Hertz Car Sales

Stay away. They sell lies not cars. The worst car buying experience, ever! I am sitting with a $ 23k purchase hoping and praying it is not a lemon. Purchased a 2012 Cadillac CTS. This is how they work…
The salesmen Denny claimed the car had a108 point inspection and he would show us the inspection results. He sent me on a wild goose chase for that inspection. I soon realized, I was being played. I phoned the sales manager, Matt, who hung up on me.
I decided to show up to the Hertz in Salem, OR. I found Denny the salesmen and said «we would like to have a word with you and Matt» We went back to Matt’s office, where Matt threatened to throw my husband out”. Matt said he was sick of my husband and told him to shut the «F» up. Matt refused to provide us a copy of the 108 point inspection. They are obviously hiding something.
Our car purchase at Hertz Car Sales of Salem Oregon was a nightmare.

Long overdue… Ii bought my vehicle here in Nov. 2012. Purchasing a vehicle from a dealer can be stressful, annoying, etc. But this went well. There was no hard sell and they found a vehicle for me at another Oregon Hertz outlet.

I bought a used Nissan Leaf from these people. I also paid for stain protection they never applied. It took 2 return trips, & both times the car didn’t have enough energy for my 60 mile return trip home. I had to stop & pay for a charge after they told me it was plugged in all night.
I would not return to buy from here again.

Went in to look into buying a car, the gentleman I talked with seemed nice over the internet and then when I got it seemed like he didn’t want to take us seriously, did not want to show us the car we wanted, showed us the crappiest used car on the lot thinking that was more in our price range. VERY JUDGEMENTAL. I work at a car dealership and I know how they SHOULD treat their customers. Don’t even get me started on the finance guy! He’s now retired since we were there. But he was horrible. even raised his voice at us, I’ve only bought one other car from a dealership in my life, so clearly i’m not experienced in that department. It would have been nice to have someone on my side helping me through the process instead of treating me like i’m a waste of their time. I tell everyone i know in the car business to NOT deal with them. Sorry for the people who are probably decent to their customers that work at Hertz. I just really had the worst experience and felt completely humiliated.

I can’t say 5 stars because I’ve only had my car for 2 days so I have no personal experience with how they are if something goes wrong down the road.
Over the past weekend, my fiancé and I both experienced car breakdowns. Fiancé’s was fixable, I found out Monday mine was going to need a new engine to be road ready. With 3 months until the wedding, I was hoping it would hold out, but alas, it was not meant to be.
Thankfully, I had done some research ahead of time, and had discovered that Hertz has good reviews (where you can find them) when it comes to car sales. I talked to them at 1pm while I was in Vancouver, and by the time the fiancé and I were able to procure a rental car and head south, it was later than that. We did not arrive at Hertz until 4:30. I met with Jason, one of the car salesmen. At first, I told him I was looking for something 10,000 or less, and he showed me a used Lexus for just under 11,000. I told him the 10,000 was absolutely as high as I could go, but I’d like something less. I mentioned a 2006 Pontiac Vibe I’d seen for about 8. I did mention I was concerned about it being fairly high mileage (182,000). Jason said that we could look into it, since it would probably last about 300,000 miles, but that he would like to show me a 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix for the same price, with only 83,000 miles on it, and stated that if well maintained, it should also last until about 300,000 miles.
I looked at all the specs and said I was interested. He said that the car was in Eugene, but that if I wanted to come back the next day after work, they could put me in a free rental overnight, with no obligation to buy. While I was filling out some pre-​emptive loan paperwork and the rental car paperwork, one of Jason’s associates came by and informed us that they would be able to ship the car up from Eugene if I wanted to look at it that night.
Long story short, it came, I test drove it, loved it, loved all the history I was able to obtain on it, and bought it. Hertz officially closes at 7 but Jason waited around an hour past closing to help us, effectively missing Game 7 of the playoffs. Bob, the finance guy, stayed later. He was helpful, helped me get a very low rate even though my credit is average (credit is 697, my rate is 3.25), and like I mentioned stayed quite late to help us through the process. I left with the license plates on, with them registered, the title in my name, all that good stuff since there is a DMV on site. Fiancé and I were very haggard and tired by the end of all this, so we found Bob to be just a tad over-​energetic/​chatty at that point in the evening, but I can’t blame our grumpiness of a stressful situation on anyone at Hertz, since they really turned out to be the saving grace of the day.
Low pressure, treated well, nobody felt overly pushy or cheesy, not the «used car salesman» feel one would expect to get. If you’re thinking about buying a car, especially a used one, it would be worth it to go talk to them. They are picky about the inventory they sell, so you will know about the vehicle’s history. And I feel prices are fair.
