Purchased a car this week from Mazda. Overall great experience. Lauren & Tyler both helped make the process painless and easy. Definitely would recommend purchasing a car from mazda.

Just purchased a 2015 Ford Fusion with the help of salesman mike Barney. Really great experience. Will definitely come back for future purchases. Best quality and selection for price ranges. Your money will go way farther here! They are not pushy like other dealerships we went to, they let you take on the lead without trying to up sale or push you towards certain vehicles/prices. We love our car!

Ernie Hernandez was awesome to work with in helping my son with his first car purchase. We had just left another dealership with a horrible experience, and Ernie listened to us and showed us exactly what we were looking for. Most importantly, he made a life-long memory for my son. I would highly recommend working with Ernie and Bill Gatton Mazda!

Get Lauren Sutherland!Super friendly service. Go to Lauren, she’s the best!

Ernie, Kasey, and Daniel were all very friendly and easy to work with. This is a really nice dealership with good selection, fair pricing, and a useful and informative website.We drove from Knoxville to see a vehicle we were interested in. While we did not buy from them this time, we will certainly shop here again due to our very positive experience with such genuine people.

Buyers beware. They tried to hide the frame damage by undercoating it. Customer service basically passed it off as my problem and denied any warranty. Ending up saving my energy and getting rid of it, but I wouldn’t trust this place with any vehicle. Take my situation of wasting money and visit a better dealership.

Jason did a great job helping me find a vehicle everyone is very professional

Worth Peak gave us a great all around experience! I hate going to car dealerships, always have, but these guys make buying a car so much less stressful. They are kind, not pushy and do everything in their power to put you in the car that you want. Both of my kids have gotten there first new car through Worth and my next car will be from here for sure! Thanks for a great experience!

Salesperson was completely useless. I mostly knew what I wanted when I came in and was given no help whatsoever. Didn’t end up buying because I couldn’t get any information about the vehicle from the sales rep. Honestly if you had a different sales person who had some product knowledge and put in enough effort to help customers get the deal their looking for it probably wouldn’t be a bad place, but as it is, it’s useless.

We love our new Mazda CX-9 and are so happy with the entire team at Bill Gatton Mazda who took care of us, especially the salesman Worth Peak. After talking with half a dozen different dealerships Bill Gatton Mazda stood in a class by itself. If I were looking for a Mazda or Acura, or for used inventory I wouldnt go anywhere else.

We just bought a car here and they were great! Worth was our salesman and he was awesome he is very good at his job. We are so happy we chose Bill Gatton 😁

Fantastic experience. We purchased our Mazda from Trevon Hall. The vehicle price, trade in value and all numbers were ironed out by phone and email before we arrived. We drove a few hours to get here and it was well worth it. The process was smooth, friendly and very relaxed. No changes to any of the numbers we discussed up front and no efforts to pressure us into extended warranties we didnt want.We got exactly what we wanted for the terms we discussed up front.Would highly recommend shopping here.

Just like so many others suggest - ask for Worth Peak! From our initial inquiry to signing the papers, he was stellar. When our original choice fell short of our expectations, Worth helped us pick another option that actually matched our needs better than Option #1. He was warm, knowledgeable, and laid-back which made us feel like we were just catching up with an old friend. With its transparent pricing, straight-forward website and personable nature, Id recommend Bill Gattons to any potential buyer.

Would like to say Thank You to Zach Johnson sales associate and all staff at Bill Gatton Mazda for a great job making my Daughter so Happy with the purchase of her new Jeep Wrangler ! We drove a long distance to look at this Jeep and couldnt have asked for better service! Great place to buy with such great People who really go far and beyond to help! Thanks so much !!The Ausmus Family😊

Highly recommended. I had a salesman by the name of Worth Peak, and he was genuine and honest the entire time. He didn’t beat around the bush and he told me what was fact. I got a great deal on a 2018 Hyundai Elantra, and it was honestly a steal. We all know that the dealership can be a sneaky industry, but of all the dealerships I’d put my trust in this one. They empathize with the customer, and aim to make sure you are content before you leave with a great deal on a new car.

