I was really happy with my 2006 Ford Escape. It was in like new condition and low miles. So you may be asking yourself what am I doing at a used car lot on Portland's notorious for used car lots 82nd Avenue. So, there was this lady out driving around on February 1, 2023, and she wasn't paying attention to my car going through the intersection and I couldn't avoid her. I'll spare you all her drama and hysterics. End result, this particularly unpleasant lady's negligence resulted in my car being totaled. After what I thought was an appropriate mourning period, I felt ready to welcome another Ford Escape back into my life. Finding right one was a tiresome process. Some didn't match their profile photo, and that was just a deal breaker. I wanted to have my dads blessing when I thought I found one I could be happy with. He inspected the profile and agreed. So yesterday afternoon we drove to Barron's Auto Sales and Details. It was pretty much love at first sight. My soon to be 2010 Ford Escape was just sitting there all golden and gleaming in the sunshine peeking through the clouds. We got the keys and me and my dad took it for a little test drive. I felt right at home sitting behind the wheel. My dead was impressed with the way it drove. We both agreed I should buy it. My finances were limited as I haven't been paid for my beloved 06. We went into the office and met Hugo Lara and discussed a price we were both happy with. I'm almost embarrassed to admit this but I've never bought a car on my own. Ive always used my own money but my dad has always been there and I'm so grateful for that. So I thought I was going into this with pre approval. Nope. So I'm also grateful for Mr. Lara for giving me a brief education on how pre approval works and his efforts to secure an auto loan for me with a reasonable monthly payment and interest rate. Thank you Hugo Lara for making a used car purchase a pleasant experience. 2023 Review-#5 read more

Barron's Auto Sales, LLC - My new ride 2010 Ford Escape - Car Dealers Near Me - Portland, Oregon

My wife recently bought a 2019 Honda Accord from Barron's Auto, and she loves it! The car got our attention but the customer service sold us. And most importantly, WITHOUT trying to "sell" us. There was no haggling or tricks and they were completely forthcoming with the vehicles history condition etc. On a street of endless used-car dealerships and desperate salespeople, Barrons seriously stood out among the lame competition. And welcomed us as a young couple without looking to take advantage. With help from Sushi and Theresa they were urgent in addressing a few minors such as tire pressure and alignment before purchasing, and we were able to get my wife a reliable and new car that makes me honestly jealous... read more

This place was wonderful to work with! I got a 2019 Honda Accord from them and they were so kind and were no bull when selling the vehicle. They were more than willing to work with us during any bumps in this process. We are new from California and it was the easiest car purchase I've dealt with. Sushi and Theresa were awesome!! read more

Let me explain. I know that when you purchase a vehicle especially one that is very low priced, and 20 years old there will be a few problems you encounter. It's to be expected. This happened to us when we first had a blowout with our tire, that lead to over $800.00 in issues. This was all fixed and we thought everything was good to go. It wasn't and we were certain that we had a lemon on our hands. I made a call to Barron's and explained everything that had happened and what was happening now. Instead of "so sad too bad, as is no warranty", they were very understanding and very willing to correct the issues. Long story short, everything that we knew of that needed to be repaired was done, in addition to things that were found while making the repairs. They didn't have to do this but they did. I know for certain that this was not a money making deal for them as the repairs were almost as much as the car. The point is, they fixed it, made it right and proved that they stand by their word and are honest hard working people who truly believe in making the customer happy. I have purchased dozens of cars in my life many new and a few used. I would without hesitation make a recommendation to visit Barron's and see the staff there. Unlike many "used car sales" tactics that are employed elsewhere, these people want nothing more than to have happy customers. It's easy to do when everything goes right. It's truly more impressive when it doesn't. If your ever are on auto row on 82nd in Portland/Happy Valley or whatever they call it, stop in at Barron's and give them a chance! read more

I have bought 2 cars from Theresa and i have had no problems the cars are in excellent condition for being used cars! My mother was in need of a new car BAD and i took her with Theresa let her know she didn't have credit and was her first car purchase, she did everything and got her into the car she wanted! She drove it home that night. Long story short Theresa is a really bad ass at getting you into a car you like definitely will continue recommending people to her! read more

