Eric, we take customer feedback seriously and would like to clarify a few points regarding your experience. 518 Auto Sales does not require customers to write reviews as a condition of vehicle delivery. We simply encourage customers who have had a positive experience to share it with others. In this case, the financing process required additional communication and cooperation with the lender after delivery. Our team made repeated efforts to reach you regarding the necessary financing paperwork, but went more than a month and a half without receiving a response to our request for a phone call. Staying in communication is essential when a lender requires additional information or documentation to finalize financing. Ultimately, arrangements were made to retrieve the vehicle, which was returned with over 1,000 additional miles compared to its mileage at delivery. We understand that vehicle concerns and financing complications can be frustrating, particularly when purchasing a first vehicle for your daughter. However, resolving these matters requires timely communication and cooperation from all parties involved. We respectfully disagree with the suggestion that we were unwilling to work toward a resolution. We have a responsibility to our customers, our lenders, and our business to ensure transactions are handled properly. We remain willing to discuss the outstanding concerns directly and professionally to determine an appropriate path forward.

I certainly appreciate this response - however, I disagree with your timeline as well as communication records. Your platform does not integrate the specific cell phone logs as well. With that being said I have tried reaching out for over 1 week since the car was voluntarily towed by 518 (as I had offered at my expense). Reasonable (not excessive) mileage was put on this vehicle, as documented through pictures of the odometer and odometer statements provided upon purchase. In addition - 2 brand new tires were installed on the vehicle (documented through receipts and text communication) 2 days after purchase as the tires on the vehicle were dry-rotted. I am willing to remediate this situation if you can simply have Wendy call me with a solution.

I appreciate 518’s public response and would genuinely like to bring this matter to a fair and amicable resolution. However, I believe several statements in your response deserve clarification. Regarding communication: I respectfully disagree with the suggestion that I was unresponsive for over a month and a half. Throughout this process, I communicated with 518 through direct cell phone calls, text messages, and Facebook Messenger. These communications are documented. While your internal communication platform may not capture every interaction, that does not mean those conversations did not take place. Regarding mileage: The mileage accumulated on the Jeep was reasonable and consistent with normal use of a vehicle purchased for my daughter. The mileage was also documented through odometer photographs and the paperwork provided at the time of purchase, as well as when the vehicle was returned. I do not believe it is fair to characterize normal vehicle usage as excessive, particularly when the mileage can be independently verified. Regarding the vehicle’s condition: Just two days after purchasing the Jeep, I had to replace two tires because they were dry-rotted. This was an immediate safety concern, not an optional expense. The replacement is documented through receipts and text communications. This was in addition to the cooling-system and 4x4 issues previously reported. Regarding the vehicle’s return: I offered to have the Jeep towed back to 518 entirely at my own expense. Ultimately, 518 arranged for the vehicle to be towed. My willingness to cover that expense demonstrates that I was actively trying to cooperate and find a solution. Regarding financing: I never refused to cooperate with the financing process. My request was simply that the mechanical concerns with the vehicle be addressed before I signed replacement financing documents. I believe that was a reasonable request under the circumstances. I also want to emphasize that I have continued attempting to communicate with the dealership since the vehicle was returned, including efforts over the past week to reach a resolution. At the end of the day, I am not interested in debating timelines or exchanging accusations through a public review platform. I have documentation supporting my concerns, but my preference is to resolve this directly and professionally. My request remains simple: Either address the mechanical issues so my daughter can have the safe, reliable vehicle we believed we were purchasing, or refund my $1,000 down payment so I can move forward with purchasing another vehicle. 518 has publicly stated that it remains willing to work toward a resolution, and I sincerely welcome that opportunity. I am simply asking that Wendy, or someone with the authority to resolve this matter, please call me directly. I believe a productive phone conversation could accomplish far more than continued public exchanges. I chose 518 because I wanted to support a locally owned business, and I would still very much like this experience to have a positive conclusion. I remain willing to work toward a fair resolution and will gladly update my review to reflect the outcome.
