I bought a Prius from Bobby as my first car purchase. I’ve had nothing but good experiences with Reliable Motors and my car. My husband bought a Cruze not to long ago but we later had some unseeable troubles with it. Bobby has been nothing but amazing through the whole process. When Car Max told us we’d need a new engine Reliable Motors just replaced a part. They have always been extremely honest and ready to help us through it all.

I had an extremely unreliable, unsafe vehicle, a small child, not great credit, and not a lot of money. And as series of unfortunate events are wont to do, mine continued to proliferate, yet these guys did not give up on me and continued to work with me until they were able to get me into a decent vehicle I could afford and rely on. As a result, I was also in the office frequently and met most of the staff. A more pleasant, helpful bunch of people I could not hope to meet. I was just in today with a minor concern, and they addressed it immediately, without making me wait, and it was awesome. They also offered me a bottle of water on a hot day & asked if I wanted it cold or room temperature. As I hate cold water, this tiny, nonsensical detail was enough to make me a customer for life. My brother referred me to them in good faith, and I would 10/10 recommend them to any friends or family in the market for car.

One of the most friendly and outgoing dealerships I’ve ever personally been too, takes their time makes you feel like they value your business. Stand up customer service, they went above and beyond for us. We went looking for an SUV got that and a forever place to go back and buy our cars from here on out. Bobby and Nathan are awesome! The new guy is the bees knees to he detailed our new car right before we left and it looks immaculate!

Both Jessi and Bobby at Reliable Motors were super helpful and easy to deal with in helping my daughter purchase her 1st newish (financed) car and leaving her feeling like she got a great deal! Every step of the process was more of a pleasure than a chore! We would do business with them again in a heartbeat when we are in the market again.

I purchased a vehicle from Bobby at reliable motors and he was so welcoming and made me feel like he genuinely cared about me finding a great reliable vehicle. He wasn’t trying to just make a sale. He was very genuine and patient with helping me with my first car buying process. And helped me through every step of the way and made me feel very confident in the purchase I was making. After I bought my car I did have a check engine light come on within the next two weeks!! I called Bobby right up and he told me “come right over, and we’ll look at it” and he had his mechanic check it out, it was light going out. That they changed, for me and on my way I went! He told me to come back if I had any other questions or if I needed anything, that he was there to help me! It was a great experience and I’d definitely recommend them.

As a pessimist concerning used car dealerships I am more than happy to say that I have purchased a vehicle here and I love it. Nathan, Bob, and staff are good people who will go the extra mile to make sure you are taken care of and taken care of well.

I’ve been suv shopping since mid April. Have went to several different car lots. Some were only interested in selling me a vehicle, and some offered no help at all. I stopped at Reliable Motors after seeing a suv they had advertised on Marketplace which was what i had been searching for. I was greeted by their sales associate Nathan who is very friendly and knowledgeable. Nathan didn’t try to pressure me into buying anything at all. I left to think about it for a day or so. I got sick that night and wasn’t able to go bk right away. Bobby the owner called me just to thank me for stopping by and giving them the opportunity to help me. I was impressed by both Nathan and Bobby. I felt they were both just trying to help me find what I wanted, I felt they was very helpful and honest. After couple weeks I felt better and decided to go bk to Reliable Motors because I felt they were the most honest out of all the car lots I had visited. I asked Nathan if I could just test drive couple different suvs so I could make sure I was making the right decision, I also asked several different questions and he was very friendly about answering all my question and letting drive a the different suvs. After that I decided on the Ford Explorer Limited which I was interested in from the beginning but just wanted to make sure it was still what I wanted. I asked if they could help me with some financing? Once again they was eager to help in any way they could. I knew getting me financed with a bank or credit Union was gonna nearly impossible. After a few phone calls back and forth with Bobby the owner and Nathan the sales associate they were able to get me financed with a credit Union with the payment I asked for. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Reliable Motors on NE 14th St. DesMoines. Very honest, friendly and knowledgeable men!!

