Auto World Fremont — Attraction in Fremont

I bought my 2001 subaru forester back in 2010, and have literally had problems with it from the day I drove it home. On the drive home the check engine light came on, so I took it back and he did fix by replacing the entire exhaust system and oxygen sensor! Not until a few weeks later this heavy vibration showed up coming from the back right wheel and every mechanic that I have brought it to hasn't been able to fix it. Their also seemed to be something wrong with the clutch, I thought it was the fact that I wasn't use to driving that model of vehicle but I'll get to that in a bit. I had to move out of state for awhile for work and when I returned I resumed driving it, if that's what you'd call it, and the clutch seemed to get worse and then while driving up a hill it completely stopped. I found an amazing mechanic in Seattle, Leo's Auto, they are so professional it's unbelievable! Everything that the guy had told me was done before the vehicle was sold wasn't, the spark plugs looked like they hadn't been changed in many, many years. Oh! I forgot, right after I purchased the vehicle I was driving to Bakersfield and the thermostat went way into read, I had to find a service station really fast, they told me the radiator was totally garbage, I watched him pull it and it was so plugged their was nothing else to do but replace it, $397! Long story short, I've only been able to drive this forester 2000 miles at best since I purchased it because of all the problems, and the amount of time and money I've put into it I could have bought something really nice and got better...

Went here recently and got a sweet Subaru Legacy. Chris really knows his stuff, is completely honest and he doesn’t give you pressure to buy.

He showed me several options that fit my needs, was upfront about all the cars’ history and features and the pros and cons of each.

I was in a hurry to get to work and he was very understanding. He worked with my busy schedule to accommodate me. His hours are very extensive and his staff is excellent. He works hard to make sure the car is right for you and I can’t reiterate enough that I felt no pressure to buy, but did anyway because of his honesty, and the value of the cars he sells. I ended up with a gorgeous legacy that makes me feel safe and is still fun to drive, and very practical. Again, I felt no pressure to buy the more expensive or more equipped vehicles. Chris was happy to get me into a car that I like and wasn’t pushy to make an extra buck. He went out of his way to get me floor mats and a cargo mat, and the car was immaculately detailed when I picked it up.

Props to Chris and all his helpful and hilarious staff. I’ve never had such a good feeling about buying a car before and I would highly recommend auto world to anybody who wants a relaxed, honest and stress free used car...

Chris is by far the most trustworthy car salesperson I have ever known. I bought a '99 Legacy from him years ago and my son is driving it now. When I bought it he mentioned the transmission sounded like it might develop problems and if it did to let him know. When the transmission started to go out I told him and true to his word he had it replaced and all I paid for was a couple hours of labor. When the rear main seal went out in the car a 100k miles later, he recommended a mechanic and said to tell him he sold me the car. I did and he gave me a substantial discount. We've been driving this car for years and every step along the way Chris has been pointing us in the right direction. I was so disappointed a few years ago when I learned Fremont Auto World had closed. Hearing it is up and running again is awesome. My son remembers Chris from when we bought the car and anytime we had issues as the car aged he would ask if I needed to call him. He's looking to replace dad's old beater soon and I'm excited to tell him we can get his new...
