Verified Reviewer |Vehicles are unreliable
- - Bought a used vehicle from a dealership that broke down soon after.
- - The buyer bears monthly payments and thousands in repairs after purchase.
Any used vehicle bought from this dealership is unreliable. Immediately after purchasing one of their vehicles it will breakdown and you will be responsible for both the monthly payment AND $1,000s in repairs.
They claim to inspect the vehicle however the minute you take possession of the vehicle everything they inspected needs replaced. I get I bought I used vehicle and it will have issues but $7,000 in repairs and I've only had it 3 months is not acceptable period.
- Unhelpful unreliable used cars customer service
Preferred solution: My vehicle repaired
User's recommendation: RUN as far and as fast as you can from this place
Garantia
- - Gold warranty promise full coverage; only thermostat and electric pump fixed.
- - Delivery had no cold A/C; vibrations and transmission issues.
El auto se compro con la garantia gold en autonation honda cleawater , Mercedes glc *** antes de firmar note que tenia algo y me dijeron que me lo llevara que tenia garantia gold. Lo envie a inspeccionar y tenia los soportes malos blind spot assist.
El acuator del aire y el termostato abierto. Se verifico enla lista y cubria todo. Y comenzo la resistecia activar la garantia hoda me envia a Mercedes autonation *** y tuvieron el auto por 45 dias para decirme que solo cubrieron el termostato y la bomba electrica, cuando me lo entregaron me lo dieron sin aire frio cuando el enfriaba muy bien solo tenia lo que mueve el acuator roto. Tuve que estar un buen rato para que me lo dejaran igual como lo lleve enfriando *** que regrese y me lo entregaron al dia siguiente.
Al otro dia que estoy limpiando el auto me si cuenta que me rompieron el medidor de aceite y el cristal de alfrente muchos huequitos pequeños . Y la pintura tambien pequeños pedacitos de pintura sacados . Me di cuenta por que este auto se vio que estaba recien pintado y pir eso lo compre estaba en la pintura y interior muy bien cuidado exepto el asiento del chofer una esquina. Como tengo foros antes de dejarlo pir todos lados exterio y interior motor y por debajo y me di cuenta todo lo que paso por 45 dias en el dealer.
Los plaratico de abajo estaban impecable como si nunca hubiera salido a la calle su color negro de pkastico nuevo y brilloso que tuve que retratarlo pir que no lo pidia creer y ahora esta sucio de tiempo y con partes roto , nose si me los cambiaron o verdaderamente no tuvieron cuidado al subirlo en el pino hasta la goma donde va el gato . Una pesadilla ver una cindicion que lleve el auto a cuando me lo entregaron. Si no fuera por las fotos antes de llevarlo y video no me hubiera percatado de esos detalles. El carro solo lo corri 1 semana el resto del tiempo lo han tenido los dealer para la garantia 46 en *** Mercedes y 2 semana en hoda.
Honda deapues de muchos rexhazos acedio a poner los soportes le tome foros y videos frente del dealer Para que no me den excusas que fue en sus manos y le di la advertencia que tubieran cuidado con el auto la pintura. Le pusieron los soportes del motor y no cambiaron de la transmision, todo mecanico hasta de marquesina sabe que los soportes se cambia todos a la vez para garantizar un trabajo. No lo hicieron y comenzo el dilema otra ve me llaman el auto eata lusto le pregunto ya no tiembla mas verdad. Me reponde que lo probaron y corre smooth.

Son mi ultima opcion oara que esten al tanto de realidad qie pasa en sus dealer con el cliente muy amablea hasta que firman cuando se reclama es Cuesta arriba.

