This is what a used car shopping experience should always be like. I felt no pressure to buy, I felt no pressure to rush while testing the vehicle. Nobody tried to convince me to buy a different vehicle. Nob be like. I felt no pressure to buy, I felt no pressure to rush while testing the vehicle. Nobody tried to convince me to buy a different vehicle. Nobody tried to upsell me any kind of extra service...and on and on....After driving from Stuart, Florida to Orlando, Florida to see at least 7 trucks, and each visit turning progressively worst, almost at the end of the day I decided to give this Winter Park dealer a shot. First of all, "winter" in Florida? That was going to be either a good sign or a really bad one. It turned out to surpass my expectations in the most brilliant way. My salesman, Elvis, was open, knowledgeable, and not afraid to ask questions related to the truck. He was not a know-it-all and his Zen-like approach to explaining things was a welcome respite. We took it for a drive, no rush. We put some air in the tires, no rush. We drove back and I mentioned two items that needed fixing (I was going to negotiate...) and he said they would be fixed before I took the truck. Ah, yes...negotiating...There is none! You see, you like, you buy. And if something needs attention, they will fix it before you take the car. I sat down for 15 minutes waiting on the finance guy. You all know the story...lots of mumble jumble while they stick you with fees! This time? Sorry, but my story will disappoint: No hassle, no upselling, no crazy numbers! Jaime rocked! We had the paperwork and tag in hand within 10 minutes! I left the truck for them to fix it and then THEY had to wait for me! I did not have a ride from Orlando and finally got to the dealer around 6pm. And guess what? Elvis was waiting for me before he went home for the day. It turns out that the manager had gone himself to get the parts needed. I am sorry but I did not get his name. Like I said, do not take my word for it but, go pay them a visit and ask for Elvis and then come to this site and tell us your experience. And yes, you have my permission to call me a liar in public if your experience is not as satisfying as mine. Like I said, word of a United States Navy Corpsman: Go see them, I got you. More

And the owner was hands on as well . He worked his butt off to get me the loan I needed and made sure to get me in a car that day .. I really enjoyed the experience.

So. ..we were coming from out of state to purchase a vehicle. Fabio was our salesperson. I will say he was great with communication and answering all ques ..we were coming from out of state to purchase a vehicle. Fabio was our salesperson. I will say he was great with communication and answering all questions in a timely manner. He was there early on the day we flew in to pick up the vehicle. We looked at the vehicle, it wasn't really clean, Fabio said they do not clean or detail their vehicles, they more focus on the mechanics and safety, that is how they keep their prices down. We were ok with that. The vehicle only had one key, so he even gave us the number of a local auto lock person who came within 45 minutes (Todd from Precision Auto Lock 407-978-KEYS, call him, he's great!!!). When it came to the payment portion, Drivers Mart did not accept payment from our credit union (we were pre-approved). They said they do not accept out of state payments (our credit union has local Florida branches)? They did say they would accept a wire transfer, but we would have to come back in a day or two, again we are from out of state with limited time. They kept pushing their financing which was approximately 3% higher. I called the credit union while in the dealership, they said just finance with them so you can get the vehicle and get out of there, we can switch everything when you get home, (they had also spoken to the dealership and were frustrated with their policy). Ok, now we have all that settled. We take the vehicle, return our rental car, and start to head out. We get on the freeway, and the vehicle starts to really vibrate! Yes, we did test drive the vehicle, but only went on the regular and side streets that they had us follow so we never went over 40mph. The vehicle was vibrating so badly we pulled over at a tire repair shop to have them check out the vehicle and suspension (we have a 1800 mile drive home and we have only made it 73 miles at this point. The tire shop was really busy so we had to wait a few hours, but they didn't want us to drive any further because at visual inspection, one tire had a split, one tire had holes in it and 3 of the four tires were all different manufacturers. When they were finally able to get us in, they pulled all the tires off and called us back to look at them. In addition to the two tires we knew were bad, another one had a split. They assured us the suspension was ok, but we should not drive any further, especially not all the way home. My husband examined all the tires and confirmed what they were saying was true. I text Dealers Mart while this is happening, Fabio says to call when we know for sure what the issue is because at this point, we are ready to bring the car back. Before any work was performed, I called Fabio back at Dealers Mart and let him know 3 of the 4 tires are bad and have to be replaced. He tells me his supervisor says they have their cars inspected and that's that, we can bring the vehicle back if we would like. Really? First, we wanted the vehicle, that's why we bought a plane ticket, rented a car and paid for an extra key ($262.15). Second, what are you going to do, sell the car to someone else and put them in danger? Sad!! So, we ended up getting a whole set of new tires ($1082.72), so we can make it home safely. When all was said and done, the person who actually changed our tires, not the salesperson, came out and said he was happy we came in, he said he would have been terrified for us if we had kept driving on those tires. In the end, it was not the best car buying experience. We have purchased many vehicles in our lifetime and from out of state as well, never any issues such as we had here. What really upsets me is the lack of regards for people's safety and not taking any responsibility. Yeah, at first the price was good, but not in the end , and not at the cost of our safety? More

I was sold a 2017 Cadillac XT5. After getting the car off the lot, the service engine light popped on. I called. They said they would take care of it. They ordered the wrong part fo After getting the car off the lot, the service engine light popped on. I called. They said they would take care of it. They ordered the wrong part for my car. They tried to take it to a muffler shop, and the muffler shop would not install the muffler that they ordered for my car. This has been going on for over a month. If you are a person that does not have a lot of money stay away from this dealership. You can end up with a car that has an expense that you cannot afford. I keep getting the runaround regarding the fixing of my exhaust system. They have had my car longer than I have and nothing has been fixed, I get a call two weeks later after my car has been in there shop. If they don’t want to fix it, that’s all they have to say. More
