They should be in jail but, they are pretty slick with - rstpetersburg7

They should be in jail but, they are pretty slick with their deceptive ways. Bought a car two years ago took it for evaluation and took it back. Traded for another car and took that to be evaluated and it had approx. $2300. for repairs told Mirabella I would have it repaired and they said "oh no cheaper for us to have it done" so Dean came to my house and picked up the car and left the other car that I had taken back as the loaner while the car was being repaired. I NEVER saw that car again or my license plate. After hiring a private investigator and atty and getting the Tampa police involved I found out they sold the car on Ebay. The Tampa police detective told me that because they had not signed my Bill of Sale which was a "slight of hand" that she could not arrest them. So, they titled the car that was the original car that I took back to them without my knowing it and one day the forged title shows up in my mail. The Tampa police told me that deceptive practice was common for them and Tallahassee had many claims against them. So, I was not successful in putting them in jail and the current title that I do have has fraud attached to it because it was fraud but, I need to get that released as this is the only car I have and I paid $30,000 cash and can't get my title freed. The woman at DMV says "when you go to the dealership to trade just have them call the fraud dept they will release the title????" What...I need this title now and have waited for the DMV to release it and they know full well the complete story. they are now unresponsive. I have a police detective, private investigator and all my paperwork but, I am getting no where and this has been a nightmare. I would love to make them pay....frustrated...

The staff is helpful but the owners don't care about... - alisa.thomas40

The staff is helpful but the owners don't care about their customers. I was sold a lemon. It has issues with the transmission, ac, belt, computer and the radiator. I asked them to make it right and put me in another vehicle. I was told I would have to make another down payment and add the remainder of my original loan on top of that. Not to mention the vehicle I purchased was listed at over $7000 and was only worth $2000. Do not buy a car here unless you want to overpay & have your vehicle break down before it is paid off. Update They sell lemons and have you pay extra for the warranty. The only problem with that is they refuse to honor their warranties. Good luck if you decide to purchase a car here. You will def be disappointed.

False advertising added $6,000 in fees horrible treatment... - Nymike060810

False advertising added $6,000 in fees horrible treatment nasty attitude all the 5 star reviews are FAKE! They lied and tried to steal $6000 more than the listed price! extremely rude and unprofessional!! Changed the listing price of 10,999 to over $16,000 waited till AFTER I paied to have it added to my insurance to say anything. He said on his website there was $2999 in fees so I guess that means he was just trying to pocket $2000?, kept walking away during the sale, said it was his car, he put alot of work and money into it even though there was a flat tire, broken rear gate, evap leak, bad catalytic converter(I scanned it with obd2 dtc scanner) I drove over 6 hours from PA with a baby and a pregnant wife to be lied to and disrespected by a greesy slimeball hustler conman, I could tell as soon as I pulled up he had an attitude problem, he even cursed at and threatened my wife! I've purchased alot of cars and it was never more than 500-600 dollars to have it registered and fees! I'm disgusted and furious!! to lie

Amazing Service in N. West Palm - hunter18

After being totally exhausted by every car dealer in Vero I found After Lease Auto and they worked with my cheerfully, happily, and after closing time as I didn't arrive until 5. The whole team made the experience a pleasant one. Love my "new to me" car and will definitely recommend them to anyone who needs a vehicle. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another car there although hopefully not for a few years yet!

They are bandidos - tatousa.tamis

They are a dishonest dealer with savage titles they have no words don't believe in them it's the worse dealer ever the fact that they don't care there customers just the money

The service staff at Buzz Leonard Motors was very helpful... - art1966

The service staff at Buzz Leonard Motors was very helpful from scheduling the service appointment, to dropping off my vehicle, answering my questions and making sure I was satisfied. I will continue to use Buzz Leonard for all my future service needs.

If you have all the time in the world to waste. - Astropig

If you have all the time in the world to waste...You've found the perfect dealer.These guys are FANTASTIC about not answering phones,texts or emails. Truly exceptional personal contempt for walk in customers. I don't believe that this is a real,operating business...if it was,they would have shut down years ago.More likely,its a front for one of the Miami area's shadier criminal enterprises.A storefront and a few junk cars out front give them the appearance of a real (shady) used car lot. Thank goodness they would not return my calls or texts or emails.I found a very well cared for used car of the same model for less money with a nice,reputable dealer a few miles away.