Verified ReviewerLied to and Ripped off
- - Bought a modified 2007 GMC Sierra 2500HD from Autonation USA 104.
- - Warranty cost $4,901 and was not disclosed.
My name is Andre Pray last year I made the mistake of buying a vehicle from Autonation USA 104. The truck was a 2007 GMC Sierra 2500hd 4x4 6.6 duramax diesel.
The truck had 104,000 miles on it. I was informed it had one owner they may have told me about it being wrecked. After I signed the paperwork on the truck. Im writing you today because they completely ruined my first time car buying experience.
After post on apps like next door and posting a review on Google, ripping people off is common practice for them. In my case and a few others that I saw from reviews and comments from my post, if there is an issue with the vehicle they promise to fix it until the loan goes through with the bank. Followed by telling you they never said that and no notes are in the system about this. For starters I let them know I have never financed a vehicle, hoping for some kinda first time buyers program or making sure we werent trying to get a loan on something that would never get approved .This turned out to be my biggest mistake.
The truck itself is modified. It was a 6 inch lift kit, a larger fuel cell, cold air intake and a resonator delete that Im aware of. I took the truck on a test drive and the salesman ( whos name I would have to look up) refused to let me take it on the highway. This should of been my sign to take it back and run for the heels, but as the salesman said.
It my be $8,000 over blue book value, but!!! You know your getting a quality vehicle because its from Autonation and we put all our vehicles through a rigorous 200 point inspection. Nothing could have been further from the truth. The salesman directed me to a road that we could hit highway speeds.
The roads speed limit was 40 mph. So I may have got to accelerate rather quickly, but I had no choice but to take my foot off the gas at 50mph. Im not going to risk peoples life to test out a truck, as the truck did pull hard to one side or the other. This will come into play shortly.
I came to Autonation thinking what the sales men was something I already knew. Theres a lot of desperate people out there who are willing to sell you a junker to feed there family. Didnt think Autonation was a place I had to worry about that happening. When we got back I was assured that the wheel pulling was just a simple alignment issue.
When we returned I was ready to go ahead and apply for a loan, its hard to find a turbo diesel with low miles and decides to dents the truck was is great shape. This is where things went bad and have continued to get worse as time goes on. The salesmans tactic was to get me to call for car insurance and then force paperwork down my throat and wouldnt take wait until Im on the phone for a answer. I was told they were even throwing in gap insurance and a warranty.
Awesome! Right? No. They left out and its my fault for being pressured into just signing and letting him explain while I was on the phone.
The gap coverage wasnt free as stated and neither was the warranty. Im ok with the gap coverage as it turned out to only cost $300. The warranty on the other hand cost me $4,901 for the most basic coverage. After talking to Vertias global protection today, I learned that they charged me the same price for there top of the line premier warranty coverage for there bottom of the line power train coverage.
Keep in mind I was told this was being thrown in, as in free. It gets worse. My truck is at the GMC dealership to have the motor and transmission checked out. I called Vertias to ask about there rental car reimbursement.
I went into detail about my truck and alll the problems Ive had with it, which I will circle back too. After telling the agent about the motor thats in my truck and the modifications I bought it with. I was informed that they will automatically deny any claims on it. Autonation did not divulge that turbo diesel motor in the truck or the lift kit or the rest of the mods.
The warranty copy thinks my truck is a bone stock gas truck with no turbo, no lift, no mods. I was told to call autonation, who btw since the day I bought that truck will not return my phone calls or emails. I literally have to show up at the dealership to even talk to anyone, which I will go my into depth about later. Autonations corporate office is trying to point the finger at the warranty company and told me they will see what they can do.
Back to buying the truck. I was not informed that I was paying for the warranty or that there was options for it. It would of been easy to read had I been allotted a chance to read what I was signing instead of trying to talk with a car insurance agent while being force fed paperwork against my wishes. I drove the truck home and parked if for about the next week and a half, as I drive my work truck home at the time and work 6 to 7 days a week.
When I did start to notice problems with the electrical the first time I drove it the salesman I bought the car from told me thats my problem and thats what happens when you buy a used vehicle. Lovely. The following week I put 35 tires on it as it does have a 6 inch lift kit and looked bad with tiny stock size tires on it. I instantly realize why I wasnt allowed to take the truck on the highway for the test drive.
You could hear the front tires rubbing hard against the ground and it was almost impossible to control the truck. My co worker who took me to pick it up from the tire shop even called me as we were driving back to my house to tell me my truck was crab walking bad. I of course made several calls to the dealership demanding to speak to the manager who wouldnt come to the phone or call me back. I had no choice to take it to the shop myself or injure myself or a stranger driving it.
$1500 later I was on the road again. I had to drive up there and wait about a hour to speak with Ian the general manager ( the ring leader ). He had the nerve to ask my why I didnt call them and let them fix it instead of taking it to the shop. Ian was able to calm me down with promises of reimbursement for have the front end worked on and would have the truck sent to autonation Chevy to have everything else fixed.
Lies lies and more lies. I was never paid back for the work done to the front end. I even offered to cover $160.00 that would of paid for the alignment as I did agree to have the truck aligned when I bought it. As I was told thats all thats wrong with the front end.
Autonation Chevy only addressed the issue with my driver seat and the part was on back order for 6 months. The guy I dealt with at Autonation Chevy told me that Ian only told them to address the seat nothing else. Told me he was the service manager at Autonation USA but transferred to there Chevy store because what they did to me was common practice at USA 104 , they knew that front end was destroyed and couldnt get the alignment anywhere near right and lied to my face and on the inspection. Told me not to worry when the seat part came in he would make sure the rest of the electrical issues would be addressed.
6 months later the part arrived and the gentleman I built such a good relationship with was no longer with Autonation. There were no notes in the system about anything that was supposed to be fixed besides my seat. At this point I called corporate for the second time. Ian had the nerve to call me and tell me they never said anything about paying me back for the front end and never promised to fix anything but my seat.
To date I had to replace every last part that deals with steering on that truck. I continue to have electrical problems with it. I only put 11,000 miles on the truck. It seems the transmission is going and the motor has a knock to it and has a power loss issue.
It seems unless autonation is held accountable for the bad business they have done with me and so many others. They will just continue to possibly ruin peoples lives. I spent 32k in total on my loan for this truck. I didnt want to buy someones problem so I went to autonation and that was the worst mistake I ever made.
It seems like this truck will continue to leach money out of me and soon leave me without a vehicle. In a time where repos are at national high and so is interest. Ive always told autonation I just want what I was promised nothing more nothing less. Im sure as time goes by Ill undercover more about autonation and this truck.
Theres so much more detail to this nightmare. I wouldnt wish autonation on my worst enemy. With such a reputable name who knows how many people have had the same life altering treatment as me or worse. In no way should the consumer be stuck with a vehicle that should of never been sold as a certified quality vehicle.
Its not our fault they bought a bad vehicle and they dont want to put money into it to make it sell able. Lying about inspections and throwing stuff in that your paying thousands for that isnt even any good isnt ethical. In my case the worst part was being purposely taken advantage of because Im a first time buyer. They are smart enough to make it almost impossible to communicate about any issues via text, phone, or emails.
.
I cant win being honest or trying to do the right thing. Im currently on leave due to a work related injury, so Im on a fixed income. With no idea what my future looks like. I cant afford much more losses with this truck.
autonation USA 104s reviews on Google there are similar stories, if they havent been removed. I will also include one of two bills for the front end. Ian at Autonation 104 has the first one, the one he promised to pay me back for. I also have all the paperwork I signed for the truck.
Being a honest hard working person is getting me no where. I just got a call from the GMC dealership doing the warranty work, the transmission needs to be replaced and Vertias Global Protection is going to send out an inspector to verify the work needing to be done. If the agent from there I spoke to was right, its going to get automatically denied because Autonation filed a faulty warranty and never disclosed its a turbo diesel truck with a lift kit and a few mods on it.
I wasted 4901.00 on a warranty thats completely worthless. They should be criminally charged for the way they do business.
User's recommendation: Don’t buy from autonation, always take a vehicle to a third party for inspection. Never trust the salesman to explain what you’re signing. Never let them force feed you documents while your on the pho e

