Purchased a 2013 Mercedes S550 from Paul Ciocca. Overall not a bad experience, Paul seemed like a stand up hard working guy and kept me in the loop until pick up was ready. Only 2 stars because the car nee not a bad experience, Paul seemed like a stand up hard working guy and kept me in the loop until pick up was ready. Only 2 stars because the car needed new front brakes and rotors, which A Better Way installed however, they did not use OEM parts and instead used inferior parts which had no manufacturing markings on them. I know this because the brakes were vibrating and squealing from the day I took the car and since I was going to have my mechanic go through the car for me, I would let him inspect the brakes. After it was all said and done, turned out the ABW Wholesale Auto mechanic installed the brake pads incorrectly (arrows pointing wrong direction) and against the grain of the pads and also failed to lubricate all the parts leaving them bone dry, which resulted in the vibrations and loud screeching. The inferior metals used in manufacturing the rotors also resulted in center of rotors completely rusting orange within one week of ownership. Week two, replaced front rotors and pads with Mercedes Benz OEM parts, at my own expense, and problem resolved. Wasn't worth returning to complain, figured since they used cheap parts and installed them incorrectly, I wasn't going waste my time taking the chance that they would do the right thing and replace with OEM parts correctly. Other than that, car is great and Paul was honest and good to deal with. Had the repairs been performed professionally using OEM parts, this would have been a 4 star rating. Review with photos on Yelp. More

the worst experience I ever had with a sales man.Paul Ciocca. I put a down payment on a car of nearly 2000.00. Than I had to get proof oF income so I could purchase the car and finance it. PAUL Lied to m Ciocca. I put a down payment on a car of nearly 2000.00. Than I had to get proof oF income so I could purchase the car and finance it. PAUL Lied to me and sold the car behind my back. Not even a phone call to see how I was making out with my paper work FIRST. I called him to tell him I got everything he needed and HE SOLD MY CAR WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. THE WORST SALES MAN I EVER HAD. I HOPE HE GETS FIRED OVER THIS. This was may second car I bought there and my LAST!!!!!! PAUL CIOCCA IS A LIRER. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS BACK STABBER. More

Absolutely horrible business practices! January 2020, I purchased a Nissan. Pathfinder from them. The next morning, it started smoking, they had it towed to their "garage". Here's a highlight of what happ purchased a Nissan. Pathfinder from them. The next morning, it started smoking, they had it towed to their "garage". Here's a highlight of what happened next: 1. The garage is just a Napa oil change spot with one mechanic and a very young staff. They kept my car for almost a week to tell me something was wrong with the engine and they ordered a new one. Another week to have it installed. They reminded me of the rental reimbursement on the extended warranty. 2. Picked up the car with the new engine, but they forgot to put the bolts in the engine mount. So every acceleration and deceleration, I would hear a clunk. Brought it back again. They told me nothing was wrong. 3. Brought it back again for the same thing and I explained to them what exactly it was (brought it to another shop and got the truth). They kept the car for 4 days and told me I needed a new transmission. There was nothing wrong with my transmission!! Picked it up with the "new" transmission and the idle is all over the place, accelerating erratically on the highway, wouldn't switch to 3rd gear. 2 days later, the transmission finally gives. They tow it back again. 4. This time another week of diagnosis tells them it's a bad transmission (ya think???) And they have to wait for approval of the warranty company to order another one! Another week goes by and they reinstall a "new" transmission. And they tell me they "fixed" my ac as a courtesy to me... 5. Drive out of the parking lot, check engine light goes on. They spend a half an hour resetting the light. Goes back on again so I bring it to a real garage - O2 sensors gone. Bring it back again with all paperwork. Also, the AC is permanently on, never turns off... 6. Meanwhile, I needed a rental and I submitted the $600 bill for reimbursement. That bill was passed around faster than wildfire and it became everyone else's fault. I ended up going to the Better Business Bureau and filed a complaint. Only then did they reimburse my money, stating it was a courtesy...nope, it was a part of the extended warranty that they slide in as a payment! I just recently sold the car and I am so glad to never have to deal with this company again!! Please read the reviews and keep in mind that while they are filling out the purchase paperwork, they wait for you to review them on Google before proceeding. Many of the 5 star reviews come from people sitting at the desk, waiting for their cars!! More

TERRIBLE. They sell you cars with issues and continue to take your money doing sub par service jobs. I’ve had my car a year and been back at service 7 times, each time something else wrong. I bring it to an take your money doing sub par service jobs. I’ve had my car a year and been back at service 7 times, each time something else wrong. I bring it to an actual dealer, and they find something wrong with what the service felt did here. When you call, they yell at you on the phone if you question their work. Just terrible. Do you self a favor and find an actually business that cares. More
