    Annetta B.

    We submitted an internet inquiry Thursday evening. Courtney contacted us the next morning. We were at the dealership that evening buying the Stelvio! Courtney was very friendly and knowledgeable. She took her time with us explaining the features of each model we were looking at. They gave us a great trade in for our Volvo. The dealership is nice and offered drinks and snacks. Finance was a breeze. Nothing was snuck in nor was there pressure to purchase any 'packages' which was a relief. It was the most painless car buying experience we have ever had. I highly recommend Courtney as a salesperson and Northside Imports as a dealership. We are so happy with the car buying experience and love the Stelvio! First class all the way!

    Summary: Northside Imports wanted to charge me $11,190.11 to fix something on my car that didn't need to be fixed. Helfman Maserati of Sugar Land fixed the real problem for $2,653.57 and the car has been running great! Working with Northside Imports was absolutely the worst experience I have ever had from any mechanic in my life. If you are thinking about using Northside Imports to fix your car, think again! If you are considering purchasing a vehicle from them, don't. They are incompetent and dishonest. Find another dealer! Round 1: After having my mechanic install a clutch in my Maserati, I brought Northside my car which was running and shifting fine. However, the new clutch needed to be synchronized by a Maserati certified mechanic with the right equipment. I had also told Northside that the radio needed to be reprogrammed and that I had had the code. I expected this to be a 5-minute job for them. After about a week, Northside called and told me that my car would no longer start. Northside told me that the F1 pump had failed and that it would cost me $2,000 for the part and $2,000 for the labor to have it fixed. According to Northside Imports, it was necessary to drop the transmission to replace the F1 pump. Northside also told me that the radio was not the original radio that came with the car and that they would have to pull the radio out, get a number off of the back of it, and send it to Maserati in Italy to get the proper code. This was going to cost an additional $300. When I told the mechanic that replaced the clutch, he told me they were not telling me the truth. He told me he knew exactly where the F1 pump was and that he could replace it in about an hour without dropping the transmission. To verify this, I went ahead and called Helfman Maserati of Sugar Land and they agreed with my mechanic and told me it was unnecessary to drop the transmission to replace the F1 pump. Subsequently, I towed the vehicle back to my mechanic, had him replace the F1 pump which I got new on eBay for $400, and I towed the vehicle back to Northside Imports so that they could finish the synchronization of the clutch that I had already paid for. As for the radio, my mechanic took the code that I gave him and was able to get the radio working for free without having to pull it out. Round 2: After having my Maserati towed back the second time at Northside Imports, I eventually received a call from them that the aftermarket F1 pump that my mechanic put on was not OEM, that the F1 system had been compromised by my mechanic, and that the entire system needed to be replaced for $11,190.11. Having some history with Northside at this point, I was pretty much done with having them do anything on my car, so I went ahead and towed the vehicle directly to Helfman Maserati of Sugar Land. Round 3: Helfman Maserati of Sugar Land did an amazing job of fixing my car! They said something was screwed up with the computer that was preventing the car from starting and they had to take it out and send it to Maserati to have it reprogrammed. Since this was not an issue that existed before Northside Imports had the car, I suspect that they were responsible for causing this for about $1,200. Helfman then fixed the transmission leak for another $1,200 that Northside wanted $11,000 to fix. Conclusion: I have been driving the car and it starts fine, the clutch is working great, and there are no transmission leaks. Do not do business with Northside Imports. If Helfman Maserati of Sugar Land was not around, I would tow my car to a Maserati dealership in Austin before I ever let Northside Imports touch my car again. And if you are not using them for car maintenance, do they really sound like someone you would want to purchase a car from? Car dealers have such a bad reputation to begin with and Northside Imports really lives up to the stereotypical negative expectations often associated with businesses just like this.

    If you're looking to change it up and drive an Italian ride...come to Northside Imports...they strictly sell Fiats...Maseratis...and my favorite...the Alfa Romeo...I purchased my Giulia from here...and been treated like I was their number one customer ever since...their customer service is the best...by far...and after my purchase...a large gift basket was left doorstep...filled with Italian goodies...when you come to location...you won't be hassled...and they will allow you to look around until you have a question...their selection is nice...and their prices are fair...after you purchase your vehicle...they will continue to contact you...occasionally...just to keep that seller/buyer relationship honest...and if you have to take your vehicle in for any type of maintenance...the guys here have all of the top of the line equipment...and even the maintenance area looks beautiful...I'm glad I made my purchase from this location...and if I had to do it again...I would not hesitate...you should visit this location...and drive away in a little Italian luxury...trust me...you want regret it...

