Located in Davis off Chiles Road, Auto Gem shares a building and lot with Sac River Auto (visible from I-80 East). We were looking for a used car for my teenage son and originally came to see a few cars at Sac River Auto. When we pulled into the parking lot, we were actually greeted by employees of Auto Gem. They did tell us that they shared a lot with Sac River Auto and a directed us in the direction of the cars that were interested in despite not being their cars for sale. Auto Gem did not try to solicit any business as we were originally interested in the cars at Sac River Auto. Unfortunately we were not interested in the cars at Sac River Auto, but fortunately I decided to just go next door to Auto Gem and see what cars they had available. They have a banner that says "Best Cars Under $10,000" and guess what, they did have a good amount of cars under $10,000. Moe (General Manager) who runs the Auto Gem dealership was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. After looking at a few cars, we ran across a Chevy Volt which we decided to test drive. When we came back we decided to look at a few more cars, but my son seems to gravitate towards the Chevy Volt. Moe was very transparent with the cars and disclosed what is known about the cars. CarFax reports were shown upon request for each car. While we were deciding to purchase or not, Moe told us to take the car out for another test drive if we wanted to (which we didn't, but was a nice offer). While examining the car, I pointed out that the passenger side door hinge was not working properly and that there was condensation in the taillights (1 had a crack with water inside) and Moe offered to replace both taillights and door hinge at their expense if we purchased the car. We decided on purchasing the car. They offer $200 off the price of the car if paid cash, check or credit card (3% charge if you use credit card). Since they were going to pay for the taillights and door hinge, they were not able to offer the $200 cash discount. We took the car home and a few days later, I got a call that the parts were in and I could bring the car in to have the parts replaced (by the mechanic shop next door) which is why I'm back here today. The repairs took about 1.5 hrs (we waited in the office on comfortable leather couches) and we were on our way. If you want an affordable car from a dealer that provides great service and is not pushy, you should definitely check out Auto Gem! The paperwork was done very quickly (~30 minutes)! The General Manager, Moe is great! This is one of the best auto buying experiences I have ever had! read more
