Michael A Malmsbury was our sales advisor and I THOUGHT he was great until I checked my loan bank account and saw the scam he pulled on us. I went with my mother, whom did not speak English very well, but he was great until I checked my loan bank account and saw the scam he pulled on us. I went with my mother, whom did not speak English very well, but if there was anything she knows is how to say “no.” In our culture, it is very common and encouraged to negotiate prices, and we did. We spent a few hours at the dealership adamant on this price and when Michael finally agreed, we thought we were getting a great deal! Until I realized he took advantage of my mothers lack of English and lied about asking her to add a certain warranty. If we were adamant on this exact price, why would my mother “agree” to add unnecessary warranty to our price. Exactly, she didn’t. He not only lied about this but he tried to use her language barrier for his own selfish benefit. Now, I am in the process of getting this warranty canceled and it is stressful when you thought you were paying a certain amount only to see them add an extra 7k to your loan. Be aware of their scams and make sure you fully read your contract before you sign. Even if you think they might be a decent person, you’re wrong. It is unfortunate because this completely ruined our experience with getting a new car. Update: Honda of Sarasota is the absolute worst place to get your car from. I worked with Michael AND Brandon Benoit and my I cannot be any more unsatisfied. I tried to reach out to the owner, whom I think is Michelle (no updates whatsoever), tried reaching out to Brandon (the person handling the finance) and was found out this morning that I was blocked. I have been extremely patient with them but it has been over 7 weeks and my loan amount has not been adjusted. So warning, if you get Brandon Benoit as the guy handling your finance, be careful of what you’re singing. He’ll not only scam you but block you for trying to get your situation solved. I am never one to leave negative reviews, but when they are taking advantage of my mother’s language barrier and then just treating us like this when we’re simply tryin to get it solved is ridiculous! If you’re a minority, don’t go here! They’ll just take advantage of you. More

I recently bought a Honda Hrv 2023 and I had Michael to assist me and I can say he took his time with me and was very patient, he oriented me before buying it, he explained everything about the new car and assist me and I can say he took his time with me and was very patient, he oriented me before buying it, he explained everything about the new car and every little detail. It was just great I will recommend him with my eyes closed. More

I recently purchased a 2019 Honda Ridgeline and was dissatisfied with how things were initially handled. After leaving a reviews of my dissatisfaction, David Farner GM of Honda Sarasota reached out to dissatisfied with how things were initially handled. After leaving a reviews of my dissatisfaction, David Farner GM of Honda Sarasota reached out to me to find out what he could do to make things right. Mr. Farner went above and beyond and took care of us as soon as we walked into the dealership. He gave us a great deal on a new vehicle (for my wife) that we could not pass up on. He literally treated us as if we were family and if we ever have any issues in the future to reach out directly to him. We are very satisfied with how he resolved this matter in a timely manner.

They don’t use your preapproval letter and run your credit then they used the approval letter after they made the credit score drop over a 100 points !! So now instead of the payment being around $500 credit then they used the approval letter after they made the credit score drop over a 100 points !! So now instead of the payment being around $500 or $600 from the approval it went up to $824 they lied…. If I can bring the car back without affecting our credit I am going to then definitely buying somewhere we can trust ….. They also tried to make it like we needed a car we wanted 1 not needed. Overall was screwed over from this car lot !! More

Customer service is very poor in service department. Communication is poor and recalls are not a priority. Communication is poor and recalls are not a priority. More
