Empire Mazda of Huntington

The staff was extremely helpful and courteous. When we made the decision to purchase the vehicle, they were absolutely upfront with all charges associated with the deal and as a result, we felt that we go made the decision to purchase the vehicle, they were absolutely upfront with all charges associated with the deal and as a result, we felt that we got the vehicle that we wanted at a good price and were happy about the purchase. From the initial contact with Mike Grant on the telephone, to meeting John De Candia for a test drive, all involved in the process were great to deal with, this included the Sales Manager Asher and Mike who found a financing rate that was lower than what we already had been pre-approved at and thought couldn't be beat. I would recommend this dealership to anyone. Especially those that have had a bad experience at other dealers. These are good people to deal with. More

Noel was friendly and informative, both on the phone and in person. There were no games and he gave us good price on the car my husband and I were considering. In fact, we were ready to purchase the CX-5 in person. There were no games and he gave us good price on the car my husband and I were considering. In fact, we were ready to purchase the CX-5 when I changed my mind on the color. Noel could have become aggravated here, (really, we were at the point where he was ready to hand me the keys) but instead he said "This is your car. It's a big purchase and you have to be happy with it." Really, I can not say enough about how great he was! I love my new car and I would absolutely recommend Huntington Mazda. More

We had shopped three dealerships for the Mazda 6. Upon entering this dealership, it was by far the most professional experience. Our salesperson, Brittany, knew the product better than any other salesper entering this dealership, it was by far the most professional experience. Our salesperson, Brittany, knew the product better than any other salesperson in the other dealerships. She was thorough, friendly, and a pleasure to deal with. When it was time to pick up the new vehicle, it was quick and smooth from the explanation of the vehicle right through the financial person. More

My husband and I chose Huntington Mazda, as it was the authorized dealer for the Costco Executive Member Automobile Program. We received a friendly greeting by all upon our arrival, and upon meeting our authorized dealer for the Costco Executive Member Automobile Program. We received a friendly greeting by all upon our arrival, and upon meeting our Sales Rep, Lindsey Levin (Internet Sales Manager), we knew we were in good hands! We came to see and test drive the Mazda CX-5. Both on the features level, as well as the inner workings of the engine, Lindsey's knowledge was exemplary! Even after having done much research on our own, Lindsey showed us options that we weren't even aware of. Her professional demeanor and cheery disposition took what is typically an unnerving experience (the purchase and commitment of a new car) and created a positive, warm, and friendly environment. We would recommend Lindsey Levin to all our friends and neighbors in the market to purchase a new car! M. & A. Pepe More

We had oringially gone in to look for a new car for my husband. I was already a Mazda owner and loved my car...however the car was a base model and really had no additional features. The car was great w husband. I was already a Mazda owner and loved my car...however the car was a base model and really had no additional features. The car was great when I got it, but my life has changed since then. Lindsey worked with us and got both my husband and myself in a new vehicle. She was absolutely amazing on both a personal level and a professional level. She made the experience truly unique and memorable. We both love our cars and would definitely go back to Huntington and ask for Lindsey. More

