    Huge dent where someone stabbed the car then scraped it along the top.
    Chris C.

    Horrible business practices. Called in prior. Asked about the price. Checked if there were dealer options installed that would add to the price. Answered me 3 times, no. Estimated APR? Around 3.5%. I want to know up front what to expect. Drove a hour in LA traffic. Showed up. Mandatory "tracker" I would get "access" to as an dealer added device. 3k non-negotiable. Okay fine. I know you have to make money. Checked out the car? Obvious accident damage to the front bumper. Hood was key'd. Huge dent over the passenger side door. Like someone stabbed it and pulled it all along the top. Side of the car key'd. 0% EV charge. Low 12v battery warning. But don't worry though. It "passed" the 124 point inspection.

    I came in at 12pm on 11/11 carless, & walked out at 4:00pm with a 2013 Benz ML350 !!!! I was greated, checked in, & seen within 15 minutes with Mr Neyar, whom felt like family, each department actually really felt like family in a way because they're not just trying to make a sale. They care, & want to see you win & that's exactly what they did for me. This dealership MAKES it possible for you to get a car. good/bad credit, they give OPTIONS. Showcasing a great selection to choose from within my budget. TIP: Please dont have high expectations outside the means of YOUR budget, otherwise, yeah you may not have the experience you expected. They offer in house financing which really helped me achieve getting a car, they do have the option to go through the bank if you prefer as well. Financing was easy breezy & stress free! Cashier was so sweet I wish I got her name but she was lovely.

    2500 sucker tax on any thing you buy Then called it a gps fee Still not a bad deal but 11.5k for a 2015 S550 is not what's advertised as 8k

    I don't even know where to begin. I've never written a review before, but what I experienced at CarWorld in Hawthorne, CA was so unbelievably bad that I feel obligated to warn anyone even thinking about going there. I drove over an hour and a half through traffic with cash in hand, ready to buy a 1992 Lexus SC400 that they had listed online. The photos weren't perfect, but they were close enough to make the trip worth it. I even scheduled an appointment for 7:15 PM to make things easy and professional. The moment I arrived, I realized I'd made a mistake. The car looked nothing like the pictures -- completely misrepresented. But fine, I was still willing to take a look and test drive it. Then came the so-called "salesman," one of the rudest, most arrogant people I've ever dealt with in my life. He treated me like I was wasting his time the moment I asked to test drive the car -- as if showing interest in their own inventory was some sort of inconvenience. When I mentioned paying cash, he snapped, "Cash or financing?" in the most dismissive tone imaginable, like I wasn't even worth talking to. Then he told me something that honestly sounded like a joke -- a mandatory $2,500 "tracking device" fee that cannot be removed and is apparently only charged if you pay cash. Let that sink in. They literally punish you for paying upfront. What kind of shady, back-alley business practice is that? And to top it all off, the car that was listed for one price online was nearly triple the cost in person. It's pure bait-and-switch. Everything about this place screams deception, disrespect, and outright greed. CarWorld isn't a dealership -- it's a scam dressed up as a business. They lure people in with fake prices, treat customers like garbage, and then try to trap you with ridiculous, made-up fees. I went in with genuine intention to buy that night, and left feeling completely disgusted and insulted. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. If you value your time, your money, or your sanity -- stay as far away from CarWorld Hawthorne as possible.

    Haidar gave me a great discount on the car and the interest rate for me having 2 repoes was unbelievable.

I initially intended to use the other party's insurance; however, I ended up paying out of pocket and working directly with the shop. There were some unexpected issues during the process, but Efrain listened to my concerns and took the time to make things right. He professionally refinished the rear bumper area, smoothed the surface properly, and matched the paint much better than I expected. I especially appreciated that he was willing to keep working on the details until the result looked clean and natural again. In the end, I was very happy with how my Prius turned out. Thank you, Efrain!

As…read moresoon as I walked in, they were upfront and transparent about pricing for my brakes and other repairs. They even did a full inspection and cleaning (including a full engine bay clean and diagnostic check) to really see what was going on so they could give me honest and accurate recommendations. The pricing was more than fair! Especially as a woman! I really appreciated how genuine and respectful they were. You don't always get that at other shops, but here I felt completely taken care of and never overcharged. Chris took the time to break everything down for me, explaining what needed to be fixed first and what could wait, which I truly valued. Miguel Angel at the front desk was so kind and welcoming, and Yennie was a great host and took care of my car! I'm so happy with everything and will definitely be coming back this Friday to get the rest of the work done. This place honestly feels like home. I'll be recommending them to all my friends and family HANDS DOWN! This is where I'll be coming every time I need anything for my car!

I worked with Karen, and she was amazing. She was completely set on helping me walk out with the right vehicle for me, not just any car on the lot. She was incredibly knowledgeable, and I could tell she was truly committed to finding the perfect fit rather than just making a quick sale. As a first-time buyer, the whole process was so smooth and stress-free. I'd recommend Gardena Nissan to anyone, especially other first-time buyers.

I provided the exact stock number, and she brought the car out for us, so everything seemed fine at first. After looking at the car, I asked to go over numbers without running my credit, and she agreed. Shortly after, Mohammed came over with pricing but it was for a completely different (and more expensive) car. When I pointed that out, he told me the car I asked for wasn't available, which didn't make sense because we had just seen it and it was supposedly the one brought out for us. I didn't like the numbers, so they said they would "see what they could do." My parents and I then sat there waiting... and waiting... for about 40 minutes. We were the only customers in the dealership, and during that time, I could clearly see Mohammed and the other employee in the office talking and laughing, completely ignoring us. Eventually, we got up and left. What's even more surprising is that we walked right past them on the way out, and they didn't even acknowledge us or realize we were leaving. Very unprofessional and disappointing experience. We will definitely not be coming back. On a positive note, we went to Nissan Downey afterward and got an AMAZING deal and much better service.

My car was sent here only to be inspected -- not repaired, not touched, not taken apart. And yet, when I got it back, it was completely violated: My seat covers were torn off the strap's were cut Both mirrors were tampered with and broken My visors were ripped off And worst of all, they cut off my steering wheel cover There was zero reason for anyone to be inside my vehicle. This wasn't part of any repair order. I had photo documentation of exactly how my car looked before it was taken to them -- so I know for a fact none of this damage existed before. They take no accountability for what happened and offered no explanation. It's clear they don't respect customers, their property, or professional boundaries. If your insurance suggests this place -- say no. You are not required to use their recommended shops. Protect yourself and your car. I repeat: STAY AWAY from this place.

NO ONE ANSWERED and no one called back. Horrible business.
