The employees were very helpful and professional. The consideration of my needs and wants were fulfilled, allowing me to make a reasonable decision. I expressed my parameters to my sales person The consideration of my needs and wants were fulfilled, allowing me to make a reasonable decision. I expressed my parameters to my sales person (Jovi) and he thoughtfully presented vehicles which I could choose and afford. More
Full of lies and antiquated sales tactics. Even tried to show me their "real" costs on a "secret" computer. Do not buy from these scam artists. Even tried to show me their "real" costs on a "secret" computer. Do not buy from these scam artists. More
The car I got was actually in good working condition. But I didn't realize they tricked me on the price until after I went home and did the math. Basically made me pay a down payment and didn't deduct it But I didn't realize they tricked me on the price until after I went home and did the math. Basically made me pay a down payment and didn't deduct it from the price of the car and still charged me the full price of the car. So yea be careful as they will try to steal money from you. Also my salesman was a real xxxxx. His attitude changed after I decided to buy the car and then he started acting disrespectful to me. Also wasted a lot of my time when I went to pick up my car and none of the paperwork was ready. I was waiting for the lazy xxxxx for hours before he finally had it ready. He should have had it done and ready to sign since I already paid them my down payment days before I finalized the paperwork. Screw this place, never buying another vehicle from them, and never recommending them to anyone. More
Shoddy dealership that sells lemons and doesn’t care about putting families in danger with their crappy cars. Do yourself a favor and go to a reputable dealership.

We put a deposit on the Xterra but it would not pass smog. There was an extreme lack of communication and follow up on the part of the dealership to communicate the status of the repairs to allow the ve smog. There was an extreme lack of communication and follow up on the part of the dealership to communicate the status of the repairs to allow the vehicle to pass smog. We were frequently told that our sales person would call us back with the status - he never did. We had to go to the dealership several times to find out the status of the repairs. In other instances, we were on hold for close to an hour waiting for a status update - only to be disconnected. Finally, after over 3 weeks of this painful- like pulling teeth for information process - and still no car - we requested a refund of our deposit. The refund was granted without pushback. I will also note that this dealership adds a $900 theft insurance policy to all sales prices whether you need additional insurance or not…so add an additional ~ $1,000 to the advertised price of the vehicle.

We were communicating with Brandon M. My daughter emailed him to schedule a test drive, no response. She emailed again, no response. I emailed him, no response. My daughter called 3 times, “he’s busy”. I end him to schedule a test drive, no response. She emailed again, no response. I emailed him, no response. My daughter called 3 times, “he’s busy”. I ended up calling another sales person Andres R. He said he would send me a link to their inventory…..didn’t receive anything. He ended up texting the next day and apologized. He got the phones numbers mixed up. As for Brandon M, If you don’t want to help a college student find a reliable car then just say so. Don’t waste our time and don’t bother sending potential buyers an email that tries to convince the consumer that you want to help. Total B.S. More
