  • Great people

    5 out of 5 starsby NickMo on 12/06/2021

    Brett Applegate was great to work with. He was patient with us as we had trouble deciding between so many great vehicles. He was not pushy or overbearing like many sale’s people at other dealerships. The entire staff and buying process were wonderful and exceeded my expectations. My father bought there as well last month from Ammon and had the same positive experience. Reid and Nick and finance were also awesome. 10 stars from me.

  • Purchase your next car @ Doug Smith!

    I have purchased 3 cars from Doug Smith. I go back because of their- Simple, low fees, non-pressure, anxiety-free car buying experience! Do yourself a favor, when thinking about buying a car/truck/van head to your closest Doug Smith. I personally can recommend the team at Doug Smith in American Fork, UT. If you are looking to by a Kia, ask for Dru McDaniel!

    We have bought a few cars from Doug Smith Auto. It has always been a friendly and positive experience. Last week we went there and Tyson was extremely patient. We explained we hadn’t planned to buy that day but we were just getting ideas. He showed us several cars, gave us details, and listened. Doug Smith puts several cars online with prices so when we asked to see certain cars, they already knew our price range, so there was no need for Tyson to pester us about how much we were willing to spend and we could just talk about the cars instead of financing options before we even made a decision. An experience not noticed in other places that immediately wanted to fit us into a specific payment anyway possible. (Which, by the way, doesn’t work for us since we were interested in an overall final cost of a vehicle instead of a payment plan because we want to pay it off early. Anyway Tyson was the only one who found that out because we weren’t chased away buy the wrong questions and high pressure. We were actually with him for several hours, left for an appointment and came back. We did buy a car there that night but mostly due to patience

  • Best car buying experience

    5 out of 5 starsby Jennyr27 on 06/04/2017

    This was by far the best customer service experience I've ever had. I was so impressed with Brad's honesty and will definitely come back to purchase a car again from him in he future. He took a great amount of time to prepare all the information to help me and came in on his day off to help me. He even took the time to personally help me set up my phone on my car and adjust all other settings to make driving the car the best it can be!
    • Jenny, what a pleasant review. I'm so happy to see that Brad worked so well with you and did what he could to keep you informed. Thanks so much for the thoughtful and detailed review. It was a pleasure to have you. We look forward to seeing you again.

  • Extremely pleased with our first sales experience!

    5 out of 5 starsby Paul_Man on 02/27/2017

    This was our first time buying a car and our salesman was Josh. He was very professional, patient, and willing to work with us to get to price that we felt good about. Overall, it was a great and positive experience and I left feeling very good about our purchase. I would highly recommend the dealership to everyone, and if you can get Josh as your salesman, do it. We shopped around at other dealerships before, and the experience we got at Doug Smith with Josh helping us was miles above anywhere else. Go to Doug's, and ask for Josh, you won't regret it!

  • I keep coming back

    5 out of 5 starsby Parker_H on 08/20/2016

    I have purchased 4 vehicles from Doug Smith over the years; 3 Subarus and now a Ram truck. They always help me find what is best for me. As long as Keith works at Doug Smith, I will keep buying from there
    • Parker, thank you for the great review! We're honored to hear that we've been able to be of help over the years. We'll be sure to let Keith know to keep up the excellent work! We appreciate your business, we look forward to seeing you again!

  • Best Dealership in Utah

    5 out of 5 starsby brentkitchen on 07/18/2016

    We just purchased a Subaru Crosstek from Gabe Smith. He was fantastic to work with and very professional. He spent quality time with us until we were satisfied with the options and the price. Dempsey Bowing was very helpful explaining all the options. The Doug Smith sales team is very honest and I will be back to purchase another vehicle from them in the future.
    • Congrats on your new Subaru Crosstek! It is a pleasure to hear Gabe and Dempsey went the extra mile to provide you with an excellent experience. They will be very happy to hear your kind words. We appreciate your business and look forward to seeing you again in the future.

