Steer clear of this dealer I purchased an Acura Cl from them j a year ago. I drive a commercial truck so I drove it very little. In around 11k miles from purchase , here is wha I purchased an Acura Cl from them j a year ago. I drive a commercial truck so I drove it very little. In around 11k miles from purchase , here is what I fixed or replaced: CV axles, ($450) all tires/ (tires were separating, ($600) alignment ( $79) door handle broken inside door ($198) dealer diagnostics for check engine light recurring ($270) battery ($89) tune up incl plugs, cap, rotor, which I replaced myself parts ($49 ) Here is what car needed a few days ago per dealer/ distributor $500 & labor/ catalytic converter $775 & labor possible timing belt,water pump & drive belts (service records don't show ever been done with 165.000 mi plus) $550-$800 parts & labor, depending on whether oil seals, tensioners etc need replacement. This is moot now, because a couple days ago the tranny went out. A used junkyard tranny installed is $2450. The car in good condition is worth about $2000. I paid around $4000-$4500 for the car. And I recall mentioning the tranny clunked a lot going into gear, Tim told me " That's just a Honda transmission, they're all like that" or words to that effect. Now that it's almost worthless, I asked the dealer what they could give me on a courtesy trade, and was told after they ran their report, "nothing". It seems the car was also in a wreck years ago in California, and sustained "structural damage" They stated they can't resell such a vehicle. Dealers all run reports on autos they buy, so clearly they knew and chose not to disclose this wreck. I didn't pay for a salvage vehicle, this was supposed to be a clear title, so let's say I was shafted thoroughly (again) by someone I trusted, who I now recognize as just another used car salesman.
