I bought a car from them they stated me and my husban needed 2k down, we gave them 1k in cash that day, they made us sign a letter stating that we would pay them another thousand with in two weeks, fine well when we came back, to get our car with the rest of the money, the car was never fixed, it never even was inspected, they REFUSED to switch us into another car even worst, we had test driven the car for 3 days, we had problems with it they never fixed them I left 500 worth of items in the trunk which i went back the next day to get they stole it. we also were stuck with this car or forfit 1k.

no so we had to get this pos. it had custom parts on the car, THEY STOLE IT when they put it threw inspection, they broke my alarm, they scratched it up and NEVER FIXED IT ok, so the car was inspected well the headlights were PUT in with duck tape....... well they also sold us this powertrain warranty 3,000 (supposly it was given to us not) well if any thing happens to the trans or engine or what not, they would fixed YEAH the warrently covers lubercant, hello you can buy lubercant from walmart for .99 cents.

4 days after having the car the clutch went, 2 months later the trans, the engine, the axles, the slave cynder, the headgasket, the starter, every few weeks something was breaking.... and guess what I am stuck with this car that was suppose to be 6900 after fiancing I have paid about 5to 6 grand just fixing it and its been just under a year, and guess what my 6900 AFTER fiancing...

WE ALSO CHARGE 23.99% APR FINANCING. I'M SURE YOU ALL CAN APPRECIATE THE WAY WE DO BUSINESS AFTER ALL WE DON'T START SEEING OUR MONEY BACK UNTIL THREE YEARS LATTER.

I too was a victim of St. Marys Motors

I am sorry Lindsay for what happened to you, I wish I would have read this report myself a couple years back. This company buys cars from surplus auctions, all of which are mostly insurance fix-ups, high mileage garbage and/or cars left on side of roads. I too fell victim to this company. I found a car for 5000, neg. it down to 4000, I too put down 2k and had payemts of 250 for 36 months..do the math. Believe you me I did but I needed a car ya know. I saw this with my own eyes, after the owner (Al Gardner) finding out the price that was agreed upon was so low, had the financial guru Jeff here jack my interest from 13-19% to make up for losing off the sticker, sleeze ball. They had to fix valve cover gaskets on the car the day after I drove it home. About 2 weeks later the trans axle went which there wonderous warranty did not cover. This place sells junk cars at premium prices and believe you me, the only thing premium about St. Marys Motors is the prices. This place takes advantage of people who are in already vulnerable positions and I hope others read this and be warned before they decide to purchase from them. Happy Hunting

I am the Geberal Manager Of The Company You Are Slandering. I have been the general manager of the company for the past 3 years and have worked there for the past 5. In my time employeed there I have helped thousands of customers with credit issues and have personnaly gone above and beyond the call of duty many times to help people. The complaint doesnt make sense and isnt valid. If you have a thought or a legitamate beef with St. Marys Motors Inc. Give me a call I dont duck phone calls and am willing to hear your side of the story. But the truth of the matter is that your complaint is blited by the fact that it is one sided and blind to the true facts.

Hello Ripoff.com and Lindsey, My name is Carol, I was doing a search on the Internet for St Mary College and I came across the complaint that Lindsey from Mechanicsville wrote. Well never the less, I also bought a vehicle from St Marys Motors but my story is different. I had an excellent experience at this dealership my Salesperson was very helpful. When ever I have had a problem with my 93 Mercury Sable Mr. Al Gardiner always made sure I was given a loaner vehicle. After the sale the service has always been good. If it werent for Mr. Gardiner I probably wouldnt be driving a vehicle. He helped me and gave me a chance to reestablish my credit. With this said I find it hard to believe how Lindsey from Mechanicsville claims she was treated. So Mr. Al Gardiner if you ever read this I say again to you Thank You for your help.
