🚨 WARNING: Dishonest Dealership – Stay Far Away from Honda of Staten Island 🚨
On August 16, 2022, I purchased a 2019 Genesis G70 (VIN: KMTG44LA9KU029847, Stock #KU029847) with 14,511 miles for $36,990. The car was advertised with a clean title and a clean Carfax, with “no accidents reported.” The dealership even gave me a clean Carfax , front page clearly showing “no accident reported, Carfax guaranteed.”
Fast forward almost 3 years and countless issues later, I tried selling the car — only to be told its value was far below market because of a serious accident history. When I received the real Carfax, I found the truth:
👉 The car had major damage to the front, side, rear, and roof. Not a minor accident, but a wreck that destroyed value and safety. The Carfax Honda of Staten Island gave me in 2022 had the first page altered and the middle pages removed — the exact ones showing this damage. I still have both reports, the fake one they gave me and the real one that proves the fraud.
This is outright fraud. They knowingly sold me a car with a falsified Carfax, hid the real history, and passed it off as clean, a direct violation of consumer protection laws.
I emailed them multiple times, zero response. No accountability, no effort to resolve. Clearly, this isn’t the first time they’ve pulled this scam. But this time, they picked the wrong person. I’ve spoken with 2 attorneys and am preparing legal action. I'll also be a filing complaint with the BBB, Honda corporate headquarters, and the District Attorney’s office to investigate.
If you’re considering buying a car here, ask yourself first,
Do you want to risk paying top dollar for a car that was wrecked?
Do you want to be handed a fake Carfax report while they smile and shake your hand?
Do you want years of headaches and a worthless resale value?
If your answer is yes, then shop here. Otherwise, save yourself the nightmare and RUN from Honda of Staten Island. There are plenty of honest dealerships out there, this is absolutely not one of them.
