We got a letter from them, that says whenever your least term is over We will give you the same car with no down payment with the same or even less than what we are paying RightNow. Drove 60 minutes back and forth. However they didn't honor what they promised us. It was just a waste of time. read more

Service~~~~ First Honda does a great job with their oil change full synthetic for $46.99. I appreciate Brad for always keeping it simple checking on things I need. They always ask before working on something such as a air filter change or if the tires need to be rotated. I appreciate the honesty and keeping it simple. Greg the manager is great I think it really starts with him. At first they left one air cap off on my tire he offered to mail a cap to Santa Barbara. Mistakes happen and offering something to fix it is what I truly appreciated. 1) oil change price is great 2) service is simple and honest 3) they offer to wash the outside of your car Ofcourse it's your regular dealership service department but simple things are at good prices. I really recommend it for your monthly/ yearly routine fixes for this place if you have Honda and maybe other vehicles. Thanks Greg for keeping your service department good, simple, honest, and efficient. read more

I called this location to see if they had windshield wipers in stock for my car and the man that answered said "Yes we do! They're $15" I thought that was a GREAT price, I decided I needed tires and a couple of other stuff for my car. Once I arrived a nice man took me to straight to the parts location! I was waiting in line for a bit because the older cashier was helping someone. Once he was done helping that customer, he told me to "hold on", which I understand but once I saw him just talking to one of his coworkers it upset me a bit because I thought it was something important, even his coworker kept telling him he could wait until after lunch and the older cashier just kept walking around talking to other coworkers. I was waiting for about 15 minutes after he told me to "hold on" I got upset and walked away. I never once got to tell him what I needed, guess I'll go spend my money somewhere else since they made it seem like my time isn't important. read more

Just went to upgrade my lease Albert is a great sales car person its always great to work with and come to an agreement would highly recommend going to him for any car needs. read more

Great service! Dean and Jose were very helpful and honored my wishes to get in and out of the dealership with minimal contact due to COVID. I called ahead and Dean got my car ready to go. Jose helped me with my application and ensured my car had a full tank of gas and was charged up before I left the lot. I'd say the application and signing process took no more than 20 minutes. The facility was really clean and ample parking in front. I've been to other dealership where finding a spot was harder than looking for Waldo. Everyone was spread out with sanitizing stations throughout and I noticed staff using hand sanitizer so I felt relatively safe. Overall, I had a very pleasant experience and would absolutely go back to purchase my next Honda. read more

To all of my Friends from the valley and all over, make the drive out to my side of town Simi Valley!! A HUGE shoutout to the whole Honda team/family!!!! I have ONLY done business at First Honda since 2012, from my leases to owning. I've had nothing but amazing customer service from every worker here. Even when I've brought my car(s) in for oil changes, hands down the best team of workers. However, today's experience was off the charts! Dean is Bomb.com!!!! He is the man!!! Along with Alberto, Dean totally put a smile on my face today by helping me bring home my new baby 2020 HR-V. Thank you Dean, thank you Albert and Richard for making my dream come true in owning my very first Honda HR-V. It is an amazing upgrade from my traditional Honda Civics- which will always have a special place in my heart. read more

Good services and professional. Right on time as promised. I will go back to buy a SUV from them due to their good service

The staff here was great. salesman was informed and encouraged me to drive several vehicles until I found the one that was perfect for my needs. I came in looking to buy a used car, but ended up purchasing a new one. The manager gave my a very fair price for my trade and we made at great deal on a new 2020 Accord. Once the deal was made finance had me out of there fast. Very happy with this dealership would recommend to anyone. read more

Go here for your next Honda. They've got the best prices and if you ask for Reka Potocska she'll treat you well and get you into something you're happy with. I went to this dealership multiple times as I tried to find the vehicle that made the most sense for me and Reka was always patient, more than willing to help, and never pressured me to run credit or start the buying process till I was ready. She would follow up with me only at my request and always made me feel like a valued customer. Don't go to Honda of Thousand Oaks, their prices and customer service are atrocious compared to what you can get at First Honda. Reason for 1 star deduction: my new car had a couple little scratches on it that weren't able to be buffed out. However, the dealership agreed to get them fixed at the body shop at no cost to me. It took them a little longer than expected so it was kind of a let down to not be able to drive my new car after buying it. However, Reka made sure they put me in a nice rental at no cost to me until my new car was ready to be picked up. Also, while we were negotiating, the sales manager attempted to back track once a deal had already been shaken upon. However, Reka fought for me on the original deal with him and I made it clear I'd walk if the original deal wasn't honored so they stuck with the original deal. In the end it all worked out at a great price and Reka was awesome. If I ever need another new car, I'd go back to Reka in a heart beat! read more

