The salesman LIED TO ME and said the '12 Hyundai Elantra I wanted to trade in had an engine recall. I asked him to show me where on the Carfax it said that, and he said it wasn't on the Carfax. I checked with Hyundai's website, and there are NO current recalls on my car. THEY ARE SIMPLY LIARS! Too bad this review won't let me give them zero stars.

Got a little jeep liberty 2007, 4X4, pretty deep blue in color, 5 speed, so far so good. Price was good. Very nice people and very easy to work with in reference to price decrease and payment.

Great experience, very professional. Until 2 weeks, then our vehicle needed to get work done on it. Then after $4000.00 and only driving the vehicle for 3 months. We had to junk it. But you decide.

We had a great experience at J and P regarding our recently purchased car and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a vehicle.
