WOMEN BEWARE! BUYER BEWARE!!! HUGE DEALERS NEED HUGE PROFITS TO STAY OPEN. THEY WILL SQUEEZE EVERY DIME FROM YOU! WOMEN BEWARE! Don't do it. Especially if you're a woman looking to buy a car and you're not bringing a male used-car-salesperson-destroyer with you to negotiate. I came in to look at cars because my a/c had gone out and my sister in Canada was in the hospital on her death bed. I needed a car pronto to get to her & they knew it. During test drive I mentioned to Steve P. that the a/c felt warm & humid, especially when idling. The first time I mentioned it, he completely ignored the statement. When I specifically asked him if the a/c felt warm to him, his response was "oh, it's monsoon season, so it just feels a little humid". IMO, after I'd called out the a/c feeling warm, he should've offered to have it serviced as part of the purchase transaction. My concern was not taken seriously, The 06 RSX was listed at $13k. When we checked KBB at the table, we saw a similar one for $9k, but it had slightly higher mileage. I asked if he could come down on the price a bit, but his reply was it's priced higher because of the mileage difference...& pushed the paperwork towards me to sign. I felt rushed. One of the biggest selling points that Steve kept hitting on was that Acuras hold their value, & even though he knew it wasn't the car I wanted, I'd be able to return in a year & purchase something better because of the equity I'd have. When going through contracts with the Finance Manager, I was offered gap insurance. Which means I was upside down in my loan & there would be no way I'd have trading power in a year, as Steve had so strongly advocated. I brought that up, & F Manager comment was, "we're all in the same boat". Steve rattled off some bs about how tax & registration should be taken out of the future deal, & I "would be okay". More sales jargon used on an unsuspecting and desperate woman needing a vehicle. Day after buying, I tried to drive to Canada to visit my sis, but a/c was blowing SO warm & humid that I was drenched in sweat. Brought the car back to Middletown for service, & I had to pay for a rental vehicle. Appreciated, but also inconvenienced me in 3 hs drive time and several hundred dollars! Later, the GM told me they " I never ever recommend driving long distances right away"........ Really? But you knew that's WHY I was buying it. So, your cars are sold unreliable? The same night I picked up the car, after a/c repairs, I got a flat tire. When I tried to call road side assistance as promised in my contract, they couldn't find me in system. I had no idea how to change tire. I put air in & drove 2 miles home, which ruined the it. Called next day & their first response was - "well, it didn't have flat when it was here". After raising hell, they sent a driver to put the donut on (I replaced tire with out of pocket cost of $175.) Putting costs aside, my safety is the real concern here. I could have been left stranded in the middle of the long drive through the desert on my way to CA with no roadside assistance. That scares me! The back windshield wiper was "replaced on PDI" while it was in the shop, as it was just flapping in the wind, but you would think the service department would also check the front blades. They were also worn, & did nothing but push water around, making it hard to see & unsafe... They said they were "replaced on PDI" Nothing like going that extra mile for customer satisfaction and delight. During the big rainstorm we had, all windows, doors, & sunroof were tightly closed, doors locked. When I got in next day, I noticed it smelled musty, & felt around for dampness. The floor behind the driver's seat had 3"of water in it. Even the small towel that was sitting on the floor next to it was soaked. I noticed the window tint on the driver's door is peeling off now, & wondered if the water somehow caused that. Took it back & they told me they "ran it thru the car wash & found no leaks". They did replace body plugs, but guess I was just imagining all that water on my floor. I'd first spoken with another sales guy that called me about the RSX. I saw it online & noticed it looked like the paint was oxidized. I said would not be interested if that was the case. He assured me it wasn't & when I came in, I didn't see the damage. It apparently had been buffed out. However, the oxidation came back after a week & was very noticeable on the trunk. Brought it back in & they painted that portion. But, they dust got on wet paint & I will need to bring back AGAIN to have polished out. I feel I was sold a vehicle that was unreliable, my safety & well-being were disregarded & the car was brought to sub-par condition, in order to make a quick sale to an unsuspecting woman. NOT recommended at ALL. PLEASE DO NOT GO TO MIDDLETOWN HONDA! PLEASE DO NOT GO TO MIDDLETOWN HONDA! PLEASE DO NOT GO TO MIDDLETOWN HONDA! PLEASE DO NOT GO TO MIDDLETOWN HONDA! read more

