I was interested in one of the cars being auctioned at their site, so I looked a little deeper into their business. Initially, i found a couple of online forums that provided positive reviews about the "auction company" but the words used by the original posters were eerily similar. Sure enough after using Google lens to investigate one of the pictures used on their site, i found all the pics posted at another auction site with a YouTube video posted two years ago. I guess you really can't trust online forum posts or reviews anymore. Either they're posting the reviews themselves or have friends and family posting them. SMH. I almost completed their registration process of uploading my driver's license pic and a picture of me holding my driver's license. One can only imagine what they intend to do with your information.

It's old and they don't make 'em any more, but the staff at Paretti have never given me attitude or shown any reluctance to work on it. This has happened to me before with other old cars (I keep them a long time if I like them) and service attempts at other dealers (I don't keep them if I don't like them). I find I would rather bring my Mazda here than the local shops I use for my other vehicles. The showroom and waiting areas are modern and clean and comfortable. The staff are friendly and they don't treat me like an idiot who doesn't know anything about cars. The sales guys always try to sell me a new one to replace the old, but they aren't pushy about it. The service work has been great so far - no return trips to straighten out something that didn't get right the first time. I will gladly go back again. When my car finally dies I might go buy the next one from them.

Northlake Auto South- Hammond, LA This whole experience was…read morevery frustrating and disappointing. I felt pressured and bamboozled through most of the process. I would've left less stars, but Sammy and his team did try to "Make it right" by apologizingand offering to deliver the vehicle to my work or home, however, at some point there's just no way to salvage a completely sour experience. Advice: DO NOT buy a vehicle that is not ready to drive off the lot with you! That was my BIGGEST mistake! But I was assured that there was minimal issues with the vehicle and that it would be ready in about a week. Once I signed the paperwork, communication was minimal. I had to continue to call in every day or two for updates. Each time, I was told the mechanic was working on it all day and had found another issue with it that would be fixed in a day or two. Each time, I was told I'd get a phone call the next day that usually didn't come. At first it was just a rim and a tire, no mechanical issues. That was fixed and then it was a hose and an oil leak. When those were fixed it was topping off the fluids and a test drive, and I could pick it up. Once that was done and I was at the dealership with a friend to drive my other vehicle, it was a leak in the water pump. Although I THOROUGHLY appreciate them not allowing a damaged vehicle to knowingly drive off the lot, this vehicle should've never been allowed to be sold without a proper inspection. I was told that they "lost a mechanic" that week. So, I don't know if maybe that mechanic had dropped the ball in the original inspection. But, I just feel a little taken advantage of, because I was trusting enough to sign papers on a vehicle I hadn't test driven, cause I was ASSURED the only issue was the rim and tire. I even asked what the protocol was for having my own mechanic do an inspection and was told "oh no, don't worry about that, we'll take good care of you, you won't need to have it inspected". Here we are, 9 days later, no vehicle, no update phone call by the afternoon. Buuuut...the thank you card did come in the mail several days ago, so that's fun, right?!

They refuse to negotiate on pricing, and it's clear they care more about making a dollar than taking care of the customer. The price listed on their website is misleading -- it only applies if you finance through them, and if you choose your own bank, they jack the price up. When I asked if that was even legal, the salesperson shrugged and said, "It would just be a petty lawsuit anyway." We were at the dealership for over six hours, trying to work a deal that clearly wasn't in our favor. I repeatedly asked to speak to the finance guy in the back, and he never came to talk to us. Eventually, I secured my own financing and brought them the check -- even then, we had to wait another hour and a half just to finalize everything. Before leaving, I noticed the tires were dangerously worn and asked if they could at least replace them. I was told "no, it is what it is" because the car was being sold as-is. Sure enough, shortly after leaving, we had a blowout on the interstate. We were stranded on the side of the road for four hours waiting on a tow truck. I tried calling Northlake Auto -- no answer. I called the finance guy's personal number -- no answer, voicemail. I even sent a photo and text message to let him know what happened and how poorly we were treated. No response. This place is the definition of bad service, bad attitude, and bad business. It's a "take it or leave it" kind of operation, and once the deal is done, you're on your own. I would absolutely not recommend doing business with them.
