Everyone here was super helpful and genuinely tried their best to get me in the car I wanted. Starting with Elijah (sales) who was courteous and informative made us feel comfortable, then Jay helped us haggle with insurance to get a killer deal, and of course Ray who made sure it all worked out when some complications came up. Overall amazing staff and set up, definitely will be a returning customer and will refer people here. -jon, Ellen, Geoff read more

beware they scam you and sell a vehicle with damaged battery and made us take it to the mechanic shop 3 consecutive days just to be told that the dealer is not approving the fix now we are stuck with $5,000 repairs do not purchase from them read more

LISTING / PRICING INFO PLEASE READ. Extremely misleading listing and scammy pricing. "Hillside Auto Mall Special" pricing is NOT what the car is actually listed as, even if that's what's on Carfax. It is what your FINANCED price will be after deposit. And that's IF you bring a printed website of the listing. So in reality, the financed amount could very much be more than that if you don't bring that printed sheet of paper (What age is this?). Add the deposit and "special" price, and you'll get the retail amount above. And then it's also above average market price--crazy! I'd give 0 stars for business strategy, but the dealers are at least personable. Hope people don't get confused as I did :) read more

Such a great dealership!! Eric and Eli were such great help and super friendly. Drove right into Hillside to be greeted by the welcoming staff that had everything done within 20-30 min. Not only did they give a great deal, they also helped get the new vehicle inspected and helped get insurance added to my policy. Will definitely come back again in the future. read more

I wish I could give 0 stars. Just came all the way here to a car that was DISGUSTING. SMELLED of cigarettes and was dirty. I was beside myself. The salesman had the nerve to ask if I wanted to still test drive it. Like what? I'm pissed. I asked the salesman if this was just brought in because of the way it looked. He said it came in about 2 weeks ago. The carfax said it arrived in March. It is now July. Scammer alert. Fuck this place. Do not go. read more

When a dealer begins his speech with "this isn't a bait and switch but...." Guess what? It's a bait and switch. We made an appointment to see a specific car all the way out in Jamaica (1 hour drive for us). They confirmed the car was available for our appointment the following day and even called us in the morning to make sure we were still coming. When we arrived we discovered that the car had been sold weeks prior as evidenced by the CARFAX. It was clear that they never had any intention of selling us THAT car but wanted to get us into the office to try to make another sale. Classic slimed used car dealer stuff. We found some real gems among other used car dealers but these fraudsters are out there in abundance . Beware and steer clear! read more

be aware and stay away from this place. scammer with the listing prices, they add an extra hidden $6000 on the top the listing price plus other fees. wasted almost 6 hours driving to that place in the rain plus gas money and Toll. read more

Spoke with Carlos (Cuban guy) and asked about ALL THE FEES for the car before I even went in. He said the only additional fees where the normal safe tax, registration and a $600 dealership fee. Great! Car was listed for 10k. Made an appointment and still had to wait over 90 mins with my small child to test drive the car. Come back and am told that the noises the car makes are normal bc it's a small car and the tire pressure light is because of the climate. Then get quoted over 20k for the car . Was told bc I'm not financing with them I had to pay more. No where on their site does it say that. SCAMMERS! The lot of them! Cars aren't inspected before selling so if you do fall for it and purchase a car from here, at least go get it inspected. Better yet, go give someone that actually is going to be honest with you your money. That is not this dealership. read more

Great costumer service and everyone was really helpful. I'll definitely be back for future business.

If you are thinking to buy a car, don't ever go to this place. Those people are horrible and their deals most probably deceivable. They put cars on sale with a fake price and when you visit them you will realize that the advertisement is fake and there is no car with that price. And then, they start to promote what garbage they have in inventory with different prices. That exactly what happened to me today. And after I started complaining they went to look around for the same car model at another dealers. Completely unprofessional idiots and going there is absolutely waste of money and time. read more

In search of a Quality Pre-owned vehicle, I stumbled upon a car I was interested in on the Truecar.com site my Credit Union advised I begin my search through. A Internet Specialist contacted me to set up an appointment. I set an appointment and was contacted atleast 5 TIMES while traveling to the lot. I had repeated missed calls. When I arrived the lot was bumper to bumper lined with cars. The cars were so close together it made it almost impossible to get into each without scratching the paint job on the vehicle parked next to it. Typical of NYC dealers...? I was shown cars with mediocre interior, not much of a variety of cars in pristine condition. The young man.. sales-man "J" (no last name provided) showed me a few vehicles marked WAY above the MSRP I had been researching on True Car. As I got into the 2nd vehicle I viewed, my father and I asked J if we could take the vehicle for a test drive? J replied "Are you going to buy it?" "We have to decide on a price you're comfortable with before you test drive" ::Fabolous begins to play::: WHERE THEY DO THAT AT??????!!!!!! My father immediately turned into a thug and the Putnam Ave came out of him. "That is BS!!!" J, Before ANYONE decides if they will purchase a vehicle, they test drive it! I have owned 3 cars and none of what was mentioned to me today was a fact. At that point, J was handed his car key and we walked off the lot and went right next door to Gateway, where I test drove upon request. Filled up the tank, tested for potholes, sat in traffic, parked, made a U-Turn, and DID NOT PURCHASE that vehicle!!! If that's how you do business and treat potential customers, you will continue to lose customers to Gateway located just next door. read more

