I just leased a 2013 Honda Civic for my high school daughter. I picked it up in the evening of 1/2/14. The very next morning we went out to start it and the doors would not unlock. After numerous tr daughter. I picked it up in the evening of 1/2/14. The very next morning we went out to start it and the doors would not unlock. After numerous tries with all three keys we were able to open the front passenger door and start the car. After a few minutes we tried to get in to move the car so we could shovel our driveway. The doors auto locked because the driver's side was never unlocked. The car ran for close to an hour before I was able to open the doors, with the exception of the driver's door. I called the dealership and explained the situation and they told me to call roadside assistance. I stated that I had not even had the car for 12 hours yet. They said there was nothing that they could do because they did not own it anymore. Too make a long story short, the new car has been back to the dealership a total of three times, to include twice today (1/7/14). It is there now and we have a loaner with a half a tank of gas which my husband was told to make sure it is filled to the same level as when it was received, never mind my tank was full before the three trips to their dealership for an issue that should have been fixed if they did a proper pre-delivery inspection (PDI). I have had to miss work twice and my daughter was left stranded on 1/7/14 in the bitter cold and in a dark parking lot...not safe at all. UPDATE: I feel after going back and forth a couple of times with Mr. Ide and seeing that he really cares about his business, and how customers are treated, I would recommend this dealership for anyone looking for a Honda. I guess what happened to us was not the norm. I appreciate the way Mr. Ide went above and beyond to make right what happened. He filled our gas tank, washed the car and even offered to pay the first payment, which I graciously declined. Overall my experience could have been a lot better but in the end it was all good. More
SERVICE WITH A SMILE AND THE EXTRA MILE! Scheduled my SERVICE WITH A SMILE AND THE EXTRA MILE! Scheduled my new car to have body side door molding installed. It was mistakenly arranged for a time, that SERVICE WITH A SMILE AND THE EXTRA MILE! Scheduled my new car to have body side door molding installed. It was mistakenly arranged for a time, that upon arrival, I learned is not typically scheduled. Instead of making me return...I live almost an hour away, Billy Thompson voluntarily stayed past his shift and installed the moldings. He did it with a smile and Linda treated me like a queen. I even explained, that it was ok and I'd return, that it wasn't a big deal. However, Linda said, "We treat you like family here at Dick Ide" and I truly felt like it. Thank you Billy and Linda. I really appreciate you going the extra mile for me so I didn't have to travel so many. More

I have an '04 Odyssey and a '99 Subaru Outback, neither bought from Dick Ide. I have been coming to them for 6 years and have only had excellent service every time for both cars. They change my oil for f bought from Dick Ide. I have been coming to them for 6 years and have only had excellent service every time for both cars. They change my oil for free on the Honda, and always check the fluids, pressures and consumable parts for wear, and give me a full report when they're done. They are fast and on time, and always polite and friendly. I've had inspections done there and they've never "nickle & dimed" me to pass. Their prices are reasonable, and they look to find warranty coverage for any service first. I would definitely recommend them! More

I was I bought my 2007 Honda accord I thought from a reputable place, I did not. I specifically asked about the brakes before buying the car. I was told it was certified and although I thought the price was too high I wanted a dependable car. Well I have had nothing but problems with my brakes. After having the car six months having issues with my brakes after I "serviced" them a month before. I brought my car in and received a phone call that I needed rotors and pads and it was going to cost me close to $500. I was shocked that they would charge me and had an argument with Linda. I ended up getting a one-time courtesy after she spoke with the manager. She accused me of aggressive driving and that's why my brakes were wearing out so fast. Well it turns out that the master brake cylinder was bad and I had been driving the car Dangerously after going there 3 times. Well now I have more problems with the brakes and I go in and of course I get Linda again and she starts off with how much its going to cost to have them even look at it, mind you I have the service rewards program. Well leaving close to hundred dollars later, they "unfroze my brakes", rotated my tires and replaced a vanity light. I still have problems with my brakes!! I am sick of hearing "get a real car" or "your brakes again!” I also had Linda waving a booklet in front of my face saying I’m not serving my brakes regularly and oh yeah you bought this car USED from us, and mind you I could of gotten a new Chevy Cobalt cheaper than this car. I still have to go back because they sold me the car with a heated seat problem and it was "fixed" already once. I spend too much of my time having to keep going back out to Penfield. And Linda let me know they were charging my Honda care $115.00 to even look at the seat! And they tired to make me feel like I got a deal leaving with bad brakes yet again...I am so over this car and hopefully I can trade it in when I go to a DIFFERENT Honda dealer! More
Once again, Linda helped me out. The inside passenger door on my 2005 Accord just recently would not open from the inside. The service dept. determined that it was because of the cable being cut by an a door on my 2005 Accord just recently would not open from the inside. The service dept. determined that it was because of the cable being cut by an after-market speaker installation done by a well-known tech store. Linda wrote up the repair being very descriptive about the damage and the dates and providing me with the cut cable as proof. She spoke with the tech store manager on my phone and she gave me extra copies of the repair order and previous service bills for my proof. Thank you for going the extra mile! More
