Do your research beforehand and do a lot of digging. You'll find all the reasons not to shop here. READ: On May 2, 2026 I purchased a Nissan Rogue. It was still cooler weather so it wasn't noticed that AC didn't work. I contacted the dealership 2 days later when the issue was noticed by a mechanic. The AC unit needed to be replaced. Sam asked to bring it back for an overnight fix. I made the arrangments for the following week, dropped it off and went back for it the next day. The issue wasn't fixed when he said it was before picking it up. Luckily I noticed when I was about to leave the city I noticed the issue but also another loud squeaking sound that wasnt present when I had originally dropped it off. Another overnight fix they said but the next day they called, asked me to pay extra for a new compressor. I declined because they originally told me they wouldn't have "allowed me to drive off the lot if the AC wasn't working". I waited 3days before they told me they needed it longer. They loaned me a Nissan Qashqai. When the mechanic was chosing the vehicle to loan me he then stated that he "didn't trust because it was having issues" the KiA Sportage the suggested to lend me. 3days later Sam called to tell me they couldn't figure out what was causing the noise but believed it was the transmission. He proceeded to offer me another vehicle with 2x the kilometers, costing less than what I paid for the original vehicle that I bought, mentioning that he "wasn't trying to rip me off". That clearly makes no sense to a sane anybody. Then referred to the amount of the price difference as "nothing". To make matters worse I asked to speak in person, taking the vehicle they loaned me back. It nearly slowed to a stop and started jerking going from 100km an hr to 40kms an hr ON DEERFOOT. When I returned the vehicle, Sam insisted that I test drive the vehicle that I mentioned with the price difference. When I seen it, it happened to be the vehicle that the mechanic said he "didn't trust". When I mentioned what the mechanic said to me, he didn't know what I was talking about but at that point I didn't feel safe in any of their vehicles. Before I left Sam mentioned that they would buy back the original vehicle if I decided not to buy it. He was supposedly on the phone with the person writing the cheque and said it would be waiting when I got back if that was what I decided. That was not true. He attempted to pressure me into taking the KIA Sportage. I asked for the cheque and once i did that Sam's demeanor instantly changed, throwing my license plate into my other vehicle and just rude in general. Every time I had contact with Sam he asked about a review. So here it is. The only positive thing I have to say about my experience is that I got my money back after a whole month of dealing with something that started out as simple as a AC issue but that is to say the least when it costed more to take it back and forth.

Bought a car from here in 2021 and found that it was a chop-shop job, welded together with bondo and ceramic. It had been in a severe, unreported accident and the mechanical inspection was fabricated. Sev chop-shop job, welded together with bondo and ceramic. It had been in a severe, unreported accident and the mechanical inspection was fabricated. Several things were also broken on the car (noticed on test drive) despite the mechanical inspection saying they were fine. If I had been in an accident, the car would have crumpled like a soda can and I could have been killed or seriously injured. The owner also tried to steal 1k from us, trying to charge the full price of the car on pickup (5k) after we had put down a 1k deposit a day earlier. He corrected this after we pointed it out, and tried to refuse to take card as payment. They also ONLY provide written bills of sale and not typed/printed (as is industry standard). Every stage of the purchase process was slimey. More

The worst experience BE AWARE, don't sign anything or give them your money until you get absolutely everything you need otherwise there is no going back and you can say go BE AWARE, don't sign anything or give them your money until you get absolutely everything you need otherwise there is no going back and you can say goodbye to what you were promised! Totally unprofessional, classless high pressure sales with zero service. More

He asks if we want to buy an other car same make two years older , I said no He asks if we can drive around for a bit till the other people get back , we go and drive around for a bit and he calls us saying the car is sold ,found that shady and poor practice More

What a joke, don't know why this guys still in business Don't waste your time going here, there are other places that treat customers like they care. My daughter bought a used car there with 6 months of war Don't waste your time going here, there are other places that treat customers like they care. My daughter bought a used car there with 6 months of warranty and when she called to get a skid plate reattached ( 15 min work) and Sam started yelling at her, saying it doesn't cover. I called and said there is a steering gear that is just hanging, he started yelling at me, telling me he doesn't have time for petty things, I said it would only take a few minutes to fix. After a few minutes on the phone, with him yelling at me, he suddenly hung up on me. Very poor customer service. I just hope nothing serious happen to this car. More
