I had a very disappointing experience with this dealership when I bought a Santa Fe in 2004. Granted is was 4 years ago, but I still get angry when I think about it. In a nutshell, we agreed on dealership when I bought a Santa Fe in 2004. Granted is was 4 years ago, but I still get angry when I think about it. In a nutshell, we agreed on a price and monthly payments, did the credit check, signed the papers we drove the car off the lot. The next day the manager called and said the payments would be $35.00 higher. Something about the loan. We're not that savvy about all this, so we said okay. But it did seem strange to me. I guess if we said no, they'd come to pick it up. Then the manager said we needed to fax a copy of our utility bill to him for proof of residency. I went to the local mail service, faxed it that afternoon and got a receipt. About 8pm that evening, after dark, while I was cleaning up after dinner, someone started pounding on our door! I was very startled and called my husband to see who it was. It was some guy from the dealership the manager sent over demanding the utility bill, telling me they needed it "NOW"!! This time we were furious! I showed him the receipt from the fax and told him to get off my front door! I called the manager and told him I sent him back his goon, and to look around for the fax. Oops... "sorry"...he gave me a certificate for 5 free services. I've forgiven, but I have not forgotten. I wont be doing business with them again. Too creepy! More

Service writer informed me that it would cost $105 to investigate complaints such as squeaking brakes and mysterious noises in gas tank when driving. Only if a new part were needed would the charge be w investigate complaints such as squeaking brakes and mysterious noises in gas tank when driving. Only if a new part were needed would the charge be waived. I don't expect something for nothing but do expect a warranty to be honored. I was also told, without him even looking, that there were no recalls on my vehicle ... so far I have found a on the internet a possible six recall notices. More

This Douglas franchise also owned a Nissan dealership in Huntington Beach. Their sales process includes adding alarm and service warrantee packages to the contract after the monthly payment has been agreed Huntington Beach. Their sales process includes adding alarm and service warrantee packages to the contract after the monthly payment has been agreed on. They also fail to honor the legal cancellation after you figure out what happened. They have lost their Nissan franchise and they may not be here when you need help with your Hyundai. Constant phone calls and fax's do not get their attention. This is a clear violation of the Car Buyers Bill of Rights and warrants legal action. The only problem is making up your mind that you want to deal with attorneys and the car dealership for that long. They are really unsavory people, smiling, agreeing, apologetic and then ignoring you. Good luck with buying a car from these people. More

My experience with the salesperson Jonathan was very good, he was very laid back and actually listened to me--rare for a car salesperson--when I explained my wants, concerns, and questions. My exper good, he was very laid back and actually listened to me--rare for a car salesperson--when I explained my wants, concerns, and questions. My experience with Dave the sales manager, however, was not quite as good. All the emails I received from him have been quite pushy and assumptious about my decisions. I was quoted a price over the phone, and then when I went to the dealership, he showed some negative number on a printed sheet of paper, and wanted me to pay half of that number. Basically, to pay like $300 more. My girlfriend sat beside me and she felt uncomfortable even though he wasn't even talking to her. He got angry at one point when I wouldn't budge, when he finally agreed on the price, he was like a completely changed person, all nice again. Another thing about the dealership that I don't like is the fact that they put a $2,000 "Appearance Package" on all the cars that they sell. $2,000 for VIN etching, paint sealant, and door guards--a wheel well molding was listed under the package, however, there weren't any on all the Elantras there.... Besides the appearance package, the rest of the sales process was pretty clean, no added fees or anything in the financing office either, just recommended the extended warranty. Overall I had a pretty good experience--mostly because of the salesperson, Jonathan. More
