BUYER BEWARE!!! Valley Honda service is terrible and the Manager Steve appears to be quite inept when it comes to vehicles. My Honda Accord needed to be inspected and some additional repairs were done - $1400. Six weeks later, suddenly the oil had leaked so bad all over the engine and I needed everything replaced - $1700. I had a 30 year old Toyota Camry LE that didn't need this much work. I would never buy another Honda again!

They claim that they want to satisfy every customer but our request to return two accessories we didn’t need was ignored after we tried to contact them several times. They will not return your calls or e-mails. They really do not care if you are satisfied.

Once again, I don't use many people that I don't like. They're very reliable, professional, and reasonable.
Description of Work: I think that they probably did some work. I got a note that something had to be replaced, and then I have them do my so many mile service.

It was $270 to replace the fan mortar and the recall was free. They are generally positive. Sometimes it takes a while to get an appointment. It is waiting for the appointment that varies widely, sometimes you get it the next day and sometimes it is two or three weeks. Once I am in, they are pretty quick about getting me back out. The workers are good. They could work on the scheduling in future. I gave them a B overall because of price.

One of the features that he claimed the car had was an automatic dimmer on the rear view mirror. Later he claimed that he'd never said that. He must have realized, after he obtained the actual car I bought, that it didn't have that feature he'd told me it had. Rather than explain that to me, he just lied. After I'd purchased the car, I tried to make an appointment with him. It became very difficult to reach him. I called and left messages for him, but got no response. I finally told the manager. The manager told me I'd hear from Mr. Carlino in 5 minutes. I never heard from him. When I finally did reach him, we set an appointment for me to come to the dealership. When I arrived, I was told that he wasn't there, that it was his day off. Finally, I met with him. Unfortunately for me, he had me come about five minutes before a big dealership meeting of some kind. As he sat in the car with me, two other salesmen came up to the car and told him he really needed to get to the meeting. Whether there was or, as I suspect, there wasn't a meeting, he certainly had very little time to spend with me. He told me I could stay in their lot and practice parking head out. That was one of the capabilities he'd told me I could do by using the rear-view camera. I certainly knew how to turn the car around and back up into a spot. The tricky part was, of course, to be able to do that with confidence between two parked cars. There wasn't even a space available between two cars on that lot. Furthermore, I wouldn't have dared to park a car between two cars without some guidance. Mr. Carlino also insulted me to my face. I asked him why he hadn't suggested or even mention a GPS installed in the car. He told me he hadn't mentioned it because the Honda GPS was very sophisticated, too complicated for me to understand. What a sexist thing to say! I've had a GPS since they first became available to consumers. I have two masters degrees. How dare he! He made assumptions about my intelligence and my pocketbook without the slightest bit of evidence. I asked him if it wasn't too late to purchase Honda heavy duty floor mats. He said that they were way too expensive at nearly $200. Subsequently, I bought floor mats online; they cost me $200. After Mr. Carlino had insulted me and lied to me, I didn't want to go back to the dealership. I emailed the manager about the entire situation about two and a half weeks ago. I have heard nothing from him at all. At this point, I hate the car. I believe this is because I have such bad associations with it. Also, it stalled out on a busy street when I was in the middle lane. It was terrifying. In fact, I was shocked because, after all, it's a new car and also because I didn't think modern cars stalled any longer.
Description of Work: Salesman sold me a 2015 model when a 2016 would have been more to my advantage. I told him I didn't want to spend more money than I had to, and I was fine with a 2015. He never discussed available options with me. Some of the options I would have wanted were only available on the 2016 models, as I later discovered. It seems evident to me, at this time, that Mr. Corlino was only interested in making a quick sale. He bragged about the "wonderful" service he provided to his customers, told me several times that he'd meet with me as often as necessary to help me with the car's technology, that I was very lucky to have him work with me.

