I have the Kia Rio 2013 and this is a wonderful car dealership! They work with you on your down payments and they are always work with you also on your car payment. Ive recently had my wallet stolen from someone at work last week. They worked with me so I could get that caught up! If you communicate and your honest with them. They will do their best to help you.. I would highly recommend their cars and their service. They are always so friendly. Thank you Renaut for always working with me. I would definitely recommend you to family and friends!
Great place to buy a car. Especially if youre credits low. They finance in house. Good cars and nice people 👍
I got my Buick from this lot & im in love with it very good mileage. Very great customer service the people were very helpful. The lady that takes the car payments is amazing and helped with a lot & explaining the payments & very thorough! Very pleased !
Very nice folks and are very helpful. Will continue looking for a truck with them .
Kind Staff in the sales and service department.Good cars at decent prices
Was literally just in there looking at an Escalade on their lot. car was unlocked. went to open the back hatch and they locked the car on me. so obviously they were watching me. so that tells me rather than send a sales person out they just want to send a service disabled vet with cash away!!! yes I showed you my stack of cash and flicked you all off ill be taking it elsewhere.
That very caring willing to work with you walked in with $500 walked out with a 2010 vehicle awesome people
I would recommend anyone looking for a car to buy from here, Dylan got me into my 4 runner With no hassle. It was quick and easy, I have had this car for 2 years now and It is still driving like the day I bought it.. 100% recommendation to anyone wanting to get a reliable car for a great price and If you have questions they will answer them. Very genuine people
Very bad place my girlfriend just bought a 2011 Buick Regal there in late April and the engine blew and car broke down two months later in June !!! DONT BUY A CAR FROM HERE And they just want all of your money !
Very friendly people who works with good people on getting a vehicle thank you
The owner of this lot is childish and wants to rip people off!!!! I called about a car in the shop he started cussing at me and refused to check for a broken wire that I request seeing that a broken wire is lot cheaper than rebuilding a transmission but he rather rip me off by telling me that the transmission needs rebuilt not knowing 100% that is the problem!!!!!!!!!
In March of 2020 I purchased a GMC Terrain from this lot and when I purchased it the engine light was on. I was told by the owner that he wish he could sell me a better SUV but he would repair whatever is wrong with it. The truck was suppose to have had the breaks replaced and new tires on it. There service department allegedly repaired it and the engine light came back on as soon as I left the lot. I then took it to get a second opinion from another mechanic who told me they did not repair anything and they just turned the check engine light off. I went back to them and informed them the issue was not resolved and that I was told the engine light was just turned off. They allegedly put a new catalyst converter in it and replaced the sensors. No check engine light since. This all has happened within 1-2 weeks of having the vehicle. Now after only having the car 2 months ABS light is on and check stability track is on. I had a appointment for service with Renaut and it was cancelled due to COVID-19 and I have been unable to pay because they were closed. I call today to work something out with them and the owner Dylan was extremely rude. I assured him he would get payment in full for the vehicle but I would like to discuss the vehicle being serviced he basically said to me I am in collection mode and once you make a payment we can discuss repairing the vehicle. Then he hung up the phone. There sales person was so nice when I purchased the vehicle so I am completely shocked by the service I received. DO NOT PURCHASE A VEHICLE FROM THIS COMPANY!
The owner is a very bad person, we put the car for repair and we needed to reload the goods from one car to another, he took $ 200 from us for doing it with the door open and cooling the room.
DEAL WITH THEM IF YOU WANT BUT DONT SAY YOU WERE NOT WARNED.I took my Mazda RX-8 in here because they have a rotary specialist there and I prefer to only service my vehicle with someone with the knowledge to tackle its challenges. So i spent 2x the cost of a typical oil change for a 1.3L tiny motor and on top of all that they end up stealing my engine cover. After telling me over 5 times that they would have a tech drop it off because it was so out of the way for me (very generous offer if it was ever honored), i never heard from them. When I finally decided i would go pick up the cover myself, they said the tech wasnt there for the day and left no instruction with anyone.DEAL WITH THEM IF YOU WANT BUT DONT SAY YOU WERE NOT WARNED.
Grant was an awesome young man.
