Spend some time here speaking with Rich about a new Jeep Grand Cherokee. He took the time I needed to go over the vehicle's option and was quite knowledgeable about that model and all the other Jeeps availa Grand Cherokee.

I went into this dealership thinking that I would have to buy a used car for financial reasons. Upon entering I fell in live with the limited Jeep Compass. Rich and Jon worked with me on my trade in vehicle buy a used car for financial reasons. Upon entering I fell in live with the limited Jeep Compass. Rich and Jon worked with me on my trade in vehicle and got me into the Jeep Compass. I never imagined getting into a new vehicle that made me feel safe driving in all weather conditions and for my children. Rich was very knowledgable and worked with Jon tirelessly to get me what I really wanted rather than settling for less. Everyone at Executive Jeep was friendly and never had to wait to be greeted. I would highly recommend Rich as a salesman and look forward to working with him in the future. More

I came to Executive looking for a pre-owned Honda Civic with low miles. I was in contact with Nick prior to my visit and told him what I was looking for. He checked his inventory and offered to send me a p with low miles. I was in contact with Nick prior to my visit and told him what I was looking for. He checked his inventory and offered to send me a picture of the car that he thought would fit what I was looking for before I even came in. Nick sent me a number of pictures of both the interior and exterior of the car, and included basic details about mileage etc. Confident that the car was one worth taking a look at, I came down to the dealership. Nick had the car parked right out front waiting for me. We looked the car over inside and out and Nick explained every single feature to me. He really knew a lot about the car which was surprising since this dealership specializes in Dodge and Jeep, not Honda. He was incredibly thorough and did not leave one knob in the car untouched. We took the car for a test drive and I was sold. Nick sat down with me and we ended up agreeing on a great price. Throughout my experience with Nick, I felt very comfortable and never felt pressured. He left his sales pitches at home and seemed to be more concerned with getting me in the right car at the right price. On top of that, I noticed a small chip on the hood of the car, which is common with used cars, and Nick had it fixed up for me on the spot. I highly recommend going to see Nick if you're looking for your next car. Great experience. More
Excellent experience purchasing my used 2009 Jeep. Quality of salesmanship exceeded my expectations.