  • Pleasant, but dishonest

    3 out of 5 starsby shepherds1 on 07/12/2016

    Steve was very polite and helpful as we searched for a vehicle, but two big points made it an unfavorable experience. 1. We understand that part of the game of car salesmanship is to wear the buyer down, but the whole process took entirely too long. There wasn't much haggling, so there really was no need for the sale to take as long as it did, nor for us to have to wait an extra almost 30 minutes to get the car back from being detailed once all had been signed. 2. We were also disappointed with the dishonesty over how much of a savings it was stated were getting on the car. We bought a base model vehicle with no bells or whistles, with which we are very happy. But we did not save $7,000 over MSRP. That is a blatant lie, but we realize that is also part of the game of car salesmanship. We should have asked to see the dealer invoice sheet, rather than let the boys crunch the numbers at the privacy of the manager's desk. Their honesty is not required for everyone to walk away happy, but their dishonesty will keep me from recommending Doug Smith Chevy in Spanish Fork to my friends and family.
    • Thank you for the review. We are sorry you felt your experience was less than satisfactory. Our primary focus is to make it a great experience every time for our customers. We have tried to contact you and will keep trying. As always we want you to be happy with your purchase. Please give Marvin a call at your earliest convenience. Thank you.

  • 2012 ram 1500

    5 out of 5 starsby Jonnyboy1979 on 01/21/2016

    We went to Doug smith on a recommendation from a coworker. Brent "shrek" nelson helped us. He knew what we were looking for, the price range we wanted to stay in and kept us in the truck we wanted. He was patient with our 2 young kids. We only test drove the one truck and left with it that night. Brooke was very helpful in financial. She got us the best numbers she could so we could take our truck home. Overall everyone we came into contact with was very pleasant and extremely helpful.
    • Congratulations on your new Ram Truck! Thank you for taking the time to write this awesome 5-star review. We will be sure to let Brent and Brooke know that you appreciated their service! We look forward to seeing you again in the future!

  • Best Dealership in Utah

    5 out of 5 starsby tylheaps on 04/25/2015

    I recently purchased my second car from Doug Smith in American Fork Utah. I returned to purchase my second car because I had such a great experience the first time. Our salesman Justin was very knowledgeable about the cars and treated us very professionally and made sure we were comfortable every step of the way. At no point did we feel pressured to buy. We were given a great price on the KIA we purchased as well as our trade-in vehicle. When I returned the second day to obtain some items we left in the vehicle we traded-in I was greated by name and treated with the same expert service I received when I was buying the vehicle. Doug Smith cares about building lasting relationships to ensure their customers return again and again. I will be buying my future cars from Doug Smith.
    • We're so happy to hear about your great experience at our dealership! Our team strives to exceed the expectations of every customer and provide truly exceptional service, and we're thrilled to know that Justin and the rest of the team were so great. We look forward to seeing you next time!

  • Best car buying experience ever!

    5 out of 5 starsby ellis10 on 09/23/2014

    We had a really bad experience buying our first car and so we were very nervous about going back to any auto dealership. But when we saw an ad for this car, we thought we'd take a chance on Doug Smith Autoplex. Thankfully, this experience was completely different from the previous one! We called Doug Smith Autoplex in American Fork and spoke to Joe V. We explained what we wanted and what price we could pay. To our surprise, Joe listened to us! From the time we set foot into Doug Smith Autoplex to the time we left with our "new" car, Joe never tried to be salesman, he was more like a friend. During the test drive, he showed us which roads to take so we could really evaluate how the car handled. He was polite, professional, and very knowledgeable! During the negotiating stage, Joe was never pushy. He cared about us and our situation. You don'’t find that in many auto dealerships anymore. We appreciated that he was honest with us and gave us what we wanted! We love our Toyota 2010! Thank you, Joe, for your excellent service to us! -The E's
    • Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this great review. We're so glad that we were able to prove to you that car dealerships can take care of their customers and make sure they have a great experience. It's great to hear that Joe took such great care of you. Thank you for your business and we look forward to seeing you again soon!

