CarMax Columbus Sawmill review

Great experience - Columbus, OH

August 26, 2012
By Happy customer from Columbus, OH

Great experience from start to finish! During the test drive, I noticed a noise in one of the front wheels. My salesman (Mike Khurshid) noticed it too. He said he would have their service dept look at it the next day. He called back to say that the tires were mismatched, so they put 4 brand new tires on the car (no additional charge). When he drove it again, the noise was gone. I was just going to pick up the car, but he insisted I drive it again myself to make sure the noise was gone. This was a small sale for CarMax, but everyone there made me feel I was the most important customer they had that day. I left with my new car, and a handful of Mike's business cards to give to friends!

My experience at Ricart Used Cars on Billingsley was one

February 17, 2025
By RusselWilliams76 from Columbus ohio

My experience at Ricart Used Cars on Billingsley was one of the best car buying experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed by the sales team. The entire process was smooth and hassle free, with no pressure in my decision. A big thank you to James and Andre they were incredibly welcoming and great to work with. Ricart Used Cars has earned a customer for life!

2023 Ford Explorer XLT

Owns this car

Have only had vehicle for 3 weeks but really like it. I’ve had F150’s for the past 12 years and thought I’d miss my truck, but I’m really enjoying this explorer. It’s more comfortable and fun to drive and the gas mileage is better.