The process of buying a new car is never fun. But we walked away with not so much what we wanted but still all in all a very nice vehicle. Zac was very helpful and eventually we found a nice vehicle. Will be going back.

Go to Lauren, she is the BEST!

We actually made an appointment to go look at a Kia Sorento, but unfortunately it was off the lot having a recall fixed. We had looked at several used vehicles on this lot so we decided to test drive a 2012 chevy traverse & even with my low credit they were able to find us a great deal & take my trade in. No pressure they didnt try to oversell anything. It was a great experience & I couldnt be happier with my purchase.

Bought a couple of used cars from here, had a great experience with Zach. He wasnt pushy and just let me get on with the process the way I wanted to and was very responsive. Cant remember the salesman from the first car I got but no negatives then either.

GREAT DEALERSHIP!!! Worth Peak handled my internet sale and covered all the bases with excellent service. What a great guy! I want tell everyone, call or email and ask for Worth! you will not be disappointed!

We bought our second Miata on Saturday from Bill Gatton of Johnson City Mazda dealership. We worked with Worth Peak our sales representative and Chris Hill our financial manager and had the best experience ever. Both men were extremely helpful, knowledgeable, kind, attentive, with great senses of humor, delightful, quick in the financing department, really listened to us, and were most accommodating. We kept them both nearly 2 hours after closing!! I cant say enough good things about them and the way they made us feel very much at home. If you want a fantastic car shopping experience, go see these two!

Got this car on October 2 and Steve frye and Joe did a great job with me find this one and like it

Would like to thank Ethan Jenkins for hooking me up with this great ride, with no pressure and got me everything i needed. Very polite, courteous, and knowledgeable about the car. And a big thanks to Chris Hill for the great deal i got . Love my Mazda 3 hatchback awesome car. Recommend Bill Gatton Mazda to everyone.

Salesman Rob and the finance manager both made the process smooth and pleasant. No hassle or pressure and the vehicle purchased was a great deal. My wife and I traveled nearly two hours from Knoxville to make the purchase and feel it was worth it. Would definitely recommend.

Car dealerships can be intimidating and I wanted to go to a place that had a good reputation and was not pushy. I had a great experience at Bill Gatton Mazda. Everyone I spoke with was kind and especially Worth Peak. I highly recommend him! He helped me get the exact car I wanted, at the price that was best for me, and made sure my car had everything it needed including making sure it was cleaned and detailed just right. He’s a gem! And I LOVE my new Mazda! Thank you!

Awsome service. Rick Leonard went above and beyond to help me get in my vehicle. Realy great people.

Daniel Smith and Chris Hill were exceptional to work with. Daniel was very patient and diligent in finding the CX-5 we wanted. He kept us updated over the couple of weeks it took. Chris walked us through all the purchase options and covered the transaction details thoroughly. Both Daniel and Chris reflect well for the dealership!

Skippy went above and behind by delivering a used 4runner. However. What I was told over the phone and what I received were 2 different things. I asked if the under carriage was rusted and was told no. Its in the shop now because the check engine light came on supposedly on the way to Knoxville. You just need a tune up. Nope a $4000 + job with the catalytic converter replacement and because all rusted out, the job has over 8 hours due to broken bolts = more labor. After market radio was turned up so loud when it was delivered, that I couldnt hear the loud crackling because it wasnt hooked up correctly nor was the rear view camera, which Skippy promoted over the phone. Not hooked up. Now I have to pay an electrical / audio company to fix that. It is my fault for not seeing the vehicle before I committed to it. And I actually believed what the sales person told me which was my second mistake. I was lied to, and that is on them.

I was very pleased with the sales team and everyone when I purchased my car here. Until 4 days later it started giving me a check engine light and other errors. I called to see what they would do for me and the service department was condescending and rude. When I spoke with the sales manager they said id get an appointment made and get me taken care of. Only to find out it was going to cost me over $100 for diagnostic and then parts and labor(easily another couple hundred dollars).It is the Mass Air Flow sensor thats either dirty or gone bad, the part is $100 and is two screws to replace, even less expensive if it just needs to be cleaned.I purchased a warrantee and again have only been driving this vehicle for 4 days!It seems to me that Bill Gatton cleared the codes on this car and then sold it to me, up-sold me on a warrantee then said CYA instead if taking care of their customer.Buyer beware, I would never bring my car here, or purchase another vehicle from them again.I went to Firestone in kingsport, they charged me $10 to diagnose and clean my MAF and get me back on the road. Bill Gatton is an absolute scam do not go here.

