Used Cars for Sale in Lakeland, FL

11 years ago I drove my Toyota 4Runner off the lot with 3 miles on the ODO. 180,000 miles later it was time for a new vehicle. The top 3 things I was looking for in a new vehicle where 1) reasonably good gas milage (I drive 25K miles a year for work) 2) technology 3) versatility. A sporty hatchback checked all three boxes for me. My search narrowed to the Ford ST and VW Golf GTI. I drove both vehicles and the VW was the clear winner. It was not only more refined, but it had the personality I was looking for as well. I started dealing with a local VW dealer in Orlando, but wasn't satisfied with their response time. I reached out to Lakeland VW through Cars.com to confirm they had the exact make/model/trim/color/transmission that they had listed on the website. Lakeland VW was quick to respond to any and all of my questions, and because of that, I made the trip from Orlando to Lakeland. I was at the dealership at 9AM on a Saturday, and by Noon I was on the road back home with my new VW. It was going to be hard to steal me away from Toyota; I loved my 4Runner and it was a phenomenal vehicle...but VW had the automobile that suited me. My experience with Lakeland VW was pleasurable, and the car buying process could not have been easier. Hats off to Lacey with their internet department for answering my initial questions and getting me to the dealership, Hiram for his product knowledge and sales ability, and Jared for getting through the paperwork process quickly. I am extremely happy with my purchase, and I'm looking forward to putting many enjoyable miles on my MK7 Sport.

If anyone has left a bad review, they are mistaken! I was met on 9/7/2017 in the HOT Florida heat by Josh "The Journey" Johnson. After visiting many dealerships that day, Josh was the only sales professionals that met me the moment that I arrived on the HOT asphalt. I told Josh that I would return on 8/9/2017 with my wife to look at Jeep Wranglers. My wife and I were originally interested in purchasing a Jeep Wrangler that was primarily going to be driven by her. She test drove a Wrangler and stated that she couldn't see driving the Jeep everyday back and forth to work. Telling Josh of the change in vehicles. He was excited to hear that we were also interested in the Dodge Journey. Josh said when he began this was the only vehicle that he could sell to customers and he know virtually everything about them, hence the name Josh "The Journey" Johnson. (Hope you like it!) Seeing the excitement in Josh's face. I gave him the opportunity to impress my wife and I. Well, what can I say!! We are happy and proud owners of a 2017 Dodge Journey!! Josh knew his stuff about this vehicle and showed all the bells and whistles that the Journey had to offer. The story does not end there and may get a bit weird from here. I ran into the Financial Service writer "Al" in the bathroom and he began telling jokes while I wore my NY Giants hat. The comedy continued while finishing up the paperwork for our new vehicle. The staff, facility, and the people at Lakeland Dodge JEEP Chrysler are a great group and want to make you happy, comfortable, and pleased with the vehicle that you are purchasing. Josh stopped many times during the process and of looking and test driving making sure that as we continued this was the vehicle that fit our needs. Well Josh!! We are happy that we got a brand new vehicle and will send as many people your way!! As for AL, enjoy your trip to Denver and I will also send people your way!! Thanks Again!! And PEOPLE!! Ask for JJJ (Josh "The Journey" Johnson) and tell him Chuck sent you!! As I side note!! I do not work for any car dealerships.. Just wanted a nice, safe, affordable, and spacious vehicle for my wife to purchase!!

I just bought this car today with my taxes. I love the cars features, roominess, and comfort. However, I drove it to my doctors appointment and about 40 miles from home I started have an issue with the fuel gauge. I had half a tank and it suddenly dropped to empty and the low fuel chime activated. I pulled into a station (I could not be stranded on side of road with kids) and attempted to put more gas in it. It would not take the gas. I had to run the pump very slowly. When I got back in the car and cranked it, the fuel gauge was reading 3/4 of a tank. I went on to doctor another 30 miles away just fine. On the way home it did it again. I started researching this and MANY people have had the same issue with this model and it doesn't seem to matter the year. The problem is in the dual tanks not fluctuating properly and the tanks will have to be dropped. New fuel filters, fuel pumps and floats. Now I have a car that I cannot depend on and cannot afford to put that kind of money out for. Seems like Chrysler would recall this issue with so many complaints. People with the same issue all over the internet. Please beware.