My experiences with Sommer Auto have been great. Sure, I wasnt greeted with a bright and smiling face ready and willing to cater to my every desire. What I was greeted with was someone who did their job efficiently and quickly.The man I worked with back in 2015 helped me find a car that suited my money situation, let me test drive it, and had everything ready by the time I came back. Its not a brand new car, this thing had 150k+ on it, but it was well taken care of. The process to buy and pay for the car was near effortless and I was in an out with a new-to-me car that ran well in less than 2 hours.Paying the payments are a bit of a pain (I use bi-weekly payments because it fits with me better), mainly because of the high interest and the $5 card processing fee, but thats what you sign up for with BHPH, and I fully knew it going in.And for some reason if you ever DO have an issue with payment, calling and speaking with Sommer herself isnt as bad as people take it out to be. Just now, Ive been having some money issues so I called and got Sommer directly. I told her my situation, she empathized with me, and everything is all taken care of. They may not treat you like emperor of the galaxy every waking moment, but they treat you like a human being. If you stand up to your end of the bargain, they will find a way to work with you.I know that when my car eventually bites the dust and if Im still not in an optimal position to buy a brand new car, Ill probably go to Sommer Auto first.TL;DR - They dont treat you like royalty, but they treat you FAIRLY. And thats all you can ask for from used car lots.
Very reasonable and have great cars
This companies reputation is so BAD that they had to change the name! I bought a car here, after 2 days, the starter went out. Cost me $300/ they said theyd charge me $500. I had so many problems with the car, I finally called them to take it back. I am now paying these thieves $10/month for a car that was actually dangerous to drive. These people are complete liars and thieves. Do not go near this company unless you want to be ripped off!
Dylan got me into an awesome car at a great price! Highly recommend
If there was an option to give them a “0” I would! I was sold a 2009 Ford Edge with suspension issues. This company set me up with a financing company called Tebo financial, so I cannot even give the car back without it hitting my credit. Dylan became very argumentative when I voiced my concerns in a professional manner. Not only that they advertise this business as a buy here pay here when it’s not. There are other options out there from more reputable dealers in the area. BUYERS BEWARE!!!!!
They are who they say they are!!! Great place Joe is Awesome!!!
Initially my experience was great. But since then my opinion has changed. They were not transparent about any issues on the car I purchased. We have had this car for a year today. It had issues within the first week of purchase. The battery was disconnected to remove the check engine light. Once we drove it, the light came on. The cruise control will not work. We have spent hundreds of dollars in repairs and still have at least a couple hundred more to go. It has been off the road for the past two months as we are trying to repair what is wrong with it. They charged a late fee (was never late) didnt inform myself. My fiance went to pay the payment and was putting a little extra on the books for interest fees. Thats when we found out. He got into a verbal altercation with the people in office, he was threatened but they were to scared to act on it. I will never purchase another vehicle here. Nor would I ever recommend this establishment to any one. Buyer beware.
Ive been dealing with Sommer Auto for over 15yrs and I have always had great experiences with them, some of these reviews I read on here sounds like people that couldnt do what they were suppose to do to keep their cars so theyre mad. Any issues Ive had with any car they were MORE than willing to get it fixed. Experience it for yourself dont believe everything that is written.
Super professional and willing to work with us. They made a great deal for us and we were able to walk out the door with a car. They were very low pressure
The worst place to purchase a car, bought an suv and two days later the check engine light comes on. the abs quit working and they refused to even honor their promise to repair. spoke with the so call owner and they stated that they are not going to do any free repairs. they sold the suv knowing that something was wrong with it. if you value your money go else where. Shady as they come.
This company will finance through a finance company, whatever deposit you put downis pocketed by the dealership, the interest rates are super high and if the vehicle breaks down in the first 30 days they will pretend to do the fix up because they apparently dont know that Lemon Laws in Ohio extend to 18,000 miles or the 1 year. I got financed for a car SEPTEMBER 19 it has had complications since the first week. The dealership has been extremely rude refuse to fix it and will only allow me to trade the car in with a new down payment and the loan will care over to a NEW LEMON.. Needless to say I have contacted the Attorney Generals office...OH and they do not provide you with receipts when the fake mechanic service the vehicle.......
This dealership preys on people with less than perfect credit with unreliable vehicles. After paying 1/4 of your total loan, Sommer will then sell your car loan to Mid-Atlantic Finance Company (from Florida, please google their reviews) where there is no customer service standard. If you want a true buy here pay here go to Best Buy Motors.
