Terrible customer service......
Hugh J.

Absolutely a joke of a dealership with zero communication and/or customer service skills. I drove over 200 miles from Las Vegas to get a CX-50 with a $30,000 check in my hand made out to the dealership, only to get told they sold the vehicle I wanted the day before. They feel they did nothing wrong. They wouldn't negotiate at all. They didn't care. They won't even admit fault and that's unacceptable. Find another dealership because they're utterly incompetent here. Valone, you Sir have failed......

We purchased a used car from this place and 13 days later the catalytic converter went out. They told us many stories. Initially I was told they would cover the cost then my advisor went on vacation and I was called and told they wouldn't cover the repair. After many conversations with multiple people I finally got to Oscar he too refused to cover the cost of the repair and told me it was up to their discretion to purchase the vehicle back and they weren't going to buy it back from me. He got on the phone obviously upset that I wasn't happy about them selling me a car that needed 5k in repairs. He said maam you bought a used car with 90 thousand miles he repeated it several times. He made it seem as if it was my fault that they are selling faulty vehicles. He also said there was another instance where someone purchased a car and the engine blew up on the way home. He bought that car back but refused mine. He was telling me how great his employees did and when I tried to speak he said wait a minute and listen. He was condescending, rude, and not helpful at all. My initial quote for repairs was $4669 ish they called me and said they had a deal it would come out to $4418 and that the initial quote didn't have taxes. If you are considering purchasing a used car here DONT!!!!! To me they are scam artists that pick and choose who they want to help. Selling cars that need repairs in 13 days is diabolical. The lack of compassion from Oscar is horrible. He told me that he is running a business and that was his stance. They were very accommodating when I was purchasing the vehicle then they turned into business people and refused to help. I have since found out they are not BBB accredited. Hope this helps I would not purchase a car here . The warranty they give is 1000k miles or 3 months powertrain only. If your car breaks in the first month it's not covered. Typically people drive more than 1000 miles a month so the warranty is useless just another sales gimmick. Once you peel back the layers they do a lot of shady stuff. You just have to pay closer attention Any other company I purchased a car for and if issues arose in 30 days they covered them from Mossy Nissan to Volvo. I guess Mazda dealers just don't care unless you purchase a new Mazda from them. Update 7/26/25 my son took the vehicle to a repair shop for unrelated issues and they said the oil drip pan is fully saturated with oil so it's something that had to be an ongoing problem and should've been detected by the dealership and he advised us to take the car back to the dealership and have them repair it. I will update after the dealership visit and let you guys know how they choose to handle this so far they have failed us. I wouldn't buy a tonka truck from these guys

Valone was my dealer. He was very approachable and attentive. He was really patience with me & made sure to follow up here and there. I couldn't be any happier with the purchase!

Mazda 3 - love it!

I bought my Mazda 3 here and the service was amazing from start to finish. Crystal was low pressure and knowledgeable and I was in and out on a weeknight after work. They gave me a fair price for my trade and they even beat my credit union rate. I have also brought my car in for regular service and the level of customer service is top notch. Highly recommend this dealership and their service department.

Awesome buying experience, painless purchase, upfront pricing, great sales approach. Noel and the team are spot on. Thanks guys 2021 Mazda6 Signature

The day I went to first look at it
Mckayla K.

This is such an amazing dealership. I was looking at buying my first car and was just looking at a car to get a picture and to make sure it was the exact car I wanted to get a couple months down the line, I pulled to the dealership and Danny immediately came outside and made me and my family feel welcome. He helped me from the second we got in the lot to the second the pull d the car off the lot months later. He never pushed me, he knew this car was my dream and my motivation so he took a picture of me in it and told me to look at it everyday, I did and a couple weeks later I texted Danny and said I wanted to next one off the lot. I came in thinking I was going to buy the car but Oscar the general manager asked me first if he was allowed to talk to me instead of just immediately talking to me which made me feel comfortable as I'm 19 and went to the dealership the day of alone so I was anxious but Oscar sat me down and talked to me and helped me realize that their was better options and he helped me with Mazdas first time buyer program and got me a insane deal. I'm so grateful for Danny and Oscar and everything they helped me with!

