The car was stated by our mechanic to be trash. I called Mark who was no help at all. "The cars are sold as is." These are things he would have known when he sold us the vehicle. I'm very disappointed. From reading reviews and asking around about him; this is a regular occurrence. I am contacting lawyers and the Better Business Bureau. He cannot keep doing this to people. Also, checking into who does his inspections, because this car doesn't pass.

I bought a Dodge from Fernwood about 4 months ago, but the problems started immediately. I drove it…read more5 times if that, and realized the break pedal was very low when breaking. Turns out the guy undercoated it so it couldn't be seen that all of the axel seals in the front of the truck are bad. It needs front and back breaks, rotors, the transmission pan is leaking, the transfer case is leaking so needs to be replaced and there's STILL more. Now it's February, we paid 7k for the truck, put 4000 plus labor into it, and guess what? The motor is bad- that's another 3k plus 1k labor. Add everything up, and I could have bought a brand new truck from a dealer. The problems keep arising and I keep fixing them because of how much I've already put into it. The worst part is I could have been killed if I didn't know so much about trucks. A paint job and a push bar made the truck aesthetically pleasing- but when it comes to it running, it could have been deadly. He thought he was so clever by covering up the problems that he doesn't want or probably doesn't know how to fix. Just PLEASE DO NOT TRUST THIS CAR LOT! I should have listened to the reviews that were horrible, but again he saw the aesthetics like the new paint job, brand new push bar, and the new tires. He even half assed the tow kit. He put the bar to tow, but no electrical to hook up to tow anything. Just read the reviews. If it's too good to be true it is. Update- truck is trash. All receipts prove this was how he SOLD this truck which means he has no integrity and does not care if his junk kills people. In this condition-which would have killed me and possibly someone else; and it's not just talk- the breaks both front AND back literally just fell off into pieces when my Mechanic changed them. I know a lot about trucks myself, and he masterly hid so many problems, several which could have killed myself or my kids if I didn't know what I do. This guy put lipstick on a pig, and justice will be served- I won't stop until it is.

He was so helpful and easy to work with, and ended up giving me a great deal on a 2011 Toyota Corolla. Within a week of purchase, after my first long drive, my check engine light came on, and a few other minor issues came up. However, I called Mr. Smith, and he had me drop the car off at a garage where he totally fixed and payed for everything. It's been 6 months, and this car has handled my heavy traveling so well! It's hard to find an honest car salesman. I would definitely recommend Mr. Smith!

Attempted to purchase vehicles at the dealership and was lied to and deceived, so I purchased elsewhere. Took my vehicles there for many years without any issues and in the last 5 years, have had nothing but issues with the service department. Every time I went there with my vehicle in the last 5 years, I got it back in worse shape than it was in when it was handed to them. Had to finish repairing the vehicle myself the last two times because of incompetent mechanics and service advisers. The management and ownership at this dealership was impossible to work with and was extremely ignorant to me. In the end, I learned that by complaining about them, you are blacklisted from all of their dealerships because nobody, including management, at their dealerships can handle criticism or fix their internal issues, for which there are MANY. You are better off going to ANY other dealership for all of your buying and servicing needs because the Pompey Automotive Group just cannot get it right!

Griffins Auto is the LAST place you want to buy a car. They take advantage of people in a tight…read morespot who have nowhere else to go for a car. Sure, they will accept you with bad credit, as long as you have a small down payment and any income. However, their cars are in terrible shape with high mileage. Mr. Griffin will convince you that the car is in fact in great shape and will easily go past 300,000 miles. There are no prices on the cars, he decides how big of a sucker you might be before he gives you a price with outrageously high interest. Then when this car breaks down, they will happily "fix it" usually not doing anything at all or putting in a used part that will break again and charging 3 times what any other mechanic charges. The first car I purchased there needed a new engine within 6 MONTHS! I was desperate enough for a second car, and after a year, the transmission is falling apart not to mention other things. These people should be ashamed of themselves. DO NOT go to Griffins Auto. Its a scam that will cost you thousands, and by the time the car is paid off, you will have already been without that car for 2 years.

Last year we bought a new car just before the pandemic shut everything down. We called around asking about getting PA registration and inspection as we had purchased it in New York. The service department at Hornbeck told us there was a waiting list due to the situation and they could put us on it. They called back much more quickly than I expected and took us in. We were treated like royalty and then I asked them to detail our car. Angel took care of it and she was spotless and perfect. A few weeks ago I received a text from the service department suggesting a "once over" of our car for the season. Since we have a sports car, we don't drive it in the winter so after pulling her out of the garage this spring, we took her back to Hornbeck (not the closest Chevy dealer to us, but definitely the best). Again, the service department was amazing, all smiles, and super happy to help in any way possible. I scheduled an in-depth detailing of the car and I cannot rave enough about how Angel and his team took care of the car! They just opened a new detailing area and I can't recommend them enough for ANY vehicle. The attention to detail and absolute babying our car received is unparalleled! It was as if they loved our car as much as us! Angel and his crew took the time to go over everything they did and even got a very large scratch out without my having brought it to their attention. They found things we never noticed and corrected them and we couldn't be happier! But don't take our word for it; take a look at the picture of the blue Corvette!
