    Harassment from Israel and Roger

    ***NEVER GO TO BAY AUTO EXCHANGE*** WARNING: THEY HARRASS ELDERS AND TAKE ADVANTAGE. This junky dealership has horrible cars and are a complete scam. They also LIED ABOUT FEATURES ON THE CAR. My family and I had to come back THREE different times because they were too lazy and extremely unorganized to get their own paperwork right. Their employee ROGER was a straight up smartass, rude, unprofessional, and disrespectful and was talking down on us the whole time. On our 3rd visit, to sign paperwork AGAIN they were yelling at me for not having insurance even though they NEVER asked for it and just assumed. They HARASSED me, especially the BALD ARAB GUY, told me i wasn't allowed to take the car, and made the whole situation extremely uncomfortable. After I left, Israel and Roger from the wannabe dealership blew up my phone 20 times leaving voicemails threatening to repo the car even though I had already spent hours there multiple times trying to sign but they're completely stupid and lazy and couldn't get the work done the first time. Then ISRAEL SHOWED UP TO MY HOUSE UNANNOUNCED AFTERHOURS complaining and demanding I finish the signing or hand over the keys. I told him take the sh*tty car and to return my money in cash because that's how I paid, he refused and even tried calling the tow truck. I called the POLICE on him and he got scared so he called his boss and also refused to give out his name (bald arab guy). The boss gave me my money and left after acting arrogant and as if they did nothing wrong. My family and I are traumatized by these people and scared my elderly grandmother. PLEASE NEVER GO TO THIS DEALERSHIP EVEN IF THEIR PRICES LOOK OK FOR YOU, they are so shady, super unprofessional, and downright traumatizing. SAVE YOURSELF THE STRESS AND NEVER EVER GO TO THIS JUNKY A** DEALERSHIP.

    Check engine light, stability control, and the only parts that where repaired other then the seal

    DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!! YOU WILL HAVE TO OAY OUTTA POCKET FOR PARTS AFTER DRIVING AWAY. they will hide things from you and will treat you like your dumb if you k lw what your talking about. The rear axle seal is leaking, i have to get a whole new exhaust because of the amf valve. I need to replace all sway bars lower as well, My check engine light came on, stability control, and the catalytic converter is bad and they deleted that check engine light code. There was a crack in the window that now is huge. The suspension is still messed up after I kept telling them to fix it they only fixed rear and front struts after promising in writing they would fix the alignment which you need to take care of all of the suspension first to do so.but after that one part they don't wanna take care of anything else they promised. Please do not trust them. Its extremely dangerous what they made me drive off the lot and they should not be selling a car in this condition. Horrible experience with this dealership, they told me I got accepted for a car and to come up that same day. as soon as I got I got there they told me I can't get the car anymore but they have a ss for sale instead. I chose that go with the car and rhey had me give them my down payment. They didn't even get me accepted which is crazy because that's the only reason I came in. And not only that they took 4 days to finally get me accepted and held on to my down payment so I couldn't go anywhere else. When I finally got accepted and saw the car it was to late or they made me feel like it was too late so I made a deal which we both had in writing that they would fix all the problems That where wrong with the car. Snd they only fixed one problem and do not wanna take care of what else they promised me. All in all make sure you don't give them a down payment with out making sure the car is good. Take it to a mechanic.

    I highly recommend stopping by and checking their inventory you will definitely find something of your taste. Was able to come in and sell them a car as well!! Israel kept in touch all the time and helped out a lot when i was looking into an m3 i wanted to purchase. Will be bringing the family to shop here.

    Update. 1 months plus later this car I was asking that supposedly was sold is still there collecting dust. There must be something seriously wrong with it that they can't sell it.

    This is the repair they did to my car after I purchased it from here

    See all

We were communicating while he was out of town and I would have gladly bought a car from him. Instead I bought a car from somebody who will say is just basically I got screwed. And Chris is going out of his way to help me even though we have never done business. That is such a rare quality that I can only hope that anybody with enough sense would see this and buy a car from him. He has been overwhelmingly supportive, offered his help as best he can wherever he can, and even stayed in touch just talking back and forth about how badly things have turned on for me with the purchase of the car I made from somebody on Craigslist who is also a wholesaler kind of guy. Anyway five stars aren't enough. I'm sure whatever products he have or quality products. But beyond that the integrity, the kindness, the actual caring far beyond what must anyone would be used to or think possible. In fact I'm trying to find a way to get rid of or get out of what I bought and get something from him. I begun telling everybody about him. Anybody looking for a car.

