If I could give this place a -100 rating I really would. I went to the location at 1384 Weston Road. The salesman Ash Ali helped me to pick a car. I was told the one I would be getting was from their Ajax location and would have to be brought to the Weston location. I signed the agreement and gave them a deposit of $500 on July 18th and changed my mind on July 22nd. I tried to contact them and they told me I wouldn't get the money back even though it was 4 days later. I never got my money back, but now I know better. If there is any sound advice I could give, GO ANYWHERE ELSE!!!!! Do not give them your money. They're a bunch of cons who want to sell you overpriced cars with damage to them. I went to Red Line Auto in Mississauga. They're much better.

I had a disappointing experience at the approval store while trying to buy a car. Initially, they quoted CAD 28,000, including all expenses, for a car valued at CAD 22,000. Later, I discovered an additional hidden cost of CAD 7,000, making me feel deceived and scammed. I urge others not to buy a car from this dealership. It's crucial to research thoroughly before any significant purchase. Verify the market value, read reviews, and be wary of deceptive practices. I recommend reporting such experiences to the authorities to protect others from falling prey to similar scams. Prioritize your safety and seek trustworthy dealerships for a smooth car buying process.

Shady dealers that give car salesmen bad reps. Roped me giving me a quoted weekly price of 111$ and then said I could test drive the car. Drove 40 mins to come they didnt even have the car there, the lady who posted the advertisement on facebook who i talked to initially couldnt remember any details on the car off the top of her head when I called and then they tried to lie on how much taxes would be on a 222 bi weekly payment saying it would amount to 298 biweekly. Dont waste your time or fall for their antics. They will do whatever they can to get u into their door and then just try to sell u with outrageous prices

‼️‼️‼️all fake reviews last month they had 3.2 ratings when I originally posted a review. Suddenly 4.4….just check how there lower ratings ❌❌❌❌❌❌ERIC stay away from him❌❌❌❌❌❌Specially for new comers! ❌❌❌❌❌❌You will get approved with them but be careful if you are newcommer because these guys may SCAM you with loan conditions and extra fees. Sold 5 years old car for new car price. Borrowing price is more than principal amount. Not recommended at all!❌❌❌❌they prey on innocent people ❌❌❌❌

  • Bohdan Zhuravel

be careful when signing a financing agreement. They first take a deposit, then approve financing at a very high interest rate, and the buyer is left with two options: either overpay a very large amount of money with a bad interest rate, or simply lose their deposit, because these scammers do not return the deposit in case of financing approval. Financing here will always be approved and you will lose money in any case. Be careful with these scammers, I do not recommend contacting them.

  • Black Barbie

I’ve had an amazing experience with the approval store! Excellent communication with reception, who is very professional! Excellent quality service from Jason, sales representative! His friendly, polite and professional approach made the purchase very easy for me! I’ll definitely recommend your service to my friends and family, also my colleagues! For the potential shoppers, go and check out the approval store today, you won’t be disappointed

  • Nihan Yousof

Purchased my bmw m240i and my mother a Honda Accord from Azam Naimi (sorry if i misspelled your last name). Amazing service, tried his best to get me the best deal possible. He kept in contact after as well ensuring I was still satisfied. Azam has some mechanical experience as well so he knows whether a car is worth the buy or not! If you want a trusted salesman that will actually look out for you and help you get a good deal hes the guy!

  • Yans D

My husband and I were looking for an SUV for OVER 2 months. We came across Approval Store and met Erick. Erick was amazing and was very fast with this process. He made this experience wonderful. Working with Erick was a breeze. APPROVAL STORE HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! You should really go down to Weston road and ask for Erick !! He will listen to what you want and do the best he can !! WHICH HE DID !! Thank you Erick and Approval Store

  • Matchu XX

DO NOT TRUST THEM!!! I worked with Mo and on the spot said he got Me approved and asked for a deposit for a car….I gave it to him because other place I went to said they didn’t but turns out i also didn’t get approved here either They’re just saying that to use the money as a leverage they lie to you. I am new to the country and they are just taking advantage of anyone who is new… I repeat again DO NOT TRUST THEM I lost $500…

  • MUBIRU VIANEY

Perfect place to choose Your Vehicle mostly if your new to the country they will get you a plan that works for you even with New Credit they have a credit building program that you get on for a year they get you a cheaper car use it for a year to behold credit then after a year you shop for a better car of choice if you kept good credit i worked with Azam and took through the process really well am so grateful…..

  • G Vain

Mo Francis is amazing sales person. He was very emphatic and considerate well handling my account. He is very knowledgeable and will go the extra mile to ensure that you understand the entire process and that you are completely satisfied with your purchase. I would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking to buy or finance their car. I am tremendously pleased I had the opportunity to meet him. He is amazing.

  • Jessica Kirk

Lucas was wonderful in helping my husband and I to buy a vehicle! We both don't have the best credit, but Lucas was able to get us into an awesome low mileage car for exactly what we needed. We are very happy with our experience and will continue to tell people about the great time we had here shopping for our dream car. Thanks again!!! Come here for all your used car need, seriously. It's totally worth it!!!

  • Kezang Jimba

I went looking for a car and met sales Manager called Jason Narayan. He gave a car that is older than a grandfather at 295 biweekly which I refused to take. I was made to deposit 100$ which he promised that it is refundable. Well, long story short I would never recommend anyone to purchase car from this location and particularly to be careful with Jason Nayarayan. I felt like I was scammed.

  • Atlas Del Mar

Eric & the staff at the Approval Store did everything to get me the car I desired. He worked with me on the application and the purchase of the exact car I wanted, which wasn't originally part of his fleet of vehicles. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is a serious buyer willing and ready for a car or SUV. I will definitely work with them moving forward with my mortgage loan.

  • Jenny Rodney

Great customer service is reallly hard to find these days. My visit to the Approval store was very good experience. Meeting Mo Francis was one of the best experience I had since moving to Toronto. He was helpful, patient and most of all the wealth of knowledge that he imparted to me was just pure Awesomeness. Thank you Mo. I do appreciate all you did to get toget me driving again.

  • Damien

I recently picked up a vehicle from Anu over at their weston road location and I have no complaints. He was very helpful in all aspects of the purchase and walked me through my payment plan and even helped me get a great insurance rate. I would highly recommend these guys to anyone looking to get a new vehicle. super helpful and very easy to deal with.

  • Ashraf Hussain

It was an absolutely amazing experience, the help in explaining credit, working towards an approval and making sure i had a car before the holidays ........ I just cant thank enough for making this happen. The effort Erick and Arif put in making this happen for me was just unbelievable. Everyone should definitely reach out to them for a car loan.

Best dealer for used cars. They not just have good cars but they damn good on finance approval. Special Thanks to Mo francis, who handled my file and got me approved for finance on my favourite car even after un-qualified credit history. These guys doing great job. Must visit before you go anywhere else. They do what they says, “Approval Store”.

  • Maxime Zoumari

I had an interesting experience withe the business. I wanted another brand they didn't have. I am someone who thinks a car is worth another. The main thing is taking me from point A to point B. So I want for what they suggested. This is a first experience for me. Wayne has been great all along and kept the communication close.
