All About Auto Wholesale

I bought a used BMX X5 here in November. The salesman was nice. That’s the end of the good things I have to say. The Check Engine Light came on a week or two later. I couldn’t get it to pass DEQ. I called the dealer and they asked me to bring it in. They checked it while I waited and said it was a faulty computer issue and that they had fixed it. I took the car back to DEQ and it passed. A week or so later the Check Engine Light came back on. A few weeks passed and the Check Engine Light started to blink so I finally took it to a local mechanic who called me later that day saying he was afraid to touch it because he thought it was going to be very expensive and not worth his time. I freaked and put off dealing with it for a day or two. The mechanic called me back and said that there had barely been any oil in the car at all. He also said that my problems might be due to the battery because it was pretty much dead and causing havoc with the computer. He put in a new battery for me and put oil in the car for me. The car seems fine now. Why couldn’t the dealer have made sure that there was enough oil in the car and replaced the battery prior to the sale? It would have prevented tons of trouble for me and it wouldn’t have cost them that much money. Since they didn’t give a shit they now get a shitty review from me.
But that’s not the only problem. These morons misspelled several things while trying to fill out the paperwork for the sale even though I repeatedly spelled things out for them. I brushed it off but now I can see that they are just careless. They also told me from the start that they could mail my license plates to me because I live more than 30 minutes away. I told them I wanted the plates mailed. When they got the plates in they called me to ask if I was going to come pick up the plates or if I wanted them mailed. I said I wanted them mailed. Weeks went by so I called them to ask if they mailed them. They had not. I asked if they could please mail the plates now. They assured me that they would. Weeks went by and I still didn’t have my plates so I called again and complained and I was assured once again that my plates would get sent out to me immediately. Several weeks went by again and this time my husband called. He got voicemail so he left a message. 5 days later someone called him back. They told him that the post office wouldn’t allow them to mail plates out and that I would need to come pick the plates up.
My husband bought a used car from a guy off Craigslist around the same time and has not had a single problem.
I will NEVER buy a used car from a little used car dealer again.

I purchased a truck from them in august of 2014. The buying process was really easy. I had been searching for a truck for several months previous and they had 3 of the make/​year/​model that I wanted. They let me inspect all 3 trucks inside and out and I was impressed with the mechanical shape that they were in. The truck I decided on was in excellent shape. A few things needed to be fixed on it that were not essential to performance such as lights and a few switches that were easy and inexpensive if you have the tools and the know how. If you are not mechanically inclined I would highly recommend having your car in question be inspected by a mechanic before purchase.
I picked the one I wanted, test drove it and sat down to negotiate. Although they would not come down in price, we negotiated that they would do several basic maintenance services. They got me a great rate for an auto loan. They also offered a 3 year warranty on the truck through a respected company (I had a friend with this same warranty who’s engine failed and the warranty picked up the $ 4000 bill).
Two bad experiences happened after purchasing the car.
First, they forgot to include my apartment number for the auto loan and I never received my loan terms from the bank it was financed through and almost missed the first payment. Luckily I was on top of it and had called them on three separate occasions. The first two calls I was assured that the paperwork would get to me and that it takes the bank a while to process. The third call was 4 days before the first payment was due and it was discovered that my apartment number was missing on the forms. Got it sorted out and didn’t miss a payment.
Second, two of the basic maintenance items weren’t done correctly. I had them change the transmission filter and fluid and the transmission came back overfilled by 2 quarts. The second was the spark plugs were changed but were not torqued to spec and were leaking gas fumes which were then getting into the cabin air intake and making the cabin smell like gasoline. Both were easy and free fixes for someone with mechanical knowledge but would be $ 300 – 400 dollars total to have a mechanic fix.
They offered to fix these things for free but in my opinion I wasn’t I going to take it back to the same place that hadn’t done it right the first go around.
That being said, I would still buy from them again. Again, the cars I looked at were in great mechanical shape. I just wouldn’t have them do any extra work on the car after purchase.
Overall, I am very pleased with the truck I purchased and the buying process. The truck runs great and I have had no major problems with it 5 months after purchase.

Nobody likes buying a new car. My fiancé and I drove from Seattle to test drive a couple of cars. We decided to do a trade for a beautiful 2003 Audi A4 Wagon. We couldn’t be happier with our purchase. Not only was the experience with each individual there smooth (no hassle and they really worked together as a team), we got a great trade in value on our car. Tony, Chris and Jonathan were quite the trio. Easy to work with, honest, and made us feel really comfortable. I highly recommend this car lot. Thank you AAAW!

We recently traded in my car for a more portland-​friendly car that would be more practical with our newborn son. After being assured up and down that «they inspect all of their vehicles completely,» I agreed and felt relatively confident that they were a reputable dealership. We literally signed the paperwork at closing time and drove the car straight home — the next morning it was dead in my driveway. For the next several days, a morning jump start was the only way to get it going. The car had to be returned to the dealership for an additional week to repair body damage another salesperson had done after we had agreed to purchase it. I asked that they check the car out to see why it kept dying and was blown off about the whole problem. I was assured «it didn’t die the whole time we had it» and the car was sent home — only to be dead in my driveway again the next morning. Flash forward another week and the car is going to the Audi dealership for diagnosis and we are looking at a $ 1700 bill. Needless to say, Tony weaseled his way into only paying a couple hundred bucks and treated us like idiots the whole time. Oh, and we have been without our car for almost a month now. Thanks for upholding that sleazy used-​car-​salesman feel. :/​
Update: Just took the car on it’s first roadtrip and the lower control arm assembly CAME APART while I was driving. Yea. Do yourself a huge favor and find someplace (anyplace) better than this dump.

It is be highly recommended that the vehicle you intend to purchase be taken to «your mechanic» to verify the that the vehicle is in good working order.
Where I come from your word is as good as a contract. Unfortunately, I do not feel this way about Dan and Tony from All About Auto.

I live in Washington and I drove down to Portland to pick up my car from them. I have had nasty experiences in the past when it got to do with the overall experience of purchasing a car.
Dan and Tony from the showroom were extremely professional and patient and made sure that I was at complete ease to pick up my vehicle — coz let’s face it, you aren’t going to the grocery store to pick up nick nacks. This is a CAR, an INVESTMENT!
No haggling, no hidden costs — BRILLIANT service by these guys.
I would highly recommend going down to their showroom and look around for your next SEXY beauty.
