I want to take a minute to rate my experience with Jeanne. As you can see, I have given her five stars. I talked to Jeanne fell in love with the way she handles her customers. She has a very smooth process from beginning to end. I want to give high praise to her for being my salesmen in the past. She is genuine and most of all, professional. She always gets the job done. Thank you
Overall best dealership experience Ive ever experienced. My salesman Jamal was very knowledgeable and helped with my search for the perfect car for me and my family. Great down payment and monthly prices. They definitely earned a loyal customer.
It was time for a new car after a decade of driving an old one! was very helpful and spent the day trying to find me the perfect fit! I got a beautiful sonata and love it! Super easy working with e wry one there. Very friendly. I would definitely buy another car from them
Great dealership and even better customer service. If you need help with getting a new car or have questions about a cars Taryon will be happy to answer them for you. Excellent person to handle whatever your needs are
We have bought many vehicles from here they make it a great, easy experience for us. When you are looking for a truck they always have the best selection with the easiest financing would not goanywhere else.
Extremely happy with everything from start to finish. Thank you for everything you did to get me the truck I wanted. Best dealership I have ever been to or purchased from.
Needed a car right way, but just started a new job this was one of the best buying experience I have had all I need was a job letter, 2 pieces of mail and my drivers license they got me into the right vehicle with the right monthly payment would recommend them to all my friends.
I had a great experience at Northwoods Automotive. Found the exact car I wanted in tip-top shape at a fair price with excellent customer service. I highly recommend!
I had a wonderful experience purchasing a used vehicle. The process was stress free and pleasant. The sales department was very thorough and knowledgeable. He was able to find me a vehicle that suited my needs.
Service Dept is EXCELLENT! Roger went that extra step to make sure to diagnose exactly whats wrong and then fixed it at a reasonable price. Because of that I had him perform more service work on that vehicle and Im now having multiple repairs done on two of my other family vehicles that Id been putting off, and Ive been recommending him to EVERYONE.I havent bought a car from Northwoods but will definitely give them a look in the future when my younger kids need a first car. As for the reviews about bad cars or lemons -- Folks, youre buying cars that generally are 10 years old or more, or have a lot of miles on them. Stuff breaks, and its not predictable. Once a car gets over 100k miles, you might as well figure on spending an average of $100-$150 a month on repairs (average meaning nothing for several months and then $500 one month, etc.). Keep that in mind when determining what you can afford for a monthly payment, as well as when they offer you a service contract. You might even consider negotiating a tune-up and changing all the belts and filters into the purchase. And please always remember to change your oil regularly after purchasing. Im sure Roger and Northwoods would do that for you at a reasonable price.
The whole sales staff is great! Not pushy, let me shop at my own pace. Even got my mom to come by and snag a car for herself. If they can convince her of a deal you know you found the right place!
This was the easiest dealership I have worked with. I was in and out in 2 hours. Darrell, my salesman, was efficient but also made sure that everything was covered at the best price in town. I recommended anyone to go see Northwoods Automotive.
Awful customer service! This place is a scam and all they want is money! They don’t care about the quality of the vehicles they sell or about customer service!! I would not recommend doing business here at all!!!! I purchased a vehicle (gave 3000 in cash) not even a week ago two days later the brakes started grinding really bad, took it back and now they want 100 bucks to even look and see what’s wrong with it and then they want me to pay to get it fixed! The owner himself is not willing to compromise or meet me halfway on anything! He just wants more money. The funny thing is I was going to come back in a month get a vehicle for my daughter but I’ll never do business here again. And I’m going to make sure non of my family or friends do. Now I’m trying to find someone (because I refuse to give them another penny) to repair rotors and brakes on a vehicle I just purchased 5 days ago.
I couldnt ask for a better first-time car buying experience. The process here was way easier than I thought it would be. A few simple requirements and I had what I was looking for at a price I could afford.