Not very professional, wouldnt even write me up a temporary plate, paid all up front, he said you dont get 30 day tags when you pay all up front, thats a lie, getting the title takes forever, they dont even have them ready to give you even if you pay cash, what a joke

Bobby was very helpful, friendly, seemed very honest, and did not rush the sale. The car had a minor problem which required labor and parts. They made good on fixing the problem. The car was detailed as well. I would recommend this company.

I never bought a car so easy in my life! Ive owned several vehicles & each time the experience was so long and tiresome. Reliable gets straight to the point! I even liked the Salesman! They are very nice people! I hope to purchase from Reliable again! Im happy! My family & friends love my new Suv! Bobby see you again soon!

Ive known Bobby for almost 33 years. Hes a man of his word. Jessica is awesome too. They helped me when no one else, even my own bank, wouldnt. Their lenders are great too. Switching my account to that bank because of how nice and workable it is. My Chevy Equinox is a reliable and efficient on gas vehicle. Nice factory system too. They offer their customers a great deal on maintenance costs as well. Thanks for helping me with the next step to achieving my goals from the lender to the tags and maintenance!

We were looking for a vehicle for my son. We needed one that was reliable and affordable. He found what he wanted at Reliable Motors so we drove up to take a look. They were so friendly and helpful!! We took it for a drive and found a few things wrong with it. They immediately (by the time we left the parking lot) pulled it in and started looking at it. They called us the next day and told us they were fixing the things that we were concerned about! We took a couple of days to mull it over and figure out exactly what my son could afford and if this was the vehicle for him. I called back and told them what monthly payment we were comfortable with and they got us the financing that matched our budget. My son loves his vehicle and we are very happy with our experience!! They are such friendly, caring, honest people who love what they do and they do it well!! I wouldnt hesitate to buy another vehicle from them!!

Went car shopping the other week with the idea of just looking and testing cars and probably buying one in in a couple of months after research. Ended up buying a car within 2 hours! Reliable motors had exactly what we were looking for and in pristine condition. The price was right so we had to get it!!! They made the entire process pretty effortless and that definitely added to the experience of buying a car. Will be contacting them soon since we plan to buy another one :) Recommend 👌👌👌

Totally honest group that go above and beyond not only to ensure that you get the car you want, but continue to help out customers beyond just the sale. Bobby has been amazing with helping me out with maintaining good maintenance on the car I bought from them, and is always willing to work with me whether I’m buying or selling!Both my sister and I have had nothing but good experiences with Reliable Motors. You can’t go wrong!

I cannot say enough good things about our experience with them. They bent over backwards to make sure my husband got the truck he wanted and were more than willing to work with us. They made sure everything was perfect before we picked up his truck and were always willing to talk through the next steps. We will definitely buy our next vehicle from them and will refer anyone to them looking for a dependable vehicle. Thank you for making this the best and easiest purchase ever.

Reliable Motors is one of those dealerships you want to recommend to someone who isnt even looking for one. I bought my Dodge Charger from them. While I found that car online from them, there were plenty of fair priced vehicles in their lot. They are willing to go the extra mile for their customers. The service doesnt stop at the sale. Their shop is open for customers. The owner is very agreeable. Stop on by.

Words cannot even express how thankful I am for coming across Bobby Mauro at Reliable Motors. He went above and beyond to get me approved and into the car I wanted! After being denied for my bad credit Bobby still didnt give up, he went the extra mile and got me approved with a lower interest rate and lower down payment! I would recommend Reliable Motors to anyone looking to purchase their next vehicle. They really are home of the Guaranteed Credit Approval and they also treat you like family!

I am so thankful for such an honest dealership. So many times I have been taken advantage of because I am a female and because I was in need of a car. Not only did they help me find the perfect car for me, but helped me get set up with an amazing bank that helped finance my car. I finally have a car that I can afford and for a reasonable price and runs like a champ! No complaints here, just thankful.

I was involved in a car accident that totaled my car and left me very stressed. I came across Reliable Motors and thought why not? and Im so happy I went because the customer service and excitement to help find me a new car was unbelievably great. They made the process stress free and provided a great atmosphere! With the small repairs Ive had to do they were quick to get me in and you cant beat the price they give you for their in-shop repair shop.

