I first posted this review April 17th. This is a 3rd and final update. These guys sold me a car with a dangerous defect in the stabilizer bar. Two points here. If that had been known at time of sale the blue book value would have been about $800 or $1000 less. The other point is that these people put me and my family in danger by selling a defective vehicle. I did get them to pay for a salvaged stabilizer bar, the labor to put it on, and an alignment. About $265 total. So they took what they over charged me and paid me what I spent to make the car safe. And they might as well have just given me the finger because thats exactly what they did metaphorically. They offered nothing for putting me and my kids in a dangerous situation. Then I noticed after I had told them about the reviews on here that suddenly one good review shows up. Anyone smell a rat? Then I offer to make everything right by buying a second car and they do the right thing this time and give me a good deal. They did email me 2 days later. I was in a hurry so I went somewhere else. Rossco Motors. I am so thankful they didnt shoot me a price on the car I was looking at because otherwise I would have missed the awesome deal I got at Rossco. Super clean car inside and out. Low miles. And a warranty. A WARRANTY on a used car. And they knocked $500 off the asking price. Tell your friends and have them tell their friends. Looking for a good used car? Go to Rossco! They stand behind their mechanics with a warranty.

I recently bought a car from here the night that i brought it home on my way home the check engine light came on. I took it into my mechanic and it said there was a miss detected on cylinders 4 and 6 so i called them and told them they said it would maybe be the plus so they would do it and charge me half the cost. ok fine. so i sat there an entire day waiting for them to change the plugs and then when i got back into my car it ran worse than before and i didnt even feel safe driving it so they then replaced the coil. well not even a week after that the check engine light came on again and there is something wrong wit the cat converter. oh and now ive found out my transmission is already bad and i had to put a new starter in it as well BAD PLACE WILL NEVER GO BACK! THEY SELL CRAP! ive had nothing but problems and i still have a loan out for three more years. never had so many problems.

I purchased a car from them it worked fine the second day the engine light came on said that there was an issue with the 02 sensor. They said it was just an issue with the switches and that their "Mechanic" fixed it. It popped back on the next day and they wouldnt do anything about it. They were nice when they sold the car horrible service once there was an issue. They did not want to have anything to do with us. Its nice to get a cheap car but, its not nice spending money trying to fix all the issues wrong with it later. Save yourself a headache and go somewhere else.

Purchased a car a couple years ago from here. The car was over priced. The dealer had lied on numerous instances about fixing issues with the car. I left the lot and the car broke down within 6 DAYS OF BUYING IT. $1,000+ later the car was fixed. At first these guys come off as nice folks. But they dont respond to any phone calls or emails after the car has been purchased and they know they did something wrong. Bottom line - I was lied to, and I over-payed for a car that broke down almost immediately. Do not give these guys business.

Terrible: The vehicle I purchased from Dave Jones was not even close to being as represented on line. Mechanical issues, safety issues and cosmetic issues. I feel I was lied to and fraudulent claims were made. He then refused to return my full purchase amount. Typical "Old Time Used Car Dealer". Say anything to make the sale. My review is that I would never ever purchase from this guy again. I would stay as far away as possible from this Company.

Bought 2 vehicles here. The first, we sill have 6 years later. The second had a transmission problem just a week into buying it, and they took very good care of us in figuring out what to do and how to best handle it. Vehicles are priced quite reasonably and I would recommend this place to any and all.

Bought a Mitsubishi from them. Was lied to about the car (mechanical issues, leaking oil, oil on the engine among others). After thousands of dollars spent on repairs, finally sold it at a loss to get rid of the piece of crap. Save yourself some time and do not ever go to this place.

I bought a car from these guys and the main bearing was messed up on it. I had to pull the engine split the case change the crankshaft and all the bearings. I dont know what I would have done if I wasnt an auto mechanic. There is a reason why the prices are so great. There Lemons!!

I recently bought my Chrysler Pacifica from DJ Auto and couldnt be happier. I got a great deal on it and an even better deal on my trade in. Service was exceptional and staff was very helpful. I will definitely be going back for another vehicle in the future.

My family has purchased 6 cars over the years from DJ Auto and loved every one of them! We have had nothing but friendly service and only routine maintenance needed on our cars, trucks, vans and SUVs. I will definitely buy my next car at DJ Auto!

AWFUL PLACE!!! Put a deposit on a car Saturday and they sold it BEFORE I could get them the check on Wednesday! AWFUL Business!!! Sales representative Nathan was completely incompetent.

I bought a classic car from these guys,once I got it back to Ohio and "really" got into working on the car there were tons of issues and unsafe "repairs". Overpriced,half @$$ dealer.

<3 forever. They sold me my first car over 2 years ago. It was older, but it has been the BEST; still is. DJ auto sales reps were kind, fair, and honest, in my experience.

I really hate dealers that dont take down purchased cars from their website. Especially the popular ones. Its called bait and switch...

Corey Stackhouse

They are scammers when it comes to the bottom line on a trade in. They offer way less than what you should get for a car
