Price Wise Auto Sales

I would like to share my BAD car buying experience with you. I bought a 2018 Cadillac XT4 from Price Wise Auto on 16 W St Georges Ave Linden NJ on the first week in March, 2025. For the first 3 months they keep giving me temporary plates (temp plates are only good for 30 days). In those 3 months they never returned my calls pop, or answered my emails. So the end of May I had to call the DMV- division of motor vehicle to find out about the plates. I was informed by the DMV at that time that no paperwork had ever been filed from the dealer about that car. When I spoke to the owner of course he said he had no idea, and he would take care of it. He admitted to me that they had sold me a bad car (could not get the title). They offered me another car same year similar mileage, so I took it. He was told at the time by his own people that it needed a battery, tires, and breaks. They put on breaks, used tires-said he wasn’t paying for new tires, and no battery. When I had the Cadillac I made 3 payments totaling 1,059.00 and had to put tires on that car (875.00) totaling 1,934.00 that he said he would reimburse me. I gave him bank statements and receipt for tires. That was the beginning of June. As of this writing, August 12th I’m still waiting. They still don’t return my calls or emails. My advice to anyone who is looking to buy a car, DO NOT - go to these clowns. You will get totally screwed.

Beware of the misleading online purchase prices from this dealership. Once I arrived to purchase a car, I was told that "the online price was only a marketing tactic and not the actual price". The extra costs to the online price not including tax or registration amounted to an additional $8K. This included a $4000 dealer fee, a $2000 warranty fee and another $1800 for a lojack system. This made the total cost of the vehicle before taxes way above the value of the car. This is a total scam. I have never had any dealership ever try something like this. These exorbitant fees are not normal. Buyer be ware.

If I can give it zero stars I would . lots of hidden fees car advertised as such and when we got there final price was 10,000 more Definitely a bunch of crooks

Crooks ! Don’t waste your time !!!! They will scam you !! Don’t trust them ! Bad place

Steven the sale guys is awesome And the Loan manager is awesome too Check them out

If i could give this place no stars that’s what i would do. I bought a vehicle from them on a Friday. Drove 3 hours to get there. I get there and they tell me we can negotiate UP from the sticker price of the car. A $15k car they want to sell for 20 grand. Very misleading. After i stupidly purchased the car even though they were already shady, because the manager Jonathan gave me a story about how they give back junk cars and don’t sell people garbage, and he even tests them. Well fast forward to Monday, because it’s the first available appt to get the car scanned because it had NO power to the motor. Mind you it’s a TTv8 Audi. I find out that the cars turbos are not working along with a slew of other problems to the tune of thousands of dollars. As soon as the car got diagnosed i tried to contact this place. Probably hundreds of times. Left messages, texts that they would read and ignore. For 5 days straight. So then i had no choice but to buy parts as the dealership was blatantly ignoring me. I finally speak to someone and tell them i want a portion of the down payment back just to fix the vehicle. Crickets. For 3 weeks now and to this day they’re just blowing me off. It’s unbelievable. I’d never refer a soul to this place

Disappointing business practice - Caveat Emptor! Drove 2.5 hrs. to see the car after confirming price. Test drive went well, and staff are personable. The price is NOT the price on the website. They state that this is how it's done these days, but it's unethical. I offered to pay their website published price plus their fees / DMV / tax, etc. but they won't budge. Would recommend staying FAR away form any dealership performing these kinds of shady business practices.

Call and put an offer and getting entertain my offer they insisted I come in and take a test drive and because of the distance I'm not going to take a test drive or less they're going to entertain my offer and all they do is try to reel you in to come in

As an out-of-state buyer it took one full week just to get a salesperson on the phone. He knew virtually nothing about the car, was inconsistent in communicating and even with a strong offer refused to even consider anything under list. That’s as far as I got. On one call I could hear another salesperson berating a prospective customer for asking a question. I get that it’s the city and business can sometimes be conducted with rough edges but this all added up to me moving on very quickly. And from the start I let them know I was a cash buyer. Good luck. Don’t expect a smooth experience.

Don't West Your Time going to this Dealership they have a lot of Hidden Fees Like Crazy if you see care there expect at list 1/3 more of the Price on Hidden Fees and Dealer Charges so don't west your time the Wise Price its not really Wise
