    Tire

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]I'm very disappointed with my experience at this dealer ship I bought my vehicle here and was told my tires were covered under warranty[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. When one of my tires had an issue, I contacted the dealer for help -- but they refused to honor the warranty or provide any real assistance. Instead of standing behind their promise, they gave me the runaround and left me to pay out of pocket. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I expected better customer service and honesty from a dealership that claims to care about its customers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I won't be returning, and I don't recommend this place to anyone looking for reliable post-sale support.

    be careful I bought 4 tires from them 5 months ago for $2,225, and one had a defect. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I called before driving 1 hour and 40 minutes, and they told me to come for a replacement and just pay labor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I took a day off work and kept my son home from school, but when I arrived, they refused to replace it, saying they didn't know who answered the phone. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I ended up wasting 4 hours for nothing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Be careful -- they don't stand behind their warranty, and you'll just lose your money

    Mileage shows 4242 miles and car had over 5000 miles. Sketchy!

    Beware of this incredibly sketchy unprofessional dealership. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Especially a Mercedes dealer where you would expect them to at least meet the basic standards of customer service![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Were we set up for a Bait and Switch? We found a car (GLB 250) on Edmunds.com with low mileage and contacted the dealer. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We had an appointment with Manager Fredy Giragodian to see the car.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We cancelled our dinner plans with friends for the evening and drove 1 1/2 hours to the dealership. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When we got there no one was on the lot and no one greeted us.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Finally someone came across the street and asked if we needed help because Fredy was busy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] When we told him the car we were there to see he told us the car was sold - and wanted to see if we were interested in looking at other cars. [[HIGHLIGHT]]If in fact it was sold - and I'm not convinced it was sold or that they even have the car tor sale - then why not at least the professional courtesy of a simple phone call or text to save us the long drive - just to be disappointed?[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]And Fredy didn't even have the decency to come out and tell us himself.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This is how he manages the business? So why my concerns that they didn't have the car in the first place (or didn't intend to sell it at the listed price)? And why my concerns it was just a Bait/Switch scheme to get us on the lot to buy another car? According to the listing at Edmunds and the Simonson web site the CarFax report shows the car had been at the dealership for 2 months. Unsold and with numerous price drops. So we contact them and change all our plans and come to the dealership within 3 hours and the car has now magically sold in those few hours? Also there was a 20% discrepancy between the listed mileage of 4242 miles) and the Carfax mileage of 5026 miles (see photos). Wrong mileage?? Again really sketchy!! I would never buy a car from this dealership!

    I have become a huge fan of this Mercedes Dealership and the service advisor I've been fortunate to work with!

    This is my second time going to Abe and his team at Trade-In Solutions. First time was selling my…read morefirst ever car after college and now many years later - returning to sell my CLS 53 AMG. Initially I had planned to sell through Carmax, Carvana and Bidbus. All of those options fell very short of my expectations numbers wise, especially Bidbus! The dealership I got paired with tried to scam me with extremely shady practices so I left promptly. Which lead me back to Abe and his team, I made an appointment online and was seen a couple days after, Abe greeted me after the appraisal and gave me a very fair number. He was also very transparent on the value of the car and what their price would be when they decide to sell it. Very rarely are car dealers so accommodating and kind when it comes to this business so I am very weary. Thank you Abe! I'll be back again in no time.

    I found them by accident on Auto Trader and honestly had no expectations. Called on a Wednesday,…read moreand Jess picked up -- a real person, no machine, no hold music. She was warm, helpful, and never once tried to push me toward anything. I told her I wanted to come in Friday and asked if they could hold the car. She said yes, no deposit required. That alone told me a lot about how these people operate. When I got there, the boss was around too -- relaxed, straightforward, no pressure. The young guy who took me on the test drive was great -- you can tell he genuinely loves what he does. That kind of enthusiasm is rare, and it made the whole experience easy. And at the front desk, I was greeted by a young lady whose name -- I promise I am not making this up -- is Jennifer Lopez. Lol. I bought a 2021 Tesla Model Y. When I got home and ran the numbers myself, I was off from their figures by three dollars. Three. No hidden fees, no surprise add-ons -- just taxes and DMV, exactly as discussed. They also buy and sell used vehicles, electric cars especially, so whether you're buying or selling it's worth giving them a call. Couldn't be happier with the experience. Would absolutely go back and would recommend them to anyone tired of the usual dealership runaround. Thank you to Jess, to the boss, to the test drive guy, and to Jennifer Lopez -- you're all great.

After seeing similar complaints in reviews, I was hesitant to continue. Thankfully, I gave it one more shot and was connected with Mo, and I'm so glad I did. Mo was respectful, honest, funny, and never pushy. He made the entire process comfortable and easy. I also worked with Fred in finance, who was equally kind and straightforward. The dealership is beautiful, the process was smooth, and I drove away with my dream car. While the initial interaction was disappointing, Mo completely turned the experience around. I'd recommend Lexus Santa Monica -- just make sure you work with the right people.

    It is incredibly disappointing to have to write this review…read more My husband and I visited this Lexus dealership fully prepared to purchase a vehicle. We both have excellent credit and were serious buyers. Unfortunately, we never even had the opportunity to begin the process because no one assisted us. We stood outside in the sun for more than 30 minutes and, during that time, asked two different staff members if someone could help us. Despite our requests, no one ever came. Meanwhile, another family who arrived after us was greeted and assisted almost immediately. Whether intentional or not, the experience left us feeling invisible and questioning whether we were treated differently because we are Latino. No customer should ever leave a dealership wondering if their ethnicity played a role in how they were treated. We ultimately left without ever speaking to a salesperson or receiving any assistance. Purchasing a luxury vehicle should come with a level of professionalism, respect, and equal treatment for every customer. Sadly, that was not our experience here.

    A Sincere thanks - 2016 Honda CR-V Touring purchase…read more Dear Honda Santa Monica Team, We are writing to express our sincere gratitude for the exceptional experience we had purchasing our 2016 Honda CR-V Touring. A huge shout-out to Eddie Chan, Victor Spencer, and Alfonso. You three made the entire process seamless, professional, and genuinely welcoming. We especially appreciate the extra effort you put into structuring the deal to fit our budget--that monthly savings provides invaluable peace of mind for our family. After exploring many options, we chose this specific CR-V because it represents the "sweet spot" of Honda's engineering. Finding a Touring trim with only 42k miles was like finding a needle in a haystack. We value its reputation for bulletproof reliability, top-tier safety, and an interior that makes my daily commute a pleasure. Given how well this vehicle was maintained, we are confident it will be a reliable partner for my professional life for many years to come. Thank you again, Eddie, Victor, and Alfonso, for making us feel like part of the Honda family. May God Bless All of you!! Best regards, Victor and Ellaine Dela Cruz
