Herb Chambers Honda

I went here to buy an used Honda. I always saw commercials about Herb Chambers so I assume this was a respectful place. The environment created by the sales people is very stressful. The sales p commercials about Herb Chambers so I assume this was a respectful place. The environment created by the sales people is very stressful. The sales person who I dealt with was rude and very unprofessional. They will not let you leave and put you in an awkward position. The price of their cars were higher than other dealers but that is expected because it was located in the city. The sales person gave vague responses and laughs off serious questions about cars. BECAREFUL WHEN COMING HERE. Do not fall for their tricks. When trying to negotiate the pricing for a car, it is normal to lower the asking price one or two thousands. My sales person laughed and replied noone sells them at that price. Turns out Clair Honda had the same model for a grand lower. Come here if you are not easily persuaded and a good debater because you will be here for hours not looking for cars but just arguing about the price. Good luck in searching for your car, it is unlikely you will find it here. More

Went to the Herb Chambers Honda of Seekonk recently. We eneded up purchasing a new 2007 Honda Civic EX-4 dr sedan. The sales experience went very well. We dealt with a saleswoman named Tracy. She was extre eneded up purchasing a new 2007 Honda Civic EX-4 dr sedan. The sales experience went very well. We dealt with a saleswoman named Tracy. She was extremely helpful, nice and not pressuring at all. Sometimes it would take her a while to return phone calls, but if she said she was calling that day, we usually got a call. Everything went fine UNTIL the Finance manager got involved. He was not mean or rude, but he was just "greasy". He gave us a really horrible APR (8.74%!) on a car loan even though we had very good (Tier 2) credit. When we said we were definitely not paying 8.74% interest... all of a sudden the rate magically came down to 7.74%, but he would "have to make a phone call".... Yeah right... To who?? To the freaking Federal Reserve Chairman?.. We saw right thru that and just felt like this guy should be plain with us and stop trying to wring every last dollar out of us (I know its a car dealership and thats how they make their money but its SO frustrating). We were both aware he makes money off of giving a higher interest rate, but honestly in this day and age, this form of sale will (hopefully) go extinct in favor of realistic customer-oriented sales. ALSO.... Dont bother trading ANYTHING IN!! Like someone else on this mentioned, we were offered 1/6th of the value of the Kelley Blue Book for our fully functioning good condition vehicle. The Used Car Manager (Joe Vona) explained why, but we were still aware we were getting screwed regardless... This dealership (aside from awesome sales girl, Tracy) is not recommended More

Review: When I purchased the car i was happy about the Review: When I purchased the car i was happy about the car that i was getting and had a relatively helpful sales person who told me about all of the Review: When I purchased the car i was happy about the car that i was getting and had a relatively helpful sales person who told me about all of the quality checks that are performed on their cars before they go out the door because they stand by their cars 100 percent. Other than that i had to wait for an extraordinary amount of time even though i came in with a car chosen ready to buy check in hand. I had to wait for the used car manager when he was to tell me the value of my trade which he offered about 1/6 of what the max retail value on kbb.com was and less than a 1/2 of what the trade in value for a car in moderate or worse condition was. I then had a number of issues with the car some of which are things that should have been fixed during their "thorough" inspections. When I spoke with the used car manager he was rude and no help! I would not go back to this dealership ever again. They are not helping me out even though within 6 months i will be spending over 1500 on repairs a number of which should have been done to the car before i drove it off the lot. They are not about the satisfaction of the customer but rather about profit and getting things their way. I did not feel like a valued customer. I felt as though they viewed me as someone to make money off of and not someone who they are doing a service for. On the other hand... the Burlington Herb Chambers honda has been excelent every time that i have gone there! More

I got a great price for a new car, but the didn't keep the promised delivery date. They kept stringing me along, promising the car would arrive in the "next two weeks". Overall I waited two months! the promised delivery date. They kept stringing me along, promising the car would arrive in the "next two weeks". Overall I waited two months! More

So many problems with this dealer... Sales team does not return phone calls promptly... Delivered car without taking care off items that they promised. Had to take the car back for completetion of sale agr return phone calls promptly... Delivered car without taking care off items that they promised. Had to take the car back for completetion of sale agreement tasks and they kept my car for a week and half claiming they could not find a part. In reality what is was was and inhouse battle as to who was going to pay for it. Finally get the call to pixk up my car and still a few items that needed to be done where not complete... Awful place to do business with. I recommend anyone to stay away from Herb Chambers dealers... High Pressure and they dont come through. More

I went to the Herbs Chambers Honda Dealer in Seekonk. I went to the Herbs Chambers Honda Dealer in Seekonk.