BEWARE❗️TREAD LIGHTLY.Put a down payment on a pick up. Engine went out less than 2 weeks of driving. They did offer an extended warranty contract to purchase, which I did. Michelle told me that I needed to pay for half of the repair up front and that it will be a two week process. This was on May 28th. There was very little communication about the repair. I called and left several messages. At this point I contacted an attorney and of course now, the truck is magically repaired and ready Aug. 2nd. By now, I’ve already had to purchase another vehicle and no longer needed this vehicle. All I wanted returned was half of the repair because Michelle told me this was a 2 week turn around and they know she told me this and they know she was wrong for telling me this. Now I’m out of the down payment and the repair money but I won’t be for long.
Very friendly nice and helpful welcoming professional if you’re looking for a car feel free to stop by Northwoods Automotive first.
This family owned & operated business gives you the best car buying experience! Five star treatment!
From start to finish, the process was easy, professional, and didnt take up my entire day!
The Staff Is Nice An They Get The Job Done But The Flaw Is The Car Warranty Only Covers Engine Other Then That They Are Awesome
I have been trying to get into an affordable car for over a month. I should have come to Northwoods Automotive a lot sooner than I did. They made those cab rides a thing of the past!
Got a break on the price. They have a clean lot and attentive staff. Got a fair price on what should be a good car. Time will tell. Mr German is a good easy guy to deal with and I thank him for his patience. The boss excepted a fair offer and did all the paperwork needed to drive home on a Saturday. I wont have to do any DMV stuff. Very professional.
Best car buying experience yet! The staff is extremely helpful, from purchase to payments!
Taron was extremely helpful in getting me in the car I wanted! Highly recommended!
Jay & Taron helped me find the car I was looking for in no time. I love my car and would highly recommend Northwoods Automotive to anyone looking to purchase one.
Paid my car off in 28 months at a payment that didn’t break the budget. Awesome place to do all your car business.
The sales department is very knowledgeable and very welcoming. Darrel and his team make sure they get you in the car you want at the price you can afford.
Super experience in the service department. Always fast and friendly.
Darrell went above expectations making sure I got my payment where I fit it in my budget. A+ on customer service!!!
Knowledgeable, friendly help from every Department. Its a one stop shop for you auto needs!
Northwoods Automotive always works with me on getting my payments made. Super friendly staff!
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Never thought I would say car buying was easy but this place makes it happen!
Havent had the car for 24 hours its out of service. They sell junk cars RUN!
Had a small but major problem wrong with my BMW. They kept me informed and fixed my problem in literally 2 days!! Thanks guys!
Very nice and friendly, very helpful..
Wish I had did my research on this place before going. The sales manager is a compulsive liar who also loves an audience when he tells his lies. I’m upside down in repairs on a truck I haven’t drove for 8hrs yet.
Jeanne worked for a week to find me the exact vehicle I wanted at the price I could afford. I couldnt have found that kind of help at other used car places.
Northwoods Automotive is the place to go for any of your vehicle needs. From sales to service issues to payments, the staff is nothing but helpful. They definitely have a lifelong customer here.
The friendly staff at Northwoods Automotive got me in the car I was looking for at the price range I could afford. Couldnt ask for better service!
I absolutely had the hardest time getting around before I got my car from Northwoods Automotive. I had to catch rides with any and everyone. After a while people grew tires of me asking and some even stranded me in the night. Im so happy they came into my life. I got a practically brand new car for a good price. My car only had 39,000 miles on it and it was. 2015 model. God is good. I am so happy that I chose Northwoods Automotive!
Purchased a 2013 BMW 530i and test drove it for 3 weeks before signing contract . After I signed my name 5 days later my vehicle broke down with close to 4k dollars in repairs. To all of my Supporters, Endorsements and loyal fans from every loving Bone I have in my body if you come to Charleston south Carolina do not purchase a vehicle from this place unless you are trying to put yourself in a worse situation. Lucky I have been blessed with better options. To afford way better vehicles with the Support and love of all of you .But to all my supporters and fans this is not the route you want to take. Love Swing
I highly recommend their repair shop! They have been doing our automotive repairs for a few years now. They are honest, fair priced, and have always done my repairs in a timely manner. Roger is great to do business with.
