Horrible experience...literally walked out of dealership and called another brand's dealership we had visited and said we would purchase. Demo raide was in car that was all tricked out so that it gave a te and called another brand's dealership we had visited and said we would purchase. Demo raide was in car that was all tricked out so that it gave a terrible feel of the SUV. Eventually drove the model we wanted. When came in with price it was completely out of wack and when we told the person, he started putting lower prices in front of us and crossing out prices we shook our heads to. Crazy! The complete streotype of a dealership...I can't imagine what the service would be like. More
Terrible experience, games all the way. Good luck buying a car for internet price. Can't even tell you about cars in stock. Plays all the games, salesman can not make a decision does not return calls. It is a car for internet price. Can't even tell you about cars in stock. Plays all the games, salesman can not make a decision does not return calls. It is a waist of time, No where near what internet says is regional prices paid. More
Went in for a 2008 Jeep Liberty with 22K miles advertised on the internet for $14999. We called the day before to make sure the vehicle was still on the lot & available. We were told that it was. That after on the internet for $14999. We called the day before to make sure the vehicle was still on the lot & available. We were told that it was. That afternoon a sales woman named Addy called our home to ask us when we would be in to look at the jeep. We said the next morning & she said that's great. When we got to the dealership the next morning, Addy told us that the jeep was on the lift and being serviced & would be ready for us to look at around 5PM. We told her that we just drove an hour to get here & were not coming back at 5pm. I asked her why the jeep is being serviced now when it was on the internet all week. She told us that this jeep was just taken into the dealership last night. I said how could that be when it was on the internet 3 days ago. She tells us "oh, that jeep sold 2 days ago, but this jeep is identical". When I asked her what the mileage was she said 33K. I said well then this jeep should be priced less than the internet one that had 22K miles on it. She said she would go and check the price. She comes back & says $19800. I said what the hell are you talking about, the jeep in your internet ad was $14999. She tells us oh that price was a misprint. CAN YOU SAY "BAIT & SWITCH" ?? - This place is an absolute JOKE !!!! Don't go near the joint. My wife called the dealership later on to complain to the Sales Manager & tell him what happened. He says to her "well what do you want me to do fire the girl, that's not going to happen. I don't know what to tell ya" and he hangs up on my wife. With a manager like that no wonder the place is a hole !!!!!!. More
We had bought a Sorrento from them about a year and half ago and dealt with a different salesman who was nice but no longer there. Being a repeat customer I thought I would be treated with respect but no. ago and dealt with a different salesman who was nice but no longer there. Being a repeat customer I thought I would be treated with respect but no. When greated we told him what we wanted and was told that I could not get that car for the price I wanted. Was told that we would have to get the Rio, not the Rio 5 for that price. I told him we needed a hatch back. After looking at Soul, we sat down while he went and got us price on Rio 5, they do not have on lot and I understood that, but that was one we were replacing and what I wanted. When he came back with base price I was outraged as I had looked up on website before hand and knew that $18000 was to high, that it was really around $16000, plus the $1000 rebate. We got up to leave and treated even ruder when he made comment that it will a long time before we get a great rebate. Well went to Karp Kia right after and got the car I wanted for the price I wanted, with no problem. More
This place has got to be kidding me.. 1st of all, Steve was more interested in telling me about his background and his wall street days than sell me a car.. Then they advertise a car for 10k and then when was more interested in telling me about his background and his wall street days than sell me a car.. Then they advertise a car for 10k and then when I get there and they hold my cc hostage, they hand me a payment schedule that equals 23k. WHAT YOU SAY? Oh yes, They pull a bait and switch on me, then want me to buy into his explanation that I shouldn't look at the total buy out cost.. Are there people out there that falls for this? You would imagine that these days are over in 2011, but they are not.. If you buy a car from this place, don't say you haven't been warned! More
Same as other poor reviews. However, salesman was a nice and knowledgeable young man.First we went to look at Mazda 3. Called and was told car is available, got there and it had a huge dent in front fender. and knowledgeable young man.First we went to look at Mazda 3. Called and was told car is available, got there and it had a huge dent in front fender. Salesman showed me a Kia and said that it was $11000 ish. Told me I had to finance to get that price. I said no problem as long as I can repay with no penalty. So we sat down and I asked if there were other fees? He only wanted to discuss the payment amount. I did not care about the payment I was paying it off ASAP. Turns out there was almost $1000 in fees added to price(before we get to the finance manager). I think the car was still a good deal, but refuse to deal with bait and switch car dealers. Would never go back. More
THIS STORY IS WORTH READING>>>I called and asked about a car I saw on Cars.com becuase the price seemed to good to be true and it was. They had listed a 2009 Volkswagen Routan SE - for $12,648 (from Deal car I saw on Cars.com becuase the price seemed to good to be true and it was. They had listed a 2009 Volkswagen Routan SE - for $12,648 (from Dealer: Autoworld - Patchogue, NY) as well as an additional $250 off if you call Tabatha. When I called they said that to get the internet price you HAVE to finance at least 90% of the price through one of their banks and have at least a 750 credit score or the price jumps up to the "retail" price or "cash" price which is Retail Price: $18,500 instead of the advertised Internet Price: $12,648. On Cars.com there is no mention of qualifying or a "different price for "UNPERFECT BUYERS" What a scam....a price difference of $5852 more than advertised because "their banks give them special deals if you finance through them. I work in finance and no banks are giving a $5000 plus incentive to a dealer to finance an $18,000 car. Bait and Switch at it's best....glad I did not drive all the way there to find out the details.

Walked in knowing exactly what I was looking for and how much I was willing to pay. I have good credit and a down payment. After PROVING the salesman wrong 6 times in 20 minutes, I walked out. I had to walk much I was willing to pay. I have good credit and a down payment. After PROVING the salesman wrong 6 times in 20 minutes, I walked out. I had to walk him out to the car to show him that the floor mats come STANDARD, he tacked on $75 for them. Showed him in HIS OWN dealers handbook that you CAN get this car without a sunroof and leather. I AM eligible for low interest AND $1500 in rebates. After arguing with him, I DEMANDED he check with his manager. Upon returning, he said I do qualify for both. No apology, just kept treating me like I was a pain in his ass. He was blatantly wrong, repeatedly, yet keep talking to me like I was an idiot. The next day I want to KARP KIA and bought the exact car I wanted for $500 LESS than what I thought I could get the car for and $3200 less than the crooks at Autoworld Kia wanted FOR THE SAME CAR!
