A few days ago my 20 year old daughter purchased her very first car. After scrimping and saving for 2 years she managed to save up $5000 which to most people buying cars does not seem like s lot - but it was her life savings and she worked hard for it! Anyway, $5000 is not much for a car and she knew with her budget, her options would be limited. So she wasn't expecting much. Anyway, after test driving 4 over priced pieces of ****, she was beginning to lose hope. Then I went online and found a 2011 Ford Fiesta SES fully loaded (complete with leather seats) at Westside Sales for asking price of $4950. It had somewhat high kms (204000). So I called the dealership on Saturday afternoon to ask if we could test drive it on Mondsy. The problem was that we could not get there before 5:00 pm and my daughter was afraid it would be gone by then so I asked the owner (Lani) if he would PROMISE not to show it to anyone else until we got there. He assured me he would. True to his word, when we arrived on Monday the car was held for us! My daughter wanted to test drive it snd when I asked how long she could drive it for Lanny's response was "we're here until 8:00 pm". TRANSLATION - Take as much time as you need. We drove for about 40 minutes and my daughter decided she loved the car. So we decided to purchase it. Since Lanny was unavailable at the time, we dealt with Mark. We sat down and he asked what we thought and my husband told him we were interested in purchasing the car but were only prepared to pay $5000 cash ALL IN. Mark didn't smooth talk us or "play the game", he simply said he would check with Lanny. So he called Lanny and said "they want to buy the car for $5000" and Lanny said if we could pay $5085 instead it was a deal. So needless to say, for $85 more, we accepted! No pressure, no hassle, no guilt, no haggling, no "tactics", no game playing, just simple, FAIR, no-nonsense, HONEST, straightforward sales. Deal was brokered in less than 3 minutes. Lanny's words to me were "As long as Ali is happy, that's what is important". He and I stood watching through the office window as my daughter happily inspected her new car and I saw the smile on his face as he watched her! At the end, when we were finally leaving after having the vehicle insured, I shook Lanny's hand and thanked him - he leaned over snd out his arm around me and gave me a squeeze (hug). What a wonderful experience from start to finish. Finally, HONEST used car dealers. I highly recommend you check them out if you are looking for a quality vehicle for a reasonable price and NO GIMMICKS. I GUARANTEE you we will definitely purchase our next used vehicle from Westside Sales!
Car I bought here completely fell apart within 1 year/15k kms, easy driving. A/C system goes out a month after purchase last sept 2022, figured it needed a recharge, I leave it for the winter , come spring, “whole A/C system is rusted through and is literally unfixable”. This happened one month after buying the car. Black leather interior. Yup. It was brutal last summer to say the least. Drivers seat motor worked for days. Literally. After that you had to yank on the steering wheel to get the seat to move forward, every time I got in and started the car I had to do this, because it had “easy exit”where the seat moves back every time you get out. Fun times. Also the car started going into “limp mode” and completely cutting engine power for like 20 minutes, weeks after buying it, and the only fix was to let the car sit for a while and start it again. Car was sold to me with wrong size battery and wouldn’t start ten minutes after getting it home, thankfully my friend was very car savvy and knew what the issue was. We put a new battery in it from Walmart, cost out of my pocket. I’ve put tons of money into trying to get it “fixed” over time with no luck. It’s worth literally nothing now because the A/C is unfixable and I took a absolutely massive loss now of over $5,000 on the car. Had to get a new vehicle since it got to the point you couldn’t drive that car for more then 10 minutes in warmer weather without it going into limp mode and cutting power. Absolutely don’t buy a car here. Nothing but issues from day 1.
Went here to look at a cargo van that their ad said was safetied. Took it out for a test drive and noticed the wipers were damaged and the blower wasn't working. Though that would fail a safety, I didn't think too much of it. I told Mark about it and when I went back again to take the van to my mechanic to get it checked out, the wiper blades were fixed, but the blower was still not working. My mechanic got the van up on the hoist and found the emergency brake did not work, the abs brakes were leaking fluid, the rear rotor shields had deteriorated to the point of crumbling and falling off, and the engine had dropped and was sitting on the axle. Obviously those are things that should not pass a safety. It turns out the safety was performed in their own shop, so I'm not sure how they could not have known about these issues. They told me when I brought the van back to them that they had given me the wrong safety. The one they gave me was for a similar van. However that does not explain how this van passed a safety. I wasted hours and money checking out a van that I thought had a clean safety. I'm not a mechanic and I noticed two things that should have failed a safety. Thankfully I took it to my mechanic who revealed the numerous other failures on the vehicle. A clean safety is worthless if the inspection has been done so poorly. All I can say is make sure you check the VIN numbers and make sure they match the safety they give you, and take the vehicle to your own trusted mechanic before buying here.