We initially reached out by email to see this dealership's stock of Jeep Wrangler's. Very honest and forthcoming via email and even provided additional options. We agreed to stopp by to look at some Jeep Wrangler's with the 24C package and 1/2 metal doors (one of the few dealership's with this option). While we loved the options, we knew the JLU model was about to hit the dealerships, so we decided to wait. The staff here is great and we will probably end up returning to purchase our Jeep even though it's a 45 minutes drive (closer dealer 5 minutes away).

My fiancé was the second owner of this car. He bought it around 200,000 miles from the first owner. Never had a problem with it. Transmission shift solenoid started to go out after I got to 220,000 miles, but never had the chance to replace it. This car was reliable. I trusted this car everyday with my life and my family’s life. And the other day I got t-boned by a driver that hit me at 50 mph in a truck. Then slammed into a head on collision with a telephone pole. I walked away from that accident with some soreness, bruising, and a mild concussion. This car did it’s job! It saved my life. I’m broken hearted that my car is totaled, but I couldn’t be more grateful that I was spared and able to go home to my fiancé and son. I would buy this car again and again no matter how old. I truly believed this car would make it longer than 230,000. I’m looking into buying another one at this very moment. Thank you!

Worked with Mr. Mike Kelley, Internet Sales Manager, what an AWESOME EXPERIENCE. I will tell yeah, we worked Mr. Mike and Lakeland Dodge over pretty good... it was a marathon experience. But Mike, is a great guy... integrity is a word that stands out to me, he has it! Honesty, just like back in the day. He stuck with us on our 2017 Dodge Ram 1500 purchase... never waivered, never gave up, and never tried to push. I always preach perseverance, Mr. Mike has it! Come down here and you will not be disappointed. Top-notch and extremely professional. I do not want to leave out two other intricate pieces to this sale, Mr. Tom, the Floor manager here and Mr. Rich, the Finance guy. They, along with Mr. Mike worked hard to close this deal. GREAT Experience!

The car is good for snow great for family. Has low milleage nothing wrong with the car works perfect.0 economic for the gasoline very strong

I only inquired about a vehicle that was online through Car Guru. The representative that I spoke with was very nice and kind she tried many ways to get me to purchase and SUV at the time I was not ready however she didn't pressure me to buy an SUV but her words were whenever you are ready please come back and see me. I thought that was excellent

Exactly what we wanted. Very hard to find a low mileage, clean diesel with 8 ft bed. The dealership held this vehicle for us until we were able to get home and test drive it. We had a 2007 Ford 350 and traded for 2015 Ram 3500.

I only take my 2016 Camaro 2ss (43k miles) to Stingray Chevrolet for 2 reason Customer service and Professional workmanship when needed. I can???t say enough about Joe Platt my service advisor- he treat me like a family member and not just a customer needing service. I have a Chevrolet dealership near me in Wesley Chapel, and I drive the extra miles for quality service at Stingray!

Great value, Joy to own. Accommodation for 4 grown people of average size. Safely features are extraordinary. Designed for the comfort of all passengers. Can't say enough good things about this vehicle.

Very good service day! Had an appointment at 9am and was finished by 9:50am. All work wad done in an excellent fashion. Thanks for taking care of me and my wife. Needed to be a quick work day because my wife is not well. You exceeded my expectations.

We bought the long bed, extended cab, standard trans., Sports package. Beautiful exterior and interior design. It was a mistake to get the manual shift for us because we never hauled anything w/ it. It had to come to a complete stop before putting it into first. Not too many mph between shifts. Poor gas mileage, terrible in parking lots, (did not parallel park easily), and was a nightmare in stop and go traffic or on hills (like in SF). Drove like a much larger truck. But, it was easy on the eye.