Had a great experience with this place today. Hunter did an awesome job making sure the buying experience was easy and made sure I was satisfied with the vehicle and the deal. Cory in finance got us out quick and explained everything well. Overall great experience here.

We had a really wonderful experience being taken care of by the salesman Worth. He was not pushy and talked to us like a normal dude about the car. We ended up purchasing the vehicle after agreeing on the price. The process was quick, easy, and they were very accommodating at this location. I would recommend checking them out if you’re in search of a good deal and very friendly staff! Ask for Worth!

They have made appropriate changes due to the virus. The mechanic confirmed my observation and did what made sense to address the issue. The service took less time than they estimated.

Bought a used one here. If you think you’re being cautious buying from a dealership rather than a third party, think again.Noticed low coolant and transmission fluid, called the salesmen and asked if they’d give me a discount on a CVT transmission fluid change ( 300-400$ and only a dealership will do it BC it requires a special tool) since I just bought the car a few days ago and everything. Was told “I’ll have to talk to my manager” and I never got a call back.In fact, most of the used cars we test drove had obvious mechanical issues - out of alignment, needed brakes, etc. Meaning they don’t have their maintenance department inspect them before sale. Dunno if this is an industry wide thing now or not, but sketchy behavior nonetheless. Most of the used inventory sold “as is” unless otherwise specified. So, you’re better off just buying from an individual.You would expect they’d give you something for pretty much paying top dollar, but no. Dont get grifted.

Our experience was excellent. We worked with Worth Peak, and from the moment we got there to the moment we left, there was a clear focus on getting us the best bang for our buck. Everything was transparent and timely. Thank you!

Chris Hill was wonderful and very easy to work with. He explained most of the features on the Mazda CX 5 . I love my new car and would recommend Bill Gatton Mazda of Johnson City to everyone. Everyone Ive met has been very helpful. All my questions were answered even those I called about. They are a 5 star dealership. Thanks , Chris, Cory and all those whos names I dont know.

Bought car Terrain took it to my mechanic and its rusted out wouldnt recommend

Worth Peak was awesome to work with! This was the smoothest car buying experience I’ve had. 10/10 Recommend!

Very friendly people. We went to look for a car for my son who just graduated. We got a great deal and they really worked with us on the price and financing!

Trevon Hall helped me out tremendously, it was my first time purchasing a vehicle with a payment & he made my experience super easy so I would know what I was getting into. I recommend him to anyone, he has patience & will do anything in his power to help someone out!

Salesman seemed more annoyed at having a customer than anything.

Must go see David D.!! He was amazing and super helpful. Was not pushy at all and listened to what the customer wanted versus what needed to be off the lot. All around amazing! Quick and seamless vehicle purchasing in the finance section and so much help from David!! Love love love my new car!

This dealership is super friendly and helpful. All of the vehicles were fairly priced. My sales consultant Rick Hill was very personable. Thank you!

Lloyd and Chris were a pleasure to work with. They weren’t pushy at all. A great experience all around!

Very friendly great help on my mazda recalls gave me a rantal im in love with this 2020 mazda 3 i wamt it so bad now 😂😂 (i got the mazda 3 I love it) just gotta figure out how to get my account stuff set up so i can make the payments ( update:got the 2020 mazda3) good payment and low intrest rates

I DO NOT recommend this place. I told my salesperson really clear I don’t want more than 2 banks to run my credit ... however without my permission they did in a lot of places .. a lot ... now I am trying to complaint directly with their headquarters about it cause they don’t reply my mails..... —— FURTHERMORE BETWEEN OTHER MAKES AND COMPANIES ... this people give a lot of interest ...I will take this to further steps.

