Unfortunately I was told by Service Advisor Riad Almasri that it's not covered under warranty. Therefore if I wanted it fixed I could order the seat for $1,200.00 and labor would be $300.00. I went ahead and ordered a new seat. Riad informed me that the seat could take up to 2 months to receive because it's a custom order. The new drivers seat came in within a month. I arrived on May 18th to have my new drivers seat installed. Other than the obnoxious price for a new drivers seat & labor I'm very pleased by the overall service I received from Riad.

Buying a car can be exciting, but it can also be exhausting. In the past, we've experienced the…read moretypical high-pressure sales environment--salespeople following us around the lot, constant phone calls, and feeling pushed to make a decision before we were ready. When my husband and I walked into Riverside Hyundai, our intention was simply to look. We wanted to compare the 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy, explore the available upgrades, review the warranty, and get an idea of pricing. We had absolutely no plans to purchase that day since we were leaving for vacation and didn't want to buy a brand-new vehicle only to have it sit unattended in our driveway for a couple of weeks. We were greeted by Alex, who listened to exactly what we were looking for and guided us in the right direction without any pressure. It didn't take long before we found the perfect Santa Fe Calligraphy with the exact exterior color and interior we wanted. Alex invited us into his office, where we spent about 45 minutes with him and "Big B" reviewing the available options. We explained that we were shopping around and simply wanted a printed quote to take home and compare. There was no sales pitch, no pressure, and, to our surprise, Alex never even asked for our phone number or email address. That alone spoke volumes. After returning from vacation, we visited several other dealerships. Most immediately asked to see the quote Alex had given us and simply said, "We'll beat it by $500." That approach told us they weren't interested in earning our business--they just wanted to undercut someone else's work. Despite asking not to be contacted, we also received repeated follow-up calls from other dealerships. To make matters worse, several were quoting us 2025 models even though we had specifically requested pricing on a 2026. At that point, we knew Alex was our guy. When we reached back out after our vacation, the conversation picked up right where it left off--friendly, professional, and completely pressure-free. We worked out a fair deal with a simple handshake, and we felt confident moving forward. Buying a vehicle isn't just about purchasing a car--it's about choosing a dealership you'll trust for years to come. The sales experience is only the beginning, and we're hopeful the service department will continue to provide the same level of professionalism and customer care that Alex and the team showed us from day one. If you're looking for a relaxed, honest, and no-pressure car-buying experience, we highly recommend asking for Alex at Riverside Hyundai. Thanks again, Alex! Tom & Heather

Scott Brady has saved Honda's reputation! Mr. Brady has been nothing short of amazing...dynamic…read morepersonality, thorough, pleasant, respectful, knowledgeable and above all - professional! My 2024 Prologue is the first Honda I have owned and I have not been happy at all. Spreen Honda totally corrupted my opinion of dealerships and multiple issues with this vehicle has severely tarnished Honda's image. This vehicle, unbeknownst to me at the time, was really a GMC vehicle that Honda placed their name on. There are two open recalls on the truck. My vehicle has been in and out of the Spreen dealership more than 10 times in less than a year - axle clicking, front bumper coming off, display console blackouts, rear camera blackout, vehicle not updating, HondaLink app not connecting to the car, etc. Spreen service counselors are the worst liars ever. Service have told me that parts were not available for any of the recall and the issues with the axle could not be addressed until Honda authorized the replacement. Spreen needs to be investigated by the State of California!! After the poor service at Spreen multiple times, I decided to make an appointment with Riverside Honda. Mr. Brady was my assigned service counselor. Mr. Brady assured me that my vehicle would get a thorough inspection and all issues found will be addressed. As it turned out my concerns of safety were confirmed when the technician discovered that BOTH axles (left & right) were bad, clicking when making turns at low speed, and needed to be replaced. The vehicle is NOT two years old yet and there warranty repairs needed...?!?!? Mr. Brady ordered the axle parts and had them installed under the warranty. He also got the display recall repaired. Mr. Brady kept in contact with me the entire day whenever my vehicle was left in his care. Again, Mr. Brady has saved the face of Honda. However, I certainly believe I got a LEMON from Spreen Honda. If anyone has had the same issues and found a Lemon attorney to handle, please let me know.

