Motors on Wheels

I bought a 2011 Chevy Silverado from Motors On Wheels and was pleasantly surprised at the experience I encountered there. Brad H. was my contact and he was extremely helpful about answering my questions and not exhibiting the pressure that you usually find at a used car dealer. They allowed me to take the truck to a mechanic of my choice for a pre-purchase inspection and had the sales paperwork pre-prepared once I decided to purchase making it a quick transaction. I would not hesitate to do business with Motors On Wheels in the future! Charlie Freeman

During the whole process I mainly spoke to A.J. and to Joad some. They were both friendly and made the purchasing of my soon to be car, a 2003 Mini Cooper S an enjoyable and easy process. I am anxiously awaiting the car to be shipped to Miami and then here to me in St.Maarten in the Caribbean. I have already told friends who are interested in purchasing vehicles to check out their site, I even check for them and let them know what's available to their liking.

From the very first phone conversation to inquire about the 07 Miata MX5....Joad, Nash and AJ were friendly, informative and professional answering all my questions relating to an out-of-state purchase. Negotiations were fair and pleasant. Would highly recommend MotorsOnWheels to anyone in the market for a 'new' used vehicle. Keep in mind that MotorsOnWheels is a small independent dealership so their inventory is not as extensive as you might find at the larger brand-name dealer lots, but give them a try first....before you try anywhere else. Great people... Great products.... Great experience!!!

Just got a Acura Rsx which is my dream car. Very honest and friendly business in motors on wheels. Brad is a great guy to help you out for any problem. My friend also got a Passat last month. It runs great as well! Strongly recommend to try this dealer fellow brothers.

I bought a Prius from Motors on Wheels about a month ago, August 2013. All in all the purchase was a pleasant experience--the small shop feel of this company is a far cry from the industrial-strength dealerships dotting Houston. I purchased from Brad, who was a bit gruff, but he got the job done. When coming back to pick up the car (which they arranged to have reupholstered at my expense), I spoke with the brothers, who seemed a lot more friendly and accommodating. That's just personal impressions, though. Brad seemed to be understanding of my desire to think of the total cost of the car (the size of the check I wrote) and not try to hide taxes and fees, which I appreciated. When I wanted to get a pre-purchase inspection they were understanding, and the inspector found only one problem (some belt was worn down), which MoW repaired before I picked up the car. I had to pick up the car quickly (I had to drive a family member to the airport), so they didn't have time to detail the car, as is their policy. I plan to take it back to have it detailed when the registration and license arrives, which one of the brothers (I don't remember which) insisted would be no problem. He even offered to lend me a car while they were doing it, in case I need to get around during the detailing process, which is definitely far and beyond what a dealership needs to do. Bottom line, they're a great company, accommodating of customer needs, and I feel I got a fair price for the car, which has been running smoothly (and getting the advertised mileage, which is important for a hybrid) for the past month. Only a few things that bothered me that I feel like I should mention (why they don't warrant five stars): • One of the brothers told me it would be a few weeks before the license and registration arrived, and that they'd call me when it did. It's now been four weeks (if I counted correctly), and their phone line insists that I shouldn't bother them until it's been five. I suppose that's the Texas registry's problem, but I think it'd have been nice if they'd checked in with me, especially because they said it would be set sooner. • When I drove the car off the lot for the last time, I noticed a crack in the windshield. I suppose that's my bad for not noticing it before, but it's still a little annoying.

I bought a Chevy Malibu from here last November (2012). Joad was very accommodating with arrangements for me to come see the car (it was quite a bit of a drive and difficult to make it there in time before they closed on a weeknight). Once there, he was very friendly, respectful, and not the typical pushy used car salesman I was expecting. The car was in very good shape for the excellent price and had not been misrepresented at all. I brought a fellow do-it-yourself-er to help me with the evaluation. The test drive went well with neither of us finding any reason to let the deal go, so I went ahead and bought the car. The sales process was very quick and painless. After I got the car home, I let it sit for a couple days before driving it again. When I did start driving it again, the car developed a serious engine problem -- making a very loud engine noise, I took it to a local mechanic who told me that they could not pinpoint the noise without some expensive dis-assembly, but the noise was coming from deep inside the engine (and thus echoing all around, making it difficult to pinpoint an exact diagnosis without some dis-assembly). Knowing that I had bought it as-is and did not buy the warranty, I decided to call Joad back anyway to find out if he knew anything about the history of the car that would suggest what the problem might be. He said he had personally used the car and was surprised to hear the news, but was very concerned for what might have gone wrong. He asked if I could bring it back in so he could have his mechanic investigate, but was concerned about the severity of the noise and whether it should be towed instead. I asked my mechanic about the risk and he assured me it would be ok to make that one-way trip if I was gentle with it. So I (very carefully) drove it back there. Joad's mechanic found the problem (timing chain) and Joad offered to share some of the expense of the at-cost repair to be performed by his mechanic. I thought that was more than fair, considering it was an as-is sale, so I agreed. After I got the car back, I had it double checked by my own mechanic, and the repair had been done professionally and he confirmed that the parts they claimed to replace had indeed been replaced and all seemed well. I've held off on this review for some time, just to see how the car held up after that initial shock experience. I'm happy to report that now, 6 months later, the car is still doing great. My daughter is using it for a school & work commuter, and we've had no trouble with it at all -- doesn't use or leak any fluids, no fallout from the major timing chain replacement repair. I have to say that I'm very impressed and appreciative of the service I got from Joad and his staff. They turned a potential nightmare used-car scenario into a surprisingly pleasant, restored faith in humanity type of experience. I would not hesitate to buy another vehicle from Joad. I only gave them 4 stars on facilities because they like air freshener WAY too much. lol.

I was preapproved before I even went to the dealer got to the dealer everyone was very friendly and helpful service it was fast and easy to drive away in a my new car

Engaging, accommodating, honest, friendly and great experience overall. Will definitely purchase other cars from them in the future.

This doesn't feel like a used car dealership. I mean it does but the service is exceptional. They make you excited to get the car as if it were brand new. The buyer-seller relationship is warm, friendly and personal and they are EXTREMELY generous. I am recomending to anyone looking for a used car.

I purchased a 2006 Toyota Prius from Motors on Wheels last week. The car is (so far) in great shape and Joad worked with me on the price. Overall I am happy with my experience and would recommend this dealership for someone looking for a gently used car at a good price.
