The car buying experience was quick and easy. I wasn't financing so it was a simple matter of settling on a price, I wrote a check, and was out within half an hour.That being said I'm not thrilled with the vehicle I purchased. I still have 60 day tags on it and just got it into my mechanic for an oil change and to have him give it a good looking over.It's out of alignment and the two front wheels need replaced soon. I don't knock a star off for this because it's my fault for not paying closer attention when I test drove it, and not paying better attention to the tires while looking at it in general.All in all I got exactly what I was looking for, a smaller car than the Envoy I was driving, with less miles, and better gas mileage at a decent price. I got all of that... personally I'd rather be driving my Envoy still.

We have bought vehicles here for 25+ years and never had a "lemon". Always very friendly and accommodating to our needs - actually go over and beyond our expectations. We wouldn't go anywhere else.

My car buying experience at Jim Clark Auto World was perfectly pleasant, but it soon turned into a nightmare. I should have realized something was amiss when the first car we looked at seemed to have some issues while we were test driving it. It was an older vehicle with incredibly low miles, so I figured I was just not used to driving a car so old. The next car we wanted to look at was misfiring upon starting the engine, so we were not able to drive it. We ended up buying the third vehicle we looked at, a Ford Explorer. I was of the mindset that a car sold by a (what I thought was reputable) dealer would be in good condition. They assured me that their mechanic inspected the vehicle and said it was a great car. We bought it and opted to get the extended warranty just in case. I was told that the car basically had one owner my fault for not looking clearly at the Car Fax and asking questions. I later found out the owner previous to me traded it in after owning it for only four months.I drove home with the car that same night feeling like we got a good car for a fair price. Three days later the check engine light came on and I never went more than three weeks without the car needing repair in the five months I owned it. It needed basic maintenance items that should have all been taken care of before anyone purchased it: a raging fuel leak, wiper blades, hoses, spark plugs, and an alignment. I continually gave them the benefit of the doubt, thinking maybe it was their mechanic. They always fixed the car at no cost, except for the alignment, which I didn t fight since they were not under obligation to fix anything.They did offer to let me purchase another car off their lot for a no commission price, but it was still a used car from the same dealer, and I didn t want to get into the same situation with a different used car. I ended up purchasing a certified pre-owned vehicle elsewhere and went to collect my refund on the balance of the warranty only to have them try to swindle me out of $350, stating that they did not take profit on the warranty. I had my paperwork clearly stating how much I paid for the warranty and the owner, Keith, was insistent on saying that I did not pay that amount. He did finally give me my check, but only after literally screaming at me and trying to find any excuse to take blame off of himself. When Keith finally handed me the second check (because the first was short) with the balance of the warranty, Keith screamed at me to get out and to not come back. He continued yelling at me while I compared the numbers to be sure I was not being cheated by them again.In short: my experience was shifty paperwork practices for a sub-par vehicle the very reasons why used car dealers get a bad reputation. I d recommend going elsewhere for your next car unless you want to deal with potential nightmares.

They were really cool when my friends truck died right out front, letting us put it in their lot. They even called down the street to the closest repairman and got us a quote! It was so cold we thought about just buying another vehicle on the spot and looked around. We got her truck fixed but learned they had some awesome vehicles with as little as $800 down. I would recommend!

I didn t buy a car here, I even disclaimed off the jump that I didn t plan on buying one there, but still the dealer was super helpful in showing me fair value for the car I was looking at and answering all my questions. 10/10 recommend

Even though as much as i wanted to! i didnt get a chance to make a deal on a vehicle from here due to me coming in at a bad timing(flu season!). The owner, Keith, seemed to be an honest man and i respect him for that! These are the kind of people that are hard to come by. Thank you Keith for the kind words and pointers! Unfortunately, i was running short of time and i had to purchase a vehicle asap else where because i travel alot for work.

July 31st 2018 12:30 p.m.. I called about a 2010 Camaro he was rude unprofessional and not willing to go the extra mile to try to sell a vehicle except throw in a pitch that they have a red tag sale and by the way it ends today. I gave one star because of the phone conversation. First impression will always be a "Lasting" impression.

If you want to purchase a vehicle and then dump your hard earned money into it outside of the payments then this is the place for you. If you want to be upset and skeptical about buying from a used car lot, then make your purchase here. Never again will I do business here.
