South Hills Honda & sales person Bozi are exceptional! My 2016 Honda CRV is the 3rd vehicle that my husband and I have purchased from South Hills Honda. We have always had positive experience with South H My 2016 Honda CRV is the 3rd vehicle that my husband and I have purchased from South Hills Honda. We have always had positive experience with South Hills Honda in both sales and the service department. Each sales person has exceed our expectations and the sales staff gets better with each experience. Our sales person, Bozidar (Bozi) Bjelcic, was exceptional. He was extremely personable and courteous. He was very knowledgeable about past and current vehicles models. He listened to what was important to us when buying a new vehicle and explained those features thoroughly. He was prompt and efficient, having my in stock vehicle ready for delivery 24 hours after I made my decision to purchase the 2016 CRV. I would unconditionally recommend South Hills Honda and our sales representative, Bozidar (Bozi) Bjelcic. Thank you to Bozi and the South Hills Honda team for a positive car buying experience! More

worst customers service In 2011, I bought my car from this diller. Last week I stopped by the South Hills Honda Diller for an inspection, oil change and break repair. The wom In 2011, I bought my car from this diller. Last week I stopped by the South Hills Honda Diller for an inspection, oil change and break repair. The women who work there asked me if I have an appointment, what I did not have. She asked me what I need and when I told her only thing that was coming out of her mouth was I cannot do that without an appointment. At any moment, she did not offer any help to schedule an appointment or to try to find the next available appointment. When I asked her can they look at my break because something is wrong, the answer was " no without an appointment". I turned around and left with the car that was not safe to drive due to brake problem but they did not care. Good way to go Honda! Then I went on-line and scheduled an appointment with them and I got a message that someone will call me shortly. Supprize, supprize 6 days later I still did not receive the call. I am done with that place. Next year, when I replace my car, I know for sure that my new car will NOT be Honda. If they cannot provide proper support for the car, I want nothing to do with them. Sending a person who complain about the breaks back to the road without any inspection is just wrong!!! More
Left the dealershipt feeling like I was mugged. Went to South Hills Honda to look at a 2015 Honda Pilot. The vehicle was a demo that had ~ 2k miles on it. The experience was awful from the moment we Went to South Hills Honda to look at a 2015 Honda Pilot. The vehicle was a demo that had ~ 2k miles on it. The experience was awful from the moment we parked and got out of our car. The salesperson met us before we could get in the door and told us that somebody else was already looking at the car. During the test drive, we noticed food stains on the headliner, scratches and filth everywhere. The outside had several chips and at least on large scuff on the bumper. We were desperate for a 2015 Pilot because my Wife loves her 2009 and we don't like the 2016 changes. All they had to do was promise to fix the car and make it like new and we would have bought it on the spot.... No such offer was made. I am sure that some fool will buy it, but not this fool. More
Inspection and oil change. Great service department, handled everything quickly and plugged a tire with a slow leak for free. Price was the same or better than small garages.

