Marco listened carefully to what I said I wanted and showed me a vehicle that met my criteria. I then brought up another issue, and he showed me a second vehicle that he thought would address it. I was More

Sales person was very good and attentive. Sales manager wasn't hard to work with. Finance guy was very friendly. The only thing that keeps this dealer from being 5 stars is trying to force a More

Purchased a new CX-5 from Caruso Mazda on 7/19/24. I got quotes from TruCar and Caruso Mazda provided the best prices of all nearby dealerships. The lead was sent to Internet Manager Julie Frisch More

Gordon, First off, congrats on your new CX-5, and thank you for the opportunity to earn your business. We're disappointed the car-buying experience didn't go as seamlessly as possible. We take pride in being transparent throughout the car-buying process, which is why I'd like the opportunity to learn more about what transpired, as well as provide any clarification needed on the TrueCar pricing structure. Please contact me at your convenience. I look forward to hearing from you. Regards, Mike Kitzmiller General Manager mkitzmiller@carusomazda.com

GMKWAN responded

There was zero confusion or clarification needed on the TruCar pricing structure. TruCar merely provided you the lead which your employee Julie then used to emailed me your offer. My original post is as transparent and detailed as a review can be. The issue was the shady tactics and lies used by your General Sales Manager Nery Chacon. Given your response of defecting towards TruCar and ignoring the actual complaint of your General Sales Manager, one can conclude that as Head General Manager and his supervisor you not only support these shady tactics but this is standard practice at your dealership and likely not an isolated incident.
