!!DO NOT TRUST THEM!!…read more I found a car from them on Autotrader for delivery and fully trusted the salesmen when they told me I had nothing to worry about, even if I didn't "like it" I could return it within 15 days, but to not worry because I was going to "love this car". The car not only arrived with more miles then stated and trash in the car, it also came back from the inspection with a leaking transmission, leaking power steering and almost $3000 worth of front end work needed to stop it from shaking and pulling hard to the left when I brake. When I contacted them via text and certified mail for them to honor their return I was told I could have if the car came back with any defects, they ghosted me for 7 weeks until the Attorney General got involved, then their only option was to drive the car they sold me with a leaking transmission back to them the 300 miles away. Well, I now have a $10,000 paperweight sitting in my garage that I can't drive or get rid of, despite having a 15 day warranty and purchasing an extended warranty. I can not stress enough to avoid these people like the plague!!!

My kids helped purchase their first car April 26. The car dealer was informed the car was being…read morepurchased for two 16 year olds and that they were putting their money they earned and saved towards this purchase. The day after we bought it the check engine light came on. Took the car to O Reilly to get the code read. The car dealer was informed the next day and assured my ex husband that they would order the part. Never heard from them again. This past Friday (May 30), the car started sounding terrible. The car was taken for an oil change, the oil was old and had metal shavings in it. Again called the dealer and got several stories. The "partner" bought the car and it was his fault. Then since we were past the 30 day warranty we would need to pay out of pocket for a new motor. Then we were basically told our kids drove it too rough. We have Life360 and get driving reports that show the speed driven, rapid acceleration and hard braking. Basically two teenagers were taken advantage of, and then blamed for a car becoming undrivable within 34 days of purchase which is disgusting behavior. If we want to pay more out of pocket to get a new engine we were told we could do that. I do not trust this dealership to fix this car. My ex husband offered to sell the car back to them (at a big loss to my kids), but the dealer doesn't do that, likely because it's junk.The car dealer gave my ex husband the runaround and several excuses. This is a good lesson to have a car checked out by a mechanic and my kids now know that car dealers can be very untrustworthy. A five thousand dollar lesson learned, and now we have a piece of junk car to dispose of. Believe the negative online reviews, the people we dealt with after the sale were definitely not the people who sold the car.

Worried that she would have a hard time finding a quality car at a fair price, I called Joel and we worked out an excellent deal for a 2011 Honda with low miles. He personally went through the car and ensured it had everything it needed, including new tires, pads and rotors, oil change and wipers before it went on the road. I've bought more than 20 cars in the last 25 years, and this was the easiest transaction I've ever experienced- and I never even saw the car. Honest dealership, quality selection, excellent pricing.

When I brought it back to resolve the issue, I was told they couldn't exchange the vehicle for another one in the same price range. ​The only response I received was, "Unfortunately, we can't do that at this time," with zero explanation or effort to make it right despite the "extenuating circumstances" of selling a faulty vehicle. For a company that prides itself on "no-hassle" buying, they certainly make it a hassle when they sell you a lemon. I expected much better service and accountability. Buyer beware.
