I had put a $1,000 down payment for a 2005 Mitsubishi Eclipse. Basically where I’m getting at is this place is really terrible. People are right about this location. Not only the owner rick kept saying his vehicle is good or great. 3 weeks of him and his mechanics tries to give this car a inspection sticker. They didn’t do a 100% safety check. I have pictures and documents from what the car look underneath after they put a sticker on the windshield. This is not a private owner. This is a dealership for crying out loud. I couldn’t drive the car on little to nothing snow on the road. Front passenger control arm was rotted and a big whole in it. Tie rod needed in drive front. Ball joints wasn’t properly install . Driver rear strut look completely rotted from underneath. I completely sprung out in the middle of the road 2 times with that car on the road. Just that itself is a violation to the lemon law here in the United state. The car needed tow services twice which I paid for and have receipts. The time I lost from work and now I’m jobless. This Rick Thurnherr think that he will get away with this. He will be notified in a few days. I like the way he kept saying he tried to help people. This is where I take further action and making sure they will removed his license and shut him down as soon as possible. He first told me good luck before I drove the car out his lot. Now I wanna say the same to you rick. GOODLUCK.

Myself and my girlfriend went to Rick trusted him knowing he said with 30 years experience of service a church man as well sold us rig push buttons to open my trunk and to operate my wipers and now my engine light is on there goes 6,200$ of family life insurance policy from a deceased family member we trusted Rick but just gave us the usual salesman line I don’t recommend buying from him I will be reporting him to DMV for failing unsafe inspection that he did
View on GoogleI have purchased 2 vehicles from him. The first was a truck about 4 years ago. I still have it and it runs fine. I just recently brought my son in for a car. It has been a month and no problems so far. I bought them both with cash so I don't know how the credit works here. If your looking for a car they are not bad. Problem is I just brought my other truck in for some work. I was quoted between $500 and $600 to weld a part of the frame and replace the gas tank straps. It ended up costing me just shy of $900. This is the weld job I received for that money.
View on GoogleIf i could put negative stars i would. My best friend got a car from here, within the first month she had issues. So she took it back, they "fixed" it and sent her on her way. Fast forward 6mos shes had nothing but issues. She had just finished paying it off ($6k) and they had it towed to the shop (she had hit a deer). To where they did $1500 of work on it, told her it was ready for pickup. On her way out to get it they call and say "the engine was blown". They then tell my best friend "bring us $150 for the tow and title" to which she had to get a new car before hand so she could still get to and from work, he proceeds to whine about how hes out of $1500. Honestly..... this place is THE WORST!! I highly recommend you do NOT get any kind of vehicle from them!
View on GoogleWish i could put less stars. Rick us a lemon of a truck. "Fixed" it over and over again with nothing but problems coming every time it was fixed. When we were finally done and got the title we were given a card and told to refer him 😂 absolutely wouldn't recommend him to a single person i know. He's nothing but rude, disrespectful and a terrible person. Gave us an unsafe vehicle for us and our (at the time) 2 1/2 year old.