    Broken  suspension
    Ryan F.

    So much for their 110 point inspection. Any mechanic worth his or her weight would have noticed the suspension was loose. I could wiggle this by hand. Less than 3 days off the lot. Not impressed at all.

    Paid over $1000 to have an exterior trim piece re-attached on my Fiat. First time, the trim detached after a few weeks. Requested a loaner since it was their bad. Had to wait a month and a half to bring back for redo waiting on the loaner. Finally went to pick up the vehicle and it looked like a backyard repair (See picture) I could have done. Had to argue with the service writer (Camron) that it was not acceptable. He got real snitty about having to redo the work again, telling me that I would be behind 16 other repairs he had to have completed before getting to mine. That is until I requested the Service Manager's business card. Received a call yesterday from Blake, the Service Manager, telling me that the repair work was "lousy" and that he had it redone and I could pick up the vehicle in 2 days. All I can surmise is that they charged me Maserati prices and put their third string player on the repair job. Hope the work is satisfactory this time, really do not want to deal with Camron and his childish attitude any more.

    Lovely looking car right?! Nobody around.,

    See all

There's a Taco Cabana within walking distance, so I typically walk over there, have a few margaritas, walk back and I'm out the door. If that isn't your thing, they have several nice, large waiting areas with complimentary fountain drinks and coffee. The customer service is just outstanding!

Every service representative that I've delt with has been a pleasure and on many occasions, have surprised me with a coupon or discount that I wasn't expecting.

I bought a car from NexCar in July 2025, and I just got around to changing the oil on it. I found that the technician at NexCar cross threaded the drain plug (this damages the oil pan, leads to oil leaks, and can put metal shavings in the oil), and I know NexCar did this because they change the oil on all their cars. To remedy their mistake, some gorilla put RTV silicone all around the plug and WAY over tightened it (this further damaged the pan and can put silicone in the oil). I immediately took pictures and videos of their horrible repair and got a repair quote from a local shop. I sent these to Beto, a service representative, and he took days to respond after repeated calls. Today, after the car has been waiting in a shop for three days, I called again just to be informed by the owner that the cars are sold "as is" and they won't pay for the repairs. If I bought the car from someone on Facebook, I would assume such risks. However, this was an established business with seemingly good reviews. NexCar strung me around for a week waiting an answer and repeatedly ignored my calls. What NexCar did was crooked, and businesses like them give used car dealers a bad reputation. If I could leave a 0 star review, I would.

    YELP Review for Hunter Cavieves - North Freeway Hyundai…read more 20440 I-45 North Spring, TX 77373 North Freeway Hyundai I45 I went to look at Hyundai vehicles back in late December '25 and Hunter Cavieves came over and assisted me with looking at different Hyundai models. I went in to look at one particular model and before I knew it he had me looking at others. He was a great help at giving me different options and I even test drove several different models. I narrowed it down to a 2026 Tucson and he also assisted in getting my price as to what I was willing to pay. I finally decided which one I wanted and it was actually parked in the showroom floor with a fancy red Christmas ribbon on it. I came by later that evening with my youngest daughter and finalized the purchase. He has been the greatest and biggest help and I highly recommend working with him. I have been driving it for 8 months now and I am really impressed and enjoying my Tucson. I enjoy everything about it and have been on short road trips and it's been great. The ride is very comfortable and it's also loaded with many features. The stereo sounds awesome too! I really like the screen set up and all the cameras and its different angles. I stopped by to get an oil change at the dealership and Hunter saw me and came by to see how everything was going. I can't brag enough but he is a great person and very friendly. He is currently working in the OnLine Sales Dept and his office is in the front showroom floor. If you're interested in looking at vehicles I highly recommend talking to him. My two previous Service Dept visits were also great. My visits were for an oil change and also a system update. Audry and Mia were very friendly and kept me updated as to what the service Dept was working on and approximately how long the work would take. I found out that Mia is no longer working there but just wanted to also brag about her as well. I feel that my 2026 Tucson is a great vehicle and it's a solid one!

