“We bought a used Toyota Yaris less than 3 years old in the middle of June. My partner complained of it being noisy but just thought they were noisy cars. However it was necessary for me to drive it a couple of weeks ago Immediately I knew there was a wheel bearing gone on it. She had only done 1100 miles in the car. It was 2 weeks outside the 3 months warranty but it was obvious this had been gone for a long time. We took it back to Evans Halshaw at Burnley who weren’t interested but said they would have a look at it. They contacted us to collect it and said they weren’t prepared to do anything We also asked them about the brakes that were grinding. They said they put new disc pads on before she got it. We were disgusted and took it to a reputable garage. They found that the wheel bearing was on the point of collapse and this couldn’t have happened in 1100 miles. Also the brake pads were down to the metal and were the original pads fitted when the vehicle was manufactured three years ago. Why did they lie and say they had fitted new ones. I would not buy a nut and bolt off them. Do not expect any after sales backup if you buy from them. I am keeping all the parts in case anyone would like to see them and a reminder never to buy off Evans Halshaw again. No wonder they only have 2 stars they don’t deserve that”

“Do not buy a car from Evans Halshaw! i got drawn into buying a Ford Focus that looked decent on photos that not only do they just polish up the car etc and use quick repair alloy paint but they seem to even photoshop and edit photos so you cant see scratches and dents. They falsely advertise that vehicles come with service history and will be serviced before sale, now lets get onto my experience. Bought a Focus 14 plate with 62k miles, claimed full service history yet its had two services both low miles so its had two services in 7 years? they told me the car would be checked and serviced before delivered and was it? nope...car turned up with no coolant, oil just on minimum, water for washer fluid etc and brakes were shot to bits! They sold me the car with faults, horn not working, parcel shelf broke, no matts, cig lighter not working, gearbox juddering which amazes me that they had the cheek not to just sell me the car with a gearbox broken but to happily drive it 120 miles to me for delivery and hand me the keys!! took them twenty something days to fix my gearbox and sent someone to fetch it and drive it back to Blackpool 120 miles with a broken gearbox..the logic! Its clear to me now that they do zero checks, they rely simply on the previous owner to of looked after the vehicle and do nothing they are simply just there selling as many cars as possible regardless of the state of them! i also realised a few days in that my cars boot lines dont line up equal so the previous owner either took a rear end or reversed into something but either way its not recorded. Sold me a doctored up car and didn't care, they covered up things so about time warranty ran out and i was hit with failing parts and they didn't care! previous owner clearly wanted rid so just threw it at these lot to sell it someone else so its their problem. - Never serviced my car but promised 3 times - Sold/delivered with broke gearbox and other faults - Sold with below minimum for fluids - Wrongfully stamped the book when brakes etc wasn't checked - Took their time fixing my car like i didn't need it! - Delivery was a man who left wrappers on my seats and a coffee in my door and just had me sign and ran off!”

“Absolutely disgraceful customer care after discussing a vehicle at evens Halshaw Sunderland with Barry the salesman we told him we were driving up from Evens Halshaw Middlesbrough to view and possibly buy, when we got there 40 minutes later we were shown the car then informed it was already sold, no phone call no apologies or explanation couldn’t speak to the salesperson (Barry) he was busy well thank you very much Barry the salesman what a waste of my time and fuel to get there to be told they have sold it in the time we drove to the dealership, stay away from these unprofessional cowboy salesman who can’t even offer an apology”

“Ordered car got a personal video as to far to travel payed for delivery and bank transfer of £19995 for vehicle had to get tax and insurance for vehicle before delivery vehicle arrived no fuel chipped windscreen .which I’m still waiting on them replacing scuffs on body tyres with just over 3 m On them no paper work to say if vehicle had been serviced before delivery no manual or service book you would think after paying that kind of money for a car they would try and keep the customer happy .have taken car to pentland landrover and payed for a service myself .im still waiting on a curtesy call but not interested in customer after they have your money very poor service .”