My son teenage son bought a 2016 mustang from this dealership. (He knows nothing about cars.) He purchased this car at night. The next day we go out to look at his car and they sold him a car for 14k with bald tires. Then we get looking the car over better and the back up camera doesnt work. So he calls down there to see what they can do as far as fixing the issues. We are told he could buy tires from them if he would like. And the used car mgr is out of town and they cant tell us anything about the camera. So we wait a few days and go down there to be told again the mgr is still out of town. But pretty much bought it AS IS so they doubt it would be approved to be fixed. My son should not have to just buy this car then turn around and put a grand in it to have tires for the winter and camera fixed...Poor customer service.

Mr. King in the mechanic department was absolutely fabulous to work with. He was straight forward, honest and didnt try to pull the wool over our eyes when we took in our older Mazda for repair. He saved us a ton of money and heartache. Ill definitely be a regular Mazda customer at Bill Gatton as long as hes there.

Dont bother with their service department. Definitely dont bother with an appointment. You are, literally, better off driving to NC and getting your work done there. Apparently they take 4 hours to complete an oil change and tire rotation and expect the customers to believe that it was because employees called out sick. Looks like they suck at finding good technicians, too.

Daniel and Chris was wonderful ! They help us so much one of the best dealership . We have deal with thank you guys again so much ! Love my mazda !

Daniel was great. He will take good care of you.

Whether it is a regularly scheduled appointment or an emergency situation, Chris Holt is the man to call for all your needs! He has always been quick, friendly, and efficient when servicing my vehicle. I always come away with good feelings about the experience, and that is important! Getting good service is rare these days, and Chris sees to it that you get just that!

These guys took great care of my son on his first vehicle purchase. Highly recommend them

This was my first time buying a car from a dealership. Zach was extremely helpful he answered all my questions while balancing two other customers his customer service was top notch and he is a good face for this dealership.

I bought a 2015 charger a few months back and everything about the experience was great. Jeremy was the sales guy and he was very honest with us. Had an issue with the radio after the sale and they even helped out after the sale. We drove 2 hours to get there and it was worth it. I highly recommend them their internet deals are very good.Keep doing what youre doing.

Looking for a car. In the end we didnt buy here but the sales person was friendly and communication via emails and text was quick.

I just bought my FIRST brand new car, a 2017 Mazda3, and I was so nervous. But everyone at Bill Gatton could not have been more helpful. Even though Im from New Hampshire, Casey the manager did all the necessary research to make sure my taxes and registration were correct. The process was so easy and quick, and I would definitely recommend this dealership! I love my new Mazda so much!!

Trevor, Hilary and Jessee were awesome! I really felt their goal was to make sure I felt no buyers remorse after the sale. It was a great low pressure highly attentive experience. My only regret is not adding more accessories to my wifes new Mazda with Hilary.

Chris in service is the best service advisor I have ever worked with. He has a great personality and always knows what my vehicle needs. I can always trust what he tells me. He is the best.

I went to have a recall repaired, and was provided with EXCELLENT service! Chris notified me, and I had actually two recalls on my vehicle, which were both fixed, and a full service report was also given to me. All of this was done in a very timely manner, so my kids and I didnt have too wait long at all. Overall, great experience and will definitely be back :)

We went here to look at a used Jeep and met loyd a great guy that wasn’t pushy and everyone else was really nice also will go back again when I need a car thanks loyd

Was with my son buying a car he had a good buying experience easy in and out!

Very nice and personable staff. Easy to work with. Process couldnt have been easier or went better. Would definitely recommend Bill Gatton Mazda to anyone!

Shopped around for an almost new car all around Johnson City TN. Brian Cook was very helpful and made the whole process as easy as possible. He did everything he could to take care of us and earn our business.

Best car buying experience I have had. Garrett was awesome and made the whole process simple.

I usually don’t like to write negative reviews, but this was such a negative experience, I feel I must share. First, I waited in the hot, humid sun for a sales person a lot longer than one should especially when I saw two were looking at me. Then he finally came down and he acted like it was such a bother. Second, I knew more about the vehicle than he did.Third, When I test drove the vehicle, he said he had to go with me and he didn’t even say it or explain it in a nice way either. Actually his tone was condescending. He said it was standard for insurance purposes. It may be their “standards” but not at other auto dealerships I have recently visited.The sales person just had a very negative attitude from the beginning and it didn’t improve.Not happy with the treatment AT ALL I WILL NEVER GO BACK AND I WILL TELL ALL MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY. MAYBE, I’m just use to the 5 star treatment I always receive at JC Ford Lincoln. Worst experience EVER!!! Totally insulted and it takes a lot to insult me.

