Criswell Honda

We have always had good experiences while shopping for cars at Criswell. Between Chevys and Hondas this is our seventh car. We found the salesmanship and expertise we received from Suvin to be outstanding cars at Criswell. Between Chevys and Hondas this is our seventh car.

He is professional in his approach, and is more knowledgeable than other salespeople, which is saying something because most of your salespeople are pretty good. More

After looking for over 2 months for the right car at the right price, it was a pleasure to be able to work out several critical details over the internet as we had to drive 90 minutes one way from out of st right price, it was a pleasure to be able to work out several critical details over the internet as we had to drive 90 minutes one way from out of state to close the deal. Ken Lamb was extremely courteous and informative, as well as being overly available by coming in on his day off to help us. Between the paperwork and all the processing, it took just 4 hours thanks to the great staff at Criswell. This was the first time in over 35 years of buying cars that I actually enjoyed the buying experience instead of being made to feel like I was at the dentist having a root canal, thanks to Ken, Steve and Sean. And the fresh ground coffee machine in the showroom waiting area was an absolute delight to use while we waited for the staff to do all their good work. Add to the that the deal includes 8 free oil changes in the next 2 years, and Criswell can count on seeing me there again and again to enjoy being served so well. More

My husband and I were in the market for a family friendly vehicle. We'd done our research online and knew what we wanted - A Honda CRV. Criswell had a decent amount of inventory for this product on their l vehicle. We'd done our research online and knew what we wanted - A Honda CRV. Criswell had a decent amount of inventory for this product on their lot which meant we had a lot to choose from for colors, models etc. The dealer showroom was extremely tidy and updated, the people were also well spoken and very helpful. We went in with a budget in mind and Kwamena was able to get us right within that range. We had of course recieved quotes from other dealers and Criswell was able to come in at a lower down payment and monthly payment (by quite a bit). Criswell also offers free oil changes for the first two years that you own the vehicle which none of the other dealers were able to offer. More

My Review of Criswell Honda: BUYER BEWARE ! BUYER BEWARE My Review of Criswell Honda: BUYER BEWARE ! BUYER BEWARE ! BUYER BEWARE ! If you are looking for a used Honda veichle do not even pull in there lot. My Review of Criswell Honda: BUYER BEWARE ! BUYER BEWARE ! BUYER BEWARE ! If you are looking for a used Honda veichle do not even pull in there lot. I believe this dealership works the bait and switch. I I was sold a used 2008 Honda Pilot EXL certified truck that has problems. I should have known when dealing with used car department that it took two weeks or more for the vehicle to be certifed and needed "some" paint work. Go with your gut, if you have reservations at all, walk away. I didn't because these guys will put on one heck of show; making you feel like everything is kosher. Since Ive had the vehicle for about tow weeks, the service engine light is on, the back tires are cupped and worn so unevenly its rediculous, and the interior of the vehicle was never detailed, I pulled some nasty nasty out of there. I heard some rattling around in the back tailgate and soon discovered broken glass pieces falling out of the cracks. The back window was broken at some point. I am really unhappy with the car as I suspect rear end damage or an accident the most likely they fixed and sold before hit the car fax. I have called and called/emailed the dealership used car GM, dealership GM and even Criswell VP to have these problems fixed and have heard nothing back. So I have gone Honda themselves and they are trying to see what they can do for me but suggested I contact the BBB. These people are in the business of buying & selling cars. Im quessing by their lack of responsivness they know something is wrong with this vehicle. The talk a great line about superior customer service but it's all talk, no action. In hindsight, despite the clean Carfax at the time, I had a gut feeling something was wrong with the car, but it was under warranty and that helped ease my anxiety. BIG MISTAKE, listen to your gut feeling and do not trust Carfax completely and do not trust this dealership!! More