I purchased a Mercedes Benz from this dealership a week ago. The asking price was very reasonable and the vehicle its self was well taken care of. The sale process was very smooth and Darryl was very efficient in making sure I understood all my options. Theyre not trying to take your head of with the prices and genuinely want to see you in something you can afford. 5 days later there was an issue with the vehicle. Darryl went above and beyond to rectify it and made sure I understand the process step by step. Northwoods comes highly recommended!
Decent cars but way overpriced! There are a lot of hidden policies, regulations and fees that they dont tell you about because they just want to hurry and get you in car. Once you are off the lot that same great customer service and eagerness to help is gone!!! Dont bother calling up there, they never answer the phone or they put you on hold for long periods of time. Love the vehicles just not the company!
Darrell is awesome and always there to help. This is my second time purchasing a vehicle but this time things r different. If u call and let them know ur situation (financial and that u need more time to pay) they say they will make note but being 30 days late is cause for a repo. What does a customer do if they ask for more time?
I should be able to get my $1000 deposit back, due to mislead information. I brought a car in the past from you all and it went smooth. I got a second car and return it due to miss led information. These new staff is something else. Mr. Darrell is awersome, but these new staff is something else
Me and my husband got our 2007 Chevy suburban from them about 3 months ago. They were super nice and friendly, and joked around the whole time. I highly recommend them to anyone. They even fixed the crack in the windshield that was there when we got it.
I wish I would have read the reviews before I purchased my vehicle but I was desperate. Its been nothing but a run around from the start. The first issue came when I decided to cancel my warranty so much until I finally just called the warranty company and took care of it myself. I was told when that happened the money would be applied towards my principal balance which I almost a year later no one can tell me if that actually happened or not. Not to mention they wont allow me to apply that towards t amount that is due which any decent bank would do. Flash forward I was late on a payment which caused my car to be repossessed which I take responsibility for. I called to get the amount owed so that I can pay it to get my car back yet again I was given the run around. First I was told that I can pay what I have now then pay the rest and then I was told no you have to pay in full sorry. And then I asked when I pay you can I go and get my car after you contact the tow company I was told no only to have them tell me that its exactly what needs to be done. Honestly I cant wait to pay this car off so that I can be done with them.....never again. And its to bad that once I get my commission I can only pay two months in advance. Long store short I should have read the reviews first because they are right once they have your money the could careless about you as a customer.Update - After everything was said and done I ditched the hunk of junk and never looked back. What I didn’t mention in the original post was that the car had a faulty fan so there for the car would run hot within min of the car being idle. Long story short it just wasn’t worth the stress not to mention that the tow company wouldn’t even answer my calls when I attempted to pay them for the vehicle storage. Thankfully I know have reliable that has zero issues. Which thankfully they have nothing to do with.
I have two cars and they did me right no problem with none of my cars I will be back soon at I pay them off. They are good people and will work with you
Everyone was great friendly and so helpful... Answered every question never pressured me. Addressed any concerns i had.
Fast and efficient service, great selection. Hospitaliy is number one at this place. Would definitely purchase another vehicle here .Update : Second time purchasing from this place ! Very fast and friendly service once again. The staff was super helpful and made sure I was as comfortable as possible. Great vehicle selections to choose from !
They have a pretty good inventory will say they need better mechanics brought a 2011 charger with a known engine knock vechicle had 2 bad rocker arms drove it to local parts store had new part install in 45mins... Good purchase on my behalf....
My experience was very pleasant. Darrell and Eli made sure I got quality service. I would definitely recomend!
My credit sucks but I was still able to get a car off the lot! Stephanie was very sweet/helpful. I wanted to wait until i had my car a while longer to do a review but everything is great so far. Very patient & nice folks there. Thank you! Id recommend.