I have to say I am beyond words right about now! I finally bought my own car today and I don't think that would have ever happened if I didn't meet Christian Diaz, who was my Sales Rep and Sean Curtis who was the financial person in charge that day. About 3 months ago I was really trying hard to get a car. I'm a single mom now and between my credit score not so good and having a financial hardship, I knew my chances were slim. I gave it a shot and probably went to 5 different car dealerships in the city before ever going to Middletown. Each one shot me down. It was either I had to put more money down or I needed a co-signed, of course I had neither of those. Eventually I just gave up. Just last week I went into Middletown Honda for a simple oil change on a different vehicle that belonged to my mother. I went up to the front desk and ask if they sold any preowned cars. That's when Chris stepped in. He is very polite and professional. I told him right off the bat, my credit is shot, I don't think I'll be able to qualify for anything. He told me that he would help me out, don't need to worry, he would get me into a car. I'm already thinking to myself, well I heard this before so it's most likely I'll be be turned down again but I gave it another go! I provided Chris with all of my information. Which was very simple and quick. Then I went to meet Sean Curtis. I talked to Sean and I explained my story to him and he knew exactly what I was going through. To me I felt that was my light at the end of the tunnel. Sean told me to give him a few days and said he would call me once he heard back. So I waited and a few days had passed and I didn't hear anything back, so I called yesterday and talked to Sean and he told me just him a couple of hours to hear back and within an half an hour Sean had called me back with some amazing news!! I was APPROVED for the car! I was shocked and happy at the same time. I couldn't believe it! Went back today and met with Chris again to do the paper work and that part was super easy and smooth plus the other two ladies were very helpful too (sorry I didn't catch their names, I was eying the car lol but thank you ladies) and within the hour I was off driving in my new car! I absolutely recommend Chris from Sales and Sean from Financial because they will definitely go above and beyond for you and take care of you. They truly care about helping people make a difference in their life. Thank you Chris and Sean and Middletown Honda for making it all happen.! read more

*this is a purchase review* I was looking to getting a new car. I've mainly driven Hondas so that's what I wanted to buy. I'd previously went to Morehead in Newburgh and was not happy with their lack of customer service at all. Since a few people recommended Middletown Honda, I decided to go. I was told to ask for Ed--his desk is right on left when you walk in. I am so glad he was working! The previous day, is been to Morehead, as well as another (non honda) dealership. Ed is the truth! Ed knows exactly what he's doing and knows EVERYTHING there is to know about the cars he is selling. He answered any and every question I had as well as my dad. If there was anything he didn't know (which was rare) he said, "I'm not 100% sure! but I can find out" He was very personable and friendly. Not pushy at all. I almost felt like he was my friend. My dad is the type of person that is very hard to please and he finds fault with everything, and he kept praising Ed. (If you knew my dad, you would know how rare that is from him to do with someone he doesn't know). The car I wanted wasn't at Middletown, so Ed had to go get it. He went to get the car that was the closest with the least amount of miles on it. As a 1st time new car buyer, I didn't know what to expect, but Ed went above and beyond what my expectations were. He wasn't aggressive or 'forceful'. He didn't try to sell me something that was outside of my preferred range. He didn't talk to me as if I were a child. He explained everything clearly. I think he even came in on his day off so he could be there when I picked up my car. (I love my car btw) Also I want to mention Joe C in the finance dept. He was awesome as well. He also didn't pressure me into anything, and let me know that it was possible that my bank would be the better option in terms of the apr. He even let me know what my credit score was. I knew the general range, but not the actual number. I went on thinking that I got the best quote from the bank, but it ended up being better through Honda. I am so glad I was referred to Middletown Honda by friends. I couldn't have made a better choice. If you're ever in need of a honda, make the trip to Middletown Honda, you won't be disapointed. read more

I can't say enough about the experience of leasing a new vehicle from Middletown Honda. I think under any circumstances they would have done a great job under the excellent management of Robin Goldin. But in my case, my car's engine blew half-way between home and vacation with my two children, our dog, and all our stuff. AAA towed my car to one of their approved repair shops, but repair was not in my best interest. I had to spend precious time sorting out what to do and looked everywhere in a 100 mile radius from where I broke down, but once I found Middletown Honda, it wasn't just the best deal: they made many of the hard decisions much easier. Robin took great care to connect me with the facts and information I needed, and the great staff he works with. Jorge helped me deal with getting my old car towed, offering to pay cash on arrival when, believe it or not, the towing place wouldn't take a credit card over the phone. They knew I was trying to salvage vacation with my family and handled every interaction with sensitivity, respect, and precision. Marlon, my salesperson, was fantastic! He kept a lookout for me as I found my way to the dealership for the first time, and from there he proved to be not only very knowledgeable, respectful and patient, but capable of turning a very stressful situation into a pleasant one. My brief interaction with Sean only added to that as finances were all in order. Marlon made sure I quickly learned what I needed to get me out and on the road to home with confidence. I would not only recommend Marlon and Middletown Honda to locals, but will be spreading the word that it is more than worth the trip! read more