The actual transaction was fine, but they lied or greatly mislead me as to the history and quality of the car. The car was a 2008 honda civic, with only 15k miles on it. It seemed like it was in good condition, they told me one owner, no issues etc. The battery was on its last legs, I had to replace that within months. Then, recently, when i went to sell the car (to another dealer) they went over it with me and showed me that the hood and door had been replaced - and in doing some of the repairs they had taken the cheap way out and not properly sealed things so there was rust in places that weren't easily visible. I got a lot less for the car than KBB said it should be worth, and overall i was very unhappy that i hadn't been told about all of the work that had been done prior to my purchasing it.

It's hard for me to compare the price cause I don't go anywhere else, but I haven't been shocked and it was what I anticipated it would be. I honestly feel that they do not rip me off. That their pricing is honest. They explain what needs done. I am sure this is pretty standard, but I feel they are respectful of me and don't' condescend, and realize that I know, that I can tell when something is wrong with my car. They educate me about what's wrong and obviously tell me how much it's going to cost before they repair it, after my permission. So there are no surprises. I am usually been able to get appointments pretty quickly and the staff has been very friendly.
Description of Work: It had something to do with the car axles. It was serious work.

I called in mid-August for an appointment in September. You have to call a few weeks ahead of time because they are busy. I scheduled the state inspections and routine maintenance. For routine maintenance, we had the oil and filter changed and they checked the fluid levels, lights, etc. Everything went very well. In addition, they did some work for us that was provided at no charge and we didn’t even ask to have it done. Several years ago, one of our wheel covers came off and it broke some plastic tabs that hold the wheel cover to the wheel. Rather than buy a new wheel cover, I used wire to attach the wheel cover to the wheel and removed the wheel cover when I took the car in for our yearly inspection and maintenance. This last time they noticed that we didn’t have a wheel cover for one of the wheels and I said it was in the trunk and was broke. On their own, they got the wheel cover from the trunk and somehow repaired it so that it now fastens to the wheel. They didn’t charge us for doing this and I didn’t ask to have the work done. I really appreciated them for not charging us. That little act of kindness saves me a lot of work. We purchased our vehicle from Valley Honda 14 years ago and have been using their services for routine maintenance, inspections and special repairs during that time. The service department is knowledgeable and helpful. They answer my questions about maintenance and recommend services when they are required for our vehicle. They keep records of all the work that is preformed which is very useful and valuable to have. They don’t pressure customers into getting work done. I like to work with businesses like that. We will continue to use Valley Honda because of their excellent service. We have continued to use them for 14 years because of the great service they provide. I highly recommend Valley Honda.

They're wonderful. They do their job as quickly as they can. They are matter of fact ask about what else you might need. They explain every itemize detail in your bill. I really like Valley Honda and its right next door to the Italian bakery which is superb and ndash; exactly I sit over there and drink coffee and eat pastries (giggling) while waiting for my car job done.

Reviewed used Accords at all 4 major Pittsburgh area Honda dealers. Preferred the price and available cars at Valley Honda. I had with me a printed review of a used accord with stock number. There was confusion as I was shown another identical Accord that cost more and was a different, albeit very similar stock number. In the end we made a deal on the more expensive one and then once paperwork was started I had to be switched to the car I had originally wanted. I feel this was an honest mistake as the cars and numbers were so close. But I also feel it should have been caught sooner. That being said the staff was accommodating, knowledgeable, professional, and enduring. All-in-all a very nice place to buy a car!

Our daughter has her driver's permit, but the vehicles we presently own ( a mini-van and a Mercury Grand Marquis) do not lend themselves to effective parallel parking, etc. For this reason and the fact that we have been considering a more fuel efficient vehicle, led us to Valley Honda last week. A gentleman and sales consultant, Michael Black, whom we have spoken with before was not at the dealership when my wife and I visited, but we were assisted by another gentleman. (On each visit to this dealership, we were never hounded, but were permitted to shop-the-lot and then sought out the consultant with questions, etc.) We came back last Friday and Michael capably showed us the vehicles we were interested in. He was very knowledgeable about the features of the vehicles we looked at. We returned Saturday afternoon and continued our search of their Honda Civic used inventory. We had a test drive and decided to purchase a 2011 Civic. In that it was close to closing time, we arrived at a price, with little hassle. I returned Monday morning to complete the deal and as stated above, that was also a very quick and efficient process. While it is too soon to comment on how satisfied we are with the car purchased; we can emphatically state that this was the most pleasant car purchase either of us have encountered. Everyone we met was very friendly and knowledgeable.
Description of Work: Today we purchased a used Honda Civic from Valley Honda of Monroeville, PA. It was a non-pressure event, for which my wife and I are grateful. We were very impressed with the low-key approach of the sales consultants we spoke with. When I returned to the dealership today to actually make the purchase, I was equally impressed with Eric Woodmancy, the Finance Manager. He was extremely efficient and personable.

