Very accommodating for an appointment in only a few days. Service was performed flawlessly and made a suggestion for new tires, which I agree are needed.

Very accommodating for an appointment in only a few days. Service was performed flawlessly and made a suggestion for new tires, which I agree are needed. My only regret is living so far away from the dealership in a rural area near Athens, Georgia.

Buyer beware!

We purchased a used Mazda from Rick Case Mazda in Duluth, GA on 6/25/2021 and did not received title and tags until 12/17/2021. Although the salesman was very nice, the staff clearly does not know what they are doing. We were sent off on our test drive and pulled over by a policeman a few blocks down the road for not having a tag on the car. We told him we were test driving the car from Rick Case Mazda and he responded with “this happens all the time”. But, he proceeded to request proof of our story. All we had was a printout of the car ad that matched the car we were driving, but not sure what we would have shown him otherwise, as the dealership didn’t provide us with anything. There were several things wrong with the car (and not disclosed), but we decided what we were willing to pay for it and the dealership eventually agreed to sell it for that price so we were relatively happy. They put a 45 day temporary tag on the vehicle and sent us off after I wrote a check for the entire balance due. 45 days later, I called to inquire about the status of our title/ tags. Manager Jeff told me to contact Opus to check on it because we do not live in Georgia so the transaction gets completed by a third party. He told me he would send out another temporary sticker to add another 45 days, which I eventually received after two reminder follow-up calls. I contacted Opus in mid-August and was informed that they had not received any paperwork from the dealership yet so I contacted the dealership to let them know what I was told. I called Opus again on 9/1/2021 and was told they still don’t have the paperwork from the dealership. Opus received the paperwork from the dealership on 9/24/2021 and I finally received title and tags on 12/17/2021. Georgia law requires that the transfer gets processed within 30 days. I was forced to drive a car around without proper tags for 3 months. I believe that I was sold a car that the dealership didn’t own, which I’m pretty sure is illegal. I would recommend that if you purchase a car from them, demand to see the title to confirm they have rights to sell it, make sure they put a dealer plate on the car before your test drive, and don’t even bother to go to this dealership if you don’t live in Georgia. It is not a consumer’s job to be making phone calls to chase down the status of title transfer paperwork.

Terrible communication, a service that was supposed to take 1 to 1 1/2 hours took half day, no one told me anything while waiting. I ask the representative for any available discounts , he told me that we will check with the manager (it’s ok if he can’t just need to say it’s not possible) and at the end on my way home checking the bill they charge my for a car wash that I never asked for. Just terrible experience, this used to be my go shop because of the great people and service, seems that they change management and all have changed as well
