The overall buying experience was quick, easy and pleasant! I recently bought a Honda CR-V at McKenney-Salinas(7-3-14). I was really dreading the whole car buying process. I had a really old car and it had been I recently bought a Honda CR-V at McKenney-Salinas(7-3-14). I was really dreading the whole car buying process. I had a really old car and it had been a long time since I had purchased a car. I had saw the cr-v on cars.com so I stopped and took a look at it. I really liked the look of the vehicle. I started into the dealership and Lamont Stevenson met me going in. I told him which cr-v I wanted to drive, he said for me to sit down and ask if I would like a bottle of water, and then proceeded to get the keys so we could go for a test drive. He had such a easy manner about him, he made me feel very comfortable right off. After the test drive, I told him I loved the way the vehicle drove and handled and that I liked everything about it and that I wanted to purchase it. Lamont got the paper work done and faxed it to my bank so that they could setup the loan and I called my insurance and gave them the information they needed. Chris Pressley went over all the paperwork and I signed it. The whole process was easy, quick and pleasant. Lamont cleaned up and gased up the car and put my tag on for me. I had a rental car, so I drove it back to the rental place and another salesman picked me up and took me back to the dealership and Lamont was there waiting on me to shake my hand and thank me before I left. Lamont was very knowledgeable of the car, courteous and professional throughout the whole process. He said if I had any questions about the cr-v, just to call him and he would be glad to help me. He also sent me a follow-up email to see how things were going with the cr-v and to let him know if I needed anything. Thank you Lamont and Makenny Salinas for a pleasant buying experience.

I purchased a 2003 Ford F-150 from Lamont Stevenson and he was great to work with. I found the vehicle on autotrader.com late one evening and stopped by the dealership early the next morning (before busine he was great to work with. I found the vehicle on autotrader.com late one evening and stopped by the dealership early the next morning (before business hours) to see if the truck was still on the lot. Lamont got the keys and off we went on a short test drive. I was impressed with this vehicle but had a business obligation to attend and told him I would be back in a few hours. I called him shortly afterwards and told him I was on my way but when I got to the dealership someone else was test driving it. I left the dealership just a little disappointed fearing some else was about to purchase the vehicle. Lamont called me about 20 minutes later and said the truck was back on the lot and available. I told him I would be there in 10 minutes but he asked if he could bring it to me instead so he could get it off the lot. True to his word he delivered it to where I was. I then took the truck on another test drive and decided this was the one for me. Lamont took care of his necessary paperwork and I was out the door within an hour with my new used truck. Lamont was a pleasure to deal with and I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a new or used vehicle. More

I recently purchased a 2014 Honda Accord from McKenney Salinas Honda-Mitsubishi. This is the third Honda that I have purchased new since 1990 with the last two purchases from McKenny Salinas Honda-Mitsubi Salinas Honda-Mitsubishi. This is the third Honda that I have purchased new since 1990 with the last two purchases from McKenny Salinas Honda-Mitsubishi. I decided to purchase my new vehicle from McKenney Salinas Mitsubishi Honda because of the professional and courteous service that I consistently received throughout the years from the Service Department. This same service was recently demonstrated in my interactions with sales representative Lamont Stephenson. Most people dread purchasing a vehicle because of the price negotiations and haggling back and forth. This was not case with my recent purchase. I found my interactions with Lamont and his Sales Manager, Roger Hoyle, to be very friendly, professional, and courteous. Lamont was not pushy in his sales approach but listened to what I was looking for and assisted me in locating the type of car in their inventory. He was upfront and his integrity made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire selection and closing process. Roger answered any questions I had about my purchase agreement and financing. I feel that I obtained a very good sales price on the vehicle I selected. The Honda product sells itself. It is assuring to know that as a customer you are going to receive consistent professional and courteous from sales to service. I would highly recommend that if you are looking to purchase a vehicle to contact Lamont Stephenson and let him assist you in finding the vehicle you desire. You won't be disappointed. The Service Department is excellent also. Lamar Ledford has been with the dealership over 16 years as a Service Advisor. He has been assisting me for the last 13 years with miscellaneous maintenance needs on my 2001 Honda Accord. Now I am looking forward to Lamar and the Service Department taking care of my 2014 Honda Accord. I highly recommend McKenney Salinas Honda-Mitsubishi without hesitation. More

