Treasure Auto Sales

I drove up from Salem to get a car from here. When I arrived another test driver had crashed the car and left a huge dent. They wanted me to pay $ 500 to fix it, but wouldn’t take money off the price of the car. $ 10,000 for the vehicle is the good jelly blue book price, so this is what I was thinking I would be paying.
Adding to that they said the car was in perfect condition mechanically. They did not offer to show me the proof of this from the dealership they bought it from but assured me it was true. Turns out it wasn’t. All the seals and gaskets needed replacing on the engine. $ 3600 in repairs isn’t mechanically sound. Not to mention the non mechanical issues.
These people will lie to you to get their cars sold. Don’t take their word. Get proof and take it to your own mechanic if they won’t offer proof.
They also rushed me into the purchase and aggressively tried to sell me a warranty that would have just been for belts and small issues anyway.
Disappointed in their shady business practices.

I purchased a used BMW from Treasure Auto Sales. Having only bought new cars in the past 30 years I had zero experience with purchasing a used car and didn’t realize the jumping in gear changing when test driving was in fact a serious transmission problem.
Here is what I can say… the owner Fred, after much discussion, agreed to pay for the transmission repairs. Two and a half months later and only after I filed a (6) page complaint with his bonding company, he finally agreed to get the car repaired at a highly recommended shop I researched and took the car to for inspection without issue. I’ve had the car back for a day. The car runs great and I’m praying no other expensive issues crop up in the near future.
Oh, and I HIGHLY recommend «Automatic Transmission Service» in Portland on SE 7^th. Dave is an EXCELLENT mechanic and stands by his work with a (2) year 24,000 mile warranty! Even his competitors recommend him for automatic transmission repairs. Although he wasn’t the least expensive shop, he was the best hands down! He was also THOUSANDS less expensive than BMW.
It was a long 2 months getting this all resolved and lots of persistence but in the end, Fred did right by me. It was sad that it took filing the complaint to get him to pay for the rebuilt transmission. But I stood my ground and was prepared to have my lawyer go to arbitration. I know we would have won because we had the Oregon Consumer Protection Law on our side even though Oregon has no «lemon laws». I did my homework as recommended by my lawyer, I found out who their bonding company was. Oh, and car dealer can’t be in business if they lose their bonding. The purpose of the bond is to protect consumers! So if you have a problem in the future, go to their bonding company and file a complaint even if you bought the car «As-​Is». Know your consumer rights!!!
I learned some valuable lessons from this drawn out experience. TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR OWN PURCHASE!!! First, do research on the car you are looking to buy from ANY used car dealer. NEVER be in a rush or be rushed into purchasing a car. Request and read the Car Fax report carefully. Ask the dealer to let you take the car to an independent shop you trust to have it inspected BEFORE putting any money down or agreeing to finalize the purchase. Discuss any issues on the Car Fax report with the shop doing the inspection. This will save you angst, heartache, time and money in the long run. This will also make for concluding a more favorable purchase.

This car dealership was a terrible experience… however my car is still working and running but after all the money I had to put into it. They didn’t care that the advertisement did not match up to what they were selling me. DONT BUY A CAR FROM HERE. Lesson learned. If I could I would give them a half of a star!

I bought very clean car there one week ago, the check engine light came on now my new car is in the shop costing me over $ 500 for the shoty job that treasure auto did to my car run good enough for me to buy it NOT OK with this kind of business

Thought we purchased a great Toyota. We were told it was clean and had no issues. less that 3 months later we find out that the engine had been abused by the previous owner and now will have to be replace since the repairs will be ridiculously high and replacing with a used engine will cost significantly less.
I had tried to contact them via email and phone (left messages) because I was told that if there were any problems to take it to their mechanic to have it repaired at a lesser price. that was months ago.
Should have had a mechanic test this before buying. Lesson learned.
If you plan on doing business with them make sure to bring a good mechanic with you or you’ll end up being burned!
