Best Experience. Best cars with even better people. Memo was the best! They got me financed which I didn't think was possible on my own. And it wasn't just any car. It was the exact car I wanted. The process was painless. It was quick and pleasant. Caesar is an awesome owner. Really respect him and the business he is doing. I'm over the moon! read more

CBM Motors - Used Car Dealers Near Me - El Cajon, California

I accompanied a friend to CBM Motors as she was shopping for a replacement vehicle after being involved in a collision. We identified a 2018 Jeep Wrangler on the lot that met her needs, and the process that followed was, for the most part, straightforward and professional. The initial sales representative was knowledgeable and patient, answering questions clearly and giving us space to evaluate the vehicle. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to meet the price point we were targeting, and we were prepared to walk away from the deal. At that point, the sales manager, Osama, stepped in and made a meaningful difference. He worked with us to bring the price into a range that made sense, and, importantly, he ensured a few outstanding items were addressed before delivery. The vehicle was properly aligned, and a trunk latch bar was repaired prior to pickup the following day. That attention to detail and follow-through was appreciated and helped make the transaction feel fair and complete. Overall, the buying process was easy and mostly professional, in line with what you'd expect from a smaller, independent dealership. That said, the reason this isn't a five-star review comes down to a single but important moment. After declining the first offer and stepping into the manager's office, we overheard the initial salesperson, along with another salesperson on the floor, speaking negatively about my friend and me regarding the failed negotiation. They were unaware we could still hear the conversation. While unfortunate, it was also unnecessary and unprofessional. Aside from that incident, the experience was acceptable. The inventory is limited (roughly 30 vehicles on the lot), so selection may not suit everyone, but pricing flexibility and management involvement were definite positives. In summary: a generally solid dealership experience with good managerial support, slightly undermined by an avoidable lapse in professionalism on the sales floor. read more

CBM Motors - CBM Motors Dealership - Used Car Dealers Near Me - El Cajon, California

Purchase a vehicle here in 2023, the vehicle was used with two previous owners and about forty thousand miles. They ended up selling me an extended warranty.But sold it to me as new instead of used, causing me to lose out on about 40k miles or the equivalent of around $1000 and they are unwilling to make the situation right. I would highly advise anyone to not come here for you cars and if you do, make sure you check everything over 4 times so they dont slip something by you. After about of week of being told they would get back to me they just say they cant do anything. read more

I bought a nissan altima in June 2023, a few months after i had a wierd sound, it turned out to be Bad motor mounts. And now in a very sudden moment im taking my son to school and litterally car started sounding like it was on overdrive, delayed acceleration. To the point that within forty five minutes later , i barely made it home and had to call mechanic , who towed car to check it out. Then for me to be told my transmission failed . Seriously i've only drove 25,000 miles and did all the maintenance when needed. I dont have $5k to get another transmission. I paid this car off cash upfront and to be dealing with this is really devastating. I dont know what to do right now.... read more

This is a long overdue review. Specifically this review is for my salesperson, Mike. My husband was looking for a new vehicle late last year, and we spent a considerable amount of time shopping and researching online before going anywhere. (I used to sell for Ford for years, and know that I am often a salesperson's worst nightmare.) We went to dealership after dealership, and I was stunned to see just a complete lack of honesty and integrity wherever we went. Car sales is not just about fast deals, it's also relationship building. Car buying often isn't one and done. Sometimes it's finding the right vehicle, working the numbers, continuing to follow up and follow through. But, wow, did we have a run of bad luck/ bad salespeople. It seemed every single salesperson we dealt with was young, inexperienced, and had a complete and utter lack of relationship skills or knowledge. It was completely disheartening. This place was the last stop for us after a very long line of garbage sales experiences. I was frustrated and disillusioned, and I'm already impossible to deal with on my best days. But Mike immediately put us at ease. What a breath of fresh air. Someone with real experience who knew what he was doing, and knew what he was talking about. We negotiated, got to an agreeable place, and finalized the deal. Mike, if you're reading this, I'm sorry for the delay in this well-deserved review. But you're worth your weight in gold to CBM, because there's not another soul there that could have sold me that day. Experience matters. I'd refer my own sons to Mike, he's welcome to dinner at our house any time. 10/10 Also, we had absolutely no issues with registration, license transfer, paperwork, etc. read more