- Will lie
- Will lie on inspection to sell
- Will not honor promises to fix
Preferred solution: Paid back for steering parts. Warranty fixed and changed to premier like I paid for. Reimbursed for fixing electrical, both seats and pedal controls
User's recommendation: Don’t shop at autonation. Get everything in writing. Don’t let them force you to sign papers and let them explain what you’re signing while on the phone. Always take vehicle to a third party to be inspected

Verified Reviewer |Failed rack on Audi a6 2014
- - Bought a 2014 Audi A6 from Autonation Stevens Creek; issues began.
- - Honda Roseville said they don't service Audi; rack may fail, costing $5,500.
I purchased my 2014 Audi A6 from Autonation Stevens Creek in September 2023. I began to have issues with the car immediately, so I started taking it to Autonation of Honda in Roseville because I live in Sacramento. At first, they were turning me away because they said they don't service Audi, even though they sold me the Audi. Oddly enough, I went there multiple times due to different issues with the car.
As they began to fix some things on the car to make it run smoother or even turn off the signal lights, I would then be on my way. I visited them multiple times within the three-month timeframe of the Autonation warranty. I did not purchase an extended warranty as I didn't like the customer service I received when first purchasing the car at Stevens Creek.
Getting back to the repairs, I visited there multiple times. I've rented multiple cars. They even gave me a car as a rental at one point. However, they didn't inform me that there is a possibility that my rack might be failing on my car. Now I need to pay $5500 to get my car running again. Currently, I'm losing money as I have to catch Lyft and Uber to get to work. I own a hair salon that I must go to, and I also work a hospital position. Now that my car is out of commission, I don't feel I'm liable because I believe they sold me a lemon.
Now that I'm examining everything, it doesn't seem fair that they're not attempting to service my car and fix the issue. I went to Autonation Honda in Roseville multiple times. Once there was a wire issue that was triggering the engine light, so they had to repair the wire. They told me another time the hood wouldn't close on the car, so they had to fix that as well. I also had a steering column issue. When I brought it in, they fixed it, which was probably when it started to fail — but they didn't tell me.
- Full dealership
- Pros
- Lemons being sold
- Faulty company practices
- Credit
Preferred solution: Fix the issues with my car.
User's recommendation: Do not buy here !!!!