Dealing with Valley Honda and the damage there was to a brand new vehicle was a complete nightmare that took up three weeks of my husband's and my life. Not once did any employee or manager apologize for any of the problems.
Description of Work: On June 30th my husband and I went to Valley Honda and purchased a 2011 Honda CRV. Valley Honda told us that due to the tsunami in Japan, the vehicle would not be in until August. On August 1st, my husband called and spoke to our salesman who said the vehicle was made and would be available for pick up a few days later. We never heard from them. In late August, I saw that Valley Honda had a blue 2011 CRV in their inventory. Concerned it was our car I called and spoke to another salesman named Craig and inquired about it. He told me they did have that particular vehicle, however, "these people put a deposit down on it, but that doesn't mean anything." I then informed him that I was the one who put the deposit on the car. He panicked, placed me on hold, and came back to say that wasn't our particular car. He said our car hadn't been made yet (although we were already told it had) and that we would be contacted when it came in. I called and left a voicemail for their sales manager Steve Werksman and said that I would appreciate it if he would return my call because I was going to go to another dealership. He called me one day later and said the vehicle was in. Thus the nightmare began. After signing the financing forms our salesman took my husband and I out to show us where it was parked. He handed us the keys, did not show us how anything worked, and told us he didn't appreciate us calling his manager to inquire why our car was taking so long to come in (had he returned our calls, we wouldn't have had to call his manager). He said he took it very personally, told us to enjoy our vehicle and walked away. Not wanting to be involved in any further confrontations, we left with the car with out looking it over. When we got home we looked over the vehicle and found it to be covered in scratches both on the inside and out. There was also a chip on the outside along with a chip on the inside near the gearshift. I called immediately to inform them of the problem and was told to come back and let them look at it. I called and spoke to the service manager Dale Callander who referred me to another sales manger. The sales manager, whose name is Andy Sperber, called me back the next day. He was very hostile and said all new vehicles come this way. I asked that he replace the car with a new CRV and he laughed saying that that was an unreasonable request. I asked him to take the vehicle back and he said no that that as well. He said all they were willing to do was look at the vehicle and try to fix it. I told him a brand new car should not need bodywork. He then told me that if I went through any other avenues to deal with this situation, "We would get no where." I called Honda corporate and they said there was nothing they could do because all dealerships are privately owned. We took the vehicle back and informed Andy that in additional to the body damage on the inside and out, and that our power locks were also not working properly. We told him they worked Saturday, stopped working on Sunday, and didn't start working again until Tuesday evening. His response was "are they working now?" We said yes. He then said, "Well, how do you expect me to fix something that isn't broken?" I told him to please at least look at them since it seemed to be an issue with a bad fuse. He repeated again, "how do you expect me to fix something that isn't broken?" Andy placed tape all around the vehicle where the damage was at and said that if he did this for every new vehicle he sold his service department wouldn't be able to keep up. When I informed him that this was the third new vehicle I've owned and I've never had this problem he laughed at me. Andy gave us a loaner vehicle to use and told us he would call the next day, September 14th, to let us know how everything was going. A week later we finally heard back. When we went to pick up the vehicle, it looked even worse. They did a sloppy job trying to fix the large chip on the molding of the driver's side door; there were new scratches, and a new nick on the dashboard. The molding had a shiny material placed on it, it looked like it was buffed, and before it was dry one of their technicians must have swiped it with his fingernail. And after the mess they made, the chip was STILL THERE! I refused to take the vehicle. Another salesman told me that there was no manager there that day for me to speak with. When I informed him that I was not leaving until I spoke to one, Dale the service manager appeared. I guess he was there after all. He told me if they attempted to fix the chip any further it would just continue to look worse. My husband and I left the vehicle there again and demanded it be fixed properly. A day later I called and asked to speak to the owner and was told he wasn't available. I asked for his voicemail and was told it hadn't been set up yet. I asked when he would be back and was told they didn't know, that he was in Florida. My husband spoke to their general manager Steve Werksman and told him that the whole thing was a nightmare and how their staff acted very rude, hostile, confrontational and disrespectful to both him and I. Steve did not offer an apology. To add insult to injury, my husband said that it might be nice for them to upgrade the radio or speakers to try and make up for what they've done. Steve said NO, and added, “I am not going to just give money away.” Honda corporate is just as bad and would not accept any responsibility for anything. They brushed me off and were rude at that. Finally, we again drove an hour away from our home to pick up the vehicle. The vehicle IS STILL DAMAGED!! There is still a large scratch on the hood, two more on a door, front bumper damage, several other scratches on the inside and out and the headlights need replaced due to there being gouge marks on them. This is a brand new car that has already needed bodywork, repainted and the dashboard ripped out and replaced. I have to pay out of pocket hundreds of dollars to fix the car properly! PS: When my husband picked the car up, Andy approached him and very nastily said, “The second you leave today your car is going to get scratched up. Now give me the keys to my car back (the rental they gave us) so I can go look IT over for damage.” Stay away from Valley Honda in Monroeville, PA unless you want to have to live through a nightmare with your brand new car.

