This is the 2nd pre-owned car (Honda CR-V) we've purchased here. Super impressed with their customer service. We had very specific needs for both cars and Steve Kolenda went above and beyond to find purchased here. Super impressed with their customer service. We had very specific needs for both cars and Steve Kolenda went above and beyond to find us the vehicle that was juuuuust right! He made sure to touch base regularly and send us updates when a vehicle came in that he thought might work for us. That's just one example of their service. Their service department is top notch too. We purchased our 1st pre-owned car (Subaru Forester) and a week later, merging onto the interstate, we watched a crack shoot across the windshield. Replaced, no argument, no issue, quickly and painlessly. I honestly don't think we will use any other dealer than New Motors for future vehicle purchases. More