Hillside Auto Mall - This is my mirage i love it - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Jamaica, New York

This dealership has great professional staff. Marcellus was very patient with questions and has a lot of knowledge about vehicles. Eric made sure to fix one front mirror and the rear break pads on time before I got the car. He also took time to explain the dealership policy agreement document to my proper understanding before the purchase. And top of it got me a moderate auto insurance after several attempt to get an affordable one without compromising quality. And oh Jose and beautiful Hillary were so refreshing to keep conversations going. I believe I am going to enjoy my "new 2013 BMW 5 series" ride. I will tell everyone, Hillside Auto Mall is a GO TO dealership if you looking to buy a good used car. Excellent Team with excellent customer service. read more

Possibly the worst dealership in all of NYC. It all started when I went in with an online quote. They said it was approved but added a substantial fee of $3,000. Then they snuck in the warranty package without informing me or describing the me what the warranty was. After I purchased the car, lights malfunctioned within three weeks and battery had to be replaced as well. Took the car in for maintenance Under warranty. I was informed it was a simple light fix and would be done next day.....or so they said. For five days straight I was instructed to call back to check if the car was done and was given the run around. On the sixth day they told me the car woild be done and to come by 4pm. Went in around 5pm and of course, the car wasn't done. Cassandra who took in my car would not speak to my brother and was hiding in the back room. She sent four members out denying to meet and stated she was busy and that we should check again Tuesday. Today on Tuesday once again, no where about a of my car and once again given the run around. This company is absolutely a sham of a business and provides no after service. Please save yourself the trouble and do not go to these employees with no ethics. Everyone is a professional liar with no guilty consciousness. All reviews on Google are either fake or the sales people force you to rate five stars during your purchase. LEARN FROM MY EXPERIENCE AND AVOID AT ALL COSTS! UPDATE 07/27/18 After locating my car the head of service for the company advised me that the car was good to go. I called the repair center and they stated they never worked on the car.....and would return to me the next day with a decision. One week passed by and no call. I called today for an update and the mechanic stated the owner of Hillside Auto Mall has refused to repair the headlight on my car because it broke from impact, which happened prior to me purchasing the car as it was involved in a collision before. Once again, avoid this place. An absolute disaster of customer service and communication. I honestly don't know how they are in business. read more

I confess that is was totally my mistake for providing them with my information for them to call me, which for some inert reason they cannot stop calling me! And I had to get legal on them, to refrain on doing so. After doing some research "which I highly recommend you do" I took a glance of most of their reviews here and on other sites as well and after doing so..there is NO WAY in HOT HELL I will be suckered into such place. Basically is a BUY at your own risk type of car dealership. Definitely a switch & Bait type of establishment. You figure they will catch a few thirsty folks out there, they depend on those that don't read to get GOT! Not sure how Capital One is even allowing them to be their go to finance company. I guess that's why I don't bank with them also. For very 5 star review there's 15 (1) star review, if you think I'm exaggerating please see for yourself and scroll down and take a good look for yourself. The Numbers don't lie..YOU HAVE BEEN FULLY WARNED.! Read the GENERIC copy and paste apology AL has responded too. read more

I travelled almost 3 hours, excited to be buying a car only to be disappointed that even with what COVID has taught us about life, these people were not truthful. The Hillside Auto Mall Special LISTING PRICE IS ALL FAKE. That's to make you go there. How you gonna say a saving of a certain amount only to tell us something else. A 17K listed price will end up close to 30K. The true value they are selling is what the retail price is (even if you finance with them). They have nice cars and i can sense some of the people working feeling bad for people falling for the fake online prices. Beware, Hillside Auto Mall Special is not the price! read more

I was interested in a car that was listed for $22,887 on the companies website as well as Autotrader. I confirmed the car's availability along with wanting to put a deposit down until I could actually see the car. Magically the car suddenly became unavailable but then the next day the car was priced $7,000 more for a whopping $29,887. Other reviews confirm that prices seem to change when dealing with this dealership! Financing managers change prices and indicate the pricing does not include 10% down, etc. do not waste your time on dealing with this dealership! Go somewhere else and find a reputable dealer that does not change their prices. Ever their own website says you have to print and bring in the advertised price. Do not waste your time! read more

