Tom Dolan's Reno Mazda Kia

I paid 3000.00 down signed the papers and went homw and looked at my paperwork. They never put my 3000.00 on my principle. It's as if I never gave them the money. The loan I got from them gets bigger as looked at my paperwork. They never put my 3000.00 on my principle. It's as if I never gave them the money. The loan I got from them gets bigger as I pay it down. I even pay 100.00 more then my payment. I think this place is to run through mexicans and pour people. They are very disrespect when you question them and they badger you and make threats to take my car away because Im asking questions. More

I left Reno Mazda Kia with a newer but lesser Mazda3 model. Two weeks later I was told to come back in to finalize our deal. They conjured up a new deal that was twice the interest rate I had walked o model. Two weeks later I was told to come back in to finalize our deal. They conjured up a new deal that was twice the interest rate I had walked out with. I told them I was not signing that deal and wanted my car back. Unfortunately for me, they sold my trade-in and essentially forced me to sign a new deal. A month goes by and I'm getting calls from my old trade-in's bank saying I'm 28 days late on the payment. So, i made two payments on a car that had been "sold" and was not in my possession! Unreal. Anyway, it has been 3 months and I still don't know to whom i am making new payments. No one at the dealership will return my calls or even answer for that matter. I sent a demand letter and that was a joke to them since none of my demands have been met. I'm still in the process of figuring out what to do about this but in the meantime i would not EVER recommend this dealer. I was told I was a xxxxx when i got frustrated about the whole thing by the dealership manager. Just a bunch of jerks who want to screw people over. More

I would rate this dealership beyond negative because this place is a rip off, dealers and manager take advantage of young people buying cars like me, but thanks guys I'm twice wiser now when it comes to buyi place is a rip off, dealers and manager take advantage of young people buying cars like me, but thanks guys I'm twice wiser now when it comes to buying a car, but I'm sure not coming to buy another car from you guys ever again in my life and I wouldn't recomend your dealership to anyone, because what you've done to me before is enough and very wrong. I bought a used car mercury mystic there and I wasn't satisfied with the car for one day and I was trying to return it to get a new car for the same price and the dealer and the manager wouldn't exchange it because I bought the used car the same price like it was new, the dealer didn't have a conscience to tell me that the car was over price, what a rip off. I made a very big mistake coming there, it made my life xxxx. I can't believe people would do anything to get money, heres what I can tell you money is not everything, its the trust that counts. Please don't ripped off young people like me who are innocent on buying cars. God is watching us always remember that. More

This is the second time we have purchased a car from this dealership and have loved the experience. Greg Price is always very helpful and easy to work with. Both times, Greg went the extra mile to ensure t dealership and have loved the experience. Greg Price is always very helpful and easy to work with. Both times, Greg went the extra mile to ensure that the deal went as smoothly as possible. I recommend everyone to at least stop by and check out this dealer if you are interested in buying a new car. More

No way they totally screw you. You tell them what you want and they dont listen, and over price you so u end upupside down, run, run fast away. We called them the next day all day no one would talk to u want and they dont listen, and over price you so u end upupside down, run, run fast away. We called them the next day all day no one would talk to us or return our calls. I wrote a letter to the owner they said they couldnt help us, and then gave us $300 so wed leave them alone. ANYWAYSSS More

