Mili and David are an exceptional team at Honda! They made the entire experience smooth, stress-free, and got me in and out quickly with exactly the car I wanted. I originally went in expecting to get a new tire, but I ended up leaving with a brand-new 2026 vehicle! Mili is absolutely my go-to salesperson--she was knowledgeable, patient, and made the whole process enjoyable. David was equally helpful and professional throughout. Thank you both for the outstanding customer service. Honda has definitely become my new home for cars, and I'll be recommending Mili and David to anyone looking for a great car-buying experience! read more

Gardena Honda - 2026 Honda Accord Hybrid Sedan. - Auto Repair Near Me - Gardena, California

waste of time and energy, horrified experience. Came today and finalizing the price, after waiting 1 hour, they came back and said, " The car is not available anymore" why dont you tell earlier. You guys want to play Please, should make business going well, not going hell read more

BEWARE!!! THEY WILL RUN YOUR CREDIT AFTER TELLING YOU THEY WON'T!!! I WILL NEVER, EVER DO BUSINESS WITH THIS LOCATION AGAIN!!! My experience with salesperson Anthony ("Tony") and sales manager Kevin Monge was completely unacceptable and one of the most frustrating customer service experiences I have ever had. Before providing any personal information, I SPECIFICALLY asked Tony whether my boyfriend's credit would be run. His response was clear and unequivocal: "ABSOLUTELY NOT." He assured us that they would only review our current loan information to see whether there were any options available and that NO CREDIT INQUIRY would occur unless we were physically at the dealership and actively shopping for financing. Approximately 10 minutes after ending the call, my boyfriend received an Experian alert notifying him that Honda of Gardena had performed a HARD CREDIT INQUIRY. I immediately attempted to contact Tony. No answer. I then texted him requesting a call back. He responded that he was with a customer and would call later. I also repeatedly attempted to reach management. Instead, I was transferred from person to person, disconnected, and ultimately ignored. Several messages were left for sales manager Kevin Monge, NONE OF WHICH WERE RETURNED. To make matters worse, hours later Tony texted us offering a FREE TANK OF GAS for the "inconvenience." A FREE TANK OF GAS?!?!?! You placed a hard inquiry on my boyfriend's credit report after specifically assuring us that his credit would NOT be run, and your solution was a tank of gas? I drive a hybrid. I can pay for my own gas. All I asked was for someone to take accountability, acknowledge the mistake, and work with the credit department to correct what appears to have been an employee error. Instead, we received the runaround, silence, excuses, and some of the worst customer service I have ever encountered. BUYERS BEWARE!!! If you choose to do business with this dealership, GET EVERYTHING IN WRITING and think very carefully before providing any personal information. Based on our experience, verbal assurances apparently mean NOTHING. A hard inquiry on his credit for two years that dinged his score!!!!! read more

I posted about this 10 months ago, and I am writing to provide an update on this situation. My lease ended in November 2022, and I purchased the vehicle. When finalizing the purchase agreement, the finance manager asked me to sign without offering any explanation, resulting in over $9000 worth of add-ons being included to my finance amount. I immediately submitted a request to that same finance manager to cancel the add-ons, but as of 08/11/2026 nothing was done, the charges still remain part of my loan balance. I'm sure that he intentionally ignored my request for his own personal gain. I intend to confront them with these facts and demand a full refund. if they refuse to comply, I am prepared to take legal action. They are nothing but smooth talkers- a group of scammers interested only in swindling money. In fact, I have already been defrauded by them. read more

They will slide in some funky tracking device in your car, charge you money for that device and sell it to insurance companies for money. At the day of purchase I requested no tracking devices in my car, they lied and told me its Honda's inbuilt tracking. False, it's a Traking device called "Rockledge" Do not trust anyone of them, they all are part of this. Please remove the tracking device from my car and I can update my review accordingly. read more

I must say I was very skeptical about coming here at first due to the stories I heard about them not having inventory and people waiting 3-6 days for them to get they car but I seen what I wanted online, came to check it out and I ended up leaving with that exact car. JB (sales associate) & Nader (finance manager) secured me a good deal for being a first time buyer and I got a newer model car with everything I wanted . Big shout out to JB & Nader for being true to they word and getting me approved and getting me in my car read more

shout out to Kevin & Mili for their great customer service. It's always a pleasure coming to Honda Gardena.

If you value your time, double-check everything before driving to this dealership. They used a classic, frustrating strategy on me: promised a vehicle was available, pushed me to come in, and then didn't actually have the car when I showed up. This dealership needs to seriously change its ways of doing business. Stop promising cars you don't have just to trap customers at a desk. It's disrespectful, dishonest, and a guaranteed way to lose business. Zero stars for customer service and business ethics. read more

Discrepancy between agreed price and final contract terms--exercise caution I am writing this review to share my experience regarding a significant pricing discrepancy during my recent purchase at Honda Gardena. During negotiations, we agreed on a specific purchase price for the vehicle. However, upon reviewing the final paperwork and Retail Installment Sales Contract, the listed purchase price was significantly higher than the amount we had agreed upon prior to signing. Paying brand-new vehicle pricing for a pre-owned car due to unexplained line-item or unrequested additions is unacceptable. I have documented the original quotes alongside the final contract numbers and am currently attempting to resolve this directly with management. What needs to happen: I expect Honda Gardena management to honor the originally agreed-upon figures, correct the contract line items, and refund or credit any unauthorized price increases. I am open to updating this review once management takes concrete steps to correct this issue. Until then, I advise future buyers to carefully inspect every line item on their final paperwork before leaving the finance office. read more

