***Scroll to bottom for morale of the story*** I have been looking for a smaller truck for a while now, so when I saw a Dodge Dakota there with low miles I thought I would take a look at it. After dickering for a bit we agreed on a price & the salesman said that price is only good if you close tonight, but I need to talk to my wife. It was 630pm and they close at 7pm. I talked to the sales guy and he let me call by opening the next morning with an answer from them. I thought that was great, and really appreciated it. Next morning I put my deposit down and picked it up that evening. Drove it home, parked it in the drive, and came out the next day and it was leaking tranny fluid. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! I bought it "AS-IS", so legally Velishek was off the hook. I was pretty upset and called them up and they said bring it in and well see what we can do. Turns out it was just a leaky gasket from when they replaced the tranny pan. Velishek also took care of it free of charge; even though legally they didnt have to. Morale of the Story: Even though they didnt have a "Legal" obligation to fix it for free, they did the moral thing and paid for it anyways without me pressuring them into it. It shows there is still some morality left in used car sales! Thanks Velishek.

My wife and I were looking to buy a vehicle that was larger than the 05 Corolla she had been driving which was totaled in an accident. After looking online at a variety of vehicles and countless dealerships we came across a 2003 Toyota Highlander with incredibly low miles, 57xxx give or take and felt we owed it to ourselves to take a look even though we were from the east metro and never heard of this dealership, we are glad we did. After test driving it we bought it and have been very happy with it. We did have a light come on in the dash which turned out to be a sensor and the service department took care of it at no cost to us, excellent. After buying vehicles from the big dealerships in the past it was nice to have a positive experience with the people here where there was a complete abscence of pressure and drama. Oh, and by the way, the price we paid for our highlander was THOUSANDS less than others we came across exactly like it with high miles! There was nothing not to like about this deal and dealership. When I buy a vehicle for myself this coming year I will definitely check them out again.

Truck I purchased was supposed to have been inspected and ready to roll, it broke down within 10 miles of dealership, squeeky belt. I took the truck back, they sprayed belt dressing on belt which quieted it. I attempted to drive truck back home, got home, the sound came back and the oil pressure dropped to zero twice, within 1 week truck need a new belt, pulley and tenser, $590.00 repair, tow haul mode wouldnt work, new shifter needed $212.00 repair, gauges stopped working $320.00 repair, brakes were stated to be at 70% when purchased per dealer inspection now at 10k miles after purchase brakes failed $490.00 repair, over $1,100.00 in repairs in under 1 year on an "Inspected" truck, what an absolute Lie, I would not buy here again or recommend to anyone.

I bought a used car here at a fair price, but the check engine light came on the day after I took it home. Over $1000 in repairs. My car guys said they most likely turned the check engine light off for test drives. I took it to my regular car guys even though the car was under 50% warranty (so that I would only pay half of whatever repairs if I brought it back to Velishek). When I told Velishek one of the parts that needed to be replaced and asked for an estimate, they wanted to charge me TWICE as much as the repair would have cost at a normal shop. I had nearly all of my repairs done for the amount that Velishek wanted for one. Velishek engages in dubious business practices, perhaps dangerous ones, and jacks up their prices.

I had been shopping around for a new vehicle for a few weeks, this last spring. I thought I found a great deal on a car and brought it in for an inspection and it was horrible! I was disgruntled when my credit union recommended these guys!! I was told that they seem to have the cars with the lowest miles for the best price. I found a CRV that was is fantastic shape. I brought it in for an inspection and was told by my mechanic that it was in such good shape they would buy it for their mother. It did need new tires. Which they took care of for me within a week! I still love my CRV and my experience here!

I have purchased three vehicles here over the last ten years and all of them are still going today, all with 135,000 - 160,000 miles on them. I did have a mechanical issue with one of them but they worked it out with me and the resolution was fairly done. In my experience they have good vehicles to choose from and take care of their customers.

Purchased a nice PT Cruiser from them. No hassle, no lot lizards, just like shopping for cars in a small town. Service garage is great; price quoted is accurate, they call if they find other things that may need to be fixed but dont pressure you into unnecessary add-ons. Nice family owned business.

They have a good selection of used cars. The only problem is they are a little over priced compared to other local dealers. Most of the cars are at clean retail price or above so you just have the be aware of book values before you go. Good staff working there though very helpful.

Have had our cars serviced there for years and have always been treated fairly and received good service. Have now purchased two used cars in the past year and found the experience to be great! Would highly recommend them. Family run business that cares about their customers!

WOW. What a great staff. Were very patient with me. Every car on the lot looks well maintained. I drove away in my 2500 Suburban feeling like a king. My first experience there. Will not be the last. Well worth the 1.5 hour drive.

Great service, attention and quality products. Service after the sale is good, not afraid to buy a car, or have a car serviced by Velisheks. Bought one vehicle, and had countless services done on others, over the years.
