LOVE THEM I was very unsure about buying my first vehicle due to very bad experiences at other car dealerships in buffalo and the surrounding area. I reluctantl I was very unsure about buying my first vehicle due to very bad experiences at other car dealerships in buffalo and the surrounding area. I reluctantly went here even after reading these reviews and boy, were these bad reviews WRONG! The moment I stepped out the car I was greeted by Mike Dickinson who is 100% laid back, down to earth, and genuine salesman. I told him what i wanted and what i was looking for and he was so detailed and well versed in his car knowledge. He didn't try to talk me into an expensive car that i could barely afford. He actually looked at my finances and credit and gave me options within that range that I felt comfortable with. No pressure, No gimmicks. A person who actually seemed to care about my needs, wants, and finances. Once I picked out my beautiful Kia Soul I was off to the finance Dept. with Robert M. I have below to average credit and the financial manager was right to the point. No sugar coating. Just the honest truth laid straight in front of me which I LOVED! He fought tooth and nail to stay within my budget. He didn't "kill" my credit score any worse than it was (due to the lousy dealerships i had to deal with before). I got an amazing price with an amazing warranty. He knew what he was doing and boy, oh boy, did he succeed! Both Mike and Rob got me into my first ever vehicle and i feel like my children and I are in safe hands. I got a used vehicle and they made sure free of charge that she was in absolute tip top shape. Its almost like new because of the efforts of their mechanical team. This is the place to go to!!! I have never dealt with such great and HONEST car salesman EVER!!! They will definitely keep my business and I know i'm going to have more people come to them FIRST and ONLY cause they're the only salesman in this city worth going to!!! I swear!!! Keep up the good work guys!!! More
This place is a joke! Long story shortly walked into the dealership at 5:25pm to speak with the finance manager to get a refund for an extended warranty I no longer have be Long story shortly walked into the dealership at 5:25pm to speak with the finance manager to get a refund for an extended warranty I no longer have because of a trade in. The customer service was unprofessional, and rediculous! We waiting until 7:05pm before walking out with no help! We spoke with a sales person who stated she can't tell the finance manager we were there because she can't go in the office. Ok well call him? Knock on the door? Leave a note? Something!!!!! Instead she made us wait with no resolution!!!!!!! This place is so unprofessional everyone is dressed and looked unprofessional! We over heard sales men making fun of a customer! Who does that? They over price everything and try to make you think you're getting a fantastic deal, when in reality you are NOT! Please don't go here! Don't waste your time! Go to a dealership who cares and does not consider you a number or dollar signs!!!!!! Can I give a negative rating? 1-10 I'd say -100! More
Bad experience Got 2005 VW Passat on on 7/13/16, that very evening while with my dealer the strut messes up, and progressively got worst through out the night.They w Got 2005 VW Passat on on 7/13/16, that very evening while with my dealer the strut messes up, and progressively got worst through out the night.They wouldn't do anything for it the very next day! Nelson the "Manager said what do i expect for a 11 year old. I expect for a $7000 car not to need something fix the very next day. This wasn't going to be the last car i bought in my life and may be the last car i buy from them. They give me a $400 quote to fix and this is with me getting the parts at cost???? I had the car checked out by Empire Auto Werkes, and it will be $270. This just shows that something isn't right! More or less i am not getting what i was explained. Today is Sunday 7/17/16 and my check engine light is on and my muffler has a hole in it, and is making it very loud. I intend to go tomorrow, but i just feel they will not do anything for me at this point and it has not even been a week yet. I have big regrets going here so far. If anything changes i will be more then happy to change my review. CAN I AT LEAST DRIVE AROUND THE BLOCK A COUPLE OF TIMES BEFORE THE CAR STARTS TO BREAK? Since this last review. I had a gas leak and continuous check engine lights and epc light. Every time I have brought the car into this location I do not get any sort of paper. The gas leak was fixed, but check this out. The car was inspected by awesome motors and they sent the car back to awesome motors to be fix???????. Since when does a dealership does not inspect their own cars before they leave the facility to a new customer ( no paper work on this and was told to go to awesome motors to get the paper work. but I bought the car at transit towne). I have asked multiple times for the EPC codes to be checked but haven't and not paperwork every time I have gone in and out. I just think this is because they want this car to make it pass the 30 days lemon law warranty and there is no proof I have been in there without paper work. I had this EPC code checked by empire auto werkes and found to be that it is a crank sensor and still has a evape leak pending. What a nightmare of a car and I'm the bad guy cause I chose this car?????? More
My husband and I went into the dealership to buy a new TrailBlazer. The salesman was friendly, helpful, and did everything to get us what we wanted. We couldn't get the color we wanted, but they were abl TrailBlazer. The salesman was friendly, helpful, and did everything to get us what we wanted. We couldn't get the color we wanted, but they were able to give us a few upgrades at no cost. And just recently Leslie was able to help us work out an issue with the title from our trade in. Customer service is top notch in this sales department. We will never buy a car from anyone else. More
I tried getting a deal, and wanted a specific car, but the sales manager tried to have me take a color I didn't want, then assumed I wanted an expensive aftermarket sunroof, which I didn't want. I see wha the sales manager tried to have me take a color I didn't want, then assumed I wanted an expensive aftermarket sunroof, which I didn't want. I see what they mean by car dealers trying to get all they can. I thought this place was different, not so - infact - I ended up buying a Japanese brand and i am glad I did - Chevy's depreciate horribly. More
I initially submitted an internet Request online and received great follow up by the Internet Sales Manager over there. The price never changed and was under invoice, plus I got rebates and a great paym received great follow up by the Internet Sales Manager over there. The price never changed and was under invoice, plus I got rebates and a great payment doing a SmartBuy. Although the dealer did not have exactly what I wanted, to my surprise they located it for me, and I was very happy. I love my 2005 Malibu and think everyone should avoid the big Ego dealers in and near Buffalo and give these guys a shot. More