First of all, I would like to say that I was absolutely dreading buying a new car. We had just bought my husband a Honda accord from Barton Chevrolet in Newburgh in October and the experience was absolutely DREADFUL!! But I had my heart set on a Honda Pilot, so I figured that I would go into Middletown Honda and see what happened. I was instantly met at the door by Ryan, who is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I explained to him what I was looking for, and he worked his magic to get me into an absolutely gorgeous 2015 Honda Pilot in the price range that I needed. He gave me more for my trade-in then the other dealerships were offering, and sat down and answered every single question without hesitation. Next step was to meet Joe C, the finance manager, who is an absolute Dream!! Not only did he not push me into buying something that I didn't need, but he was able to BEAT the low interest rate that I already had in place through my bank. My whole experience with him took less than an hour, and was phenomenal. I came in the next day to sign all of my final paperwork and was met by Ryan and introduced to Trent, the third man in the trifecta. All paperwork was signed within 20 minutes, and then Trent went over every detail of the car with me step by step and answered all of my questions. If you're looking to buy a car, this is truly a DREAM TEAM to deal with! I could not be happier! read more

***After my first incredible, no pressure experience with buying my 2015 CR-V at Middletown Honda, I would not go to any other dealer when I was ready for a trade-in! This review is the second I have written for Middletown Honda. I walked in and asked for CHRISTIAN DIAZ, the knowledgeable, warm, and professional salesperson who assisted me with my CR-V purchase. I test drove several cars of interest, actually waited for Chris to return from vacation a week later, and then returned to make my final decision. Christian patiently helped me weigh all my options in choosing which Accord to purchase, as well as various payment options with the lender of my choice. SEAN then explained warranty options and financing. JAMI, the Delivery Coordinator, sat in my new 2019 Accord 2.0 Sport with me and pleasantly reviewed all of the interior features and how to use them. After an absolutely no pressure, pleasant buying experience, I was thrilled to drive out of the Middletown Honda parking lot on the same day with my new Accord! I will continue returning to Middletown Honda to purchase vehicles and highly recommend that you at least check them out...I'm 99% sure you also will find your purchasing experience a pleasure! ****** read more

After much shopping around looking for another ev vehicle we reached out to Josie to who told us about the clarity. We had been wanting to go from our current plug in/gas vehicle to a full electric but she convinced us to check it out. After test driving the clarity and learning about all the fantastic features as well as a great offer from Ryan we were beginning to seriously consider the car. Ryan prepared everything for us just in case we decided the clarity was for us. After some more looking around at other vehicles and places we knew this was the right car. Ryan's preparation helped us to make the process quick and painless. We returned to trade in our old car where Damien helped us through the paperwork and answered all our questions and went over setting up the car so all our electronics worked and made a great safe environment. This was probably the best car buying experience we have had ever, from Josie advising us on meeting our needs, to Ryan showing us the ins and outs and allowing us to not have to sit in the dealership for hours with children, to financing giving us the best info and making it quick and easy to the final delivery and being fully integrated in the car. We will definitely be back. read more

My experience at Middletown Honda was amazing from the moment I sat down to talk with Marlon, I knew this was going to be good. Marlon Maurasse took the time to walk me through so much the first day and then passed me off to Sean Curtin. Sean took care of my financial needs and handled any concerns I had on that end. When I went to pick up my car today, I was greeted by Marlon and had a great conversation with him. Marlon took care of my kids, offering snacks and refreshments while they waited with me for the paperwork that Sean carefully drew up and made easy for me to understand. Jami Potis was busy with another customer but helped Raphael with the paperwork needed for me to be on my way. Jami, Marlon, and Sean worked together with Raphael who took the time to make sure I knew everything I was signing. Raphael and Marlon came out to my car and walked me through everything before I drove off of the lot. The team made me and my family feel welcome and because of people like Marlon, Sean, Jami, and Raphael, I will do business there again and send my friends and family to see them as well. Thank you. read more

