Process of buying went smoothly however, the sales rep didn't take the time to go over the features & demonstrate how to use them. Our local dealer provides fuel after the purchase yet, this dealer didn't even offer. The vehicle I purchased exceeded my expectations. Very happy with my purchase.

We had a good exoerience with the dealer. We liked the vehical and everone at dealership was easy to work with throughout the procss. The only issue we had was that we could not come to terms that we could agree on
Made an appointment to buy the car and arrive at the dealership to find out they had supposedly sold it I travel to a distant to see this car they didn't contact me to tell me it was sold the night before.and it was still on several car websites a week Later

Honestly don’t know what the deal was with the BOSS of this dealership, i basically wanted to trade in/financed a vehicle with them but they gave me a quick run around that I needed a car inspection to be able to do that, also that I needed to find my own financing first , this place don’t make any sense don’t waste your time

Initial follow up, but then Crickets. Filled out the credit app.... Crickets. Really to bad because I live in Eureka back in the late 80’s and I was very familiar with the dealership Truly disappointed in their lack of professionalism!

Dealer made prompt contact.Car was very
clean and ready for a test drive when I
arrived. The salesman,Zach, was friendly
and professional. Tough negotiators, but I
think we arrived at a fair price.

This was one of the best experiences I have had buying cars. Thanks Leisa.!
A little drive from my home but worth it!
I sent my request overnight. Dealer responded first thing in the morning by email and phone. Got my test drive set up that day. Car was ready to go when we got there. Our salesman Corey was very knowledgeable about the car and was prepared with things to point out to us that we may not have caught otherwise. Extremely nice and genuine people. Would highly recommend their dealership to anyone. Upfront on their pricing and financing. Buddy in the finance office was awesome. Told us what we really needed and what would actually be helpful instead of just trying to push all their products on us. Was a very pleasant experience. Even though they're 1 hr and 15 min away, I'll probably check them out to see what they have when it comes time for my next car purchase.
May 24, 2019
Wonderful people and facility and found the perfect car for me!
Salesman return my inquiry within 15 minutes. Called me and answered all my questions. Very upfront on their pricing. I told them where I wanted to be at on price and we worked out a deal. I drove three and a half hours one way to purchase this vehicle and it exceeded my expectations. Salesman an finance manager eager to help and friendly. I have shopped around for over 2 months looking for a vehicle. And found my match at Sam Leman.

Quick response, great customer service.

Replied with a discounted price the same day thanks

Cody was very helpful but the dealer and myself could not come to an agreed price.
Jul 7, 2017
My salesman-Daniel Sanchez was awesome. I loved everything about this dealership. They found what I wanted and my salesman treated me as if I was the only person there. He was patient and wonderful. I got a great car at the price I planned. Worth the drive and that's where I'll go in the future. Love my dealership!
Jul 5, 2017
Nice people. Did not make a deal but will
certainly return in future.
Jun 13, 2017
Both the salesperson Cody and Business mgr. Buddy worked hard to get it
done for us.

Chad called the next day to talk about this Equinox. He e-mailed the additional info I asked about. I found this SUV during a search and if I wasn't 350 miles away might have purchased it.
Dec 13, 2016
Quick purchase. Fast paperwork. No hassle deal
Dec 1, 2016
very helpful
Nov 29, 2016
Very good
Nov 23, 2016
They helped with what I needed and got back to me quickly and were very friendly.
Sep 29, 2016
Their business hours did not work with my schedule so I was not able to
pursue the vehicle with them. Plus the car did not have all of the options we
wanted.
Jun 7, 2016
We had the absolute best car buying experience here then
anywhere before. Everyone was friendly and professional. No
games! And we didn't have a lot of time. They got us in and out in
no time. We will definitely recommend them.
May 1, 2016
Great experience. The sales man worked to get our vehicle down to aprices we felt good about. Was great to work with over email and in person. The financing pay was painless and very much enjoyed working with the gentleman who took care of that part of the sale as well. Felt they were honest about the vehicle and things were as they described via email. Happy with our experience. Would buy from them again!
Feb 23, 2016
Excellent service. We purchased
our vehicle here after finding it on
carguru
Jan 31, 2016
Very friendly dealership and easy to deal with. Would be willing to trade there again.
Oct 29, 2015
Very nice dealership. Would do
business there again

Leman Eureka really worked with me in
a low-pressure, but earnest way. It was
probably the most honest car-buying
negotiation I've experienced. I
recommend giving them a chance.
Jul 20, 2015
They answered all my questions very promptly and were very helpful.
Jun 26, 2015
The salesman we worked with was very
on top of eveything. We had several
correspondences with him and he was
always very cordial.
Jun 22, 2015
Enjoyed meeting with Pete and taking a test drive. They were easy to talk to and no pushy at all.
Jan 18, 2015
Was a great car at a great price, got an
extended warranty and settled the deal
with a great APR in one sitting. Just not
a fan of salesman being salesman.
Jan 15, 2015
Bought our car here, service great, price great, even though we
were not buying a new car, but a older one under $7000,00 were
treated with courtesy, honesty, would not expect any better than
we received if were spending 5 times what we spent. Salesman
and owner pleasant, helpful and very honest with us. will buy from
them again, and would recommend them to all who ask us.

Sam was very informative and very helpful
Jun 4, 2014
Dealership responded but vehicle sold before I could get there.
May 6, 2014
I only talked with them on the
phone or thru email about a
vehicle but they responded
quickly. Thanks
Mar 15, 2014
Great experience they went straight to
the bottom dollar. There were no price
negotiations needed. Fair and honest
people.
Oct 24, 2013
This dealer made offers by email, like i requested. They are helpful
but not pushy. They were honest about the pricing of their
vehicles. I told them what I was willing to pay, they told me what
they could do.
Oct 13, 2013
I was contacted by e-mail that day. Truck sold before I could look at
it but the salesperson let me know right away.
Sep 29, 2013
They had the vehicle I wanted. It was at the right price. Good to work with them. Josh was great to deal with. No games!
May 14, 2013
Superior, we bought the car. Very pleasent experience, it was our first purchase from the internet. Excelent dealership. Would highly recomend them to anyone looking for a new or used car. WE drove 200 miles to pick up the new car.
