I had a great experience buying here. Chris was extremely patient, informative, honest, and helpful in the decision process. Easy and clear communication. I had been looking for a new car for about a year before I found these guys and drove off with one 3 days later. This will be my first stop if I ever need another used car!

I had a very positive experience buying a car here, found something in my budget that many other dealerships just don't have. Not everyone can afford a car for $30k or more. The Subaru I got may not be the newest model but will serve me many years. Thank you

A great buying experience. Chris was a pleasure to deal with. A no pressure environment. A good inventory of nice cars & no hidden dealer fees. Prices are good so ... don t expect too much negotiation off the window sticker. I HIGHLY recommend this dealer

I went in last week to look at a Jeep Liberty. The next day i went back to pick it up and it was ready with registration and plates. Arthur made the entire process so easy and it was at a great price too. The car runs beautifully, and I m proud to own it! I will never get a car anywhere else. It s so hard to find this level of honesty and knowledge of inventory. I m so glad I travelled from Queens, New York to get my car here. Thanks again, I ll be recommending you to anyone I know looking for a vehicle.

From start to finish, buying a car from Hudson Auto Traders was a completely pleasant experience; no hassles and the best prices in the tri-state area. This is a 2nd family car we have purchased from Arthur and when it's time for another vehicle, that's where we will shop. Thanks a million.

I bought my first car which was a 2013 g37x from these guys and they were beyond amazing with their service. The car was exactly as advertised, me and my parents were met with extreme kindness and everyone was extremely helpful. There was a small issue after purchasing the car as there was a small oil leak so we brought the car back to them and they fixed it up perfectly (even though the issue wasn't exactly covered in the warranty) at no charge which was amazing! They also replaced some other parts for us too that looked a little worn. Over all Hudson Auto Traders is a great business and I highly recommend them to everyone!

Has some pretty nice vehicles. We bought a vehicle from them many years ago and drove it for 6 years. Only 30 day warranties upon purchase, so you need to look carefully before you buy. Nice guys and answered all our questions . I'd recommend them.

Recently, I bought a 2010 Mercedes E350 from Hudson Valley Auto Trader after finding them online last December. During the test drive, I heard a knock in the wheel, but I assumed it would be fixed as promised, and I purchased the car.When I picked up the car I realized that the wheel noise was still present, and the lighter did not work. The sunroof only opened halfway before getting stuck and rolling back. The side windows also mimicked the sunroof. I was becoming concerned about how all these issues were missed during their check.One day, when the weather hit 5 degrees, my driver side rear door lock froze in the open position. I had to drive home holding the door closed. I called the dealer and reported all the issues, and they promised to fix them.I returned to the dealership, and one of their mechanics confirmed all the issues. He initially thought the thunk was the control arm. The managers agreed to fix all the issues and promised to call me when it was complete. However, the next day the manager called and stated that the noise I was hearing was not the control arm. It was in fact the U-Joint that connects to the powertrain. He denied responsibility for the U-joint, which needed a critical repair costing $2,000, and insisted the car did not leave the lot in this condition. He insisted it somehow deteriorated in the 2 months that I possessed the car. He also stated since I never mentioned the problem he would not accept responsibility.I reasoned with them that I am not a mechanic and could not be expected to determine each individual noise and know what was wrong accurately by ear. However according to the dealer this was the case and I should have possessed these skills. He insisted that the car had been in my possession for 4 months on March 8th which was actually 2 months and a week past the day I received it the week after Christmas. He stated that it was a used car and if the engine fell out It was not his responsibility.I returned to the dealership the next day to pick up the car and was quickly handed my keys with no paper work for the repair of the lighter, sunroof or windows or lubrication of the locks and was ushered out the door with no conversation. I attempted to question the sales associate about the situation but was unable to get far as he cut me off to the point that I was unable to finish one sentence. He explain to me that anything wrong with the car was my fault and they held no responsibility. He then advised me in front of other customers that he himself would not drive the car far, but I also had to drive an hour back home!!I took the car to be checked out by a reputable Mercedes Mechanic who informed me that the part had to be damaged in a way that would have been noticeable during inspection when I purchased the car. I was also informed the car would not pass inspection with the part in that condition which raised into question the validity of the inspection.Thankfully I have recourse. Even though it has exceeded the 30 NY State Warranty period, NY considers a car in delivered condition up to 6 months or 6K Miles. A fact most people including this car dealership do not know. And by saving the parts after paying for the repair a NY State Auditor will reinspect the car and parts and determine if the part was in that condition within the 6K miles which luckily it still is and if the inspection was actually valid, which at this point seems highly unlikely.In situations like this, it's important to remember that the customer has rights, and the seller has responsibilities. A dealership should be transparent about the condition of a car and should make repairs to ensure the vehicle is safe to drive. It's not reasonable for the dealership to expect you to have the skills of a professional mechanic to diagnose issues with the car. The fact that the U-joint was in such poor condition that it required a $2,000 repair just two months after you purchased the car raises serious questions about the validity of the dealership's inspection.