I made an appointment online, the appointment time was close to the actual time (there was a slight wait at the check in desk while lunches were delivered). I was in and out in less than an hour, which was nice since I took time off work. Wish there were more Saturday service hours. This is my second oil change/scheduled service. The waiting room is very comfy, with hot and cold beverages free, and donuts if you are lucky!

Vehicle meet all my needs I really enjoy it I can’t wait to the summer so me and my family can go on road trips water parks amusement parks out of state definite family car

I've owned three (3) different Dodge Durangos, 1999 SLT.., a 2001 SLT I still have and also I currently have a 2012 Citadel. I mention the history of my auto ownership so that maybe my review will not be viewed as just another random one time review of a Dodge dealership. I've experienced Dodge dealerships from North Carolina to the northern part of Connecticut to Florida roughly a 1,200 mile span. I can truly say everyone of the dealerships were clean, professionally situated to accommodate customers and efficient in their service. In April of 2017 I took my Dodge Citadel to Posner Park Chrysler Dodge for a oil change. That was the very first time I frequent this facility but by the time my auto was finished I felt like I had been there many times. It wasn't just the service representative that interacted with me, but the service tech, and service representative that greets every customer, and that behavior extended to other service techs as well. In other words everyone at this facility treated me as though I was their client. Would I recommend Posner Park Chrysler to anyone else...? I would recommend Posner Park Chrysler to EVERYONE ESLE...! I am completely elated that it is the closest dealer to my home that will be servicing my auto.

We have owned this car for about 5 months. We have put 5k miles on it. My wife mainly drives it and is very pleased with it. We have 3 kids, each in car seats (5, 3, and newborn) and it has been an incredibly comfortable and easy car to own. The fuel economy is fantastic for how we use it. In the cold winter months, we get about 25-30 miles of electric range, and in the warmer months we got about 35-40 miles. I even got 42 miles on electric range once. Once the electric-only range is depleted, we get around 30-40mpg depending on driving style and a multitude of other factors. We do a lot of local driving so this car has suited us perfectly. We are about to fill up the car for the 2nd time in the next two weeks at some point. That will be about 5.5 months of ownership with 2 fill ups. Our electric bill has gone up only marginally; maybe around $20/mo. That has taken our cost of transportation from about $1500 - $2000 in gas a year down to about $250 in electricity a year plus maybe 4-5 fill ups which total about $35/each. So in total we are saving anywhere from $1100-$1600 per year in gas. In summary, we love this car. It does what it is supposed to do and the reported mileage/range is as advertised or even better for most of the year. We don't regret this purchase at all, and aside from our mortgage, this is the largest investment my wife and I have made in our lives as a family.

I left an unfavorable review below because I did not receive good customer service when we purchased the car. The store manager called me personally to apologize and will address with his team. He also sent me the operators manual for the car that we purchased since the salesman that sold me that car told me that the car is purchased as is without it. The store manager made it right and I appreciate him for it. Thanks.

Traded my Rogue for aKicks. Nice comfort but I miss my CD player overall a good vehicle. Gets around very good. Good gas mileage as well

Great experience purchasing a car. No hassle. Staff was friendly and attentive. They let me do my thing but checked on me often. Was there on a Saturday - weekends are busy for them. Left with a great deal on a car!! Will definitely be back! My best advice.. use their site and pre-check your financing. It will save you time. Great company!

Everything about this vehicle is love.The interior looks brand new,there's a lot of features and it rides so good.I loves everything about this vehicle.I made the right choice.

Very pleasant experience at EVO Motors. Cars are super cheap all the guys are friendly expect to pay $2,000 to $5,000 below any other place but you dont get to negotiate or ask for any free things which was ok to me. Financing was easy as well and we got offered almost the same interest as my bank offered and financed thru them with a large national lender their extended warranty option is also great . The only complaint is some of the cars need to be cleaned or not detailed very well but I did ask them to clean somethings they missed and they did.

This vehicle is fun to drive, Very responsive and aesthetically appealing. It is low to the ground and not as comfortable as I would like.

The Subaru exceeded my expectations. I love it more everyday. A sporty car that is still practical. Also my favorite color for a car, red.

