Westbrook Honda

We moved from NY to CT at the time our lease was ending on our CR-V. Our dealership in NYC had closed about a year ago so I was happy to find another Honda dealer close to our new home. I called and made on our CR-V. Our dealership in NYC had closed about a year ago so I was happy to find another Honda dealer close to our new home. I called and made an appointment with Manu, we were greeted warmly when we arrived at the dealership, Manu was running a bit behind with another couple so he introduced us to Henry to get our info and start talking about cars. We were not totally pleased with the 2008 CR-V comfort level so we wanted to look at a sedan. Henry actually encouraged us to look at the new CR-V which now has an adjustable drivers side seat. We were happy he showed us this but still really wanted a sedan. By that point Manu was available and took the time to ask what features were really important to us and brought out an Accord. We took it for a test drive and loved it. However we found a snag that as we still had our out of state licenses we could not register the car in CT. No problem, they let us set up the lease and take the car home with us with a dealer plate on the agreement we would get our CT licenses and come back to finish up the registration paperwork. I found everyone at Westbrook Honda to be helpful and friendly. I would recommend them highly and am happy to find such a great dealership close to our new home. More

I purchased my first Honda, last year in August. I have been a Chevrolet fan for the majority of my life, but my father convinced me to give Honda a look. When I arrived I was greeted by Manu Serohi as I e been a Chevrolet fan for the majority of my life, but my father convinced me to give Honda a look. When I arrived I was greeted by Manu Serohi as I entered the building. Before we even spoke about cars, Manu was courteous enough to offer me a complementary coffee, which I took full advantage of. With coffee in hand, we then proceeded outside to take a look at some of the used Hondas. Being a college student, I didn't think that a new car was even an option for me. However, Manu discussed my budget with me and suggested that I consider leasing a 2010 Honda, with an option to purchase after the lease expired. He thoroughly explained to me the option, with my best interests in mind concerning payments, insurance, and practicality given the current economic situation. After Manu explained to me how Realtime 4WD worked, I decided that the CR-V was the best option for me(and it really paid off after the winter we had here in Connecticut in 2010!!!) When we sat down to talk numbers, Manu was very understanding of my situation and was constantly going back and forth with his manager attempting to get me the best price. I had previously owned a Malibu Maxx by Chevrolet and was initially quoted at a lower price than I expected to get for it. Again, Manu spoke with the used car manager and was again able to meet my needs in getting a bump up on the quote. We finally struck up and deal, and the car was made ready in the time that I was told, and in a quick and orderly fashion. The car was clean, and drove like a champ. Manu met everyone of my needs in the process and was very understanding of my situation.I would strongly reccommend to anyone looking to buy a Honda to drive down to Westbrook and ask for Manu specifically by name.

I had two very different experiences at Westbrook Honda, see below. My 1st experience with Westbrook Honda was a very enjoyable experience. I went in talked to Larry about what I was looking for and wha see below. My 1st experience with Westbrook Honda was a very enjoyable experience. I went in talked to Larry about what I was looking for and what my price range was. He called me the very next day with a car. He was very professional, friendly and courteous. I also had a chance to speak with Chris in the finance department, he was also very understanding and helpfull. I would recommend both of these employees to anyone that would be looking for a new or used car. On the down side I had a not so good experience with your finance man Randy. I felt he was very pushy and did not give me the correct information. I beleive he out right lied to me. If it were not for Larry and Chris I would have taken my business to some other dealer. In the long run I am glad I stayed with Westbrook Honda. I love my car and your service people are also very good to work with. I thank all of them for helping me with my purchase. Thank you again: Jackie Borelli More

I bought my civic from Westbrook Honda in 2006 when I was living in CT. I have since moved to Providence. Last week the exhaust pipe on my car snapped and I took it into Metro Honda in Rhode Island because i living in CT. I have since moved to Providence. Last week the exhaust pipe on my car snapped and I took it into Metro Honda in Rhode Island because it was close. I ended up pulling my car out of service in Rhode Island because I didn't like the way that they were treating me, as well as the fact that they could not offer me a loaner for the weekend while they worked on my car. The service employees in Rhode Island seemed only to be interested in closing up for the day. I ended up driving the 90 miles to Westbrook because they told me that they could get my car in and give me a loaner until my car was finished being worked on. The customer service was excellent- Bryan Gustis, the service manager, was very helpful. The dealership drove my car out to Rhode Island for me in order to swap it with the loaner. Overall, it was a really good experience and I will definitely continue to bring my car to Westbrook, despite living out of state. It's worth the drive! More

We worked with Manu Serohi, who spent alot of time taking us out for a test drive and explaining all of the different features of the car. He went over the manufacturer's and dealer's warranty. Showed us the service area and explained about bringing in the car and scheduling for service. Our car was ready when promised and again Manu went over all the different parts and features of the car before we left. I would definitely recommend Manu and Westbrook Honda to friends and family.