Where to begin? I called in 3 times regarding an "Ad Car". Confirmed availability, price, etc. showed up to get my mom a car. So far so good...got our bottle of water, test drove, and then we sat down to start what should have been a simple process. Ryan Lewis appears to review the numbers. Shockingly, the numbers are $30 more a month a than what was previously discussed. Apparently there are accessories on EACH and EVERY vehicle sold at this dealership. You know, the stuff NOBODY cares about, paint protection, and very thin plastic moldings for the door edges? Sounds completely legit right? It's certainly $1000 of worthless stuff. Sound like a Seinfeld episode yet? Obviously, I'm frustrated, and said that's not what was discussed on the phone. Ryan Lewis response, "well if you read the ad". I said give me one without the "accessories". Sorry, we don't have one, they all have these base accessories. So, basically, your ad was advertising a vehicle and price that doesn't exist? Ryan Lewis again "well if you read the ad". Shouldn't the ad and price reflect the actual cars on the lot? Your ad is just there to get people in the door and the price changes as soon as you get here? Ryan Lewis again "well if you read the ad". 3 TiMES I was told to "read the ad". At this point I lost my S@#%. Get me someone else in here to talk to, this conversation is going nowhere. In comes Chris Lee, with my pricing paper all crumpled up and sits down in a huff. Basically, he sticks up for his guy and says the deal they now presented to me is the best they can do. As I'm talking to him about the pricing and trying to reason with him about the situation. He had the ACTUAL nerve to look at my wrist and notice my Rolex and say (no lie) "is that a real Rolex on your wrist? Birthday present, gift?". Why in the hell does it matter what I'm wearing and where it came from. I'm negotiating a deal for my mom. I came in to this dealership assuming there was integrity behind the phone and people I was dealing with. Apparently, this dealership looks at what you're wearing, and decides that's how they are going to price and treat you. I know it's a huge shock that a car dealership deceived its customer and treated us poorly. Does it get any shadier than this? I don't think I've experienced two more unprofessional people than Ryan and Chris, and the best part is they work together. Do they not know "good cop", "bad cop"? We got "bad cop" and "worse cop". BUYER beware. You WILL be told one thing on the phone and something else in person, you WILL be judged on your appearance, you WILL get deceived, and last but not least, you WILL be treated VERY unprofessionally. Good luck! read more

I've been leasing Honda's for almost ten years now, and always used to go to the Thousand Oaks location. They've screwed me quite a few times, especially while getting my most recent lease. So- I decided to go to Simi for my A1 Service today. I came in asking if I was in the right spot since I hadn't been here before and don't want to go back to TO. They immediately treated me amazingly, let me know some things that TO had CLEARLY been doing wrong and mistreating customers on (such as a first free service depending on where mileage is at.... I've always paid in TO. always.). As I sat down in the waiting room another Service guy came to verify my address and was just incredibly sweet. About 15 minutes after that, the Service Manager came over to introduce himself to me. I'm seriously blown away by this amazing customer service, especially knowing that this is an extremely difficult job and they deal with a lot of angry customers. Seriously appreciate my time here today, and will forever be coming back to this location from now on. Can't say enough good things!! read more

Albert and Bob are AMAZING! this was my second car from First Honda and each time, the process was seamless and quick. Albert reached out a few weeks before and worked with me until the very day I got my vehicle. He explained everything and made sure I walked away receiving everything I wanted. Bob and Albert worked together to make sure I was able to seal the deal and communicated with me each step of the way. There was a delay in the process, but they ensured I would received the car I wanted and reserved it for me. I would recommend them endlessly. They are the epitome of customer service and guidance. read more

Really bad service, traded in my vehicle years ago with them. 2 years later I'm receiving letters that my vehicle was never paid off entirely.

Took my car in for a service, and John Flanagan was my service advisor. Firstly, I'd like to say that even though the dealership was super busy, he took the time to greet me and ensure he knew what I needed. John didn't try to upsell anything to me (which often happens when I take my car into a dealership for a service). He was honest about what was needed, and provided me with all the information needed regarding the service. The service was performed fast and efficiently, and I will definitely be taking my car back to John at First Honda when I am in need of my next service. read more

I just wanted to thank the salesman and sales manager who worked so hard to make a deal for my son. Hours went by. Finally came to a decision but my son passed on it. ( he bought a older used car ). But I tell you that was a great deal on that 2018 Mazda. We have purchased many cars from them and we have taken Good friends to them who bought cars. You can't go wrong with 1st Honda. Wonderful patient sales staff. read more

Broke the release handle on my honda pilot and they won't take responsibility. Asking me $400 for something they broke.