Play tricks on clients. the worst dealer I've met. When I purchased a CRV in 2009, this dealer offered me an extended 2 year (2012 to 2014) warranty by Zurich on the vehicle. The finance guy told u When I purchased a CRV in 2009, this dealer offered me an extended 2 year (2012 to 2014) warranty by Zurich on the vehicle. The finance guy told us we would pay additional $1000 cash for this extended warranty in advance and we could get money back if we did not make any claim during those two years. I bought this service in view of the refund policy although the manufacturer already provides a powertrain 5 years warranty and the extended warranty is not effective until three years later after the payment. Everything was fine until 5 years later. I was expecting to receive the refund as I did not claim anything under this extended warranty. However, when I contacted the store about the $1000 refund, they told me that I need to show them a form to receive the refund. The fact is that the finance guy did not give or even mention any form that I would need to receive the fund. Even worse, they told me that they did not see any record of the refund policy in my purchase in their system. The finance guy who worked with me five years ago was not there anymore. Thus, they argued that they could not verify my purchase and would not issue the refund! I realized that it is either because the finance guy forgot this form or the finance guy tried to sell the extended warranty to us by telling us it was refundable when it was not. After this happened, I searched online and saw many negative reviews about how the extended warranty is not worthwhile and how the dealer tries hard to sell the extended warranty to the customers. I went to the store and talked to the owner Mr. Norton directly. I was offered two options on site: $500 cash or $1000 credit from his service department. At the store, he said he would email us the $1000 credit that could be used for anything offered in his service department except for purchasing another car. In view of my previous experience, I double confirmed this with Mr. Norton before I left the shop. However, when I revived the email, the description on the voucher was significantly different than he promised. It excludes any parts or accessories, which means to use the $1000 credit, I have to purchase parts from his store and to spend thousands of dollars more in his store! The service also has to arrange through a particular staff (Why? So they can charge a higher price on the service?). In addition, I’m not allowed to reveal my negative experience with their store on any website if I accept this voucher (don’t know how many times he has covered negative comments by doing this). When I asked him to issue the voucher as he promised before, he threatened me that I either took this offer, or I would nothing! So for the second time, the dealer reneged what he promised. In the end, he refused to answer any of my concerns and questions and threatened me again that either I accepted the offer or I would get zero. What an awful experience ! More
Overall good experience except these 2 concerns I bought a 2010 (Certified car by Honda) Honda Civic Ex back in May 2014. Overall I am happy with my first car buying experience. Jim Gracey worked pa I bought a 2010 (Certified car by Honda) Honda Civic Ex back in May 2014. Overall I am happy with my first car buying experience. Jim Gracey worked patiently and responded to my queries quickly. However during the test drive I noticed that Tire pressure light was on and asked Jim about it. He said they would fix it. The sale was finalized and since it was a Honda certified car I did not recheck the car. To my shock while driving back home I noticed that the Tire pressure light was still on. I did not worry too much as it was an easy fix. The next day I went to gas station and tire pressure was unexpectedly low. I worked on it and the light went off. But the light was back ON again after few days and still remains on. I don’t think that the light should have been back ON so quickly. May be something is wrong with the Tire pressure check light or tires it self. Another thing was that my car came without floor mats! On the Internet advertisement it was clearly indicated that the car comes with the floor mats but it really did not. I called Jim and he said the floor mats might have been sold with another car or they might have been damaged. Since this is a Honda certified car they cannot sell me anything which is damaged. But he offered that he could give away some ordinary mats, which will not be from Honda. I was not shocked but frustrated that even when I bought the Honda certified car I had to buy the HONDA floor mats myself since I did not want to drive 30 miles back and forth for some ordinary floor mats which may not even fit to my car. Also I still have to figure out the tire pressure light. Again I would like to say that I am happy with the car I bought and overall transaction with South Hills Honda. But other than good sales spirit, how you take care of your customers after sale is complete matters as well, which is why I am writing my review. More
A great car buying experience I recently purchased a 2011 Honda CRV at this dealership. My salesmen, Cody Johnson was great, he found me the car I wanted for the price I wanted. I recently purchased a 2011 Honda CRV at this dealership. My salesmen, Cody Johnson was great, he found me the car I wanted for the price I wanted. I hate car shopping and I am glad I came here after going to several other places with no luck. The financing was a breeze and the financing manager was very friendly and efficient. Thank you to all the guys at SHH for making me a very satisfied customer. More
Worst car buying experience ever I came to South Hills Honda looking to purchase a used 2008 Honda Civic coupe. I was looking to lower my payment, and did not have a problem purchasin I came to South Hills Honda looking to purchase a used 2008 Honda Civic coupe. I was looking to lower my payment, and did not have a problem purchasing a vehicle older than my current one with higher miles. When I arrived at the dealer, they took me out to show me the car I was interested in. It was the wrong one. So then began the search to find the vehicle I was inquiring about. It was still in the garage, and hadn't even been serviced yet. The vehicle was already listed for sale online, and the description of the vehicle was "Extremely rare" and "well maintained". Granted I do understand the vehicle had not been serviced since trade, it was filthy, full of animal hair, the visor was broken, service light on, tire pressure light on, and the front bumper cover had a huge hole in it from an accident. The headlights were also mismatched (I'm assuming due to being replaced from another accident). I was informed that if the vehicle was in an accident, it would be on the car fax from a police report etc. Which upon research, accidents don't always show up on a carfax if they are under a certain damage amount. I drove the vehicle, agreed on the price as long as all issues were fixed, etc. Upon talking about my trade (my car was newer, lower miles, still under powertrain warranty, etc), I was offered over $2000 less than my payoff, which is right at the trade-in value from KBB, Edmund's, etc. Also, upon further research, my same vehicle was being sold at auction for more than my payoff, with more miles, and in average condition. I kept getting the run around about no haggle room due to the price of the Honda, and a bunch of other poor excuses, trying to get me to trade my car and roll over the difference into a new loan with the prospect of still being able to lower my payment $75-$100. I stated what I wanted for the car, which was my payoff, or I was not going to trade. I had been to 2 other dealers, looking at used cars as well, and was offered my payoff right off the bat. Again, I kept getting the run around about cash value, and all this other stuff that was a tactic to get me out of my car for less than it was worth. I'm assuming that more money was sunken into the Civic than it was actually worth, so they were trying to make up for it by giving me less, then selling it at auction for more. I stated multiple times, if my trade couldn't be agreed upon, that I did not want to do business, etc. More than once I got more run around after CLEARLY stating payoff or no deal, and not to contact me about it again. They have several used cars on their lot that are beat up, scratched so bad they need an entire paint job, etc. Worst experience I have ever had from a car dealer, and I would not recommend them to anyone.

Oil change goes bad I took my car to south hills honda for an oil change, while it was there their technician working next to where my car was threw an oil filter, aiming I took my car to south hills honda for an oil change, while it was there their technician working next to where my car was threw an oil filter, aiming for the trash.. Missed and hit my car and denting the fender. I had to bring my car back for them to fix the dented fender. While fixing the fender the chipped and scratched the paint. I then had to make another appointment to take my car back for them to fix the paint. Terrible experience!! Will not go back. They're careless all that because some threw an oil filter around other peoples cars. More
