New Kia Sorento!
Christine R.

Kateryna is an excellent salesperson and a pleasure to work! She helped my parents get their new Kia Sorento! She was patient, friendly and attentive, explaining everything clearly and moving the process along quickly with Anthony in finance. The test drive and explanation of how everything works were super helpful and she is fun and personable to be around!

Updated Seniors-BUYER BEWARE, deceptive practices with price, bonuses, trade in value and interest rates. Do not take the bonuses, go in prepared with the Kelly Blue Book prices on the one you want to purchase and the one you are trading in. If they don't come down, walk... I I was told by the concierge and salesperson they were offering 0% interest. Sales manager and finance guy slipped in 6.25% neither explained the terms of the contract, just sign, sign, sign. Traded a 2023 KIA Sorento 5300 miles they gave me $26,050 Kelly Blue Book $30,240 Purchased 2025 Telluride $49630, Kelly Blue Book $41763 Extended service contract quoted $3184 he failed to mention the additional $222 in tax. Anything paid on a credit card they add 3%. They listed my trade in as Kelley Blue Book as $31580, then best price $30916 saying you are getting a $664 savings. NOT When I complained they offered to give me the 0% but then GM said the price of the vehicle would be more sales manager in background said 48,000+. I paid it off. My family has purchased 10 vehicles from Crown and haven't had an issue like this. Not worth the aggravation. I won't go back.

Poor finish work
Jonathan P.

We were forced to sign for the vehicle before even seeing the repair they said " we have other people interested" justin said the work wasn't done right he agreed it was poor quality and offered to unwind the deal. My wife is an icu nurse she needed a vehicle I said let me see what it'll cost me to get done right before we unwind the deal and he agreed and after I got a quote 2days later he declined on taking it back. Vinny you have my number if you want to make it right.

Our first Kia

I have to say that this was one of the best car buying experiences ever, second only to the time I was able to lease a car completely online years ago and only went to the dealer to sign the paperwork. Everyone knows how bad traditional car buying can be, but Tony Scopacasa at Kia made it a true breeze. I let him know early on that I wanted to do as much of the paperwork and process online, which he was able to facilitate. He proactively had the cars we wanted to test drive ready for us on arrival, and was totally no-pressure. He even ran in the rain to go get an umbrella to save my wife from the downpour! Well done Tony and Crown Kia for our first Kia, and for making this as pleasant as possible!

Terrible work

A young single mother, raising a son with muscular dystrophy, reportedly spent $10,000 on a vehicle that became inoperable within just two weeks. When she returned seeking assistance, she was allegedly told she would need to pay an additional $4,000 for another vehicle rather than receiving meaningful support or accountability. This story, now circulating on TikTok, raises serious questions about ethical business practices and the treatment of vulnerable consumers. Businesses that serve the public have a responsibility to operate with transparency, fairness, and integrity--especially when dealing with families already facing significant challenges. Rather than responding with hostility, the community should focus on lawful and constructive action: documenting complaints, reporting concerns to consumer protection agencies, organizing peaceful demonstrations if appropriate, and encouraging public awareness so others can make informed decisions. Accountability is essential in maintaining trust within any community.

If you are looking for a seamless car-buying experience, I highly recommend Crown Honda…read more Alen provided incredible service, accommodating our schedule by FaceTiming me to do a comprehensive walk-around of our Honda Pilot TrailSport before we even arrived and took the time to further ensure we were happy with the vehicle when we arrived at the dealership. When it was time to close the sale, Dali stepped in and was a true professional. He made the financial wrap-up efficient and ensured the vehicle was perfectly detailed and fueled up before handing over the keys. Alen and Dali both made this a zero-stress, easy, purchase! Thank you Crown Honda for the amazing experience!

Another review had the same thing happen to them a month ago: They deliberately unscrewed several of the tire wheel lug bolts (a couple were missing) so that you would come back the next day after an oil change here thinking there was something wrong with the car and they quoted $2700 to fix it. There is nothing wrong with the vehicle before the oil change. As we left from the oil change, not too far away, the car felt a little wobbly like the tires were going to come off. It was kind of very scary, we had to pull over almost got into a car accident. We went to get a second quote elsewhere the auto body place at the second quote noted that there would be no reason for the lug bolts to be this loose & even couple missing and they asked us where we had our last car service and we told them it was at Crown Honda for oil change. Which they confirm Crown has shady business practices to gauge money out of their customers. This really confirms this place is an extremely shady place. The trauma thinking something was severely wrong with the vehicle. We were very scared. We will never be bringing a vehicle there ever again OR to any Crown owned dealership. We will never bring them to a CROWN dealership ever again. Once we got the lug bolts tightened at the 2nd auto-body place where we got the second quote there has been no issues with the car so this proves that Crown Honda is extremely a very shady place. All the car needed was lug bolts tightened, and a couple new ones put on because there were two randomly missing after we left for an oil change at this very shady Crown dealership. The second place only charged us for the two lug bolts that were missing. Not $2700. BEWARE. SCAM ARTISTS WORK HERE.