I bought a truck back in May 2025 I've been looking for this truck for a very long time it had brand new tires and rims which I like very much after driving it for just a couple weeks on the freeway my wheel came completely off as I was on a road trip with my kids to Palm Springs I contacted the dealership for help which they blew me off over and over again not returning my phone calls I understand it's as is when you buy a vehicle with no warranty but they had the tires put on and they were put on wrong and I had to get all brand new tires because they were the wrong size and they weren't put on the right way which cost me thousands of dollars I had to take my truck to get repaired because they were not answering my calls and I needed to work so I took it to a place by my house and they told me all the wheels were put on wrong and they all could have fell off after the tires were replaced as I was driving to work they never put on the brake caliper and the vehicle lost all Breaking power after doing research the place that I took to get my tires fixed was the same place they took the tires in the first place jtw Motorsports both of these companies are shady and I would not recommend dealing with them read more

we purchased a Tesla from them 6 months ago, we realized the charging was not our thing. so we went to trade it in and upon the inspection the dealer showed us the complete carfax on the Tesla which was something these guys didn't do. And told us it has been in a minor accident previously during the inspection at the new dealeship they found that the car was actually in a more serious accident and had structural damage. we were told that we were lucky that the car didnt catch fire. and we asked CBM MOTORS a few times what exactly it was and what exactly happened and they kept saying it was minor and cosmetic damage and they wouldn't sell a salvage car cause it's illegal in California yet here we are losing money on a salvage vehicle. thanks a lot CBM motors . don't buy here. read more

Friendly associates! Didn't end up purchasing a vehicle with their dealership but was pleased with the kindness of their employees while we shopped. We were interested in a 2016 Chevy Tahoe LTZ but ended up going with a 2019 GMC Yukon SLT from a different dealership. Would have loved to make something work with CBM but maybe next time! read more

Had a great experience with Mike and Lloyd, very pleasant to work with and never made me feel rushed or incompetent. They take good care of you and your bank with still great quality and care you can trust. Definitely sending friends and family this way! read more

Terrible communication. They don't call you back they bullshit you all day and try and give you attitude. FOH

I had been dreading shopping for a car for years. I put it off until I couldn't any more. Once I narrowed the type of car I wanted I started the painful process of reaching out to various Southern California dealers. To say the process became cringeworthy is an understatement...until I reached out to CBM. I inquired about the car I was interested in via their messaging system (mostly because I was burnt out by the swindling and pressure from other dealers). Phil was immediately responsive and very thorough (and so patient with my schedule where other dealers had been pushy). Within days I was sitting in the dealer with my guard up and fatigued from my search. Mike made the experience easygoing and Julieta rocked the finance side of things. Julieta really made financing feel like a pain free straightforward process. I've bought several cars at Mossy and other San Diego dealers and CBM was by FAR the BEST. If you've been putting off purchasing a car or trading a car in- don't hesitate any longer. I trust this dealer so much I immediately told my daughter she should get her car here. I know she'll be treated well. read more

Great service and great inventory. True professional and highly recommended. If you're looking for a reliable vehicle you should come check them out. read more

My husband found a vehicle here and wanted to buy it. They saw him coming from a mile away. The vehicle is ok. The financing was ludicrous. All the extras they sold with the vehicle were COMPLETELY unnecessary, but again....they saw my husband coming from a mile away. Now.....all that extra crap they sold him packaged into the financing price expired. It was supposed GPS tracking of your vehicle and some bs about engraved car parts in case they're stolen. If they're stolen.....they're not coming back, engraved or not. They will say they're offering to lower the aticker price but then sneack in the tracking/gps package and cost for "special engraving" of your car parts to make up for the discount they extend. Snake oil read more