They were very attentive and friendly with me while negotiating and financing the car, however their afterservice was horrible. The Business manager I dealt with was very unprofessional, telling me that I have nothing to worry about, that he'll call me first thing in the morning, etc. I couldn't get in contact with him all day after calling 10 times and leaving two messages. After several hours later, I finally got in contact and was told he'd call me after 10 minutes, obviously he didn't call me back. I had to file a complaint with the manager and talk to him to get what I needed. The service while purchasing the car is top notch, however the afterservice for this dealership is very unprofessional. If I knew about how I would be treated after buying a car from them, I would not use this dealership ever again. More

I called first thing in the morning to ask if they had what I wanted in stock. I was looking for a used automatic transmission Civic Sedan EX in black, silver or blue. The guy called me back about 30 minu what I wanted in stock. I was looking for a used automatic transmission Civic Sedan EX in black, silver or blue. The guy called me back about 30 minutes later and said they had a few. I went up there 5 hours later. My first impression of the place was that it was so small! By their website, advertisments of being the BIGGEST Honda Dealership in New Englad.. Wow. There are 3 Honda Dealerships in RI much bigger than that place. They were stuffed between Herb Saturn and another make on the other side. The place was tiny! As I pulled in, I noticed Tom the salesman hanging out in front of the door smoking a cigerette. Eww. I drove past him ignoring him while I went to go circle the tiny parking lot looking for the used lot. There was only about 4 in the front so I went to go check in back. Nope, those were all new. The tiny parking lot was making me dizzy and Tom went through all the trouble of crossing the street to make sure he was on the driver's side so he could attempt to sell me a car. I open the window and he drops his ciggerte, blows out a huge nasty cloud of smoke and asks if he could help me. I told him I called and talked to Mike and he said there was an automatic EX but I didn't see it. Tom takes a look around the parking lot and said he knows his inventory and there was one. He didn't see it so he then does this weird head tilt and eye thing and says "I see you in an Accord!" I replied with "What are you psychic?". He laughed it off and was about to tell me how awesome an Accord was. The Accord is the best car Honda makes and something about it's cylenders. I cut him off and told him I knew what I wanted and that was the Civic. He then argues with me that I haven't even looked at it and suggested test driving. I said again that I knew what I wanted, I've done my research and this isn't the first time I've been to a Honda Dealership. He gave up and then says he's going to go inside to ask if anyone knew where the car was because it could be being serviced or on a testdrive. He goes in and gets a print out from their website with a Honda LX on it. I told him again that I wanted the EX, he tells me that the only difference is the Moonroof and I don't need one in the winter anyway. Wow. Just wow. Then he spent about 15 minutes trying to find it!! Nobody knew where that car was! They just knew that it wasn't sold!!! LOL. He even checked out the Saturn parking lot to see if it got misplaced. LOL. "Mike" couldn't be found either, he was paged twice but seemed to had drop off the face of the earth. I seriously couldn't believe any of this was happening. It was hilarious and annoying at the same time. Just unbelievable. Yes, I don't need a moonroof and I look good in an Accord because that's the only freaking used cars they had! Tom was polite and friendly otherwise. Just dumb. He just needs to lose the ciggs and lose the lame sales pitch lines. "I see you in.." HAHA. No way will I ever be back to that dealership and I will tell others to stay away from it. All that trouble to find a car, I can't imagine the horrors of actually buying a car from them. Interesting note: This happened last week and the mysteriously disapearing LX is still listed on their website. They dropped the price down too, probably because of the high mileage. More

I bought my 2003 Accord EX V6 new from this dealership and had a good experience. I never went back there for service or complaints - I would probably be speaking differently now if I had - but at least t and had a good experience. I never went back there for service or complaints - I would probably be speaking differently now if I had - but at least the purchasing process went well. I saw the car on their web site at 3pm on a Friday and was driving it home at 7pm the same day. The price was competitive and I did not have to go through the 'let me ask my manager if I can go that low' xx. After almost 2 years and 30000 miles on it, we have not had even the most minor issue with the car (let me knock on wood here). More

wanted 2002 acura rsx, they DID give me free spoiler, but my complaint is they would say they would call me back for stuff and they didn't, i had to keep callind them. plus after i paid cash for the car, i s my complaint is they would say they would call me back for stuff and they didn't, i had to keep callind them. plus after i paid cash for the car, i saw on internet they were asking $333 less than they quoted me on phone, and had to issue me a check. They did not go over the car properly, or they would've removed some paper and junk from glovebox from previous owner, and told me to get it registered befor they brought it to me, not realizing i had to have to title first. Dealer seemed rude at times, and NOT like the dealers i dealt with previously, who bend over backwards to please the buyer, it's too bad they had the color I wanted, or i definetly would've told them to stick it!
