Bait and Switch tactics. Called about a vehicle I was interested in. Spoke with Chris for 2022 Mazda 3 Hatchback. He pushed me to drive hundred of miles today to purchase the car. I asked him what the price was out the door and he instead asks me "how much do you want to pay?". After 3 hours of negotiations he told me the car was "sold" when he didn't like my offer. He never showed me the sticker price nor mentioned it. Instead, he's asking the customer how much "you want to pay". What kind of dealership would allow this? I recommend you take your business elsewhere or avoid dealing with Chris. read more

Thank you to Phillip for taking 5 minutes out of his busy schedule to help me change the battery in my key fob! I YouTubed how to do it but still was a little afraid of breaking it so I stopped by the dealership. Thank you!! read more

When I visited the dealership on, they initially offered me $14,600 for my trade. I asked for $17,000. At one point the salesman came back and said they would do $16,000 for the trade. I reviewed the numbers and they had raised the price on the new car by the same amount that they raised the trade. I feel that this was deceptive. He left me one voicemail on January 1 and two voicemails on January 2, saying he thought they could do a little better. I returned his call after the 3rd voicemail. He simply asked if I was still interested. Then he said he could talk to the manager the next day (today) and see what he could do. He said he was starting at 1PM, and I would hear from him between 1 and 2. Today a little after 1PM, I received a phone call, email and text message from another person named Marisa. The texts below are with the original salesperson and then with Marisa. I live about an hour away, and I believe she was trying to deceive me into driving there by implying my deal had been improved. The part at the end is most concerning. I was ready to take this if they had just done a little better for me. I think they are dishonest and they have not treated me with respect as a customer. read more

I just have to point out the facts... The first sales representative I worked with has always been very helpful and attentive. However after all sales and trade in were finalized, I couldn't get a response back from anyone but the first sales rep. Let me explain in further detail. I purchased my vehicle and waited sometime to get my car, which is understandable given the way of the world these days. Once I received my vehicle, I noticed micro scratches on my car. I walked around and there were quite a bit of them. I raised my concern and the sales rep told me he will go ahead and speak to his manager about the scratches to see if they can buff them off. I had my car for about a month now, I traded in my other vehicle in late May. My other vehicle's financing company was calling me telling me that I'm passed due, I called to explain the situation and they told me they haven't heard or received anything from Mazda yet. After some back and forth there was a late fee added, I called Mazda a few times regarding this and received not call back even though the reps answering the phones mentioned they will leave a message for me. I finally get a hold of someone, a financing manager, and I explain the situation of my previous vehicle. The financing manager laughs at me and tells me I should've still paid my other cars payment. I signed my car over to Mazda in late May, I felt like this was unprofessional to even comment about. After calling a few more times, I finally get ahold of a sales manager. I explain the situation, he gives me tracking for the pay off check. The check was delivered two weeks ago, and he explains to me that I need to call the other financing company and speak with them about what's happening. At this point I feel like I'm jumping through hoops to fix what shouldn't have been an issue in the first place. After all said and done, I had the financing company waive the late fee and we cut it close just before it would've impacted my credit. The sales manager offers me to buff out my scratches on my vehicle, and schedules a day for me to go. I arrive at 8:30 and don't like until 3:30, my sales rep was able to get them to fill my gas for the wait and the whole situation with the scratches. I spoke to the sales manager, thanked him for his help on the scratches. But that's all that was done, I'm still upset about the whole pay off situation and nothing has been done to make up for the amount of time I had to take in order to correct the situation myself. I spoke to the sales manager in regards to this, to see if they can even give me a discount on tint or whatever. The manager refused and told me that he can't get the business office to approve this because it something that is worked into the contract... In conclusion, I had a bad experience so far. Again I thanked the sales manager for the scratches being corrected, but at the same time this isn't a favor this was a correction to an issue I had with a brand new car. The pay off situation with the other car, I don't feel like customers should have to worry about late fees, credit impacts, or even deal with the last financing company when you already sold and signed over the vehicle over a month ago. read more