This place dosent stand by there word, my credit isn’t bad but I only bought a car from them because I was also about to purchase a home and didn’t want another bill on my credit.I was informed that they wouldn’t send to credit bureaus, also I never missed a payment but then I get notice they sold my contract to a third party and now they added loan on my credit smh if I was you I wouldn’t do business with these guys! Then I called them too discuss the matter they just hang up phone after being very rude run far away
I purchased a 2001 Ford Excursion on October 12 2019. I paid in cash. I was told they would mail the title out to me within a week. I was also promised that I would receive maintenance records including upgrades that were done on it. After many a phone call and texting I received the title on December 12, 2019. It took 2 months to process the title!!!! I never got the maintenance records. Save your self the headache dont shop here.
Got my 2nd car from this place is a very good place. Staff is always very helpful and very pleasant
Ive had a great experience came to get a vehicle with not much to put down was able to leave with car i wanted the truck is in great shape in they work with you is the key also dont get a vehicle that doesnt work in your budget be smart people
Bought a vehicle and was happy with it. You cant expect great cars from a buy here, pay here lot. I do however expect a mechanic that knows what he is doing if I am paying for the service. Service is not their strong suit.
Sommer Auto Sales Inc in Reynoldsburg Ohio is not The best place I got a Trailblazer make 2 months ago and only was able to drive it maybe 8 times! After having to pay for a tow truck 3 times Sommer picked the vehicle up to fix it. I got a call today saying it was going to cost me over $700 to fix!!! I’m a single mom already paying $300 a month to keep the vehicle and now this!! The people are nice but when they don’t take care of the customers it gives them a bad name!! If you want a nice vehicle that back up their customers go to Cruiser Auto!! Bob is the nicest man you could meet and won’t screw his customers over. Sommer Auto though kinda gives them all a bad name smh
Calls them and asks if there was any way to work with me put the pictures up and the sales manager said to go buy a car somewhere else and quit bothering us. I don’t get how this car lot is still open on that kind of manager. Didn’t wanna give my money to you guys anyway. Hope you get caught selling fake titles again.
Great service no trouble getting my title and my alternator went out after the first couple weeks and they fixed it every since the car runs great I will probably get my next car here to
This place suck . They sell junk cars, Sommer the OWNER /BOSS talks smart and disrespectful to PAYING customers, not willing too compromise . I would suggest you stay far away from them when buying a car JD byrider is a better dealership then this one . DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY AT THIS PLACE I WISH SOMEONE WOULD OF TOLD ME SOONER
Didnt take care of my vehicle! Have dents all over car now and scratches. Rocks in all my exhaust tips. They also didnt wanna tell me for 3 months what i needed to pay to get my car back. Dont ever go here!
My wife and I got a 2007 Lincoln MKX from Sommers and they are very nice and easy to work with buying a good vehichle.
Sommer Auto is fantastic! They have a good selection of cars and the people are great to work with. I have every intention of purchasing another vehicle from them in the near future.
Never buy or lease a car from this place. Ive recommended two people who have issues with their vehicles after loaning them. The staff sucks and Sommer the owner doesnt have any sympathy for her bullshit ass cars!
Always willing to work with you. Never had any problems with them.
Hands down one of the worst experiences I have ever had at a car dealership. I called in advance to make sure a sales representative would be available for me to check out some of the inventory . I walked into the office and had to approach a sales rep who was sitting in front of the lobby room television. Right off the bat, the rep looked me over and asked me how much I wanted to pay (he clearly didnt want my business). Apparently they have a strict 3 year leasing period which means you are looking at $450 car payments a month for used, outdated vehicles. I have been looking for a specific vehicle model that the dealership had and was willing to spend over my budget for this specific car. Sadly I was turned away because I apparently dont match their preferred demographic of buyers. The older gentlemen then turned his back to me and I saw myself out of the dealership. All in all my experience lasted a total of 2 min because he needed to get back to watching the television (I clearly wasted this older gentlemans time). Thanks Sommer Automotive for providing me with no information and treating me like a waste of time, I will be sure to spread the word throughout Reynoldsburg.
I bought a car from there 3 years ago and have not had a problem it was a great buy for me its a great car and the staff was amazing and Sommer always was great to me thank you
I love this place and the people that work there ! I bought my van there and they treated me so good that i have also just bought a colbalt there as well ! I would tell anyone go to Sommer Auto for your next used car !
My daughter bought a car from them 2 weeks ago and the miles on the odometer did not match the keychain MILES and the next oil change sticker MILES.....The check engine light came on after only having the car for 2 days ....then come to find out just 2 weeks into having the car the TRANSMISSION goes out and they blame it on her putting rims on the car. The rims that came with the car were 16in rims and she put 18in rims on it...CRAZY. THE STAFF ARE HORRIBLE, THE MECHANIC TELLS BOLD FACE LIES AND SOMMER(THE OWNER) IS VERY DISRESPECTFUL AND A CON ARTIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Omg Thanks for all the reviews, I will not be going to this dealership, scary Im looking for a vehicle and the reviews alone help me steer clear. One good review on the entire site, thats sad, I can imagine the customer service.
