I inquired about a new vehicle this dealership was selling. They clearly listed the price online. However, when I spoke to a sales manager there they told me the car was currently being bid and righ selling. They clearly listed the price online. However, when I spoke to a sales manager there they told me the car was currently being bid and right now the highest bidder was $20k above the list price. At this point I was not interested at all for a few reasons. Cars are terrible investments, losing value the moment you buy them, so why spend 50% more than the MSRP? Secondly, the dealership had a price listed and people have offered to buy it but they're holding out to be greedy corporate pigs. That's not even the best part though. I was then reached out to a 2nd time by another sales rep a few days later. I chatted with him and he confirmed the car had offers above the list price but only in the 11-12k range. Which means the original sales rep lied to me about how much the car was going for. Just another reason to not trust these folks. Do not shop with this dealership. More
We were looking a 2021 CPO CR-V Hybrid for purchase. My wife corresponded with the salesman, Hamdi, throughout the day via text, never once speaking to him on the phone. I went to the dealership after w My wife corresponded with the salesman, Hamdi, throughout the day via text, never once speaking to him on the phone. I went to the dealership after work and inspected the vehicle, finding that it was a great fit. I told the salesman to move forward with the vehicle purchase, and that I would be pursuing outside financing. The salesman hinted that he had already taken money off the table in the form of vehicle protection plans and that I needed to go with Honda financing for him to get something back. I told him that wasn't my problem, and that was I was there to get the best deal possible. We moved into closing with finance and were almost done when our finance manager was called away. While he was gone, the salesman came back and again hinted not so subtlely that I need to go with Honda financing. When the finance manager came back, he asked me if the salesman had ever told me I would not be able to purchase the car without Honda financing. I stated that he had not, and then proceeded to show him the string of text messages he had with my wife, none of which said anything of the sort. The manager stated he believed me, but he was being overruled, and that unless I went with Honda financing, the car would not be sold to me. I believe this practice to be very unethical on the dealer's part, and an outright lie on the salesman's part. I am someone who deeply values transparency, and this was not it. I went ahead and purchased the vehicle because it was a good fit, but I'll never be back. More
They were really good about trying to get me approved with my poor credit I just couldn't get approved but they took their time to try everything they could and even showed me prices in my price range I with my poor credit I just couldn't get approved but they took their time to try everything they could and even showed me prices in my price range I definitely suggest going there and I will definitely be going back as soon as I can afford a bigger down payment More
I had a terrible terrible experience with this dealer while I took my car to service. They did a very expensive repair, but it did not last more than week. Now they are not willing to take responsibility while I took my car to service. They did a very expensive repair, but it did not last more than week. Now they are not willing to take responsibility of their mis-diagnostics and un necessary works. The service workers either do not know what they are doing or do sloppy works. While raising the concern to managements, they are little to no helps. Taking this to BBB and others where I found numerous complaints against this dealership. I wish I did some research about this service center before I go at a first end. More
My wife and I were looking seriously at buying a used 2017 Suburban, and the same day we had planned on this, the vehicle experienced some pretty catastrophic engine failure. Our Salesman was upfront and 2017 Suburban, and the same day we had planned on this, the vehicle experienced some pretty catastrophic engine failure. Our Salesman was upfront and honest with us, and still arranged for us to see the Suburban so we could at least experience the interior and lay eyes on it for ourselves. Everyone was kind and accommodating to us. I'm definitely going to keep an eye on their inventory from now on. More
Second time I’ve come here for an express oil change and it’s anything but express. You WILL wait 2 hours minimum no matter how many cars are there. The service counter makes you feel like you are disturbin it’s anything but express. You WILL wait 2 hours minimum no matter how many cars are there. The service counter makes you feel like you are disturbing them. I felt like I had a done something wrong by asking for an oil change. I paid to have this service for my Honda, but I’m starting to regret it. What happened to those friendly guys greeting you at the front entrance when they think you’re buying a car? Oh well, guess that was just business. More
I come to Gilman Houston for express oil change, but come to find out I have to wait at 2-3 hrs and I already waited for 2 hrs and still waiting. Anyone who wants to come for express oil change, this is not to find out I have to wait at 2-3 hrs and I already waited for 2 hrs and still waiting. Anyone who wants to come for express oil change, this is not for you. I had came before and longest waiting was 1&1/2 hrs. Now I know. No more next time. More
Gillman Honda Service is very unprofessional. I recently took my car in for a tune up it stayed in the parking lot for over a week. I called almost every day with no answer from the Service Advis I recently took my car in for a tune up it stayed in the parking lot for over a week. I called almost every day with no answer from the Service Advisor Kevin. This place needs to be closed down how do you run a business in this matter. More
Horrible experience. I was set to purchase a Civic SI from another dealership. The salesman Pablo from Gillman promised me he would get me the car drive out under 40k. I I was set to purchase a Civic SI from another dealership. The salesman Pablo from Gillman promised me he would get me the car drive out under 40k. I told him I had a deal in the works for just that. He said they would give me a sweet deal. Convinced me to drive out of my way after work for this “deal”. I get there and the first offer is 41k+. xxx! We haggled, but at this point I was just pissed. I walked and lost my deal at the other dealership because I didn’t put money on the deal. So yeah, both Gillman Hondas I went to were shady. Be careful with these guys. More
