I had an excellent experience with AJS Auto Sales, especially working with Anthony. Even though I ended up purchasing my new vehicle from a different dealership, Anthony went above and beyond to help me through the entire process. I was trading in a car that I originally financed through AJS Auto, and after the bill of sale was signed, the other dealership tried to cancel the deal because they didn’t want to accept a trade-in financed by a private lender. Anthony stepped in immediately, gave me solid advice, and helped me deal with the other dealership professionally and confidently. Thanks to his guidance and support, the issue was resolved and I was able to get the vehicle I wanted. Anthony genuinely looked out for my best interests and didn’t have to help as much as he did — but he did, and that says a lot about his character and AJS Auto Sales as a whole. Highly recommend AJS Auto Sales and Anthony if you want honest advice and someone who truly has your back.

Looking for used vehicles can be a daunting experience. What I liked about AJS Auto Sales was their honest and sincere interest to conclude a sale that was both beneficial to the customer as well as their business needs. Communication was prompt and effective. After a few days of looking at a couple vehicles my vehicle needs changed and I had to put a purchase on hold.AJS was understanding of that and have maintained my interest and trust to come back to them when I am ready to purchase. They have the right approach when it comes to the used vehicle market in my opinion.

AJS Auto Sales are honest, fair, and deliver exactly what they promise. I recommend them to family and friends, and if I ever decide to add another car to my household, they’ll be my first stop. They followed through on everything they said they would do, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. I absolutely love my car!

We purchased a used vehicle from AJS in Oct 2025 and the service was amazing. We were preparing for a long drive and the team there made sure the vehicle was in tip top shape. No surprises, just straight talk and excellent service. Thank you!