I can sum up our experience at this place in 3 words, bait and switch. We found a car on cargurus.com that we liked at a decent price. We took it on a test drive and agreed to let them run our credit. Then when we saw the price, it was about $1600 over what had been advertised. We were told $1000 of that was for a security system, which they eventually agreed to remove. Then, we finally realized they were trying to sell us a different car than the one listed. They went and looked, but, surprise, it was nowhere to be found, only the car with the higher price was available, and no interest in negotiating on the price. I would think that maybe this was an honest mistake but the car is still on cargurus.com, still on their website, so they're still putting out the bait to try to lure people in to buy a car that isn't there, apparently hoping to sell one at a higher price. They wasted half of our day on this so obviously when I do buy a car, it won't be at Spreen Mazda, and at this point, it probably won't be a Mazda at all. I'll let the BBB deal with the business practices here. read more

Very disappointed, I Was ready to purchase a Mazda, filled out the trade in info on Spreen Mazda web site, was given a range of trade in amount. Salesman contacted me within 5 minutes to try to sell me a car, sent him great detail of trade in with photos and videos, car only has 1270 miles and is in perfect new car showroom condition. Salesman was to get back to me shortly with approx trade in value, before I went there, waited several days with no response. I called him and he said hold on and let me speak to manager, came back with a $10k less than the lowest value stated on the trade in allowance the web site gave me. I feel the condition of the car should be at the highest value on KBB report the ran. If they don't honor the range of the KBB trade in info, they shouldn't use that on there web site. This seems to be very deceptive advertising and also poor communication from Spreen Mazda staff. I would look somewhere else to purchase a car. read more

I just recently purchased a 2019 Mazda Cx-5 from this dealership, with the help of Dario. Everyone was so nice and welcoming and made the process of purchasing a car so easy!

Had me and my boyfriend chuckling the whole time! 10 out of 10 would recommend! read more

This is why must people associate car dealers as scum bags. After taking to Tracey on the phone and gave her an EXACT number offer for a car they listed online I went down. I said in the phone very specifically I have enough money to do $14500. If the car is $14501 or more I can't buy it, sorry I just don't have enough. It was a long ride and told her I'm not making the drive unless it's something we could realistically do.. She says they could make it work and on my way. After being there for several hours after a test ride and then being offered a very low number on my trade i said I understand and had to leave to be minutes later texted and offered another $700 to put me where I could once again make it happen I turned around. They start drawing up paperwork for me. First one had like $3000+ of added warranties, maintenance whatever. I was like, I already told you I don't want this. Tracey says I'm sorry it's just part of the dance. I said that's fine, then draws up paperwork again. Still added stuff. I was like come on, I worked from 5am- 2, it's now about 6pm. I'm tired and I'm like, can wert please stop, I just want to get home to my wife and dog. So they get it right. No more extras. But the price isn't $14500, it's$15998. To which she says, they are all in on online pricing, there's nothing they can do. 3 hours earlier on the phone she said they could make it work. Now at paperwork time, nope we don't negotiate this prices. THEN WHY AM I EVEN HERE? A simple no on the phone and I wouldn't have wanted 3 hours of my life. Scum bag dealer. Social distance yourself from this place. Three proof in texts as well provided. read more

We Love Mazda cars but not this dealership. We shopped online and received a trade-in price for our car which was extremely low mileage and in excellent shape. When we started the negotiation process on the new car they offered us $6000 less than the value we were given online on their website. It was the old bait and switch. We asked why and they said the price we were given online was for cars in excellent condition. We asked what was not excellent about ours and they were speechless. Then when we said the payments were too high they left and came back with lower payments but a longer loan time. It was then we realized we were not dealing with our kind of people and we left. I highly recommend Mazdas but we will never recommend Spreen. read more

