Northeast Ohio Car Dealers Directory
The NOADA Northeast Ohio car dealers directory is a searchable listing of the franchised new-car and -truck dealerships that belong to the Northeast Ohio Automobile Dealers Association. Whether you are a shopper looking for a trusted local dealership by make or community, or a member dealer who wants an accurate listing in front of the buying public, this directory is built for you. Every dealership listed is a NOADA member - franchised, local, and committed to the association’s Code of Ethics.
Looking for a specific brand or town? Use the directory below to find a dealer near you. Dealers: keep your listing current through the member portal.
Find a dealer near you
The directory lets shoppers find NOADA member dealerships across Northeast Ohio and Summit County. You can browse by:
- Make / brand - find the franchised dealer for the vehicle you want
- Community - Akron, Cuyahoga Falls, Barberton, Tallmadge, Stow, Green, Norton, and surrounding areas
- Dealership name - go straight to a store you already know
The directory is updated as member dealerships are added. If you do not see a store you are looking for, call NOADA at (330) 272-9011.
This directory is also accessible from the consumer side at Find a Dealer, part of NOADA’s public resources for Northeast Ohio drivers.
Why buy from a NOADA member dealer
Not every dealership is the same, and the badge on the door matters. NOADA member dealers are franchised new-car and -truck dealers - manufacturer-authorized stores, not independent or curbstone operations. Buying from a member dealer gives you real, practical advantages:
- A franchise relationship. Member dealers are authorized by the manufacturer to sell and service their brands, with factory-trained technicians, genuine parts, and warranty support.
- A code of ethics. NOADA members pledge to treat every customer fairly, openly, and honestly; represent products clearly and factually; stand behind their warranties; and resolve concerns promptly. See the full Code of Ethics.
- Local accountability. These are stores rooted in Northeast Ohio - businesses your neighbors work at, that sponsor local teams, and that answer to the community they serve.
- A stake in the region. Through NOADA, member dealers support local advocacy, workforce development, and community giving across Summit County and beyond. See the NOADA Foundation.
The economic weight behind the directory
Franchised dealers are one of Northeast Ohio’s most significant local industries. They employ thousands of technicians, salespeople, and office staff at family-supporting wages; generate substantial state and local tax revenue; and reinvest in the communities where they operate. The stores in this directory are not faceless retailers - they are a major engine of the regional economy, supporting a significant share of the region’s jobs and tax base.

After you buy: registering your vehicle
Buying the car is one step; getting it titled and on the road is the next. NOADA can help with both - because we also operate the Akron BMV (Ohio Deputy Registrar Agency 7731).
A quick, important note on how Ohio works:
- Titles are issued by the County Clerk of Courts title office - not the BMV. If you bought from a dealer, the dealership typically handles the title paperwork for you.
- Registration and license plates are handled by BMV deputy registrars like the Akron BMV. That is where you get your plates and registration after the title is in hand.
If you need to register a vehicle, see Title transfer & registration and What to bring to the BMV. Buying from out of state? See Out-of-state title transfer.
For member dealers: your listing
Your directory listing is a free, ongoing benefit of NOADA membership - and a small SEO and referral asset. It puts your store in front of shoppers actively looking for a local franchised dealer, and it carries the credibility of NOADA membership and the Code of Ethics.
To get the most from it:
- Keep your details current. Name, address, phone, website, and the makes you carry should always be accurate. Update them in the member portal or call (330) 272-9011.
- List all your rooftops. Multi-store groups should make sure every location appears.
- Add the makes you represent. Shoppers often search by brand - make sure yours are tagged correctly.
To update your listing, sign in to the member portal or call NOADA at (330) 272-9011.
An accurate listing is the difference between a shopper finding you and finding a competitor. It takes two minutes to keep current.