  • Great Service

    5 out of 5 starsby wagonista1 on 08/31/2014

    Doug Smith is a great dealer. I have bought two Subarus from them. They have great service, are really willing to go out of their way to help you, and have great prices. Will definitely go back next time I need to buy a car. Our salesman, Blaine, and one of the managers stayed very late to help us finish the financing on our Outback. If you want a Subaru, definitely check them out.
    • Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We appreciate your repeat business and we look forward to seeing you again at Doug Smith.

  • Hands down, best sales rep

    5 out of 5 starsby glos on 08/07/2014

    We had just lost our previous vehicle and needed another one fast. We went to the first Subaru dealership we could find (Doug Smith), without ever thinking we would buy from them. We were just browsing and interested in a test drive. After browsing, we had to go to the front desk to ask for help since there were no available sales reps. They actually called over another rep from the Dodge dealer (same Doug Smith dealer) to help us. His name was Dave C. Dave was by far the nicest and friendliest sales rep I had ever worked with (and I have bought many cars over the past 20+ years). What made him different was that he was authentic. He wasn't "trying" to be friendly or "trying" to be nice, he really was, and he seemed so interested in our personal life. He never pressured us to buy anything and we shared a number of good laughs. I felt very comfortable with him. We were also able to quickly come to a negotiable price that we were both happy with. I have never met Dave before but he's the type of guy you'd want to invite over for a friendly bar-b-q. A sincere person! I have never before felt good walking away from a car purchase. This experience changed me. Wherever this guy goes I will follow him to buy my next car. -G.L.
    • That's great that Dave made you feel so comfortable. He's very good with his customers, and we're happy to have him on our team. We appreciate you leaving us a review and we hope to see you again soon.

  • Great Buying Experience and Service

    5 out of 5 starsby Msjk on 08/05/2014

    Just wanted to say that I had a very good experience in my purchase. I was not pressured or pushed into buying my vehicle. My sales rep was ver courteous and my buying experience great. I would like to thank Chase Y for his customer service on helping me and my wife get into our new vehicle. Thnx!
    • Chase is one of our top team members, and we're pleased to hear he was so helpful. We appreciate your review and look forward to seeing you again!

  • Will never go anywhere else

    5 out of 5 starsby Lauren040 on 07/24/2014

    My husband and I were looking to buy a used car. Had a TERRIBLE experience at 3 other dealerships. We walked into Doug Smith on a whim and Chase Y came right up and asked if he could help. From that interaction until the end of the day (literally, 10pm) he was polite, professional, knowledgeable and efficient. We started looking at used cars just thinking we'd browse and we left with 2 brand new Dodge Darts! I won't ever shop anywhere else. If you're looking to buy - go see Chase!
    • Lauren, we appreciate your great review for our team. We love to hear when our team provides a hassle-free experience for our customers. We hope you're enjoying those new Darts!

  • Excellent buying experience!

    5 out of 5 starsby Jkut1979 on 06/28/2014

    We were originally looking at Mazdas and thought we'd try our luck at another dealership because the salesman was obnoxious. When we arrived at Doug Smith Autoplex, we were greeted by Joey D. who was not your typical salesman. He was knowledgable, helpful, and kind. It was a no-pressure experience where we ended up buying a car that we love (so glad we didn't buy from the other dealership) and at a very competitive price. I highly recommend you go see Joey at Doug Smith. You will not regret it!
    • Thank you so much for your feedback about our team, especially Joey. We're glad he could make your experience so enjoyable.