I purchased an older Volvo from them and the service from Hudson Auto Traders was and is FANTASTIC. The price was excellent and the used car runs wonderfully. Chris and Artie are the best!!!!!!!!!!! Five star rating for sure.

Shop with caution. They are always friendly and helpful when you're looking, and they have assorted brands of used cars. I suggest that you definitely bring your car to your mechanic to look over the engine before making a purchase, and do not EVER use their mechanics if there are any issues. Their mechanics just fix the issue enough to prevent them from honoring the warranty that they give you.

Had a great experience! Great selection of cars, fair pricing without any hidden fees and such. The staff was friendly and helpful taking care of the few small concerns I had with the car I was purchasing. Would definitely buy from them again and will be recommending to anyone looking for a used car!

Great selection of cars and an excellent service, highly recommended. Both Arthur and Chris answered all my questions and provided me with the best possible loan i could qualify for.

My wife and I had a GREAT experience buying a used car from Hudson Auto Traders. As many other reviewers have noted, Chris (and the entire staff) were a pleasure to deal with. Very kind, decent, honest, down-to-earth folks who are easy to talk to. Their listed prices are quite good (so don't expect too much wiggle room during negotiations). There are no hidden fees and no sales pressure. Hudson Auto Traders has a nice, varied inventory (for a relatively small used car dealership) and they provided a very thorough inspection of the car we bought. To pass inspection, I was thinking that the front tires might need replacing. As it turned out, Chris ended up replacing all four tires (at no extra cost) even though the back tires definitely had some life left in them. We HIGHLY recommend this dealership, if you are looking for a quality used car at a good price.

I was referred here by my friend and his father, who said that I could get a good deal on a good car. They were so right. The guys who work there are not pushy and let you peruse the inventory without bothering you, which I very much appreciated. They were honest and helpful as well. The prices are very fair, so they don t really negotiate. Very happy with my car. I would highly recommend!

I just purchased a car from them earlier this week and it was ready for pickup with plates and registration the next day! No crazy fees, prices online are the same in person unlike many other dealerships. Any concerns I had with the car they were more than happy to help. Not a stressful experience at all.

What a great car-buying experience. As others have said, Chris and company are honest, fair, friendly, and go above and beyond. The car I bought had a bad gas gauge, and they fixed it as a courtesy and lent me a car for the lengthy period it was sent out. I highly recommend this dealer!

I just brought an Infiniti G 37 from here. I felt very comfortable buying a car from this dealership. They went above and beyond to make sure my insurance was right on paper so I wouldn t run into problems with DMV. They are very trustworthy people. I recommend them if you are skeptical about buying from a used car dealerships

I can not praise Arthur and Chris enough. I had just gotten screwed out of a car by a dealer in Ct. I needed to get a car for my son as he is working and going to college in the fall. I felt horrible about the last deal as I knew I was going to disappoint my son. Dealing with Arthur I found a nice car for a good price and we needed to set up delivery, they were delivering a lot of cars the next day but Arthur thought they could do it. I still felt bad because I knew my son was going to be disappointed the car wasn't there when he got home from work. An hour after I left the dealer Chris called me and said it was going to be difficult to get the car to me tomorrow, so he got it ready now and if I could get the insurance info to him, I could pick up the car tonight! My son was so happy when he got home and I said, come on we need to go pick up your car. You two made a father very happy, thank you very much!!!

I purchased one vehicle from these guys (so far) but have browsed several more times since then. I find them to be polite, helpful and very low-pressure. As others have said, you don't feel like you need to "keep your guard up" the whole time as you sadly do at many big-name car dealerships. I intend to buy another vehicle from them in the near future.

As a family, we were very satisfied with Hudson Auto Traders. We bought a car for our son to use locally, and for a small fee Hudson Auto Traders took care of the license plates and other paperwork with DMV. They said they would work with us if the car had problems down the line, and they kept their word, replacing the rear brake pads at no charge after a few months of use. I would definitely recommend.

Do not buy a car from this place!!!! All this place is trying to do is scam you into buying a car that has problems. I had bought my first car from them, was informed that there were no problems with the car meanwhile the first month I had the car I had to have $2,300 worth of repairs. When I bought the car, it had multiple scratches which were claimed to be fixable which were not. Car was not in good condition at all and over charged me completely.The people at this place do not care about their customers and all they care about is your money. DO NOT BUY A CAR FROM THIS PLACE.

Probably the best car shopping experience I have ever had. Chris was my sales representative and made sure everything was just right. This is a no pressure buying experience, I had time to thoroughly inspect every vehicle without anyone breathing down my neck.

I had a minor issue with my 2013 Mitsubishi Lancer and I went to Hudson Auto Traders to take a look at the issue and my car was on the Lift in less than 30 minutes. They took a look at my vehicle and the problem fix in less than two hours. Their some real nice dudes and a pleasure to have them work on my car.
