Dealer response

You can't say much because you're NOT A REAL CUSTOMER! That's why you didn't hear back from us Mike from DealerRater. Whatever that is?!?! What I do know is that you give false reviews based on no real experiences. You have never been to our business or have any real interest in any of our vehicles. I think you're just some loser that has more time than sense.

Joe sells junk!! Check reviews!

Joe sells junk!! Check out the reviews!! But he says everyone is lying. He is a snake. I know first hand. Pretty much took my money. The Tacoma I bought lasted 7 months and 6,000 miles. But he claims I abused it🙄 weird that my last Tacoma lasted 21 years. I take very good care of my cars.

Dealer response

First, we sell all our vehicles "as is" and that is explained in writing several times when a vehicle is sold. That being said, we ALWAYS try to help our customers with any problems that might arise, even 7 months later! As we did with Marks truck, he called us after 7 months and said he blew the motor in the truck he bought from us and said his mechanic wants over $6,000 to replace it. I told him I was sorry to hear that, and I would do what I could to help. Then I made several calls and spent a couple hours trying to get Mark some help. I finally found a low mileage replacement engine with a 3 YEAR WARRANTY and my mechanics agreed to install it all for about $3,200 total. Saving Mark almost $3,000!! But that wasn't good enough, he expected us to pay for everything! Even though we weren't obligated to do anything! So that's the REAL story. We tried to help, and he refused it!

Highly Recommend!

My son needed a new(used) vehicle and we came across a beautiful truck with very low miles at Carolina Auto Connection. I contacted Joe and he was extremely helpful and courteous on the phone. We scheduled an appointment and headed out the next day to see it. The pictures didn’t do this truck justice! It was SUPER clean both inside and out. We purchased the truck that day and took her home. Unfortunately, a couple days later I had an issue with the truck. I contacted Joe and he immediately took care of it. I bought the truck “as-is” but Joe really backs his vehicles and helped me resolve the situation quickly. I would definitely recommend anyone looking for a quality used vehicle to give Joe an opportunity to gain your business. You won’t be disappointed.

09 Infiniti qx56

Good experience buying a preowned vehicle. Took care of some minor issues and seemed to shoot straight. Joe was very straight forward and would do more business in the future.
