Very responsive to my email inquiries. Extremely professional and addressed all of my questions in a very timely manner. Was willing to hold the vehicle while a traveled the 350 miles to their location. I contacted the dealer when I decided to purchase a vehicle located closer to me. I was inpressed with this organization.

We saw this car in our expanded search and I drove up to look at the car and test drive it. The staff at CarNation Motors were pleasant and cooperative. We did not end up buying this one, but it was on our short list.

Small dealership. Great service. Steve was called back right away and handled our purchase smoothly. Check engine light came on after purchase. It’s an eval issue. I called Steve and they told me to bring in ASAP for them to look over it and take care of the problem. Now that’s great service after the purchase.

Do not trust these jokers. Auction deemed the car as having frame damage but "they don't know anything and it's not on the carfax"

Response from current dealership:

Nicole, We would love to hear from you direct please call us at 814-558-3135. We have no record of you buying anything from us or even as a prospect. We have not sold any cars with frame damage nor have we received any complaints of doing so. I would think if this review was real and not a competitor attempt to discredit us (we have one that has been desperately doing so!) I would think you would have wanted to try to come in and get us to do something about it as opposed to bashing us and keeping the car. If this is real I will happily buy back the vehicle at full selling price plus $2