I was very impressed when I took my car in for a warranty repair. The service department had me take a ride with a technician so that they knew exactly what was going on. They ended up fixing the suspension issue in less than an hour, then had us drive around to verify I was satisfied with the repair. This was not a simple alignment issue, but rather a shifting component in the suspension causing a harmess yet annoying noise. I have had the displeasure of dealing with noises in cars before, so I was genuinely impressed with the speed and accuracy of the correction. Often, in my experience with other service departments, if you come in with a minor inconvenient complaint, thats how you are treated, like a minor complaining customer. Not here, I was treated like a valuable customer and I was provided a service with a sense of urgency and genuine concern with my satisfaction of it.

I read tons of reviews before stopping by and now I can agree, fantastic work at Bill Gatton. I worked with Jeremy James. He was curteous, professional and maintained excellent communication with me. He went out of his way to ensure I was happy and the finance manager got me into the payments I needed WITH a warranty! I told them ONE credit pull and they did. Im very pleased and I know I can count on them. FINALLY a dealership in JC that is trustworthy and focuses on the customer and not their pockets. Theres a reason several reviews say they keep coming back and doing business! Highly recommended! If u see this, Thanks Jeremy!

Our recent purchase of a Mazda CX-3 at Bill Gatton Mazda of Johnson City was an experience that exceeded all of our expectations. Josh has been great in patiently helping us w/ our needs/questions even after we purchased the car. Our research lead us to seriously look at this car, but Josh was the reason we bought it. We would definitely recommend him to anyone whos going to buy a new or used car. We just love our Mazda and feel right at home w/ Josh at Bill Gatton.

Had the BEST experience with David, Nick, and the staff here at Bill Gatton today. Zero pressure, only kindness and concern. They went above and beyond to help me. I am immensely grateful!

Was very impressed with the Mazda Service team, very knowledgeable and explained things very well for me to understand. Was great to feel that they are really there for their customers!!! Would highly recommend their service department to whomever needs repair work done!!!!

Always enjoy this place. Got oil change and car vacuumed. Nice friendly service. Everyone always busy doing their job. Special place.

Chris was very helpful and got me out rather quickly

Chris Holt always takes care of my car and he goes out of his way to be sure everything is done in a timely manner and I feel like a valued customer. Great service!

Salespeople promise you the world and under deliver. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere.

Friendly people and a good selection of vehicles and a very good service department

Good service! They wash and vacuum your car for free with any service. Not the fastest but the wash is a nice perk. Book ahead of time online.

Bill Gatton Mazda has a top notch service center, very prompt and efficient. Chris Holt is trustworthy, friendly and professional. We highly recommend Bill Gatton Mazada service department to anyone.

Brought my car in for service. Worked with Don K and was very good to work with. He explained what needed to be done to the car and the work done was satisfactory

Service Department: Not a good experience.Went to get my car serviced and they asked me if I had a 30,000 mile service. They said that my transmission fluid needed to be flushed. I wasnt sure, so I called the dealership that I bought the car from and had gotten all my service at in the past and they said DO NOT flush your transmission fluid. Its sealed and SkyActiv Mazdas have lifetime transmission fluid that only needs to be changed when a major transmission component or the entire transmission needs replacement. I checked the manual in my car, and sure enough, transmission flush was NOT on there. Then they asked me if I wanted to replace the cabin filter for $80 or something. I said no because I had one at home that cost me $8 and took about 2 minutes to put in. Finally they told me I needed to replace my brake pads this visit or the next. I said Id do it next time. Its been over a year and probably 15,000 miles and I just took my car to another shop and they said my brake pads are fine and do not need replaced. WHAT?! Are you kidding me?! Super bummed with my experience, but maybe it was just a bunch of unfortunate circumstances happening at once. Only writing this review in the hopes that they read this, and can fix some of those problems in the future.

