If I could give this place ZERO stars I would do it in a heart beat. First of all I called them and specifically asked “do you take trade ins” enthusiastically the man KJ said byrider does. He goes to say “just come in and we’ll get you situated” in my mind I’m going to discuss a trade in and get an idea of what options I may have. I own a 2013 Ford Fusion. Purchased it out-right never had payments and the car is in really good condition. I have traded vehicles in before and was very familiar to the process. Not only did I make it to my appointment early, it started very late. Kj belittled me and asked me on several occasions if my job was legitimate and where I worked. I told him several times the name of my job and tried to give him an address. Every attempt, he talked over me. When I looked for my job online I went straight to it. Even down to the last sentence I had with him, he questioned how legitimate I am. He was helping another woman purchase a car (congratulations to her) but instead of answering any questions I had KJ said “just give me what I need and I will figure it out myself” after he asked me for my bank statements I asked if he just wanted for “April” (the previous month) and he snottingly said “you don’t have may?” It is May 27th today. Of course I do not have my statement for May yet. He then apologized because he knew he was being very rude. This man handed me several papers telling me where to sign. And was still tending to his other customer. He was gone for 30 minutes to the point that my guest asked him if he will take the papers or what. Once he took the papers he came back and said “just figure out how you can get $1k and we can go from there” excuse me? How do I owe you 1k and you couldn’t even answer any question that I had for him. He wants to go back and forth and speak over me when I was trying to ask him how we went from “let’s talk about a trade in” to “see if you can get $1k”. It was a very disrespectful statement. Don’t like being this kind of person but the excited woman that was buying a vehicle while I was there was a beautiful Caucasian woman. I can’t image her experience with anything like mine. Here I am, a black woman that’s getting treated like a number. What makes him think I don’t have $1k? I have 2 jobs. 1 full time 40 hours a week, 1 part time working 20hrs a week. My birthday was yesterday… I have plenty of money. I came cash ready with a car to trade in, all the paperwork I needed, insurance documents… and I’m trying to help him find my LEGITIMATE job, offering my personal information and he cut off almost everything i tried to tell him. Be careful, he was also taking copies of my ID and didn’t tell me. He asked if the address was right and got up to make copies. Didn’t say a word. His excuse was that “he’s been doing this for a long time” well, this wasn’t the first time I’ve purchased a car either. There are salesman that women should look out for. KJ is one of them. I tried getting clarification about when can we discuss the trade in and he was cutting me off and talking over me AGAIN. He said “you need cash” but again, is this answering anything I came in for? After I asked him for my papers to leave, he told me to just “go”. As a woman that works hard and makes very good money, it’s disappointing. But even more disturbing that I am a black woman that didn’t get half the treatment I deserved. I called back up there to get corporates number and Kyle was not pleasant either. He didn’t want to give the number and saying “I guess” as if my concern wasn’t enough to complain about. My mother has purchased 3 cars from Byrider. I came in with money and a plan. He for some reason looked and me and decided I didn’t look legitimate, I didn’t have money, and that my questions were not valid. I hope somebody treats him the way he treated me today. Nobody deserves that. I am going to keep posting reviews until the owner stands on their 2 feet and address the bad experience I had. How can you comment to somebody a few hours ago but my concern is still here.

When I tell you I am overly pleased with Byrider, I mean it from the depth of my heart. Even though it took 4 weeks to get my new engine, it was well worth it. And their office representative in the service departmet Renae, they absolutely could not have a better person to keep the customers calm, informative, patient and secure from walking or jumping off the ledge. Thank you sooooooo very much Byrider. Renae, stand for the company she works for and she stands y'all for Byrider. I just cannot thank you enough for taking good care of my car and satisfying my transportational needs. Hats off to Byrider 6/28/2023 this is my second time surveying and I'm just as pleased this time around as before. This time it only took byrider a day to remedy my cooling system problem and thanks be to God it was under warranty and my out of pocket obligation was affordable. As always the desk representative Renae is courteous, pleasant, polite, professional and friendly. She makes having to come to byrider with a mechanical problem bearable. My car is coming close to being paid for and I just pay that nothing else goes wrong so thank you for keeping me afloat.

  • Bilal Abdullah

I've dealt with Byriider years ago and it was a mess....A hot mess. From sart to finish. From sales to service. Red flags every were., But because of my credit not being favorable at the time, when I got approved by them I looked over the obvious... As they knew most probably would. Literally after I gave them a down payment the BS started. Lies, unkempt promises and lemon cars. Now almost 20yrs later trying them again, but this time I'm very skeptical.With good reasons. Anyway, the sales man ( I forgot his name), made sure I knew the pros and cons of dealing with Byriider...before I gave him any money! I'm not go to lie, I was impressed. I appreciate his honesty..Still skeptical,but I made the deal. Now to each his/her own experience, But the real reason why I would highly recommend this business is the service department. Specifically, Renee. I had a few issues with my car and she's always been professional showing empathy. Although she's not the one actually working on my car she went above and beyond to get my car back to me in a timely manner. Thank you Renee!

