STAY AS FAR AWAY AS POSSIBLE.\r
I've had, not only the worst car buying experience but the worst customer service experience ever with these guys. Long story short, these guys were selling a used car that was in no condition to be sold. And on top of that, they DO NOT RETURN PHONE CALLS!\r

When I was test driving the vehicle, I noticed a slight rubbing or whirring noise from the rear left tire. They assured me it was probably just a rotor or brake pad rubbing and I, seeing as how they had just serviced the vehicle, gave them the benefit of the doubt and ended up making a deal for the car that night (Friday night). They provided me with a ""We Owe You"" slip and told me someone would contact me to bring the car in that week. I ended dropping the car off on Thursday of the following week. After waiting in the waiting room an hour and a half, the service tech came and told me they were going to be put me in a car because they needed to keep mine. He mentioned it was more serious than they thought, some sort of problem with the rear differential. He told me himself or the used car manager would get in touch with me later in the day. The day goes by, no call. I wait until Friday after work, still no call so I pick up the phone and call. The service advisor tells me he gave everything over to the used car manager, not sure why, and he would be calling me shortly. Again, no call that night. I call back on Saturday, rather frustrated, trying to find out what's going on. The gentleman that picks up the phone in the service department tells me I need to talk to Nikki. He puts me into her voicemail of course... fortunately she calls me back shortly and tells me they sent my car to a transmission shop to see if the rear differential needs to be replaced or rebuilt. She says she will call me that day (Saturday) or Monday at the latest. Of course, she does not call either day. I call Monday after work and get put into her voicemail. I call back later that same night, upset, and get bounced around to a number of individuals. I finally get in touch with the original service advisor who tells me they're supposed to hear from the transmission shop by Tuesday (next day) at noon and they would be in touch with me shortly after. I get a call Tuesday afternoon from the service advisor and he says they're going to rebuild it and it should be done by Thursday or Friday. I get a call late in the afternoon Friday saying its now going to be Tuesday before its complete. I'm livid. I call the dealership and ask for the sales manager and get voicemail of course. I explain in my voicemail my frustration and that I would really like to discuss returning the vehicle (not unreasonable at this point, in my opinion) and as of Monday morning, I have not been called back... of course.\r

By the way, my salesman was nice enough to deal with during the buying process. He told me if I had any problems after the deal, to let him know and he would go to bat for me. I called him the day after I dropped the car off to see if he could help find out what's going on. He told me as soon as he got into work that day he would find out what was going on. I never heard from him, even after I called and left him a voicemail Friday evening.\r

One of the most basic tenets of customer service is to call your customer back when you say you're going to call them back, something this dealership has consistently failed to do. Also, I'm not sure if they were naive about the condition of the car or hoping the customer was, either way this has been a nightmarish used car buying experience.\r

Specific people I would highly avoiding... Brian (Service), Mark (Service), Nikki (Service), Corey (Used Car Sales), David Hesse (Sales Manager).\r

By the way, I'm writing the review a week and a half after dropping my car off and I still do not have my car back. At this point, they have had it for longer than I have, as the owner of this vehicle.