This is the third time I've tried to leave a review about my experience here, and previous ones…read morehave not remained posted. That alone should raise concerns. My experience with this dealership was extremely frustrating. I did not feel that my concerns were taken seriously, and despite being contacted after my initial review, no meaningful effort was made to resolve the situation. At one point, I was warned about potential "defamation" for sharing my experience. That response felt inappropriate and discouraging, especially when I was simply trying to communicate what happened from my perspective. I was also repeatedly contacted by a salesperson even after I made it clear I was not interested, which added to the negative experience. If you are shopping for a car, I strongly recommend taking your time, comparing offers, and considering financing through a credit union or outside lender so you have more control in the process. Overall, I would not return here based on how my situation was handled.

Dear Walters Mercedes-Benz of Riverside Management, I am…read morewriting to express my profound disappointment with both the reliability of our electric vehicle and the level of customer service we have received from your dealership. Shortly after purchasing the vehicle, we experienced a serious battery-related failure that left the vehicle in your service department for approximately 30 days. Unfortunately, we are now facing the same issue for a second time. The vehicle has once again required battery-related repairs and has now been out of service for more than two months. What is most concerning is that on both occasions the vehicle lost all power while traveling on the freeway. This was not merely an inconvenience--it was a significant safety concern. Thankfully, both times I was close enough to an exit to safely maneuver the vehicle off the roadway. Had that not been the case, the outcome could have been far more serious. When purchasing a luxury vehicle, there is an expectation that the product will be reliable and that the ownership experience will be supported by a high level of professionalism, communication, and customer care. Unfortunately, our experience has fallen well short of those expectations. After two major battery-related failures and more than three months of cumulative repair time, we have lost confidence in both the vehicle and the dealership's ability to resolve these issues satisfactorily. We would appreciate a clear explanation of the ongoing problems with the vehicle, a definitive timeline for repair, and a meaningful resolution that reflects the seriousness of this situation. We chose Mercedes-Benz because of its reputation for quality and customer service, and we expect that reputation to be reflected in how this matter is handled. We look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely,

Rudy asked me to submit my vehicle inquiry and specifications on his company website and once I did, Rudy went straight to work. He worked diligently throughout the day, contacting his network of dealerships and kept me in the loop. He found the perfect car with every option I asked for. Matter of fact, the car was optioned even better than what I asked, all within my budget. By 7pm that evening, I was able to get my wife into her new Lexus RX350. My wife loves her new ride. Happy wife = happy life. Thank you Rudy for everything. You have definitely earned a lifetime client. Will be reaching out again for my next car purchase.

Rudy knows the car business inside and out and will handle all aspects of the purchase, including the trade-in.

When the day of delivery came, the buyer came with a tow truck, some standard paperwork for me to sign and a check for my equity. Amazing! Thanks again, Rudy and South Coast Auto Brokers for another 5-Star experience. Looking forward to doing business with you all again!

A lot of new faces but I did recognize Zeke and was thankful being assigned him for my service manager. He's shy but very kind &friendly once he warms up to you. :) I arrived for the 8am service for my new RX hybrid and greeted right away by Nicolas. His polite and welcoming demeanor is a huge plus, especially to a girly-girl who knows little about cars. I was nervous and had a dozen questions swimming in my head; worried about my "new baby"-- but just chatting with Nicolas, I was already put at ease. "Service with a smile" goes a long way and he has a great attitude for customer service. Ezekiel (you can call him Zeke) is awesome as well. He jotted down all my concerns and made sure to explain every step of the process. He didn't have the "smarmy, condescending car salesman" attitude. Since this was my first service for the new RX hybrid, it was an easy process but they actually made me feel welcomed and comfortable, which is incredibly appreciated. Zeke also double-checked and explained the care/service package that I had purchased. He was always polite and patient with all my silly questions. It's only because of Zeke and Nick that I will continue to choose Riverside Lexus and tell all my family and friends to get their services done there. :) See you in a few months, Zeke!