“I recently had the need to purchase a Car online without actually being able to see it myself as I live in the Midlands, and I have to say I have been very impressed by the handling of this by Andy Crooks in Hull who all the way through made sure I had all the information both visually and in writing for the purchase and arranged quick delivery. The car was exactly as described and everything went according to plan. On happy customer :-)”

“People seem happy with their purchases but its all very well until you encounter an issue. 1 star is generous for the complete lack of any service and response to my emails to their so called customer service line (4 emails sent by me and the warranty company Pendragon has lodged 3 formal complaints also and zero response) The service Dept no longer respond to my direct emails of which there has been well over 20 emails where none of the promises have been kept, preferring to brush this matter under the carpet, constantly i was given excuses,saying they would get me an answer the following day, but then time and time again it is completely ignored or forgotten with no resolution. I bought a second hand car that was delivered to me with a fault, which left my rear tyres heavily worn on the inside and a loud humming noise from the rear of the car. I was told to take it to a dealer to get checked, which isolated the issue through their diagnostic tools. I followed all of the instructions from Evans Halshaw fully and have been noting but patient, but now they have completely stopped responding to my communications leaving me without any solution or information and i am stuck with a 120000 pound car i feel uneasy about using now (this has now been going on for over 3 months) All i want is for someone to communicate and let me know what can be done about it. I am not asking for the moon here.”

“I recently purchased a car from Evens Halshaw Plympton Plymouth. In doing so l was approached by a salesman of the name Stefan Mitrev who l must say was a credit to Evens Halshaw. With his polite manner and very thorough in all products information that he went through in detail and selling me a three year warranty. Very happy with my perches thanks to Stefan .He couldn’t have been more helpful.Five stars from me”

“My experience would take far too long to fully explain. I went to the Evans Halshaw in Milton Keynes. I do not know the salesman name in question because he never introduced himself. He couldn’t have been less interested if he tried. He was so incredibly unfriendly and so unhelpful. When inspecting my car for a part exchange,which is six years old, with a dent in the side & some scratches,he screwed his face up & criticised my car! I’ve never felt so uncomfortable, ever. I had to leave. It felt like my small budget was no interest to him. I went to another garage that day & was treated with respect & I’ve reserved a car. I’ve submitted a complaint to head office.”

“Back in THE START June 2021I bought a car after being sent a personal video of the car, i called and spoke to Jamie the car salesman who described the car and assured me any issues would be rectified before it left to be delivered. Now this car cost almost £20k and i knew of recalls which were present on this type of car, again i was assured they'd all be done prior to delivery... so i bought it. So delivery day comes, the car had the exact issues with iot that were supposed to had been checked (and as the salesman said) double checked BEFORE it was delivered.I wont go into it and bore you all but its taken me ALMOST 3 months to get the car sorted by a DS dealer and only today i got everything done , its now 20th AUGUST! I had to open a case against them using resolver and finally the manager agreed to pay for the issues but would not compensate me for the 4 round trips at 80 miles each, the time i had to take off work and the stress of having to use hire cars while all this was done. sorry to say i definitely do not recommend this company.”

“Bought a 2017 blue bmw 335d three weeks ago, newcastle for £19500 and had delivered supposed to be excellent condition, but on car coming of transporter I saw a couple of scratches on door, and the front bumper headlights windscreen covered in stone chips. I immediately phoned them back, to be told what do you expect from a car 4 yr old. Because car was a hugh spec and inside was stunning, I priced up a bumper respray which was £400 and asked whether they would go half's. They replied immediately they have want car back, which let to my suspicion why the car was wanted back. I paid a specialist BMW garage to check car and found it was accident smashed and not recorded. Lift bonnet and it was the left suspension turrent with diabolical sealant around new repair and the sticker still showing on new inner wing. I got my money back after 5 days but was out of pocket as had sold my car so no vehicle and asked whether they could help with hire car, I'd paid insurance and then cancelled it with a fee for doing so. The manager told me where to go? Surprise surprise car is for sale again today in same garage for £500 quid less, and no mention of accident damage. Be ware of evans halshaw.”