I did and ours is still running fine.

He was in Northern…read moreCalifornia and I was in Southern California, but he made the entire process extremely easy. He arranged to have the vehicle delivered to me for a very reasonable price--around $600. I trusted Sal, and he absolutely delivered. The vehicle arrived looking practically brand new, without a scratch on it, and it has had no problems whatsoever. I also had difficulty getting financing, but Sal worked with me and helped make it happen. My only advice is to carefully review the financing terms. I financed through Westlake, and the interest rate was high, so I plan to pay the vehicle off as quickly as possible to avoid paying too much interest. Overall, I am extremely pleased with my purchase. Sal was trustworthy, helpful, and made buying a vehicle from hundreds of miles away surprisingly simple. I would gladly recommend Yama Auto Brokers.The car was cheaper than others wanted to charge me. Others wanted to charge me many fees for paint and security fees, but Sal only charged me the taxes and registration plus the vehicle has very low miles and it was a lot cheaper than other vehicles just like it. I am very happy and haven't had any issues with the car so far.

During the original 90-day warranty, CarMax took care of several issues and made sure the car was properly sorted. What impressed me even more was how they handled concerns that surfaced much later. When my BMW specialist discovered additional issues during a recent service, I reached back out to CarMax. David and the Fremont service team listened to the situation, reviewed the history, and offered to help even though the original warranty had long since ended. I ultimately got MaxCare to cover the larger repair, saving CarMax that expense. CarMax still followed through on their willingness to help and provided goodwill assistance toward another repair my specialist identified. Used cars can develop unexpected issues. What matters is how a business responds when something goes wrong. CarMax Fremont listened, treated my concerns seriously, and worked with me toward a fair solution instead of looking for a reason to say no. Huge thanks to David and the service team for standing behind the car and taking care of me well after the sale. This experience gave me even more confidence in servicing with CarMax again. I'd absolutely recommend the Fremont location for any CarMax vehicle servicing!

Take your business somewhere else. PS: I even tried to apply working here and they gave me BS results. I went through several interviews-- Was told that everything went extremely well and then crickets for days, when I was also told I would get a reply by the end of the week and still nothing. Had to reach out multiple times just to be told that I didn't get the job. Horrible management and terrible communication.

Excellent communication, service, and timely replies. I received a significant discount on the OTD price, even when including the BuySide Auto fee. On top of that, I NEVER had to step into a dealership, talk to a salesperson directly, spend hours playing the "let me ask my manager" game, or have to talk to a Finance manager and repeatedly say NO to unnecessary options. All communication was easily done through email and text, although phone and in-person contact was also available. Process starts with completing a convenient online request. From there, Kim contacted me to fully understand my wishlist, range of optional requirements, and any non-negotiables. After reaching out to their dealer network, within a day she provided a list of potential matches with estimated OTD prices, which included some in SoCal available for transfer to the Bay Area and cars still in production with estimated availability dates. I had a lot of questions and some requests and Kim was very responsive and instrumental in relaying them to the dealer and advocating for me. Even my request to remove all dealer installed options was negotiated by Kim and granted by the dealer with no hassle on my end. I paid the BuySide Auto fee to reserve the car for purchase and when the car was available I opted to pickup at their office in SF. Home delivery to SF is also currently no charge, while delivery outside of the city is available with a modest fee. Upon first contact, I asked if weekend pickup or delivery was available, since their normal hours are on weekdays. Kim made note of it and remembered my preference even after the sale was completed. Chris was able to make himself available for Saturday pickup! We took a walk around the car took a look inside. We spent no more than 10 minutes reviewing and signing paperwork, received my keys, and I was off with my brand new car! Both Kim and Chris were great to work with and I have no hesitation in working with them again for future car purchases.