I recently purchased a 2017 Ford F-150 from CarMax - Sanford_Proud

I recently purchased a 2017 Ford F-150 from CarMax Sanford, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. The salesperson Devin was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. He was incredibly knowledgeable, and patient, and genuinely cared about helping me find the perfect truck. Devin made everything so easy and stress-free. The vehicle financing process was very smooth, and the transaction speed was impressive. The final vehicle pricing was explained clearly, and my trade-in experience was excellent. The quality of the dealership's service center is very important to me, and CarMax Sanford did not disappoint. If you're shopping for a vehicle, I highly recommend asking for Devin specifically. He will take great care of you!

I had purchased a 2006 Nissan Altima SE-R from this... - altimator06

I had purchased a 2006 Nissan Altima SE-R from this dealership a year ago. Due to my credit, my payment was almost $400 a month. I was told that atfer 12 on time payments I could come back and refinance. Ona recent visit I saw that Car port Sales and Leasing was at a new location on Semoran Blvd in Winter Park, under new management as well. John and Lisa were very friendly and happy to help me. And thanks to them, I was refinanced through CFE Credit Union and they were able to get $100 a month taken off my car payment making it much more affordable. John is a great guy and is willing to bend over backwards to help you get a good deal. Definitely will recommend

Bought a beautiful vehicle from Chris J last week. - Jillyw

Bought a beautiful vehicle from Chris J last week. He made the entire buying experience seamless and quick. I would highly recommend Encore Motors for purchasing a used luxury car. Chris was the best- knowledgeable, patient, and professional. I’m so excited with my new BMW . Thanks guys .

Glad for refund - Curvin

We bought an 08 Chevrolet pickup through Ebay from this dealer in mid-December. They did not deliver the pickup due to title issues and after a month gave us a partial refund. We exchanged many emails and a few phone calls but they did not send the rest of the refund. After two months the Ebay Auction Insurance Company refunded the $7,000 Motorcars of Tampa Bay owed us, for which we are thankful. The entire transaction was online. After this we will go to a dealership when buying a vehicle.

Awesome Buying Experience - swsimmons

Dropped by Nations Trucks on Saturday, February 23, 2019, looking to possibly purchase a Truck. Arrived around 2, looked around, found the one I'd actually been looking for, for nearly a year! Took a test drive, made one offer and I NOW HAVE AN AWESOME TRUCK in my driveway! All-in-all about a 2 1/2 hour process. If you're in the market for a pre-owned truck, you simply HAVE TO GO TO NATIONS TRUCKS in Sanford, Florida. Our salesperson was Robert, and he couldn't have been more friendly, courteous or professional. In fact, the ENTIRE staff was amazing! All the way from Big Country (what an inspirational life he's living), to the General Manager (hope you didn't get in trouble for that awesome deal) to even the Finance Manager. AWESOME selection, AWESOME location & AWESOME people. You can't go wrong! We're absolutely and completely pleased & satisfied with our Nations Trucks Truck. Blessings, Gunny & Izzy

Had a low speed collision at a stop sign less than one... - Rod4life

Had a low speed collision at a stop sign less than one year ago; sun toyota had the car for two weeks to repair/replace the rear bumper,trunk lid, and a cracked light. The paint job was obnoxious (paint runoff, debris embedded within paint, imperfections every inch you look). Still had a dent in bumper. Had the surprise of plastic clips literally spring out of trunk the first time opened. Noticed a bolt hanging down out of place on undercarriage cover, further inspection revealed they had broken the plastic. Even noticed a very oddly shaped dent in drivers door that appears as if they had attempted some degree of repair. All very disappointing but we had the car back and didn't want to bother with it. Well less than one year later the poor paint job began to literally fall off the car; unacceptable and pathetic obviously so we called our insurance. Sadly sun toyota collision center took the car the next week to fix the issue. 6 days later we get a call saying the cars ready. First noticed the paint job is still pathetic (bubbles and debris throughout), drive down the street to notice we now have no turn/brake light (too difficult i guess to reconnect such an important safety feature). We also now have a nice new deep scratch running diagonally on the exterior side of drivers window. Final conclusion is they provide lazy pathetic work (not just once, twice even on a return due to poor work) and will cause extra damage to your vehicle. Ive had much nicer work done at maaco. Please stay away and if you have no choice pay very good attention to your vehicle before and after, if they are consistently doing this to my ride it's not a fluke. They begged and begged for only a 5star review the first time, gladly decided not to review until now.

How refreshing! - tct

How refreshing! Tomlinson Motor Company had the best cars at the best prices, and the prices were the actual prices listed on sites- no added fees of any kind. What a breath of fresh air shopping with them.

I came in there on my birthday to get a vehicle. - Paul

I came in there on my birthday to get a vehicle. The representative was so nice and very helpful. I received my birthday gift to myself and it was beautiful. I recommend anyone to go there and get a car. A++++ It was the Blanding Blvd location..