ED.... OUR Household name! --- Head to Middletown Honda ----- ASK for ED. smile emoticon We had initially contacted Ed F by phone to discuss trading in our older Honda Accord and the options available to us obtaining a newer Accord. After just a little over 20 minutes of putting our minds at ease we arranged to meet Ed in person and take the next step forward. Oh, let me not forget... we were coming from Staten Island NY and went up to Middletown NY to seal a deal. Upon getting to Middletown Honda, Ed greeted us as a member of the family, we sat with him and went over all the options available and with his calm and informative demeanor we were now looking at a NEW 2016 Honda Accord Sport and setting the paperwork into motion. Ed, was very patient with us and went over all the questions we had and continue to have. He's not one of those dealers just wanting to push you into a deal that's going to break the bank or put you in the red. He will work with you and make sure that you as a customer are comfortable with your purchase. I highly recommend Ed to anyone looking to purchase a car.... read more

Middletown Honda is a great place to buy a car! Prepared to be bombarded with pushy salesman and double talk, we entered Middletown Honda and were pleasantly greeted by Art Anuszkiewicz. Art listened with sincere interest to our requests and quickly went to work. He found us a car that was the perfect fit and applied every discount to give us a great price on the lease. We took a test drive of the 2020 Honda CRV and loved the car. Art Anuszkiewicz made everything super pleasant and easy, after signing some paperwork we were out the door; happy and satisfied that we had gotten a car we loved at a great price. From Art our terrific salesman, to the friendly and efficient Finance Manager Brad A. to Chris G. who finalized our paperwork and patiently gave us a thorough tour of our new car and it's features, the experience at Middletown Honda couldn't have been better. If you are tired of sitting around in a dealership for a couple of hours haggling with a salesman who always has to check with the boss on the offer, go to Middletown Honda and ask for Art Anuszkiewicz you won't be disappointed. read more

I have been going to Middletown Honda for a few years now. It started when I needed my old 98 civic looked at, they were quick with an answer and honest with their evaluation of my car. Then a couple years ago it was time to buy a new car. I went to many dealers who had denied me, brushed me off, tried to make me jump through all these hoops to get a car. Then I walked into Middletown Honda. I was greeted by Jay who showed me a few options, we sat down, filled out some paperwork and were denied. Jay and his co-workers did not let me walk out the door. They gave me other options and crunched the numbers and by the next day I drove off in my new civic right in my payment range. Last week I called Jay to inquire about a CRV, after answering my questions and guiding me, I got to pick up my new CRV the other day and I couldn't be happier! Jay got everything done very smoothly so we were able to come in, sign and drive away within 30-45 minutes. I most definitely recommend a Honda to anyone, and I highly recommend going to Middletown Honda for one. Thanks Jay! See you in 3 years! read more

Amid all the really bad reviews I've seen on Yelp, I am happy to say that my experience with Middletown Honda was hassle-free and delightful. I had recently purchased a used car and was helped as soon as I walked through the door. The sales rep, Joshua, showed me cars that were in my price range; he didn't try to pressure me or show me anything not worth my time. I got to test drive the car and peek around as much as I wanted. Before I returned to fill out the paperwork days later, they kept me up to speed with all the information I needed to provide and informed me of any changes asap. The finance manager, Sean, got me a loan with a low rate which was awesome because my credit wasn't spectacular. And the delivery consultant, Samantha, made the paperwork process easy and explained each page , the details of my loan, and anything else I wasn't sure of. My car was even detailed and washed before I drove it home! Overall, I am extremely pleased with my purchase and the sales service I received. I would be happy to recommend anyone to this establishment. read more

My car was recently totaled. I am a single mother of one and a nurse. It's been impossible to get around. I went to Middletown Honda on 2/18 and left the same day with my beautiful Honda HR-V. Katia, my sales woman was so professional. She never made me feel forced as I have felt at other dealers in the past. She helped me quickly find the car that fits myself and my daughter so well. Sean in the finance department was an absolute GEM! He made me feel at home and quickly did what he had to do to get me approved and got me the best deal. Manny who finalized my sale showed me around my new car, got me used to all the features, explained my warranty and all that was included, and even helped pack all my heavy groceries into the trunk! Talk about grade A service! I recommend this team to anyone in the market for a new or used car!! The most important part about it all is that they made my shy 4 year old comfortable. She smiled the entire time and can't stop bragging about her new ride! Thank you again and I look forward to continuing my business here!! read more