BAIT & SWITCH DEALERSHIP, LIES & DECEPTION! This dealership should receive 0 stars, it is a horribly dishonest dealership using false advertising, pushy closer tactics & deceptive answers to sell cars. The sole reason we walked away from this dealership is because they advertise a cheaper price on their website and do not disclose they have added about $2500 of dealer add-ons (security system & appearance package) that cannot be removed. These are added to the price but NOT DISCLOSED until signing the contract. If you choose to purchase a car from Spreen Mazda, remember you have to ask what the REAL price of the vehicle is. I would never do business here, this was truly the worst car buying experience I have had in my 40+ years of buying cars. The owners should be ashamed of what they have created & allow to take place. read more

This car dealership is just like so many other scum places that sell cars. They go over the contract super fast. Say one price that end up being another. My brother and I asked numerous time what the full amount of the car would be and they ended up with a totally different figure in the end. This is a RIP-OFF place that will take advantage of you over and over!!! Stay away and avoid getting screwed!!! You can't trust anyone now a days read more

Wyatt was an excellent rep and made the buying process much more smooth and easier than expected. He is excellent at customer service, communicating, and is just a friendly person overall. Although I had some hesitancies at first about how to approach buying a new car, Wyatt was very patient and understanding, and also took the extra time to explain all the things I was unsure about. I recommend this dealership and hope to continue working with them if needed. read more

DO NOT COME HERE! The customer service here is subpar, they are not friendly or helpful. I highly encourage you to look elsewhere when purchasing a car. I personally regret ever coming here and regret even more buying a car from here. I overpaid for a car I felt pressured to buy. Be careful with the positive reviews, do your own research, and do yourself a favor and don't make the same mistake I did by coming here. read more

I dealt with Marcelino Marin, Jimmy Palacios, and Jose Montiel. 10/10 customer service. 10/10 timeliness. 10/10 responsiveness. 10/10 calmness and kindness. I would 10/10 recommend them in helping you with purchasing your car. I would also go back and purchase another car with them, they took care of me. read more

The Jose Montiel, Sales Manager is not honest!!! He is rude and disrespectful to the healthcare industry! He says that they honor the Military because they save lives! Our doctors, nurses, and healthcare employees saves lives everyday! Don't know how he could be a manager!! I do not recommend this dealership at all. I wouldn't waste my value time. I drove to Cardinale Mazda Corona CA and they gave me an awesome deal! Their whole team starting from the first contact person was very professional and made me feel like they were sincere to help me find the car I wanted. The sales manager, will she knew how to make things happen and the financial department: You guys are the best in your business! Best customer services!!! You might want to drive a little farther if you want to experince Excellent Service at Cardinale Mazda Corona CA. read more

2 Months Later...They are still harassing me! Do not give them your contact information, because they will not stop calling and texting. I have blocked 4 phone numbers and will have to contact the Better Business Bureau to make this daily harassment stop. I went up to look at a Mazda 2 months ago, and the cars were in bad shape. Informed Johnathan I was not interested in buying any of the cars on the lot. 2 months later, 4 phones # later, and 48 phone messages, and 54 text later and he is still contacting me!!!

My wife and I arrived at Spreen Mazda after a long drive and a promise that a certain car (CX5 Carbon w/Black Interior) was being held for us! We quickly found out that wasn't the case. Long story short, we were set to leave (actually in our car) when Matt Rock found out about this, he came out to us and promised he could find the exact car we wanted at the exact same price they had agreed to. He apologized for the mix up and promised to handle the cause of the mistake. He assigned Marcelino to us (he was excellent) and they found our car and bottom line we are extremely happy! It's not how you start, it's how you finish and they finished strong, all the way thru the financing process. I would definitely recommend Spreen! read more

On 07/12/20 we purchased our very first modern Mazda. Emily and Jimmy(manager) are some of the most helpful people that have ever met, they made our experience of buying a vehicle during this pandemic one of most impressive and easiest we've ever experienced. We love our 2020 CX-9 GT! I highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you! read more

