WE CANT RELY ON!!! Seems like these cars come straight from auction, get cleaned up nicely, and put on the lot for sale without PROFESSIONAL INSPECTIONS from RELIABLE AND CERTIFIED MECHANICS!!! Might contact news media about this because I'm one of the hundreds that has also had a bad experience read more

My son and I was there today. Came here with intentions to purchase a car. Thank good we're know better, we walked out. This place needs to have a visit from the. https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/oceanside/profile/auto-repair/california-automotive-solutions-1126-172003619, which I plan on filing a complaint on this business. They have false advertisement, add charges to the contract, and inappropriately do not disclose hidden fees. On top of it the manager is rude and tried bulling my son into a contract. Don't buy anything here. All of you people who were ripped off I suggest you file a complaint, they need a visit from the state so they can get shut down. They messed with the wrong family who knows finances and proper business practices. Worst place. Gave one star because this won't post unless I choose one. It's should be a -0 negative. read more

Giving this place one star is very generous. They are nice until they make that sale then they are absolutely rude. They don't return phone calls or messages. Jose is the rudest of them all. When I went to pick up my car after waiting two weeks to get the AC fixed they couldn't find my car. When they found my car it was parked on the street two blocks away. Worst place to purchase a car. read more

Do not shop here!! I just purchased a vehicle and it's been a complete nightmare! Manny was extremely friendly and helpful when selling us the car. However, since then Manny has refused to help us and has even hung up on us. The AC and radio do not work in the car. Manny assured us that issue would be resolved the very next day. 1 week later and nothing but excuses as to why the car can't be fixed. Manny refuses to take our calls and is refusing to address the issues at hand. Save your money and time. Go somewhere else! Trust me! If I could rate this place with a negative star I would! read more