Out of all the used car lots along 82nd ave, Barron's probably has the best quality vehicles in stock. If you know how to inspect a car before purchasing it, you will notice that Barron went through great lengths prepare their vehicles before putting it up for sale. Sure, it may not be perfect, but it is better than the ones the competition have. The guys here are also down to earth and easy to talk to. They do not waste your time beating around the bush or push you into buying something that is not right you. They are also open to negotiate and as with any used car lot, if you have cash, then the better chance you have at getting at at a fair market value which they also acknowledge. We looked at 6 cars here, it's just that I am very meticulous at choosing a car, and I know what to look for, but I would not hesitate to spend my hard earned money here. The next time we would need another vehicle, I would definitely check them out first. read more

here's the thing: you can't trust car dealers. EXCEPT- you actually can trust these guys. a few weeks ago i bought a 2001 hyundai in what i thought to be good shape, only to have transmission troubles. i took it in, even though there was no warranty, and explained the situation. bob asked the bosses what they could do. they let me trade it in for a way way nicer 2003 beetle that was actually what i wanted in the first place. they are such wonderful, awesome people. you'd think on 82nd that this place wouldn't be possible. but in the end, i was $200 short and they just said, "bring it tomorrow, we trust you." WTF this is above and beyond. so, 5 stars. i know i'll never find a better dealer. read more

Garcia and Theresa were both so patient and helpful during the process. They let me place a hold on the vehicle I wanted until I could make it to test drive it after financing cleared. Very friendly with wonderful customer service! Would definitely recommend read more

I will never buy another car anywhere else after my experience at Barron's! I was initially drawn to a car they had for sale online; I inquired, and got a super friendly phone call returned. I decided to go in personally and check it out and im really glad I did. Our previous car just drove its last mile, so weve been relying on walking and busses as of late and needed a nice daily driver asap. Fernando greeted me when I walked in and made me feel right at home. I never felt like he wasnt beinf honest or truthful, he answered every question honestly and I honestly came out of the experience with a new buddy just from shooting the sh*t for the hour or so I was there. Frank was also beyond awesome- he really did everything in his power to keep me a happy customer and it was really appreciated. Im looking forward to come back for something nicer for the lady. Gotta keep her happy, right? Thanks again dudes!!! read more

I bought a 2006 trailer blazer at Barron's. They're a kind and respectful family business. I would definitely recommend getting a vehicle from them. They helped me pick out the right suv. I'm very happy with them. read more

Just bought my third vehicle from Barron's. Another great experience! Teresa is always a fair dealer and Sushi was a pleasure to work with. You know that feeling when a used car salesperson is trying to get you to buy any old lemon just to make a buck? You won't find that at Barron's. They take the anxiety out of the used car buying experience. I had a horrible experience at Atlas that included an unauthorized hard check on my credit and a "lost key" from my trade in when we tried to leave. Ditch the predatory dealers and buy from Barron's! We will be back for our next vehicle! read more

Great place to buy a car. Friendly staff and it was an easy buying experience. I am happy with my car and their service towards me . I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a car. Thank you, Barrons! And also ask for Sushi! read more

Do not trust these guys. I bought a car from these people and the radiator had so much epoxy on it it wasn't funny. Almost a year later and it still isn't running. I had it one day before it broke and it was supposedly mechanically inspected. They will sell you a lemon with a smile. They will tell you not to blame them but they knew. Don't ever buy a car from these guys. read more

Back in May I wanted to buy a car for my mom for peace of mind that she could get around safely. I went to Barron's because they had such good ratings. We found a basic car which drove very nicely and they eagerly had us buy it off the lot that day. Something that should have just stopped me altogether was my bank didn't even want to give me a loan because they said the car was way over priced by about $2k. The company finagled any 'reduction in price' out of me with the loan they facilitated with a partnered lender by tacking on DMV fees. All of which I wouldn't have minded if my moms car didn't break down the VERY next day. I had to call them multiple times for them to come get the car and help us. Finally they did, and made some quick fix but for 2 months the car barely ran and my mom had to put new oil in it once a week. The cost to fix this problem was $1300. We thought we'd get by but then about 4 weeks ago the car fully broke down. The transmission is wrecked and will cost about $2400. So now my moms car sits broken on her lawn... with a total of $3700 in repairs to do and I have $4500 left to pay on the loan. The car isn't even work the cost of the repairs. Its one of the biggest mistakes I've ever made and Barrons Auto will not return our calls or emails. DO NOT GO HERE. They sold us the worst possible car. At the very least don't EVER buy a used car without a proper inspection. These are not good people, and I'm so confused how they have all the ratings they do. read more

