    $2,400 in repairs in the first day of ownership.
    Cameron S.

    AVOID AT ALL COSTS! I purchased a Porsche 911 that was delivered inoperable on public roads, and immediately in the shop for $2,394.32 in repair bills on the very first test drive. See attached photo. LW has refused to offer any assistance, compensation, or remedies whatsoever. They referred me to a local mechanic who examined the car and then proceeded to deliver me a car with engine issues that made it impossible to operate safely. The car failed in multiple ways including a broken window upon first operation and an engine failure less than 6 miles in to the very first drive. Their response says they "reduced the sales price of the vehicle by thousands" which is objectively false. Their website falsely advertises free shipping if you pay full price for the car. I told them I was located in Los Angeles and was told "that's too far and requires an extra $500 in transportation cost". This $500 cost is not noted anywhere on the website, so that's red flag one. I was told the covered transportation cost was $2,000. So I simply asked them to reduce the purchase price of the vehicle by that exact amount and handle the transportation cost myself. Surprise surprise, I was able to get fully covered transportation for hundreds less than $2,000, so this is just another way for them to disingenuously get some extra money from you. If you want to avoid lack of communication, dishonesty, and the possibility of purchasing a car that simply does not operate, do not work with this company.

    Absolutely great place for beautiful cars of all sorts. See Caden when you get there. Process is fast and easy. Car selection is the best in the area. !!!!

    Lazy group of car salesmen. Quick auction buy and flip house. Cars aren't thorougly inspected before the sale and promises aren't kept. When you call them to let them know they're a lazy bunch, they get defensive and then make more promises and then do nothing. I purchased a 2019 M5 competition with 23,000 miles on the clock on April 12th and the car is already in for $6500 worth of warranty work at BMW. I also only received one key with the car and asked for a second; nothing was done about this. I am also already replacing a set of rear tires (1100). I don't really see any difference between buying these cars from an auction. They were surprised when I called them pissed off about this. Make sure you do a thorough pre purchase inspection before you buy anything from here.

    After I cleaned the exhaust tips and applied plastic restore on rear diffuser and black trim pieces.

    I had a great experience with everyone at LW Automotive when purchasing my 2007 Chevy Corvette Z06 with 32k miles. I live in the west coast and paid for inclosed transportation because I didn't want to risk any damage from rock chips or potential debris along the high way. I paid for the difference because they provide free transportation within the US and the car arrived in exactly two weeks. I believe I spoke with Caden when I first called about the car. He was professional and courteous from the beginning to the end. When I called 1 week after I wired the money over and asked if they had any updates on when it was to arrive they got me the contact of the company and driver the same day. Andy the person in charge of transportation got back to me the same day and told me one week Sunday. Andy is a proper legend and got to me so fast. The car arrived on Sunday I was stoked. It was a dusty when it came out the inclosed trailer but that's not surprising that having traveled 2500 miles. It's been raining hard last few days so I haven't gotten a chance to drive it just into the garage. Today was the first day I got to drive the car, the car battery was dead. Not surprised or upset. Cars been sitting for 2-3 months at their lot and only drove 2 miles since it was first listed for sale on their site. It's winter and I'm sure they're not doing test drives in snow/bad weather unless someone was really serious about purchasing the vehicle. I only had 1/5 gas in the tank and didn't want to risk it not turning back on as the gas station, I had a portable battery jumper and the car jumped first try and went for a 30 min drive before it started to sprinkle and on the forecast it said severe rain was to start in 1-2 hours so I headed home. The car didn't make any weird noises, runs super smooth, and drives strait and doesn't drone or rattle. The car is all stock, I live in CA where you won't pass inspection if you have any after performance/engine/exhaust modification. The car appears to have been well taken cared for. The only part that was really dirty from the pictures so it wasn't out of the ordinary, was the exhaust tips. I got some stainless polish and oxidizer and looks 10x better. I had to wait a couple days until I could post a review because the car came covered in dust and I haven't had a chance so I got a mobile detailer to come out in the pouring rain and give it the works, it's clean and so nice to look at now. Today was the first time I got to drive the car before it started to rain again shortly after/ Thank you for everyone again at LW Automotive for making my early bday gift to myself happen! I'm happy with my purchase.

    Bought a 2000 BMW 323i from here last year. Car had only 110,000 miles and was very reasonably price. Still driving the car today with 150,000 miles. I've had no major issues with the car and would highly recommend LW!

