Normal service service for oil change and tire rot
Very cordial service attendant! Short wait time for oil change and tire rotation! All where wearing mask! Nice waiting area for service customers. Will use their service again!
2023 Ford Explorer XLT
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.

I have been pleased with the experience so far.
I have been pleased with the experience so far. Being able to test drive independently for pretty much as long as I want is great. I have easily made appointments and then added on some additional cars once I got there. The no haggle pricing takes away some stress, but that also means if there is something to be fixed on a car, there's no negotiation. They have at least offered me what I consider is reasonable for my trade - more than most places have. I am taking a car for a prepurchase inspection to my mechanic tomorrow, so if it goes well, we'll see how the actual buying process goes after that.
Nice vehicle
Quiet, comfortable and powerful car. I have the twin turbo that puts out 400 hp. General gas mileage is 19-20 city and 24-25 highway. The only thing that I would change on this vehicle is that I would like to be able to turn off some of the automatic operations on a semi-permanent basis.

The process was smooth and easy, and everybody was very friendly. I will definitely recommend this dealership to others. In addition to making the process smooth and easy, they also gave me a tour of the facility.
Impressive
This is the first explorer that I have owned in nearly 30 years. I am coming from a ram 1500. I am surprised how comfortable this explorer is I’m really enjoying the gas mileage between 21 to 23 in town. I have not taken a trip on the highway yet.

I worked with Cody at EchoPark recently to purchase a used vehicle. It was a wonderful experience working with Cody. He listened to all of our concerns and even went above and beyond by researching anything we had questions on. He truly listened and cared about any questions we had. It was an awesome experience. He is incredibly friendly and warm. I would work with Cody again to purchase a vehicle.

Here’s a polished version of your review: ⸻ I had an amazing experience working with Cody at EchoPark. From start to finish, he took care of everything and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. What really stood out was that he never made me feel pressured at any point—something that’s rare in car sales. Cody was consistent, communicative, and made sure all of my needs were met. I genuinely felt like he had my best interest in mind the whole time. I would absolutely go back and buy another car from EchoPark solely because of him. Highly recommend!

We had three appointments at three different places to check 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid. We decided to visit EchoPark first. Krystal Brown was very kind and patient. She spent more than 4 hours with us. We bought the 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid that we were interested and also traded in my 2012 Honda CR-V.

Cody at EchoPark Birmingham was friendly, knowledgeable and incredibly helpful in this car buying process! He was able to help me compare two similar vehicles to identify the one that was the better fit for my needs and budget. When it came to warranties, he was patient and detailed while walking me through each component. I actually learned a lot! Thanks Cody and EchoPark!