Great friendly people. Great car deals will work with you.
I was reading the other post and I am very surprised, however I work for a very large company and I see social media postings like this all the time, and what I learned is something my parents taught me. There are 2 sides to every story. I have bought 4 cars from them and I have had a issue here or there but remember these are used cars. Rims person, did you have your mechanic check the car out first? Thats what I do. Be smart when you buy cars.Just think about it.I wanted to add to my post by saying I have been reading some of these customers that have so many complaints, and as I have said before, these are used cars, if you want a new car go get one, if you are looking at older used cars you need to expect some issues.Sommer Auto has gone above and beyond for me and my family so my suggestion would be instead of complaining go get a new car if not understand what market you are in.I want to add that Katosha you calling Sommer racist is ignorant. Stop pulling out the race card. It really isnt becoming. If you have a problem have you thought maybe to look in the mirror.
These people are complete criminals. I bought a car and within a week started having trouble with the transmission. I cant even check the oil level because they superglued the broken oil dipstick and the superglue broke. Now the dipstick is stuck in the pipe that holds it. They basically get the worst cars they can find, slap some garbage in it to make it look OK, then sell it. Do not go near this lot unless you like being lied to and ripped off. I dont understand how these criminals can stay in business!
The only place to buy a $1000 car for $5000!!
I HAVE PURCHASED CARS FROM THIS COMPANY AND HAVE DONE BUSINESS WITH THEM FOR 3 YEARS NOW. MY CARS HAVE BEEN GOOD SO FAR BUT MY CAR WAS STOLEN AND I CALLED TO ASK IF THEY COULD LOCATE IT SINCE THEY HAD A TRACKER ON THE CAR. SOMMER, THE OWNER WAS SO RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL. IT WAS MY FIRST TIME SPEAKING WITH HER EVER AND THE FIRST THING SHE ASKED ME WAS IF I WAS SURE THAT MY CAR WAS STOLEN AND IF A GIRL FRIEND HAD IT. I GAVE HER THE POLICE REPORT NUMBER AND SHE THEN MADE ME CALL THE POLICE DEPARTMENT TO VERFIY WITH HER BEING ON A THREE WAY CALL, THAT MY CAR WAS STOLEN BEFORE HELPING ME.I DIDNT UNDERSTAND WHY SHE WAS SO RUDE TO ME AND CAME OFF AS IF SHE DID NOT CARE TO HELP ME. THIS LEFT A VERY BAD TASTE IN MY MOUTH AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF I WAS OUT OF TOWN IN ANOTHER STATE. IVE NEVER HAD A LATE OR BEHIND BILL WITH SOMMER AUTO AND I NEVER HAD TO SPEAK WITH ANYONE, BUT TO MAKE A PAYMENT. BUT THE OWNER SOMMER WAS HORRIBLE AND DIDNT NOT CARE. SHE EVEN WENT AS FAR AS HANGING UP ON ME AND I WASNT EVEN RUDE WITH HER. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND ANYONE TO DO BUSINESS WITH THEM. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS.
Nice selection of cars, reasonable down payments, overall easy process.
Dylan is very professional & very nice person.
Not an honest company, shop some place else
THEY SELL LEMON CARS AND SOMMER THE OWNER IS VERY DISRESPECTFUL AND A CON ARTIST!!!!!!!!! DONT LEASE OR BUY A CAR FROM THE THE ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE HAS BEEN INFORMED AND WILL BE DOING AN INVESTIGATION!!!!!!!
Nice place 2 shop 4 a car
Great Customer Service!
Wow I never bought a car from here. But just reading all of the reviews. I changed my mind I am car shopping right now but I will not be going here....smh. This car lot business needs to do a lot of improvement. Just lost a customer that really needs a car.( just by reading the reviews)
I called summers auto about my moms house catching fire and that she had to stay in a hotel for a few weeks and I asked them if they could wait an extra week and that I would be in well sommer call me back and was so rude and disrespectful about it told me then WELL I guess your mom wont be driving now will she I would never recommend this place to anyone ever in my life if you read this post then you will understand what Im saying my mom is a sixty year old women and has never been late or missed a payment to them never again will I be nice to any of them
