They stated no they did a camera walk around for me and started it up and I bought it and had it shipped. My mistake was trusting a business to do and tell me the right thing. I completely understand maybe needed new tires as I could see in the walk around. I've had this car since May and still can't drive it and already dropped over 3k into it. Things they would have 100% known about. Examples Blinker doesn't work, needed a wheel bearing, missing all inner wheel wells, center caps for wheels were on car on video walk around and when I got it they were off, side marker blinker doesn't work, tail light assembly needed replaced, ground affects were falling off, headlights stay on and don't shut off now, not to mention oil pain gasket leak and leak in return line for the turbo. And they won't help.

They gave us the "carfax" (a different car report company that gives you the same amount of juicy details), negotiated for replacing a mirror in the car I ended up picking, stayed late to assist us in our decision, and followed up with us. On top of that, they honored the verbal trade-in value for my previous car. This location does not have the classic car collection of Gulf to Bay- definitely more modern cars, some luxury, some muscle, some SUVs. But it was within my price range, after the trade in. The two cars I narrowed down to were both sellihg at their Kelley Blue Book value- what a wonderful surprise! They did not talk down to me as a woman, kept me in the loop, and were straight talkers. Do come here if you're looking for something nice and affordable. I love my new car, it's been a month with it. Thanks to John Anderson and manager Terry.

As a concerned citizen and advocate for consumer protection, I feel compelled to speak out about a…read moretroubling experience involving AutoNation Toyota in Pinellas Park is located at:8501 US Highway 19 NorthPinellas Park, FL 33781. A young single mother, raising a son with muscular dystrophy, reportedly spent $10,000 on a vehicle that became inoperable within just two weeks. When she returned seeking assistance, she was allegedly told she would need to pay an additional $4,000 for another vehicle rather than receiving meaningful support or accountability. This story, now circulating on TikTok, raises serious questions about ethical business practices and the treatment of vulnerable consumers. Businesses that serve the public have a responsibility to operate with transparency, fairness, and integrity--especially when dealing with families already facing significant challenges. Rather than responding with hostility, the community should focus on lawful and constructive action: documenting complaints, reporting concerns to consumer protection agencies, organizing peaceful demonstrations if appropriate, and encouraging public awareness so others can make informed decisions. Accountability is essential in maintaining trust within any community.

The quote was anywhere from $4,000-$10,000 depending on the seriousness of the damage. After finding a couple reviews of Nick and Meticulous Motors we decided to have him look at it. He replaced the radiator, test drove it and said that is all it needs; $500. We had him do a couple additional repairs and a car detailing. After all was said and done, he saved us thousands of dollars and had our vehicle back to us in just a couple days. The car runs great and looks great. Couldn't be happier.

Each visit resulted in new issues that were not present before the service. We trusted this shop to fix our vehicles and instead left with more repairs needed than when we arrived. At this point, the pattern is too consistent to ignore. Whether it's carelessness, lack of skill, or poor quality control, the outcome has been the same: damaged vehicles and wasted time and money. Steer clear if you value your car and don't want it made worse by the people working on it.

My experience with AutoMax Tampa Bay has been beyond disappointing and incredibly frustrating…read more We initially purchased a vehicle that had immediate issues. Within days, we were dealing with problems that should have been caught before the car was ever sold. Because of those issues, we were moved into another vehicle -- which also ended up having problems shortly after purchase. When we decided to voluntarily return the vehicle, we acted in good faith. We dropped it off with the key and a written letter explaining everything. Since then, communication has completely broken down. Phone calls, emails, and messages have gone unanswered for weeks. To make matters worse, the vehicle has now been resold -- yet they are still refusing to refund our down payment. We were told it was "as-is," but nowhere in our signed paperwork did it clearly state that our down payment would be automatically forfeited if we surrendered the vehicle. Keeping our deposit while also reselling the car does not feel ethical or fair. We tried to resolve this privately and respectfully. We weren't looking for a fight -- just accountability and good faith. Unfortunately, that has not been our experience. I would strongly encourage anyone considering buying from here to read every line of paperwork carefully and make sure you fully understand their policies before signing anything.

The very next morning I called and told them I was thinking about going a another way and told i would like to withdraw my deposit and they told that I would not get my deposit back which they did not informed me at the beginning of the transaction. The salesman never did show me the carfax or said anything about the deposit was nonrefundable and I top of that it's just found out the car has a savage title if i knew that I would never put the deposit down on the car or even bought the car first place. So my first payment is due tomorrow so I'm going down there to try to get out of buying this car. If that doesn't happen I am filling a complaint with the state BBB and who ever I can file one with. Stay far away from this dealership
