Tempe Honda
I never leave online reviews, but this time I just had to. I'm a single mother of 4 kids. I bought a used Honda Odyssey at this dealership in June of 2016 for $12,000.00. The vehicle came with no warranty, but I felt confident getting a reliable car when buying directly from the Honda dealer. Since I bought the car, I already had to take it to the mechanic several times. The air conditioning stopped working just 2-3 months after I bought it and had to get it fixed. In October, all the gauges and dashboard stopped working and the van started to make strange noises. It had to be taken to get fixed again. Beginning of November it started shaking very bad and ended up at the mechanic for almost a week. After it was fixed, it started shaking again and had to be taken to the mechanic a 4th time. Now, it's shaking again and it sounds like something is rubbing against something else when driving on the freeway. We reached out directly to the general manager, but have not received any response. I don't know what to do. I can't afford constantly fixing it. Now I am stuck paying a vehicle for several years that doesn't work properly?
Ask for Woody. He was very friendly, fast and helpful. I really appreciate the time he took to listen and assist me. The rest of the staff was also very accommodating. I have been to other honda dealer service centers and never had such an easy experience.
The sales manager was so cooperative and very helpful in helping us have a great car
Very disappointed with my first car buying experience. Bought an over $20 K 2014 Cr-V I was told the car would be great for a mom with two young kids, Reliable, it would rarely brake, blah, blah. The car still has 4 k bumper to bumper warranty and about 30 000 more miles for the included warranty (don't know the name). After more than 3 long hours at the dealership, I finally got to meet Ed, the finance guy. He made sure I felt concerned about my car breaking and me not having the Extended Warranty. He said, my A/C would cost me $1800 to fix if it broke, and came with all these scary numbers that my car would cost to fix! Guess what? My kids were hungry, tired, annoyed after bring there all afternoon and I was exhausted....so I agreed to purchase it. He even mentioned that the sales man used the employee discount to give me a discount that I still cannot find on my documents. I was offered $2500 for trade in and ended up getting $2000 because they were going to fix the $100 radiator plus the $100 cost of labor??? SO where the xxxx are the other $300???? I didn't know what a Low Jack is but when I signed the docs I saw it was on he price, I learned a day later that they just put it and included it on the price without asking if I was purchasing it. Of course, they saw the naive mom desperate to buy a reliable car right? I bought the car last Saturday, called them on Monday to ask to cancel the EXTENDED WARRANTY, the sales man said, he would call me, never did. I ended up leaving work and paying for after care for my kids to go and see the people at Honda in person. I was sent to see "Ed" the finance guy again. He was no longer super nice, friendly, Ed. He said I could cancel the EXTENDED WARRANTY but I would not be able to get the money on my pocket. Ed said it would go towards my principal in a couple of months. He was dry and annoyed. Just FYI, those extended warranties now I know, you can buy them if you really need them for less than $600. In my case the total cost for the warranty after the term of the loan would be costing me nearly $2700 with Honda Tempe (their back end profit). Here is the million dollar question: If you kept telling me how amazing and reliable my new car was going to be, especially because it is a Honda and SO NEW, why did you insisted NON STOP on me buying an EXTENDED WARRANTY when the car still has so much warranty left?Rather than feeling happy for my new car, I feel so stressed about the enormous amount of a loan I ended up with. I put $10,000 down payment and they still ripped me off. And here is the best part, they told me my old car was so old it was going to go to the auction. GUESS WHAT? They already have my Ford Escape on their website for sale for over $5000!!Liars.
I shopped around for over three weeks and Dailynn Daniels from Tempe Honda gave us the best deal!! This was the easiest car buying experience ever!! I would recommend to friends and family.
Our sales person Saad Al-Hashimi provided a lot of details to make an easy decision for this purchase. Great attitude. He was very easy going and followed up the next day to make sure everything was going OK and if we had any questions about the car. The entire staff was great to work with.
I did all of the research and quoting via email, and made an appointment to purchase the vehicle my wife had selected. I got there and the vehicle was ready, and all the terms were exactly as discussed earlier. After everything was done and we were ready to drive off, I noticed a single item on the vehicle I had not noticed before. It was entirely personal preference, I would not have noticed had an exact model not been parked immediatly next to it. I asked if I could have it changed. Keep in mind that my wife's iphone is already paired to the bluetooth and the car is running ready for us to leave. I would not have felt bad at all had they said no. Instead, the service manager was brought out, he took it back to the service bay, and 25 minutes later I left with it exactly the way I wanted it.I had put off this needed purchase because I was dreading the process so much. Had I known that the process would be this easy, pleasant and straightforward, I would have purchased much sooner.
I have to say it has been one of the best buying experience for my family. A big shout out to Robert Ramos for making it run smooth and simple. Couldn't have asked for a better person to help us out with our purchase. All the staff is amazing and do take care of their customers very well. If you are looking to purchase or lease a car I really recommend them. You guys wouldn't be upset I promise!
For being my first buying experience, I have to say Tempe Honda staff made it a great one! Robert offered his best customer service, was patient, and very knowledgeable. He made sure we walked out with the vehicle I wanted and that it was in perfect condition. All our questions were answered. Overall great experience, Im very happy I chose Tempe Honda!
Best car buying experience ever. I have purchased 3 vehicles in the past 4 years. Would recommend Tempe Honda to everyone.
