Victorville Motors

Start with Sales, I have tried to purchase 5 different cars from these people, and they were more than happy to let me leave. One sales guys said they get enough business they don't need mine. Wrangler, C cars from these people, and they were more than happy to let me leave. One sales guys said they get enough business they don't need mine. Wrangler, Charger, Ram 1500, Cherokee, and a Grand Cherokee, all deals that went down the hill. I am glad I went down, we were treated with respect and got a great deal. NOW SERVICE, PLAIN AND SIMPLE THEY WILL NOT HONOR SEVICE AGREEMENT FROM THE MANUFACTURE. Talked to customer care and they said if I wanted to get a loaner, as promised by contract, I would have to go somewhere else. So I scheduled the repairs in Ontario and they were happy to help. As far as I'm concerned there is NO JEEP DODGE DEALER IN THE HIGH DESERT. Go to Ontario. go to Moss Bro's in San Bernardino you will be happy you did. More

WOW!! I sure wish I read all the reviews prior to contacting this dealer. Like many of you here I'm not happy with this dealer. We saw a vehicle we wanted to purchase and verified was on the lot. We contacting this dealer. Like many of you here I'm not happy with this dealer. We saw a vehicle we wanted to purchase and verified was on the lot. We completed the online application as instructed and drove straight to the dealer. Just before we arrived to the lot, the vehicle was sold from underneath us. Not happy with the dealership with this type of selling tactic. Now the dealer continues to contact us daily trying to get us into another car, however, we already purchased elsewhere and are happy with the other dealer. In the future I will do a better job researching and reading reviews. I do not recommend this dealer as a result. More

This is by far the most unprofessional place of This is by far the most unprofessional place of business it's quite sickening. My fiance and I went in to lease a car and which they pressured us This is by far the most unprofessional place of business it's quite sickening. My fiance and I went in to lease a car and which they pressured us into buying a car. While purchasing the car cash money they proceeded to tell us that the car was never in accident and even gave us a contract stating that and the car fax. Not even three days later while driving down the highway the whole bumper of the car flew off!! Almost hitting the car behind us. Thank God it did not hit anyone. They wanted us to risk our lives on the highway and get the bumper. We then proceeded to take the car into them and Jeff Smiling stated they would not help us because out of 20 years he has never had issues with his car sales.. We then took the cars to collion repair companies. Every collision and body shop we went to said Jeff smiling was lying that they knew the car had been in an accident they said they had painted over the bumper sanded it out and primed it they showed us everything that was wrong with the car which I will be posting the pictures. I then went back with all of these printed facts and all he wanted to offer was 500 hundred dollars if I went to his shop and paid the remaining 1900 to fix my bumper. I asked Jeff smiling so even though you lied and said this car has never been in an accident you're still going to make me pay I haven't even had this car for over a week he proceeded to say yes and laugh. I am now paying to have my bumper fixedfixed through a different collision shop. This man is unprofessional and a definite liar. You think you would be treated better after you spend thousands of dollars for something you thought was reliable and find out it's been in a wreck. I never been so disappointed in my life. If I were any of you I would not buy from this dealership they are about them and them only!! More

Took my Jeep in to get the rear defroster repaired. They gave me a rental and everything seemed awesome. When I got my Jeep back, I noticed they replaced the entire back window. Noticed right away that my gave me a rental and everything seemed awesome. When I got my Jeep back, I noticed they replaced the entire back window. Noticed right away that my Jeep was more noisy than normal. Upon inspection of the back window, I noticed they didn't replace the back window seal. I called the dealer and they had me bring it in for the manager to look at. They told me they would get back to me within the week. Well, I received a phone call stating they would replace the seal for $140 but would not charge me for labor. Really?? Ended up getting the replacement seal online for $29.99 and took me about 5 minutes to install it. They really need to work on their customer service skills. I will never buy another car from them again More

Poor Customer Service Took my Jeep in for the basic service, which is covered under my lease. I made an appointment. When I arrived they said I could use their quick servic Took my Jeep in for the basic service, which is covered under my lease. I made an appointment. When I arrived they said I could use their quick service, as I was just getting a oil change and tire rotation. I speak to an employee and she tells me it will be approximately 3 and a half hours. Not sure why they call this a quick service. When I told her I made an appointment, she didn't seem to care and handed me a card stating I could download an app and wait at home until it is my turn. That's great for people who live close by, but I live 3 towns away. More

