frustration, questionable honesty/methods and weak response at every level Within days after purchase: electrical problems and a window on the passenger side that groans and jams. I’m having to drive response at every level Within days after purchase: electrical problems and a window on the passenger side that groans and jams. I’m having to drive back to where I live near Idaho so I’m unable to get into “perfection”Honda. I sent film of the busted window to Eric and got a message asking me if I wanted to come in and buy a car… Sent more messages to diff people in org and spoke to someone who claimed to be a “manager” but they were there on their off day…when I spoke to Eric he said the manager has to handle it…when I spoke to the manager he said Eric has to handle it… Typical buck passing. Makes me think of that Spider-Man meme, where the Spideys are all pointing at each other …This is going to get interesting… Update: After having to SCREAM , I got Eric to call Twin Falls Honda and set up an appointment, explain what the situation was etc…After all, it’s a brand new car that shouldn’t be in this condition at all. Later I got a call from Twin Falls Honda who said “bring your car and we will get it right in.” I went and got right in. The window regulator is fried… I used the window once and it was fried then. How does this happen? Service rep had to drag the vin number out of Eric who according to her asked her to call me with no vin etc. Thankfully she asked the right questions and got the info. Makes me wonder what else is wrong with this brand new car. Whoever inspected this vehicle/did the pre-service set up was derelict, if it happened at all. It goes to show when they’re trying to get your money they’ll promise the moon but in order to get service that should be customary once said money has changed hands one must pull out the flamethrower to get results. My advice, if you’re going to buy a Honda don’t do it here. If you do, press every button and check every possible feature unlike me who foolishly trusted “perfection” had done it and then still think again…if there are no repercussions should they welch don’t expect it to happen at all. Not without significant effort. 2/10:Paid fees, taxes for my state at time of sale…was told that my plates would be coming and that “Perfection” handles this all the time…only to later have an ATTEMPTED DODGE AND DUMP by Jessica Apodaca of “Perfection.” Jessica stated, “there’s a problem and things will have to be handled differently”-likely translation, we blew it off, didn’t know what was entailed and now that its past due and there will be a fine we want you to just go deal with it because now it will cost us more and we’d rather YOU pay that. (Why do car sales have such a bad rep?) This AFTER the 30 day legal limit…Again, I insisted that they stand by their word (guessing blowoff thus increased cost). Rather than telling me initially or informing me of the problem early as I even called Jessica Apodaca when at DMV the DAY BEFORE the 30 day mark to turn in my old plates Jessica said “NO, we’re going to handle it, its being processed by the service.” Now, not in compliance, I can be fined 1k per offense, car impounded…All due to either incompetence, sloppiness, ignorance or attempted greed. Likely a combination. (Just get their money.) I have a new car that has had problems that I’m paying an inflated price for and am afraid to drive. I have spoken with “Perfection” since repeatedly where they assured me that the plates are being handled at “significant” expense “expedited” over 6 weeks since the purchase of the car. 2/14- Got emails: my plate is there but can’t be here til next week with FED/EX. Re: they don’t deliver on Saturdays/no overnight here per Bornmeyer. UPS does and I let them know as much…As fast as possible? Expedited? Try harder Mr. Bornmeyer. 2/15 Bornmeyer sent me an email choosing the slower method despite knowing better. plate sat now for 1.5 days. Perfections delay by choice. Where else has this occurred? 52 days later 22 of which carry possible sanctions. The perfection experience More

Just don’t. Don’t buy here. What could have been and should have been a painless experience just keeps on giving headache after headache. Within days after purc Don’t buy here. What could have been and should have been a painless experience just keeps on giving headache after headache. Within days after purchase: there appear to be electrical problems and a window on the passenger side that groans and stops halfway down. Unfortunately, I’m having to drive back to where I live near Idaho so I’m unable to get into “perfection”Honda. I’ve sent film of the groaning window and received a message asking me if I wanted to come in and buy a car… Sent further text messages and spoke to someone who claimed to be a “manager” but they were there on their off day…when I spoke to the salesman he said the manager has to handle it…when I spoke to the manager he said the salesman has to handle it… Typical buck passing. Makes me think of that Spider-Man meme, where the Spideys are all pointing at each other …This is going to get interesting I’m sure . Update: After having to SCREAM , I finally got the salesman to call Twin Falls Idaho Honda and set up an appointment, explain what the situation was etc…After all, it’s a brand new car that shouldn’t be in this condition at all. Why am I having to deal with this? Later, as I was driving down the road I got a call from Twin Falls Honda who said “bring your car and we will get it right in.” I went and true to their word got right in. It turns out the window regulator is toasted… I used the window once …how does this happen ? Service rep there had to drag the vin number out of the salesman who according to her asked her to call me with no vin etc…Thankfully she asked the right questions and got the pertinent information. Makes me wonder what else is wrong with the thing, a brand new car…The dealer in Twin Falls incredulously wondered the same thing .Whoever inspected this vehicle or did the pre-service set up was completely derelict. That is, if it happened at all. I will wait two weeks, spend several more hours of my valuable time and have to drive another hundred miles to get the regulator installed that should have been caught before this thing left the lot in Albuquerque. So much for taking the pain out of car buying. It just goes to show when they’re trying to get your money they’ll be friendly but in order to get any kind of service that should be customary once said money has changed hands, one must pull out the flamethrower to get any results . My recommendation, if you’re going to buy a Honda don’t do it here or if you do press every button and check every possible feature unlike me who foolishly trusted that it had been done and then still think again…if there are no repercussions should they welch don’t expect it to happen at all. Update: 10 February 2024:Paid my fees, taxes for my state etc at time of sale…was assured that my plates would be coming and that “Perfection” handles this all the time…only to later have it attempted by Jessica Apodaca of “Perfection” that “there’s a problem and things will have to be handled differently”-likely translation, we blew it off, didn’t know what was entailed and now that its past the due date and there will be a fine we want you to just go deal with it. This AFTER the 30 day legally required limit…Again, I insisted that they stand by their word (guessing it was either blown off or they didn’t understand the actual cost).

I have a car that has already had problems that I”m paying significant money for and am afraid to drive. I have spoken with them since then on a number of occasions where they assured me that the plates are being handled at “significant” expense. It is two week More

This has been the best experience ever purchasing a vehicle! I inquired over the internet about the availability of a vehicle and Eric Garcia responded immediately! He was very informative, polite, and vehicle! I inquired over the internet about the availability of a vehicle and Eric Garcia responded immediately! He was very informative, polite, and friendly! No pressure; just very helpful! I also randomly stopped by when Eric was at lunch and Tony was kind enough to get the keys to go over the vehicle on the lot even though he knew I was working with Eric. He too was very courteous and helpful. Alexander helping us with the financial aspect was incredible! He was friendly, excellent at explaining everything and really went above and beyond to get us the best interest rate. Eric was also very patient and helpful in going over the features of the car at the end. It was a fabulous experience and I am am very grateful to the entire team at Perfection: especially Eric and Alexander! More

Contact wa This was my first Honda purchase and first time at this dealership. I had found the vehicles I wanted to look at on the dealership website. Contact was made with Salesman Dan Chavez. Arrangements were made to drive both vehicles. Features were explained during test drive and after purchase at pick up. All employees were knowledgeable regarding the products dealt with. Both my wife and myself were appreciative of the treatment and care we received from Dan Chavez and others. We were also impressed with follow up. Thank you. More
