Rosenthal Landmark Honda

Lying to price gouge?!?! You just lost a long-time customer... It really breaks my heart to write this, but I will NEVER purchase another vehicle nor service my current vehicle at Landmark Honda again. After buying two (2) vehicles from them, having both vehicles ONLY dealer-serviced for 10 and 6 years, respectively (with the exception of one brake repair by someone else to try to save money--you will see why below), spending well over ten thousand dollars on service alone over the years, AND referring someone who also purchased a vehicle from them, it's disheartening and heartbreaking to me that Sean Kearney would flat out LIE about the ability to do a repair. I am well aware that Landmark Honda and probably most dealers overcharge for service, but I have always paid it because they also seem to repair their vehicles the best. When Larry Shifflett, the current manager of the Service Department, was my team service manager, he was OUTSTANDING (no wonder he was promoted)! He was honest and always gave me discounts to make the cost more reasonable. However, with my second vehicle, they found something that needed to be repaired each time I went that would cost a minimum of several hundred dollars to fix--if not more. In fact, right after I purchased the vehicle that they said was in great condition and didn't require any repairs, they turned around and told me a couple of months later that it needed $1,200 of work!! In hindsight, that was a red flag but I still trusted them so I kept servicing my vehicle there. Recently, I took my vehicle to complete a series of repairs that cost over $2,000. I had a slow leak in one of my tires and asked if they could look at it and fix it, if possible. They did, and told me there was a nail that was too close to the rim and I would need a new tire for $200. I told Sean I have NEVER paid that much for one tire and was not about to. Today, I went to Kingstowne Auto Care; they said there was a tiny nail and repaired the tire for $25.00!!!!!! $25.00!!!!! After purchasing two (2) vehicles from Landmark Honda, having them serviced there faithfully for 16 years, paying thousands upon thousands of dollars in service fees AND referring someone else, they LIE to me to try to make $200?!?! Really, Sean?!?! I am beyond disappointed and hurt by their dishonesty, lack of loyalty and appreciation for a long-time customer. Clearly, that means absolutely nothing to Sean. As they saying goes, fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. Well, you have likely fooled me many times in recent years but I trusted you so I kept returning. But now that I know you intentionally LIED to try to fool me again, shame on me if I trust you again. It's almost time for me to purchase another vehicle but I have such a bad taste in my mouth that it's highly unlikely I will purchase another Honda. Hope it was worth it...
