Absolutely disappointed and furious with our experience at Don Franklin-Hyundai, Richmond Rd Lexington, KY. We purchased a brand new car that turned out to have serious mechanical issues after driving it for just more than 2 weeks. It got towed back to them. When we brought this to their attention, they flat-out lied to us, claiming we had no right to return or exchange the vehicle. Their reason was, the documents were already done and transferred to our name. Clearly the car qualifies as a lemon under consumer protection laws. Instead of standing by the product they sold and making it ... Read More

We had a great experience at Don Franklin Hyundai in Lexington. The showroom is beautiful and they had several options of the specific vehicle we were interested in. In fact, I'd say that this dealership has one of the best selections in the state. We passed at least 2 dealers to get to this one. Our sales person, Chad, was patient and great to deal with. This is our second Hyundai but our first from Don Franklin in Lexington and we are very pleased with both the car and the dealership. I highly recommend the dealership and especially Chad who, ...

Brent McCloud provided excellent customer service. He assisted me with getting into a vehicle I loved even though the original one I was looking at was already sold. We were able to work out a great deal entirely through text before making the hour drive to the dealership. Definitely one of the best car-buying experiences that I have been a part of.

Don Franklin Mitsubishi is a fantastic dealership with knowledgeable salesmen.. my salesman was Josh Fire and I had a phenomenal experience dealing with Josh. He was friendly but more importantly he was knowledgeable and very patient. I extremely appreciated his laid back personality. He is from Nicholasville, his family lives there, so he is not going anywhere. It is so meaningful in today’s times that you know you can count on someone being in your corner when you need help. Josh Fite is that very man. Thank you for the great experience.

I reached out and spoke with Ben about a truck. I wasn't sure what i wanted and was shopping around. What had me come back was Ben. If I asked a question he would go and get it and call me right back and not leave me waiting all day. If he said he was going to call me back he did. That right there is why I worked with him. He was professional, polite and fast. 1 of my best buying experiences in 30 years. He did everything in his power to make my buying experience as painless as possible. ... Read More

I've collected cars since 1984, and it's hard to buy vehicles sight unseen from 4-5 states away, Michael Zheng and the rest of the Don Franklin team who were involved with my purchase of a 2005 Dodge Ram Daytona, made things easy with a multitude of extra pictures, videos and in the end to get the vehicle into my price comfortable point even had the vehicle delivered to me.

To start, my past experience was good with Don Franklin, but this time I was never really asked what I was looking for in vehicle by salesman, I was just suggested a vehicle because the one I originally looked at was at a different lot. At no point in time was I asked what I was looking for in a vehicle (I assume the sales person would’ve asked qualifying questions) I traded in a Jeep Cherokee, so AWD definitely would’ve been a ideal. I also came in looking at 2024 models because of special lease promotion. But I was ... Read More

"My experience buying a car from Josh Fite at Don Franklin Mitsubishi was absolutely phenomenal. He was incredibly knowledgeable, PATIENT, and genuinely listened to my needs without any pressure tactics. He took the time to explain all the features and options, and worked tirelessly to get me the best possible deal. I felt completely comfortable throughout the entire process and would highly recommend Josh Fite to anyone looking for a new car!"

This is our second car purchase from this dealership. I have to say, it was even better than the first 5 years ago. The dealership was great. Our Salesman Ben was a perfect fit for us. Down home and friendly like family and we thoroughly enjoyed dealing with him. From salesman to manager to finance, we were treated respectfully, which goes a long way for my wife and I. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a vehicle to give this dealership and it's people a chance. And as a footnote: Ask for Ben !!!

Rip off Dealer. Filed a complaint with the BBB. No response from the rip off dealer. Dodge service Dept is the worst from the service writer that is stuck in the Woodstock area too the service manager that is a full flat out lier to the tech that said I need a $4500,00 exhaust. What a disgrace. Took it to a local shop in michigan and they found and fixed a broken ground wire for the computer. Truck is fixed and it was only $212,00. Not 4500.00 plus labor. Still no response from the owner of Don Franklin or Woodstock.
