This is the second time I have purchased a car from him, and I can't thank him enough for his patience and kindness. He is very hardworking and willing to go above and beyond for his clients. I appreciate him more than he realizes, and I look forward to working with him again. If you are ever at Brandon Honda, ask for Eddie, and you won't regret it.

later the vehicle had an engine control issue. After 3 weeks they supposedly fixed it then 60 days later the same issue came on. Brandon Hondas warranty will not cover what they once covered before and refuses to fix this defective vehicle. Buyer beware when buying a used car from them. They are not honest and do not stand by their vehicles.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We’re very sorry to hear about the ongoing issues you’ve experienced with your vehicle, especially so soon after purchase. We understand how frustrating it is to deal with repeated concerns and warranty questions after believing the issue had been resolved.
Our goal is always to properly diagnose and repair concerns while clearly explaining warranty coverage and next steps. We regret that this has not been your experience. We would appreciate the opportunity to review your repair history and the coverage details further to better understand the situation and assist however we can.
Please feel free to contact either of us directly so we can look into this further with you.

While we understand your frustration, Brandon Honda respectfully declines your requested settlement of $3,000. The vehicle was purchased pre-owned in January, and shortly after purchase you experienced a concern that was addressed through the manufacturer, Kia. Brandon Honda facilitated the repair process and paid approximately $2,500 for the repair to assist in resolving the issue for you. Following the repair, the check engine light remained off and the vehicle operated without issue for approximately four months.
You have now returned to Kia with a concern that is not related to the original repair completed by Kia. If the current issue were related to the original repair, it would fall under Kia’s repair warranty coverage. However, based on the diagnosis and information available, this is not the same issue previously repaired.
As with any pre-owned vehicle, Brandon Honda cannot predict or prevent future mechanical failures that may occur after purchase. For this reason, extended service contracts are offered at the time of sale to help protect customers from unexpected repair expenses. You did decline the opportunity to purchase extended warranty coverage.
Brandon Honda acted in good faith by assisting with the initial repair through the manufacturer and does not agree with the claims that the dealership was dishonest or failed to stand behind the vehicle.
Thank you,

I respectfully disagree and have 100% faith you knew the vehicle was defective before you even sold it to me. Now after the same engine control issue and with different parts, you now no longer want to stand by the vehicle. Your sales department cannot be trusted nor any repairs you supposedly facilitate and warranty. That is unethical.

00 for a allegedly 140 point inspection of used vehicle. When in fact all they do is an $1,397.00 oil change . I bought a 2024 Chevrolet pickup with 14k miles and the right rear axle shaft was bent and sensor wires hanging down on the right side and axle housing leaking gear oil . I've owned the pickup for 12 days and the Dealership service has had it for the last 10 days and counting. Brandon Honda 140 inspection is a joke and a rip off for the $1,397.00 that they charge . Would not recommend this Dealership to anyone .

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m very sorry to hear about your experience and the concerns you’ve had with your vehicle so soon after purchase. That is certainly not the outcome we want, and I understand how frustrating it must be to have your vehicle in service for an extended period.
Our inspection process is intended to identify issues before delivery, and I regret that this has not reflected your experience. I would appreciate the opportunity to review the details of your vehicle and the work being performed so we can ensure everything is being addressed properly. Please reach out to me directly so I can look into this further and assist.

I had an unusual problem with this dealership when first
purchasing a car, but I talked with Sam Raabe and he was able to make it right in a big way. I am now happy with my vehicle and service.

the vehicle itself. The sales process was generally fine, but I had a concerning experience during financing.
After agreeing on an out-the-door price, I later discovered additional charges (about $2,700) that were not clearly disclosed to me at the time of signing. When I reached out, the General Manager and finance manager responded promptly and worked to resolve the issue, ultimately providing compensation that I appreciate.
However, the initial lack of transparency from the finance representative I worked with was disappointing. I had asked about key details like total financed amount and terms, and did not receive clear answers.
I’ve been a loyal Honda customer, and while I value how management handled the resolution, this experience has made me more cautious about the financing process. I hope Honda continues to emphasize transparency and accountability at all levels of the customer experience.

That said, I understand your concerns regarding the clarity of the financing process. You should always feel fully informed and confident in every part of the transaction, and I appreciate you bringing that feedback forward. It’s something we take seriously and continue to work on across all levels of the experience.
We truly value your loyalty to the Honda brand and your business with us. Thank you again for giving us the opportunity to address the situation, and we’re here if you ever need anything moving forward.

That was one of the 2 requirements we wanted was a car NOT smoked in. Found out later they had put an ozone machine in it to hide the smell. The smel became noticeable after 2 days owning it. It took me requesting 3 times (over the course of 2 weeks) to finally receive the registration sticker from the dealership that we didn’t receive at the time of purchase. I called twice and emailed the GM. The GM emailed me back only to state he was sorry for the inconvenience, which is a bit disappointing as well. Then got me in touch with someone in finance to solve the registration situation and to get copies of our paperwork that we didn’t receive at time of purchase. I will not be recommending this dealership due to deceptive practices, which includes lying to us saying there was no evidence of the car being smoked in. Since having the car we have had to have it majorly detailed to try and rid the car of the smell. We will more than likely have to have it done again. This car is for our 16 year old daughter. Super disappointing.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Kayle. I’m very sorry to hear how frustrating this situation has been for you and your family, especially when purchasing a vehicle for your daughter. I understand your concerns regarding the odor in the vehicle and the delay in receiving your registration materials and paperwork. That is certainly not the experience we want our customers to have.
We strive to be transparent about the condition of every vehicle, and I regret that you feel this was not the case. I would appreciate the opportunity to review the details of your purchase and the follow-up communication so we can better understand what occurred and determine how we may assist further.

I would like to revise my star rating for this dealership to a 4. I am only doing so, due to Justin Jarrell, the General Sales Manager, at Brandon Honda. Justin responded very professionally and addressed each issue we had with the upmost sincerity to try and help resolve our concerns. Although, some of the issues couldn't be resolved (like not getting paperwork at time of purchase, being told the car wasn't smoked in, etc), they were heard and we were given the assurance communication would be made. Plus, we were compensated for an additional detail if needed for the car. Thank you so much Justin for your time and kindness in helping with a resolution to our concerns. If you need a reliable car, go see Justin at Brandon Honda!
This dealership was not upfront about their pricing and
the lease inclusions and management refused to acknowledge the problem.
