Great service, easy buying process

Neil C. Palm Beach Gardens, FL June 20, 2015

"I was in the market for a used car and was referred to Frank by a family member. I traded in my work van for a used sedan. The car was in great condition and the price was right. Frank provided great customer service and made the whole process very easy and efficient. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family in need of a vehicle."

Referred by a friend

Civic minded Manasquan, NJ March 15, 2017

I needed to buy a good used car so asked a friend of mine who is very particular for a recommendation in the area. He gave me only one Frank Krause in Point Pleasant Beach.

I checked out his web site which was easy to navigate and found several cars that were in my budget. I then followed up with a phone call to set up the appt. Frank is very straightforward but also a big help and gave the pros and cons on each of my selections. He didn't try to up sell me so we made an appt to meet on that Saturday. I got there at the agreed time and Frank had the cars I was interested in up front and we reviewed and I ended up just taking one for a drive and buying that one. We picked it up that Monday after he had a chance to detail the car and give it a final check out.

It was the most pleasant car purchase I have ever made. No bait and switch just good dependable cars sold by someone who is honest and takes great pride in his business.

Frank sold my Honda!

I was looking to sell my Honda Accord and Frank was able to sell it in one week for more than I had anticipated! Great service, knowledgeable and professional. I will recommend Frank to my friends and associates

Great experience

Tom C. Monroe Twp., NJ July 21, 2018

I was looking for a used Toyota Solara convertible with under 100,000 miles in the tri-state area and after much online searching found a white 2007 Solara with a black top (my first color choice combination) at Frank Krause Automotive. When I first spoke to Frank on the phone I thought he was a little gruff, but I later learned that the more you get to know Frank the more you like him and appreciate his knowledge of automobiles and willingness to go the extra mile for you. Frank is a no nonsense, no billsh*t, tell it like it is kind of guy (I like that). When I went down to see the car Frank spent a lot of time going over the car with me. We took the car for a test drive and then over to a garage Frank recommended to have them look it over. There were no problems. I trusted Frank's choice and later had them do an alignment for me. Frank also recommended someone for me to put new tires on the car at a good price. Frank detailed my car before I picked it up from him and
I will continue to have him detail it in the future. I couldn't be happier with my car and would buy another from him in the future. I highly recommend him.

HONEST & STRAIGHT-UP AWSOME!!!!!

Proud Daughter of Vietnam Vet, Joy lafollette, Tn December 1, 2014

"after researching for weeks for my army veteran father, I found the perfect vehicle. Everything he wanted, low miles, 4x4, lower than his $$ range. Only problem was 721 miles away. I am in Tennessee & my dad's perfect 2005 Jeep Liberty Sport is in Point Pleasant Beach, NJ . So, I made a simple phone call. Sir Frank was wonderful. found a transport service for me. even offered to take to local Jeep Dealer to evaluate for me. I just can't put into words how re-assuring & thorough/thoughtful/helpful Frank was. He made a frustrating situation simple. I went off gut instinct & I have to say...... Frank is hands down..... AWSOME!!! I realize I am rambling but with the world being crooked/dishonest these days. I have to give credit where credit is deserved. Thank You Sir Frank. You are a treasure!"

You’re Safe with Frank!

"Frank is practically my neighbor, but I didn't meet him until my need for a car brought me across the street to his Spring Lake location. I was in the market for a new work vehicle for my cleaning business, and have always seen great-shape Honda's, Toyotas and Jeeps on his lot there. That day I spotted a Honda CR-V I was interested in, so I quickly gave him a call. I discussed my situation (budget, needs, etc.) with him and met him over at his Point Pleasant location to look at a better-equipped 2005 CR-V that he suggested. The car was very clean, roomy, and just what I was looking for - but I wasn't totally sold on the price. After driving the car and inspecting it further, I mentioned some concerns to Frank and he said he would take it to our local mechanic to have everything checked out and would fix anything that was wrong with it. And he did! I gave him a deposit and he had several things on the car spruced up and replaced, and even did all of detailing work himself - ma
king the car price well worth it. The CR-V looked and drove like it was brand new! Working with Frank was wonderful! He's super responsive and communicative, and he doesn't play games. He's a straight shooter for real. Let's face it - single women are the stereotypical suckers when it comes to buying a car. Listen ladies - you can feel safe with Frank. He doesn't sugar coat anything and doesn't try to sweet talk you into buying his cars, or over charge you. He takes great pride in the cars he sells. Not only does he deliver on his cars and service, but he delivers on his word. As a matter of fact, he just called me yesterday to make sure all was well with my car and that I was happy with it - and I bought it three months ago. That's what sets him apart!"

Ron Brick, NJ February 9, 2017

Frank was straight forward, knowledgeable and honest. He took the time to go over the vehicle I was interested in's history, as well as the manufacturer's history pertaining to the vehicle. I pointed out a potential problem and he immediately corrected it. The vehicle is as represented. I would definitely do business with Frank again.

Used Car Buying Experience-Frank Krause Automotive

LK Manasquan, NJ June 14, 2018

I was in the market for 1 Jeep Grand Cherokee for my son and ended up with 2; son & daughter. Frank knows these cars (and others) inside & out and only keeps inventory on product that is reliable, in great condition and fairly priced. Frank takes great pride in professional follow up, listening to the customers' needs and willing to go the extra mile to make small repairs so I could drive off the lot feeling confident in the safety of my kids. I was also incredibly impressed how immaculate he keeps his lot/garage/office; again- very professional. I have already recommended Frank Krause Automotive to a friend and will continue to do so!

Great cars and service

Peg Marlboro, NJ April 8, 2016

I bought a car from Frank Krause for my daughter and it has been great. He has a lot of Toyotas, Hondas and Jeeps for sale. The cars are well maintained and priced reasonably. He was available when we wanted to see and test drive the cars and was quick to get the car detailed and turned over to us. All his documentation was also very complete. We will definitely use his services again in the future.