Icing on the cake! I am done. I have owned 50 cars in my life. The car I purchased from Victorville Motors is number 50, and it is a 2018 Fiat 500X AWD. I apologize for this be I have owned 50 cars in my life. The car I purchased from Victorville Motors is number 50, and it is a 2018 Fiat 500X AWD. I apologize for this being so long, but its a story you need to hear. Before I continue, it is important that you understand just what I have been through in the past few years. First, we have to go back to 1995 when I bought a new Jeep Wrangler. It was constantly in the shop. It went through three transmissions, a brake master cylinder complete failure, (no brakes), the heater core had to be replaced, the seatbelts three times, and a few other problems all in the first 20,000 miles. I had to go to arbitration with Chrysler over the vehicle. It was resolved after a long fight. Fast forward to 2015. I bought a 2015 Fiat 500 from Ontario Chrysler/Fiat. Absolutely loved the car, but there was a problem with the electronics and they could not fix it after multiple attempts. The dealership bought the car back from me and sold me a new 2015 Jeep Compass. I only had the compass for a short time. One day I had a moment of weakness while in Huntington Beach, and I bought a 2015 Chrysler 200C, traded in the Jeep which only had like 3,000 miles on it. The owner of the dealership, Pete Shaver, sold me the car and lied through his teeth about it and the deal. It was a lease. Five days after I bought the car I took it back to have the navigation software installed, it was supposed to take 30 minutes. I was there all day. Finally, they came to me and told me that all the systems in the car had shut down, they did not know why, and that they needed to keep the car. It was there for 68 days. When I finally got to go and pick it up, the service manager looked me straight in the eyes and told me that he could not, nor would he, guarantee that the car was right, and it wasn't. It was never right. So I went to lemon law on the car. Chrysler agreed to buy it back but required me to pay them $5,500.00 in order to take the car back. They claimed that's how much negative equity I had in the trade, that new Jeep with 3,000 miles on it. I could not pay that money so I was stuck with the car. That car went form $38,000.00 to $14,000.00 in value in less than a year, with less than average miles, so now I have a car that is not right, that I am $24,000.00 upside down in. I could not do anything with the car, I had no choice, I had to let it go back. So now I have a repo. I had a couple of used cars until 2017 when I bought a new Chevy Cruise, loved the car, no issues at all, but I put 30,000 miles on it in a year and I lived on a dirt road and the poor little car just could not take that. So I went to Victorville Motors. Now, I had problems there in the past, so I was hesitant to go back, but I thought I would give them one more chance. Johnathan met me on the lot. I told him that I needed a 4 wheel drive truck. I have a nonprofit organization and we work out in the desert. Our truck is a 1996 Ford F-350 4X4 and it gets 6 miles to the gallon on a good day. I wanted a new truck for myself that I could also use as a scout vehicle so I did not need to feed the beast outside of actual projects. Well, the truck was too much money. We could not fit it into my budget. So Johnathan showed me a 2018 Fiat 500X AWD. He told me that it was built on the Jeep Compass chassis and would have no problem dealing with desert dirt roads. The car was $27,000.00, I got it for $17,000.00, a great deal! I asked about gap insurance and Johnathan told me that I would never need it because I was equitable since I had got such a good deal. I was just a tad upside down in my Cruse, but very little. Johnathan then told me that I had to buy a $3,000.00 extended service contract or Chrysler Capitol would not buy the loan. I believed him, it was a lie. He also told me that the service contract did not kick in (prorate) until I either ran out of factory warranty, or I used any portion of the service contract. That was also a lie. I confirmed all this with the finance manager, and he did confirm. So I went on my merry way in my new 500X. I love the car, it's good looking, it drives nice. but about 6 months after I bought it, I went back to needing a truck, but not 4X4 this time. So I figured since I got such a good deal on the car, that I could trade it. I understand a 25 to 30% drop in value, but as I found out, the car, six months old with only 6,000 miles on it, was now worth only, at best, $13,000.00. So I am now $9,000.00 upside down in a car that I was told I was equitable in. It's a good thing I did not total it, right? I found out at that time that it was a lie about having to buy the extended service contract, it was NOT necessary, that was a lie. I canceled the warranty to lower my payoff and found out then that it had been prorated from the date of purchase, and that what I was told about that was also a lie, as was the future equitable position on the car. At this point, I was really really angry! Remember, I had experienced all those other problems prior. I could not trade the car, even with the service contract cancellation, I was still over $7,000.00 upside down, in some dealerships, it was more like $10,000.00 telling me the car was only worth $10,000.00. Again, I had been hung out to dry by Chrysler, but this time in the worst way. I sent a letter to the owner of Victorville Motors, Tim Watts, that's the name that shows up on the website as the owner. A week or so later, I got a call from Billy Mack, who is the General Manager. He tells me that he is now part-owner, even though it does not say that on the website, still. Anyway, I know Billy, we both belong to the same civic group. He tells me to come in and he will take good care of me, this after my reading my letter that explained everything I have talked about up to now. So I go and see him. He offers to pay me the difference in the prorated warranty and make a payment on the car for me. I, of course, do not turn that down, but