I would not recommend this dealership to anyone. I feel I was taken advantage of and their lack of customer service was appalling. Here's what happened:
I came to this dealership with my fiance to trade in our vehicles. We chose this dealership because a sales rep that she previously had a good experience with (Bobby) worked there. In the process of trading my vehicle in, Bobby brought me the carfax on my vehicle and said the car is "worthless". He explained on the report there was clear evidence of odometer tampering, which renders the value of the vehicle essentially worthless since you can't verify the true mileage of the car. He said I should be angry and calling my lawyer because I have a "cut and dry" case. He said "park the vehicle and don't pay another penny on it until the case is done with". Since my fiance had previously worked with Bobby, we took him at his word and appreciated his guidance. I still needed a vehicle though, especially if I was parking my old one to deal with the legal issue. We signed paperwork for another car. In the process, Bobby felt bad for my situation and offered me five tanks of gas, on the house.
The next day I called a lawyer who referred me to carfax to start with. After speaking with them, it was clear that it wasn't odometer tampering, but a misreport by a car shop which happens all the time. The mistake was cleared up within 24 hours. Now I was left with an additional car payment after I had been told I had a "cut and dry" case.
On top of that, the paperwork that we initially signed was false because the bank they told us would finance us, never approved us. We had to go back in and fill out a whole different set of paperwork at a different monthly payment that we hadn't agreed on. We already took possession of the vehicle, so had no choice but to accept. We spoke with the assistant GM who gave us another tank of gas and an apology for the whole mess.
When I went in to get my oiled changed and to see Bobby to get my free gas it turns out he no longer works there so no free gas. I presented the card the AGM gave me to the Sales Manager (last name Guzman) indicating the free gas and turns out that person no longer works there either. He took the card, put it in the shredder, and refused to honor it.
I've never felt so violated and taken advantage of in my life. Car dealerships have a bad reputation for taking advantage of customers and this is exactly the reason why. Do not fall victim to the same lies and con.
