    Lisa R.

    So we went car shopping on a Saturday. It was a pleasant experience. My daughter did need a co signer. She didn't need to put any money down and was able to drive off the lot with her dream car. So the following Monday comes, and someone calls our daughter saying her loan didn't go through without a down payment. So they want her to return to Hyundai and put a down payment, and have the contract rewritten. My husband was furious. He was upset because he felt lied to, lied to by the salesman Sultan and lied to by the finance manager Beatriz since we were told our daughter didn't have to put anything down and we already had our contract that says we didn't put anything down. So my husband and daughter had to return and redo everything since Saturday meant nothing. My husband and I have never had a bad experience with a car dealership before. It makes me wonder if this is just Hyundai?

    1-Star Review -- Bait-and-Switch Pricing & Shady Practices I visited Bakersfield Hyundai on Aug 2, 2025, to purchase a 2025 Palisade Calligraphy. It was advertised online at $50,879, but they quoted me $55,879 before tax -- a $5,000 markup with no explanation. The out-the-door price they gave me was $61,331.78. VIN: KM8R74GEXSU906692 They did the same thing with a 2025 Palisade SEL Premium FWD -- listed online for $43,705, but quoted at $48,705 before tax, with an OTD total of $53,519.93. VIN: KM8R44GE0SU934509 This isn't a misunderstanding -- it's deliberate bait-and-switch pricing. They show one price online and give you a much higher one in person, before taxes or legit fees are even added. They also copied my driver's license without my consent and asked for my full address just to give a quote. On top of that, the Calligraphy I came to see wasn't even there -- the manager had taken it home for the weekend, yet they were still advertising it as "new." Completely unethical. I walked out and will never return. Double-check VINs, trims, and pricing if you even consider doing business here. Update (Aug 6, 2025): Your response is just a generic copy-and-paste that completely ignores the serious issues I raised in my original review. You didn't address the $5,000 bait-and-switch markup on the 2025 Palisade Calligraphy -- or the fact that the same thing happened with the SEL Premium trim. You also didn't explain why my driver's license was copied without my consent, or why you asked for my full address just to give a quote. On top of that, the vehicle I made an appointment to see wasn't even on the lot. This wasn't a misunderstanding -- it was deceptive and deliberate. And your failure to address it in any meaningful way only reinforces the shady experience I had. Potential buyers: take note -- this dealership relies on misleading prices, high-pressure tactics, and clearly has no interest in honest customer feedback.

    Man, the staff here really isn't it except for Tommy, he's cool. But most of the others act like they don't care at all. It's like dealing with a bunch of high school dropouts with bad attitudes with gut issues all bloated

    Just finished our 3rd purchase from this dealership after being loyal customers for over 5 years…read more Unfortunately, this experience didn't match the high standards we've come to expect from Audi. We were told multiple times the car would be ready "in an hour," but after waiting for hours, we left and were promised delivery--which didn't happen. The next day, the car still wasn't properly prepped: it wasn't washed or detailed, and the ResistAll we paid for hadn't been applied. Disappointing experience overall compared to our past visits. That said, I do want to recognize the positives. Daniel in finance worked hard to get us to a number we were comfortable with, and Gary caught details that saved us nearly $700 in registration fees. A special thank you to Cooper, who took initiative to resolve our issues and concerns and truly turned the experience around--he treated us like family, made sure the car was fully detailed with the ResistAll applied, and personally delivered the car to our home. It's because of these individuals that I decided to change my original 1 star rating to a 5 star rating.

I will say my credit is not the best, but almost three days and over 25 inquries on my credit is ridiculous. Come to find out a week after I bought the truck, the automatic passenger running board stopped working after binding and making a griding noise for about 4 or 5 cycles. I ended up just taking the running boards off because it is a used vehicle and the extended warranty that i paid thousands for conveniently didn't cover it. The last straw was when I took the vehicle to the local dealership to have recall work done, just to find out the metal key that detaches to unlock the spare tire lock and driver door is for a different vehicle. Since the spare has to come out for the module replacement for the recall, it could not be done. When I spoke to Jacob, the salesman who ghosted me as soon as I found issues with the truck, he said his manager would call me and address the issue. This was after the used car manager said im out if luck because it was a used car sold as is. I have called Jacob 3 more times over the past week and have not heard an answer from anyone.They sold me a vehicle with the wrong key, and apparently that is my problem now according to the used car manager. I am contacting the Califonia Department of Consumer Affairs, the BBB, and the Bureau of Automotive Repair over this.

The vehicle I bought is defective and has many problems. It's a nightmare! And the worst part is that they make promises they never keep. There's absolutely no transparency! And it seems that if those running this business aren't capable of solving problems, what will the others be like? The vehicle has already left me stranded on the street three times. I've spent over $1300 out of my own pocket and haven't been able to fix it. The vehicle has transmission problems, the disc brakes don't work, the TRD is damaged, and it's illegal to sell a vehicle like this. The transmission fluid is contaminated, the brake fluid is contaminated (this was the only thing the dealer changed). Everything else is useless. And I'm losing thousands of dollars. I hope you're not the next victim. I call and leave messages, but they don't answer my calls. I've been to the dealer more than 6 times and the only thing they corrected was the brake fluid change. Today, March 25, 2026, I was informed that they would refund my money, but that they would not reimburse me for any of the funds I had spent on repairs and maintenance for the vehicle. I have purchased no fewer than 14 vehicles--both new and used--from this dealership. There is absolutely no transparency left, and not only that, but they also informed me that they would no longer sell me any vehicles--despite knowing full well that the vehicle I purchased suffers from numerous serious defects. This dealership should be investigated for endangering human lives by selling vehicles with such serious flaws--defects that could potentially lead to a fatal accident. Bill Wright Toyota should change its policy regarding used vehicles--specifically, it needs to thoroughly inspect its used cars before selling them to the public. Sammy Jarrar, a manager at Bill Wright Toyota, should be disciplined for treating customers inhumanely and for failing to be more transparent.

The lack of communication within your own team, and with customers, has been extremely disappointing. I've brought my vehicle in multiple times for the same A/C issue. I initially tried scheduling an appointment and even explained my concerns through your automated phone system, but nothing seemed to be documented or addressed. When I brought the vehicle in again, I was informed that the diagnostic had not been completed and that we were waiting on insurance. I then brought the vehicle back with a scheduled appointment, only to find out that there were no notes in my vehicle's file regarding the previous visits or the work that had been discussed. As a result, I was placed in a loaner vehicle. My car has now been at the dealership since Thursday/Friday, and today is Monday. I have received no updates on the status of my vehicle. I'm expected to return the loaner tomorrow, yet I have no idea whether my vehicle is repaired, still being worked on, or when it will be ready. This lack of communication has already affected my work schedule. I've had to reschedule commitments and have lost income because I've made time to bring my vehicle in repeatedly. I've also called several times over the past week and during previous visits, and my calls have simply gone unanswered. This isn't a matter of playing phone tag--it's that no one is answering or returning my calls. What's especially frustrating is that the dealership seems very prompt when it's time to discuss payment, but not when customers need updates, answers, or support. Angel Montano was helpful, with limitations and did the best he could.

He exceeded our expectations in every way. There was zero pressure at any point, just clear, efficient communication and a genuinely friendly, professional approach. He did not come across as a typical salesperson at all. It felt more like working with a trusted advisor or concierge who truly had our best interests in mind. He made us feel comfortable the entire time, like we were dealing with a friend or even family. The entire process was seamless. Most of it was handled through text and phone calls, which made everything incredibly convenient.