I cannot say enough about the exceptional sales and service provided by Middletown Honda. My wife and I just purchased a certified used vehicle and we are thrilled with it. Our salesman, Chris was extremely knowledge with zero pressure applied. He allowed us to ask questions at our pace, and walked us through every step of the process. Super kudos to Brad who helped us with the financing. He was honest and disclosing on all details. His briefing on the was warranty options made it easy to understand and it helped us make the right choice. He even went up and above to give me some advice on another car loan I have. Who does that in 2019?! The car had a minor trim issue which I didn't even notice but the dealership was not satisfied it was up to standards. They scheduled me for a service appointment and they treated me like royalty when I came in for the work. I have another car, a Nissan, but after this experience, I see a trade-in in my future. If you are looking for a car, run don't walk to Middletown Honda. - Ross Terranova read more

Purchased a new car (HR-V Sport) from this dealership, after not having purchased a car since 2009. Everyone I know that drives Honda's traversed into NJ to purchase theirs, but I figured I'd try my local Middletown Honda dealership. I'm so glad I did. I first got the ball rolling with Josie via email. She was great, and answered all of my questions. Based on my dealings with her, I made an appt to test drive the car. Once I got there, Josie introduced me to Marlon, who was pretty good. He also answered all of my questions, and didn't pressure me into anything. So far so good. I really liked the car, liked the service this far, so I was feeling alright. The icing on the cake though? Sean from Finance. He was what actually sold me. He's funny, professional, and like me, he's a straight shooter. No BS. We took care of business, laughed, lamented about our football teams, and that was that. Basically, if you're looking for a Honda, do not hesitate to come to this dealership. They will take good care of you. Thanks, Middletown Honda! read more

After months of dreading the lease turn in process of our Mercedes Benz, and having another addition to our family, we needed a third row SUV. We looked at everything from the Mercedes G series, to the Hyundai Palisade, Kia Telluride, and the Honda Pilot. We contacted both Hyundai and Kia and they stated inventory was limited, and they would call us back the same day to let us know what was in stock before we visited, never heard back. Wife contacted Middletown Honda and had the same conversation except they said come on down we have a few Pilots in stock. Wife and I already knew Mr. Jason Scurville and felt reaching out to a friend couldn't hurt. He was beyond helpful, knowledgeable, and professional. He made it a breeze to do a lease buy-out and then lease a new Pilot. Jason, Robyn, Kevin and the whole team at Middletown Honda was great and we definitely recommend adding this to your places to visit when shopping for a new vehicle. His email is... jasonscurville@dealer-contact.net read more

Just bought a new 2019 Honda Pilot Ex-L. I started the new car search 6 weeks ago with a visit to the dealership. I had arranged to meet with Jay from the sales team. He fully accepted that I was just looking around and wouldn't be making any decisions that day. His friendly, no pressure approach is why I came back to this dealership. Jay arranged for fellow teammate, Chris to assist me when I stopped in w/o an appointment and he was helping another customer. Chris was professional, easy going and quick to respond to questions as was Jay. Once I selected my vehicle, Brad and Sean in the Finance department fully explained everything. These gentlemen, much like the salesmen, were easy to talk to and professional. Prior to leaving the dealership, I received a thorough walk through of all the Pilot's features from Jami. She explained and customized all possible settings to my preference. Overall, couldn't be happier with the purchase process! Will definitely recommend this dealership. read more

I was looking for new Honda Ridgeline and requested the quotes from several dealerships in my area. Most dealerships did not want to discuss the price remotely and requested to visit the dealership. So, I would need to take a day off and drive many miles just to see the sales person. One of the few was Middletown Honda who had no problem to discuss buying new car remotely. The sales person Art Anuszkiewicz gave me a fair for today price and discussed with me all details on phone. He was in touch with me till the car came to the dealership. The dealership and especially the sales person Art Anuszkiewicz were above my expectations. Very professional and courteous service. I got so much personal attention, he was able to answer all my questions and concerns. He was straight forward in negotiation process, very honest and courteous. I will let all my relatives and friends about him. Today is so hard to find the sales person that you can trust! Thank you Art very much!!! read more

I did almost as much research on the right dealership to go to as I did on the car that I wanted to buy, and I could not be happier with my choice. I ended up purchasing a 2018 Honda Civic Touring. Chris Gross was the salesman that helped me with the purchase. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and quick to answer any questions that I had. He and I worked with Brad who helped me understand the extended warranties and gave me a great deal on the price of the car! When it came time to pick up the car at the dealership, Brad already had all the paperwork ready to go, and Damien walked us through signing everything. He then helped me get everything set up (settings, connected my phone to the car, etc.) before I left the dealership. Chris even stopped over to make sure everything was going well. The whole process was quick and painless. I would definitely recommend this dealership and their team! Thank you, Middletown Honda, for the great buying experience! read more