Never bought a car before and I did not know how to decipher the "auto sales" language but the owner, Theresa, made sure I understood everything, from financials to auto repair, without making me feel uncomfortable! She's the sweetest! A smart gal with a kind personality. Definitely recommend this place solely for the customer service from the owner and staff. My car is running great and it's been 2 months. Thanks, guys! read more

A couple months ago we were in the market for a new vehicle. We found a Highlander Hybrid at Barron Auto! It was the EASIEST car buying experience ever. They worked with our budget, they let us take the car to get checked out and they even went above and beyond to fix a minor issue with the head light. The car has SUPER clean and has been running like a champ. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them1 read more

Only go here!!! Bent over backwards to help my family. These people really put families first. Quality vehicles but also the best customer service you can imagine. Helped us out of a tough situation. My kids are nearly ready to buy their first cars and I will only send them to Barron's. Honesty and integrity reigns here. I won't forget how they helped us. read more

Barron's feels more like a match maker then it does a car dealership. I have bought 2 cars from here within the last year. One was for myself and the other for my son. I first stumbled upon Barron's due to an advertised vehicle. I really wanted that car so I went the first thing in the morning and it was love at first sight. I typically love to haggle but the price was really good and she worked really hard for me to get me good financing. There were a few issues that came up after my purchase but unlike any other dealer I have ever dealt with, Teresa Barron fixed all the issues. About a year later, my son was in need of a car and my budget for him was not that great but leave it to Teresa Barron to find a good looking reliable car that was in my price range. My son really loves his car and he knows what a great deal he got too! I will be a lifetime buyer from Barron's Auto. Teresa Barron is the type of woman that you want your daughter to grow up to be. She has integrity...she is intelligent...she is beautiful on the outside and inside. Do yourself a favor and go to Barron's Auto if you are ever looking to purchase a vehicle. read more

My husbands old toyota 4x4 bit the dust and we had to find something else. We knew exactly what we wanted and what kind of payments we would need to have in order to fit our budget. My husband had did research on trucks via the internet and had a list of trucks and dealers to see. Barrons was not on our list, while driving by we spotted a truck there that was of interest. We turned around and went to check it out. Thank GOD we did! We were greeted by Teresa who was such a breath of fresh air, down to earth, straight forward and completely honest. We explained to her our situation what we were looking for and we checked out the truck we saw from the street. It was a winner. I have to say that Teresa and her team were amazing. She worked to get us exactly what we wanted. We currently have six teenagers and I know where we will be purchasing cars for them from. We were treated like family- I will tell anyone I know who is looking for a used car to go see Teresa!!! They went way above and beyond replacing filters and lights and just little things that most dealers ignore because you are buying used. We couldnt be happier with the whole experience!! I know that in most businesses, profit is the bottom line- not here. Their reputation is! read more

Barrons Auto Sales is seriously the #1 BEST car dealer I have ever delt with!! I have bought many vehicles in the past and by far, this was the smoothest car buying experience ever. I happen to drive by and spotted a 2007 Cadillac Escalade. Never thought would I own one, but decided to stop in and take a look. Adrian, the salesman, right away was super nice and friendly. I felt no pressure at all with him. Trust me, I've been to many other dealers and right away, its nothing but pressure. All that does is makes you uncomfortable and makes you want to run away. However, this was not the case. I was comfortable and they talked to me like I was their own family member. After the test drive, I met Teresa. She told me she will work her magic and get me the best interest rate she can. Before I came here, a couple months earlier I was looking at another vehicle, and they gave me an interest rate of 9.75% with my credit score. Teresa, however took her time and searched around and got me right at 4%!! Wow, with low payments!! I was very surprised at how this whole transaction went and working with this group of staffs. They went out of their way and even detailed the whole truck, fill up the tank, etc.. I am one happy customer and will definitely come back when Im ready to buy or trade, in the future. I already have friends and family who will be going there soon. Highly recommended and you wont be dissapointed when you buy from them. read more
