I have been shopping for a 2025 or 2026 Ford Maverick (Lariat Hybrid or Tremor) in Oxford White for…read morea couple of weeks, so I know this market pretty well. Early on Monday, June 15, 2026, before the dealership opened, I came across a Facebook Marketplace listing for that truck, lightly used, at Mullahey Ford, priced at $28,840. Facebook showed the ad had been posted Sunday afternoon, and I contacted the dealer within about 22 minutes of their Monday opening -- so the vehicle was almost certainly still available. The salesperson, Charles, told me the deal was real and said he would follow up in about 30 minutes. I clearly confirmed I wanted to buy the truck at the listed price. When Charles called back roughly 30 minutes later, he said the vehicle had already been sold -- hard to believe given the dealership had been open only minutes. When I checked Mullahey Ford's own website, the same truck was (and still is) listed at $39,080. Charles described the $28,840 figure as an "internet error in pricing." I've heard about dealers using this tactic to get people in and claiming it's an inexplicable error. It's inexcusable, and according to Ai and the California DMV, Illegal. I understand pricing mistakes can happen. What concerns me is the sequence: an advertised price, a confirmation that the deal was "real," and then -- within half an hour -- both a claim that the vehicle was sold and the same truck still listed at a price more than $10,000 higher on the dealer's own site. The Facebook ad shows the truck as a 2025 and Lariat is misspelled as Lariet. The dealer website shows the same truck as a 2026 with Lariat spelled correctly. I compared the mileage, color, options, images and it's the same truck. Unfortunately, the dealer left the VIN out of the Facebook ad, but I was able to find the listing on their website. As a buyer acting in good faith, I found the experience disappointing and would caution others to get any advertised price confirmed in writing before relying on it or trusting the dealership. I am composing a complaint with the California DMV, as this seems to be a clear example of bait-and-switch.

Mullahey Ford in Arryo Grande does it again, by bringing "the fun" back to the car buying…read moreexperience! This was not my first "go around" here (previously I purchased a used Mini Cooper JCW) but I am happy to report to you, my dearYelp review Readers, that purchasing my latest vehicle (a used Ford F-250 Super Duty Truck) was quite simply "a pleasure". I walked onto the lot not expecting to find a reasonably priced truck (ya...prices today are uncomfortably high...for everything, but especially for vehicles) and there she was...a "just reduced"white F-250 Super Duty Truck, waiting for me to find her. Actually...it was the Mullahey Ford Representative, Jim Beckman, who steered me in the right direction. Jim was exceptional...personable, knowledgeable, very "laidback", friendly and funny. Due to these qualities , our rapport was instantaneous. If you end up looking for a vehicle at this Dealership...find him...it will be worth your time! Within minutes of the introduction to this F-250...my family and I were on a test drive. Needless to say, it went very well. Getting back to the Dealership, Jim was all smiles and asked how the test drive went. I replied...well, it was okay (when in fact, it went fabulously). We both laughed...we also both knew...I wanted that truck! Before purchasing the truck, Jim allowed me to do my "due diligence" and let me take the vehicle to my local mechanic for a total inspection (nice!), which resulted in this F-250 Super Duty Truck getting a clean bill of health and the recommendation from my mechanic of..."at that price, BUY IT!" So....I did! Adrian in the Finance Dept., got me a decent rate for the small loan I needed after my down payment and the deal was done within 4 days (Saturday - Wednesday). The communication, regarding every step of the process was constant...I always knew what was going on. The few concerns that I had with the truck were taken care of, again...with a smile and I am delighted with my purchase. On this occasion (as before), in this Yelper's opinion, Mullahey Ford in Arryo Grande "brought the goods" so to speak, with the right vehicle, price, service and of course Jim Beckman...in order to truly earn this "highly recommend - looking for a vehicle, come on down and have a look" 5 Star review!

On 3/5/26 I was told that I was approved, I was even told to start making my plans and what time I would be there on Sunday. I made plans around that and was under the impression that the vehicle was essentially reserved for me. Alex was going to call me today 3/6/26 to go over the approval but then proceeds to inform me that the truck has been sold. So now I get to walk away with nothing but an inquiry on not only my credit report but my wife's as well. This felt very unprofessional and like a complete waste of my time. If a customer is approved and told a vehicle will be ready for pickup, the dealership should honor that. I would have appreciated basic courtesy and transparency in being told they would not hold the vehicle whether approved or not. Overall, this experience left a bad impression, and I would be hesitant to trust this dealership again.

When I first looked at the Jeep Compass' they were so dirty I actually took a step back and asked…read moreFernando if these were for sell. He kinda laughed it off and said yes. I wish so bad I would have left right then. I knew what I was getting before I got there so I wasn't "sold" the car. With the thickness of the dirt I asked him, " is this the blue one?". He said yes, it was the blue one. What he SHOULD have said was " this is the phantom blue". Then I would have known it wasn't just blue because phantom means an illusion. He said if I wanted to test drive it he would have it rinsed off then directed me to the side of the building that was like a giant carport, out of the sun in heavy shade. I test drove it, bought it as planned then he has the car washed and brought it back around to the heavy shade where I put the contents of my old car to the new "blue" one. I drove off and didn't get home to look at it again until late afternoon. I thought it looked kind of weird, the color of it but didn't really see the true color until the next day. If it's in the direct sunlight it's a BLUE/GREEN color with GLITTER in the paint! It's the UGLIEST color I have ever seen and I am STUCK with it!!! I have felt sick to my stomach everyday since. I was robbed of my new car happy experience! But wait, there's more! I waited to get my loan info in the mail as I was told so that I could get autopay set up. 3 days later I started getting a HUGE amount of paper mail with loan offers, like between 3 & 5 EVERYDAY then my phone starts blowing up. Voicemail after voicemail EVERYDAY about loans! Nothing was about the actual loan so 15 days later I call the finance dept. I was told I had forgotten to sign something! I get it emailed to me, sign and return then later on I get an email saying I needed to send them a utility bill with my address WHICH I ALREADY DID the day I bought it!! 3 days later I get the proper loan information. This was now 18 DAYS after I bought my ugly car! I HATE MY CAR! So from the car porters that don't know how to do their jobs to the sales person who doesn't even know his colors to the idiots in finance, which boils down to WHO IS IN CHARGE at Santa Maria Jeep?! The General Manager. Wow you guys! Just wow! Also to add: I didn't even get Jeep floor mats they just put in generic cheap ones that you can buy anywhere for $20!
