I just wanted to say, I've been looking for a used pickup truck for about 3 months, and I felt with a lot of sales people from different dealerships and by far the hardest working salesman for me was a young man named Abel at the AutoNation in Avondale. He wasn't pushy but sent me links almost daily of trucks like I was looking for. He was super polite and straight with me and I appreciate it. Rare qualities these days.

I’ve seen a majority of negative reviews for this company, but on further reading I noticed most these reviews are for locations other than the Sanford, Florida location. I had been looking for a specific vehicle for my specific needs, after searching for about 4 or 5 months, I saw my future vehicle online, I was a bit wary as most vehicles had an extreme high mileage over 150k, but this vehicle, wasn’t only on the low mileage range but it was exactly what I was looking for, no accidents, one owner, maintenance records available and low mileage for the year, a 2013 Toyota Sienna SE with all the bells and whistles (that was a bonus I was not expecting) with under 130k miles and the PRICE, unbeatable for the vehicle under 11k.
I called and spoke with several people but the one person that I was in constant communication was Mr. **, he is a laid back let the product speak for itself kind of person, he made my journey so easy, comfortable and I felt safe with him, knowing that this purchase would be worth it. I need to say I’ve never bought a vehicle online before, so for me this was a first, buying a vehicle sight unseen, I finally secured a ride to the Sanford location in Florida and between the sales man Mr. **, the financing young lady, she explained everything in detail and double checked everything to make sure I was completely satisfied, they stayed at my target payments without trying to upsell anything, giving me options instead (ensuring I felt I was in control of my financial decisions), the location manager and the location mechanic, I truly felt they were selling to a beloved family member.
I took my baby home, YES YES I purchase the minivan, and as I got home (it was nighttime), I noticed a few issues (4 to be exact), I called them I told them and THEY TOOK CARE OF EVERYTHING, every single issue, mind you these vehicles no matter where you go if used is ALWAYS ALWAYS, AS IS. They have found in me a loyal client and a walking billboard.
I’ve told all my friends, family and anyone who will listen that for their future vehicle purchases to go to Autonation USA Sanford Florida. From Reception as soon as I walk in, to, Mr. ** (sales), Mr. ** (manager), The Mechanic (I apologize I forgot his name). The mobile mechanic, ** (yes they came out to my house), and he stayed until I was completely satisfied, all these people are wonderful and they make sure the consumer has an incredible experience, they don’t care about just selling a vehicle, they care about their reputation, customer service, support and satisfaction. They make sure they are on TOP.

I recently met with Brad, service dept. Director at Chevy AutoNation after a 0 review. He requested I come in and explain which I appreciated. He listened, was kind and took notes so he could improve the situation. He agreed there was a communication failure and was willing to improve the situation in the future. He seemed sincere and expected excellent customer service.
I took my Malibu back 2day to replace a catalytic converter. It arrived at 8:10 a.m. and we're told it would be 2-3 hours but due to some issues it took around 8. We didn't pick it up because our 2nd car was in use and I had no way to pick it up until morning. I was called and notified which was appreciated and left a message for the Director. I do wish that someone would have let us know that the job was going to take a lot longer than expected. I am giving a 4 because the dealership is trying to improve and resolve issues. I want to wait and see how our future issues are handled before I give a 5. I believe it is a good dealership and Edgar, Jacob, and Taylor were very good during my sale.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Kathryn ** at AutoNation in Chattanooga, TN, and I cannot express enough how impressed I am with her professionalism, technical expertise, and outstanding customer service. From our very first interaction, Kathryn was attentive and truly listened to our needs. We needed to sell our 2013 RAM 1500 4X4 to purchase a wheelchair-accessible vehicle, and Kathryn guided us through the entire process with ease. Her knowledge of the market and understanding of our situation allowed her to secure the funds we wanted for our truck, which was a significant relief.
What truly sets Kathryn apart is her exceptional communication skills. She kept us informed at every step, ensuring we felt comfortable and confident in our decisions. Her friendly demeanor made the entire experience enjoyable, and we really appreciated her dedication to helping us find the right solution for our needs. Even after the sale, Kathryn continued to provide support, demonstrating her commitment to her clients. I wholeheartedly recommend Kathryn ** at Auto Nation for anyone looking for a smooth and successful vehicle sale or purchase experience. Thank you, Kathryn, for your remarkable service!

Michael went above and beyond; he was extremely easy to talk to. I let him know right at the start this was my budget on a used vehicle for my daughter, and it was literally right there. I was amazed because I have bad credit. I've been to other dealerships, and we go through everything, but then at the end, the payments are not nearly what we discuss, so it was a BIG change, and I'm already planning to get my next kid a vehicle from Michael. THANKS.