Verified ReviewerDissatisfaction with dealership
- - Feb 5: test drive with Henry; he was on his phone; Check Engine Light noted.
- - Feb 12 GM Chris asked VIN and price breakdowns; no follow-up in 5 days.
On Feb 5, I visited the Autonation USA dealership in Corpus Christi, Texas, to look at and purchase a truck. I spoke with a salesman named Henry, who appeared not to be knowledgeable about the vehicle.
During the test drive, all he did was be on his phone. I noticed the Check Engine Light was on and informed him. He told me that he would have the truck taken back to the shop to diagnose the Check Engine Light. Back at the dealership, he introduced me to someone he called the Sales Manager, and I told them the payment range I wanted, and then the 'Sales Manager' walked off.
Henry told me he would inform me about the Check Engine Light which never happened. On Feb 12, I received a call from Chris, the General Manager, and I told him of my previous experience, and he asked what he could do for me. I told him about the truck I wanted, and he said to find it and send him a picture of the VIN. He said that he would get back to me very soon.
I sent it and asked for price breakdown sheets on two trucks with no response whatsoever. It has been 5 days with no contact from the dealership. Since 2013, myself and my family have purchased a total of 9 vehicles from the Corpus Christi Autonation Group and have been extremely satisfied with every experience until now. I want to remain a loyal Autonation customer, but this latest experience has left a sour taste in my mouth.
All I wanted to do was purchase a truck for transportation for myself and my son. I have yet to purchase a truck and I await your reply.

Verified Reviewer |Screwed
- - Wrong vehicle description delays registration.
- - Can't register; paying for a vehicle not usable.
- - Autonation and Corporate have not responded promptly.
10/2/2023 @2:04PMI got a response from Kyle in the title department via email. He is trying to help me.
Absolutely NOTHING has been by the dealership to resolve this.
It took a few calls to get them to send paperwork to MVD. I went to register the truck and Motor Vehicle will not register because Autonation put the wrong vehicle description in the paperwork. I am paying for a vehicle that I cannot register. I have called Corporate 4 times and I am still waiting to find out what is going on.
I want my trade in vehicle back but again, no response. I put down money and made payments and cannot get it registered. I am so angry I can't even go on.
They do not deserve a star
I called Autonation 3 times since I first wrote this. Twice I was told they would go directly to finance and tell Tommy Smith I was on the phone.
Didnt happen. Then I left a voicemail for the General Manager, Darin, he has not called me.
I dont' know what to do. I have already extended the temporary registration, when it expires I wont be able to drive it.
HELP please
- Do not know how to sell vehicles
Preferred solution: I want the paperwork corrected so I can register the vehicle and I do not want to pay the $1500.00 they say they incorrectly gave us for a tax credit. NOT MY MISTAKE>

Verified Reviewer |Sell of illegally inspected vehicle
- - Test drive showed jerky steering and front tires: one new, one worn; rear tires bald and the vehicle was sold AS IS with no tire replacement.
Purchased a vehicle from Autonation USA in Corpus Christi recently. During the test drive, I advised the salesman that the steering was "jerky". Upon returning to the dealership, I looked at the front tires, and advised him that, not only was the alignment off, but one tire was brand new, and one was half worn, which any half *** mechanic would tell you that in 4 wheel drive, would eventually lead to problems. I then looked at the 2 rear tires, which were almost completely bald, and advised him, that in the state of Texas, those tires were illegal, and would never pass inspection. I told him that I had been a certified tire installation and repair technician for 12 years, as well as a state certified vehicle inspector for 2. I was assured that, if I purchased the vehicle, they would do everything they could to rectify the problem.
After 5 days of attempting to contact someone at the dealership (notice the 5 days...ththei"5 day guaranteed return policy ", i finally got to go and get the copies of my documents., at which time I was informed they would not be replacing any of the tires...it was sold " AS IS".
I'm not a lawyer, by any stretch of the word, but after working for the state of Texas for 20 years, I have made some friends in the DPS. I have emailed pics of the illegal tires, with a tread depth gauge fully visible, as well as the dealer copy of inspection, AND copies of 4 additional inspection FAILS from certified inspection locations here, and an affidavit from the DPS sgt in the area containing the state and federal codes concerning legal tires on the roadway, as well as the state inspection code, to the Department Of Public Safety in Austin, showing that the vehicle passed inspection with illegal tires.
I'd be willing to bet a year's salary that Corporat Autonation Never sees this, or responds.

Verified ReviewerYes my name is Jeffrey Manning I shared my trade-in information on the website for this dealership in Houston AutoNation USA Houston Texas waited 6 hours for an appraisal. Your website States 30 minut
- - Manager asked for info and title copy and promised a 30-minute appraisal.
- - Appraisal arrived at 4:00, not as advertised, and the call was rude.
Yes speaking with the manager of used cars he told me if I got my information pictures copy of my title to him. He would yet back with me in 30 minutes with appraisal he waited until 4:00 this is unacceptable not as advertised on your website he was very rude when I spoke to him on the phone expectations were high and they came in so low I will never do business down there again be careful of who you're dealing with
