Harrison Auto Consultants

STAY AWAY from these guys, I’m serious. I purchased a 4runner from these guys and on the surface it looked decent but after a few days I realized I got screwed over. The headlights did not work, the horn did not work, the truck was completely rusted out and they covered it with black spray paint, the radiator was cracked and they pumped it full of alumaseal which clogged the entire coolant system and many many other problems, too many to list. The mechanic they had working on it is a hack who over torqued everything and just put bandaids over serious problems. When I called in to ask about making it right they just played dumb and said they didn’t know anything and to talk to their mechanic, no thanks. After less than a week of owning the truck the patch they did on the radiator gave out and it blew up on me. I took the truck into toyota and have been dealing with them on repairing this thing for months. Long story short I have to replace a lot of parts including the entire cooling system including radiator and there is so much damage to the engine that it’s cheaper to just replace the engine entirely. This is costing me over $ 6,000 to repair even with toyotas shop foreman feeling so bad for me he’s giving me insurance discount prices at $ 50 an hour labor which is dirt cheap. These guys will sell you a piece of crap at a high price with a smile on their face, I don’t know how they can sleep at night.

First of all no it did not leave with a clean bill of health it left with serious issues that you guys hid from me. Second you did not offer your mechanic at your expense, you guys played dumb when I called in about my headlights not working the day I bought the truck and said your mechanic would look at it but couldn’t tell me if I’d be charged or not and you even tried to tell me to just fix it myself. Your mechanic is a hack, the work he did do on the truck was mostly hiding serious issues and the work that you advertised he did to it was all done wrong and had to be fixed. The 6000 was not an all at once charge, it started with the radiator blowing up because it had a crack in it and your hack just pumped it full of alumaseal which is what caused most of my issues as it plugged the entire engine and cooling system. Even if your hack didnt do it you should have caught it. I kept having issues due to this and many other things you hid so by the time the engine needed replacing I was already a couple months into fixing the car and had invested so much money it was a bigger loss to ditch the truck than to fix it. As we speak I now have more issues that came up and I now have to fix, my ball joints and half axles need to be replaced and when you sold me the truck the shocks were completely blown which I had to replace already. Also all my U joints were completely dry, obviously your mechanic has no idea what he’s doing and doesn’t know 4WD vehicles. Go ahead and keep defending your atrocious actions and I’ll just keep posting the enormous list of things wrong with the truck you sold me that you either hid or didn’t fix.

I had been looking for a 3^rd gen 4runner for my son for 3 months. Found Harrison Auto near my office and have to say they are super awesome! Family owned small local business — knowledgeable, honest, super easy and stand behind their product (had one little thing that needed fixing and they took care of it no problem). I have already recommended them to several friends.

I’ve purchased my last 2 cars from Harrison Auto, and I plan on continuing that relationship for many more cars to come. The reason is they take care of you! They don’t try to sell you on the car they have, but try to find you the car you want. I’ve heard them send business to local dealerships because they want to take care of the customer. I just had an accident in which my 4runner was totaled and Justin made sure they found the perfect car to replace it for me. Thanks again Harrison Auto for creating a lifetime customer!

I was trying to see if I could get out of my truck and get into something cheaper. I had given Harrison Auto a phone call and spoke with Larry the owner. Both him and his staff were very polite, professional, and helpful. I ultimately ended up keeping the truck due to the numbers just not working in my favor but Larry was friendly, resourceful, knowledgable, and honest. Great place and I would recommend anybody in need of a car to give them a call.

I was referred to Larry by family and I am super pleased.
We usually use the Costco program for new cars but were disappointed when we found out that the newer model CRV’s weren’t on the list yet and at that point we got the sales pitch and walked out.
Larry found us exactly what we wanted at an excellent price, and I didn’t have to deal with car salesmen!
Good people, pleasant experience. I have recommended many to him.

What a great car buying experience! I definitely wasn’t looking forward to the process of buying a used car for my teenaged kids but what a pleasant surprise! Larry, Dena and Justin were so knowledgeable and accommodating to our needs. It was a no hassle experience. We left with just the car we had been looking for, a 3^rd generation 4Runner at a great price! I felt they were very honest and such nice people! Had a small town, family business feeling that I love to support. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone!

Honestly the best car buying experience yet. No hassle, honest deals. Personable people and a great business that offers background on the car so you know what you are purchasing. I highly recommend going to Harrison auto if you are looking for a great price and a great experience.

I can’t say enough about the people at Harrison Auto! They were referred to me by a friend, and I will never go anywhere else to buy a car. They treated my like family, and I have never felt so «taken care of» while buying a car. I was not exactly sure what I was looking for, and Larry was very patient with me, discussed the pros and cons of several cars I was considering, and helped me to reach a decision in a way that took all of the stress and «what if’s» out of car buying. They were then able to find exactly the car I was looking for, at a price considerably less than what I was prepared to pay. They were extremely kind, informative, and very responsive any time I had questions. Even after buying the car (a 2011 Camry), they continued to follow-​up and make sure I was satisfied with my purchase. I can’t believe I ever went through the hassles of buying a car at a dealership. To anyone looking to buy a car, I would HIGHLY recommend the people at Harrison Auto!

Just bought a Toyota Camry 50 miles after I bought it check engine light goes on cost $ 2,500 to fix it do not shop at Harrison auto

You will not have a better car buying experience than Harrison Auto. Larry and Dena are the nicest, most professional people you can deal with. An they know tier cars! Perfect situation for buying my teenage daughters first car. Thank you.

