Balise Honda

Had an excellent experience with Steve, the salesmen. Asked us what we were interested in. Showed us multiple cars with different options, finally settled on a 2012 civic. Steve was really there to help Asked us what we were interested in. Showed us multiple cars with different options, finally settled on a 2012 civic. Steve was really there to help us, got us everything we asked for, more on the trade in and a we owe to fix some scratches. I truly believe he didn't see us as a pay check and wanted us to have a positive experience. Now my experience in the finance office was not as good a my experience with Steve. Shane was very rude to us when we declined buying some aftermarket warranty "you can't even afford 15 more dollars a month?". He didn't even bother trying to sell us a honda extended warranty which I was interested in. Be careful with Shane. He seemed like he wanted to hold me up by the ankles and shake the quarters out of my pocket. More

Hello and thank you all for taking the time to help me purchase my 2nd S2000 from you at Balise Honda! I would like to thank Larry Bass the General Manager, Miguel Humphrey in Car Sales , Tony in Parts, a purchase my 2nd S2000 from you at Balise Honda! I would like to thank Larry Bass the General Manager, Miguel Humphrey in Car Sales , Tony in Parts, and Terrence the Tech. Since the move from the old building the New Balise Honda has improved. It is like night and day I had a few problems years ago and told myself I would find a new Honda dealer and so came Lia double ouch!! So I met a Tech (Terrence) from Balise Honda and told him about my horror story about Balise many years ago and he assured me that the (new to me) Manager Larry Bass would take care of me. As I was running out of Honda places to purchase my vehicles. I decided to go and talk to Larry, I gave him my name and he told me that they told him my story and he would make sure that it would never happen again I was so suprised that after so many years they would take the time and do right by me! He introduced me to Miguel and believe it or not made up for what the Old Balise did to me. I have purchased not one but two S2000 from them and still am happy a half of year later thank you all. PS if you have had bad service just go in and sit down with Larry and I bet he will do everything in his power to make it right. If this is your first time in and your looking for a car just ask for Miguel , if you need Honda parts stop by and say hello to Tony, going in for Tech ask for Terrence trust me you will not go wrong make sure you tell them Stef and Ben sent you!

My husband and I went to Balise to look at a CRV. We had a very friendly salesperson named John. After deciding to purchase the vehicle we sat down for what seemed like an eternity for the usual back and fo a very friendly salesperson named John. After deciding to purchase the vehicle we sat down for what seemed like an eternity for the usual back and forth nonsense that goes on at a dealership. We finally came to an agreement and then the paperwork started. We got to Shane who was to take care of the finance. We were paying cash so we figured all would go smoothly.We were told we could take the car that day or when it would be convenient for us.After sitting through all of the paperwork and signing Shane said they were calling the office down the road to locate the title. We finally left with a promise from Shane that he would call in an hour or so. Well we waited and there was no call. I called him back the next morning and he said the title wasn't in the office but the people who traded the car in lived close by and he was contacting them. He would call me back. He did return that call later and said unfortunately the people no longer had the title and he was going to do the paperwork to get a new one it would take up to 2 weeks!!!!! I told him to forget the deal. What dealer puts a car on the lot and goes through all of this paperwork with NO TITLE!!. The car had been there for at least 10 days. Shane tried to call a supervisor but he was busy. He would call me back. I called later and spoke to Mike. Mike didn't know our deal so would have to call me back. This was on Friday morning. He called back on Friday night at 8:45. He couldn't reach his manager and he was going to look at the inventory to see if there was another car. He would call back by 10 on Sat. I called back at 10:30 Sat. and told him I wanted my down payment credited immediately. He said they only do that at the corporate office Mon. through Fri. I would have to wait til Mon. and it might show up on my acct. by Weds. I then spoke to another manager named Charlie. He gave me no help and lied to me saying they had already sent for the title when Shane had told me that they were going to have to now fill out paperwork for the title since they didn't have it on file. The entire experience was a nightmare and I am still waiting for a credit. It is amazing how they can quickly take your money but can't refund it in a timely manner. I wasted my entire Thursday off and had nothing but stress and anxiety since that day. Poorly run dealership from start to finish!!!! More

