I purchased a new 883 Low Rider in February 2006. I subsequently had 3 services done by Clearwater Harley Davidson in Johannesburg, South Africa. I have discovered that during this time my battery was swopped with an older battery. The battery is dated July 2002 and has the marking 'Vic' scratched onto the face of the battery. I doubt this would have been delivered by Harley Davidson Europe to South Africa with an old battery, so I beleive that while my bike has been serviced on these occasions that the battery must have been swopped with an older one. Please let me know what can be done about this. read full review »

I purchased a vehicle on 6/1/2009. We had $2000 down as well as a trade in that we owed $11k on. Although we were upside down on our vehicle, we were told that with the money down and rebates we would be able to purchase a 2009 Ford Fusion. On June 11, Dennis Gingrich called us and asked that we come down to the dealership as they had some additional paperwork we needed to sign. Nothing more was said. My husband and I couldn't make it down at that time so we scheduled the appointment for Friday 6/12/09. My husband made it to the... read full review »

I was interested in purchasing a pre-owned vehicle and contacted Hillside Honda. I was told by Christian that there were several vehicles at the dealership within my price range and told to meet with Frank Caputo that evening. When I arrived, Frank told me there was one car available but that it wasn't at the dealership yet. Told me to call back the next day. When I did, he said it was listed but still didn't have a price. He said he would get back to me with the info. I've left several messages and texted him in the last week... read full review »

$50 Rebate never received I submitted all the required documents, I keep copies in case something like this happened. When I didn't receive my rebate I posted on Bestop's website. It took over 30 days for a response from a Promotions mailing center not Bestop! stating the offer had expired and that they issued a notification. No notification was ever received and all the required forms were submitted. Their rebates are a scam. read full review »

I recently finished a 4 year lease with Infiniti for a M35 and made arrangements to turn the car back in. After reading the lease agreement I found that the tires did not meet the standards so I spent $600 on new tires. We also had the car detailed detailed. Infiniti has a 3rd party inspector that reviews the cars. Upon inspection he said that the wheels were scratched and wrote up a report for approximately $600. I told him that I did not agree and that the black from the new tires and detailing were showing on the edge of the wheels. I then... read full review »

This place is a nightmare. The owner Micheal is a smooth talker. He will draw you in and pick your pocket for everything you have. The mechanic John is incompetent and does not posses the knowledge to work on a bicycle yet alone a Jeep. Johns work is substandard and his attitude appalling. I have had substantial repairs performed at Republic and spent thousands. Each time I left after recovering my vehicle it ran worse then it did when I brought it in. I believe many of the parts repaired on my Jeep may have been replaced with used junk part... read full review »

I have called customer service several times and they have done nothing to help for a mistake a customer service representative made. A payment was withdrawn from account on the wrong day. I have been a valued customer with GMAC for over a year now. I financed a 2004 Chevy Trailblazer and my payments are 355.85 a month. I have made every payment on time since the duration of my loan.

We purchased our Mazda CX9 from Tustin Mazda and I should say it's been the biggest mistake of our lives ever on purchasing a new car from this dealership. From the beginning we had told the dealership that we wanted a tow package on the car along with roof rack and an entertainment system. The 2008 CX9 they had on their lot had all of those options except it was a silver color and we wanted a white one. They offered to bring another CX9 from a different dealership in Riverside except that it did not have the sunroof, being the only... read full review »

Owner Todd Berkowitz and salesman Matt Knezevic conspired to cheat me (and presumably many others) out of an "owner loyalty rebate" advertised by the dealer. This fraudulent practice could not be any more blatant: the dealer prominently advertised a $500 rebate on the purchase of a new Subaru Outback Sport for existing owners. At purchase Knezevic took the information, and repeatedly assured me that everything was "all set". After months of waiting, and having Berkowitz tell me that the check will arrive soon (including "it... read full review »

I took my car in to have the transmission looked at, and also for them to fix my air conditioner since it was only blowing hot. I asked them if I could have a loaner car, but they refused to give me one and even denied the fact that they ever loan out cars. I know for a fact that they do provide loaner cars, but I guess that just don't trust a 20 year-old who needs a car to get to class and work. As a result of this they will NEVER receive another dime from me. To make matters worse, they even called me to suggest replacing engine belts at a very high cost and brake pads as well on top of the $3500 for a new transmission and AC condenser. read full review »

I called Commerce Insurance in Massachusetts at their 800 number to ask for an information about my bill as they charged me for a unjustified fee. I am not a native English speaker and I have an accent. I didn’t understand what the woman said the first time, and when she had to repeat it she became very rude. At the end, she wasn’t able to give me any information. read full review »

Owner, Nathan N Sinan undertakes to sell a vehicle, then fraudulently transfers the vehicle into his name, then sells it to another dealer, in this case, Westgate Auto, who sells it to someone else, while the seller has not received his money nor being notified of the sale/s. And then they claim that a check was done to see about outstanding finance??? is that sufficient? what about phoning the owner, or previous owner in case no finance is indicated? and then the actual owner of the car is left powerless to recover either the vehicle or... read full review »

After 2 hours in finance department and starting at a finance rate of 8.0% I was able to eventually convince them to give me a 2.9% rate.