I originally went to another dealer to purchase a 2012 accord. Suvin Viswanathan from Criswell Honda in Germantown called along with his manager Walter and offered me 550 less on the vehicle I was intere accord. Suvin Viswanathan from Criswell Honda in Germantown called along with his manager Walter and offered me 550 less on the vehicle I was interested in. I explained that I wanted a 2 door and Walter promised he had the vehicle which would be cleaned up and ready to go when i got there. As I arrived not only did I not see the car but Suvin only had a sedan model and not a coupe. I wasted 3 hours of my time after being promised the deal over the phone and I also told specifically that I wanted a 2 door over the phone. Before I knew that they didnt have the correct model, I felt as if I was sitting in a factory and that I was not given the proper customer service (especially since another dealer who was very friendly and had already given me an excellent deal) and they really didnt care that I drove out of my way to spend 30000 dollars. Suvin was too busy worrying about other customers like it was a race to see how many cars he could sell in an hour. I ended up going to the original dealer who gave me an excellent price and trade in value. The other dealer was alot more personable and took the time to explain everything to me. In the past two weeks I purchased 2 cars from the other dealer (my accord and a pilot for my wife) and will never go to Criswell again. Criswell kept bragging about how many cars they were selling at the time. I really dont care how many cars a dealer can sell but rather the customer service one can provide. I would like to also mention that I have owned and purchased over a dozen Hondas in the past and never have a problem giving repeat business to a dealer who takes the time to treat me as a customer and not a number. Suvin made me feel like a number and didnt care at all for my business. Never judge a book by its cover! More

They promised the price and wouldn't keep their proimse. They just wasted the customer time since they don't care their reputation. Do not contact them anymore. They just wasted the customer time since they don't care their reputation. Do not contact them anymore. More

Phil quoted us a price for a new odyssey. When we got there, the car was there, but the terms changed - he totally baited us in with no intention of honoring the price. We ended up walking out. they want there, the car was there, but the terms changed - he totally baited us in with no intention of honoring the price. We ended up walking out. they wanted to give us $2000 less for a trade - after walking out we drove up the road to the Toyota dealership and got an appraisal for $2000 more. Take your business elsewhere. These guys are crooks. They will waste your time. We wentbto Westminster Honda, got the pricebwe wanted with stellar customer service, no jerking around, etc. We love our new car and are glad we did not give these crooks our business. More

I went in for an oil change and to have a buzzing sound in my engine checked out. When I called and explained the noise to a technician he told me it was probably something minor and they would take a loo in my engine checked out. When I called and explained the noise to a technician he told me it was probably something minor and they would take a look for me. Well I brought my car in and met Stacy, a service manager, who told me they would take a look at the car and it would be $126 that would go toward the cost of fixing whatever the problem was. Naively I agreed since I was told it was something minor based on the symptoms that were given to them. Later I got a call saying they needed to replace an exhaust pipe and it would be $783 to fix. I was floored how can a minor problem end up costing me $783? so I did some investigating online and discovered the issue with my car had been described in a Honda service bulletin. The solution to the issue was to replace a rubber ring that held the exhaust pipe to the chassis. I felt like they were trying to use the initial $126 fee to leverage me into a costly repair that I didn't need. When I showed Stacy a copy of the bulletin she agreed with me that was the problem but still insisted the whole assembly needed to be replaced because in her words "it's one one big piece" even though the service bulletin clearly stated just the rubber piece needed to be replaced. First of all, $126 is way too much to charge to diagnose a problem. I discovered during me search $50-75 is "normal" What they charge me was robbery. When I asked Stacy why it was so much she told me it was to pay for the technician to drive my car and pay for shop supplies. I asked what shop supplies? At that point she started getting agitated and walked me to the cashier. This is the first time I have ever been charged to look at a car problem and I felt cheated and swindled. What they did to me is obviously from my point of view a bait and switch. My advice to anyone thinking of going to Criswell is to find yourself a reputable dealer or better yet a trustworthy mechanic and stay clear of this place. Update: I also did a check the to cost of a replacement exhaust pipe. Stacy quoted me $630 for the pipe and $150 for the labor. When I checked with other dealerships the Retail Price for the pipe was $420 and it's possible to get it for less. More