Deceiving, scammmers, waste of time, and listen to the 1 - Time Saver

Deceiving, scammmers, waste of time, and listen to the 1 star reviews. Avoid these guys at all costs. They listed a 2014 HONDA CRV with 58,000 miles. I talk to a guy named Tony from here. I go to take a 2 hour ride to the dealer as I called Tony before as he said oh yeah cars here. I will set you guys a appointment just come. We get there and this place is doing business in a small trailer. There's over 20 customers here. I go in here with my mother and tell a woman Tony set a appointment for us. She said Tony is our internet salesman he's not here right now. I ask if the HONDA CRV is here. The woman oh if it's here it be at that spot. I go out and it's not there. My mother talking to the woman as she asks oh did you see it online? Oh it may be the cars still getting here or it's already sold. The woman asks what color was it. Mom said white and that woman said oh those pictures may be a car that looks like the same car but it may not be that car listed. We get in our car immediately and call Tony once again. His assistant says oh he's out on lunch he's with his family. So not only did we waste 2 hours driving here, Tony lied about that car being there, he also is helping to scam people on the website from that dealer and I put in a big complaint to cancel these guys from ever selling on cars.com at least. I haven't heard anything at all since but please listen to me. This is as of March 2022. DO NOT DO BUSINESS OR LET THEM EVEN TALK TO YOU! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

NICE EXPERIENCE - Yoli

THIS PEOPLE IS AWESOME , THEY GIVE ME MY DREAM CAR AND SO HAPPY , THEY WORK WITH ME FOR A WEEK AND I GET THE PAYMENT I CAN PAY

Spread The Word - justice

This Guy is a Crook, he buys cars and never fixes anything. He will tell you bring your mechanic to check out the car and if they find anything wrong he will fix. Well guess what? The car has never been checked in the first place. He will have buyers sign a secretive disclosure not to go public with complaints on his stealership. He will lie and say say don't worry it's nothing just typical noise on the car when it needs major repairs. This guy needs a bunch of picket signs in front of his place to show all he's a Crook that has very poor grammar that writes all the POSITIVE reviews on the various car sites about his stealership.

worst car buying experience ever!!! - JDavis

I don't know where to start - this people are scam artist, especially the guy called Jeff and Josh. I bought a C class Benz and car has problems form the date of purchase. I have been at their shop 5 or 6 times, they are no help, Josh guy even pretended like he never sold me the car when he saw me in their office. Now I am stuck with all the repair bills... unfair! but its the reality.

The employees were very friendly and professional! Would... - jillibeandancer

The employees were very friendly and professional! Would definitely recomend Kevin and Sandy McMurphy to help you find your Mazda. I truly enjoyed my time here and hope to buy another car from here again!

Easy, hassle-free buying experience - JoyBoss

Great experience - Scott was very helpful and no nonsense. No hidden fees, everything was spelled out for me, and I didn't get the impression they were "taking me for a ride" just because I'm female. Very pleasant to deal with and very accommodating - didn't push unnecessary add-ons or services. It also helps to do your research - know what you want to see before you go. This was my first experience flying solo and I am so relieved it was a positive one. :)

Impeccable Experience - love2golf

Purchased my second car from Vinnie. I am an out of state buyer so I am picky with whom I deal with when I am purchasing anything sight unseen. Just as with my first purchase, Vinnie made the whole transaction very smooth and pleasant. I had a trade in this time around (the wife wanted to upgrade to a Land Rover) so I was nervous about how everything will work out. Vinnie went above and beyond to address any of my concerns and questions. He even offered to do a video call to show me the car before I drove in! He asked me for the information for my trade and gave me a very fair price which I was happy with. When I arrived to Tampa, Vinnie went over all of the options in the car to make sure that I knew as much about the car as he did and boy did I learn a few things! We never felt rushed or pressured at any point which is nice for a change. I was impressed with his honesty and knowledge about cars the first time around but I’m glad to see that this time around was just as pleasant. It was a pleasure working with you again and we will be seeing you soon since my daughter will be turning 16 in a few months!

Buyer Beware. Do not buy here! - RH

Purchased a 2006 Clean Car Fax Ford F-350 from Octavio Duran. When I called about the vehicle he stated that there were three things wrong whit the truck. Seats were in poor shape, small nicks and scratches and injector seals. After driving away from the dealer ship the Throttle control indicator came on the dash indicating limp mode. I took it to my local dealer where they showed me the damage from the previous accidents from the front and rear of the truck. Tried to conflict resolute and return the truck. I have the emails showing that he agreed to this. He reneged today on that promise by sending me a letter in the mail. Legal action has been started and I have filed a formal complaint via the Florida Motor Vehicle Safety Division.
