Four decades of handshakes on Santa Rosa Avenue
Family-owned, community-minded and still answering the phone ourselves.
Built on satisfied customers
Hiatt Auto Sales specializes in hand-chosen SUVs, trucks and sedans. We hand-pick every vehicle, taking all the time necessary to make sure our customers are satisfied.
One of our many missions is to build long-lasting, friendly relationships with our customers — because a satisfied customer is our number-one priority. That's why so many Sonoma County families have bought their second, third and fourth cars from us, and why they send their kids and neighbors our way.
Today you'll still find the family on the lot, along with Rudy, who has helped countless customers into the right car with the right payment.


Standing up for honest car buyers
In October 1990, owner John Hiatt made the cover of Used Car Dealer, the magazine of the National Independent Automobile Dealers Association (NIADA).
The story: John was leading NIADA's national task force against “curbstoners” — unlicensed sellers who pose as private parties to unload problem cars on unsuspecting buyers. Protecting customers from bad deals wasn't a slogan for him; it was a cause.
That same commitment still guides every car we sell today.
