    TPMS FAILED

    I bought a used Ram 1500 from North County Ford, and my post-sale experience was disappointing. Within a few days several issues showed up: the TPMS stopped working next day, the ParkSense system was failing intermittently, and the differential was leaking oil, even though the truck was supposedly inspected and "in great condition." I also reported a water leak coming from the roof antenna or possibly the rear window. The service dept said they needed approval to fix it, but I never heard back. In the end I had to fix the ParkSense and the differential leak myself. The water leak is still pending. I understand it's a used truck, but that doesn't justify selling it with problems and going silent after the sale. If you're thinking about buying here, think twice. I'm still hoping North County Ford will step up and help resolve the remaining water leak issue.

    Thumbs down for trash service!

    Showed up to bring our lease back early and run the numbers. We showed up right at 10am and the lady that walked out was unwilling to help us unless we were going to make another ford purchase with the lease return. Hilarious and a complete kook, only willing to do something if we were purchasing a new ford. "Oh no you'll need to make an appointment for that if you aren't making another purchase" For the record Encinitas ford just took 30 mins to give us numbers and told us they would buy our car back and we could walk away, no appointment needed! Avoid North County Ford at all costs!

    Radiator fluid
    Javier G.

    Brought my car into the service department for an oil change,tire rotation, and a 99 point inspection on April 16, 2026 after my service was done drove home. when I got home I noticed radiator fluid coming from my car open up the hood just to realize all the radiator fluid had leaked out through a leaking hose. Contacted Ford on april 20th 2026. Make them aware of the situation I found it very suspicious that my vehicle has a radiator leak after an inspection and oil change the tire rotation. Janet, who was helping me advise me that they would tow the car to their location to see what they could do I explained to Janet if there was nothing that could be done then I would like my car towed back. after having my vehicle all day. I called about six times left a voicemail and I got no calls return. I had to go down at 5:30 PM on April 20,2026 to see what was going on with my vehicle just to be told that they're not sure if they're going to cover anything and it's due to the fact that they don't feel like they're liable for this even though they didn't catch this during the inspection. They also made me aware that they didn't know how much the part was gonna cost even though their parts department is right next-door to their service department, which I went over And I found the price for the part, bought the part for them went to go give it to them. I do not recommend this service department they don't catch issues and they don't communicate .if you want a bad experience and poor service and lied about what they do to your car and service then this is the place to go.

    My daughter was hit and totaled her Bronco Sport. I needed a replacement and went 5 local dealers and dealt with more online. When I went to North County Ford, Oscar Gomez was my salesman and he was fantastic. He worked hard to locate the exact car I was looking for and the negotiation was simple. Great car, great time. Then you gear up for finance, usually more smoke and mirrors but Mike Cottrell made the paperwork so simple. Great guy, great process. Then Oscar walked me through all the features, connected my iPhone to the car and made sure I was handled. Thank you North County Ford!

The process was easy and honest from the start. We agreed on a fair price for both of us and they had no problem with me taking the truck to an independent mechanic before buying it. After purchasing it, I also had my longtime mechanic look it over and he said it was in fantastic shape. Several months later the truck has been great. It needs normal maintenance, which is expected with the mileage, but there have been no major issues at all. The owner and his wife were both incredibly kind and easy to work with. It felt like dealing with real people who care about their family and their business. I would absolutely recommend them. Editado para añadir español: Compré una troca usada aquí. El proceso fue fácil y el precio fue justo. Mi mecánico dijo que la troca estaba en muy buen estado. El dueño y su esposa fueron muy amables y los recomiendo.

I was interested in a cargo van that had to be shipped from Louisiana, so the process took a little longer than expected. From 8/10/26 to 9/3/26, Kevin kept us updated and was always on top of providing us with information whenever we asked for an update. We definitely asked a lot of questions, and he was always patient and helpful. We purchased a one-owner 2023 Ram ProMaster 2500 with 63,000 miles for $25,000. It has only been a few days since our purchase, but so far the van looks great and drives great, and we feel like we got a really good deal. The entire team was helpful and made the buying process smooth. I would definitely recommend Enterprise Car Sales, and especially Kevin, if you're looking for someone who is patient, responsive, and easy to work with!

Their sales consultant, Will, reached out to me the next day via e-mail and text and he was just so polite! We corresponded via email a few times and confirmed that they had the car that I wanted and it was still available. I wanted to negotiate a drive-off price via e-mail since I live in LA and wanted to secure a price that I was happy with before making the 100 mile drive out to Carlsbad. Will introduced me to Ash, his sales manager, and after a few more email exchanges, we agreed to a price that I was happy with. Just like Will, Ash was very friendly and professional in his e-mails to me. I was fearful that they would try to upsell me with add-ons, or make the long drive out there only to find out that the car was no longer available, but those fears were unfounded. Once my husband and I reached the dealership, Ash greeted us immediately, knew exactly who I was, and knew exactly what car and what price we agreed upon. No haggling, no bait-and-switch, no upsell tactics. We were also introduced to Will who showed my husband the vehicle for a test drive. Will was such a car enthusiast like my husband that they spent the next 15 minutes just chatting up about all the previous vehicles they had owned. He was such a pleasure to work with! He walked us through the forms and then brought us over to Leo who worked in the finance department. Just like Ash and Will, Leo was super friendly and personable. He went through our financial documents so efficiently too! The whole process at the dealership took less than 2 hours, including the test drive. My husband and I have purchased over a dozen cars through the years and we both agreed that our experience at AutoNation Mazda Carlsbad was by far the best. We spent the drive home talking about how excited we were already to buy another Mazda. This dealership is top notch. I am already recommending to my friends and relatives to make the drive out here for their next vehicle. It was totally worth it!