I decided to take the car from them and check with my mechanic, here are the points he found: 1. The rear right headlight does not work partially. 2. Both front lights do not work partially. 3. The brakes are rusty and barely meet the standards. 4. left front wiper block torn 5. rear multiple flange leaking 6. rack and pinion internal loose. 7. L+R front control arm vertical bushings torn 8. flex pipe leaking 9. R+L rocker panels more than 1/4 deep dents With these problems it is impossible to get a safety, but when I mentioned this list to them, I heard back that it is a used car and "what do you want?", I want it not to break in a week, I understand that it is used and there may be problems , I'm not saying anything about the scratches that have already rusted, the varnish that has come off a little, and other minor points, but this car can't pass the safety inspection, and they just passed it, and the odometer was twisted by at least 20,000 km. Car was Hyundai accent GL 2013 UPD: Are you kidding me? All 3 mechanics can easily see that not all bulbs are working, in turning lights. The car IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE.
Great people to work with! Sales staff and owners are friendly and patient. They seem to want to ensure any sales transaction they undertake with a customer is not rushed. I wanted to inspect the undercarriage of the vehicle I bought from them. Without hesitation, they put the vehicle on the hoist and gave me as much time as I wanted to feel satisfied with my review of the underside of the vehicle. I would recommend this car reseller to anyone looking for a premium used vehicle. I had stopped in on three different occasions to view the vehicle before test driving it and each time Nic, the salesperson, gave me quality time and yet space enough to really check the vehicle out. Buying used is the way to go to begin with and buying from Westside Sales is the place to shop. At Westside Sales, I did not feel like one of their customers, I felt like I was their only customer and they showed it by their conduct from start to finish. I do not provide accolades easily, but this business certainly deserves it!! Alan Schroeder
I didn't use westside sales for a car purchase or service, however I crossed paths with them as they are a drop off point for a shipping company I had contracted. Needless to say the shipping company was awful but Cliff went out of his way to make a few phone calls within the industry on my behalf when things went sideways. Something he absolutely didn't have to do as I was just a stranger at the other end of a phone call for which he owed nothing. He could have easily just not gotten involved. Absolute great guy and very kind. There needs to be more kind people like this out there who care about others. If he cares enough about a random stranger to extend some help and some of his time becoming a customer of his should be a no brainer.
I bought my vehicle from westside a year and a half ago. Awesome service. Really helpful guys. And just a few days ago I was stranded when my battery died in -45 weather. I called westside and they sent someone to my location to boost me so I didn’t have to pay for a tow truck, and got it to their shop. They changed my battery and had me on my way all within a few hours! And I managed to still make it to work on time. They really went above and beyond to help me that day. I’m very grateful. Really great group of guys working at westside. My family has been dealing with them for car sales for years. Great service guys. Thanks again!!
Went to look at a car with my daughter. They were really quick and friendly. Let us take the car out without grilling us about budget and other cars we were looking at. While it wasn't the perfect car, I pointed out a few things that needed addressing and they said they would look into it and get back to us. I will happily go back in the future. I hope they address the issues I brought up. The car we looked at was a really good specimen for what we were looking for. Would have been 5 star if we bought. Will update when I here back. Thanks Bryant!!!!
When we purchased a new home, instead of renting a moving truck I stopped by Westside and looked at a very modestly priced Ford Ranger. The guys assured me it was in good shape, I took it for a test drive and bought it. Long story- short...that little truck ran for years without an issue, more than earned it's cost and was a great purchase. I found the dealer honest and there was no pressure at all to buy. I will be returning for our search for a softball travel vehicle. Definitely worth giving these guys a chance.
these guys are crooks, they sent a vehicle to auction and did not declare any issues. the entire front end needed to replacing for safety. they even went as far as covering the rust in wheel well with tar and sent it to auction knowing whoever buys it has no recourse because things at auction are sold as is. Dealers should be held to higher standards. I'd be careful buying from them, even if they sell it with a fresh safety you never know what they are covering up under the fresh undercoating
The service I have received at Westside Sales over the past 8 months that I have had my car has been second to none. Superior service is an understatement when describing how well Cliff and the staff have treated me when coming into the shop. I purchased a used Subaru Impreza Outsport Sport in April of 2013 (at a very reasonable price) and it has served me very well over the past 8 months! I would highly reccomend Westside for your next vehicle purchase.