AutoNation Chevy on the Gulf Freeway in Houston, Texas has the worst customer service I have ever had in terms of Sales and Service. They lost my registration plates originally and it took me 5 months to get them. When I received a recall notice, I scheduled an appointment two weeks in advance. On the day of the appointment, I got there early and they checked me in and told me to come back in about 90 minutes. I did as instructed and upon arrival, I noticed that my truck had not been worked on at all. The girl who checked me in could not explain why no one worked on my truck. I asked for a manager. He came out and told me he could not explain why it wasn't worked on. He did this with an attitude of I don't care. I asked him if he was the manager in charge of auto repairs. He said he was. I then asked how can you not know why the truck was not worked on. He didn't have an answer and did not care. So I left and went to another Chevy dealership.

THE WORST CUSTOMER follow through I have ever experienced in my 70 years! Trying to work with ANY...AS IN A N Y SALES person on Internet sales or floor sales is an experience that one feels at the end... Well, that is time that was total freaking waste! And times that by 4 days trying to get an answer. Management needs to have the ass handed to them by corporate! AutoNation sales employees would have a tough time at McDonald's figuring out what sack the fries goes into! Idiots is a kind word. I am surprised AutoNation continues in business when the staff is so absolutely utterly incompetent!

Cash Price posted on the Jeep Autonation Website is False. I drove 460 miles to purchase a New Jeep Gladiator from Autonation Jeep in North Richland Hills. They had 7 models I was I wanted. 1st choice 3 with exact color and trim package I wanted. I thought good I just need one. I showed Javier ** the Manufacturer's sticker I printed from the website, gave him the stock number of all 3 Red Mojave Jeep Gladiators. He introduced me to his manager. All were the same and all were available. $44,909.00 cash price listed on the website. Test drove everything then he reveals the Scam.
The Dealership claims to have added over $4,000.00 add-ons to the already well-equipped vehicle. I said what about the other two. Same story. Pulled out my second choice Blue Rubicon, they had 4 all similar, two marked $43,792.00, other $44,062.00. Javier said same story, all had over $4,000.00 worth of add-on that are not listed on the website. I then said why is that not listed? Javier's response 'You would not have come in.' Manager and Javier both confirmed they would not sell any of the models for the Advertised Cash price. My response "This is False advertising, and I won't be back".

I recently worked with AutoNation Subaru Arapahoe in Centennial CO. They completely misrepresented and fraudulently hid known issues with a used vehicle I purchased. I understand we purchased a used vehicle; however, our decision was based mostly on the presentation of a vehicle inspection that was presented to include anything found to be an issue and either fixed or not fixed. 5 days following my purchase the vehicle started leaking oil everywhere. After an inspection by our mechanic the vehicle is reported to need over $7,000 dollars worth of work; more than we paid. I tried to work with the dealership. They initially agreed to take the vehicle back, however, upon arriving at the dealership to find a different vehicle, Kwabena ** said they would have to work up a trade proposal on the vehicle I purchased. This is not what was presented in writing. This dealership also has a failing rating with the Better Business Bureau.
During my meeting with the AutoNation representative, he stated in front of witnesses that they knew about the issues my mechanic found and deemed them to not be safety in nature and therefore did not address them. This was their choice; however, they did not disclose these potential issues to me. The lack of this information prevented me from making an informed decision. Had they told us about these issues we would not have purchased the vehicle. If I wanted to be surprised by issues with a used car I would have gone through social media to find. This specific dealership also has a failing rating with the Better Business Bureau.

Hello my name is Amanda ** and my husband Brandon ** retired veteran recently, 3 months ago purchased a 2020 Land Rover Discovery. Upon purchase my husband did a test drive but was told not to go onto the highway. When they got back to the dealership, my husband was overall happy with the vehicle and expected they did their 165 point inspection and he bought the vehicle. Later on a couple weeks later once we started driving on the highway driving approximately 70 miles an hour the vehicle stayed shaking.
My husband then looked at the tires and realized that the tires were not the grade that Land Rover tires usually come with. They were iron man tires as opposed to the Pirelli’s that Land Rover usually has. He brought the car to the dealership and he expressed his concerns about the vehicle and the shaking. They told him that it was the brakes. He said OK so they fixed the brakes and it did not fix the issue. A couple weeks later he’s driving down the road and the tread fell off of the back passenger tire on the highway, and when my husband put the spare on the vehicle, the spare was even a Pirelli spare.
Now I understand that we bought a used vehicle however we bought the used vehicle from a reputable dealership expecting to be put in a safe vehicle not a negligent unsafe vehicle. Thank goodness we did not have an accident and I was not driving and thank goodness nobody got hurt. My husband talked to the GM and he pretty much said not there is nothing he was going to do and did not want to help whatsoever they did. They did switch out the tire that the tread fell off of which caused major damage to the vehicle as you could assume and but however, they put another H rated tire on it, but they said it was a Bridgestone so it was it was. It should be fine. Now Land Rover should only have a V or a W graded tire being that it goes being that the torque and how fast the vehicle goes. We also went back to the lot and noticed a lot of tires tire had been changed out on nice luxury vehicles as ours was. Buyer beware!!
