This is, by far, the most professional dealership I have ever encountered! After several stressful new car purchases at other dealerships, I never thought I'd buy a new car and walk away, not only pleased ever encountered! After several stressful new car purchases at other dealerships, I never thought I'd buy a new car and walk away, not only pleased, but also with a feeling of being treated like 'family.' I've had a couple of questions after bringing my new car home, and my questions were answered immediately! I HIGHLY recommend Ourisman Honda Volkswagen of Laurel! More
On June 11, 2009 I visited the Honda of Laurel Dealer in Laurel, MD. It was at this time that I spoke with a salesman, Ryan Dunn. Ryan was very professional and pleasant. At this time I explained to Ryan my Laurel, MD. It was at this time that I spoke with a salesman, Ryan Dunn. Ryan was very professional and pleasant. At this time I explained to Ryan my credit situation and how much of a deposit I would be able to put down on a vehicle. He, acting as a liaison between myself and the finance manager, Brian, received the okay to accept the $2400 deposit. It was also explained on this day that I had $600 at that moment, would have $300 on June 26, 2009, and the remaining $1500 on July 24, 2009. As a result, I wrote the necessary postdated checks and signed contracts and all other necessary paperwork. The following week I contacted the dealer to inform them that the horn was not working (brand new car). They took note and wanted me to bring the car in to be checked. I brought the car back in to be checked on June 16, 2009. At that time I was told that the part had to be ordered and I would be called when the part came in. I received a call from the service department on June 25th, informing me that the part was in and that I could bring it in to be repaired. During all of the service calls, I was still in contact with Joe Razulzad regarding the financing of the vehicle. He had informed me that I no longer had to put the initial down payment of $2400 down but $1800 instead. Since the dealer at that point had $1000 of my down payment, I only owed $800 which Joe said could still be paid on July 24, 2009. I scheduled the appointment and brought the car in on June 30, 2009. When I returned on July 1, 2009 to pick up the car and return the rental, I was told (by service) that the Finance Manager, Brian, needed to see me. I walked over to speak to Brian and this is when he informed me that “We are going to need the last $800 now or we cannot allow you to stay in the car”. I asked him to explain and he matter-of-factly told me that they could no longer wait until the 24th of July. Since I did not have the $800 on that day, I had no choice but to ask for my $1000 back. At no point did Brian seem regretful nor did he offer me any other deals to try to accommodate me. Now I know that I am no finance professional but at the very least this was terrible customer service. Especially when I did nothing wrong and kept up with my end of the finance deal. I think that this was very unfair and I feel that I was toyed with. Why would a dealer allow anyone to drive a car for 3 weeks and then all of a sudden snatch the car away? At present I am in the process of filing a claim with the Better Business Bureau if no other reason then to make other buyer aware. I am appalled at the service I received and I would never refer anyone to go through what I went through at Honda of Laurel. I always thought of Honda as one of the leading car dealers, no any more. I now have no desire to ever want to deal with a Honda dealer again. This has even abolished my love for Honda vehicles. I am no longer in the market for one and have decided to shop around for a Toyota instead. I would only hope that this is recognized as an unfair act and that this never happens to anyone else. More
We went to buy a new Jetta Sportwagen at Ourisman VW dealership located in Laurel, MD. Our test drive was fun; salesman was pretty patient in explaining all the new features of the car. However, dealers dealership located in Laurel, MD. Our test drive was fun; salesman was pretty patient in explaining all the new features of the car. However, dealership did not have the car in the color and trim we wanted. We wanted to place a factory order; but the sales manager stepped and promised us to get a similar vehicle from a different dealership if we agreed to a proposed deal right then and there. We agreed; but the sales manager could not keep his promise. He could not get the vehicle from multiple dealerships. A factory order was placed for us and we were told that the original deal will be honored. But after 2 months of waiting, we found out that the new vehicle (that was ordered for us) was sold to a different customer!! They did not even notify us. Apparently the sales manager did not want to honor the original deal anymore!! He made the original deal to reach his monthly quota and when once he realized that he could not get the vehicle in time, he had no intention to honor the deal. Not only he promised to deliver a car that he did not possess, he kept us in complete darkness about the factory order. He had no courtesy to talk to us after he sold the factory ordered car to someone else. Beware of false promises to you hear when you visit this dealership. Most importantly, don't trust anything that comes out of the mouth of dishonest and unethical sales manager at Ourisman Volkswagen of Laurel. More