I purchased a car here almost 2 years ago and I'm very dissatisfied with the price and payments , on top of the the car came with a couple of issues also having to change my tires out every other month plus the car had too many miles for the price I got it for ,I also went in to get my license plate on the front , they said to take it to Honda go and have them do it . After I spent all my money there they didn't want to help me with my license plate . Just felt like I got played , I suggest go to Carmax , these guys just want to sell you a car and get you out of there not have to deal with you anymore . read more

I am so picky and a handful when it comes to shopping but Phil stuck around and throughout the span of a couple months looked out for cars coming in that I would might like. He didn't forget about me and made sure i was getting what I wanted. All the people there are super cool (Thank you Julietta for being so sweet and welcoming) and you don't feel pressured into buying a car, which is something I think everyone agrees scares them off a lot. Im happy I got to buy a car off of them and am looking forward to referring friends and family to them. Thanks Phil :) read more

CBM Motors - Used Car Dealers Near Me - El Cajon, California

By far the worst car buying experience ever, I've waited to write this review because I wanted to give CBM Motors the benefit of the doubt I should've seen the red flags from the start when they wanted my 2017 Nissan Altima so bad he was willing to buy a car from a private party so I can trade in my Nissan (which by the way they sold instantly) but the list of problems from the beginning with my 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee are Astronomical but here I am a year later dealing with problems that are costing me sooo much money the sad part is that not only did I buy a car from them my husband did as well. The list of problems are as follows 1. The windshield was making a flapping noise when you drove faster than 50mph I talked to them even recorded a video for them they sent the car to their mechanic and what he did was glue the windshield flap down lol which only made a whistling noise when you drove the car so they called their windshield guy who ended up ordering parts after parts he ended up fixing it. 2. check engine light came on twice, one month after I got the car then again on month 5 and month 6 and now again month 11 so i used my extended warranty 5 times total since I got the vehicle 3. I literally had to call and bug them over and over and I even showed up for my registration which I got the vehicle October 16 didn't get the registration until December 15 But I would honestly not recommend anyone to go here and get a vehicle stray away from This dealership read more

They did not follow through with our agreements. I asked 3 times to have the vehicle registered with commercial plates. That didn't happen, which means that I can't park in commercial zones as a business. I also had an agreement to get a full tank of gas (for which I did some work for them), That didn't happen either. I feel no confidence in getting any cooperation with any post-sale needs. I also only received 1 key and it is over $100 to get another key and remote. read more

I DO NOT RECOMMEND First I wanna say we were very happy with our purchase at first. With what LOOKED to be a great vehicle. All the staff st at CBM were very helpful until they received our down payment & all the paperwork went through , then it was days later responses, no answered phone calls, and rudeness. Beyond the personable aspect .. now we're onto our vehicle. We've had our vehicle in the shop more times and for more periods than we've been able to drive it. 4 times now & currently at the shop again for a pretty big issue. All of which are parts that happened to become faulty within a 2 months span when it's only being driving 10-15 miles a day tops? No way! They were helpful the first go round but after, it was a "well you have your warranty". So personally I believe they sold us this vehicle knowing it had issues. Now we're looking into options on what to do. AGAIN, I DO NOT RECOMMEND read more