I would never recommend or do business with this facility or any other in the Balise organization. The current rating for this dealership is actually high, a rating of ZERO is appropriate. The reason for my or any other in the Balise organization. The current rating for this dealership is actually high, a rating of ZERO is appropriate. The reason for my poor review coincides with poor service and attitudes specifically from the managers. They all sat at a counter or desk and show Zero professionalism from one end to the other. I was at the dealership during a basketball game and all the "managers" that Derek had to deal with we're sitting in front of TVs in the service area. The reason why this bothered me is because I went to grab a drink from the vending machine and I don't think they realized that customers were around but the language arrogance that Larry and Charles parade around with is appalling. After finally working out a "deal" on a new accord I had to come back for some scratches. Mind you this is a new car!. Derek was not in so I had to wait for 45 minutes for a manager to go outside to look at the car, the receptionist was very pleasant and she must have called the desk at least 4 times and you got the feeling that she was getting the run around that they were about to put me on. Larry and Charles went out with myself to look at the scratches. Larry seemed somewhat concerned but Charles was totally down playing it, "this stuff happens alot" I'm like are you kidding me?!! So they put me in a loaner car that took another 40 mins, they had another salesman find a car for me, filthy inside and out no gas, they did put had in it after 20 more minutes. It took 8 days for my car to get touched up. I was furious at the work they did. I went back and forth with Larry's Voicemail and Charles attitude. That I tried getting in touch with a person with the last name Balise after many emails and Voicemails to Mike Balise I finally had enough. I gave the car with 865 miles on it to my son and went to buy a new car from Curry Honda in Chicopee! All I can say is night and day experience. I will never do business with the Balise company again. PS I own a Livery Service and I've since bought 5 new Accord in 2 Months from Curry with another 6 cars in the next 6 months. More

Two hours for an oil change? Unless you like wasting your days off take your service business elsewhere. Made the appointment a week prior and still sitting here? What's the point of an appointment? days off take your service business elsewhere. Made the appointment a week prior and still sitting here? What's the point of an appointment? More

with a bad experience with curry Honda but the dealers at balise were very good on price and friendliness. I will buy my next car there due to the fact that they were so friendly and even after I bought my c balise were very good on price and friendliness. I will buy my next car there due to the fact that they were so friendly and even after I bought my car they continue to answer all questions and needs!! More

I purchased my Honda Civic in 2003 and have always taken my car to Honda in W Spfld for all my service repairs. In 10 years I've never had a bad experience, ok maybe 1 but they made it right without even as my car to Honda in W Spfld for all my service repairs. In 10 years I've never had a bad experience, ok maybe 1 but they made it right without even asking. I think Chris and his team in the service dept are always friendly and treat everyone with respect. I could take my car elsewhere but I know a good thing and will stick with Balise Honda's service dept. Diane Misiaszek More

I just think that it was not cool that my vehicle needed I just think that it was not cool that my vehicle needed more parts and repairs when he thought I was going to be paying $779.00 for it. Then when I just think that it was not cool that my vehicle needed more parts and repairs when he thought I was going to be paying $779.00 for it. Then when I notified them that I had an a extended warranty, which you think they would have already known seeing how its my delaership I purchased the MV from and have all my service done there. Then maybe they could just do half the work and maybe that would fix the problem. Then the repairs would have to go through Honda Care then it only needed half the work til he could justify the rest by me saying after the work was done that I still had a problem with the car. Of course this means having to inconvience me for another day to get the mv there. More

I ONLY recommend this dealer if you go in there knowing what you are doing! Don't not go in there not knowing much because they WILL sucker you! Rudy was a very good salesman however when it came down to d what you are doing! Don't not go in there not knowing much because they WILL sucker you! Rudy was a very good salesman however when it came down to do "paper work" with SHANE that's when all the lies begun.. He suckered me into buying the Honda Care coverage he told me if I did not buy it there and then that I could not buy it at all which is a lie.. He sold me a plan coverage for $1,500.00 telling me that was the lowest price he can offer me and that there was no way he can work out any deals because then he would be losing out which ended up being another lie..when I came home and did the research the cost of the plan he sold me for $1500.00 is actually $750.00! He DOUBLED the price!! My best advice do not buy any Honda Care coverage throught this dealer unless you've done your research of the real prices first!! More

This was my 3rd car that i purchased and I’m not loyal to any one dealership. I bought my last car at curry, and they are horrible, so i thought I would give Balise Honda a try. I have heard very good things any one dealership. I bought my last car at curry, and they are horrible, so i thought I would give Balise Honda a try. I have heard very good things about Balise from people know. I called and spoke to Miguel. We set up an appointment. When i got there he showed me the car and went over everything about it. We negotiated on the price and my trade, which I still don’t think I got enough for, but who does? The amount was fair so i said ok. I still wasn’t happy about the price of the New car so Miguel went and got the sales manager, and I thought, "Here we go" here come the salesman games. But to my surprise the sales manager was very helpful and very easy going. Both he (Charles) and Miguel made me feel very comfortable and took care of me on the price. I will recommend Balise Honda to all my friends and Family from now on. Ask for Miguel. He's been there 16 years. A real pro. More
