Lions Auto Sales

I recently purchased a Jetta from here, after looking around for a while i was getting so frustrated with salesmen /​car lots, and trying to get into a car that I know was reliable and would last for my son and I. I don’t have the best credit at all and they helped me get into something I could afford and I actually liked, I was feeling pressured by other lots to buy something I didn’t want. I am happy and will suggest Lions to my friends!

Be careful before you buy a car from them. My friend bought an AuDi from them and later we found that there was oil leak from the engine and all the rims were bend.
Just make sure to get the car checked by a mechanic and also they have an option to pay $ 175 so that u can use the car for like 3 days and return it if u dont like it.

Bought a Mazda from them and it was a dud. I asked them explicitly about any mechanical or engine issues and they said «no way buddy. This car runs perfect». Crooks. I’m serious. A complete dud. Engine is burning oil in a really bad way. I have to CONSTANTLY (2 a week) keep putting in more oil otherwise my engine will burn up and it’ll break. And yes, they knew about it because I noticed this was happening 2 months after getting the damn thing. They either knowingly sold me a fucked up car or they don’t have a mechanic that does a basic check of the vehicle (checking for an engine that burns oil is a basic check). Avoid these people. If not for selling me a dud then for being fundamentally dishonest car salesmen — go figure, right? Stereotypes through and through.

I bought a 2001 Audi TT from Lion’s Auto a year ago. The car runs perfectly despite having high mileage for an Audi (130k). The customer service is exceptional as they kept their words and helped me as much as they could.

This is hands-​down the best customer service I have received when purchasing just about anything! I came home from serving in the Army and needed a car for my family. I was skeptical about hitting the used car lots and getting harassed by the used car salesmen but at Lions, they are honest, laid back and not pushy about anything, the cars kinda sell them self, they have a great variety. Lions Auto Sales was easy to work with and they got me financed right away. I ended up purchasing a 2010 Kia Optima for my family and we love it!
Highlights:
— Five star customer service before/​during/​after the process
— Great deal compared to other auto brokers in Sac
— If you are looking to purchase/​lease a car, this is it!

I went to look at a car that caught my eye. After inspecting the car’s exterior I was given the key to start it up. Unfortunately, the battery was dead. I was asked to come the next day which I didn’t. I came about 2 weeks later. The car started this time and it drove amazing, until I got off the freeway. Once it got into 3^rd gear to slow down the car started jerking and from there on out at gear 2 and 1. It obviously had a transmission problem. And this specific car is known to have transmission problems, which is why the manufacture extended the transmission warranty up to 100K but this car had over that.
After that experience I decided to come another 2 weeks later and last time he said he would have their mechanic look at it. This time he said the mechanic drove it and didn’t notice any issues. Which I believe he was lying. I drove it again this time and it still had the same jerking issue. Also, this time the battery was dead! I give 2 stars because the guy was friendly. But I decided to pass even though I loved the black color, leather, upgraded sound system and moonroof :(