Heck of a place very nice customer service really love the people go shop with them
They tried to sell my father-in-law a 2008 Corolla with 163k miles for 10k who has dementia and we had to go back to the dealership when we found out and canceled the transaction. How could in good conscience would anyone do such a thing!!
North Woods Automotive is the best. Me and my husband are satisfied customers. We went there to look at some vehicles for our daughter and left very happy with a 2010 Mazda 6. Ed and Darrell really provided Awesome customer service. We will be referring friends and family. We look forward to doing business with you guys again.Thank You
These folks are crooks. Worst experience ever. Just look at what they sold me on top of a hassle with their staff. Terrible customer service. As said, these folks are CROOKED CROOKS AS A STAFF AND A BUSINESS.
Very nice and Pleasant people the cars are nice and clean and runs good I recommend anyone to go there
The truck I bought had everything I needed and Lisa my sales person did a great job helping me find what I needed.Then Roger in the service department did an amazing job in his attention to detail. He found that the truck was lacking a part and without me asking said he was taking care of it. There wasnt a lot of pressure to buy. It was a great buying experience . I feel comfortable in saying they actually care and try to help people I to reliable automobiles.
The worst service ever
Never will I get a car from them again rip off ...dont buy a car from them but I got a lawyer on to them
I had a great experience at Northwoods automotive. The customer service was excellent. Ed Wallace was great he took his time out to help me get into a perfect car. Thanks Northwoods automotive!
The guy who approached me on the yard was extremely nice, He really seemed like he was trying to help me find a car, and not just sell me one. The finance guy seemed he could care less. This car seller has a minimum payment of 275$ which to me is just dumb. They did have nice cars. Their mechanics are straight forward. 5 stars if their fiance people seemed like they knew what they were talking about sometimes.
Great car buying experience. Ed helped me narrow down my choices and I got what I wanted!! Strongly recommend that you get your vehicles from Northwoods Automotive!!
The sales department was awesome they work with you like u are family. The treatment that you get are genuine u dont get rush into anything they take their time with you I would recommend any and everybody to go to Northwoods Automotive be u go anywhere they will be your first and last stop I promise you that you wont go nowhere else. I really appreciate Northwoods Automotive
I use to live in Charleston and worked for Boeing. One of the Inspectors I worked with told me about North Woods and told me to talk to Darrel the owner. I bought several cars from him over the years and he always treated me fairly and with respect. This is hard to find in the car business. I would highly recommend them to anyone they treat you like family. I would buy there again if I lived in Charleston.
It was a great experience in all. Salesman was welcoming warm heartily to not just me but to every one there. It didnt take long to fill the paper work and to drive home with vehicle I wanted. Thank you Northwoods Auto.
Prompt attendance, customer-centric approach and in-depth knowledge & resolution of the mechanical issue that I brought to be fixed. I recommend the garage with full confidence. However, they need to put a television in the customer waiting lounge to make it more lively for the customers while waiting for their vehicles.
Northwoods automotive was a truthful blessing to me and my wife.Mrs.Rhonda and Mr.Darrell and the rest of the staff here are absolutely awesome. They bless my wife with a nice car to get a vehicle for her I truly love this place I made a promise to them I will come here for every vehicle I want and need. If I was anyone who can read this I give Northwoods automotive 5 stars and if I could give more they would have it so come on by and let them do you right so you can ride in something nice.
Was told they would work with my 1500.00 down payment ..went several times and told them I was coming back today to get the deal done ...I was lied to . The sales manager whom I had never met nor spoken with was the only person there and treated me like I was dumb or wasn’t told the things I mentioned by the owner. Had my hopes up that these were good people and would help me out like they said but today I found out that I was tricked! Glad I didn’t buy there now!-Kellie
MY EXPERIENCE AT NORTHWOODS AUTO SALE WAS AMAZING..... EVERYONE THERE WAS NICE, FRIENDLY. I WOULD RECOMMEND ANYONE TO GO THERE....... EVERYONE THERE WORK THERE IS SO HELPFUL I REALLY APPRECIATE THEM HELPING ME GET INTO A CAR. I THANK YOU FOR YOUR BUSINESS..