Went in today to look at leasing a Clarity. Jose was very helpful, informative and knew the product very well. Unfortunately after I waited for a long time on a quote, I approached Jose who was at the managers' desk, where an extremely rude man behind the desk asked me in an incredibly rude tone what I was doing there and why I was "staring at him." He then ripped a piece of paper with an extreme motion, and proceeded to give me an attitude while I was only wanting an update on a quote that I've been waiting an excessively long time for. My best friend is an internet fleet manager at another dealership, and I've leased many cars in the past. I've never had such a bad experience in all my years. Whoever that "manager" was behind the desk just cost the dealership a client. I was ready to get a car and sign today, but they can thank him for that. I'll also be notifying Honda Corporate of this, I hope he gets counseled for speaking to a potential client like that. read more

Came here to get an oil change for the first time, walked in and nobody asked if I'd been helped yet. The guys at the front office were definitely on the rude side and not welcoming at all. Horrible costumer service. read more

Sales guy super cool and not pushy. Service advisor John is as nice as they come. No one enjoys taking their car in for service but John makes it a pleasant experience. This is definitely one of the coolest dealerships I've experienced. read more

I'll give back the star. Why? I am remiss in taking so long to write this, but the owner, Darrell called me to apologize for my treatment and bought me a new tire! (well, he sent me a check for the money I spent at TO Honda.) THAT tells me that I had a one-off experience and, at least some, really do care about being "The Helpful Honda People". I'll see y'all at my oil change and we'll go from there. Fair enough? Thanks, Darrell for caring!! read more

It is usually quicker to just make an appointment in person. I have been put on hold and forgotten many times. I made an appointment 2 weeks ago for an oil change and tire rotation. I arrive on time and told my car will be ready in 4 hours. WTF!!! Four hours for an oil change and rotation? Service guy says they are really busy. I thought that's why I have an appointment. F*ed up my whole day. If I have any simple maintenance to do I will go to Jim's Tire or an oil change place. read more

Go see Johann to purchase your next vehicle. He's a great car salesman! He continually shocked me with his knowledge of the vehicles and had me laughing at his silly jokes the whole time. He was straightforward and kind and really helped steer me towards a vehicle that was a good fit. I never once felt pressured by him. Juan Sanchez was also wonderful, very radiant personality and kind even during the negotiation process. :) Overall everyone was very friendly and it was the most positive car buying experience I've had. We came too late in the evening to score some donuts and snacks but I'll be back. ;) read more

Don't just take it from me, but go ahead and look at other reviews. DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT BRINGING YOUR HONDA TO 1st HONDA, UNLESS YOU LIKE BEING TAKING ADVANTAGE OF; PAYING OUT OF POCKET LIKE A COPAY; AND OR JUST WANT TO END UP BEING MISERABLE- Took my 2019 accord for a normal recall, my first recall I have been a part of- I had just finished washing my car so they can work on a clean vehicle, dried properly like always so there's no interruption between my camera & radar- Seems like the tech tried to take off the radar cap, which I didn't even know about no cap, the bracket was broken and there telling me it's going to cost a mere $1600. I found that funny cause when I was drying my car that radar was as solid as a rock- They ask me to just call my ins. and process a claim like it's nothing- These techs & service advisors work together to maximize there invoice cost wise, in order to have a high percentage of $ brought in per vehicle to hit there monthly bonuses- Meaning, low invoice, low $ to dealer, no bonus or you get written up by management- I've been in the auto industry for 27yrs and I hate to admit that- But here at 1st Honda, it's way out of control- They see you have a lil money, and they think they hit the lottery on you, even for a damn recall- AVOID THIS DEALERSHIP, OR MONEY PIT AT ALL COST!!! And read what other consumers have gone through- Good luck everyone, sorry for ranting on, but you all deserve to know read more

What a wonderful experience time and time again First Honda Service Center has provided. Ever wanted to be treated like a Lamborghini owner without being out the $500k price tag? Insert Don the service manager. Don and his team of experts make every service so seamless. They are beyond helpful and accommodating. He has gone above and beyond for my whole family and I have never recommended a service center before. I cannot express my gratitude for how well they have treated my mother and myself. What a wonderful team and it all starts with Don's All Star management! Keep up the great work as I am now a First Honda customer for life, and I know where all my referrals will go!! read more

We found the car we had been looking for at the Simi Valley Honda and Thanks to Albert Rodriguez and Dean Quashen, the process was soo smooth.. we got the deal we wanted and more.