When my vehicle was returned, it had 1 mile of fuel remaining--not one gallon, one mile. I understand that dealerships don't normally fill up your gas tank after service, but when the service manager, Clay, specifically promises that the vehicle will be fueled before it's returned, I expect that promise to be kept. Instead, I was left wondering if I'd even make it to a gas station. Thankfully, I have AAA and was able to get two gallons of gas delivered. Without that, I could have easily been stranded. What made this experience even worse was the complete lack of accountability. No courtesy call to let me know the fuel level was critically low, no apology, and no effort to make the situation right. I even would have been willing to meet someone at a gas station with the loaner vehicle to put gas in my car if they had simply communicated. Instead, Clay suggested that I drive all the way back to the dealership in Spring to have them fill it up--even though he knows I live in Katy. That would have meant wasting a significant amount of gas just to correct a mistake the dealership made. Customer service is about keeping your word and taking responsibility when something goes wrong. Unfortunately, I experienced neither. Very disappointing.

A few days later, while both my boyfriend and I were at work, we started receiving nonstop calls from Omar and Muhammad. When I finally had a chance to answer, Omar told me, "If you and your boyfriend don't sign this right now, we're going to repossess the car."I was extremely confused. We were in the process of adding me as a co-signer, and as a 19-year-old first-time buyer, I had never gone through this process before and didn't fully understand what was happening. I told them I could sign immediately, but my boyfriend was eight hours away at work and could not.I was then told that if he did not sign within an hour, they would repossess the vehicle. Rather than calmly explaining the situation or working with us, we were met with threats and pressure. It felt as though Omar and Muhammad were more concerned about covering themselves and avoiding trouble than helping their customers.We worked very hard for this vehicle, and being threatened with repossession over paperwork that we were actively trying to complete was completely unprofessional and unacceptable. First-time buyers should be treated with patience and respect, not intimidation. If you're a first time buyer i suggest not going here!

    My experience here was better than I expected…read more I came here because I needed to get my convertible roof top replaced since I recently bought a used convertible from their sister dealership in Austin called Austin Expo Cars. The top came with a torn roof and I had an agreement signed with them stating that they will replaced it with a brand new one after I bought the car. Sure enough, a few weeks later they shipped the new roof top to Uptown Imports and I was to directly coordinate with them from there on out. My main point of contact was Narius Irani, or also known as "Wally". I was apprehensive at first because I wasn't sure how well he would be able to get a hold of or how professional he would be. I had instances in the past where I would try calling other businesses three times, leave voice mails and text, and not get a reply back until a few days later (I opt not to mention who or where at this point). Wally was an exceptional person who answered all my calls and responded to voice mails promptly. He handled my (stressful) situation well by setting a solid date on when I could have the roof fixed and even scheduled for me to pick it up on a Sunday (closed). I was pleasantly surprised at the professionalism offered and would recommend contacting him for your next business. It may not seem like much, but when you have other people owing you parts and labor worth a lot of money and the only proof is a small piece of "I owe you" paper, the "unknown" factor scares you. I'm just glad I did not have to go through my company lawyer for this one! In the end, although I did not purchase a car from them, I had the pleasure of dealing with Uptown Imports. Just FYI, my roof was repaired by Joe Ram. He did a fantastic job on my convertible and put emphasis on quality. One of the straps that he was going to re-use was broken and I had it replaced at no cost. I believe others would have just re-used it.

However, upon receiving the car, I discovered multiple issues that were not disclosed prior to the sale. The audio system is defective, with severe distortion even at low volume. I specifically asked about the radio as it looked like it was post-factory installed. The vehicle came with only one key, which was in terrible condition (I'd rate it 7 out of 100). On top of that, the car was never detailed before it was shipped -- the interior was dirty, and the engine bay was filled with leaves and debris, which is shocking for a vehicle with only 38,000 miles. The doors had glue all over them as someone had taken them apart and tried to put them together. None of this was mentioned beforehand and the list can go on! I contacted Angello immediately to address these issues, but after multiple attempts, I've received no response except "I will forward your message to the director" I got a loan for the can and cannot register it in California because Uptown imports did not send the pink slip to the DMV or to the bank (as they are supposed to) Eventually they ended up sending it to me! (WHAT?) How are they in business of selling cars if they don't even know what to do with the pink slip?! This level of communication and customer service is completely unacceptable. If a business can't stand behind what it sells--or even respond after the sale--that speaks volumes. I've waited long enough for a resolution and am extremely disappointed in how this was handled. Buyers... beware!
