Do Not shop At PLATINUM MOTORS in LEESVILLE, LAPeople are doing all sorts of stuff nowadays.12/13/2023Buyer Beware!!!Shady Salesman, SamI purchased an 2019 Audi A3 on Tuesday 12/12/2023. Test drove it on Monday 12/11/2023. Sam was nice polite & pleasant until there was an issue!! Check in hand for the full amount on Tuesday & drove home. While driving back to Lafayette(over 2 hrs drive)I noticed a vibration. I called Sam, the owner & explained. He said just come back when I have time & whatever the issue was he would take care of it. He was adamant it was the tire balancing as he previously stated he had put 2 new front tires. I returned on Wednesday (12/13/2023) afternoon & was directed to a tireshop about 1 block away (Tire Max)from sales lot. I arrived at 4:50pm as I was told I needed to get there before 5pm. Guy looked at car & said I needed brakes & rotors, Sam had told him he would take care of whatever the issue was. But I watched tire guy walk around the side of the building out of sight as he made a call to who I guess was Sam. He then directed me to talk to Dam so I called. Sam said brakes & rotors are wear & tear parts & he wasn't going to pay for it. He then said he would buy the b&r & I could find someone to put them on...NEGATIVE!!! I drove there& after several mins of debating the issue with him talking to me in an elevated tone, I asked Sam what was really the issue with the car. SAM basically said the tire guy(he sent me to at Tire Max) was an idiot & did not know what he was talking about & only wanted to make money. This the Sam guy who put 2 new tires on the car before I ever laid eyes on it. Keep in mind I saw the front rotors after the tires were removed & and they were really bad w front brakes were worn.But there was no grabbing when I drove the car just a heavy vibration starting at 40/50mph& it increased as I Increased speed. So after debating he agreed to have his mechanic ck it the next morning but said if that mechanic also said b&r he was not paying. I left! Went straight to Navy Federal, requested stop payment on the $19,420 check which they were eager to help & got right on it. I sat & called my other bank to stop payment on 2checks I wrote $570 car balance & $2180 for ttl. It was well after 6pm by then, so I got a hotel, called my daughter to come pick me up in the morning, cleaned out my stuff, drove car to his lot arriving at 0845 on Thursday, called for a police stand by assist & dropped his car to him(made a video to show the car was not damaged in any way by me). It was very evident that something was very wrong with the front end which he refused to admit. This man yelled at me, refused to drive it on the highway to get over 40/50mph & treated me horribly after receiving my money!!! He did drive it around the corner about a quarter of a mile & insisted the tires needed balancing. My feelings are bruised. My trust & faith in folks has been challenged once again. But with the grace of God, I arise victorious. I have my eyes on a 2024 Trailblazer. Undecided right now has I am still emotional from this ordeal. I will be posting everywhere & doing a Google rating & comment. So yeah please share!!! SHARE SHARE SHARE!!! I feel bad that he has done or will do this to others.Buyer Beware

Purchased a used suburban from here. Purchase experience was pleasant. Minimal haggling. Original pricing was very fair. Sam is exceptionally kind. I can’t say enough about how easy and nice purchasing a used car from here was.

Sam is the man. Won't go to any other car dealer. Great prices and honest cars. He also has another lot in Alexander! 30 min drive away.

I drove 2 1/2 hours to Platinum Motors to check out the car and left with it 2 1/2 hours later, it was completely worth it. I purchased a 2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe from Sam and I am in love with it. The car was very affordable ($3,000) under the sale value. The car is fully loaded (sunroof, push to start, remote start, the dash is clear, the car is in an unbelievable condition). Sam is awesome, he’s patient, understanding, and straight to the point. I would recommend this dealer a thousand times.

Purchased a car from here last June a 2014 Mercedes & since then I’ve had to have a sensor replaced, a battery & a thermostat. Recently my car shut off in mid traffic, I called roadside to have my car towed to the dealership where I was inform the my engine would need to be replaced @ 62000mi . I called him & told him what was happening with the car & he instantly got defensive about the issue. Me not having the car a whole year & already needing an engine at 62000 is unheard of! He wasn’t any help. Now my car in in the shop waiting on an engine which is 11,400, the car cost that much! I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND you go elsewhere to purchase your vehicle ! I don’t usually write reviews but this one here needs to be reviewed!

It has been a pleasure to deal with Wisam, his customer care is 5 stars and the vehicle he delivered is in outstanding conditions and I bought it from Florida! I didn't visit his shop. Thanks again and I am positive you will get more and more customers. Ciao from Florida

Dealt with Sam and negotiated a good price on a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport. Had a few bumps getting to where we agreed but in the end it all worked out. Great person to do business with and will again.
