I spent several hours at this location and by the time I

I spent several hours at this location and by the time I left I felt like I had known Dave for years. I felt like I had gotten a terrific deal. I hate leaving bad reviews because I feel like most people do not have intentions to deceive. I purchased a vehicle for my adult daughters (who live with me) to use. The oldest has a disability and the youngest just had her first baby. Enough of the sob story. When I left, Dave said that if I ever needed anything, parts for a vehicle etc, please reach out. Within 300 miles the transmission went out. I was devastated but at the same time knew that everything would be ok because I always try to do the right things. I reached out to Dave several times and he seemed concerned. He would say try this or that and give me a call back. It's been more than 3 weeks now and I'm starting to feel like they got their money so it is what it is. I'm not in any way a vengeful person. I am a father of 4, A veteran of the USMC, and an overall pretty good guy. With nearly 40 years of being in business, I would think that these guys would know of somewhere that they could get a transmission for a reasonable price or do something to help me out. Dave did say that he had another car that he might be able to sell toe at cost. Hmmm? So 2 car payments in the place of one. I'm hoping the owner reads this and reached out. Not with one of those messages that says "I must have the wrong dealership". I'm asking them to do. the right thing. I truly don't want to escalate this issue.

Horrible

Horrible dealership! All they tell are lies and see you lemons. Bought my car 17 days ago and been able to drive it 1 day. There a joke , every time I took it back to have it fixed it came back worse and wrong. Horrible mechanic, horrible salesman and the owner is a liar.

Horrible

Biggest joke ever! "Guaranteed financing" my xxx! 'We finance "everybody" '. Bunch of bull! The biggest waste of time! Two days of my life we'll never get back. Only thing they have going for them is decent "driveable " cars. The staff acts like their experts and will help you get a car, even when you have the funds available! FALSE ADVERTISING! Worst and sketchiest place around.

Best customer service around

After checking around at several used car dealerships the place that I found most honest and customer caring was Lakesides Auto Sales. The Owner as well as the staff were helpful and went out of their way to make sure I was happy with my purchase of a used car. I will a returning customer in the future and will be recommending them to anyone that I know looking to but a car. Thank you Steve and Dave for caring so much to make sure I was comfortable with my car.

Poor customer service.

Dealer never contacted me, which surprised me. I was very disappointed. But then i figured that the dealer either had another buyer or had already sold the car. Regardless - it would have been nice for the dealer to let me know the status regarding the sale of the car.