I’ve had my car for a little over 2 yrs and have had issues with it since hour 40 of having it. It’s been in and out of the shop, jd Byrider has had my car at least twice and did not fix the issues actually wrong with it and also misdiagnosed my car once. My vehicle has been in the shop almost 1/2 the time I’ve had it. Car note and insurance is to be paid every month but not only did they close down the jd Byriders in my area but no other byriders within distance will accept my vehicle for repairs. This has been a totally horrible experience and I will NEVER purchase a vehicle or recommend ANYONE purchase a vehicle from this dealership. They don’t care about what they’re selling to their customers or providing quality repairs/service

  • Jerrica Herring

I brought my car didn’t have it for 1 month and it’s been in & out of they service department (shop) everyday. Renee is pretty sweet and will help you but it seems like she’s just doing that cause that’s her job. Honestly I DO NOT recommend because they won’t allow you to trade your vehicle out although I haven’t had it long at all. I’ve been having issues with this car missing out on work because they have kept it in the shop for days. With no option for rental it’s not worth it I DO NOT RECOMMEND it’s like they set us up and they will fix it up enough to sell the vehicle. I can say they will do the best to sell you a car only because it’s a trap!!

  • Tabatha Hood

Ty once again For a great purchase and doing all u guys do for the best deals and honesty. This is my second purchase with this location and I highly recommend it. Great service and honest pple. Update on my 2nd purchase from this place iv had this car about a month now and have nothing but issues after issues & rude customer service from the dealership part. I never missed a payment on the 4 year loan I just got out of with them nor ever had to use my warranty.. You would think being a immediate 2nd buyer they would do a little more to help me.

  • Sierra Glover

Truly enjoyed the car buying experience w/ Byrider. Everyone I met was nice and very professional, but Kyle made my DAY!!. He was thorough, attentive, and transparent. He made me feel completely comfortable and confident in understanding the entire process. He even switched it up and surprised me w/ haircut ( who can’t like a salesman that tends to his appearance ). Thank you Kyle Hurd, and if you’re looking for a car he’s definitely your guy

  • Hannah Sillanpa

My boyfriend was in such a desperate situation and needed a car ASAP. We were initially worried because he couldn't put much money down and his credit wasn't the best. However, the staff at this location worked with him and did everything they could to get him driving that day! KJ and Dave spent 5 hours helping my boyfriend to get him the lowest down payment they could and he even got the specific car he wanted!!! We cannot thank you enough!!!!

  • Yhaniya Bynum

Ms Rene helped me with my car… again. It’s been sitting at jd Byrider for a month now because I wasn’t financially ready to pay for the damage, but she assured that the parts would be ordered and placed into my car. She also mentioned that I wouldn’t have any fees for the car to sit there until I was ready. I came to pick it up a month later and it’s ready to go! Thank you Ms Rene for always helping me!

  • Robert Phillips

Don’t buy a vehicle from them. I’ve had my vehicle in the shop three separate times for the transmission. Each time my car has been in the shop, I’ve had to wait at least a month to get it back. They will not fully reimburse you for a rental and they still expect you to be on time with your car note payment without giving you any grace. If you can seek other options, please do.

  • John Johnson

2nd vehicle we have purchased at Byrider and haven't has any issues. Don't believe all bad reviews, most are because people don't pay their payments, and that's what starts issues. Yes higher interest rate but that's not Byrider fault in the end you made it where you have no choice but higher interest rate due to life. At least give them a try.

  • Cynthia Shaffer

I had a visit with Mr. Khalil Jebari, excellent customer service! Great personality also lol! My experience was great. I would most definitely go back and also recommend people to try their luck with byrider. They are quick but also take the time to make sure everything is right and get you riding off in the vehicle of your choice!

  • Tae Toes

Ms. Rena has been a blessing in disguise. Although I have to give kudos to the service team for fixing my car. Ms Rena went above and beyond to get it fixed and also was helpful with payment adjustments since my issue wasn't under my warranty. If she hasn't been told before she is an amazing woman, and service team rep !

  • Shauntel Goines

When I tell you Ms. Renee in the the service department is everything!!!! This lady is simply amazing. She made me feel very welcome and assured me that everything was going to be fixed in a timely manner and she was correct!!!! I love it here! Oh she also saved me a lot of $$$ Thank you so much Ms.Renee …

  • Patrick Hentig

My car was in for service for the transmission, and the service was excellent! Renee checked the car in and was very responsive about my car when I called her about it She quoted me a price, but found out that Ford had a service recall and I had my car serviced by a Ford dealership to be covered by a Ford recall.

  • Nicole loaiza

I just want to say Mrs.Rena is one of the main reasons why I still deal With Byrider. Her ability to help and kindness is something I truly appreciate. The help and how knowledgeable she is. Thank you for been a blessing to us the customers of this dealer. Your work makes a remarkable difference.God bless you

  • Kyla Williams

They are pretty quick with getting your car in and Rene at the service desk is always so pleasant and reassuring and she answers the phone all the time. She is awesome. Just feel like this car shouldn’t be giving me this many problems when I just go it. The service department can get you right in!!!

  • Sommer Clarke

Absolutely great service I have to say, with all the burdens of my car. Through my frustration and weary patience. They were patient, negotiable, and liable. My list of items fixed, and fortunately haven’t needed to come back since. Lol

  • Cherise Davis

I walked in with little to no hope of walking out with a new vehicle because my credit sucks. But with the help of Kj I walked out with a smile on my face in a 2016 dodge journey with low miles and reasonable payments 10/10 I recommend
