Great buying experience

I bought a low mileage 2013 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited at Automax in Ocala. It was a great buying experience with Ryan Frazier and the staff. They were quick to respond to my internet request and had a large selection of used cars with low prices. This is a no thrills car dealership without any drama or hassle and inventory that is priced to sell.

2013 Ford Fusion SE Turbocharged used car purchase

We just bought a used 2013 Ford Fusion Turbocharged SE with leather seats and power everything at an exceptionally great price that is well below Kelly Blue Book and an lot of car for our buck. The buying experience was very low pressure (our awesome sales rep Joel Tomlinson even allowed us to test drive the vehicle without accompanying us. They gave us a fair amount for our trade and it was a pleasurable buying experience. We are highly satisfied and know we got a good deal as we had done our research and shopped many other dealer lots prior to our decision of buying at Automax of Ocala. Shop here first people!!

Easy to work with

Cant tell you how happy I am with my first ever car purchase from Automax of Ocala. I bought a 2013 ford escape and me and my family love it. James our salesman was real friendly and knowledgeable about all the cars we looked at. He really went above and beyond in helping us out. The car had a few minor scratches and things that needed to be cleaned and about a week after we purchased the car they had us come back in and they fixed everything, even re-painted the bumper for us and looks great.

Great Service! Ryan Frazier is AWESOME!!!!!

I initially went to the Automax website to search for vehicles on my own. Soon thereafter, I was contacted by Ryan to see if he could help me. We set an appointment for 1:00 pm, and by 3:00 pm, I was driving away in my 2013 Kia Optima LX! Ryan was very prompt and courteous throughout the entire process. He went to bat for me and made my family and I very happy. All of the folks we spoke with were professional and helpful! I will be returning to Automax Ocala to purchase my next vehicle!

Sales personel seems confused

I was searching for a Chrysler Crossfire and located one at this dealership. Over the phone and email I was given conflicting stories by different people about the car. First I was told the car had a problem and went to auction and is no longer available. Then I got an email the car is in the service bay being readied for sale. At this point I gave up, went shopping elsewhere and found and bought a Mercedes SLK.

Dealer response

There was some confusion on this particular issue. On the initial checkout the top was inoperative. The original estimate to fix was over $2,000 so we declined the work and sent the vehicle to the auction. The vehicle did not sell at the auction so just for "the heck of it" we sent the vehicle to the repair facility for a 2nd opinion. That repair facility was able to repair a component inside the mechanism instead of ordering a whole new one. After finding this out we made the attempt to contact to update this vehicles status. We are sorry for any inconvenience that this may have caused you.

Joel Tomlinson is awesome!!!!

Joel Tomlinson is now the only sales associate we will be working with for vehicle purchases. Love our car. Thanks so much.
