    Completely unsatisfactory!!!
    Tom L.

    STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!! Hope you guys listen. They sold me a truck two months ago and I purchased it cash. They did not work with me at all on the price!! But that's ok. Here is where it really gets sketchy! The the truck had a bad engine!! YES YOU READ IT CORRECTLY. THE ENGINE WAS DAMAGED. I called them back to discuss it and they told me to pound sand. Their excuse was I should have purchased their 1000$ warranty!!! What a pile of shit!! They are doing zero Effort to really inspect the vehicles before selling them. These people are purchasing cars from auctions and selling them Immediately after! Stay away from this dealership. DON'T BE FOOLED!!! It cost me 5,000$ to fix the engine. Should have purchased a new truck!!!!

    Transmission inspection

    I purchased a Toyota Rav4 from Johnny's Motors on 1/5/2026. I was told the vehicle was in good condition and they did not disclose any transmission issues. Not even 30 days later the check engine light came on. I took it to two transmission specialists and they said it needs to be replaced/rebuilt. The estimate is $5500 and I paid $7500 for the car. They also said there are codes for transmission issues stored that were previously deleted, so the dealership may have been aware. I called and emailed Johnny's Motors to see if there is anything they cann do to make it right. They said there is nothing they can do. I do not recommend purchasing any vehicles from this business.

    Pre Purchase Inspection

    Overall experience wasn't bad, was working with their sales guy Matthew very nice and helpful. Went to look at their 2018 Audi A6 and allowed me to take it for a test drive. Immediately knew there were some things off with how it drove. Johnny's Motors reported everything is great no issues with the vehicle. I took it in for a PPI which thankfully saved me a lot of money. The mechanic reported that they cleared the check engine light faults and would have turned back on the way home if purchased. The independent mechanic identified a shock was bad and leaking, an electrical issue fault with two of windows not properly working, and the intake manifold was not working. At minimum $700 in labor just to see the issue with worst case scenario being a total replacement. They downplayed it and wouldn't even come down on the price. I walked and saved a lot of money. Highly recommend a PPI from an independent shop these people are nice, but they are not trustworthy and will clear the check engine lights hoping you won't notice. This is a very shady business practice and it reflects why they are not a 4-5 star business. For a small price of $140 inspection I saved $1000s from purchasing a defective vehicle from this untrustworthy dealership. If it's been sitting on their lot for at least 30 days, there is probably a good reason it's not gone. Could have worked a deal out with me, to resolve the mechanical issues and made a sale for their quota but they chose not to and preferred to rip the next customer off and hoping they don't get a PPI.

    I love the kindness in the eyes of the customer service representatives. I would definitely recommend coming down to 89 10 Juniper Avenue, if not for the cars for the good vibes.

    Couldn't love my purchase more!! Jose helped me out. Great customer service, quick and easy process. No hassle and even helped me out on my trade-in! Been to other dealerships and wasn't satisfied with their prices or customer service. JOHNNYS MOTORSis the place to buy your next ride

    Broken subframe from impact

    These guys are yet another scumbag dealership. They lie about their cars, hide that there are problems and then when pointed out that there are tons of problems they pretend that it being broken is considered standard wear. Drove 2 hours to go out there to look at a car and they lied and hid that they're was serious damage from what looks like it backed into a pole, the sun roof was broken, dings all over the car, the paint was peeling, the rear trunk sensor was broken, damage to the subframe from an impact, interior parts were torn up and then these scumbags try adding a ton of fake bullshit fees and say they won't come down a dime despite the car being broken and needing repairs. Don't waste your time. These guys are not honest and are looking at pulling a fast one on customers. STAY FAR AWAY.

    This place sold my daughter a car that was not ready for sale they disconnected the battery to clear the codes from the cart so my wife and I drove it home and as soon as we got on the road from our house the cat threw a code. After some investigation the ECU was disconnected and reset and the dealer had no issues selling a broken car! After fighting with them they gave my daughter her money back because they sold her a lemon. Steer clear of this place they lie and act like they don't know their cars are junk you would be better off buying from anywhere else this place is just not good to deal with and you won't get any answers from anyone unless it's a problem and I feel all of they're inventory is like this! Steer clear unless you want to be taken advantage of!

    Bought a car here recently, only let you test drive on the streets so you cant get on the freeway…read moreto see if the car has any real issues, anyways bought the car, get on the freeway and car does nothing but shake all the way home, get the car to my house and take the wheels off and nothing but rust underneath and everything on the suspension is seized, ended up paying 4k to have the whole front end replaced, everysingle peice of it, i take partial blame for not crawling underneth to look at the underside and even trusting one of these hole in the wall dealerships, but i cant bellieve they sell vehicles in this condition and wont even budge on the price, im just happy a family that is barely getting by didnt buy this car cause they would have been screwed like the other people on these reviews, i would not buy a vehicle here unless you have a mechanic look at it first!!

Within the first 3 months the issues began even with proper maintenance. Finally recently the fuel pump to the vehicle is now needing replacing which costs thousands of dollars. I called the dealership to see if there was anything they could do since they had sold us a failing truck and they said no, not even trying to help us what so ever. Now we are stuck with a 30k loan and a non operating vehicle. All they care about is getting a sale. They don't care weather or not the vehicle works just working enough to sell it. DO NOT GO HERE.

    At first I gave them a good review, but after having the car for less then a week it had nothing…read morebut problems. My 18 year old had to keep fixing all kinds of things on it were still waiting on shocks and yes I understand they're on back order but it's been 4 months. They have a few people that work their and I don't remember the guys name, he was so nice and said we could take the car and they'd fix all the lights that were coming on and check why she had to connect the battery and disconnect everyone she comes and goes. The car wasn't drivable for 2 months. We fixed a few things and went down there to the car place. The guy I had talked to on the phone (can't remember his name) was so nice and kind said he'd make sure everything is taken care of. We get down there and the rude guy said we're not doing any kind of work on this car til you pay the 250 that's owed. Ok that being said , she put over 2000 down and she has paid over 3000 to fix it here and there. I told him to wait til Jan 20 he said no I'm not waiting it's going to collections. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone we got a bad car and the rude guy told me to tell the financial company that the car was perfect running ( it was for a min) so they'd finance it. The car is beautiful but it wouldn't pass smog if it needed to.
