STOP... Proceed with caution: Brought a new Mazda in for 1st service. Abdul at the service center was pleasant and tried to call Mazda to honor a complimentary oil change we had from another dealership, how More

Sheryl, I'm so sorry that you feel you had a one star experience. My team really strives everyday to provide great customer service but sometimes fall short. It is true that we do not except competitor's coupons or combine digital and printed coupons for the same service. I'm afraid there was a misunderstanding regarding the price. Our advertised price for a full synthetic oil change is $69.95 (https://www.openroadmazdaofeastbrunswick.com/offerdetails-OEM-East-Brunswick-New-Jersey--Full-Synthetic-Oil-Change-PLUS-241581). With the available $10 discount the correct price is $59.95. With that said, however, never want $10 to get in the way of a good relationship and would be happy to extend a 10.00 discount to your next scheduled full maintenance (not to be combined with other offers). Please contact me directly so that I may provide you a redeemable coupon. Best, Paul Seetoo (General Manager). Paul.Seetoo@OpenRoad.com

Knowing things are crazy right now, I fully expected it to be challenging, to say the least, to buy a car. I was very pleasantly surprised at how easy Mike made it at the Mazda dealership in East Brunswic More

Worst dealer ever; extremely unprofessional and deceptive! We worked a deal with one of their sales associates (Marvin Sanchez) on a new 2021 CX5 and put a deposit accordingly. When we went to pick More

Sahar, I'm so sorry you feel you had a poor experience. As a member of the community for about 40 years, we do our very best every day to provide great customer experiences. I had an opportunity to speak with the team that you worked with during your two visits. While you did negotiate the selling price of a new 2021 CX5, (getting an outstanding deal by the way) before leaving a deposit, you apparently didn't take into account the APR and financing charges and how they impact your monthly payment. Your purchase was structured with the Special APR offered this month by Mazda Financial Services. You wanted a better rate. While no better rate existed for the terms you wanted, we offered to split an ADDITIONAL discount to better fit into your financial limitations. At the end of the day, we were unable to come to an agreement. A check request was sent to our accounting office the next day to refund your deposit. While refunds are usually processed at the end of each month, I will ask my office to make an acceptation and process your refund early next week. I would be happy to discuss further should you like. Best, Paul Seetoo (General Manager).

Thank you for your prompt response but this is not what happenned, this is what they claim had happenned. We did negotiate the APR and wrote everything down as a preliminary agreement including the APR and signed it. While signing the papers, they said the APR the associate negociated with us does not exist and that he was not aware of the change!!! We asked them to honor the pre-written and signed agreement but they refused. Also, they should have made us aware of this issue before making us sign all the papers and get ready to pick up the car!!! They are totally unprofessional!

evgueni37, We're so sorry that you feel you had a poor experience. While we try to accommodate every guest's unique schedules, without a deposit on a specific car of interest we do our very best to hold the car until an agreed upon appointment time. When another party showed an interested for the same car you inquired about, you were given a courtesy call with another opportunity to leave a deposit and/or to get to the dealership ahead of the scheduled appointment. Especially during these unique times when there is an unusually high demand for pre-owned cars, we suggest to everyone (both in person and over the phone/internet) that they leave a deposit to hold a car until an agreed upon appointment time. We don't believe this is unreasonable considering the higher than normal demand for all of our quality pre-owned cars and certainly should not be categorized as "disgusting dealer antics".

Open Road Mazda responded

Dear Lmg2744: I am sorry to hear about your experience with us. I regret that our process had broken down, which is to say, reserving a vehicle usually requires a fully refundable deposit or a clear understanding that the car could be sold prior to arrival. Sadly, neither had been explained to you and I apologize for that. I assure you however, the intent was not to purposely mislead you. I would love the opportunity to speak with you personally and try to make up for your lost time by finding another satisfactory vehicle for you with special pricing for your inconvenience. To that end, please call me at (732) 723-5541 or send me an email at leo.angelicola@openroad.com. Again I apologize for the substandard experience! Sincerely, Leo Angelicola General Manager Open Road Mazda of East Brunswick