This was far and away the worst experience I have had at any dealership. These people are liars, plain and simple. I went in to look for a lease for a Mazda 6, I had already searched around at other places any dealership. These people are liars, plain and simple. I went in to look for a lease for a Mazda 6, I had already searched around at other places and had an idea as to what I was looking to spend. I spoke with John Chong at first, dealt with him for a little while which didn't start out all that terrible. Aside from frequently using the phrase "a little more better" he was actually a decent salesman. After finding a price we agreed upon, they faxed me paperwork for my credit check and the lease agreement, which was clearly the exact amount that we had agreed upon and no hidden fees or anything. I also received texts from Johns personal number ensuring me that... and I'm directly quoting here... "I'm glad we can earn your business, Thank you and I will speak with you tomorrow". The following day, I asked if there was a way we can expedite the process. I tend bar some nights and had to work a couple of doubles in a row, and I was looking to take care of the car situation as quickly as possible. When I asked how soon I could come in to sign and pick up the car John said (again, direct quotes, Ill save these texts for as long as I can to deter people from shopping at this miserable location) "I understand your concern, I'm still in the process of getting your vehicle, but my fiance manager is off today. What I have to do now is have my inventory department look for a car with the colors you asked. I was able to get you the price you wanted, I don't appreciate you telling me how to do my job."..... That's a real quote. I'm not kidding. I asked, quite simply, how soon I could get it, and that was the response I received. I chalked it up to perhaps a bad day, and since I wanted the car, I ignored it and continued to work with them to get the car as fast as possible. Here's where It really gets interesting.....The next day he says "I have great news, my sales AND finance manager just approved your lease. We should have your car ready for pick up by Saturday". I then arranged for the pick up on Saturday, arrived at the dealer a little late, so understandably I had to wait until they were ready to see me. Which you would figure would be... what... maybe 25 minutes tops? No. I sat in that lobby for an hour and a half just waiting for the finance manager to see me to finalize the paperwork. When I finally got in to see him, he hands me the copy of the lease agreement we had, in addition to some other paperwork, and then advises me that the number that we had agreed upon for the lease is not doable now. Now its going to be $50 more per month because of my credit. They told me this despite the fact that they had told me not 2 days prior that everything was set, and the deal was a go. So now I took a day off from work, to drive 25 miles to Huntington, to be told that the agreement we had, was no longer an agreement? After I sat in the car, set up my phone with the Bluetooth and everything. Now its a different price? These people are nothing short of the worst crew of salespeople I have ever met. If I didn't have to work to make a living, I would gladly spend 8 hours a day in front of this dealership telling people my story so they don't waste their time in this sorry excuse for a dealer. I wouldn't send my worst enemy to this dealer, and I wouldn't recommend you go either. Please don't. They don't care about you or your time and they certainly shouldn't be allowed to stay open with that business attitude. More

I've been buying/leasing cars for 30 years and out of those 30 years, Huntington Mazda is by far the best dealer I have ever been to. Their knowledge was extraordinary. John DeCandia was amazing.

I recently leased a Mazda 3 for my son from Huntington Mazda and I have to say this was by far the easiest and trouble free experience I have ever had in leasing a car. After shopping around and obtaining Mazda and I have to say this was by far the easiest and trouble free experience I have ever had in leasing a car. After shopping around and obtaining pricing from a couple of dealerships, I came across an internet ad for Huntington Mazda on a Saturday morning and began an online discussion with Lindsey Levin. After explaining what I was looking for and what I was willing to pay Lindsey was immediately on the case and confident she could offer me the right deal. The on-line chat was followed up by a couple of phone calls and within an hour or so I had the deal I was looking for. Lindsey was an absolute pleasure to deal with. She was enthusiastic, knowledgable and determined to make sure I was satisfied with the overall customer experience at Huntington Mazda. To prove this point one step further, when I went to pick the car up the following weekend, the plates were not ready and my son was not available to come with me, so Lindsey offered to deliver the plates to my house and go over the features of the car with my son. Not only did she come through on this, but she even offered to do this on one of her days off. This certainly sets a new standard for customer service in my book. Product quality and customer service go hand in hand with winning over customers and setting the stage for repeat business. Lindsey Levin and Huntington Mazda seem to understand this concept exceptionally well. More

As soon as I walked into the Huntington Mazda I was approached by Dave Richardson. While he was very friendly and knowledgeable about the model I was looking for, he was in no way pushy. I gave him th approached by Dave Richardson. While he was very friendly and knowledgeable about the model I was looking for, he was in no way pushy. I gave him the number I was looking for and he tried very hard to stay within my comfort zone. On my first visit, the dealer was unable to get me to the number I was looking for but said they may be able to do better in the next month or so. Within a couple of weeks, they called to tell me that they were confident could make a deal. I met with Dave again and was very happy to see that he had detailed notes regarding our earlier discussions so there was no need for any 'he said,she said'. Throughout my experience, Dave was very kind and professional. I would highly recommend both Dave and the HUntington Mazda dealership! More

I worked with John DeCandia on a new CX-9. The experience was very positive compared to other dealers I have dealt with in the past. John was very helpful in finalizing paperwork to get me in and experience was very positive compared to other dealers I have dealt with in the past.