My experience at Spreen was excellent. Our new car is spectacular! I know the CX90 is due out soon, but you can get a great deal on the CX9 now because of it. 0% financing, thousands off the msrp.... Tracy, our salesperson was phenomenal. I would go out of my way to buy another car from her. No hard-core sales pitch on things I didn't want, just a very simple easy transaction. When we come back for our 4th Mazda, I hope it goes just as well. Cheers! And a shout-out for Destiny who reached out after the sale and provided great customer service! read more

Avoid ALL Spreen. They use the same tricks to take your hard earned money. **Hidden add-ons, Bait and Switch, Horrible negotiation skill** We went to buy a used Sienna today. The car was extremely dirty and the battery was dead. They told us the car actually has "Clear coatings and Security system installed" (btw, you CANNOT verify this. DO NOT buy into this) and the price is different from the online listed price. Told them our out the door budget (no low balling, reasonable offer w/o add ons, not asking any discounts) but they kept wasting our time. We even increased our budget by 2K but they still won't work with us because of THE ADD ONS!! I had the exact same experience at Spreen Honda 5 years ago. Found the car online, drove there, the car is gone lol They presented a different car with all the features. Ended up buying a car somewhere else. So, save your time and DO NOT drive all the way to Spreen even if the price looks good. They don't honor any pricing over the phone anyway. Save yourself. *Danny was our salesperson who was super nice and chill. We did not have a good experience with the sales manager, Jose (in person and over the phone). read more

The service here was immaculate, I had the pleasure of being assisted by Dario Mendez & Staysi Valencia. Dario was very helpful and made sure to get me an amazing deal that nowhere else could help me with. Staysi strove to get me approved as well and even helped with a great payment plan. Overall i highly recommend this dealership to anyone who is looking for certified Mazda's. You will not be disappointed by their professionalism and eagerness to work with you. Defiantly will be coming back in the future. read more

Spreen Mazda - Dario's Business Card - Car Dealers Near Me - Loma Linda, California

Worst dealership experience I've ever had hands down, was up sold on a remote start feature on a brand new cx30 that the car didn't even had, had to bring it in to get installed which was totally fine. We call before going in because we live hours away from this dealership to see how long it would take to get installed and we're told two hours so we get there at 10 :30 and expect to get it done by 12:30 .Two hours later they tell us another hour because they have to make the wiring harness which is understandable sometimes things take longer. After 3 hours (1:30) they tell us two more hours to install the wiring harness which is irritating because we're stuck at the dealership, but we don't have a choice since we have no car and are hours away from home. At 5 (3:30)hours we are done with being there and try and just get our car back we don't want the remote start anymore but they tell us they just started installing the wiring harness and need to program the software.At this point we just need to get home and get a loaner car from them because they don't think it'll get finished by the end of the day. We get our car delivered the next day and when the service guy shows my girlfriend how to start the car it's all through an app, and we don't get the key fob for the remote start. All we wanted was to get the key fob for the remote start and the dealership tells us there is no fob for it and it's only through the app. When I heard that I called the service department and ask about the remote starts and they told me that they are back ordered and they already preordered them. After I get home from work one of the sales managers (Jose) has called my girlfriend talking down to her and trying to tell her there's no remote start and she must of not of understood how remote starts worked and that there was no fob for it and trying to gaslight her saying she was ok with not getting one earlier. By far one of the most unprofessional and slimy thing I've heard someone do to a customer. At this point I won't be buying my next cars from this dealership and will be making a formal complaint to the Senior VP of retail operations about this experience, especially for how much we are spending on this car. read more

Wanted to take a minute to thank Ruben and Brian , the you g salesman at Spreen. Took 2-3 visits since we were hard hagglers and dealing with various dealers, but their customer service and willingness to work with us, even at 10:30pm help us to decide to buy from spreen. It's a sellers market but we are happy and excited with our new cx30. Thank you!!!! This is the 5th car we have purchase from Spreen dealers and it won't be the last. read more