The transmission of my Civic Hybrid died after 11 years. The next day, as soon as I found out that the transmission work would cost $ 4,200 which is more than the car value, I contacted Larry Harrison of Harrison Auto hoping that he would be able to help me with a used car. He quickly asked around and confirmed that the dead hybrid transmission is not worth the repair and gave me some great advice on how to sell the non-​operating car.
He then contacted the fleet sales representative at Honda dealer who started working with me right away and magically got me approved for a lease of a brand new 2013 Civic. The next day, two days after my car broke, I came home in a brand new car with only $ 600 to the dealer, much better than $ 4,200! I must say that my credit is not stellar and the lease of this car is giving me a great opportunity to rebuild my credit too.
I still can’t believe I’m driving a brand new car with a roomy trunk that can fit the massage table, has rear view camera, USB & iPod connection, and smart enough to know all my contacts from my phone… This is way more than the functional used car that I was hoping for from Harrison Auto.
It hasn’t sunk in yet but I can say that I’m loving my new car and I can’t thank Larry enough to make this happen so quickly with a minimal down time for my business. I keep hearing that he is well connected and knowledgeable in the auto industry and I can’t agree more. I highly recommend Harrison Auto if you are looking for your next car old or new.

I was looking for a 4runner with 4wd and larry had exactly what I wanted low miles 3rg gen gave me a good deal helped me with the bank loan I had a great experience with them and I recommend them to everyone

Bought my son a Toyota Corolla here. No hassle, fair, straight up geez not what you think about auto dealers. Highly recommend if you are looking for a car between $ 4000 to $ 8000

I am so impressed with Harrison Auto Consultants i have only had my car for two weeks, I had tony their mechanic fix the timing chain tensioner and then a water pump was needed and Larry Harrison went ahead and covered that and he did not have to. I didn’t have to pay for anything this is a great company to buy a used car from! Thanks again Larry you rock!

I’m so grateful for the wonderful team at Harrison Auto. So incredibly friendly, easy to deal with and helpful. Coming from overseas and with a limited budget, the staff here worked hard to give me the best deal yet.
I wouldn’t look anywhere else if you are wanting a safe and reliable car. So happy with the Toyota I have bought and Harrison Auto has made buying my first car a wonderful experience! Thank you!!!

Great People. Great Service. Lindsay is the best! They worked with my budget and even brought my car to help with the price. The Harrison’s are a blessed family!!! Thank you so much!!!

I really wish I could provide a better review. We were in the market for my teenaged son’s first car, and half of the expense would be paid by him. We visited Larry because we familiar with his ad’s and his reputation. We were shown a 2001 Mazda Millenia that looked to be in great condition. Larry and his son were very friendly and helpful.
Larry told us that each car was put through a multi-​point inspection to assure that the car is in good working order. The price was good, and we decided to purchase the vehicle from them. Now, normally I would insist on having my mechanic check the vehicle before I buy it. But, I stupidly thought that I would be okay based on the multi-​point inspection and their reputation.
We took the car to our mechanic two days after the purchase, and found out that the car needed to have the head gaskets replaced and the seal behind the timing belt and the water pump. Total cost to fix — $ 1,100 — $ 1,300. Ouch. We contacted Larry to see what could be done to make it right. We received a call from his mechanic, Tony, who said that he only inspects the car for safety issues. We also brought the car to Tony to have him inspect the car, and he agreed that the gaskets and the seal needed replacing.
Larry’s offer to make it right was to have Tony fix the car at his discounted rate, which turned out to be the same price as my mechanic quoted me (except my mechanic uses factory parts instead of after-​market). Our request to have some of our money refunded to defray the cost was not accepted.
Bottom line: ALWAYS get these cars checked out by a reputable mechanic before you purchase. It is a mistake that I will not make again.

Saw their website on Craig’s List while searching for a good, used car for my wife. Our budget was $ 3,000-$ 5,000, but fell in love with a nice silver 1997 Honda Civic EX that cost about $ 5,700 that Lindsay showed us. She was very nice, accommodating and helpful throughout the process. Despite some very minor body damage (scratches/​scrapes) and a bit of oil I detected on the bottom of the engine (oil pan), the nice looking 1997 Honda Civic EX looks to be in very good condition (nice paint, wheels with new tires, interior, engine, ride, etc.).
Larry, the long-​time owner, exudes much confidence and the whole crew there makes you feel like family. We get lifetime tire rotation from his neighbor, and the confidence that if the vehicle needs repairs, Larry has mechanics that can support us-​that is value when buying a used car that does not come with a warranty. The reviews that I have read on Unilocal of this company are accurate. I already referred Haarrison Auto Consultants to our neighbor in case they need a good used vehicle.
Thank you for all your help, Harrison Auto Consultants, my wife loves her car!

As a first time car purchaser I was VERY pleased with the service I received at Harrison Auto. There was absolutely NO PRESSURE involved.
Larry and the crew were very friendly and eager to help find the right car for me. The process from start to finish was quick and painless and I drove away with just what I needed in under an hour.
Props to Harrison Auto Consultants for doing it right!

I was recommended to Harrison Auto by a coworker with a promise that I’d get the best deal without a hassle! Boy was he right!
I emailed Larry on a Tuesday afternoon telling him my budget, what I was looking for and BOOM on Saturday afternoon I was in my new ride!
I got the truck I was looking for with more options than I was planning on and under my budget! Doesn’t get much better than that!
I recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a new car/​truck and doesn’t want to deal with all the bS you get at a regular dealership.
Larry is the Man!