    Pending edit on conflict resolution***** Purchased a 2008 bmw 335xi manual , first the car was 3 weeks late for pickup due to repairs that were needed (oil pan gasket needing the subframe dropped) when I go there to pick it up it was still dirty, while they powerer washed under the hood i noticed all of the covers blew off bolts were missing that weren't at the time of purchase agreement. the tire pressure moniter was saying malfunction they said it was probably needing air, after purchase and trip to bmw tire pressure monitors were missing, 3 weeks in car starts to make squeeking sounds and raw fuel smell and smoking, no offer for a loaner car i missed work after complaining and leaving a bad review they gave me fuel injectors i installed myself because i didnt trust them after losing 2 serpentie belts and finding more loose bolts and a fully disconnected turbo inlet pipe (turbo was sucking unfiltered air from engine bay) after repair After repairs i replaced 2 more serpentine belts at $35.00ea 3 more weeks later while rounding a bend on the freeway power steerig lines came loose spraying my brakes and tire almost making me wreck, i called on a friday no reply from them till i called them back on a monday , the car was fixed by lw tightened lines refilled fluid oem spec. 1 week later another serpentine belt down had car towed to lw tired of replacing belts they made the "repairs" putting another belt on no doubt and i went to pick up my car , 1 milendown the road the car shuts off i pull over look under the hood my radiator fan wasnt installed and still in my trunk i vowed not to let them touch my car again After that i babied the car waiting for it to break again 1 month goes by i go to inspect under hood for maintenence notice serpentine pullies melted half a serpentine belt remains on the drive pullies. I park the car order new tensioner deflector pullies and belt have a shop install them , 5 miles down the road belt slips again had to have the car towed home, then while inspecting the vehicle noticed both front tires have exsessive camber wear telling me they didnt align the car after dropping the subframe to repair the oil pan gasket Ive missed work and been riding the bus now for 2 weeks and have a wonderful looking $14.9k + tax dollar paper weight i cant drive now.. ive called the dealership 2 times once on 9/3 once on 9/6 and left messages they dont seem to want to get back to me I would steer clear of this place after you pay them and the 90 day warrenty is up which is only good if your engine granades and doesnt cover anything else they will just tell you to pound salt or ignore you

    It was enjoyable, relaxed and I've never had a stranger extend to me as much respect in the car buying experience as this multinational car dealer has.

    I can't sing the praises of CarSense enough. I absolutely LOVE this place! We have purchased 2 cars…read morefrom there, and both experiences were incredibly pleasant. We had to buy the second one after our first was totaled, but we got to work with Jaison both times, as well as Chester the second time. They were both unbelievably kind and helpful in ensuring a comfortable and relaxed buying experience. They also were so helpful in answering all of our questions, and they really cared about my husband and I way beyond the sale. 10/10 would recommend! Also, I've used the "service" side of CarSense and their service is seriously unmatched! Eric and Bill are super nice and patient, and you can be assured that your vehicle is in the best hands. They don't try to sneak extra charges on like many other mechanics will. I love the honesty and integrity that they have, and I always look forward to visiting when my car needs work done. Thank you guys so much!!

    This Carshop has the worst service I've experienced in decades. I dont know who bought or took over…read morecarsense Robinson, but they're awful. It tookseveral phone calls just together through to the service desk. I made an appointment for 7 weeks in advance for the annual inspection. The inspection went well, I only needed one tire to pass, and they didn't have it in stock so I was asked to call back. Again it was impossible to get through to the service desk. I got a message to buy a medical device or it went straight to Car Shop Cranberry. When I spoke with someone at the Cranberry location. I was told they couldn't make any appointments for the Robinson service desk, and they couldn't transfer me to the Robinson service. The clerk said the Robinson shop phones "didn't work". I was going to go into the Robinson service area in person, but on the way, I drove by 5 tire stores. I'll make an appointment at one of those businesses for my one 129.95 tire. And Carshop has lost our entire family's business. We used to only buy our cars their and always had a great experience. Maybe 3 cars bought there in ten years doesn't mean anything to whoever changed Carsense to Carshop. But im not buying a car from someplace that doesn't have phones that work.

Warren was a great help to. When I purchased the vehicle it had a slight squeak. was told that is normal in Jeeps me and my husband did not think much of it. However in coming months the noise got really bad, made an appointment with the Jeep dealership owned by Cochran in Natrona heights. After arriving the service tech came out to the jeep pushed down on it and said yes that is not normal. He also told me that my jeep was out of warranty and I would probably be looking at about 45-90 dollars. If anymore he would let me know. After taking the jeep apart they found the issue and stated it was an arm control that goes into the bushing and the passenger side is worse than the drivers side. He quoted me the price to fix of 301.00. I stated to him I really do not think that it is fair for me to pay for something that had already started to be an issue when I purchased the vehicle. He asked me were I purchased the vehicle and I told him Monroeville Cochran. He said he would call over there and talk to someone and see what he could do. After speaking with the big manager from Monroeville, he told me that Monroeville is going to cove the expense to fix not one of the arm controls but both. That to me was a blessing and shows me that Cochran really does care about their customers and goes above and beyond to make them happy, I really appreciate the great customer service this type of service gives a business returning customers and customers recommending them to go to Cochran to purchase a vehicle. I just want to say thank you and I will be a returning customers for years to come and recommend to my family and friends for the buying experience. thank you Desiree Parsons

To top it off, we found out that they were video recording our conversations without my permission, which we found quite unsettling. It's now been three months since we canceled those warranties, and we still haven't received any refunds. We've sent numerous emails and made several phone calls, but we haven't heard back from anyone. It's been incredibly disappointing, and we would urge others to steer clear of this dealership.

    This is my favorite auto mechanic in our area. Michael is a super ethical and competent mechanic…read morethat has a nice way of telling you what needs repaired or serviced. They go out of their way to serve their customers. One time, they even had someone give me a lift home and picked me back up because the repair was going to take a long time and they didn't want me to have to sit there. Now that's service! I have an older car so I am always worried when I take it in for the annual inspection. Michael and his team never rip you off by making up repairs or anything even on an older car which I totally appreciate. They have done both major (replaced my AC system) and minor (old change, tire rotation and inspections) work for me and I could not recommend them any more. My only gripe is their driveway which sometimes gets deep ruts in it that's hard on our other car which sits low to the ground. They do try to keep up with it to make it smoother but it's difficult since it's just gravel. Minor gripe for such a great place.
