My mom sold cars when I was a kid--that's how she put food on the table--so I grew up around brand-new vehicles and the hustle it takes to make it work. Yesterday was something special. My son Robert purchased his fourth BMW, and the experience at CarMax was incredible. Everything went smoothly. The staff were kind, professional, and straight-up honest. No games, no pressure--just solid service and respect. If you're in the market for a vehicle, I highly recommend checking out CarMax in Spokane. I don't think you'll be disappointed. And here's something even better--my son runs his own business tuning BMWs. If you're a BMW owner or enthusiast, check out his work at bmtuned.com. He knows these cars inside and out. Congratulations, Robert--I'm so proud of you. You've worked hard, and it shows.

Hi Doug, I wanted to…read morethank you for helping me get my daughter's first car. It was a happy coincidence that you opened your business across the street from where I live and I saw the car that I needed at a price better than I would have expected. The great part was that I didn't even have to negotiate you down on the price. It was already marked at a wholesale price...I know because I was a buyer for a used car dealership in Yakima for about 3 years. You are a man of character trying to provide a good future for your young son. I especially liked hearing him talk about how he helped you design your business cards. That was very cool and it made me happy that I could help support that. I wish you the best of luck and I know who I'm going to call for my next vehicle. Kodi Mather

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS AUTO DEALER. I purchased a vehicle from them in August 2024. I was…read moretold I would have my title and plates in about two months. When those two months came and passed I called asking for an update. after confirming my information I was informed that the person who handled their titles was out of the office. This was the beginning of over a year of calling them and receiving the same run around. He was always out of office. I even asked what hours he would be in and called at the appropriate time only to be told the same spiel. I live an hour and a half away and after six months of getting the run around I went in and all they did was offer to give me fresh temporaries. This was only a bandaid for a wound that needed stitches. Soon after I was able to get in touch with their title person who, I found out, was one of the owners. He gave me more excuses about how there was a hold up with the DOL. I waited patiently for another six months before finally being beyond fed up and filed a complaint with the Washington DOL. I was then pointed towards filing a claim against their dealership bond. It was only after I filed a claim against their dealership bond that they got me my title and plates, two days after they had been contact by the bond. What this tells me is that they had the ability to get me my title and plates before this due to the speed at which they were able to acquire them when they were threatened with financial liability by the bond agency. In the end, I received my title and plates in Feburary of 2026. This was beyond unacceptable. I have never written a bad review but have been so incensed by the entire ordeal that I felt it was my duty to inform others before they make the same mistake I did by doing business with this auto dealership. Believe it or not, this is the spark notes of the entire process I was forced to go through to use the vehicle I had purchased.

Cannot warn you to stay away enough…read more I am now $20k into a $10k car I bought there. Sold me a Subie that they had "done all the work" that needed to be done at 200k miles. Headers, gaskets, etc. Had to take the car back in within a week because it wouldn't shift into gear from park properly. It wouldn't accelerate from a stop appropriately and would just shut itself off while idling at a stop light or sign. They supposedly got it in and said it was a sensor issue and "fixed it". (Remember that for later) Then the car dropped all its oil and seized up within months of it being purchased. They insisted it was my fault. So the "insurance plan" they sold me for another $800 wasn't going to be any good either. (Even if the oil wasn't checked in 3 months' time.... which it WAS... it shouldn't have vanished within a few months of having the engine overhauled). Of course, they offered to replace the engine, if I paid them for it. So, it sat on their lot while I found a REPUTABLE mechanic to look at it. Once I had found the best garage in town for Subarus, they wouldn't even put the car on their trailer to take it to the shop, I had to pay for the tow off their lot. And that sensor issue they "fixed"? The mechanic said all the warning lights I took it back to them to check was because someone did a quick fix by jamming/bypassing the sensor. Literally, the WORST car purchasing (or mechanic) experience I have ever had. Ric (salesperson) was rude and felt comfortable swearing around my wife and son. Should have been my first red flag. I just thought he was trying to be "buddy buddy". Nope, turns out "Skeezy salesperson" is a stereotype for a reason. Stephanie started scolding me on the phone when I called and was upset with the weeks of delay that involved all these issues. YOU MUST AVOID THIS CAR LOT AT ALL COSTS.

