Integration

Dealer Reviews are provided through Feefo and are free as part of your Auto Trader package. We also partner with most third-party providers, so if you collect reviews using a different platform you can feed them over to Auto Trader so they appear on your profile.

Generating reviews on Auto Trader

Auto Trader offers Dealer Reviews at no additional cost through Feefo, included in Dealer Auto Trader packages. An overwhelming 92% of Auto Trader users believe that reading a dealer review is crucial before making their next vehicle purchase. These reviews serve as a powerful platform for your clients to share their buying experiences, thereby fostering trust with prospective buyers.

 

Responding Matters

It's crucial to express gratitude toward your customers for dedicating the time to provide feedback on your customer service. Ensuring you address every review, whether positive or negative, is vital.

Customers are understanding; they're aware that perfection in every interaction is unattainable for any business. More often than not, they're looking for confirmation that they can anticipate a pleasing experience even when discrepancies arise.

 

Recency matters

95% of Auto Trader visitors prioritise reading a retailer's review if it's been penned within the past year. Consequently, Auto Trader's calculation of your average review rating is exclusively based on the reviews you've amassed over the previous 12 months. It's essential, therefore, to actively manage your reviews and ensure they reflect the latest feedback from your customers. While your older reviews remain accessible for potential buyers to read, they no longer influence your overall rating.

 

Reviewer FAQs

 

How do I leave a dealer review on Auto Trader?

If you've bought a vehicle from the dealer, they may invite you to leave a review.

If they don't, or you've not bought from them, you can find the dealer and leave a review for them.

Not all dealers on our website have the option for reviews, so if you can't find them in the results, this could be why.

  1. Go to our 'find a dealer' webpage
  2. Search for the dealer you want to review in the search bar using their postcode
  3. When you have found the dealer in the search results, go to their page
  4. Go down to the bottom of the page and you'll find the option to 'write a review'.

After submitting your review, this will be sent to our partner Feefo who will review this before publishing.

Can I remove or edit a review I have left for a dealer?

Yes, please contact our review partner, Feefo, who will be able to help.

Their email address is autotradersupport@feefo.com

Why has my review been rejected?

If you've received an email that your dealer review has been rejected, it may have gone against our rules.
If you believe your review hasn't gone against the rules, please email autotradersupport@feefo.com

How long will it take for my dealer review to be published?

Your review will go through checks before being published.

We aim to process all reviews within 48 hours. We'll send you an email confirmation once your review has been published.