Horrible customer service. Definitely not a reliable place to buy a car. 0/10 recommendations

Awful selection, unprofessional dealers and over priced cars. I traveled an hour and the dealer I was supposed to meet wasn't there. The dealer who spoke to me knew little about cars and wanted accommodating or personable. I do not recommend this dealer. read more

SCAM!! SCAM!! SCAM!!! They told me I would be a co-signer but then pushed the main buyers paperwork in front of me and rushed me to sign without reading. They fooled me into being the main buyer of the car because I had the higher credit score. I ended up getting a shitty loan with high interest and my score is ruined. They were being nice to me and telling me a bunch of lies to make me think their customer service is good then they sat me in front of a computer and made me fill out reviews. The car they sold me barely lasted a couple months. They dont give a damn about you. Dont believe the five star reviews here. They are literally SCAMMERS. read more

My husband was baited and switched regarding a car advertised online. Despite my warnings based on negative reviews on multiple sites, he decided to give them a chance. Turns out they screwed him out of 2.5 hours of his life. Main message: DON'T trust their listings. Here's his story below: This place is a complete and total bait and switch scam! I went against the warnings of others and the advice of my wise wife and decided to inquire about a 2014 Audi A4 listed in their inventory. I was told that someone had placed a deposit on it and it was no longer get available. Then, low and behold, 2 hours later get a call that the buyer changed their mind and it was available for purchase. That should have been warning enough right there. I talked to the girl on the phone, Kiera, for about 10 minutes about the car and made her promise it would be there when I arrived (having read the previous reviews about bait and switch) to which she promised it would be. I let her know I would be there in one hour because that's how long my train ride there was, and she even said if anything came up she would call me so I wouldn't waste my time. So, I travelled for 75 minutes to Queens and find a salesman there and tell him the car I had come to see, and, low and behold, wouldn't you know..."Oh, that car just sold today. Let me tell you about other cars we have that are similar." He then went on to explain there was a better version of the same car they have, but wouldn't you know, that car wasn't available at the time I was there, it had just been "taken home by the manager" (which also seems weird alone). But, if I was only willing to spend another 2.5 hours more of commuting on Saturday to deal with them, then I would get to see it. Needless to say, being made to waste my time once was one too many times. I implore you, DO NOT make the same mistake I made. Stay away! read more

The price listed was one thing. Then $2000 dealer fees + another $2000 for cleaning and inspection. $4000 later the contract they informed me was the price with everything added but didn't inform me that the thousands i put down weren't applied. So essentially the pocketed my down payment read more

Very Unprofessional if you don't believe it check out previous reviews, 80% of cars are Lemons they'll definitely tell you about warranty its BS They will take your money. read more

I don't know why people leave bad reviews! The place is perfect and all the charges they charge is only tax nothing more people don't want to pay the tax of the car and they call is extra charges! People are really helpful and nice in here they explain everything really well. You need to at least only visit so you can judge don't judge from people experience. You can have your own experience. I went and it was the best car purchases I have ever done. read more

I came here simply because they are one of Capital One Auto Finance Authorized Dealers. I went there armed with a blank check, I did not use it because they matched the APR. Unfortunately, it did not stop there. They have misleading ads that show average prices from kbb, and when you get there they will squeeze everything from you. They'll throw in that bs about 3000 down payment IS NOT included in the price, etc. (at that time it was 3k placed ever on the oh so tiny text on the ad), they will not gas up the vehicles, and don't even think about trading-in your car..DO NOT! Be warned also that there are several fake reviews on google, which generally have the same content and/or words switched around, lol. Do yourself a favor go somewhere else, and you will thank me later. Nowadays, there are several dealers that have salaried salespeople they are the ones you should look for since they concentrate more on sales volume rather than profit. read more