ZERO STARS This used to be my trusted mechanic and I'm so…read moreupset I have to write this but I don't want anyone to deal with what I'm dealing with. I bought my mini cooper from this business and the experience was great! I subsequently took my car into Bill every time and thought he was honest and had integrity. As single woman, I had other mechanics present as untrustworthy so it was wonderful find an honest dealership. NOPE! My mini cooper is now almost destroyed because of their shoddy work and I'm out thousands of dollars and I've had the run around. Below is part of the complaint I've made to both the BBB and Attorney Generals Office. We are waiting on a response from the business to determine if small claims court is next to recoup our losses. He installed after market parts in my car repeatedly with repairs lasting barely two years. THERE IS A PATTERN HERE OF CHEAP PARTS, NO ACCOUNTABILITY, MYSTERY CHARGES AND ZERO TRANSPARENCY. HE WILL PUT IN CHEAP AFTER MARKET PARTS THAT WILL CRAP OUT IN ABOUT TWO YEARS AND DESTROY YOUR ENGINE. BELOW IS PART OF THE LEGAL FILINGS WITH BBB AND ATTORNEY GENERAL OFFICE : I am writing to formally demand immediate resolution regarding the defective turbo installation and associated damages to my vehicle, which directly stem from your shop's substandard workmanship and repeated use of faulty parts. This is not the first time I have been left to bear the financial and emotional burden of your shop's negligence, and I will not tolerate this pattern any longer. The Facts Defective Turbo Installation and Catastrophic Damage: The turbo installed in my vehicle has suffered a catastrophic failure in just over two years, despite the fact that I rarely drive my car. The failure has caused 3 liters of oil to pour into the catalytic converter and seep into the tubing, leaving my vehicle in a disastrous state and requiring extensive corrective work. History of Shoddy Workmanship and Defective Parts: You replaced the valve cover, but that repair barely lasted two years before the part failed. Despite the warranty, I was forced to cover out-of-pocket expenses that should have been fully covered. Now, the turbo you selected and installed--a critical component--has proven equally unreliable, further demonstrating a troubling trend of subpar repairs. Lack of Transparency: Despite my repeated requests, you have failed to provide a receipt or clear documentation for the turbo's cost. The only receipt you've shown is for $298 for mounting pieces, leaving $702 unaccounted for in the $1,000 charged. Your refusal to provide basic documentation raises serious questions about transparency and accountability. Negligence in Professional Standards: Your shop's continued reliance on parts that do not meet quality standards, coupled with inadequate accountability for failures, has cost me time, money, and trust. You've stated in the past that you operate with integrity and "family values." Yet, this is the second time I've had to deal with defective parts from your shop, and the financial and emotional toll is staggering. You've acknowledged the turbo failure may be covered under warranty, but even so, this situation highlights the systemic issues with your choice of parts and service quality.

HORRIBLE DEALERSHIP! I could go on and on about how much this dealership has caused our family the…read moreworst experience with cars in the last two years. I would NEVER recommend them, they do shotty work, and con artists when it comes to selling you "reliable" cars and doing "reliable" work to maintenance those cars. The amount of times they put our family in true dangerous situations is ridiculous. And them pushing these crappy warranties on you is bogus. They even submit false claims to the warranty company, get their replacement parts from junk yards, and don't even complete work that they then bill you for. The only reason we continued to bring our car for maintenance with them was because we wanted it covered under the warranty. OH! And they claimed as your car depreciates in value, so does your warranty coverage - COMPLETE bogus and false information. That is NOT how warranties work. Within the last year, Car Emporium "completed" maintenance on our car to "fix" it, billed the warranty company and us as well for false work. I kid you not, just 2 months after they "completed" their work, it died on the side of the road on two separate occasions. Both times, we took it back to our trusted mechanic who did the same work all over again that we had already thought was done by Car Emporium, so even more money out the door. It is absolutely ridiculous, and I will say it until I am blue in the face - DO NOT EVERRRRR buy cars from this dealership!!!!!!!!!!!!

November 30, 2024, purchased a 2014 Forester with 150K miles on it that was supposedly "completely…read moregone through" by River City Auto Sales, who purport to be Subaru certified mechanics. Car smells like wet dog, but that is what it is. After I signed the contract and ran my debit card, Chris mentioned that the one key that came with it "needed to be reprogrammed." 1. Between Christmas and New Year, dead battery. I don't know the history of this car and batteries eventually need replacement, especially when the weather starts to gets cold, and the battery that was in the car when I bought it was just barely old enough that replacement was recommended, so to be safe I got a new battery ($175). Part of having a car, inconvenient that it happened within a month of buying it. Irritating on a "new to me" car, but not their fault. 2. End of January, I take the key that "needed to be reprogrammed" in to be reprogrammed. Turns out it had a bad chip. New keys are $350 each and depending on where you buy them, there could be an additional $100 programming fee. (Funny story: By this point, I had my snow tires on. They're mounted on their own wheels, which came off an '07 Forester and don't have the TPS sensor so the TPS light is on as long as I'm running my winter tires... and the new key can't be programmed with the TSP light on.) Irksome, but not their fault. (Running total: battery + key = $525) 3. Week after Valentine's Day, the new battery is dead. A couple of jump starts, a week's worth of rides to work, two shops and a $90 diagnostic later, the issue was determined to be a corroded terminal on the positive cable. Huge PITA, but a lot of other people looked at that same cable and didn't see anything amiss. It happens. (Running total: battery + key + dx = $615) 4. Mid-May. The key won't come out of the ignition. Have it looked at, it *could* be the key I bought from the hardware store isn't talking to one of the sensors in the ignition, shifter, or plate, so I get another new Subaru branded key. (Running total: battery + key + dx + key = $965) 5. Early June. It's not the key, so we schedule shop time. Turns out to be the sensor in a plate. $600. It's a 10+ year old car, this is a known issue, and I had the bad luck to have it happen to me. Running total of things not their fault is now $1295, but... 5. While it's in the shop, given the battery and shifter issue, we run the service history and guess what? The car that was "completely gone through" by a shop with a big' ol "Subaru-certified mechanic" sign in the window is overdue on all scheduled maintenance from 90K onward. Catching that up came in at just under $2700 and we're not done yet, because while all of this is playing out, I had occasion to turn on the AC for the first time and found out that it doesn't work because the compressor's bad. (River City Auto Sales took in this car when the weather permitted testing the AC; when I bought it in November, it was cold enough that testing the AC was a moot point.) A new AC compressor and changing the serpentine belt while we're there are going to be another $2100. I'm not mad about the nearly $1300 of things that aren't their fault, but the $4700 worth of things that should have been addressed when the car was "completely gone through" has me pretty pissed off.