Price Reduction Email I received

Deceptive Sales Practices Unveiled: Despite boasting of transparent pricing, this dealership resorts to misleading tactics, tarnishing its reputation. They falsely advertise no games or gimmicks in pricing, yet employ inflated MSRP figures to showcase seemingly substantial discounts. Disappointingly, they lured me in with an enticing price only to backtrack on their offer. You can read below about my interaction with Mazda of Temecula if you are interested. Ultimately, I am filing a complaint with the DMV, the licensing authority overseeing the dealership's operations. For those who share similar grievances, here is the link to the INV 172A, Record of Complaint Form for recourse. https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/uploads/2021/11/INV172A_RecordOfComplaint.pdf My interaction with Mazda of Temecula began with optimism upon discovering a car via Carfax. However, after initial discussions, I found the proposed cost of $26,991 unsuitable. Shortly after declining, I received an email notifying me of a price reduction, accompanied by an iPacket containing details of the car now priced at $20,995. Intrigued yet cautious, I verified the new price with the sales representative, who confirmed its validity. Confident, I requested paperwork for purchase, anticipating collection later in the week. However, upon receiving the contract, the price reflected was $24,995, not the agreed-upon $20,995. To my dismay, I was informed that the $20,995 price was contingent on a $4,000 Pre-Owned EV Rebate, conveniently omitted until the contract stage. Despite their assertion that this information was disclosed in the iPacket's disclaimer, scrutiny revealed no such mention. Additionally, the provided a disclaimer referencing a different vehicle altogether, highlighting further deception. Throughout the process, pertinent details such as the rebate disclaimer were deliberately withheld, despite ample opportunities for disclosure. In addition, they buried the $4k into my finance contract as a manufacturer's rebate that I would have had to pay out of pocket like a down payment and would never have be reimbursed. They knew I would not have qualified for the rebate and did not disclose at any time. Buyer's stay educated and beware. Consequently, I endured wasted time, subjected my credit score to unnecessary scrutiny (lost 4 points), and left empty-handed.

To Management and Corporate:…read more As a loyal, 3-time customer, I was subjected to unbelievable disrespect, predatory tactics, and the unlawful seizure of my vehicle. Ten days after buying a used Nissan, they demanded it back because they failed to secure financing due to their own massive markup ($9k selling price on a $3k book value). When I previously tried to return it due to buyer's remorse, management refused, claiming "no buyer's remorse." Yet when *they* failed to hold up their end of the deal, they demanded the car back immediately. When my son and I arrived on 7/23/26, we were shuffled between Sales and Finance 3-4 times before anyone spoke to us. Salesman Edi tried aggressively to sell us another car. When that failed, he took my keys under the deliberate lie that he needed to "check the mileage" -and I watched him drive my car away before I had even spoken with anyone. We were dumped in Finance Manager Albert's office, who sat in silence on his phone for five minutes before admitting he was just a "middleman" and tried to coerce me into signing away my rights. When I refused, he claimed my car was "up at the top" and wasn't coming down, calling key confiscation "standard procedure." Albert eventually returned, saying Manager Jesus approved reimbursement for our costs and told us to go back to Sales. Walking back, we confronted Edi standing outside to ask who ordered him to lie and steal my keys-he refused to answer. We finally met with Jesus, who admitted they unwind deals "all the time" due to failed financing on their end. When confronted about taking my keys without signed paperwork, Jesus absurdly claimed the car was "yes and no" legally mine. They illegally detained my property without any signed unwind papers and forced me to leave empty-handed with only a "check request" - not guaranteed funds. Avoid this dealership at all costs unless you want to deal with predatory pricing, total lack of transparency, manipulation tactics, and extreme disrespect.