Repeat customers are the surest sign that the company treats its customers well! We bought a beautiful old BMW convertible and it is a great pleasure to drive. We chose the hard-top convertible so we could drive w the top down when we're cruising up or down Gulf Blvd in the barrier islands. They were giving the car its final detailing & discovered the front brakes were worn and a tire had a nail in it near the rim where it can't be repaired. They installed new front brakes & new tires before they'd release the car to us. We had already paid for it, yet they didn't charge us extra for these fixes. That's commitment to their stated business principles!! We'll definitely be back. They say what they mean, and mean what they say. Straight dealing. How refreshing!! Nice folks, too, a pleasure to work with!

We traded our vehicle with one from Genuine Motorcars. Their ad indicated that their vehicle was…read more"certified" and in excellent condition. We dealt with the owner, Jim DiGuiseppe, who also assured us that their vehicle was inspected and there were absolutely no issues with it! Being out of state, we purchased their vehicle based their assurances - a big mistake! Before shipping our trade vehicle to them, we had it detailed, filled the gas tank, and included all the receipts and documents with our car. However, they didn't even put enough fuel in their car so we could drive it to a gas station after picking it up! On the way to get fuel, the car died due to lack of fuel, stranding us! The owner told us that he had a buyer for our car and we agreed to the trade at over $40,000 loss. Upon receiving our vehicle, it was listed on the dealer's site for sale at $10,000 over what was given to us in trade! A total misrepresentation! Regardless, we hope that they'll be able to profit from selling our vehicle. We immediately noticed many issues with the vehicle: altered and inoperative speedometer, missing keys, missing the wind deflector and missing battery charger. Old engine oil, broken dipstick neck, clogged air filters, bald tires, damaged wheels, severe shakes, numerous rattles, and etc. We brought all these to the owner's (Jim DiGuiseppe) attention immediately. He promised that he would look for the missing keys, but he never provided them! Later, he refused to accept any responsibility claiming that he sold the car "AS IS"! He also accused us with trying to coerce him to compensate us in exchange for a good review! All we asked him was if he would cover some of the unexpected and hidden repairs so we wouldn't include them in this review. Photos of the speedometer and the tire attached. So far we have spent over $4,300 and anticipate to spend another almost $16,000, totaling over $20,000 on the car that the dealership and the owner, Jim DiGuiseppe, claimed to be certified and in perfect condition! We are planning to file a complaint with the Florida Department of Highway Safety & Motor Vehicles, Bureau of Dealer Services. No dealership should be able to sell a vehicle with dangerous and unsafe tires and altered speedometer, among other issues! These are what we have spent so far on their supposedly perfect vehicle! - Replacing the missing keys; $ $1,752. - Repairing 3 wheels; $ 420. - Balancing the wheels $88. - Tires; $757. - Alignment $250. - Oil/filter change: $550. - Air filters: $200. - Missing battery Charger, $210. - Battery connector cable: $94. - Dipstick neck: $18. Ongoing anticipated repairs and replacements: - Wind deflector: $8,083. - Instrument cluster:$6,720, plus $975 labor. - Checking and correcting door rattles by removing door panels: $800 to $1,200. - Other possible issues... To the future buyers from Genuine Motorcars, do not take their words and their ads about the condition of their vehicles! UPDATE: The dealer responded that the car was inspected and not an "AS IS" vehicle!, coming with engine and drive train warranty. We had no problem with drivetrain or engine. If the car was actually inspected, how could they have possibly missed the bald tires and stuck speedometer? We immediately sent the photos of the above to the dealer, but Jim DiGuiseppe's response was that the car was sold "AS IS" and refused to accept any liabilities! Why would anyone replace good tires and clean engine oil, or repair good wheels, cause rattles, and replace clean air filters? If he actually paid for inspection, he should demand a refund. We have receipts for all these and other repairs and replacements. Please see the photos we sent him right after the purchase showing a bald tire and the speedometer stuck on 60 mph when the car is parked! We have purchase many vehicles from out of state. However, we never had any issues with any of them except with our last purchase from this dealership, Genuine Motorcars and the dishonest owner/manager Jim DiGuiseppe. They clearly sold us a LEMON for over $116,000!