  • Thomas B review

    5 out of 5 starsby Buckelew0 on 06/23/2014

    I had a great experience at Doug Smith! Thomas B was very friendly and really listened to what I wanted. I changed my mind a lot of times but he was never impatient and never made me feel like I was wasting his time. I reached out to him often with questions and concerns and he always got back to me right away with answers. Thanks to him, I got exactly what I wanted and didn't have to compromise, and I never felt pressured(which is a really big deal to me). Even after I bought my car, he followed up with me to make sure I'm happy with it and genuinely cared. I love my new Jeep and I couldn't have picked a better person to buy from! I highly recommend Thomas Bt and am very happy with my overall experience at Doug Smith.
    • We're happy to hear that Thomas provided you with a no-hassle buying experience. A new Jeep is a great choice and we know you won't be disappointed. Thanks for the review!

  • Wonderful Experience

    5 out of 5 starsby whitney55 on 06/17/2014

    Going in as a first time buyer I was really nervous that a car salesman would try to pressure me into something I either didn't want, or couldn't afford. It was the complete opposite at Doug Smith. Our salesman, Lynn, was absolutely fantastic. He didn't pressure us, he gave great suggestions for our situation, and didn't make me feel pressured at all. He knows what he is talking about and was patient with us through all of our many questions. I would recommend Doug Smith Autoplex in a heartbeat. We got a great deal, and didn't feel manipulated. Go see Lynn!
    • Thank you for the recommendation for Lynn and the Doug Smith team, Whitney. We're happy we could serve you for your first car purchase and we can't wait to see you again!

  • Great Service

    5 out of 5 starsby Firsttymebuyer on 06/14/2014

    My experience with Doug Smith has been one of ease, comfort, and understanding. I was NEVER pressured into buying something that I didn't want nor could I afford. Their Sales Rep. Klay K was understanding of my situation and did everything in his power to do a deal that I was comfortable with. He walked me through each and every step of the way in my buying experience. He gave me the time that I required to really think about the deal before we agreed to its details.
    • Thank you so much for your review! We are always happy to see customers leave our dealership having a positive experience, and we're glad that Klay could make that happen.

    I've now purchase 2 cars from Doug Smith and I've been impressed with the service and help! Phil was my sales guy and he was very attentive and worked to find the best car for our needs. Phil went above and beyond to make sure we were completely satisfied with our purchase. We'll be back again!
    • Thank you for taking the time to leave us a great review. We greatly appreciate your repeat business and look forward to doing business with you again.

  • Not Satisfied

    1.8 out of 5 starsby morphias on 11/01/2010

    I went to look at some used cars at Doug Smith recently. I spoke with 2 sales reps and overall was not impressed. First of all, they didn't even want me to drive the cars. The first thing they did was "run the numbers". The first guy had to leave half way through the process, so I got stuck with someone else. Ron, the second one, said he was the new guy, and didn't know much about the car i was looking at. Later on in the process he said he had 2 other guys coming to look at that specific one the very next day, so he must have known something about it. We talked about the car I wanted to trade in and the conversation got pretty heated. I still can't believe after all the stereotypes about used car salesmen, they still always say; "let me go talk to my manager" And they keep coming back with different answers. They say they don't want to play games, but that's all they want to do. They mark up their cars so much and then offer you less than low book trade in on your car. I understand there is money to be made by the dealer, but come on. You expect me to believe that you are only making $500 on the car i want to buy, but you are only willing to pay me 2/3 of what my car is worth. After I left because they couldn't make the numbers work, Ron called me 6 times between 5pm and 8pm. Telling me they were pennies away from making it work out, and I should come back by and we could get a deal done. After the 3rd call, I just had to ignore him. Talk about desperate. I want to give car dealerships a chance, I really do, but every single experience I've had has been just like this or worse. I really hope that managers at these dealerships will start managing the employees and helping them along the way with sales. Instead of just sitting behind a computer and running numbers all day. Find out what a customer really wants and what is going to work for the customer AND the business. In the end, it's not 100% about the customer, but contrary to what Doug Smith and his crew think, it's not 100% about the business either.
