Approved Auto Credit

I wish they had 0 star rating. I brought a truck from them putting 2,000 down. 3 days later after purchasing it they told me I need to put an additional 1,500 down to keep it (after I already puchased it). Of which put an extreme financial strain factoring bills while at the same time my gi bill being 500 $ a month less than what it’s suppose to be.
My girlfriend has been getting harassing calls where someone was looking for me saying my truck payments aren’t up to date and I called. Approved Auto Credit asking whats going on and they said they would handle it (but truly didnt). Along with being coached to tell the financing party that my truck had the full equipment feature (leather seats, Bose sound system, etc.) even though it never did and having to wait a full month to get a replacement seat belt (most basic yet most important safety feature) i’d say this is top of the list of car sales company you’ll need to avoid. Whats important to them solely is yure money so if you’re in there keep in mind theres plenty of other car sales places and not be sold on bs cause in the end you’ll be the one out of luck. I’m a military vet and look how they did me and if u doubt, look them up on bbb (better business bureau)… Watch out!!!

Well purchased a vehicle, decent price, good mileage, but at the end of filling out the contract they told me the vehicle was not ready to go, that they had to do a tune up and run a diagnostic and they would deliver it to my house the following day, I was thinking to myself shouldn’t all of this been done prior to putting it for sale, but OK. So the next day I was waiting, did not receive a call or nothing, called them left numerous messages and nothing, so the next day I finally got ahold of someone and they told me the vehicle would not be ready till the next day, I asked to speak to a manager and was kept on hold, finally recieved the vehicle 3 days later and all I got was sorry, never spoke to a manager. Very unprofessional and unorganized business, would not recommend doing business here.

The one star is for a negative star. These people are EXTREMELY unprofessional, the owner sits in his office puffing away at his hookah. YES I said hookah. As in shisha, tobacco etc… LOL the secretary ladies are ghetto to the max and lie through there teeth to keep there jobs, the mechanics all look like they are undocumented and get paid under the table. I should have seen all of those as red flags when I first walked Into this place. BUT like every other person that has left a review, I was in dire need of a car to get to work. I signed paperwork and drove off the lot that day with my car. Unfortunately, I was Conned into one of those yo yo deals. They call me a few days later to let me know that the owner JOHN wanted to change the agreement. HAHA! NO. they seem to be used to doing this a lot to some people who may know nothing about the law. Well, they have met there match. Approved auto credit will pay for everyone’s pain and suffering.

Please be cautious when purchasing from here. Nice over the phone and nice in person until your purchase. They give you the run around and not necessarily truthful answers.

This place sucks! I wouldn’t recommend anyone here. I bought a car here that had problems right after I signed my paper work. John the owner promises to fix any problem that you have after you purchase your vehicle and it’s all bull$#!% he promised to fix a dent on my hood but never did I had problems with my battery because they put a used battery them they try to tells it was new when it wasn’t. I had to but a new battery myself. Then I referred a friend and was supposed to get $ 200 for referring my friend that I never got because John kept hiding from me, and come to find out my friend has lots of problems with her car now that they will not fix only do lil Micky mouse jobs. Do your self a favor and don’t buy here! I wish I would of did more investigation on this deal :(but I was in need of a car.

Do not bother buying any cars from this establishment. The owner John is a shady individual. Do not sign any contracts with him. We are filing a lawsuit against him. I only gave star because we cannot post without adding a rating. Take it as a negative star. If you are having trouble with the car you can go online and file for a DMV investigation against them and file a complaint on

I see that many of you have also had similar bad experience with approved credit auto. I am planning on suing. what do you think about a class action litigation suit. by the way if any of you are senior citizens there is also a civil code 1780. If the dirtbags are found guilty in a law suit, the court may order them to pay the senior citizen an additional $ 500 for the stress, and all the hardship they caused us.
If anyone knows how we start a class action suit against dirtbags, lets do it.

Called in to see an 04 325ci BMW. Lady over the phone sounded nice and professional, said the car is in perfect condition and it drives and runs very nice. So I waste my time to go in and see it. The car was on the side with not for sale written on it. It was clearly listed on every used car app I could find. So I check it out further. It was in terrible condition. Had a fan from the engine on the drivers seat I pop the hood and it had no head. Engine was being rebuilt. Thanks for wasting my time. Thank you all who posted about this place I think they proved your points.

As a follow up to my previous review — I had the car checked out. The mechanic at Approved had told me he had «fixed» the brakes and that they were in good order. When I took the car to MY mechanic of many years, he told me the car needed all new shoes — a total of $ 360.
So in addition to the battery I had to purchase, I also had to do the brakes. Total expenditure where there shouldn’t have been any — $ 467.
As of today, no check for the battery has arrived.

When I and my wife gave up on looking for a house we decided to splurge on a pair of new cars. I went on the internet and found a nice Chevy cobalt for sale here. We both went to look and I didn’t see the car, however I found a nice impala that was to my liking, and my wife found a nice ford explorer.
For whatever reason they didn’t want to sell me the impala right away. After two weeks I finally got the impala, and every week since then I had to take it back over and over to get things fixed. From the engine overheating to the dash not lighting up to the battery going out, my wife left her car there for a month and they gave the car back in worse condition then they got it; on top of that she dropped her car off with three quarters of a tank and she got it back bone dry.
I left my car for a week and they didn’t even leave it in the lot! These guys are scam artists and junk dealers; they’ll sell you a lemon and run out your warranty so they don’t have to pay for the repairs. If you want my advice; save your money and buy certified used, I wouldn’t even buy a rock from them for fear it would be a painted dirt clod.
BTW, a few weeks after I found the cobalt in the back lot after they had told me they «sold» it.