Just purchased a GMC Acadia and I have had a wonderful time driving it. The car was more than I expected as in size and Power. Bobby is a great guy to work with to get a car. Randy the mechanic is just wonderful. Carlos was great to work with. I recommend people to check them out they are a great bunch of people they have a great selection of vehicles, they dont pressure you, they also give you suggestions on a vehicle that might suit your needs better. I am very pleased with all the service I have received. I give them 10 out of 10 on a rating they are great. Thank you so much Bobby, Randy, and Carlos for everything you have done.

To anyone buying a used vehicle Reliable Motors is the BEST place to do it! My husband and I shopped several places looking for a car for our son. Reliable Motors was by far the best experience we had in our shopping and buying of a vehicle. We have 4 children and have purchased many vehicles. We have not ever experienced such a friendly, professional, happy to go the extra mile service as we did at Reliable Motors. From our first contact to the last they were awesome! We LOVE our choice and so does our son! We had such a good experience with them that we took one of our other vehicles there for service - and once again it was a GREAT experience! THANKS to all of you at Reliable Motors you guys are the BEST!! JO

I purchased a vehicle from Bobby down at Reliable Motors. I was sketchy to the purpose of using another used car lot because to say the least i have had my fair share of lemons. I was greeted right from the start with a very helpful smile and a firm handshake. I seen no hidden agenda to try and slide extra fees into the purchase. As talking with Bobby and the mechanic Randy i was sold on there personality. They allowed me to test drive and check out every vehicle that fit my wanting. Ultimatley I choose a car that would be beneficial for my daughter and I. I have had zero problems and it runs like a champ. I was even given a call back a couple days later just to make sure everything was okay and was treated with great respect and courtesy. I have since recommended friends there way who have also purchased vehicles. They are not like your regular dealership who try and over push a decision. I will forever use this dealership to purchase my future cars or those in my family. When i say they go above and beyond i honestly mean it. You wont regret your purchase. Thank you Reliable Motors. Great bunch of guys.

This is the second vehicle Ive purchased from Bobby. Ive also referred several people there.

Review №47

After repeatedly having doors slammed in my face, or being told to come up with huge down payments or co-signers or mocked by salesman if I were to look at a particular vehicle which they assumed that I could not afford because of my challenged credit (this includes the locals who have daily ads guaranteeing financing). It was getting down to the wire and I needed a vehicle... a nice one... thought that I would be forced to go back to my previous dealership and forced into an ugly, plain vehicle with super high interest... and just when I was about to sign on the dotted line, I thought hmm... I need a moment to think about this. And during that moment, I happened to drive by Reliable Motors, thought Id stop in and check out things. It was the best thing that I could have ever done this whole year! I got an awesome vehicle for an awesome price from two awesome salesmen, Bobby and Mike! No games, no BS! It was a smooth no hassle/pressure sales experience, almost magical, because the vehicle that I purchased from Reliable Motors was hella newer AND better overall (100%) than the one that I was denied financing for or more money down needed (their neighbors). Just sayin... Im telling everyone! Make Reliable Motors your dealership for your next vehicle purchase, you will not be disappointed!

Reliable Motors is an amazing family friendly business that ensures and strives for customer satisfaction, building relationships and high quality service. I know the owner extremely well; he is professional, honest, loyal and would never steer anyone wrong with a vehicle. They are your #1 used car dealership in the Des Moines metro area. I highly recommend this business to anyone searching for a vehicle. In fact, Ive purchased used vehicles from there and they were in excellent condition. Still are.

First of all they sold me a car that I Ive had nothing but problems with and has broken down on me three times now I called them to bring my car in and they told me they had other cars up on the left and they could not take them down to put oil in my car so that way I could drive it home after work another time I came in and they told me my warranty that they sold me would not cover what I needed done and they did the work anyways without telling me beforehand and then said they were only going to charge me parts and not labor the mechanic told me how much the parts were and the lady in the office told me a completely different price which was three times the amount with the mechanic told me I was in told I basically had no choice but to pay or not get my car even though they should have told me my warranty wouldnt cover it and how much it was going to be before they did the work since I was under the impression that the warranty that they sold me that has yet to cover anything would not be covering these repairs either