    Beware of RECOMMENDED services suggested by JUAN at Mazda Carlsbad. At my 32K maintenance…read moreappointment (April 2026) it was recommended I do a Brake Flush and a Coolant Transfer. At the time, I declined because I like to research expensive repairs before proceeding. I called yesterday to schedule an appointment based on the 'Service Due' message on my dashboard. My car has approx 37K miles on it now so it is just out of warranty but due for an oil change & tire rotation. I purchased the service maintenance plan when I purchased the auto in National City (another story) so those services are covered until the plan expires next year. Again both a Brake Flush and a Coolant Transfer was recommended. I said 'yes' to those additional services knowing I had time to research typical cost, etc. for those services. Well, low & behold, I discover that Mazda specs recommend a Coolant flush at 10 years/120K miles! In the meantime, I called a local auto service who was APPALLED that Mazda Carlsbad would 'recommend' service that was unnecessary and didn't correspond to Mazda's official recommended service schedule. So, I called JUAN to discuss this discrepancy (recommending a service 90K miles BEFORE it was necessary). I just got off the phone with him and his attitude was 'it's recommended, but hey, it's your my decision'! Thank you, JUAN for allowing me to make my own decision, you little snake! So, even though I called him out for recommending an unnecessary service he acted as if it was no big deal trying to sell me on something my car didn't really need. Now that my car is out of warranty I will only take it there for oil changes, tire rotation and services covered by the plan until it expires next year. Oh, and by the way it appears that their service personnel seems to be different every time I go there... STAY AWAY FROM MAZDA CARLSBAD. THEY ARE SHADY AF.

    Dealing with Toyota Carlsbad was hands down the worst car buying experience I've ever had . I know…read moredealerships get a bad rap, but my god, I'll never step foot on to Toyota Carlsbad. A little backstory: I went to a different San Diego Toyota dealership to buy a new truck and trade in my current truck. No hassle, no fuss, I was offered $38K for my truck (KBB range for my truck was $36K-$42K). Unfortunately they didn't have the truck I wanted so I said I'd like to think about it. I left and did some research and saw Toyota Carlsbad had the truck I wanted. And here, our story begins. I called Carlsbad to see if they'd give me a quote for my truck over the phone. Mark was the one who I was transferred to to work out a deal. After going back and forth for over an hour with him and the previous person, he finally gave me a verbal offer of $35K. I told him no thank you, and disclosed a different San Diego Toyota dealership offered me $38K. But if Carlsbad could match or beat that offer, then we can work out a deal for my truck and also buy a new truck. He asked me to text him a picture of the offer when we get off the phone and he'll "see what he can do". So I immediately text him a picture of the offer sheet from the other San Diego Toyota dealership and well as the KBB print out... no response for the rest of the day. I then text him later the next evening because I never heard back from him asking if he can help me. He then responded 3 DAYS LATER with, in short, "drive to Carmax, they pay top dollar. Get a quote, send it to me, and I'll match it". I told him I don't have time to drive to carmax because I work the next several days, but if he can just let me know if he can match or beat the offer from the other San Diego Toyota dealership to let me know and I'll drive over and make the deal because they have the truck I like. He then insisted the rest of the next 2 days via text that I drive to Carmax and he'll match that offer. To humor Mark, I called Carmax during my lunch break and asked if the offer is the same in person versus online because I can't come in person before they close due to work. They said it's the same. So I did their online offer option and the offer was $34K. This is what REALLY makes me angry. Rather than saying yes or no on my other offer to match or beat it, he insisted I go to Carmax. And he WELL KNEW that the offer was $34K, that's why he strategically offered me $35K. And why would he think that him matching an offer at $35K is something that I would entertain when I already proved to him that a different San Diego Toyota dealership offered me 38K?! He then later offered $36K, but I mean what's the point? I explicitly asked him to match or be that offer in order to make a deal. This is the reason why people don't trust car salesman. It's all lies and deception. I feel bad for the people who aren't quick enough to research things on their own and be able to recognize when people are straight lying to them. To end of the story, I went to a different San Diego Toyota dealership and they were amazing (see my other review for that company). They beat the 38K offer. Straightforward, honest transaction. No Carmax sales pitch. Just honest conversation and easy transaction. Two Toyota dealerships out of the three never mentioned Carmax once. So for Carlsbad to continue to insist I go to Carmax for an offer when they knew was a lowball offer, it's just so shady. Easy to say, I will never go to Carlsbad to buy yourself a vehicle
