We had a great experience buying a CX-5 here last January. Anthony and the sales manager were very personable and made sure we were satisfied. Typical sales tactics but probably less pressure than the average. They made trading in my old VW easy. It all made buying my first new car more enjoyable than expected. 7 months later and still I’m very satisfied with my car.

Went here once when they were under construction and it’s a completely different location now. Seems like a well oiled operation. Everyone at the front desks were friendly, there was a nice waiting area with plenty of outlets to do work and unlike the old Tyson’s location this one has fast wifi. Shout out to Franklin for going above and beyond to get me out of there in time for an appointment to save me the cost of an Uber.

HUGE shoutout to Mark, Paul, and Omar! I was one of the first customers in the brand new location - and we worked a deal that I was happy with even before coming in. Process could’ve been faster, but I understood with them still setting up. I’ve been to a few Mazda dealerships and they definitely went above and beyond.

Umar was absolutely wonderful. He executed skill and professionalism. I asked for what I needed and he made it happen for me. I was able to meet the rest of the team who were equally kind, confidential and worked with me to get a high end car for a reasonable price! So grateful. God bless them.

Had a wonderful experience with Safford Mazda Fairfax. Highly recommend Umar. He was professional knowledgeable. Listened to what was important to me in a car and didn’t pressure me into buying something I didn’t want. The car buying process can be very stressful, but Umar and the Safford team made it easy and seamless. I never felt uncomfortable negotiating and felt like we came to a good deal for both sides. Loving my new car! Thank you for the great experience.

Just leased a new Mazda CX 30. After moving here a few months ago life has been a bit hectic. Umar Saiyed was a terrific help with reaching out to me with the answers to any questions I had and his great attitude. As well as the rest of the staff inside. I had a poor experience at the last dealership I went to. At Safford Brown I went in with a negative attitude and came out with a positive experience.

And, there was no pressure from him, which isn’t alway the case at other dealerships. It was such a pleasant experience buying a car from Roger.

Recently, I had the opportunity to visit the service center of this Mazda dealer to address several issues with my vehicle. Regrettably, the usual service representative who had always assisted me resigned to work at a competing dealership. Consequently, I was assigned a new service representative named Olivia, who left a lot to be desired in terms of her approach to customer service. Olivia came across as impolite and aloof, and I found myself questioning whether she was having a bad day or if she harbored subconscious biases towards certain demographics, irrespective of their socioeconomic status.
