OCEAN HONDA CUSTOMERS BEWARE I'am leaving one star just to let you all know what kind of a dealership you are dealing with. I took my Odyssey in for service, they said it it was due for a multi point insp to let you all know what kind of a dealership you are dealing with. I took my Odyssey in for service, they said it it was due for a multi point inspection. In May 2022 my car is 2014 with 24,591 miles. this supposed work order turned out to be $656.13. This Oct. 2022 for my registration I had to have a smog check. The smog guy looked into the engine and said your car need wiper fluid, oil, coolant and hoses. Mileage at this time was 26,119 miles. He recommended a very reputable independent mechanic, after I told him of all the work that Ocean Honda supposedly did. I went to this mechanic in La Habra, fantastic, he walked me through the entire car, hardly any oil, hardly any coolant, broken hose to windshield wiper tank, no fluid in washer tank. in cabin air filter solid black, probably the original from when we bought the car. As we had always taken the car to Honda for all its services. The engine motor filter also black like goo all over it with tons of bugs and just grunge, probably the original on that filter as well. This mechanic even too pictures. I went to Honda to see the manager as he was going to be there. Oh shock, he left for out of town. Some woman Crystal said we had to deal with her. She stated they didn't do any of that, even though it is on our receipt. Would not look at paper work or parts. Turned her back on us and told us to leave, very rude. Totally blew us off, said I'am not going to continue to deal with you. Crystal also said they were not responsible or would not return any money. Looks like they take your money and don't do the work, with these newer type cars, being covered in plastic we have no idea if they did the work or not. Let this a warning to everyone who goes to this dealership, the manager was hiding in his office as she said, and they don't do the work they charge you for TOTAL SCAM DON'T TAKE A CHANCE More

Bait and switch. Beware! I made it really easy for the internet sales manager, Valeria Soto. She sounded very friendly over text and over the phone. When I arri Beware! I made it really easy for the internet sales manager, Valeria Soto. She sounded very friendly over text and over the phone. When I arrived I talked to her for 2 minutes She then passed me on to a different sales rep. They let test drive a non hybrid car abs the salesman kept saying it’s the same exact car witch it isn’t since it has a different engine. When it came time to finance I was willing to overlook all of this so long as they didn’t play the back and forth game where they pretend to be giving you a great deal every time. I told them I wanted a hybrid CRV. When I arrived it turns out it was in a sister location.... I was ok with this I told them that’s fine, I told them give me the lowest APR off the bat no back and forth and your best price. This guy comes back with a sheet that doesn't even have the total cost. The APR he gave me was almost 10% I showed him the promo and he looked confused. I left. You should too. I made it really easy and they bait and switched. More

One Star is too many for this dishonest establishment. DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT BUY A CAR FROM THIS BUSINESS! I has searched for a specific car on True Car, then ended up contacting Ocean Honda directly. Wa NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT BUY A CAR FROM THIS BUSINESS! I has searched for a specific car on True Car, then ended up contacting Ocean Honda directly. Was provided a firm quote for the sales price and also outlined the dealer added features for the total price. Drove 78 miles to get there to buy the car, and was told the quote was incorrect, and they added over $4,000! I asked how can this possibly be and the reply was oops it was a mistake on their part, sorry. Never any remorse or effort to honor and take responsibility for what they quoted. Print outs, emails and texts were provided and still, "sorry buddy you need to buy the car at this new price!!" To Ivonne Apolinar in Internet Sales and Mario Castillo in Store Sales, and especially Tony the Sales Manager, your actions are unprofessional, indefensible and show poorly of your character. You must make profits by ripping off the lower middle class immigrant population in your neighborhood, people who do not understand your arbitrary market adjustments, hyper inflated dealer addons as well as garbage extended warranties. To anyone considering this dealership, Caveat Emptor! or alternatively "cuidado por parte del comprador!" They are dishonest crooks. More

I should have read the reviews before coming here.The 1 I should have read the reviews before coming here. The 1 star reviews are correct! I received a Truecar quote and spoke to the rep there several ti I should have read the reviews before coming here. The 1 star reviews are correct! I received a Truecar quote and spoke to the rep there several times and asked the price to confirm it's the actual price. Well I drove a long way in traffic and rain. Glad even though I was tired I still was in my right mind to know when they want to be what every customer hates....the shady deal! Not only they added literally $2000 more market adjustment price than in the email I had...they wanted to put $4000 in additional add-ons for a car that hasn't landed at the dealership! So moral of the story...even when you get it in writing...do NOT come to this dealership. More

I tried to work with them yesterday to lease a car but found them to be scammers who tried to use a bait and switch on me. Beware. Also because cars are harder to find these days, they are marking found them to be scammers who tried to use a bait and switch on me. Beware. Also because cars are harder to find these days, they are marking up all of their cars with a “Dealer Fee”. We were looking to buy a 2022 Civic Sport. They marked it up with a $3,000 dealer fee. We went to Honda of Huntington Beach and worked with Gilbert to get a good and fair deal that worked for us and the dealership. First Honda in Simi Valley is also a great place to go - but never, ever Ocean Honda in Whittier! More

Saw a used Honda Civic on their website, and in 1 day I drove off the lot! Service was absolutely fantastic. Mario Castillo walked me through the entire process as this was my first time buying a car. He w drove off the lot! Service was absolutely fantastic. Mario Castillo walked me through the entire process as this was my first time buying a car. He was knowledgeable on all of the features my car came with and very personable. Once it came time to go into the finance office, I was taken care of by Vince Coronel. He was fantastic! He explained everything that I was signing multiple times for me and made sure I felt comfortable during the whole process. Both gentleman walked me out to my new car and made sure I was all set up with everything so needed. I cannot recommend Ocean Honda of Whittier enough. More
