I had been looking for a truck for a little over a month or so and came across this dealership. Walked in and was greeted by lupe who then handed us off to Tomas who was a great sales man! I had been to a few other dealerships with nobody being able to finance me. I have no credit so it was very hard to get a bank to finance me. The first time there we were not able to get a deal done with a more expensive truck so Tomas had stayed in contact with me sending me trucks anytime they got a trade in! I went back yesterday 6/18/20 and found a truck. Chris was able to help me find a bank and run the numbers and get a deal done. This dealership as a whole is by far one of the best i went to. The no hassle. No pushing sales people was great. It made the car buying experience more enjoyable. Couldn't be happier in my very first truck purchase! Thank you SD mission!! I will recommend you to everyone! This is somewhere where I will go back to buy cars in the future! read more

Don't do it. They buy shitty cars that will break down on you. They give you the car fax and act like everything is normal and don't even go over it with you. Save yourself the hassle and the money. read more

Do not buy from this dealership! They were friendly while selling me the car, but once problems started, their attitude completely changed. Two weeks after buying the car, the battery died. Four months later, my car was broken into because they failed to mention it had security issues. Worst of all, about six or seven months in, my engine almost caught fire while driving on the freeway! The manager was rude and unhelpful throughout. Save yourself the trouble and avoid this place! read more

They deserve ZERO stars. not even 2 weeks of having the car, we travelled and found out from a mechanic (that's in business for 27 yrs) that the tires were DRYROTTED. We paid over 1000 for a full set and this place only credited us 350. The stereo came messed up, and they only gave us 150. Idk any place that'll fix two broken speakers for 150. Con artist. & when we were addressing this to Chris, he blocked & ignored my partner. Stuck with the car. Not to mention we paid a huge deposit and it still has high payments. Don't get fooled by their broker for insurance either, she'll charge you wayyy more. Take your time and call around for insurance! Or do it before going, but I would NOT go here again. & before we were "credited" for the speakers, we drove an HOUR to get it fixed by the guy they're partnered with. He cancels and no one tells us until we were there and waiting. A waste of gas. He never even tried to reschedule. Not even a month of having the car, they repo'ed it with the new tires we just paid for. The only reason we didn't have all the cash is because we had to pay for brand new tires, which should have came with the car! The month wasn't even up, and she only had to pay $75 (the rest of the bill). They aren't trying to give my partner her $6,000 down payment back & the full amount ($1200) for the tires. Plus, the $300 something she paid for the car note went down the drain. The people are unprofessional, will block you, and the lady (manager) laughed in her face while telling her "you're not getting your money back." read more

I bought my first car here & had a very pleasant experience with Joel and the rest of the team. So far, the car has had a few issues, but the team there has taken care of all of it. There's a risk when it comes to buying used cars, but so far Mission Auto Sales has completely taken care of me and my cars issues, that were not cheap, so I really appreciate them taking care of that for me. I'm a single mom working two jobs so it really helps when people go above and beyond like this. I definitely would recommend this business to anyone purchasing a car. read more

ALL MILITARY PERSONNEL STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!! If I could give this place no stars I would. We purchased a wrapped BMW from this place and they assured us that the vehicle had no damage. It is very clear they knew the paint on some areas of the vehicle were primed and other areas of the car were so poorly painted that it is now stripping off. I can't emphasize enough if you are active duty military avoid this place at all costs they will lie straight to your face. read more

Putting a one star so my review can be posted this place is the WORST place to get a car .. I was sold a Lemon tried to return it or get it fixed since it was still under warranty and nothing I just had a really bad experience with the car I purchase I'm glad I didn't have my children in the car with me as the car I purchased STOPPED in the middle of the freeway . I called Tomas since he's the one that made the sale and he hung up and said he didn't know what I was talking about read more

My wife and I came in to look at a 2014 Mustang GT. Met Miguel while walking in. He took us out for the test drive and everything checked out. We went in, Did paperwork And was driving a sweet mustang GT in no time at all. The no pressure approach is something I really appreciate. Miguel was friendly, courteous and professional through the entire process. We will definitely be back in the future and will recommend to others. THIS is how a business should be run. Thank you ! read more

SD Mission Auto Sales - Car Dealers Near Me - Vista, California

I hate buying cars normally having to deal with typical BS and car salesmen. I have to say out of all the cars I have bought in my life, this is by far the best experience. No haggling, had me in and out in under 1.5 hour and gave me more for my trade in than expected. Daniel was awesome, laid back and so kind that I would recommend him to anyone. read more

I couldn't say enough good things to say about SD Mission! My family have all purchased for from them and it was no question where to go to help my dad get a reliable car. We were lucky enough to get help from Lupe who was nothing but amazing! Highly highly recommend! read more