Zero for these guys. I went in at 10am first thing in the morning to test drive a blue 2014 f150 that had 63k miles listed at 18,995k. And from the pictures it looked almost like new i side and outside, what a steal right.... So after test driving it I fell in love with it and brought back to the lot. But after closer inspection I began to notice some small cosmetic issues with the car such as a big scratch on the window and some dents on the body. One of the major ones was I noticed on the passenger side of the body it seemed like they tried to patch up a dent because I noticed the paint didn't match completely and you can smell the odor of paint, it was cheaply done. So I thought well no biggie I'm getting a good deal those are just a few hundreds in repairs let's go Inside and crunch numbers. Long story short I was negotiating for him to sell it to me for 20k out the door but he wanted to sell it for 20,500 out the door. And I said no 20k or I'm going to continue to look elsewhere, so he convinced me to take another look around the car together so that I could show him all of the imperfections in the car. And after looking at the car I realized that the tailgate door wouldn't close completely on the right side (the same side where they did that cheap patch job on the outer passenger side of the truck bed. Turns out that the reason why the tailgate wouldn't close completely is because the truck bed itself was crooked! Mind you in the CARFAX it said no accidents or damages reported!! So I pointed that out to him and as soon as I pointed that out he said "okay my friend you have a deal 20k it's yours" hahaha yea he gave me the price I wanted one once he realized he wasn't gonna fool me this truck was hit on the passenger side hard enough to bend the truck bed and tried to hide it!!! Bunch of crooks I left happy knowing I didn't buy it, please closely inspect your cars! read more

CBM Motors - My sons first car! - Used Car Dealers Near Me - El Cajon, California

Buyer beware!!!! I purchased a truck and the transmission went out within months. I was sold a third-party warranty by CBM motors. I contacted Cbm Motors they acted like they were going to help me. They stopped taking my phone calls emails and ignored my voicemails (Julieta). The third-party warranty company will not cover it. I paid $3500 for this fake warranty. My transmission cost me $10,000 to fix and Cbm Motors did nothing to help me. The salesman was a nice guy I guess that's a 1 star. Again buyer beware! read more

CBM Motors - Used Car Dealers Near Me - El Cajon, California

I had been looking for a car for the 1st time in my life without my husband. It was also my first time buying a used car. I was actively looking for a Subaru and came upon CBM Motors. The finance lady was VERY nice when I found a Subaru that I liked. They were fine with me bringing rhe car to my mechanic. I left the dealership with the car on a very rainy day. Not only was there no gas in the car, the left break light was out and the windshield wipers were horrible which is really dangerous under the circumstances that day. After my mechanic finished his inspection, over 3 hours, he said the following things were wrong with the car: 1. The engine was leaking oil 2. The tires were from 2017 and all cracked - the car needed 4 new tires (CBM Motors told me the tires were fairly new) 3. The breaks had been recently done but a really crappy job with old parts. The car needed new front breaks due to cheap & sloppy work. When I returned to the dealership the finance lady was intent on selling me the car. Her personality completely changed when I asked them to fix the problems that I would have had to pay for (over 6K). The car out the door was close to 30K. She asked me and my friend to sit down which we weren't interested in doing. She then proceeded to tell me that their cars go through 100 point inspection and there is nothing wrong with the car. This is after I had brought the car to a very reputable mechanic. After I said that I will buy the car if they fix everything that is wrong with it her response was "we're not a good match." Surprised? Don't be. PLEASE do your due diligence when purchasing a used car, even if it's from a dealership. They will do anything for a sale, including lie about anything and everything. They don't care about you, your safety or any future problems that will cost a fortune to fix. It's all about the almighty dollar, at your expense. CBM Motors were very nice until hard questions were asked. I don't understand why they get 5 star reviews. Something isn't right with this dealership and I most certainly would NOT recommend them. read more

Went online to look at for BMW cars. I saw CBM motors had good prices on some. Drove there with my wife after work, only to deal with two gentlemen that told me the online price and what a guy named RAY had told me where wrong. They were so rude and unprofessional. One was smoking a cigarette while trying to tell us I was wrong. Walked over to EL CAJON BMW and walked out with a new car from there. I don't if they didn't want to help us because we are part of the LGBTQ+ community but it was just a horrible experience do not recommend. read more

Great experience, bought two cars from CBM, one had some problems and they did the right thing...

Everyone here was so helpful and amazing! Jean and Osama did an excellent job helping me get the car I wanted! I went from an old shabby Lexus to this 2016 LEXUS IS 200t!! I am definitely recommending this place to all my family and friends interested in purchasing a car! read more