After getting my breaks changed in the beginning of August because I have been having trouble with a car they sold me since February I noticed I had a slow leak in my back right tire. I looked for my key to unlock my wheels so I could take off the old tire I could not find it. (Hillside is the last place to have access to the wheel lock key) I contacted hillside auto mall and explained the situation Daniel gave me the numbers to the repair shops that they use and told me to call myself. Galaxy told me that they don't have any wheel keys and the other flat out told me that the never had my car there without getting any info about the car from me. I called Daniel back and he said he would call himself. After waiting over 2 hours And no phone call I called Daniel back. He said both repair shops said they don't have the key. He tells me I can go to Chevy to have them break the locks and have them replace them and get a new wheel lock key. I politely told him I gave my car to you guys to fix and you didn't not return my wheel lock key why do I have to pay Chevy. I already paid over $300 to Chevy to have them rebalance my car in July after Hillside auto mall was unable to tell me why my car was rattling less then a month after purchase. I gave them the chance to fix all the other problems which they did but they lost my key in the process. I then spoke to Daniels boss Ali I think and he told me to bring the car in they would take care of the wheel locks and the key. Great we agreed I would come in Saturday morning before 11 but I had an emergency and had to cancel. I called at 10:16 am and spoke to a woman not sure who i exxplained everything and asked could I come in on Sunday. She put me on hold came back and said yes come Sunday before 2pm. Now today is Sunday the 20th I show up with my car and my husband to take me back home until my car is ready. There are only 2 associates working Jay and another gentleman. He never told me his name. I explained why I was there and he tells me I came for nothing sorry but none of the repair shops are open can you come Tomorrow. Are you serious this dealership has given me the run around and misinformation two many times. This is the WORST dealership in the history of used cars that I have ever been too. On top of that I have tried to cancel my warranty since June and they still have not done it. Do not buy a car from these people. They sell you a car quickly then you end up with a lifetime worth of problems. They don't care that I had to leave my kids with a babysitter for a few hours so I could drive out to them from Brooklyn only to be told that I have to come back. My time not my gas is free. I repeat go anywhere else but here read more

The salesman was a liar stating that the car had a warranty and it turn out that it had none. Please stay away from this deceitful dealership. Good read more

Wow I wish I would of read the reviews before buying a car here. They sold me a car that was giving me problems within six months of buying it when I asked several times about the warranty the manager promised me. I never got a call back. I also moved out of state and was calling about getting a copy of the bill of sale and they said they would give it to me several times and never did. I doubt they even kept copies of the paperwork. The manager tried to get with me while I was there so unprofessional and the receptionist sounds so ghetto and unprofessional when I call. I thought I was getting a good deal until I had to deal with them after the sale. This place is ghetto and unprofessional. Stay Away! read more

Honestly I was very skeptical about coming here until I actually came in and inquired about purchasing a new car. With the help of Vanesha, Ray, and Cassandra I was able to walk out of this lot with my first car. I have no experience with cars especially when it comes to purchasing and insurance information and they were all very professional in guiding me through the process and walking me through it step by step. I had a million questions and everyone of them were answered. Within a week I was approved and left with my very first car. I'm very satisfied with my purchase and the services I received here and I'll definitely recommend anyone to come here. read more

I contacted Hillside auto in July for a specific Jeep Grand Cherokee they had on the lot.After speaking with one of the reps I drove from Staten Island to Queens to test drive and purchase the vehicle. When I arrived Mel was friendly and helpful. We took a test drive which was great then went back to the office to fill out the credit application to apply for the vehicle. As I'm sitting at the desk I get multiple notifications on my phone that my credit was pulled which is fine in the process of getting the vehicle. Now at this time Mel comes back and tells me I'm very sorry but the vehicle being purchased was just sold to the couple sitting next time. "Wait, excuse me!!!!" I did not just drive over an hour with an appointment, test drive the vehicle, have my credit run, all just to be told the vehicle was sold to a couple sitting next to me!!!!. They then have me speak to the finance manager who swears up and down that they didn't run my credit and all this nonsense which is a lie I got the notifications and now I just got the credit inquiry paperwork in the mail. If the vehicle was sold why are you running my credit when that's the only vehicle I was there for!!! STAY AWAY FROM THESE CON ARTISTS!!!!!!! THEY ONLY WANT TO OUT YOU INTO A VEHICLE THAT FITS THEIR AGENDA AND WILL LIE TO YOUR FACE TO MAKE SOME MONEY! read more

After seeing this add on Carfax https://www.carfax.com/vehicle/KNAFK4A63G5572592 I made an appointment to test drive the car. After I decided to buy the car (Carfax price says $8,999) they said the real price was $11,499 because the adds disclaimer was that you needed to put $2500 down.

I purchased a vehicle from Hillside Auto Mall at 15001 Hillside Ave in Jan 2020. I was only given 1 key and was told they'd give me a 2nd key at no charge. Coronavirus came and I was unable to go get the key. They programmed that key for another vehicle, which is understandable. What I don't feel is acceptable is first, why would you only give 1 key, then promise a 2nd one at no cost but give it to another customer? And second, now they're saying they can't give me a free key but can give me a discounted price. That's ridiculous! I should have been given 2 keys from the start. DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY BUSINESS! That's very unprofessional. read more

This place is a total scam. I was told the car I was purchasing was $10,000 and with a 2k down payment my auto loan would have been 8k. Cassandra seemed very helpful.