As daunting and difficult purchasing any new vehicle can be, Nick and his team ensured my experience ran smoothly and quickly. I definitely recommend this dealership to everyone on the market for a new or used car! More
I bought my very first automobile from Executive Honda back in 2000 and was pleased to see that the customer experience continues to be top notch throughout the years. They were very friendly and welcomin back in 2000 and was pleased to see that the customer experience continues to be top notch throughout the years. They were very friendly and welcoming before they even realized I was a repeat customer. Even though I knew exactly what I wanted going in and what I wanted to pay for it, Rich was very thorough walking me through all of the features. I loved the passion and enthusiasm he showed for the car I was buying. After the test drive, Dave & Rich offered me a great price on the car despite it only having 5 miles on the odometer and coming fresh off the truck. Finally, in came Chris with a great financing rate and a warm approach to the financing process. Finance managers in dealerships tend to be the pariah jamming all kinds of extra services and fees. Chris made mention of what was available, but quickly moved on when I was not interested in the additional features. Lastly and most importantly, I was thanked for my business and look forward to going back for my first service. If you are in the market for a Dodge or Jeep, I would highly recommend this dealership. Ask for Rich Dzwonchyk or Dave Archer and you will not be disappointed. More
I am writing to warn everyone about the dishonest and unethical sales practices at Executive Dodge Jeep in Wallingford, Connecticut. I live in Indiana and after looking very seriously for a Hummer H3 unethical sales practices at Executive Dodge Jeep in Wallingford, Connecticut. I live in Indiana and after looking very seriously for a Hummer H3 for over six months, I found one on Executive Dodge Jeep's website that seemed to be just what I wanted. I called to ask about it and the salesman told me it was "pristine." He offered to send me photos from his cell phone. (The dealership had only posted a stock photo on the internet.) He sent me several pictures, all low resolution and taken from a distance. However, on the phone he assured me over and over again that the vehicle was "pristine" and he added that he couldn't find a flaw on it anywhere. This H3 only had 27,135 miles on it, but it was nevertheless a 2007 so I would have expected at least a few minor imperfections. Therefore, I asked the salesman point blank if it had any paint chips from rocks and he said no. I asked him to look along the edges of the doors because that is a common place for dings, and he said there were no dings. I asked about scratches, and he said there were none anywhere. He said that the paint job was perfect, that the vehicle was immaculate and he repeatedly used the word "pristine." He also told me that the vehicle had never been in an accident. The vehicle was priced at about $3000 under the kbb.com value for a 2007 H3 with low mileage in "excellent" condition. I asked why it was priced so low and he told me it had been on their lot for a couple of months at a higher price and it hadn't sold, so the General Manager decided to lower the price and post it online to move it. He also said there were several people who were considering buying it because it was such a "steal" so if I wanted it, I'd better put a $1000 deposit on it right away. Well.... I believed him. Am I stupid? Naive? Maybe. I'm one of those people who is honest to the bone, and I always trust people and think that they're honest too. I should know better by now. I got a loan, bought the vehicle, and had it shipped to Indiana. WHAT A MISTAKE!!! Upon receipt of the vehicle this past Sunday, I noticed immediately that there are tons of paint chips and scratches all over it. Many of the scratches are very long and DEEP -- down to the primer and bare metal. I also noticed right away that the vehicle appears to have been wrecked. The red paint on the grill does not match the red on the rest of the vehicle and the hood doesn't align with the grill but rather sits at least 1/4" below it. I felt sick to my stomach. I knew in an instant that I had been PURPOSELY lied to and ripped off. The driver of the transport truck knew I would be upset. He commented that the vehicle had “a lot of problems” and said that it looked like a contractor had owned it because it was so banged up. He gave me a copy of the Bill of Lading and pointed out that he had marked seventeen major defects above and beyond “minor nicks, dents, and scratches found on any used vehicle”. He showed me where he had put an “s” after several of the defect abbreviations to indicate that there were “multiple” paint chips and scratches in those locations, and he told me he had to track the General Manager of the dealership down in order to get him to sign the document, but he did in fact sign it. I called the salesman and asked him why he told me the vehicle was "pristine" and he said "It IS pristine!" I told him there were more paint chips, dings, and scratches than I could begin to count and that the vehicle appeared to have been wrecked, but he stuck to his story and repeated the word "pristine" several more times. I told him I wanted to have the vehicle shipped back at the dealer's expense and I expected a full refund. It was Sunday so he said he would talk to his General Manager the following day and they would try to resolve the problem. The next day I called the General Manager myself and asked for his help. However, he echoed his salesman’s sentiment with regard to the vehicle, proclaiming “It IS pristine!” and adding that he’d had the vehicle on his showroom floor and everyone who saw it “oohed and aaahed” over it. I told him I did not want to debate the definition of the word "pristine" because it was a matter of opinion, but the fact remained that the salesperson told me the vehicle had absolutely NO paint chips, NO scratches, NO dings, and NO flaws of any kind. After a lengthy discussion, the General Manager offered to have the vehicle "detailed" for me saying that the scratches would "buff out." I told him that I'm no body shop expert but I'm smart enough to know that scratches that are down to the primer or bare metal don't just "buff out" and paint chips don't either. He said that I had purchased a used vehicle, that he wasn't going to take it back unless it had structural damage, and that I had gotten a "bargain" on it – implying that I had nothing to complain about. I replied that it was no “bargain” in light of the fact that the body is in such poor condition and furthermore, the fact that the vehicle is used is not a valid excuse for deliberately concealing the truth about it. I asked him if he would look at photos of the vehicle if I sent him some and he said he would. I sent him 43 close-up photographs showing the scratches, paint chips, and misaligned hood. The photos speak for themselves. He has acknowledged the receipt of the photos but so far, he has not commented on them. I agreed to get estimates for “detailing” (although I did not agree that detailing would resolve the problem). Thus far, I have talked to people at one detail shop and two body shops. All of them have had the same opinion – that “buffing” will only remove surface scratches and that the vehicle needs extensive body work to remove the deep scratches and paint chips which are on every panel of the vehicle. Exactly! They also agreed that the front grill was probably not original because the paint on it doesn’t match the rest of the vehicle, and they noted that the hood is very misaligned – both indicators that the vehicle has probably been in an accident. They explained to me that repairs which are not turned into insurance and not completed at a dealership do not always get reported to CarFax. To make matters worse, both body shops noticed that there are two melon-sized dents on the roof of the vehicle – possibly from a garage door opener closing on it or from hauling 2x4 boards or other similar construction materials. Executive Auto Group’s motto – according to their website -- is “Treat Every Customer Like Our Best Friend” and they refer to their “honest and courteous staff”. When Executive Dodge Jeep knows that a vehicle has numerous deep scratches and paint chips and deliberately lies about it to make a sale, it not only discredits their parent company and tarnishes their reputation, it leaves their customer feeling ripped off and victimized. I may have been incredibly foolish to believe what the Sales staff at Executive Dodge Jeep told me on the phone, but that doesn’t excuse their dishonesty. I am still trying to resolve this problem with the dealership. I believe that they should restore the vehicle to the condition they represented to me as the buyer or honor my right to cancel the deal and recover my losses. However, because I don’t feel like much progress is being made toward a resolution, I have decided to share my story online. If I can save even ONE person from making the same mistake I made in trusting this dealer, then the effort to post my experience on the internet will be well worth it.

My husband and I have been shopping for a truck for approximately one month and were looking for either a used Ford or a used Silverado. This is what led us to the Executive Dodge dealership. They had approximately one month and were looking for either a used Ford or a used Silverado. This is what led us to the Executive Dodge dealership. They had a 2009 Chevy Silverado 1500. When I called I spoke to Steve and explained that I wanted to look at it because it had a crew cab, low miles, but I was most concerned about the towing capacity because we tow a 7100 lb. 29 foot 2010 camper and would like to have maximum towing capacity of at least 8000 lb. When I arrived at the dealership the truck was conveniently parked out front and running since it was a hot 100 degree day. I met Nick who was polite and started to take my information, but since I really wanted to know the towing information, I stopped him because the truck was dependent on this. He quickly went to Ryan, the used car manager, who had Chevy experience and researched it. He explained why this would not be a good choice for me due to the towing limitations. I have to say I was quite disappointed because the truck was beautiful, but I truly appreciate his honesty because he could have sold me this truck and I would have had problems with it because it would not have been able to do what I wanted it to do. Both men were courteous and extremely helpful. They located another truck; a Dodge Ram. We made an appointment to see this truck. Unfortunately it didn't meet our expectations...there was too much body work that needed to be fixed, but Nick said he would keep in contact with us. I would highly recommend this dealership to others. Thank you. More
