When we needed a car and our credit was terrible,…read moreand no one else would help us, we were facing having to hitch hike around, at over 60 years of age and disabled. We found James, who was our car angel, he got us the deal of the century only 500 down and payments under 200 a month. Now we are safely being able to get around to our doctors appointments and able to get food and other life necessities, due to the great Godly heart and work of James Castro. If there is anyone who deserves to be gloried for being a good soul and going way beyond the call of duty to help those in need it is James. We cannot thank him enough, may all his days be ever more blessed and may the Lord God of all smile upon him and his family always!

After being hassled and pressured at other dealerships I was pretty fed up with the whole process. Then I came across Rob Whipple when browsing vehicles at Island Auto Center. He helped me with all of my questions and made the whole experience of buying a car very relaxed. I didn't think honest car salesman existed, I was proved wrong! I am now driving my first car since I moved to Hawaii and I recommend everyone looking for a used car to head to Island Auto Center and ask for Rob Whipple.

Great people, totally recommend if you have a couple extra hours to spent getting and returning your rental.

Over the phone, he quoted me a price of $29 / day and $197 / week. The weekly rate seemed the same as the daily rate, but we went there anyway. Should have seen a red flag. Since I didn't know how long my car would be in the shop, I started with the full week, with the understanding that we might bring the rental back early when our car was fixed. Ok. He charged over $233 to my credit card. $36 over his "weekly" rate. I thought it might be for taxes and such, but I couldn't reconcile it with the rental agreement, since it wasn't filled out. I figured we would sort it out when the car was returned. That was on Monday, after 4 pm. Oh, and the car had less than a quarter tank of gas. Rudy told me to return it a fourth full. How do you fill up a car to a quarter tank?? I thought it best not to argue with Rudy, since he did not seem like a pleasant person. Our car was repaired and I returned the rental after using it for 3 days. It was Thursday, before 4 pm. Cars For Less Maui was closed and locked up. Finally, a mechanic arrived and opened the door. He said Rudy was at the airport and I needed to wait. Rudy finally showed up and started working his calculator, to figure my refund. He told me that he was waiving the $60 cancellation fee, like he was doing me a favor. It seemed odd, since there was no mention of a cancellation fee when I rented the car and nothing on the rental agreement about it. Great, he did me a favor by not charging me something that he had no right to charge me. But, the total still seemed high. He said he was charging me for 4 days. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Hold on there, Rudy. I picked up the car on Monday. If I returned it on Tuesday, it would be a one day rental. If I returned it on Wednesday, it would be a two day rental. Since I returned it on Thursday, it was a three day rental. So, three days times $29 should be $87. Rudy said that was wrong because I picked the car up Monday morning. No, it was after 4 pm. Rudy said he would charge me for 3 days, but with the $60 cancellation fee. He gave me that choice, or I could pay for 4 days. I paid for 4 days, because he was acting like a tough guy. By the way, I also returned the car with a half tank of gas. Gas is expensive on Maui. Did that do me any good. Nope. One other thing. I never received an itemized receipt or completed rental contract. It doesn't seem like Rudy charges taxes or county fees for renting cars. Not my problem, though. I'll let Maui county work that out with him. I wish I had checked the reviews before doing business with Rudy, but I hope you don't make my mistake.

While we didn't drive home in my 'future dream car' (yet!), Sebastian Gomez was absolutely wonderful to work with.

Where do I even begin? Island Honda is absolutely not the dealership it used to be when the…read moreKitagawa family owned it. The difference in professionalism and customer care is night and day -- and not in a good way. I spent the last two days trying to purchase a vehicle, walking in with $70,000 cash, ready to buy. Instead of being treated like a serious customer, I was met with disorganization, unprofessional behavior, and staff who seemed either uninterested or completely untrained. The current GM (as of March 2026) sets the tone, and unfortunately that tone is terrible. His attitude trickles down to several of his employees, and it shows. I currently own a Honda and even purchased the Honda Service package, but the service department here is a joke. The staff is unprofessional, lacks basic knowledge, and the manager... well, let's just say "winner" in the most sarcastic way possible. It's all a reflection of poor leadership. The only person who deserves recognition is Rita, the shuttle driver -- a genuinely kind, professional, and standout human being in a dealership that desperately needs more people like her. Lithia Motors should take a hard look at what's happening at this location. At this rate, it's only a matter of time before complaints pile up. The Better Business Bureau will be hearing from me.

There are no signs showing where to go. There's a "Service Express" sign on one building, a garage to the left, and cars parked everywhere. I headed toward the garage, which is how every dealership I've been to before operates. A Nissan‑uniformed employee came out of the garage and yelled at me, asking what I was doing. I told him I was here for service and had no idea where to drop off the car. He told me to turn around because I was "pointing to the wrong direction." I assumed he was just a mechanic having a bad day -- turns out he was the service rep assigned to my appointment. He told me to drop off the keys and said the car would be ready in 2-4 hours. He asked for a number to call or text; I gave him mine. That was it. No explanation of what they were going to do, no offer of a ride home, no mention of a waiting area. Nothing. Four hours later, instead of contacting me like instructed, he texted my girlfriend. When I picked up the car, he handed me the paperwork, pointed where to sign, and again gave no explanation of what was done
