Just got my newest ride, the Dodge Charger 2023, from my *** ***** here at Merlex. They do an amazing job making you feel like family, but that might be because they are a family owned business. Great customer relationship man I was shocked by their honesty. I've never had a group of salesmen care about the customer, especially at a dealership. Throw away your perception on car salesmen when it comes to these guys. Definitely the best in the *** for sure.Thanks again to ***** and the Merlex family!Merlex Auto Group Response

Tried to get a price from these guys for a week, and they refused to provide one. I was ready to pay their asking price, all cash, and they kept giving me the run around, telling me I needed to come in and meet with them before I could buy. All I wanted with the final price, so I could bring in a certified check. No need to "meet" or discuss. Huge red flag that they couldn't tell me the final price. After reading the other reviews, I'm lucky I didn't buy from them. They also claim to be A+ rated by the BBB, but if you look at the actual BBB site they are only a B. I asked them about this and they said the BBB was wrong. Seriously, if that isn't a red flag, what is?Merlex Auto Group Response

Clear communication would be to actually charge the price you show on your website. Also, clear and transparent communication would be to show your real BBB rating on your website. On your website, you claim to have an A+ rating, but as anyone looking at the real BBB site can see, you don't.Of course I'm going to post my review on multiple review sites. Not everyone reads the reviews on BBB, so it is important for people to see my review, based on my real experience with your business on other review sites. Looking at all the other reviews and based on my experience, it is very clear that Merlex has a business practice of advertising one price and then adding hidden and undisclosed fees. You didn't make "every effort" to provide me with the actual price. The hundreds of other reviews from most of your other customers shows that this is just the way you do things. And offering people a free tank of gas if they give you a "good" review doesn't change all the other reviews. Please stop trying to take advantage of people.Review from Joe P

I bought my **** From these SCAMMERS. You have to pay extra for any warranty. I specifically asked about only doing one credit inquiry, they did 6 of them and I have excellent credit. They are unprofessional, bunch of young guys work there yelling throughout the office. I would recommend reading ALL their reviews carefully. They have a low rating for a reason. I will never buy from GHETTO DEALERSHIP again.Merlex Auto Group Response

Bait and switch at their ******* Amin Kandahari, *** ******* and APOLLO!This is the epitome of being a shady car ***********, I send them my information about financing a vehicle. They accepted and said it was alright to proceed.This was a 2019 dodge ram I was trying to ****** wife and I got there on a late Friday august afternoon of 2024.I had already sent all my financials and personal info. Apollo was like you can come on down, you are accepted!I was happy to know our financing opportunity was *******, my wife and I can down. We were met by a gentleman called Apollo he seemed like a gentleman at first, but lo and behold he was just another desperate used car salesman.Even though we were accepted for a down payment and paperwork signage, a week later they called us in saying our docs were false and made ***** took them **************************************Apollo calls me and says hey we have some floor mats and an extra key we would like to give ******, I went to visit them to see what this was about. I was in the middle of my workday, I had two suitcases I needed to deliver at the ************They unloaded all my things from the truck and then said, you better come up with more of a down payment or else youll lose your downpayment.I mean, the car had a value of $18,990, but then went up to $24,990 saying we had bad *********, they took the car away from me even though they had accepted our payment and financial info.Once I brought the car back in they went from $18, 990 19%apr to $29,990 with 29% Apr!Now, Kahim Kandahar is well aware of how his team operates. Apparently they like keeping their customers down payment just because of certain discrepancies.That Apollo guy (salesman) was truly after his money. He wanted us to give him the $2.5 down payment, but we gave it to *** *******, that to this day him and Kahim dont want to give back our down payment.Review from Charles O

I recently purchased a pre owned car from Merlex Auto Group , and the experience was amazing. **** and ****** were incredibly helpful and patient throughout the entire process. They walked me through all the financing options, ensuring I understood everything clearly. They also took the time to explain each feature of the car in detail, making sure I felt comfortable with my new purchase.Their dedication to customer satisfaction truly stood out. Thank you, for your exceptional service. I will definitely be coming back to *********** Group in the futureReview from Kwame C

This Dealership is LAME ASL DO NOT I REAPEAT DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM. If I could give negative stars I would. I bought a car with them a month ago and they been giving me the run around about things they told me theyd take care of ever since. *** is CAPTAIN LAME?? hes supposedly a manager but lacks customer service skills and doesnt respect women. The dealership told me theyd send my title to the bank and they never did ?? and when I called to ask them what was going on *** (who has zero respect for women), tried to belittle me and my mother while cutting me off and talking over me but when my dad got on the phone his entire tone and delivery changed??. Also they made me write them a good review before leaving the dealership so they could fill my tank up and never did???????? pls take your money elsewhere ibeg. The rest of these reviews are fake they make ppl write them before leaving???? this was my first time buying a car and ik this aint how its supposed to go?? this place aint just sketchy its the entire drawing pad!!!! again take your business LITERALLY anywhere else !Review from Muhammad A

We came all the way from ************ ******** hoping to look at a GL 450 that we saw online. We immediately fell in love with it, after having looked at several others. Mr. **** showed us the car and its features and even compared some others, **** was very helpful through the whole process. *** and Mj the finance department went above and beyond to get us a good approval based on my situation and We were only there for only 2hours. Lovely experience and a stressless purchase. Thank you all!