I did not ask for it. So we part friends. Now, there are some issues with the car. There is a really bad clunk in the left front end when hitting a bad bump, it is alarming how bad it is. The cruise control fluctuates as much as 8 MPH. The backup camera does not come on sometimes for 8 to 10 seconds. The remote starter does not always work, the center console was lose, and the body creaks and moans like no one's business. I have never heard a car make the kind of noises this one does. I took the car back to Victorville Motors, as one would expect. I made the appointment over the phone and took the car up there. They told me that the warranty covered a rental car. When I got there, I spoke to one service writer and described to him everything that was wrong. He pounded away on his keyboard for a few minutes then sent me down to the other end of the counter to another service writer who completed the work order and got me my rental. I went home. The next day the dealership called me and told me that they could not duplicate the clunk in the front and TOLD ME, they did not ask me, they TOLD ME that I had to come up there right away to drive in the car with the mechanic. So I dropped everything I was doing and drove the 20 miles to get there. The mechanic and I drove the car and could not get it to clunk. It does not do it often, the conditions have to be exactly right, but when it does, as I said earlier, it is alarming, you can feel it through the frame. So we went back to the dealership. They then told me that the car was done. Well, NOTHING was done, they did nothing with the cruise control, nothing with the backup camera, nothing with the remote starting problem, but they did tighten the screw in the consol. When I questioned the service writer, he gave me a very nasty look and told me in a very condescending way that I had not told them about those problems. I told him that I had, the other guy at the other end. He grudgingly reentered everything into his computer and sent on my way. The next morning he called and told me the car was ready. When I got there, he told me that they could not duplicate ANY of the other problems which I find interesting because they duplicate EVERY time I am in the car, the cruise and back up camera issues. I left in total disgust. When I got in the car the low tire pressure light was on that was not on the day before, they gave me my car back with a low tire. I went back but the line in the service drive was so long and I was so disgusted, I just stopped at a gas station and put air in it on my way home. I am very unhappy now, quite furious actually. I waited for about a week and called them back. When I called I asked to speak to either the service manager or the Customer service liaison. I got the liaison. I explained to her what had happened and she said to bring the car back and they would check again. I asked her if they were going to give me a rental again and she said no. Remember, they told me that was covered by the warranty. I cannot be without a car it's just not possible, and they had the car but did not bother to fix it. I got very upset. The call ended with no resolution. A little while later I got a text message from Billy Mack accusing me of bullying women! Well, that's the end of the Victorville Motors story. I will never ever go back, and I will make sure no one I know goes there. They are dead to me. So I took it to another dealership, Ontario Chrysler where I bought the first Fiat and the Jeep Compass. Before I went down there I spoke for some time with the service manager and explained to him in detail everything I had been through, the same story I have told you here. He told me not to worry, he would take care of everything, and that he hears bad things about Vicrotville Motors all the time. When I got there I had to wait for about an hour in the service drive before they got to me. I explained to the service writer everything. He put me in a shuttle to the car rental agency to get the rental. When I got there they told me I had to pay for part of the rental. I lost it! I had been told that everything would be taken care of, another lie. So I called the dealership back and they refused to pay it all, and I lost it. I was very angry, understandably so with all I had been through, and I told them that I was just going to come back and get the car. When I got there the service writer was very unfriendly. I left. Later the service manager called me, chewed me up one side and down the other, and told me that I had made two of his employees cry. I yelled, but I did not say or do anything that would cause someone to cry, that was what I believe to be yet another lie. If not, then he's got some pretty thin-skinned employees that should probably look for another line of work, do we still have PhotoMats? So now I am dealing with Fiat Chrysler directly. There are no other dealerships within an hours drive, I will not go back to Victorville Motors, and I did not want to go back to Ontario. The person I have been dealing with at the corporate level talked me into going back to Ontario, he called on my behalf and made an appointment and told me to call and talk to Cynthia in service to confirm. I talked with her, she was very nice and understood the problems at hand. About 20 minuted later she called back and told me that the service manager would not allow me to bring the car back. Now, I can be a pain in the xxx, but I am only a pain in the xxx when I do not feel that I am being treated right, and I am not an unreasonable person. Customer Service at both of these dealerships is nonexistent, and it's not like I bought a vacuum cleaner, its a $27,000.00 car! So here we are, I cant trade the car, I can't get it fixed, and I just want to douse it with gasoline and light it up. The ONLY reasons I won't do that is because I would still have to pay for it, and its arson and I don't want to go to jail! If you take anything away from this story, it should be, DO NOT buy ANYTHING Chrysler, DO NOT go to Victorville Motors, and DO NOT go to Ontario Chrysler/Jeep/Ram. You have been warned... More