Don’t work with their customers when they’re having financial difficulty. You try to keep in contact with them but it’s extremely difficult to get them on the phone. Judging by the other comments, this problem seems to be apart of nearly all the issues with this business.
Process was smooth and professional. Picked out a vehicle and was approved and driving the same day. Staff was wonderful! I would recommend all family and friends!
If you are looking for a buy here pay here lot with a big selection, this is probably a good choice. No pressure, the gentleman introduced himself, explained how to read their codes on the windows, and told us they have a no pressure policy. He gave us a card with his cellphone number and told us that if we wanted to drive something to just call him and he would bring the keys. Pretty impressive. However, we were looking for a decent SUV that we could pay for with cash. Their cash car line was not very impressive. If you need place that will finance you no matter your credit, this might be your lot. Most cars are 2k down.
Northwoods Automotive is amazing! I will definitely be buying another car from them. Mr. Ed was awesome in helping us find our vehicle.
We brought my husbands care to be serviced by their service department. We were working with Roger. He is awesome!! We were told by AAA that the car needed $1400 for bearings on the car so because of the age of the car we got a few estimates and Roger quoted a much better price more than half less than AAA! So we took the car there and we were shocked when Roger called and said there was nothing wrong with the bearings and that what it needed was less than $275!! I will only take my car there from now on for repairs!! I never thought I would find an honest auto shop but I did!! Thanks Roger!!
I really enjoyed my experience at Northwoods Automotive. Rhonda Smalls was very helpful and was a joy to work with to find our family a vehicle! Also a big thanks to Darrell for helping us get into our truck! Thank you Northwoods Automotive for helping us find our new vehicle for our growing family!
They soldme A lemon and tried to place it as my own fault. They sold me a car that less than 24 hours of having the car the check engine light comes on it needed major repairs left me stranded a few times and they refused to allow me to trade it in or anything helpful. If your buying a car from these people (specifically the one on Dorchester Rd) please be knowledgeable about cars and be sure you don’t buy a lemon like I did.
My experience there was awesome. They have a great selection of vehicles that are very affordable. I will recommend them to anyone I know that is search of a car. I love my new car!!
Great service. Awesome selections and treated you like family. I recommend them and will refer others. They also work with you.
It has been one week and I had problems the next day the engine light came on the AC doesn’t work and I got leaks I got the car on Tuesday 06/23/20 and I called the next day and they made me an appointment for the following Tuesday okay fine whatever I get here and now nothing is covered this is on BS I DO NOT recommend at allllll like stay away it’s sad that in this pandemic that all anyone cares about is getting your money I mean at least be up front and let us know the cat needs work we would would appreciate it and maybe work with you and fix it maybe
Very easy! Very straight forward like things should be. I highly recommend these guys!!!
I enjoyed the service they are very respectful and very kind! They show their customers they really care about their needs. I would like to say if you are looking for a vehicle they are the place to go and inquire about one! I went with my brother and sister and I was blessed to drive away with two vehicles! If you ask me yes yes yes northwoods automotive is the place to go!!
Ive been coming here about 2 days for the pass 4 weeks looking for a truck to fit my 5 kids in. From the first day I walked in they were helpful, kind, and welcoming. They had about 5 truck in my price range to choose from. Finally today December 5th Im purchasing a 07 Tahoe with a smile. They got themselves a satisfied customer
Omgosh!!!! This dealership is the best!! Theyre patient and efficient! They sell you awesome cars for AWESOME PRICES! Whatever your budget is they will work with you! TRUST ME! Ive bought 2 cars from them and both are awesome Darrel, Ryan and the owner Duke are incredible miraculous salesman and you would love to go to this dealership I promise! My name is Renita Williams and I stand by this message!!!!!!!! Trust and believe Northwoods Automotive is the place to GO!
Great experience! Nice friendly people. Great shape cars also! Great prices with low down payments and monthly payments. Come check them out today! Grrreeeaaattttt!!!!!!
