Uber driver

Sales agent was very friendly, knowledgeable and understanding of our desires, as well as our needs. They had a reasonable selection and supportive staff. The finance department worked diligently to get us an affordable payment for the model we wanted.

So you bought your car-how is the follow up?

Buying experience is usually good but not too many dealership treat the client as well as you do after the selling point and each time we come for servicing.

Took car for Recall issue

Prompt Courteous service. I can always count on the service department to give me a ride to work when I drop my car off for service. I love the fact that they wash my car when finished with servicing the car.