Buying a car in this market is not an easy task. I contacted 10+ dealers in So. Cal. and Spreen Mazda was only of the only ones willing to discount the price of the car below MSRP. Dario was excellent in all his communications with us, attentive, polite, transparent, and professional. Unlike salesman in other dealerships, he was clearly interested in making sure we were happy with our purchase and that the deal was to our satisfaction. I can't recommend Spreen Mazda enough, they made the whole process seamless and stress free. Dario did a fantastic job, I highly recommend asking for him the next time you're in the market for a Mazda. read more

Edit: They're so much worse than I gave them credit for. Their service department sucks as much as the sales department. John Hine Mazda in Temecula made up for Spreen a million times over. I am very sure you will be MUCH happier at John Hine. I know I am. read more

Despite some negative reviews... I had an awesome experience. Spreen Mazda helped me get the exact car I wanted (2019 Mazda 3 Premium Hatchback), for the price I was comfortable with. NO BS. So, I had a lease that was due in November that I originally got from Riverside Mazda... but Spreen Mazda helped me out and made the entire process extremely easy and surprisingly quick. Plus, Spreen Mazda had much more variety then Riverside Mazda and the service was way better for me. I dealt with Traci, Giovanni, and Gavin... super easy to work with! Thank you Spreen Mazda! read more

Just had a baby and needed a new family vehicle. Spreen Mazda understood my situation how difficult it is to go places with a newborn. Gave me a quote over the phone and all I had to do was visit sign the document and pick up the vehicle. Hassle free. The best car buying experience ever. From Adrianna's excellent quote, Tracy's welcome and process, to Gavin's smooth transaction. Keep up the good work. read more

I had an appointment to buy a Mazda3 sedan Red and when i got there they brought out a Gray one. Then when they finally brought out the right one, they wanted me to buy all the dealer add-ons. The payments were going to be $655 a month for 60 months. I said no thank you and left. They didn't seem too interested in selling me the car. Awful dealership, stay away read more

The Spreen auto group in general is terrible. I attempted to buy two cars in less than two months. Walked away from Spreen Honda (bought a new car art Riverside Honda). Was then turned away from Spreen Mazda (bought new car at Mazda of Orange). Buyers can get a better deal elsewhere. I guess they make so much money no need to negotiate. read more

Had a great experience buying my car here! Went in just for a test drive and Victor helped me trade my old car in and drive off with a brand new CX-30. He was super honest about pricing and the financing, not once did I have a suspicion that he was trying to tack on extra charges without me knowing. That's more than I can say about my last car buying experience. If you need a car, Victor is your guy. Big ups to him for his honesty and solid customer service. This is my first Mazda, and I've only had it for about two weeks but I can say I 100% love it. read more

Worst car buying experience ever!!!!! It started out ok when I started communicating with their internet sales staff. We virtually agreed on the price of the CX5 Grand Touring and the trade in value for my car via email. Then things started falling apart. I agreed to drive an hour to meet the sales staff and complete the deal. After our drive when we got to the dealership no one knew who we were and the internet sales person wasn't at work. When I voiced my displeasure they assigned a very junior sales person to us and we began the process. We were handed off to the finance dept. After we signed all of the papers and it was time for payment we put a small portion on AMEX and the balance on a personal check. We were told that we could not have the car till the check clears. I then informed them I was not going to drive back and forth to pick up the car after the check cleared. They agreed to have the car delivered to me once the check cleared. 23 days after the purchase and after many phone calls by me, they finally delivered the car. Prior to delivery I asked the sales manager to kindly send somebody to deliver the car that knows all about it and could brief us on all of the features and explain how to use stuff. They sent a young fellow who was very nice but was clueless about the car. He couldn't explain how to use the car's GPS nor could he get it to work properly himself. I still don't know how to use it. There were numerous other things he did not know but don't have time to list them all. 'When he left I asked him to have the manager (Jose) call me the next day. I still have not had a call back from him to this very day. They just don't care about their customers. If I knew how I was going to be treated I would have taken their price for the car and seen if the local dealer would match it. read more

