I had a very disappointing experience with Napleton Honda in Lansing during negotiations for a 2025 Honda CR-V. Two days prior, I visited the dealership and received a printed offer showing an out-the-doo in Lansing during negotiations for a 2025 Honda CR-V. Two days prior, I visited the dealership and received a printed offer showing an out-the-door price around $32,000 along with a $16,995 trade-in value for my vehicle. Before returning to the dealership, my father called to confirm the car was still available, and separately my salesperson called me directly and stated they would still honor the deal if I came in. After driving about 45 minutes back to the dealership, I was then told the vehicle was “tied up in a sale” and that if I still wanted the vehicle, the price would suddenly increase by $3,500 because they planned to sell it to CarMax instead. I understand vehicles can sell quickly, but the communication and handling of the situation felt misleading and disrespectful of my time. If the terms had changed or the vehicle was no longer realistically available, that should have been communicated before asking me to come back to the dealership. I’m leaving this review so other customers are aware of my experience and can make informed decisions when negotiating here. More

Had an appointment for a simple oil change and tire rotation, still waited over two hours. After I asked about the delay, they found a nail in my tire and patched it “as a courtesy.” Cool. But about an rotation, still waited over two hours. After I asked about the delay, they found a nail in my tire and patched it “as a courtesy.” Cool. But about an hour after leaving, the tire pressure light came on. I had to call off work and return the next morning. That visit? A circus. My name was called by mistake, and when I followed up, the advisor just pointed to a guy and said, “We meant him.” No apology, no clarity. She seemed much more attentive to male customers and only got friendly when she wanted a good review, she even followed up asking for one. I appreciated the free car wash, but overall? Sloppy, impersonal service. I won’t be back. More
