I have While vacationing in the Toms River area I had mechanical problems with my car. I was referred to Honda of Toms River by a local merchant. I have to commend this Honda dealer and especially the representative Dennis Novello for resolving my problems and getting me back on the road to continue my vacation with minimal trouble or time loss.

I am pretty sure these folks engaged in criminal behavior. I went in my my used civic for their "free inspection".

When I left they had shrpritzed fresh motor oil on the timing belt cover and a couple other places. They tried to con me into about $1000 of work. I am a backyard mechanic and had given the car a good look when I bought it from its adult, first-owner. No leaks were present. No spots on his driveway or in his garage, and no evidence of any recent cleaning of theses surfaces or car's underside. I was highly suspect of this dealer even before I went in to get this free inspection. Now I am thinking of contacting NJ's state Dept. of Community Affairs to see if there is some way to stop these crooks from preying on the unsuspecting. MY BIG TIPOFF ON THIS WAS THE FACT THAT THE CAR NEEDED AN OIL CHANGE, SO THE MOTOR OIL WAS DARK BROWN AND DIRTY. THE OIL THAT THEY APPLIED TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE ENGINE WAS CLEAN, CLEAR AND FRESH. IT DRIZZLED ON MY DRIVEWAY FOR ABOUT A WEEK AFTER THEY HAD TOUCHED THE CAR. THEN THE DRIPPING STOPPED. THAT WOULD BE IN KEEPING WITH AN ATTEMPTED CON JOB. More