I had been looking several months for a 2017 or 2018 Lexus RCF, one came available in Brandon at Brandon Auto Mall met with some of the staff at Ed Morse and found them to be very helpful, taking time with both my wife and me answering many questions about the car. When we look for another car would gladly do business with Brandon Auto Mall. Thanks to both, Marlon and Richard A+++++

This car is sharp looking and powerful when it drives. The interior is black leather heated seats and feels so comfortable. People always ask what kind of car is that’ You don’t see many G25’s on the road.

We drove two hours from the East coast with our truck and travel trailer as trade, after working with the internet department, to purchase our new Traverse. I was blown away. Ferman has totally upset the car buying experience. When we set out to buy this car, based on previous car buying experiences at other dealers, I meant it when I said I'd rather have another root canal or prep for another colonoscopy than have to deal with a car dealer. They gave us a trade-in value on our truck and trailer before we came from photos and VIN numbers, and offered the price for the Traverse that was advertised on the internet. Even adding back the dealer prep fee, they sold the car for $1411 below invoice. We had done our research, and frankly, I had no information with which to argue the price. They also offered us $3500 more than our local dealer (where we did the traditional four hours with the salesman negotiating price - too long to tell what went wrong there, but we left very unhappy.) When we arrived for our appointment, Nate was waiting for us with the car. He was extraordinarily friendly and a pleasure to deal with. But my wife and I continued to wait for the catch. Are they going to say we don't qualify for one of their incentives? Are they going to argue that the inspection uncovered something with the trade-in? Were they going to sign us up for an usurious interest rate with their preferred lender? We remained skeptical until we were done with the finance officer (and got a lower interest rate than our own bank said was available!) We saved over $5000 from what our local dealer offered. I never thought I would say this about ANY car dealer, but not just recommended, but HIGHLY recommended! Ferman demonstrated what the car buying experience CAN be. The only thing Ferman retains from the traditional dealer industry that gives them a crooked reputation is the dealer prep fee. But as I said, I added that back to their price when comparing against invoice. This is really the only negative thing I could come up with. Oh yeah....the family LOVES the car.

Powerful, sleek. Excellent handling and balance. Legendary Honda reliability. The ultimate driver's car. No shortcomings, no compromises. Fast, fun, reliable. Best value, easily bests cars costing three times as much. Maintenance costs low.

This car looks nice on the outside and on the inside. I test drove a standard transmission and loved it. Nice and quiet engine and a gas saver for the commute to and from work.

This car is perfect for a small family. Or a single individual. Plenty of style, room for storage and great gas mileage. we use 5is car to transport our ups around town as well.

I took this car for a test drive, fell in love and bought it. I love the sporty look and feel and it handles way better than my old Buick. Loved it so much I ended up buying it - sold!

After purchasing our 2016 Ford Mustang from Jesus Van Der Henst for my husband, it was my turn! After checking several other dealers for a sedan I thought I might like, I decided to go back to Jesus & revisit the 2016 Ford Taurus he had me test drive the day before. He was right, this was my car & now IS my car! He was so helpful & patient with us prior to my decision to buy. I love having something that not many other people have & this fit the bill, right down to the color! Because of this being a full size vehicle, which I love, & a model that not too many others want because of the large size, I was sold. You buy a car because it appeals to you & having a personable Salesman, helps make the experience more exciting. Well, I have to say that coming in without knowing what I wanted & leaving with a car that I just LOVE tells me that Jesus made my time very enjoyable! He was such a sweet gentleman & very knowledgeable in answering all of our questions, as was our financial guide, Vincent Ippolito. I recommend Parks Ford of Wesley Chapel for a great selection of cars & wonderful service! Thanks for helping us purchase our "2" new cars, Jesus!!!

We have been looking at SUV's for months now, and been to Many dealerships, and have dealt with a lot of Sales Personal. SEAN was the ONLY one who did and OUTSTANDING JOB in finding exactly what we wanted. At the right $$Price & Trade in Value. Would Highly recommend our family and friends to Sean and this Dealership.
