I hate writing bad reviews, but since I just dropped more than 20K on a car with a dodgy transmission I feel compelled to offer up a warning to potential customers. I bought a 2017 Jeep Renegade with 39k mileage a month ago. Internet pricing was 14k. Actual price ended up being over 20 (not including financing fees) because of warrantees, etc that they tack on. Car was in the shop within 3 weeks after almost having an accident when the automatic gears got stuck in traffic. It also began kicking and shifting rough. It was sold to me with a recalled engine and transmission problems that are downright dangerous, BUT Honda says they are not responsible for any of that, despite not having even made my first payment.
Under the Lemon Law, I have to go through the Jeep manufacturer now. Turns out the market value of this car is @ 11,000$. Best case scenario, if I am ever refunded by the manufacturer, I still lose 14 grand (including finance fees) on this mess. Great for Honda, devastating for me. I have owned this car for 5 weeks at this point.
According to the Honda rep I spoke to (I have never heard from any of the people involved in selling me the car), Honda has zero culpability for whether the car works, despite having sold it to me. They would only be responsible for a bad tire or a scratch on the body of the car, or something like that (!!!).
As a final indication of the shady nature of this place, I traded in my previous vehicle (Mazda Tribute) for a few hundred dollars. It was very old and with almost 200k mileage, had chronic transmission problems, was on its last legs, and they said it would be junked when I explained that to them. Imagine my surprise to see it for sale 2 days later on their website for 4,000 dollars. Can't imagine they put a new transmission in there and I really commiserate with the person who bought it. I hate the idea of a big dealership like this taking such advantage of people who genuinely need transportation in these hard times.
Do NOT buy a car from here.

These people really don’t want to sell cars- they love them too much.
Typical dealer
Unreasonable
They just want to rip peoples heads off
Don’t waste your time.
Great atmosphere

It was an overall pleasant experience. There is adequate inventory and available sales help when needed. I would keep them in mind next time looking for a vehicle.
