The customer service was excellent. I feel they gave me the best price and service I could have received. Lucy and Ernie were just not trying to sell a car, but to help me find what was best for me.

I had taken the 2002 Honda Odyssey to an independent auto repair facility to have snow tires put on the vehicle. They noticed a leak from the front right strut and also recommended changing the timing belt/w repair facility to have snow tires put on the vehicle. They noticed a leak from the front right strut and also recommended changing the timing belt/water pump/seals given the age of the low mileage vehicle, as well as changing spark plugs and a fuel system flush. To verify their analysis and determine whether their pricing was competitive I took the vehicle to Ken Garff Downtown Honda where Service Advisor Jared Royce (who I did not previously know) advised that the fuel system flush was unnecessary, new spark plugs were not needed, and that the independent repair shop had failed to include a "tensioner" (a critical component) with their estimate for replacing the timing belt. He also recommended four-wheel alignment would be advisable after replacing the struts [even though, in his opinion, only one strut really required immediate replacement]. He made it clear that the Honda dealer wanted the business and would adjust its price to be competitive. Given the vehicle age and lack of recent service, he recommended draining and filling the transmission, flushing and replacing the brake fluid, flushing and replacing the engine coolant, and flushing and replacing the power steering fluid. During the work the mechanic observed that the main seal on the oil pan was leaking from the rear (normally an $800 job to replace given the location and work involved). They also discovered a broken rear motor mount, and observed that the stabilizer sway bar end links were loose and needed replacement. Because so much work was being performed on the vehicle, the additional work to replace the rear motor mount and sway bar end links was performed at no charge. Additionally, the dealership has a 15% discount for work performed on Wednesdays. All-in-all, with the 15% discount I saved over $450, as well as had various work done at no charge except for the cost of parts (probably valued at another 5% discount). Additionally, this Honda dealer performed a deluxe wash and mini-detail for free! The car, mechanically, is like new. I would recommend this dealer to anyone. They were honest in their assessments, did not take advantage of my inferior bargaining position given the circumstances (which some other dealer or repair shop might have done), and with their discounts not only came closer to the independent garage's pricing for the originally needed repairs, but discovered important items really in need of repair, which the independent garage missed. I especially would recommend Jared Royce both for his excellent knowledge about Honda vehicles as well as his willingness to discount the work to be competitive as well as to completely discount some additional work because the vehicle already was in a state of disassembly such that additional work could be performed at no cost to me except for parts.

We discussed the price over the phone and dealer manager agreed to a price. Customer service was fine. I would say that price agreed was a good one. After price was agreed, lot of additional fee was added agreed to a price. Customer service was fine. I would say that price agreed was a good one. After price was agreed, lot of additional fee was added (when I was about to sign). Person who was finishing the deal said the extra fees are mandatory. I went back to internet sales person again saying I would not buy. After few minutes, they agreed to the negotiated price. After signing the papers, he just turned to his monitor without saying anything. he was very unfriendly. More

Lucy and Eddie were so great to work with! They were really low pressure and listened to my needs. I really appreciated how nice and helpful and professional both of them were. Eddie was also very fai really low pressure and listened to my needs. I really appreciated how nice and helpful and professional both of them were. Eddie was also very fair with me on my trade-in. I wanted more, of course, but I felt like with the trade-in and the fair price on the used CRV, I left there not feeling like I had to give up my house to afford the "new" car. Thank you! I wish you had a women sales person, even though Eddie was really nice! More
