Honda of Staten Island

Agreed on one price. When I went in to pick up car all the prices changed. I went from 249 to 299 a month. Taxes were supposed to be included. They padded it on my credit card. Went back immediately to the prices changed. I went from 249 to 299 a month. Taxes were supposed to be included. They padded it on my credit card. Went back immediately to speak to them and they could not be found for five days. When I finally caught up with them, they dismissed me saying too bad I signed the contract. I feel I was taken advantage of.....The reason I signed the paper was that they kept me waiting about three hours and I just wanted to get out of there. I did not think I was dealing with thieves. Shame on them. More

I live in Staten Island, but had never purchased a vehicle in Staten Island. My husband thought it would be a community-conscious choice to buy in Staten Island. It was the second lot I went to for th vehicle in Staten Island. My husband thought it would be a community-conscious choice to buy in Staten Island. It was the second lot I went to for the day, I saw a car I liked (after lots of on-line shopping), and the initial sales person seemed genuine and nice enough that I took it for a test drive. His manager and I settled on a price to include the extended warranty (it's not "certified" or covered without it), and I was pleased with the deal. I was leary when the manager had cold, sweaty palms (Eww!), but I had done my research. It was all down hill once they realized that I had reserved my own financing and would not be using theirs. I'm a nurse and my husband a police officer. They told us they didn't think the bank check was good, and we would have to wait for it to clear (despite speaking to the bank whom guaranteed funds within 24hrs of deposit). At one point over the next week (it took them over 2 days to deposit it)they even tried to break the agreement, which I would not do as I new the price was low for what I got. We were treated like common criminals instead of upstanding citizens and customers. Reliable car hopefully, but the next one will be sought elsewhere. More

I took my car to this Honda dealer because I was recommended by a good friend of mine. I dont think he's my friend anymore, this was the worst service I have recieved in a long time. I dropped my recommended by a good friend of mine. I dont think he's my friend anymore, this was the worst service I have recieved in a long time. I dropped my car off for a problem I was having with my engine, the dealer had installed a waterpump & timing belt. After that repair the car started making a funny humming sound, I returned to the dealer two weeks later and when the vehicle was looked at the service advisor Dave stated that the vehicle had no problem and gave me a list of other things he insisted were wrong with my car. He recommended flushing every fluid in my vehicle, at this time I asked to speak with a manager, that's when Rick came he advised me that if I didn't do these flushes then the warranty on the waterpump and timing belt would be voided for lack of maintaince. I asked if the original humming problem was found he answered no but he'll continue to look while performing the flushes. I then got upset and asked to get my vehicle. I took the vehicke to another Honda dealer (Bay Ridge) which informed me that whoever performed the last repair cracked a plastic that was rubbing on the belt and created this humming noise. Bay Ridge agreed to repair it for free in exchange for my business, so thank you Bay Ridge and for all the people that still visit this service center be careful, they will take your money then act like they dont know you.

When I asked him what the interio internet. Asked if still had on lot. He responded by saying "Yes as of fact, it is right in front of dealership". When I asked him what the interior color was, he didn't know but would go take a look. He put me on hold for a few minutes and then told me it was beige. Since this was for my grandson, I called his mother (my daughter) to tell her to go see car. She called Renzo (1/2 HOUR LATER) and he tells her NO LONGER HAVE ON LOT. FIRST not only tells me on lot BUT states will look and see what interior color is. THEN HALF HOUR LATER no longer on lot. RENZO get your story straight. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME. I should have checked reviews. Just put si honda reviews in google and see what I mean. Do not bother with this dealership ESPECIALLY RENZO OF USED CARS. More

To all of you who had a positive experience at this dealership: You have one thing in common, you are buying a NEW car. They were very nice and polite and courteous to me as well when I first went in dealership: You have one thing in common, you are buying a NEW car. They were very nice and polite and courteous to me as well when I first went in there three years ago. They have to be to get your business!!! Wait until you have to get your car serviced though or if you leased your car, wait until your lease is up. Read down a few stories and see my experience. These people are big time crooks! This story is about our SECOND negative experience at this dealership. My father went in there and purchased an extended warranty on his vehicle. They were quick to cash his check, but not so quick to send the paperwork in. He went for service a few months later, and lo and behold. Honda had no record of any service contract. We called the sales manager who sold us the warranty. He never returned our calls and everytime we called back, conveniently he was in a meeting. After 4 to 5 days of being given the runaround we went to the dealership in person. We waited for THREE hours. My father walked into the sales manager's office, and the man's response was "Make it quick, I don't have time." Courtesy and professionalism? On what planet? We ended up getting the issue resolved outside of the dealership. More

From the time I first walked in the door to purchase an accord, I was treated very nicely by the salesman Johnny Guillett, jr. I was not pressured nor did I feel I was being tricked into something. He was accord, I was treated very nicely by the salesman Johnny Guillett, jr. I was not pressured nor did I feel I was being tricked into something. He was very informative with a great sense of humor. I felt at ease and the whole process of buying my vehicle was quite relaxed. I did buy an Accord EX-L which I felt I got a great price and a great car in all aspects. I definitely would recommend the dealership and my salesman. It was a refreshing and a welcome change to deal with a salesman of such caliber. Thank you Staten Island Honda, and thank you Johnny for making it fun to purchase a car. Sincerely, Roy More

I recently purchased a new 2008 Accord through Staten Island Honda. Due to the great help provided at the dealership, I felt it was right to write a review on how I was handled. The salesman who had help Island Honda. Due to the great help provided at the dealership, I felt it was right to write a review on how I was handled. The salesman who had helped me (Mr. George Engel) was very informative and explained several features about the car as it related to safety, economy and performance. He let me know consumers reports had chosen the Accord as it's number 1 pick. This information helped me decide to ultimately buy the vehicle. I really appreciated the assistance of (Mr Engel) and also the assistance of the finance manger, Simon. Simon explained my options for financing the car. I ultimately picked one that I was happy with. I found the process of buying my car at Staten Island Honda extremely easy and as such I have already recommended the dealership to a few friends and family members.