First, Jessica helped me on the phone, not only with the car we actually first viewed on-line, but with some other options Honda's offering now for year end. Once at the dealership, Lamont introduced himse car we actually first viewed on-line, but with some other options Honda's offering now for year end. Once at the dealership, Lamont introduced himself, explained options and warrenty info on the used car we'd gone there about, and let us take a test ride. He also explained in further detail the sales specials on the new Civics, and let us test one of those. He was not pushy or too forward; he was very nice, personable and knowledgeable about the car and the dealer's matters like price (a big concern for me), warranty, etc. Needless to say, we went ahead and bought a new model, as when I weighed our options, finances, and the Lifetime on the new one, I believe it's the better car option for our family. He introduced us to Jonathan, did the paperwork, etc., and I enjoyed a nice chat with him as we worked on the deal. He then handed us off to Chris for final paperwork, etc. Chris also made me aware of the extra bumper-to-bumper, and we did go ahead with that also, since I plan on keeping the car for a long time. The payments were able to be kept where I needed them to be also, which would have been a deal-breaker for me. The guys all gave us 100% even though it meant being there past closing time. We had a wonderful experience, and I am thankful to all the employees who we dealt with and made the deal happen. More

Lamont Stevenson was great to work with! He made the sale quick and easy. This review would have been great all around except for an issue that I had with one of the two keys I was given. The remote entry d quick and easy. This review would have been great all around except for an issue that I had with one of the two keys I was given. The remote entry did not work on one key and this was not explained to me at the time of sale. The dealership did work with me to try to reprogram the key, but in the end, it turned out that the key was a "dud." I was given the option to go in half for the payment of the new key. I felt this was very unfair since I was sold the car under the assumption that both keys were fully functional and not partially functional. I really had to argue this point with Jonathan (Don't know his last name) in order to get the key issue resolved. The arguing and haggling over the key was not necessary and not good customer service. I was also told that the key was never tested. In the end, the dealership finally offered to replace the key w/ remote entry at no cost to me. It was a great experience except for this one set back. More

This was our third time purchasing a car from McKenney-Salinas, we went back because of the wonderful service we recieved the first two times in dealing with Lamont Stevenson, when we decieded to McKenney-Salinas, we went back because of the wonderful service we recieved the first two times in dealing with Lamont Stevenson, when we decieded to purchase our vechicle this was the only place we came to. We both felt ( my husband and I) that since Lamont had been so kind and helpful the first time we were there, there would be no reason to look elsewhere. And just like the first time, Lamont gave us his attention to workmanship, and detail, listened to what we wanted and then suggested several cars for us to look at. We settled on the Nissan and the paper work was taken care of in a very timely manner. Although it will hopefully be awhile before we need another car, we will certainly return to your dealership first. We have also suggested that our son check out your dealership, when he gets ready for a new vechicle. Thank you Lamont for being the kind of person you are and you can count on our coming back to see you. Mary M. Thompson More

I had been searching the internet looking for a used car with low mileage. I am a price comparison shopper so I was familiar with local prices on the vehicle I was looking for. We found 2 cars in the price with low mileage. I am a price comparison shopper so I was familiar with local prices on the vehicle I was looking for. We found 2 cars in the price range we were looking for. Both were priced similarly at other dealerships. I made an appointment with Jessica to test drive the cars and they were ready when we arrived. We were greeted by Lamont Stevenson. He took us on the test drives and gave us information about both cars. After we made the decision which car we wanted to purchase, he smoothly walked us through the process. There was no pressure and the whole experience was pleasant from the beginning to the end. We were glad to be able to purchase a car from a dealership that is convenient to our home. We have been pleased with our purchase and will recommend them to anyone looking for a vehicle. More

Lamont was great to work with. My husband and I came in later in the day and ended up purchasing the same day because of our experience. We both felt very confident in Lamont and his honesty. That is not a later in the day and ended up purchasing the same day because of our experience. We both felt very confident in Lamont and his honesty. That is not always the case when you shop for cars! He gave us time to talk privately and was not pushy at all. We really had a great experience and would shop here again. We love our new car and are thankful for the deal we got! Thanks again! More
