Mark was very pleasant and friendly and gave me all the info I wanted. He even held the car for me, but I decided not to buy the car, but I will go back to this dealer again due to his wonderful service and willingness to go the extra mile. Awesome salesperson

Response from current dealership:
We were nothing but professional and courteous. I wish I could have helped the customer with the financing and payment terms they wanted but it just didn't work out. No need to give us a poor review.

Made an appointment then they left a message because they took a deposit from another buyer the day before. So I never went, I wasn’t interested in a different vehicle.

Response from current dealership:
We always ask a customer to leave a deposit to hold the vehicle for them. Unfortunately the customer was unwilling and the vehicle was sold.  We contacted them ASAP so they didn't make the trip to our dealership to see a vehcile that was no longer available. Sorry it didn't work out.

I let the dealer know via email twice the night before that I was coming to test drive the vehicle in the morning. When I arrived, the person I had been communicating with told me that he had taken a deposit on the car the day before. We travel 2 hours to get there. I had already filled out the credit application as well. Very upsetting.

The dealership contacted me the day after I reached out to them about a vehicle. They were. It pushy and simply called to confirm that the vehicle was still available and that they would love to have me come by and see it.

They gave me the keys to take a car for a ride. I couldn’t get back to their place fast enough it was a menace to have the car on the road. Said they hadn’t had it in their shop yet. So why give it to someone to it drive?!! Thought the front end was going to fall off.

Truck was beautiful, as long as you didn't look underneath it. Informed dealer I was coming from 90 miles away and to disclose any issues to save me a trip. He said it was beautiful...no issues.

As i walk in it was just a depressing feeling to the room, the man that greeted me just handed me the keys and i told him all the things that are wrong and all he had to say was that the car was really cheap. Anyways customer service was horrible

Traveled a long way to take a view at a truck, that had been a "clean" accident free record. Looking at the truck and all the qualities it was easy to tell that it had without a doubt been in an accident. When we told the guy he was quite snappy, trying to make me feel like an idiot.

Guy touted the car to drive like new (i know, common..right?!) …Prior to even leaving lot, the car would SLAM, and i mean "!!!SLAM!!!" into gear. Car was SHAKING and JOLTING (also, a common issue with 2008 explorers) Guy told me it was cause it was a big engine. Umm, dude..THATS called a transmission issue.. Said he would have his "GUY" look it over. Told him about it being a common issue. He said he didn't see that info online. DUDE…ITS ALL OVER THE PLACE...The guy told me he "thought" the fluid was low. Offered a comprehensive warranty for FREE for two years for me to sign the deal, right then and there. Why do i get the feeling they know exactly whats wrong with it, and they offered that coverage due to the fact they KNOW the issue is not covered under the warranty… Clutch sure wasn't covered for the manual transmission under warranty…so who knows what part of the automatic transmission was LEFT OUT of the warranty.. Bottom line, had he acknowledged the issue off the bat, without going in circles about unrelated car parts being TOO big lol, and actually just FIXED THE ISSUE, i would have purchased. Car was nice otherwise, but the shady doings of going about getting a car off the lot will cause me to never ever go back, and I have already ran my issue past everyone I know, and the general consensus is there was some shady shenanigans goin on over at Cos Central…..
