I'm not one who leaves reviews very often, but I will say that I always like dealing with Rob Munson and even more importantly, trust what he tells me about my car and what it needs. More

Curtis, I was surprised by your review since we spoke at length about the remorse you had over your purchase and as a result I compensated you a free Tonneau cover that was delivered to you. We left on a positive note. When I saw this review, I called you immediately and left a message to see what had changed over the last 2 months. It’s unfortunate your remorse has returned. Please reach to me to discuss what has changed since we last spoke. Ross Hubert General Manager Lia Honda of Kingston rhubert@liacars.com

Please reach to me to discuss what has changed since we last spoke. Ross Hubert General Manager Lia Honda of Kingston rhubert@liacars.com [/QUOTE] Ross. I did get your phone message on January 07, 2025 in which you said "I just saw a review that you posted and I was under the impression that we were on a even ground with everything so I just want to see why the turn in feelings." As you know, many of us were busy with the past holidays and normal day to day activities. I also wanted to give some thought to what I would be said if I even did post review(s) or file complaints with the proper agencies. Now, pay attention. Yes, I did receive a tonneau cover at no additional charge as originally stated. "Free" however is not a word I would use. There has been no "turn in feelings" nor has "remorse returned." That has not changed from the minute I realized I was scammed by LIA Honda of Kingston. While you may feel we were on "even ground," it does not change the deceptive, dishonest, sales tactic used by LIA Honda of Kingston employee(s). Nice to see you don't dispute that. Of course, might not be the case had I not kept the worksheets (3) I was handed during the negotiation process. Ross, you had a chance to call salesman Luther Johnson to join us in our first in person conversation after I showed you the worksheets and other documents and find out who was responsible for adding money back on the new car price after negotiations and before signing. You did not. One would hope any auto dealership under the LIA name would not want employees guilty of such deceptive, unethical sales tactics within their organization. One would think a general manager would feel the same. Evidently not. At least not at Kingston, New York, LIA Honda. If salesman Luther Johnson who is the only one I spoke with the entire time during negotiation and sale, was a honest man, he would have said "this is the best we can do" as I have been told more than once in my five decades of buying new/used vehicles. He did not do that for his own benefit and possibly others. In closing, this is a auto dealer review. Sharing my experience. I've given the service department high ranking as earned and sales, the lowest possible as deserved. If I truly had vehicle purchase "remorse," the 2025 Ridgeline would not be in my driveway today. I would not have purchased a Honda Care extended warranty from another dealer along with running boards and mud guards. I may be in the market for another vehicle in 3 years. I may not. What I do know is I will not be dealing with any LIA dealership for a new car purchase or lease. That, I can assure you. Curtis H.
