We just purchased a vehicle for our daughter at OCMC. These folks are wonderful! David was our…read moresalesman and he was outstanding! We received a fair price for our trade and the purchase price on the new vehicle was fair. The entire office staff was very personable and kind. We spent several hours with all of them due to forgetting we had a lock on our credit. They were very patient and accommodating through the entire process. I would highly recommend them and will definitely visit there first when looking for a used vehicle.

This would have been a five-star review if it was strictly for Onslow County Motors. I purchased my…read moreJeep Wrangler a couple of weeks ago, and love it. Working with OCM, and with Gary, was great. The price was fair, the trade in for my old vehicle was more than fair. I would highly recommend them. That said, when you make your purchase, pay cash or arrange your own financing. I was under the impression OCM had in-house financing; they do not. The financing goes through a sleazy, sketchy, dishonest outfit called Lendmark Finance. This is a cheap, storefront "payday loan" company. These people lied to me left and right. The application was done on a "docu-sign" program where you click to sign. I was told I would get hard copies, but those only came by email later. On one screen, the woman said, "This is so you can pay online." When I looked at the hard copies later, I realized what I had "signed" for was some worthless Autoplus service that cost $600! And somewhere along the way, I evidently "signed" for Involuntary Unemployment Insurance. I would definitely not have knowingly purchased this because most of my income is from retirement, not current employment. Page after page, lie after lie! If, for whatever reason, you must deal with Lendmark, DO NOT USE THE DOCU-SIGN PROCESS!! Insist on paper copies, sign only the paper copies, and read EVERY SINGLE WORD of what you are signing! As I said, I loved working with OCM. But, unfortunately, we are often known by the company we keep. And Onslow County Motors, in Lendmark Finance, you are running with some very, very sleazy company.

Bought a car there about a year ago. First week the spark plugs went out. They changed them out and…read morepaid for it, sweet, me thinking I should be good on spark plugs for the next at least year. NOPE 3 months later spark plugs go out again. Mind you I've done nothing but drive from work to home and basic errands. After a year I've changed them 5 TIMES. I can't afford to get a new car cause I paid in full. Can't blame them for the car not working but I will blame them for selling me a shitty car.

My first time coming to C-Side Auto. Had a check engine light with a P0456 Code. I tried to fix…read moreit once before but no luck. Decided to take to a mechanic and chose C-Side based on high customer reviews. They were pretty busy when I arrived and I did not have an appointment, so I waited for a bit while they diagnosed my issue. During that wait here is what I observed: 1. I watched a young lady come into the shop explaining she thought she needed to replace all four of her tires. Mechanic went outside and examined her car and came back and told her that her rear tires were in great shape but front tires were badly worn. He explained why there was a difference in wear between front and rear tires (not rotating them and her car was FWD). Then showed her options that made sense for her situation. He could have easily sold her four new tires costing her hundreds more. 2. I observed a customer who had already dripped his jeep off at C-Side and had an initial repair estimate of over $1700, come in and be told that once they tore down his clutch (or maybe his transmission) they were able to determine they did not need to replace some of the parts they thought they needed to. Instead of 1700+ dollars he paid a little over 600. 3. i watched how the manager communicated with his mechanics, this man seemed to have situational awareness on every pending job in the shop and was extremely efficient at managing their time and resources. I was really impressed at his active engagement. There is a good chemistry on that team. 4. For my own vehicle, they isolated the issue (cracked hose) and had it repaired pretty quick. They smoke tested a second time just to be sure. From start to finish, me dropping off on a busy day with no appointment, was about 4 hours. A nice little touch, when I was driving over there, my tire pressure sensor came on. When I left I noticed they had put air in my tires. I never mentioned or asked them to do this, they just did. Little things like that matter. All in all, these folks are honest, thorough, and efficient. You really don't see this kind of auto repair service at many places, especially around here. They earned my trust and my future business.

I don't know about other's experience but mine was amazing. Big ups to Allen, Elliot, and Macon. I…read morewould best describe them as a small dealership with big hearts. Allen and I negotiated back and forth for about a week, came up with a great lease number, which at the last minute I flipped into a buy. Everything was calm and cordial and trust me I prompted several back and forth with Elliot the finance manager, young, bright and reasonable. Once the deal was made and the papers were signed then we got to sit with Macon, the sure you're happy man. My wife would call him a teddy bear but she's not writing this. By far my best new car buying experience ever! Ever! I won't give particulars but do your research, know what you want, and how much you want to pay and if it's possible they'll work it out for you, or at minimum get darn close. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Allen/Shawn and other members of the Sport Durst Subaru of Jacksonville made it a great experience. All of them are personable, professional, and knowledgeable. The next day I had a few questions on some of the new features on the car that we purchased the day before and within minutes I was set. I had such a great experience, I turned around on Friday morning and traded in my travel car a 2021 Subaru Outback for a 2026 Outback Wilderness that they had in the showroom. As the customer I got a great deal, great price, got top dollar for my trade-in.

He showed them what he had in stock that was in their price range. After looking at a few, they sat in 1 and instantly knew it was the one for them. John the sales man then helped them through the process of purchasing as they already had a loan approval through the bank. We were in and out with everything signed in under 1.5 hrs. best time so far. Office was clean and inviting. Prices on cars where comparable to others. All the cars had an extra used car warranty which is an added bonus. Will look here again if anyone in my family is in need of a good place to find a good deal on a used care.

Called Howard on Friday morning while I was at work and asked if I could bring it by Saturday, and he said no problem. I showed up at 830am, didn't even have to take it off the trailer, Howard just climbed right up, looked at few things (fuel, oil, etc), tried some starter spray, and then checked the spark plug, put in a new one and it started right up! Had me in and out of there in 15 min for only $20!! Cannot recommend him enough! My work friends are the ones who recommended him and his business to me, and now I'll never go anywhere else!

Thomas the owner looked at my truck on the lift and explained what we needed to do to repair it. We ordered the new mufflers and a couple days later they arrived.

When I asked how much he told me the lower side of the estimate I said did not expect that. It's been awhile now the exhaust and the welds are all holding fine. They did a great job and sold me flowmasters at a great price. Good Job guys you never met me before that day but you did a great job !!

Soon after I arrived my car was on the lift and being inspected. My problem was localized to a faulty muffler, everything else was tight and leak free. I had to leave town for a few days but returned on Friday for the repair work. Again, they quickly placed my car on the lift and before long I had my new lifetime warranty stainless steel muffler assembly installed and my now quiet car ready to drive off. The pros at Bayside Muffler deserve a shout out for their expertise, professionalism, and excellent customer service! A great job and at a very, very reasonable cost, especially compared to dealership gouging prices. This is a top notch outfit that I would not hesitate to recommend to my family members.

Drove it to Morehead to interstate battery cause he said it needed a new battery which they tested the battery and it had a full charge the car wouldn't start.

So my mother was stuck for three hours trying to get a ride home and figure out with to do with the car. So in other words they ripped me for $1600. Don't EVER EVER EVER GO TO PATRIOT AUTO. Karma will get him. ​
