Israel is the best salesperson I?
Israel is the best salesperson I?ve ever worked with. He is so straightforward and genuine. I?d recommend him and Jerry?s to anyone.
Great SUV, NOISY inside. Get ext. Warranty!
2016 Platinum. Nice SUV, comfortable, very powerful, decent fuel economy, fair build quality, but there are some things to be aware of; the AWD models have a PTU (power transfer unit) which sends power to the rear wheels. It is positioned very close to the exhaust, and the heat generated by the turbochargers literally cooks the gear oil in the PTU, causing it to fail. The unit only holds about a quart of oil, and is NOT serviced or checked, even when you have the vehicle serviced at the dealer. We had trouble with the front camera, and the recirculation actuator on the climate control. If you are considering a used Explorer, I highly recommend buying the best warranty you can! The only complaint I have is the road noise. On new pavement, it's quiet, but on all other roads it's VERY loud inside!

My F150 developed a sudden technology related issue that made it run very poor. A simple text message to my dealer contact resulted in a very quick plan to come pick up my truck. They found a simple programming update for a module and had my truck back to me very quickly, all while I was at work and experience NO inconvenience at all. They always go above and beyond for me!

BEST Upgrade I Have Gotten!!
This vehicle is everything iv wanted and MORE! I showed up to the dealership with a price range I wanted to stick by & wanted the ability to get a vehicle that had a 4X4 button to drive through the weather in the winter. I was not only able to get these two things from my purchase but also came with lots of extra bells and whistles

I bought a 2005 Rav4 for my daughter at Magothy Motors.
I bought a 2005 Rav4 for my daughter at Magothy Motors. Luke was great; he realized a door panel was cracked as we were about to test drive. He had it fixed at no cost and held the vehicle for us until it was repaired with no down payment, just a handshake. We paid in full at point of sale and have been satisfied with the vehicle’s performance. Luke is a man of his word.

Best car buying experience
By far the best experience I've ever had at a dealership. No pressure to buy. Actually told me I could test drive a few to make sure I get what I truly needed. Daniel was amazing very patient while we waited for insurance to switch. Very through goin over contract payment ect to make sure I could afford it and not working just to pay my car note. Washed it filled it up w fuel before he'd even let me take it. That alone says alot being it an explorer and gas to fill it was a bill I'm sure. They treated us like family went above and beyond... I highly recommend performance auto if your looking for quality..

It is rare to find a car salesman who takes the time to truly understand their customer, possesses strong knowledge of the vehicles they represent, and then guides the buyer toward a better decision than they originally expected. Scott at Bill Estes Ford in Brownsburg, IN is one of those exceptional individuals who genuinely cares about his customers and is committed to helping them choose the best vehicle for their needs. My daughter and I visited the dealership intending to purchase a different model. However, after discussing her needs, Scott suggested we test?drive the Bronco Sport. By the end of the test drive, it was clear she was seeing a whole new option she had not seriously considered before. After driving two different models, in the end, we purchased a new Bronco Sport?and we love it! It drives better than we expected, the ride is smooth, the power from the 2.0 engine is impressive, and the technology and safety features are fantastic! I highly recommend Scott in Sales and the dealership for providing an excellent purchase experience.

I had an amazing experience purchasing my used 2020 Jeep
I had an amazing experience purchasing my used 2020 Jeep Cherokee back in May 2025. The salesman, John Griffin was absolutely fantastic! From the moment I shared my requirements and budget, he worked to make it all happen. He secured a great financing rate and found the Jeep of my dreams. I couldn't be happier with my purchase and I absolutely love my Jeep! John, your professionalism and salesmanship truly stood out, making this car-buying experience one of the best I've ever had. Thank you once again, John, and the entire team at Suburban Cadillac of Plymouth, for making my car-buying dreams come true. I will definitely be recommending your services to friends and family.
