Brought my new car to the service department at 9:00 am for my free "First Service" appointment - oil change and tire rotation. There were 7 cars in line ahead of me in the service bay. I sat in my car ( for my free "First Service" appointment - oil change and tire rotation. There were 7 cars in line ahead of me in the service bay. I sat in my car (since I was blocking traffic) for a few minutes and no one approached or offered any information. I went inside and after waiting a few minutes was asked my name and was told they were pretty busy and the service would take "at least 2 and a half hours". No apologies, no explanation. Why make appointments if they don't mean anything? Will not be going back. More

Do not do business or buy from this dealer. About a week ago I traded in my car for a pre-owned they had on their lot.

The car I traded in had a few modifications to it, one of them being aftermarket wheels. I made it very clear to my sales guy that I was going to bring the stock/original wheels back to the dealership and take my aftermarket wheels with me. When I asked why it wasn’t in the “we owe you” section that we signed, he made up some excuse and reassured me that if I was back in a few days, there would be no issues. I called multiple times to try and schedule the exchange, and go no response back. Then they proceeded to sell the car before I could get back there with the stocks (3-4 days). Now they’re telling me those conversations never happened and they don’t have it in writing anywhere. Sketchy place that doesn’t care about their customers. Beware More

DO NOT trust this dealership! Financial specialist Jason R. put an extended warranty ($5400) into our contract without explicitly explaining what it was or offering an option to d Financial specialist Jason R. put an extended warranty ($5400) into our contract without explicitly explaining what it was or offering an option to decline when setting up our monthly payment options. It wasn’t until my husband and I sat down and thoroughly looked through the paperwork to understand why the cost was SO much higher than reviewed on the floor that we realized this OPTIONAL feature was added onto our plan WITHOUT OUR CONSENT OR KNOWLEDGE. We IMMEDIATELY cancelled the plan both in writing and in person. All within 48 hours of the sale. When we met with Jason in person, he was argumentative and dismissive of our decision to cancel- saying “no one EVER says no” and insisting we were making a mistake. We shouldn’t have had to battle to remove an UNWANTED, unexplained warranty that we didn’t even request. It was SHADY salesmanship to the T. My husband even had to go back inside before we left to request a copy of the cancellation since we were not given one (which good thing- turns out we needed it). After a month of no updates, I went back to Mazda and manager Jake explained it took 4-8 weeks and assured the money would be deposited. No further contact or refund approaching 13 weeks. Cue the plethora of back and forth emails that followed— most dismissive— non of which the GM Trey R. responded to. I had to reference the breech of contract multiple times (far past the 30 day guarantee refund) and my desire to look into legal support to finally get answers and well, finally the refund. FINALLY got a refund on a warranty I cancelled 15 weeks after the request. What an absolute headache that could have been avoided with just standard, good practice. As a first time car buyer, I failed putting my trust is Mazda. Guess that’s why they warn you not to trust salesmen, right? More
*Disappointing Experience at Stafford Brown Mazda – Would Not Recommend** I recently had a very disappointing experience at **Stafford Brown Mazda in Fairfax** and felt compelled to share my story to help Not Recommend** I recently had a very disappointing experience at **Stafford Brown Mazda in Fairfax** and felt compelled to share my story to help others avoid the same mistakes. I live about an hour and a half away from the dealership, so I made sure to call ahead and ask if they were willing to negotiate a bit on the price of a used car I was interested in. Over the phone, they said yes. However, when I arrived in person after a long drive, they flat-out refused to negotiate. That should’ve been my first red flag. Still, I decided to go ahead with the purchase and traded in my old vehicle. The dealership operates in two stages: first, the sales team, who are all smiles and only highlight the positives of the car. Once you commit, you are sent to the finance department, and that’s where things go downhill fast. The finance staff were rude, unprofessional, and extremely pushy. Immediately, they began pointing out “issues” with the vehicle I had just agreed to buy, clearly aiming to **scare me into purchasing an extended warranty and other overpriced add-ons. They also sold me a service contract that turned out to be nearly three times the market price. On top of that, they charged me **\$949 for “consumer service,”** which I was told covers ongoing support—but honestly, it felt like I paid that for nothing. **No service or support was provided after the transaction. The next morning, when I realized I had been overcharged for the service contract, I reached out to cancel it. That’s when the real frustration began. **There was zero after-sale support**. The person who had handled my deal became unavailable due to illness, and no one else stepped up to take responsibility. Eventually, Pere tried to help, and while I appreciate his effort to put a bandage on the situation, it hasn’t been enough to fix the experience. In short, this dealership is all about making the sale—after that, you’re completely on your own. A name as big as Stafford Brown should know better. They would benefit greatly from opening a dedicated customer service department for post-sale issues, especially considering how many problems they create during the buying process. Also please read previous revies and you will find lots of clients have issues with the finance department. I don't know why the managers and top level guys are okay with this type of experiences. **Bottom line: I regret buying from this dealership and would strongly advise others to look elsewhere.** More