My husband took the car in as it indicated the oil needed changing, plus we are preparing for a cross-country trip in 2 weeks. I reminded him that the rubber on the back windshield wiper was visibly hanging down on both sides of the blade and to please have it changed for our trip. When he came home, I noticed that it looked the same and I asked him about it. He said he forgot to ask, BUT the 19-point check that Valley Honda promises notes that they check all windshield wipers. Obviously, they did not check this one. So we called today and they told us that we could bring it back in and pay to have it replaced. We live about 12 miles away, and it is a trek to take the car out there, so we asked if they would replace it for free to account for the gas and time required to make a return trip, when they should have noticed this if they had checked all that they said they did. They refused. Besides the time and cost a return trip would require, I am also concerned about what else they did not check as promised. We will probably just buy a replacement blade somewhere closer and put it on ourselves, but I am very frustrated with their lack of accountability and poor customer service. This is not the first time we have had problems with them for the care of this car that we purchased from them. We purchased a tire warranty with the new car and yet they charged us for repairing a tire (which they refunded when we later pointed it out to them). However, they inadequately repaired that tire, which meant another drive out there a week later, and they offered nothing to account for the gas money and time a second trip required. They trumpet their service, but our experience has not shown this to be merited.
Description of Work: We took our car (purchased from Valley Honda) in for an oil change. It is listed as express oil change and 19-point check, which says it includes a check of the brakes, tires, external lights, windshield wipers and washer nozzles, battery condition, coolant, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and power steering fluid, among other things.

It was the best used car purchase experience I've ever had by orders of magnitude. They were upfront about the vehicle and gave me a fair price according to blue book and other sources. They had no problem with letting me take the car to my own mechanic, who agreed with everything Valley had told me. It's been more than 7 months since I bought the car and I'm still very happy with them. They keep in touch and remind me of free inspection service.

They are the best amongst all the Honda dealers I dealt with. People at the service department are very good in dealing with customers. They have a shuttle service in case your car is in for repairs or service. They drop you to a location of your desire and pick you up as well. I never had issues with their services nor have I taken my car back to them for the same reason. They are a little expensive than the other repairers but, the quality of service is excellent. I will continue to use their services in future.

We were not pleased with the dealer.
Description of Work: The car broke down on the highway and was towed to the dealer. The dealer charged us $95. to prepare an estimate for repairs. The estimate was outrageously high. We had the car transferred to an independent repair shop which did an excellent job for 2/3 of what the dealer estimated, a savings of more than $500.
