The salesman that helped me out (David) was nice and approachable and didn't seem like a snake. He answered all my questions and was polite. I test drove the vehicle and found it fitting for what I was approachable and didn't seem like a snake. He answered all my questions and was polite. I test drove the vehicle and found it fitting for what I was looking for. However, while driving home and having the chance to get up to 55mph+ I noticed a horrible vibration and the radio did not work. Odd for 2019 Honda Civic. Once home (it was dark now) the interior lights did not work upon exiting the vehicle. Again all odd on a 2019 with just 11K miles. The issues have been resolved but Automax uses some slick shady practices to sell and finance their cars upon further research. As a repeat customer I will never purchase a vehicle from them again. My prior purchase before this one was not that pleasant, but I'm an understanding person that gives people benefit of the doubt. They absolutely took advantage of this. Can't wait to get rid of this vehicle. More

The sales staff was great helpful and informative to the vehicle that I purchased. I Enjoy the non-pushy salesman’s approach. It was good to see a familiar face after all the years buying cars there.

Felipe Calcano was amazing! He welcomed us as soon as we arrived. Introduced himself, and asked if we were looking for anything in particular, stated he would be available if we had any questions. I asked h arrived. Introduced himself, and asked if we were looking for anything in particular, stated he would be available if we had any questions. I asked him to show us vehicles of my choosing, and he did. Gave us all pertinent info., and during the test drives, he explained features. Very relaxed, not pressured atmosphere! Jessie Smith, finance mgr. explained all paperwork, and even though it looked like we'd be there all day, we weren't! I'd definately recommend Auto Max to everyone, and make sure you look for Felipe!! More

The car had multiple things that weren't cleaned streamlined as we could. First, they wouldn't accept our bank loan for some unknown previous reason. The car had multiple things that weren't cleaned and since of the armrests were damaged. They wouldn't budge on price despite the damage and nearly $5k over the listed price on random fees. Finally the finance department did their checks for financing the vehicle and it showed up as two separate hard credit checks. More