Worst customer service on the planet! I drove over 100 miles to purchase a Mazda CX-5 for price agreed to over the phone. Was assured the car would be clean and all paperwork ready to go when I arrived. Upon arrival the car is not clean and we had to wait almost two hours to get to financing. When I get to financing the price changes when I asked for the interest rates advertised on website and the sales person. Was told financing and rebate cannot go together. When asked to talk to manager he could not be bothered to come out of his office to talk about the misrepresentation regarding price and financing. After a lot of back and forth they were not willing to come down to price agreed to and financing rate advertised in their website so we walked out. Before we leave the manager finally comes out only to tell us he cannot come down in price. What a waste of time. DO NOT GO TO SPREEN MAZDA!!! read more

My husband and I are exceptionally pleased with the service and value we received at Spreen Mazda! We got a great deal on a brand new 2019 Mazda CX-5 and we're looking forward to many happy miles driving it.

These two ladies are a strong part of the reason we will be recommending Spreen to our friends and family. read more

I found the Mazda3 that I was looking for through CarGurus. The car was located at Spreen Mazda in Loma Linda. My wife and I entered the showroom and were greeted with a smile by Sales Associate Roger Muntain. We described to him the car we were looking for and he led to the car. We asked a lot of questions about the car and Roger was very knowledgeable bout the model and provided us with a CarFax report on this specific car. We took a test drive and Roger was friendly and engaging without being nosy or pushy. I felt like we were all old friends by the time we finished the test drive. My wife and I informed him that we wanted to purchase the vehicle. He sold us the car at the price listed...no hassle. Their financing department set up the purchase through our credit union and we drove the car home. Kudos to Roger Muntain and Spreen Mazda. read more

Was quoted for a price online. talked to the lady about a price she was able to come to, I asked if she could do me a favor and send an email with what was quoted. She did, and it literally stated that price with JUST taxes and licensing. I said that I have offers in Orange County and am only willing to drive out 1 1/2-2 hours if I'm to get the agreed upon price. No extra addons, no after market, etc. The rest is history. Do yourself a favor and read every one star review and KNOW that they are not fabricating anything. This is what this dealership is. Anyone who was happy with their experience probably just accepted the extra 3-4-5 thousand they add on top saying it cannot be taken off. I know dealerships do this. But not to the extent of this one. I'm still flabbergasted at my experience. I've been a yelp member for about 10 years and have never left a review. I'm genuinely just disappointed, and also intrigued, that there are people on this earth that treat people this way. Anyway. Any other dealership... Any other. read more

Went in with my daughter to buy a used Mazda advertised online for $15,000. Emily was really nice and informative and did a great job showing us the car. Then we sat down and starting working on purchasing the car. They offered us lower than what we expected for our trade-in but that wasn't what killed the deal. Jose, the sales manager, is what killed it. Next thing I know I am looking at a piece of paper with a payments in the 300s because they added all these add-ons.They didn't bother giving a breakdown on each add-on or even a total price. We told them we didn't want any add-ons. We wanted the car as is for the advertised price of $15k. Now Jose comes to tell us that 2 of the add-ons are already on the car, which brought the total to the sticker price on the car, which was about $21k. I say "about" because we still weren't given the out-the-door price, just a payment amount. That's right..... all their used cars have sticker prices way more then their online prices. Then Jose begins say he can remove the add-ons if we don't want to pay for them. No I expect to pay the advertised price for the car as we test drove it. Then he proceeds to say why would he give us the add-ons for free if we don't see the value in it? My response was why didn't you add it into the price, if there was value it in? I am also curious how they are going to remove a protected coat on the paint but I didn't even bother asking because by this point I walked out. This place is shady. I only buy used cars and I have never ever had any dealership present a purchase like this. More people have posted about this same thing on cargurus.com read more
