Think they're a 50 state DMV On 10/31/15 drove from Birmingham to Nashville to purchase a new car for cash, a transaction that should have taken an hour. I wasn't aware that the On 10/31/15 drove from Birmingham to Nashville to purchase a new car for cash, a transaction that should have taken an hour. I wasn't aware that the dealership was under the impression that it was the DMV. Three hours of interagation, waiting, more waiting, we left with little or no paper work to register the vehicle, the dealership would handle it. A week later we received additional blank paperwork to be signed, and, returned. NO WAY! Looks like I may have to hire a lawyer to get my car registered. DO NOT DEAL WITH THESE PEOPLE!!! More

Randy. If you're a first time car buyer, you must, must, must come to Darrell Waltrip Honda. I recently moved to the Franklin area from DC where I never had If you're a first time car buyer, you must, must, must come to Darrell Waltrip Honda. I recently moved to the Franklin area from DC where I never had a need to have a car. After popping around a few car dealerships, I finally stumbled on Darrell Waltrip Honda. Right off the bat, Randy knew I had never purchased a car before. This immediately made me uncomfortable and nervous that I was going to be taken advantage of. Complete opposite happened. Randy showed me YouTube videos explaining differences between new and used cars, printed me articles explaining different concepts behind buying a car, and best of all, never once did he pressure me. He even told me to go home and sleep on everything I had just learned before making a decision. Randy went above and beyond to get me the best deal ( I came in with a very set budget) and was so patient, even staying a bit after hours. All those horror stories I had heard about being a female and buying a car are thrown out the window. Randy, you made the unknown, and quite possibly the most stressful, part of my out of "district" move comfortable. I will never go anywhere else. Thank you! I love my new Honda Fit :) More

This dealership has gone downhill My wife and I have bought several cars from DW, were treated fairly in the past, and we decided to trade in her 2004 Accord for a 2015 Fit. The AC on My wife and I have bought several cars from DW, were treated fairly in the past, and we decided to trade in her 2004 Accord for a 2015 Fit. The AC on her Accord stopped working and in this heat we just decided to trade it in. At her last service appt they handed her a signed offer, good for a week of $5,000.00 for her car so we figured they would only offer about $4,000.00 in order to fix the AC. We were offered $2,000.00 after waiting for 45 minutes and when we said, "Thanks for your time, we'll look somewhere else", the Manager came over and said that was a VERY fair price and implied we didn't know what we were talking about. When we referenced the offer from them he said, "That was just the first offer and we would go through the car thoroughly before making a "final" offer. Interesting since the car had been serviced there since the day we bought it. We went back home and verified that the KKB value was $5,300 and went on their website to see the same year Accords with more miles for $8 - 9,000.00. I understand they need to make a profit but it's ridiculous they way we were treated. We like Honda's but are going to a different dealership. The one in Murfreesboro offered $4,000.00 More

Wonderful dealership! During a trip to TN recently, I brought my son's 2014 Honda in for service at DW--the work was completed well and on time as promised. Service Advisor During a trip to TN recently, I brought my son's 2014 Honda in for service at DW--the work was completed well and on time as promised. Service Advisor Angel was excellent--she went over upcoming maintenance needs and was very pleasant to deal with. My son will definitely be bringing his car to DW for all future service needs--this is a top-notch dealership! More

Don't waste money Absolutely do not buy any plans or warranties. There is no where else to go. When you try to cancel, it is very much pro-rated. Total rip off.

Stay away from this dealer!!! Well it all started with taking my accord in for an oil change no big deal right? As I am being wrote up I was told this would take about 2 hours AND Well it all started with taking my accord in for an oil change no big deal right? As I am being wrote up I was told this would take about 2 hours AND I HAD AN APPOINTMENT. so as I laugh thinking the gentleman was joking he then puts paperwork in front of me and tells me I will try to have you out about 1 pm. I then get frustrated and ask what is the hold up he said "sir we're busy". I can understand that but I feel as if he was a bit unprofessional. I then go sit down start doing some work on my laptop. 2 hours then went by and I went and asked for an update and I was told we haven't got it in yet, I'm sure my face was blood red at this point, I sit back down continue working. Finally I am called to check out, I was pointed across the parking lot to where my car was and then asked to speak with Archie who had been taking care of me, my entire family and several of my friends for years me personally for 18 years. He is the man but I was flustered when I was told that he had been let go and was told he was at Nissan of Murfreesboro. Needless to say I am trading my 12 accord for a Nissan and I have several friends that will do the same. I WILL NOT be back to see OL' DW even if it is for tire pressure. On top of the long delay I found that my washer fluid was not topped off and I had oil spots on my garage floor, mike van the supposedly new manager tried arguing with me over the phone about the issue and I felt like I had to beg to get the problem addressed. STAY AWAY PEOPLE AND SAVE YOUR TIME!!!!!! More

Too much oil! What started out as a simple oil change quickly turned into a huge mess at DW Honda. My car was running fine before they touched it. Immediately after What started out as a simple oil change quickly turned into a huge mess at DW Honda. My car was running fine before they touched it. Immediately afterwards, it was running sluggish, accelerating rough, and shifting hard. So I took it right back to them. They drove it and saw the problems, but couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. But they went ahead and told me, "These issues couldn't be caused by an oil change.. it must be something else." Since it was Saturday and they couldn't figure out the issue, they had to keep it until Monday. I am thankful that they gave me a loaner car during that time, even though I had to wait an additional 30 minutes to get the car. Nobody was in a very big hurry to do anything. On Monday, nobody had contacted me by mid-day, so I called them. They had found the problem: They put too much oil in the car. Let me repeat that: THEY PUT TOO MUCH OIL IN THE CAR!! I would expect that level of incompetence from Wal-mart... but not a dealership. It's completely unacceptable. When I came to pick up my car, the boy at the counter didn't seem to care. He just said, "We're bringing it around for you... we got everything taken care of... no worries" (imagine that in a 'I don't care about anything' voice). At this point, they hadn't even offered to refund the oil change. So I demanded to speak to the manager, Mike Van. Mike was actually very nice. For my troubles, he agreed to refund the oil change and give me the next 2 free (which is like offering a free cruise after the ship breaks down.. why would I want to do that again?? But it was a nice gesture.) Several days later... no refund yet. Just filed a dispute with the credit card company. The Good: Mike Van seemed to care that I was satisfied. The Bad: Nobody else care if I was satisfied. The Ugly: They put TOO MUCH OIL in my car. And they had to keep it overnight to figure that out. I'm sure this was just a horrible mistake. I hope they don't do this often. But after my experience, I can't recommend them to anyone. More
