Maple Shade Mazda

They are the most unethical dealer you will ever deal with. First, they tried to trick us into paying an extra $500 dollars on our downpayment by hiding some numbers in the projection. After we worked th with. First, they tried to trick us into paying an extra $500 dollars on our downpayment by hiding some numbers in the projection. After we worked through that, we signed a sales agreement and put down a $500 dollar deposit and awaited their call to pick up the car. The same day we were scheduled to pick it up, they called and said they had sold it to someone else!!! They could offer no reason why I had not been contacted before that happened. But they said they work work out another deal to make amends. Then they tried to sell me another car for $30 more a month and said that was the best they could do. Sales Manager Adam Dimmerman and the owner treated me like I was unreasonable for being upset and tried repeatedly to make it my fault this had happened. Then they refused to give me back my deposit until I gave the the sales agreement! The agreement they did not honor! Rest assured I made copies of everything before returning. It even appears they are posting 5 star reviews of themselves on Edmunds (not bright enough to change their user names). They are complete scumbags! RUN DON'T WALK to any dealer other than Maple Shade/Turnersville Mazda, you can't do worse. More

I had my car damaged while parked at a parking garage. The garage said they would pay for the damages. This mazda dealership took full advantage charging way more than necessary. However that is not my co The garage said they would pay for the damages. This mazda dealership took full advantage charging way more than necessary. However that is not my complaint, as I had nothing to pay. That just shows how dishonest they are. My complaint is that they damaged the rear bumper and would not take responsibility for it! They denied they did it, when I know for a fact the rear bumper was 100% undamaged when I dropped the car off. I have warned the garage insurance company to stay clear from them from now on. I am also urging all those reading this review to beware as well. There are plenty of other, honest mazda dealerships out there. More

We were interested in a Mazda CX-7 (we had checked the online Kelly Blue Book before starting out). We arrived at Maple Shade Mazda latish in the afternoon. We were interested in a particular used Mazda CX-7 we had seen on their online listing in Kelly Blue Book, but we were told it was not available. Instead, we were shown, and test drove, a 2007 Mazda 5 which had about 18,500 miles on it. We were told it was available for $15,950. We liked the car but not its color. Initially we were told it was the only one available. So we asked if another one (perhaps from a different year) might become available in the next week or so with a different color. We were then told that a black used 2008 Mazda 5 with 18,500 miles was available after all (although it seemed odd that it appeared to have been overlooked initially, after 7 hours of looking for a car with two little kids we didn't ask why - in hindsight, we should have asked). We were told the price for this car was $16,890. We ended up paying $16,090 for it, after trading in our old car ($400 credit) and rejecting what they called the `certification' (another $400). The following day we checked the Maple Shade Mazda online listing in the Kelly Blue Book and found THE SAME CAR WE HAD ORIGINALLY TAKEN FOR A TEST DRIVE. It WAS LISTED BY THEM for $14,650 INSTEAD of the $15,950 THEY QUOTED TO US when we were in their shop/showroom. The listing included two other 2008 Mazda 5s (which they did not mention to us when we were there) which had only 12,000 miles, but were listed at the same price they quoted us for car which had 18,500 miles. The DISCREPANCY BETWEEN THE PRICES ONLINE AND THOSE QUOTED IN THE STORE left us feeling that they had been less than straightforward with us - that THEY TOOK ADVANTAGE OF A TIRED FAMILY WITH TWO LITTLE KIDS. The following day we went back to the store/showroom to complain. We eventually met with the manager (a 5 minutes conversation) who said that "we should have done our homework first, before purchasing" (which to us meant "you should not have trusted us"). He also asked us "if we had been under the influence of alcohol when we purchased the car." So we are writing to express our dissatisfaction with the way we were treated by Maple Shade Mazda -- and by the manager in particular. HOW MANY e.g., ELDERLY PEOPLE who do NOT HAVE EASY ACCESS TO THE INTERNET have similarly been QUOTED PRICES in the MAPLE SHADE MAZDA STORE/SHOWROOM which are SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER than what is QUOTED ONLINE? We do not think this is a particularly ethical way to do business, and we hope our experience will convince people, especially people with no internet access, to BUY THEIR CARS SOMEWHERE ELSE, somewhere where the sales people and management WORK WITH rather than against the customer. Needless to say, our experience has soured our feelings for Mazda North America sufficiently for us to take the time to write this letter and to share our story as widely as possible. More