What can I say about Johann David. He went above and beyond with helping me out with my 2021 accord EX-L hybrid home screen. With all the updates we get with our phones and cars are pretty much computers, my car didn't link with my phone and caused my entire apple car play screen to freeze and I could no longer do anything!!!! I went to First City honda and talked with service department first, Don. He was unable to fix it and got Johann to further assist me. It took Johann about 10-15min (he did have to do a factory reset) but after he did that and a few other things, my screen and all came back up and starting working again. I heavily rely on using the apple car play GPS so this was very crucial for me to have working. Then, on top of that, he showed me some tricks and mentioned to me about Honda Link which my original sales guy (Keys in Van Nuys) did not tell me about. Wow!!! This guy is a Jem and knows his stuff. I'll be going back again and referring as many people as I can to Honda. Everyone should go and see Johann!!! read more

EDIT: Got our brand new 2018 Honda Civic at GALPIN and had the greatest experience. GO TO GALPIN, DONT BOTHER WITH FIRST HONDA. I wish I could give 0 stars. Worst experience at a car dealership, ever. Not only were we not helped upon getting there, we got stuck with this man (he was wearing a black jacket over his shirt so I couldn't read his name) who did NOT want to sell us a car while we desperately need to get one at the best rate we can. We were then thrown to salesman Juan Sanchez who definitely gave the impression that he was barely willing to show us several lease options. The service here is poor and it's a shame because I would love to support a Simi business, but I will never recommend this dealer to anyone or be back. read more

The worst, most stereotypically slimy car buying experience. I know exactly what I want, we have a 2014 Odyssey and want a new 2018/19 Odyssey in the same color and package. Spoke to the internet sales manager on the phone several times. Told him exactly what we wanted and made an appointment for a week later to come see the car and make a deal. Confirmed the appointment - twice. Told him what we wanted both times. He told me even if they don't have the exact car in stock we can run the numbers, make a deal and get it via dealer trade. Showed up and was told the guy I had an appointment with wasn't there and was told to talk to Juan. Juan was there but handed me off to another sales guy, who toured me all over the lot and to remote lots "looking for the car I wanted," which I'm fairly sure is a tactic since they can check inventory on the computer in about 30 seconds. They didn't have the vehicle we want in stock, but the sales guy says they can dealer trade for it, but that if we do that I "have to take an extra $2k in accessories, I have no choice that's how it works with dealer trades." I tell him I'm not sure about that but we can discuss it. We sit in his cube and he goes to get Juan again. Juan comes back and asks if I found a car I like. I tel him no, and that I've been clear since I made the appointment a week ago what I was looking for. He says to try and find something on the lot. I tell him that's not what we want, and that his other guys when I made the appointment and the guy that toured me around say they could get one from Another dealer. He says "we don't dealer trade, you'll have to find something on the lot." No Juan... I won't. What I "have" to do is never do business with your dealership for wasting my time. I'm not cross shopping other brands, I already want the top of the line model, and I'm willing to use Honda financing. This would have been an easy deal for them except they wasted my time and were disrespectful and slimy. In 2018 there are better ways to do business then this. read more

I brought my mom here to buy a car and I never thought I would see such a huge smile on her face after leaving with a Civic Sport Hatch. She got exactly what she wanted and Michael Lenhart and Ryan Lewis made sure her car buying experience went as smoothly as it possible could. Everything from all the vehicle features, to the details of our contract was broken down professionally. We were pretty much in and out, for this was a very fast and pleasant experience. If you are looking to buy a Honda, make sure you go to First Honda and talk to Mike and Ryan! read more

I just purchased a new vehicle and was very impressed with the level of professionalism at this dealership. In particular, Albert Rodriguez was exceptional- friendly and very knowledgeable. He took me for a lengthy test drive, explained all the features in detail, answered all my questions and made sure I felt comfortable driving the car. There was absolutely no pressure to purchase the car, but once I made the decision, the purchase process was so efficient, it was completed in just over an hour! This was actually the most pleasant car buying experience I have ever had! read more
