Do not touch this place with a 10 foot pole! I had a horrible experience buying my first car from choice auto sales. Being young I was ready to rush into a car blindly, the owner saw and took advantage of this opportunity. I took the vehicle on a test drive and all seemed well, she assured me many times that the vehicle was in great condition and had even driven it herself for awhile. After buying the vehicle I drove it for less than a week before the check engine light and transmission light came on. This was no coincidence, they had cleared the codes before I purchased the vehicle. I then proceeded to take it in for an inspection to see if i could fix said problems. Turns out the car needed about 5,000 dollars worth of work, more than I paid for it. I decided after having invested my down payment that i would try to fix the car up to at least acceptable mechanical condition. It only got worse from there, after fixing some of the problems things kept popping up and springing leaks. After so much frustration i finally traded it in for the rest of my loan value, i ended up loosing 3,000 dollars on this vehicle between my down, monthly payments and repairs. I realize some of this was my own fault for not having the car inspected previous to purchase, but the owner of choice was very dishonest and assured me over and over that it would be a great vehicle to get me off to college and that it was in great condition. If I could I would give this 0 stars.
