BUYER BEWARE
BUYER BEWARE: 30-Day Delivery, 10-Minute Breakdown, 3-Year Nightmare I paid $70,000 for this Aston Martin from TX Auto in Houston, TX. It was represented as inspected and in proper working condition. Delivery took over 30 days instead of the promised 3. Within minutes of receiving the car, it broke down and would not restart after I stopped for fuel. TX Auto took it back, returned it, and said it was fixed. It was not. Nearly 3 years later, the car still does not run, and I have had to hire attorneys and pursue legal action to try to get a resolution. No one should spend $70,000 and end up with a car that failed within minutes of delivery. This was my experience with TX Auto. Buyer beware.
Response from TX Auto Group HoustonApr 17, 2026
We appreciate you sharing your experience, and we want to be transparent with anyone reading this. When this concern was brought to our attention, we acted quickly — we retrieved the vehicle, sent it directly to an authorized Aston Martin dealership for service, and covered the cost of repairs. We also offered a full return and refund, which was declined. It is also worth noting that nearly three years have passed since the original transaction and the service was completed — a timeline that introduces many variables outside of any dealership’s control or responsibility. We are confident in the steps we took and stand fully behind the efforts we made to resolve this early on. Our team remains available to anyone with questions about their experience.
