Hubby & I were shopping vehicles for our daughter to get back and forth to school and practice. We had some reservations about getting an older car (89 Mazda) but it didn't even have 80K miles on it and it's so clean inside and out... Ty had all the original manuals and the Carfax report. He offered it at fair price, not much "haggling" needed. We just wanted new tires since it was for our kiddo... Ty wanted us to feel like it was 110% ready for her when we took it home so as a surprise, he got her brand-new tires and detailed it like new, no extra charge! Take your used car needs to Tyson... he really just wants happy customers. Super great guy!! Thanks, Ty!!

He was zero high pressure, he was knowledgeable about the truck and he was honest about prices and options and everything. He provided an excellent, personable car buying experience. We were a little stressed because this was a purchase after our vehicle was totaled so we weren't expecting it and the process was easy, quick and nice. He has high quality inventory as well. Thanks so much Miguel and his wife (and Miley the pup), we are very happy with our new vehicle!

Not even a few days of owning the car there were electrical issues and the car horn didn't work.... They offered to fix it and the car seemed to be running fine up until a few months later I get a check engine light on and the car goes into complete limp mode. I take it to a few mechanics but still after every service is done the cars still seems to not want to turn on or drive over 20mph. I've only owned this car for a year and haven't been able to drive it from May-November due to how many issues there were and the final decision was getting rid of the car in its condition and getting no money back for it. Previous owners of this car had reported a coolant leak to the engine 3 years ago before I had purchased my car from this place, this information was not disclosed to me during the sale. Eventually this issue had led to complete engine failure in the 2019 Ford Escape. Definitely look out for small details like this before purchasing a car here and check the car fax!

Best Car Buying Experience I've Ever Had - Hands Down!…read more I can honestly say this was the best car-buying experience I've ever had. Escondido Auto went completely above and beyond from the moment I walked in. Cisco was the sales professional who helped me, and he was incredible. No pressure, no gimmicks, no wasted time -- just straightforward, honest service. He made buying my Tesla unbelievably easy. The entire process took about 45 minutes, and I was driving off feeling confident and excited. They truly had the best prices around, and everything was transparent and smooth. Cisco answered every question, explained everything clearly, and made sure the whole transaction was stress-free. You don't find service like this very often. If you're looking for a dealership that values your time and treats you right, Escondido Auto is the place to go -- ask for Cisco! I'm already planning to come back for a truck in the near future. That's how good the experience was. Highly, highly recommend!

We could tell that the people at EASC weren't concerned only with making a sale, but with making sure we felt satisfied and secure with our purchase. We'd recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a used car, and will be our first stop in the future.

The sales process was incredibly smooth--no pressure, the paperwork was efficient, and the staff at the Dan Way location were professional and welcoming. However, the "after-care" has been a different story. Shortly after the purchase, a mechanical issue arose that was clearly covered under the 30-day limited warranty. While I expected a quick fix, the service department has made it incredibly difficult to actually get the car in. When there the team could not diagnose the issue and asked to have me return if the issue persists. However; The Challenges: * Scheduling: Trying to get an appointment was a headache. I was told they were "extremely busy" and couldn't see the car for over a week, despite it being a warranty issue on a car they just sold me. * Resolution: While the issue is technically "covered," the hurdle of getting it diagnosed and repaired has turned an "easy" buying experience into a stressful ownership experience. I love the Lexus, but the service side of this CarMax needs a major overhaul in terms of accessibility and customer support. If you buy here, just be prepared for a potential fight if anything goes wrong during your warranty period

Buyer beware. We had a very disappointing experience at this dealership (Escondido location),…read morespecifically with a salesperson named Adriana. She was helping our daughter purchase a car, and throughout the process the numbers kept changing. Every time we spoke with her, more costs were added and the price was constantly adjusted. After finally agreeing on a deal, signing day became even worse. Adriana told our daughter that she had to purchase the warranty or they would not sell her the car. My husband directly asked if the warranty was mandatory, and Adriana admitted it was not but she won't sell that car without my daughter purchasing it. However, she then said that if we declined the warranty, they would require an additional $4,000 down payment in order to move forward with the sale. That immediately felt dishonest and extremely misleading. It seemed very clear they were hoping we would not carefully read the contract or question the terms. When we confronted Adriana about the contradictions, she repeatedly changed her story and claimed she "didn't remember" saying certain things. What makes this even more disappointing is that my husband and I previously purchased three vehicles from the National City location and never experienced anything like this. We were always treated fairly there. I strongly encourage anyone considering this dealership to read every document carefully, ask questions, and do not allow yourself to be pressured into unnecessary add-ons. Thankfully my husband and I were there with our daughter, otherwise she could have easily been taken advantage of. If you decide to purchase from this company, I would recommend going to the National City location instead.