Westbrook Honda is the best dealership around; they have a one of a kind sales team that doesn’t turnover week to week like all the other dealerships! They are all certified and factory trained. My name is a one of a kind sales team that doesn’t turnover week to week like all the other dealerships! They are all certified and factory trained. My name is Jerry Gil I am a firefighter and a Soldier in the US Army National Guard, me and my wife have purchased 4 cars from Manu, he is the most honest and sincere person I have ever met. I feel compelled to write about my experience because I stumbled on this web-site and all I have read is a bunch of crap from people who like to blame other people for there own problems. No one is loyal anymore they bounce from dealer to dealership playing games and bashing them every chance they get because they didn’t get there way. I think its pathetic that people play games like this and then go on Blogs or even reputable consumer resources like this vomit there nonsense and in the process rob people from there own experience. Westbrook Honda has a top-notch service department with courteous employees who are professional and knowledgeable. They have years of experience and don’t miss a beat when it comes to taking care of all of your needs. Two of the cars I purchased were used, yes used that means another person had them before me! The service department went through them with a fine toothcomb I didn’t have a single issue with either of them! Any time that I have brought my car in for service the refer to me by name they listen to everything I tell them and when I pick my car up after its completed every issue has been addressed. Westbrook Honda and more importantly Manu have been very good to me I wont buy a Honda anywhere else. I will be leaving for a deployment in 11 months and when I return I plan on buying my 5th Honda from him. At the end of the day all I really am trying to say is make your own decisions don’t listen to the garbage people post on here or anywhere else. Manu and the people at this dealership are real people and if you’re in the market for a good Honda or used car I recommend that you find out for you self! More

I recently purchased a used vehicle from westbrook honda, a Honda CR-V. The sales experience was difficult and almost didn't happen because of one sales person. I initially went to look at a used car after a Honda CR-V. The sales experience was difficult and almost didn't happen because of one sales person. I initially went to look at a used car after driving through the lot and saw a vehicle that match what we were looking for in a new car. Sales person, Larry Bagley, showed us the vehicle and took a test drive. Unfortunately that night we were limited for time and said we would be coming back. I called the next day to see if I could bring my car in to be evaluated as a trade-in and was told Larry was in but not available. When we arrived we were informed by another salesperson, Manu Serohi, that Larry was not in(we later found out it was his day off) and he would help us. We looked at the CR-V again as our car was being evaluated. When we came back in to talk "numbers" we were informed that our car was not worth much as a trade-in because of potential mechanical issues but that Manu was able to get them to bump up the price to make the offer tolerable. I tried to negotiate with them but was told because of the current situations with car parts coming from Japan that prices of used cars were going up and we were lucky that we were getting the sticker price because the car was soon to be going up in price. The most alarming statement from Mr. Serohi was in reference to dealer profit when he said "sometimes dealerships don't make much profit in sales but this is a time when they do" When I did make another offer on the CR-V which Mr. Serohi brought to the Salesmanager (might have been the GM) I could see Mr. Serohi say something to the manager and the manager start laughing. Now Mr. Serohi said it was a unrelated joke between the two of them but during a negotiation I don't feel it is very appropriate to joke around in front of potential customers. Never the less after much fruitless talking we left without a new car. Thankfully, for them, Larry called us back the following day and worked diligently and hard to get us some more for our trade and work on the price. Because of his hard work and commitment to his customers we bought a certified used car from Westbrook Honda. The CR-V is in excellent shape and after a few days of driving it, we are very happy about buying it. I would recommend working with Larry Bagley but I will be telling friends to steer clear of Mr. Serohi because I feel Mr. Serohi is in it for the dealership not his customers. More

I want to upgrade my review. The tire pressure light went on when I got home with my new car. I took it back this morning and they found a nail/screw in the tire. They repaired it at no charge and returned a on when I got home with my new car. I took it back this morning and they found a nail/screw in the tire.