I just purchased a Nissan Rogue from SD Mission Auto Sales. It was a great experience. There was no pressure and no hype. Tomas was very helpful and very professional. I was interested in the Nissan Rogue. Tomas showed me a few they and in stock. I took one for a test drive and it was a fantastic ride. Chris worked out the financing and I was in and out in less than two hours. Thank you Tomas and Chris!! You two made it a fantastic experience!!! I highly recommend SD Mission Auto Sales!!! read more

I can't say enough POSITIVE things about this dealership. Chris really did a great job at providing top notch service to my family -- from helping me find a car that works within our budget to making himself readily available. He is a really good guy and wasn't rude or pushy like the salespeople at the other used car lot down the road (Ahem, Classic Chariots)! Elmer (the owner) and his wife (whose name I regrettably have forgotten) are genuinely nice people. We are very grateful that they were able to negotiate fairly. I will definitely come back and buy a car from them again. I highly recommend them for your next auto purchase! read more

Bought two cars from these guys. It was a great pleasure dealing with them both times. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to buy a vehicle. read more

Highly recommended. Just bought a car from these guys this past Saturday. Lou was my salesman. I got put through the financial ringer in 2010 when the recession hit hard and my CR-V got totaled. I knew I had major dings in my credit and open accounts (i.e., student loans), so getting approved and trading in my old car with $4K still due was going to be near impossible. Being Saturday during tax refund season, the place was busy . There wasn't many places to sit, but thank God for SD weather. Despite pulling up my credit history, somehow, that didn't stop Lou from making a deal that day. He asked how much I could put towards a down, and I gave him an honest number without going bankrupt. He was upfront, told me what I'd need to bring to the table, and somehow knew what it would take to work the numbers... it took a couple of hours, a few phone calls, and a fax, but he was able to set me up for a loan in a great car at a price I could afford. The day didn't end after driving off the lot. Our "newer" car got a flat tire... now, Lou could have easily said, "Hey, sorry about that, but it drove fine when you exited the lot." But when we called him, the guy turned around in his own car on his way home, and came to swap out the flat for the spare tire. The following day, he brought the tire to Vista Tire Pros next door, and made sure the tire was checked out and/or replaced before we started rolling again. Now THAT is customer service. I hope to continue to do great business with these guys in the future. read more

I had a great experience here. I had never bought a car on my own before and I was not pressured at all! I felt like I was just walking around the lot with a good friend talking. Once the decision was made I got a deal that my friends who have gone to other places wish they got! Now they are coming here as well! FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY! read more

We needed a car pretty urgently. Woke up came straight here, we're in and out quicker than any dealership I've been to. They are so friendly here let us test drive the Audi that we purchased, did not even come with us told us "get on the freeway and take your time" our sales rep Chris Flores was amazing and so helpful made sure we left the lot with the car at a good monthly payment and a down payment we could afford, I would recommend any other used car place at all. Love coming here ! read more

Thank You Miguel at San Diego Mission Auto Sales!!! I'm a mobile Phlebotomist and have to do a ton of driving and needed a more gas efficient vehicle than my SUV and my credit wasn't too good to boot! Thx to Miguel and his professional service and patience, I got the auto and loan that I could afford! I usually hate dealing with Auto Salespeople but this was my best experience by far! I highly recommend going here for your next vehicle! Thx again! Rick C. read more

Me again. Why? Just to say that even after the sale they take care of us. They found something more they could do for us and didn't hesitate to follow thru. Even met us at the location that could pass this bonus on to us. You should really get to know these guys! read more

I live in San Diego and drove to this dealership which is 40 miles away. My salesman was named Chris Flores and couldn't have been nicer, not pushy and had obviously been in the business awhile because he knew his stuff. I was and am still very pleased with not only the way he handled the transaction but also the dealership. Would most definitely buy another car from them. Robert read more

This is a great Family owned and operated used car lot. The King family are the best. Very professional and easy to work with

Went in to trade my car in for something. Daniel was our salesman & he wouldn't let us leave until he could help us get a car. great customer service, everyone was friendly, offered food & drink, & Daniel did everything he could until we were able to get something we could afford :) read more

Best place to shop for a car!! We've spent hours here because Daniel was certain that my wife and I was going to get a new card regardless of how our credit looked. They fed us, they were nice, he even held our baby a couple times to help us out. I will definitely be going here again to buy our next car! read more

Chris is GREAT!! We purchased 2 vehicles in 12/2015 he was that great! I can't believe it's taken me this long to write this review...I just came across the dealer on Yelp and thought WAIT!! I should share my good story. I was looking to trade in my 2000 Honda Accord for an SUV back in December. We came across this dealer and found a 2008 Nissan Armada in our price range. We walked on the lot to look at the cars and Chris came out being courteous and helpful. We took the car for a spin and wanted to make an offer. Chris was so laid back and NO pressure he asked if we wanted to sit down and look into paperwork...the best thing was he asked us what we wanted to do. Asking how much $ if any are you looking at putting down? He plugged in the down, estimated an interest rate, and turned his screen around to show us what the payments would be. He didn't play a numbers game one bit! Not once! He asked and we said yes or no! When we were walking out we saw a 2008 Toyota Tundra for my husband he told us to take it for s spin and we were hooked. We drove away with 2 cars that night within 4 hrs. No bullshit! THANK U CHRIS! Thank you SD Mission read more