Sherwood Auto use to be Butch's Auto shop. But it has recently been taken over by new management. The people running that place are complete scum bags. About a month ago i took my vehicle in for work because it was stalling out. They told me that i needed my water pump and my fan replaced. And that they would keep it and look at it over night. Meanwhile, one of my girlfriends who has recently received work on her car there as well, and had accompanied me when i took my vehicle in, started getting texts from one of the mechanics.

Wow, where do I start? April of 2008 I brought my 1996 Bounder 34J to Orange County RV to sell through consignment. Everything seemed fine. Official contract, professionalism, and we (my wife and I) held onto the title. Since that time my family had moved to Phoenix for two incredible job oppurtunities. Life has been wonderful here in AZ. So, I called the dealership in august of 2008 to find out how things are going and he said that things were slow but assured me things would get better. Fast forward to December of 2008. I gave a call to... read full review »

Claimed to advertise car on their website and their ebay website and many other affilate websites by the weekend, they appeared to do so except when I clicked on the link, it was someone else's car they advertised. I did not appreciated this at all, I complained and they wanted to fix it, I demanded a refund as I will not deal with a company who makes mistakes like this. I was contacted by their customer service department, I explained what had happened and I wanted a refund. They said a manager would call me. The original sales guy... read full review »

I placed order on May.15th 2009. After many excuses (very poor contact) I've got information from owner (June 17th 2009) " I am an owner. We currently do not have an answer for you. You can dispute the charge with your credit card company. We are very sorry for the situation. I personally feel terrible but the situation is out of our control at the moment. If you dispute the charge you will get your money back. No further action will be needed. Thank you, Christopher Collyard OffroadToyStore.com" Keep away from this place!!! read full review »

Take your car there for an oil change, service or a check-up and you need to listen carefully because they will try to sell you something extra with fast talk and then deny they did it (for instance a detail service instead of a car wash - a difference in price of about $90.) My question to them is when a customer comes in with their car and signs a work-order estimate, only to pick up their car with a total cost of almost $200 over the estimate; shouldn’t they have been called first? Not this dealership! They will aggravate you... read full review »

I wish I had the time to stand outside the credit land car lot and sell lemons. I wish I could warn all of Sacramento about the LEMONS being sold by this lot.

I needed her to have transportation because she was still in school and I have 3 other children that needed to be driven to school, practice, etc. I have a full time job and couldn't do it all myself.

I ordered a new radiator, after a long wait I received the part. The one in the box was a new part that had been installed and removed, it is damaged. I skoke with several nice people that spoke poor broken english. I had great difficulty communicating my problem. They promised I would receive Return Information via email, IT NEVER CAME.

Jack Williams has a nasty habit of trying to sell you things that you don't need. Since moving to the area, I have tried to find a reputable mechanic (which is hard). My employer offers a discount for service at their auto center, so I decided to give it a shot. I don't know if these guys are working off of a commission, or if their jobs are threatened without aggressive upselling - but something certainly isn't right. I've had two cars since moving here, and every time I go there they find something wrong with my... read full review »

I was lied to. Yes, I am 84 yrs old, but I was going to get a new car to last my few years left on this earth. The salesmen took me for a ride and yes, took advantage of me.

AFTER signing, which they do not point anything out to you, I find my payments are not what we said and there was added things I said NO to. Warranty, fees, my payment and the bank was not what we agreed upon. I told them I did not want this car. I brought it to them, put the keys on the counter, and the mean... read full review »

I have a fixer upper car in my driveway. It runs and has a nice body, but I want to do some more work on it before it is road ready. I received a letter dated 6-11-09 that said I am required to remove this vehicle from public view. I have an older home with no garage and a concrete block fence which prevents me from putting the car in the back yard. I have no problem in moving the car - I do have a problem with the city requiring me to move it by 6-21-09 especially since the letter wasn't sent until 6-15-09 and I didn't receive it until 6-16-09 after 5pm. It feels like the city is trying their hardest to fine hard working people. read full review »

I had purchased an automobile engine that had a 30 month 50, 000 mile warranty, upon receiving the engine and having it installed by a certified GM mechanic the engine did not run correctly. The engine was hard to start, burned oil, and would continue running after being shut off. I contacted Marshall Engines and the placed the blame on the carburetor. When the mechanic installed the engine he said there was no evidence of the engine ever being dyno tested the paint was not even discolored in the exhaust ports.

Salesman coerced my son into applying for a loan for his friend who had bad credit. Plus, on the application they added the number 3 in front of what he actually earned ($6, 500) annually as a college freshman so the application wouldn't have any problem going through. The friend reneged on paying, it ended up being reposessed and my son's good credit was ruined! They'll do anything for a sale. read full review »
