If you ever consider buying a car from Crest Auto Sales, please be smarter than I was. My kids helped purchase their first car April 26. The car dealer was informed the car was being purchased for two 16 year olds and that they were putting their money they earned and saved towards this purchase. The day after we bought it the check engine light came on. Took the car to O Reilly to get the code read. The car dealer was informed the next day and assured my ex husband that they would order the part. Never heard from them again. This past Friday (May 30), the car started sounding terrible. The car was taken for an oil change, the oil was old and had metal shavings in it. Again called the dealer and got several stories. The "partner" bought the car and it was his fault. Then since we were past the 30 day warranty we would need to pay out of pocket for a new motor. Then we were basically told our kids drove it too rough. We have Life360 and get driving reports that show the speed driven, rapid acceleration and hard braking. Basically two teenagers were taken advantage of, and then blamed for a car becoming undrivable within 34 days of purchase which is disgusting behavior. If we want to pay more out of pocket to get a new engine we were told we could do that. I do not trust this dealership to fix this car. My ex husband offered to sell the car back to them (at a big loss to my kids), but the dealer doesn't do that, likely because it's junk.The car dealer gave my ex husband the runaround and several excuses. This is a good lesson to have a car checked out by a mechanic and my kids now know that car dealers can be very untrustworthy. A five thousand dollar lesson learned, and now we have a piece of junk car to dispose of. Believe the negative online reviews, the people we dealt with after the sale were definitely not the people who sold the car.

If I could give zero stars I would. After the vehicle was purchased the check engine light come on for a catalytic converter. After taking it to a dealership it was evident that it had been reset prior to selling it. Kevin and his staff are VERY unprofessional and straight up rude. There is nothing worse than thieves and liars. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

I bought a vehicle there from recently that came with the 30-day warranty. When things started going wrong after 2 weeks I called Kevin and he was a completely different person from when I talk to him before I purchased the car. He basically gave me the runaround until the warranty wasn't valid anymore..... Him and his car lots are by far are the worst I've ever dealt with.... Please make sure you stay clear of this car dealership because all they do is take advantage of people and and lie to them.... Just to sell a car

I've had nothing but bad luck with the owner Kevin. He finances his cars from the auction. So he doesn't have titles in the office. It has taken him months to get cars purchased from that lot registered. Please do the right thing, buy a car from a private seller.
