Meadowland of Carmel

⚠️ PSA for anyone shopping used Jeep Wranglers (especially 2012-2018 JKs with the 6-speed manual) ⚠️ After 6+ months of hunting I finally found what looked like the unicorn: • 2017 JK Rubicon • 6-speed • < 32 k miles • one-owner, spotless CarFax. I drove 200+ miles to a NY dealership, test-drove it, and drove it home thinking I’d scored big. The reality, one week later: 🔧 My trusted local Jeep dealer + a top-notch transmission shop both confirmed the same hidden issue— Reverse gear pops out under load = NSG370 manual transmission needs replacement Cost of a reman unit + install? $5,000+ (and the part is often on back-order). FYI: this “reverse pop-out / synchro failure” is a known weak spot on 6-speed JKs and can show up well under 50 k miles. I fully expected 8-year-old wear items—ball joints, axle U-joints, etc.—and I’m fine upgrading those. But a stealth transmission failure on a 32 k-mile Rubicon? That’s not routine maintenance. 👉 Take-aways for fellow Jeep shoppers Always get a pre-purchase inspection by a shop you trust—even if the dealer is 200 miles away. If you’re buying a 2012-2018 6-speed JK, ask about reverse gear engagement and listen/feel for it popping out on a test drive. Budget or negotiate for a reman transmission if there’s any doubt (Powertrain, Jasper, etc.). “CPO” or “great CarFax” does NOT guarantee the driveline hasn’t been abused or band-aided. Not naming-and-shaming (yet), but I will say this dealership either missed the problem on trade-in…or sold it anyway. Buyer beware, friends—get it inspected before you sign. Feel free to share so the next Rubicon dreamer doesn’t learn the hard way like I did. #JeepJK #Rubicon #NSG370 #UsedCarLesson

I gave this a 1 star review due to the great customer service given by Tuck! If I could give this dealership a 0 star, I would. I found a truck here on the lot that I'm in need of due to a rollover accident which totaled out my last truck. Anyways, I made the arrangements to fly from Michigan to New York and drive this truck home. When starting the finance process, I was refused the sale by the manager Vinny due to having a GM Discount which then used the excuse this car doesn't qualify (2025 GMC Yukon XL). After looking into it, this specific truck does qualify and they do accept this specific discount. After the many excuse of "why they can't"... this shows the reputation they care, the lack of the importance of clientele, they just want your money and discriminating. I would HIGHLY suggest looking elsewhere.. Because what's next? The refusal to fix your vehicle right when it has a black and white warranty... Good job!

My porches the 2018 Toyota Sienna Tom use car representative was very nice and informative I didn’t feel any pressure I drove 2hr from Long Island to that location and I don’t regret first time I did look at the car no surprises I did like the car and we did the paper work with finance department the was also nice he was a were kind and we went week after the day we wants car was ready front of the showroom I will thanks again for the service this days you won’t see any dealerships like this

I bought two cars from Mike Barrows. Mike's salesmanship goes unmatched. He did not pressure us at any point and was always willing to do his best on a price for us. The transaction was quick, easy and smooth. Just to top it all off Mike donates $50 dollars for every car he sells to united for the troops and having two grandparents that served this really blew me away. Thanks Big Mike!

Great experience and service!! Prior to pickup everything was explained and verified in order to have a seamless delivery experience. Sharon was great at going over everything and Mike took it home with no hiccups. Definitely great customer service and experience!! Would recommend and buy another vehicle!

I just purchased up a late model Pacifica. The transaction was professionally handled. There were no surprises. A hat tip to our salesman Julian and Ken in service, both customer focused. I particularly appreciate their followup communications. It does make a difference where and with whom you choose to do business.

I had a great experience with Meadowland of Carmel. First off, my sales associate Dominick was a thorough professional who was very attentive to my needs. He understood what I was looking for and found the right fit for our business. In the end we got a great vehicle, were treated respectfully and got a deal we are very happy with. I would highly recommend doing business with MEadowland!

Fast response, easy to work with, we loved how they broke down everything for us there was nothing hidden!

Bought a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee from Meadowland. Love the car but love the service I got from this dealership even more. First class experience all the way. Will continue to buy from them in the future.

Recently purchased a Ram 2500 and worked with Julian. Great experience - not a typical dealer, no bait and switch, no hard sell. Honest and straight forward. Looking to purchase another vehicle in the future.
