Acura of Valley Stream

I would highly recommend this dealer. Steve was a pleasure to deal with. Honest pricing. Everything that was promised at time of sale was honored. This is my second Acura and I will def recommend thi pleasure to deal with. Honest pricing. Everything that was promised at time of sale was honored. This is my second Acura and I will def recommend this dealer to my family and friends. At time of delivery Steve went over the entire car, and spent a decent amount of time with me, going over all of the accessories More

Buying my Acura from STEVE VERGA was an AMAZING experience. His professionalism is balanced by his friendliness and grace. The Service department however has continued to make my life considerabl experience. His professionalism is balanced by his friendliness and grace. The Service department however has continued to make my life considerably difficult since the beginning. A) They up-sell EVERYTHING. It has gotten to the point of a running joke between me and my friends who go there secondary to the warranty coverage. We have had our cars checked out for specific issues prior to arriving at the Valley Stream service department only to have Acura add on a half-dozen "needed" services each time. I'm sure this commonplace for all dealerships...but that doesn't make it any less frustrating. B) They incorrectly installed the rack and pinion (under warranty) which ruined my steering and handling. Granted, i didn't bring it back them when i started having steering issues as i don't trust them...so i am partially at fault for dragging the issue on. C) After correcting issue 'B'.....without admitting fault of course....they incorrectly performed a wheel alignment which was blatantly off by their own computer's specs. When i questioned it, Ivan gave me a bogus answer that was ridiculous enough to get two unrelated customers laughing simultaneously. I insisted that the alignment be perfected...and it was...after arguing with them. What was "impossible" became possible with a little focus and diligence. D) After correcting 'C', they addressed my Navigation issues which were straightforward: it worked fine once it initiated, but there was a delay in booting up. I asked them to "CHECK IT OUT." I did not consent to a repair. I was not informed of the risks/benefits/alternatives to the request. After they evaluated it, the entire Navigation system is now non-functional...along with my clock and audio controls. Had i known that they were going to assassinate the entire system....or had i known that there was a risk of such...i would have simply dealt with the delay. I believe they intentionally sabotaged the system assuming my after-market warranty program would replace it....they did not. After the fact, they want $4,500 to replace the system.....a system that was functional when i brought it to them. I hope i can get some justice within the legal system over the next few months....because unfortunately ethics alone is not enough to drive this Service department. J.C More

This dealer provided the best seamless purchase I have had in many years of car purchases. Good price and fair trade in value. No nonsense, quick honest responses. The purchase transaction took ten min had in many years of car purchases. Good price and fair trade in value. No nonsense, quick honest responses. The purchase transaction took ten minutes including the obligatory visit to the business office. Steve took a lot of time on delivery to explain many details of the vehicle I purchased. I would definitely recommend Acura of Valley Stream. More

Steve Verga is extremely rude and unprofessional. The people at this dealership are very deceptive, definitely not to be trusted. They give you a quote and then change the price and details in the contr people at this dealership are very deceptive, definitely not to be trusted. They give you a quote and then change the price and details in the contract at delivery. In one instance when I pointed out that they had overcharged me, Steve denied it and gave me a bogus explanation for the charge. After I went home and reviewed the paperwork, I realized that his excuse did not make sense and called him on it. He told me he had to speak to the Finance guy and then I got a check in the mail without a follow up call or apology from anyone...guess they were upset that I caught them. This is just one of the nightmares I had to deal with at this dealership, it would take forever to go through my entire story of schemes that Steve and his team ran on me. I definitely wouldn't recommend this dealer, they are big time scam artists!!! More

And they say that buying a car is a headache! Not through this courteous dealership headed by their sales manager, Steve Verga. The entire process was painless and problem free. From inception through the ac this courteous dealership headed by their sales manager, Steve Verga. The entire process was painless and problem free. From inception through the actual pick up of the vehicle, Steve was a true professional. Hats off to him and the dealership from pricing to the time spent going over the details of using the technology within the car. A clear cut above the rest! More

I have purchased 4 Acura’s from Steve Verga he was a salesman at the old facility on Merrick. (I convinced my fiancé to trade his Mercedes and go for an Acura!) My salesman has always been Steve since 1 salesman at the old facility on Merrick. (I convinced my fiancé to trade his Mercedes and go for an Acura!) My salesman has always been Steve since 1998. I have always trusted his word. People tell me I shouldn't be so trusting so I decided to go to Rally to see if what they said was much different from Steve. They initially gave me a price higher than Steve for the RDX and the trade-in lower than Steve's. When I was ready to leave the Manager came over and gave me a figure $300 less that Steve's quote if I bought it there. I never mentioned Steve or going to VS Acura. However by my address they knew I lived in VS and made some really horrible comments about VS Acura. The salesman went as far as to say they probably wouldn't make it. Meaning the dealership would go bankrupt. He made references about VS not caring about their customers and that is why their facility looks like crap. Their negative comments and verbal attacks made me step back. My fiancé was very turned off by their comments. I walked out and called Steve. He NEVER said one bad thing about Rally. He matched their price and I bought my car from Steve. I have never met a better salesman than Steve. The other salespersons there are nice but lack Steve's finesse and etiquette. They make comments that I feel are inappropriate at times. The purpose of this letter is to tell you about how valuable I think Steve is to your dealership and how Rally could learn a thing or 2 from VS. You don't need to speak bad about another dealer you both sell Acura. Your VS facility is really bad and you should consider moving or renovating. The facility has heating issues, AC issues, and the place looks run down. I hope VS Acura is around for a long time because I can’t imagine getting a car from anyone else. More