My wife and I are on the market for a new vehicle, and since we live about 2 miles from Ourisman Honda of Laurel we decided to stop by and check out the CRV. We initially were met by a salesperson who since we live about 2 miles from Ourisman Honda of Laurel we decided to stop by and check out the CRV. We initially were met by a salesperson who took us on a test drive and showed us the SUV. After we were done with the test drive, we were introduced to Steve Cole, a sales manager who asked if we had any questions. When we responded that we did not and were not at the point where price discussions were necessary, we were taken by complete Surprise!! Mr Cole invited us to participate in their win before you buy. We filled out a very simple form and taken to a version of a lottery machine from which he would draw 4 xxxxx. If the numbers on the xxxxx drawn matched the last 4 digits of my drivers license, we would win the car we had test driven!!! While we did not win the CRV, we did win a free tank of gas, which was promptly given to us. Although we have not decided which vehicle we will purchase yet, if that choice is a Honda we will definetly give Ourisman Honda of Laurel a chance at our business! It was a very plesasnt experience, and both my wife and I agree that the chance we were given to win the car showed us that this dealership is not your usual car place!!! By the way, when we got home, I went online and found that the odds were about 1 in 10,000 of winning the CRV, not to bad for a free shot at a vehicle!!! Kudos Ourisman for a unique and fun visit to a dealership!! More
If only Honda knows what is happening in this dealer, Honda will definitely fire all these people, they are giving a bad impression about the quality of Honda. What a bad experience buying a vehicle. at Honda will definitely fire all these people, they are giving a bad impression about the quality of Honda. What a bad experience buying a vehicle. at first they will give you an internet price which they call "on the road price", but hey wait, it will be the deceiving part of it, the amount on papers will be different. The sales people are very pushy and eventually liars about the deal. They say they like to earn your business but in fact they are the one who only "earns their business", not the consumers. TRY OTHER DEALERS, ITS NOT WORTHY TO TALK WITH THIS OPPORTUNISTIC PEOPLE. More
Steve Cole gave me a quote no other dealership in Maryland or Virginia would touch and he honored that quote to the very end. A few competitors suggested Steve wasn't being honest and upfront but St Maryland or Virginia would touch and he honored that quote to the very end. A few competitors suggested Steve wasn't being honest and upfront but Steve stuck to his quote. The only way the purchase could have been easier was if they came to my house. I was in and out of the dealership within 30 minutes. I purchased a 2008 Odyssey EX-L for $25k. By far this was the best new car buying experience I've ever had. More
I was promised a second key with the purchase of my car from Mr. Abdul the finance person and never recieved it. When the defective key I got with my car broke I was treated like a rip off artist by Mr. P from Mr. Abdul the finance person and never recieved it. When the defective key I got with my car broke I was treated like a rip off artist by Mr. Parme probably because he is racist as I am an african american woman in my 20's. He told my mother he would give me a discount for the key because of what I had been promised and then when I got to the service department and he saw me then his whole attitude changed and he only offered a $5 dollar discount. After both my mother and I had to raise a fuss he then tells Mr. Campbell the service manager over the phone to just take off whatever he could. He never apologized for how he treated me. Then when the service department programed my key they messed up my remote start that was on the car when I purchased it and when I called Mr. Campbell to let him know that it needed to be fixed because it worked before they touched my car he nastily tells me it not his responsibilty because it is after-market. I still have not resolved the issue but if I have to take it all the way to the corporate office he will either have his techs repair it or if they don't know how(as he said they don't) they will pay to get it done.

William was my salesman. He was a young fellow, 20 years old. He didn't know everything about the vehicle I was buying, but he knew enough of the vehicle's features to make a decent presentation. Prior to old. He didn't know everything about the vehicle I was buying, but he knew enough of the vehicle's features to make a decent presentation. Prior to going there, I obtained prices from several local dealerships via e-mail. When I went to Ourisman, it was only to LOOK at the vehicle... Ourisman is close to where I work and therefore convenient. However, William asked "What do I have to do to get you to buy this vehicle from us?" I responded, "...match this price." They matched the price, but tacked on $325 for mud flaps, wheel locks and pinstripes. For the record, my cost for the vehicle was either at or a touch below dealer invoice. Then, I got to the business manager Tyrone. He was a nice enough guy, but I have to warn the inexperienced people out there: He will try and get ya! He gave me a higher interest rate than what I should have gotten (8.xx %), but I noticed it and told him I should have gotten the 3.9%. He fixed it, and responded that he didn't know Honda was still offering that. He was then very adament about the extended warranties. In fact, in the way he presented the warranties he made it sound like you had to get one of them. He never gave an option of "no warranty." I declined all the warranties, and he tried to make a case that the warranties had all this value but finally gave up after about 30 minutes. If you're the type of buyer who knows what you're doing, then you will be able to deal with Ourisman and get a good deal. Bottom Line: Recommended for veterans of car buying, Not Recommended for rookies. More