I made an appt and receive a call as they ask me to change my appt from 930 to 730.. i had to shuffle things around to make sure I can accommodate the new time In the email for the service appt they have an email for the service department. I email them with my appt confirmation for my corvette telling them I can accommodate the 730 appt time. Also on the phone call I ask for pricing so I am aware what the out the door cost is. I get a round about estimate not a breakdown. (Website interaction) I don't have the ability to use a phone at work due to security, so I used the website chat / messaging to clearly ask for the price breakdown of the services for my corvette. (As I did not find pricing on their website) these are typical services that you would get for your car. I enter my information CLEARLY asking for pricing of services. I get bombarded by salesmen trying to sell me a car. This is why I don't like entering my phone number as now I am on paradises list to call. I show up at the dealership at 7 to drop off my car and my appt is for 930 and I am told to wait 10 minutes for an advisor while I watch 7 cars get taken care of. While I am waiting I call the Lake Elsinore dealership and schedule service for next month as its tool late to ask for it that same day. As a consumer all I wanted was an appt, the time that I was asked to try to accommodate, and pricing before I get there. I work 6-6 and am in a secure area so email is preferred communication. I know this is a military town so not everyone has the use of cell phones at their job. I am one of them. I will be buying a car in 2027, I think this dealer or even brand is off my list.

The email included a phone video made by the tech showing what looked like black oil behind the engine.

So, was I supposed to just pay the four grand for nothing or were they going to try and get me to trade in on a new vehicle? We will never know because my independent garage said "no leaks" and my garage floor hasn't got a single drop of oil, and I will never go back to this dealership for anything, not even parts.

My husband wanted a specific model in a specific color ("Ether," I think?), so it had to be custom ordered from Japan and shipped to California. He had been working with John Cunningham, who gave him frequent updates about the status of the car from its time in the factory all the way to its delivery to the dealership. Already, it felt like John was putting in a lot of work for us. When it came time to the actual purchase, John was extremely professional and kind, but was also upfront with everything. Then, the transition from sales to finance was extremely smooth with very little wait time. Despite having a lot on his plate, Christiano Valencia from finance was extremely accommodating and also very upfront - he did not try to saddle us with unnecessary add-ons or anything like that. He was authentic and honest, AND he gave us very helpful advice on things to get and what to avoid should we ever have to buy another new car in the future. All in all, we left the dealership with our brand new car and my husband is such a happy camper. Despite us having to drive 100+ miles to this particular dealership, I really felt it was worth it based on our experience. Both John and Christiano are professionals of the highest caliber and I am so grateful to have been able to work with them. 10/10 would recommend.

He even took me to Starbucks while I waited, which was such a thoughtful gesture and honestly says so much about the level of care here. Jonathan and Christiano were also incredibly helpful, patient, and kind anytime I needed something clarified. At no point did I feel pressured, dismissed, or misled. Everything was transparent and professional. As someone traveling from farther away and coming from a previous bad dealership experience, I can confidently say Temecula Valley Lexus is the epitome of service. They made buying my Kia Stinger GT1 feel exciting instead of stressful, and I'm beyond grateful for how well I was treated. Thank you guys so much! I LOVE my Stinger!

The honesty and integrity of the sales associates from this Temecula location was poor and unprofessional. I worked directly with Robert and Marty. After a few days of negotiation, a total price was agreed upon and I arrived to make my purchase. The total price we agreed upon included "ALL" taxes and fee's. During the paperwork process, I was informed that the actual amount was higher by about $85.00. This was clearly different then what we had agreed. However, At the time I didn't want to make a big deal about this, so I just paid the difference. But, when I was given the "Key" for the car from the saleman Robert, I discovered that there was only one key FOB for the car. I immediately asked why there was only 1 key FOB and was told that they only had the one key. I thought it was odd that I was never informed of this important detail. I left with my car and one key and once I was home I emailed Robert and asked about getting a 2nd key, and wanted them to provide me with a 2nd key at their cost. He stated initially that DCH Chrysler would get a 2nd key FOB made for me at their cost. I awaited details on what was needed from me. Then, a couple days later, I received an email from Robert stating that the cost for the 2nd key would in fact be my responsibility. A cost of $274.53. I feel this is unacceptable. I emailed back to both Robert and Marty, asking them to honor their agreement. Since then there has been no response from either salesmen. It appeared to me that because I had already purchased the car, there was no urgency on their part to satisfy the customer. They had their transaction and could simply move on. Not only is this bad business, but also lacks honesty and integrity on behalf of the salesmen from this establishment. Customer beware, there are many other establishments to choose from in Temecula, and certainly much better customer service.