My review based on my experience, I have little faith on car dealers, We all know it's not fun purchasing a car lol, On Friday I was driving out to the beach when I came across a car dealer they had displayed beautiful trucks and it got my attention, on my way back I decided to stop by keep in mind I had no idea that I was going to purchase a truck, I decided to just stop by and kill some time, One of the sales man came out his name was Louis Bucuo, and he asked me how was I doing and if I need any assistance he began to show me a couple trucks we got into a conversation and I told him what I was looking for, I must say that I had such a good experience with S.D Mission Auto Sales, Louis and his partner Chris, were very helpful I walked out with a truck and they gave me such a good deal my experience was very good so if anyone is ever looking for a nice car please consider this dealership they're honest and they put their customer first and that's very important to me and integrity, Thank you very much for such a good experience read more

SD Mission Auto Sales - My New Truck, I Love it, I had a good Experience, Thanks Louis B & Chris 6/2016 - Car Dealers Near Me - Vista, California

It was a cold and blustery San Diego evening... "Hey babe, wanna go look at that mini van?" We went to look at a. Sienna minivan. Our salesman, Chris, was knowledgeable about all of the cars he had, was obviously passionate and informed, a real car guy! He showed us the van, wasn't pushy or pressuring, and just a pleasure to deal with. We both decided we weren't committed to the Sienna. On our way out we saw a beautiful Chrysler 300. So we changed gears and inquired about the car. Rather than think we were a couple of tire kickers, Chris told us about the car, welcomed us to drive it, and we bought the car. He arranged the financing, was efficient and a pleasure to work with. No car sales shenanigans. Just the three things I want to see to make an informed decision: Price, Interest rate, Monthly payment... It all suited our desires so we are happily driving our 300! If you are looking for a good used car and a great buying experience, please go see Chris. read more

This place is awesome. Specifically, when you come in, ask for Chris. He does whatever he can to get you approved with a great vehicle that you actually want, not something that is junk that you wouldn't be happy driving in. My credit isn't the best(in the works of being rebuilt) and Chris made it happen. Definitely recommend this place to anyone! read more

My Dad was in dire need of a car, an affordable, reliable, and more importantly a car he would LOVE! He commuted frequently for his job and needed something with good gas mileage too. He hadn't purchased a car in over 25 years and didn't even know where to start. One thing he did know is he wanted a Ford Focus Hatchback. As soon as I knew that I went straight to Mission Auto Sales website to look at their inventory (I had heard from other friends and family that they had great cars on their lot and could help just about anyone). GUESS what?! They not only had one, but they had two! Both in great condition, with low mileage, at an even better price! We went in on a Saturday afternoon and met with Ron. He was great guys!. Very easy going, not pushy like most sales men, and made my dad feel comfortable and at ease through the whole process. My dad test drove both cars and Ron never made him feel like it was an inconvenience (even after having to move 5 cars to get to the one we wanted :) it's a small lot with lots of great cars). Once we started signing the deal it was such a smooth process. I had cleared my calendar thinking this was going to take all day! NOPE! We were in and out within two hours!!! Financing was simple. Even though he had absolutely NO CREDIT their Manager Lupe was confident he would get approved financing... and he did. I am very satisfied with the process and even more excited to know my dad was able to drive away in a car that will last him many years. Thank you Mission Auto Sales! You treated us like family and I understand how you have such a great reputation with loyal repeat customers. read more

This dealership is too shady! Bait and switch company. Doesn't list miles or prices. Called regarding a Tacoma that was advertised and pictured and got price. Showed up that afternoon and was showed a completely different Tacoma. Told salesman that is not the vehicle in the ad. He went to "check" , "oh that one was sold." What he could not remember that! read more

I don't feel like just about her one of there customers there they make my feel like a client. And that treatment will make me a life long client of theirs. No reason to go anywhere else!! read more

I had an amazing and unforgettable experience at sd mission auto sales. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. After searching high and low for the right car, Louis helped me find the perfect car for my growing family. He really listened to my wants and needs to make sure I left the lot a happy customer. He took the time to make sure my needs were being met according to what I had in mind as well as my budget. I couldn't be happier with Louis and all that he did for me, especially as a first time buyer. I highly recommend checking this place out for your future car needs! read more

Esteban and Chris made my car purchase very easy and comfortable. I was able to trade-in my old vehicle with fair deal and walked out with a new car on the same day! I got financing through them as well and they were very patient and helpful through the whole process.

I'll definitely come back here for my next vehicle and recommend to everyone who's looking to sell or purchase a car. read more