Darrell was really nice. Love the truck! Would definitely do business here again.
My husband was looking for a nicely used pickup truck with 4 doors. We have purchazed vehicles from brand named lots but was treated poorly when he didnt want to spend $30,000 on what he wanted. Ed helped him find a 2007 Avalanche with everything he wanted for $10,000 and Duke took our trade in without an issue. Darrell was fun and energetic in the fina ding office and very informative. Interest is a little high but selection is awsome and no pressure plus they help find what you want.
Sales dept was a pleasure, of course they’re getting paid for the sale.... on the other hand business dept in particular Stephanie is VERY DISRESPECTFUL... every encounter I’ve had with her was absolutely terrible. This being a family business and her being a family members I guess gives her the right to speak to people abrasive and rude. I will take my money else where where they appreciate customers. Never will I do business with NorthWoods Automotive
Lisa is great, open and friendly. She really let me wander, I felt no pressure, and I ended up getting the exact suv I wanted at the price I had researched was fair. It was a way better experience than I could have hoped for when buying my suv. Thank you Lisa and Northwoods automotive.
Fast right to it and my pass didn’t hurt my future I got everything I wanted. And she is a beauty 😍
I would not buy again. I took the car to a mechanic before I bought a car from them and I still have issues with the car. If you’re in the military, skip the hassle and lies. Just go somewhere else. You will pay more for the same car but probably have a lot less problems.
Fanatic buying experience, great cars, and wonderful service. Very professional.. go see and ask for Lisa. She is amazing.
I really had a great experience i got to pick the car i wanted they made me feel like family as soon as i walked through the door i would definitely refer people to come here they are great people and great staff.
I have to say the people at NorthWoods Automobile on Ashley Phosphate Road are wonderful and sweet people! Most definitely Miss Dena who was the first person who greeted me with open arms as if I was family!!I told her of a 2011 Chevy Cruz LT that they had on their lot... And how I have been eye balling it for weeks, anywho she told me what was going on and they had a program going on as well!!! So with no hesitation I put some money down on it!!So my dream car wont be taken away me 😊😂!!! But at this moment still putting money down on it.. So I can drive off into the sunset with my Chevy! I will recommend them to any family and friends in the near future who might move here to Charleston South Carolina!!
I love the vehicle that I have purchase. Very friendly ppl. This is the place to come to.
I agree Jack but there is one hood rat inside the business office that should go. The owners are good people and dont deserve to have trash screw there business up. FOLK I ADVISE YOU TO STEER CLEAR THANK YOU
Amazing experience. My friend and i switched the car from her name to mine . Darryl was amazing . He was fast at getting us in and Out even though he had an office full of People .When i asked a question he was honest . He was kind and courtous .Amazing will keep doing business with them .
Please go somewhere else. Dont let fancy talking and cars trick you. They only quick fix cars and it breaks down. When i was buying a car the engine light was on for thermostat and they said they will fix it and came back 10 mins later and said it was fixed all they did was turn off the engine light. Then wanted me to go threw warranty for $100 to fix it a week later when they had said they fixed it already. Do your research and find someone else or you will have a 90% chance in regretting your decision and losing all your deposit and money.
I have not yet made my first payment on my car and I am having transmission problems and an oil leak. I was told by Darrell that basically its my problem to pay to fix because Ive bought the car. They also sold me a car with almost bald tires. I picked up a nail and the technician told me there wasnt enough tread to plug it same with all 3 other tires. I have to pay 95 dollars for them to diagnose the problem at their own garage at the dealership officially then pay to have the problems fixed. Ive had my car just a month. Also signed up for their warranty and had called to see if I could change the date I was to put the downpayment on the warranty. I was told yes. When I took my car in to see about all these issues I was told I was behind in warranty payments that I was told had been changed. Darrell again told me I was not told that and that they dont change payment dates on warranties. Acted like I didnt know what I was talking about and I wasnt told what I was told. -Amanda M.