Found the vehicle online called the dealer and I spoke to Jeremy James a salesman and he had the vehicle waiting on me the next morning The dealership whole staff was very nice and respectful. I will do business with them again

They are awesome! Used to own a Mazda and went here, now I have a 4Runner and still go here! Great guys!

Service department has always gone above and beyond to keep our RX-8 working their best and safe. Scheduling is accurate and their loaner car program means I can get on with my day.

My wife bought her 2013 Mazda from here. It is the only place she will take the car even for oil changes. She is totally happy with the staff and the service.

DO NOT GO HERE THEY ARE SCAMS! Tried to charge me $80 to just be able to order the parts! GO SOMEWHERE ELSE

In Johnson City for Zoomin The Mountains event with other Miata owners, had some strange noises a day before our scheduled drive at Bristol Motor Speedway. Friendly staff at Bill Gatton had me in, checked over and fixed in a couple of hours. Enjoyed the rest of the events and our trip back to Niagara (Canada) with peace of mind. Thanks!!

They try to sell cars that need mechanic work and insist nothing is wrong with them.

Best dealership in the area. Could not be happier with the car, price and service after the sale. I wish I could give 10 stars.

I recently received an oil change from the service department and was disappointed with the service I received. First off I requested a shuttle to pick me up at work and was told that they would take care of it. Upon leaving work I called to confirm my pick up and was unable to get in touch with the service department for 20 minutes. I ended up walking 5 miles to the dealership in hopes that I made it before closing. Second, my bill is always a different amount and often overcharged most of the time. My bill has never been right the 5 times I have been there. I was also told that my rewards amount was applied to my bill when in truth it wasnt because the balance remained the same. I purchased my Mazda 3 from this dealership back in 2011 and plan on upgrading to the newer model in the near future but will reconsider if the service department does not get it together. Charges need to be in a simple format so I know exactly what I got and exactly what I paid for.

Chris Holt did a great job with our recent visit. He was professional and assisted us quickly and thoroughly explained all our services.

Easily the only place I have ever bought a new Mazda from.

It was a stress free experience dealing with Cory and everyone I came in contact with.Everything during the sales and finance experience went smooth and quickly and was a pleasure doing business with your Co.I have purchased from Bill Gatton before.Thanks to everyone for your help.JMM

I had to go to Bill Gatton Mazda/Acura, from Morristown, for warranty work on my Mazda 6 and they were wonderful. The service department had a new 2018 Mazda 6 ready for me and they even washed my car! I loved the entire experience!#billgattonmazda

Despite the fact I had two keys for my Mazda 3 I was trading in when I bought my Mazda CX-5 In July they only gave me one key. They gave zero indication I would not be receiving 2 keys during the buying process which I thought was standard. After I completed all my paperwork and they handed over a key I asked about the spare and they said it didn’t come with one. When someone is making a purchase over 20 grand a spare key should come with it. I used them for two car purchases and all my servicing until this incident.

Bill Gatton Mazda is awesome, they have been there many times for me with my Mazda! Would highly recommend!

Service department great very professional. Don explained thoroughly in a way I could understand.

They do great work and have a very professional know-how staff

Bill Gatton Mazda service is the best! I would recommend there department to everyone, will not be disappointed!

I cannot recommend Bill Gattons and David Difillippo enough. In all my years of car buying, I have never had a more pleasant buying experience. David was very knowledgeable, amiable and patient with me. So if you are one who dreads the entire car buying experience, please go see David Difillippo at Bill Gattons. Youll be glad you did. I know Im sure glad I did.

I purchased a 2017 Mazda CX-3 Grand Touring AWD today in dynamic blue mica. Joshua Buchanan was my salesman and I could not have asked for a better experience. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and there was no pressure. He explained the entire process and even calmed me down because he knew I was nervous buying a new car. Josh was also friendly to my shelter dog Mongo, who came along for the new ride purchase! Ill definitely recommend this dealership to all my friends and family because of the great service I received from Josh, his sales managers, and everyone else!

Great experience start to finish! Everyone was friendly and helpful.