Bought a car from these guys There was a problem on 1 tire they immediately got it fixed for me(i found the problem like 1 wk later) Very nice cooperative Profesionals Again they are very helpful guys ( i been to there place to ask for advice they gave me free part (i couldn't find even at dealer (have to order it and wait 2 weeks). They are really generous. I'm really speechless. Thank you all God bless you.
Westside Sales is not just about selling cars! I brought my 2006 Mustang convertible into Westside Sales to do a safety and complete some other work I needed done. These folks are the real deal! They did a great job with the work I needed done, and the safety and the work were completed at very reasonable rates. I would highly recommend them!
These guys have gone above and beyond to take care of me, from driving out with new tires when my spare blew a flat to helping me pick out a new car when my previous one was in a wreck. Super reasonable and flexible when my bank put a 10 day hold on my MPI cheque. Very thankful for their service! Would definitely recommend them and buy again!
We purchased a vehicle through Mark two years ago. He took the time to listen to our needs and found us the perfect vehicle. It was fairly priced and in excellent condition. In the past 24 months we have had no issues with it. If you are looking to buy a used vehicle I highly recommend Westside Sales. They will take good care of you.
Westside is much more than just car sales! They do a great job servicing your vehicle too. Very reliable, good prices and they will be honest with you and what your car truly needs for service. I always get my service done here and it’s been a very pleasant experience. I Would recommend this place to anyone!
Wonderful customer service, a guy name mark was exceptionally helpful throughout the period of acquiring the vehicle. Except couple of months later I had to fix some issues in the vehicle and I was charged nearly half the price of what I bought the car for. That I felt was extremely wrong.
Over 30 years in business at the same location tells me they are doing something RIGHT! My son needed a car and Lanny was the perfect no-pressure, just-right kinda guy to deal with. I would definitely recommend Westside (and Lanny) to anyone looking for a pre-owned vehicle.
I was very disappointed in the communication of the sales team. For 3 weeks I stopped by to check the status of a vehicle that was getting safetied. Half a dozen times I was told I’ll check and call you back. Never did. Finally I stopped calling. What a waste of my time !!
I highly recommend going to West Side Sales to service your vehicle. They not only have a great shop rate compared to big dealerships - they also don't try to sell you things you don't need and will tell you honestly what services your vehicle requires.
My husband bought a car here about 3 years ago. Couple days after the purchase the check engine light came on... The dialer didn't respond to our complaints. The car was badly painted just to hide the rust. Disgusting service.
Doris and Cliff fabulous to deal with. No pressure out of province purchase of vintage car. They were a tremendous help a year later when I ran in to hassles with interprovincial registration process. Many thanks!
If you want slick sales gimmicks and really cool showrooms, this is not the place for you. If you want down to earth, friendly people that are trying to make an honest living selling cars, then check them out.
A great place! No pressure, no gimmicks, no hidden fees. I dealt with the same person from start to finish. No checking with the manager. I highly recommend Westside. Drop by, you will be glad you did!
Great service and friendly staff,last year we purchased 2 vehicles from Westside Sales and i was amazed,no pressure to purchase anything,they will find your the perfect vehicle for a good price .
Nice people, process was very straight forward. Don't trust their mechanics as they passed a safety with brake pads worn to metal. Changed them about a month after purchase. 3 stars.
Westside Sales is a great local used car dealership. Very friendly staff. Quality service and no push sales tactics. Couldn't be happier with our purchase from Westside Sales Ltd.
Bryan helped me trade in my car. Guy is very personable. Relaxed. Let me take my time with being attentive to answer my questions. While not being overbearing and rushing.
Great experience! Had a couple of old vehicles, no problem accepting the trades, and they work with me effectively to solidify a deal that worked for everyone.
Lanny is the bomb! He found me the perfect car & I couldn't be any happier. All of the staff are very accommodating and friendly. Wouldn't go anywhere else :)
Cliff and Lanny are great guys. Good cars, good prices, and no pressure sales tactics. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a good, used vehicle!!
Mark was amazing! He was more than happy to work with me finding just the right vehicle and went the extra mile to make sure I was completely satisfied.
Looked at and test drove a Van here. Nice salesman no pressure would've bought the van except we found a Van that had a few more options that we liked.
Excellent prices. Very friendly, fair and honest staff. No hidden fees, no haggling. Provide carfax and safety sheet. Clean, well detailed stock.
The staff were super friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable, and the vehicle prices were more than reasonable! Overall, it was a great experience!
Very friendly sales staff local and trustworthy with a great product quality! They are more than willing to help you find a car for your needs!
Very trustworthy dealer. My daughter bought her first car here a couple of years ago. I always visit when I am looking for a new used car.
Based on reputation, we had great great expectations and they delivered. Thank you Mark for helping my son find his first ride. Cheers!