I want to emphasize that I will never consider Reno Mazda Kia as a dealer with whom I wish to do business. In June my wife and I spent the better part of 2 weeks trying to make a deal on a car at their lot f Kia as a dealer with whom I wish to do business. In June my wife and I spent the better part of 2 weeks trying to make a deal on a car at their lot for her business use. After several visits and several phone calls with their sales rep Brian and a sales manager, whose name escapes me right now, we agreed on a price on a Friday evening on the telephone. I was out of town but told your sales manager I would be in on Sunday to pick up the car, a 2007 Kia Optima. He agreed to hold the car. On Sunday after calling and leaving a message for the sales manager that we would be in about noon to pick up the car with cash in hand, I showed up to take delivery. Imagine my surprise to find that they had sold the car to another party on Saturday. My wife was devastated, and the only explanation we received was that we should have canceled our out of town plans and returned to Reno to pick up the car on Friday. This after almost 2 weeks of negotiations on price. Had they met my price on Thursday instead of calling me back on Friday while on the road, we would have made the deal before leaving town. Finally, after being snubbed and ignored for 45 minutes while someone tried to find our now non existing car, I drove across the street to Allison Automotive and 20 minutes later purchased a Hyundai Sonata. As it turned out, this car was a much better deal with the V6, sunroof, and many more options than their 4 cylinder Optima. Needless to say, our buying experience there was also much more pleasant and I will recommend them to everyone I associate with. My wife and I are recent transplants from California after selling a SERVICE business (emphasis on service) we owned and operated for 30 years. I am now the operations manger for a 270 unit townhome complex off of South Meadows Parkway (right in your new locations back yard) and have daily contact with all of the residents. My wife is a sales agent for a local credit card processing company who meets with 3 to 5 business people daily and contacts many more by phone. We also live in Sommerset in the Del Web Sierra Canyon Community and are very active in the community. Our experience with this dealership is detailed on their bulletin boards and on their website. This dealership was our first experience with a local Reno business, so it will forever remain in our minds. At every opportunity, we try to detail our experience with this dealership and that of their competitor. Guess who wins and who loses! More

I had to go back to the dealership 3 times because of mistakes they made on the paperwork. The smog certificate that they gave me initially was expired and when I went back to get another one, they gave mistakes they made on the paperwork. The smog certificate that they gave me initially was expired and when I went back to get another one, they gave me a certificate that belonged to another customer. So, I had to go back yet another time to get the correct one. They also printed the extended warranty paperwork incorrectly, which lead me to going back a third time. They seemed rather unapologetic to me about the hassle I went through too. More

They pulled the switch interest rate scam on my mother. She is a 75 year old widow,and this was her first car purchase on her own. She told them from the start that she could not make a payment of more tha She is a 75 year old widow,and this was her first car purchase on her own. She told them from the start that she could not make a payment of more than $175 a month. So they kept running back and forth to the credit department and the sales manager. The usual routine. She was about to walk out (I wish she had) when they came up with a suitable deal. Or so she thought. She signed the papers for a 7% intrest rate, and took the car home. Two weeks later they call and say she needs to come in. So I go with her and low and behold they tell her that they can't give her the 7% rate, unless she puts down more cash. The new rate would be 10.9% and her payments would now be $225 a month. She tells them no way can she do that, just give me back my old car, and I'll go home.They try the rental routine and she let's them know that it is illegal to do that. So now that they will lose this sale they go back to the agreed payment plan.<br>Stay away from people that try to cheat widows!!!! They will surely try to cheat you too!!!!! More

My daughter attempted to purchase her first car here. Things went well, she selected a vehicle, completed all the paperwork, and took the car home with the promise that there would be no problem financin Things went well, she selected a vehicle, completed all the paperwork, and took the car home with the promise that there would be no problem financing the deal. I infact told the salesman, the closer and the finance manager, that we would wait and not take the car home if they felt there would be any problem with the financing.<br><br>After three weeks of following up with them almost daily, they could not secure the financing and wanted us to come in and pick another vehicle and work a new deal. We were not willing to do this and turned in the cas as we wanted to go elsewhere.<br><br>They stipulated that we had signed a "rental agreement" which obligated us to pay $50.00/day if we couldn't get financed. We negotiated this down to $300.00.<br><br>We purchased another vehicle a week later and the financing went through in a week. We were never asked to sign a "rental agreement".<br><br>I have since learned that "rental agreements" are illegal in this state and I am attempting to get my daughter's money back. I don't want to see her pay $300 just to learn the lesson that some people will lie to you. More
