Jennifer Perez was a joy to work with and very helpful in coordinating the repairs on my new truck! She was very responsive and ensured everything was taken care of to my satisfaction. More

Added $2250 onto my contract without telling me anything. Promised me the difference overnight. Never received the money. No customer support after sale. A real shame because their prices are good. More

I want to change my rating. Although there were some obstacles, Cheyenne fixed everything for me. She’s awesome.

I think it was lack of communication. Before I went to lunch I was presented a vehicle quote (OTD) of $45,400.42. I signed this piece of paper. Upon my return from lunch, YADI had the paperwork ready. He only asked for a couple of signatures. He hastily put the contract info in a folder and sent me on my way. I checked the details of the agreement when I got home. I was not happy to see that $2225 was added into the final sale price. However, I kept my cool, and contacted YADI the next day. He assured me a check would be in the mail the following day for the difference. It didn’t show up. I called him, and he blamed someone for not sending the check out. He said the check would be in the mail that day. Almost 2 weeks had gone by, and I still didn’t have my check. I gave him the benefit of the doubt, and he disappointed me. I’m not saying he was dishonest. I just didn’t have a good feeling about the whole transaction. When he stopped talking my calls I sent in a negative review. However, Cheyenne was a real sweet heart. She was very helpful. She explained the difference (refund) would be sent to the finance company. Because of her, I will do business with you guys again.
