Ryan was very helpf We had searched out the vehicle we were interested in. We had gone to several other dealers and they just would deal on pricing. Ryan was very helpful in getting the exact car we wanted from another dealer in one day, got our trade in amount up to where we could handle the amount, and we got great service. Ryan showed us some of the many features the car had and we were on our way! More

Best Car Buying Experience Ever In the past, we've experienced slow, methodical, pushy salesmen who used all the typical tricks to try and get us to buy their cars. Coggin Honda is In the past, we've experienced slow, methodical, pushy salesmen who used all the typical tricks to try and get us to buy their cars. Coggin Honda is different. At any point, we could have walked away and, while I feel they would have been disappointed, they never really gave us a reason to do so. We've spent countless hours in the past buying a car but Coggin was organized and prepared. The negotiation process and financing process were both really quick. We test drove several cars, found what we wanted, negotiated and financed all in under 3 hours...which probably would have been well under 2 hours if we hadn't spent so much time in the test drives. Our salesperson, Tom, was awesome. But even the other folks in the dealership constantly checked in with us when we were waiting to talk financing to see if we wanted something to drink or just to say 'thanks for stopping in!' Tom listened to my wife and probably spent more time talking with her than all of the other dealers we've worked with in the past - combined. What's more, Tom knew everything there was about each model and when I started pressing him for information on how the different tools worked, he had an answer foe each question. He really knows his stuff. We have dealers much closer than Coggin and, after working with them, were really soured by the lack of service. We had our Acura serviced by one of the local Honda dealers and, after several costly repairs from that dealer, we took the car elsewhere only to find that the issue was not fixed, they weren't even sure it had been worked on and now the problem was actually compounded. While waiting, I went to look at new cars and salespeople were all but non-existent. Would I buy my next car at Coggin Honda? Absolutely - if my next one is to be a Honda, Coggin is the first dealer I will visit. If my next experience is as good as this one, they'll be the ONLY dealer I will visit. More

Don't Drink the Honda Kool Aid I am a big fan of Honda products. I USED TO LIKE HONDA SERVICE. But somewhere along the line Honda fed the corporate Kool Aid to the folks at Coggins I am a big fan of Honda products. I USED TO LIKE HONDA SERVICE. But somewhere along the line Honda fed the corporate Kool Aid to the folks at Coggins and good old friendly customer service took a turn for the worse. At my last service visit I was greeted appropriately enough: I arrived at the prearranged time for an oil change, tire rotation and free multi point vehicle inspection. In Coggin time past my vehicle was serviced and turned around in decent time. Not Now. Now a service advisor comes to sit by your side like a veterinarian about to tell you our dog has to be put down. The advisor has a list of "potential problem" areas. My cabin air filter needed to be replaced, "and for only $49.95 we can replace that filter". The service advisor also recommended: brake fluid service for $98.95; power steering fluid service for $98.95 and fuel induction service for only $96.95. ALL of the above services were unnecessary. Oh, and the cracked rear hatch hatch interior (which is a design flaw) could be relaxed for another $203.74. I declined the services. Reasons: a replacement Honda cabin air filter is less than $25. Installation takes maybe 5 minutes. The other services are each their own cost center. No more we can do this service and, while the car is in the air we can do this and this. Not any more, Honda gets a separate price for each service doubling, I'd not tripling, the service charges. I ordered the genuine Honda replacement rear cargo liner for $120 and installed it myself in about 20 minutes. Are genuine Honda service technicians worth $240 per hour? Then there were the the THANK YOU emails. "Thank you for your visit. If Honda calls please tell them how nice we are". "Thank you. We appreciate your business" And the best email. "Thanks for choosing our service department, I am sorry I didn't have the opportunity to chat with you". Didn't have the opportunity? I sat outside your office for two hours while you were probably distributing emails instead of greeting customers. Then there are the follow up phone calls from Honda. Today there were two wanting to extend my warranty and trade in my Pilot. All calls came from a call center where they were probably directed by the guy sitting in his office who "didn't have the opportunity to .........." Sorry Coggin. Sorry Honda. It used to be a pleasant visit. Now, Coggin's has become a predatory business. I will not be back. More