I had an appointment set for cinco de Mayo with one of the sales team members named Angel Rivera. I planned to surprise my mother with an upgrade for her 2024 Civic for her birthday. I had already confirmed the appointment. However, I received two phone calls from an unknown number today. Once at work. I was not able to answer. The second at home in the evening. The call came in when I was having dinner at home with my family. I answered. My mother overheard the phone call and found out about her surprise appointment tomorrow. The surprise that I had planned for her was ruined. I do not appreciate the high pressure sales environment. If that's how you guys handle loyal customers that aren't there yet, I can only imagine how much pressure you guys will force when I'm there. I am really upset and disappointed. I like Mr. Rivera that's why I specifically reached out to him to handle all of needs. I do not need anyone else calling me multiple times at work and at home. If I made an appointment I do not need anyone else involved to remind me of what I need to do. At just a few days away from my 32nd birthday I think that I am old enough to not be treated like a child by you guys reminding me of my schedule. As I said before. I like Mr. Rivera. Unfortunately, I am canceling my appointment for tomorrow and indefinitely. You ruined the special moment I had planned. DO NOT CALL ME OR EMAIL ME ANYMORE! read more

Michael V the salesman, Alex the financeman, DJ, the sales manager, and Jabryan: These guys' customer service exceeds all HOSPITALITY STANDARDS AND PROTOCOL when stewarding and caring for us as car buyers and lessers. They are such assets and blessings to this dealership, they need to value all of them and cherish them with all they have while they are here because they are beyond fortunate to have all of these guys at this organization. They went above and beyond to get me a vehicle l'd never imagine nor thought I would be driving, which is a 2026 Honda Civic: Sports Edition, but with my decent credit, they worked miracles by getting me into this car. I was so fortunate to have them all service me and my needs. They truly have the customer's best interests at heart.

I recently purchased a new 2026 Honda CRV Hybrid from Gardena Honda and wanted to share how wonderful my experience was with David, Amalia, and Shaddi. I have been a Toyota owner for the past 13 years and truly never thought I would drive anything other than a Toyota. But the moment I test drove the Honda, I completely fell in love with it -- and so did my 9-year-old! Although the entire process, from the test drive to finally getting the keys, was long and a bit exhausting, David and Amalia made the experience feel warm and comfortable for us. By the time we were wrapping up, it was already past dinner time, and they made sure we had snacks and beverages. David even gave my son his entire medium pizza because he was so hungry -- which we thought was incredibly kind (and honestly pretty funny!). David worked as quickly as he could to help us get through the finance process and get us on our way. Amalia was incredibly sweet and even helped me clean out my Prius so I could transfer everything into my new car and get home faster. I also want to thank Shaddi, who really made the deal happen by getting my monthly payment even lower than what I had asked for. That meant a lot and truly made the purchase possible for me. Their kindness, patience, and genuine care turned what could have been a stressful and exhausting process into a really memorable experience. I'm so grateful for their help and would absolutely recommend working with David, Amalia, and Shaddi if you visit Gardena Honda. I love my new CRV!! read more

Be careful when you take your vehicle to GARDENA HONDA. They will rip you off , not fix the problem and then charge you more money when you bring your car back in for the same issue. I took my car to this location because my air-conditioning was not working in my vehicle. They charged me over $2700 to get the problem fixed and it did not get fixed. Took my car there 3 times for the SAME ISSUE A/C. On the third time they wanted to charge me another $3000 to fix the problem which they didn't fix the first 2 times. The third time I took my car up there they held it for two weeks end result.... I still have no AC in my car. I will never take my car to this place again nor will I recommend anyone to go here for any type of service to your vehicle. If you do BEWARE . read more

I had a poor experience dealing with this dealership. I'll be fair and say I was asking for a very aggressive deal that was probably unlikely. But instead of just telling me it wasn't possible, they made it seem like they could do it and kept calling and texting me. I told them I could only do 0 down and $250/month after taxes. They came back with things like $3,500 down and $199/month saying it "comes out to $250," and then $1,500 down and $250/month. I told them I couldn't do either, and I asked if the second quote was after taxes, but instead of answering directly they kept rambling about other things like how other customers are paying $500. At that point I already knew they couldn't get to my number, so I thanked them for trying and running numbers. But they kept calling and texting without giving straight answers and kept trying to get me to come into the dealership. When I got fed up, they even said things like "72 x 250 is 18,000 ma'am," which felt like they were implying I was being unreasonable. Which doesn't make sense because I was asking for a 36 month lease quote idk where they got 72 months from. I also texted the manager later just to confirm if the quote was after taxes and never got a response. I understand my ask wasn't realistic, but my issue is they kept making it seem possible, kept contacting me, and wouldn't give clear answers. It just felt like a lot of run around and wasted time. I value people that are honest. read more

Since the minute I drove in their parking lot. I was greeted by Chris and I felt comfortable. Chris is very nice and not pushy at all, like other sales people. He listened to my needs, gave me options and did not pressure me at any time. He was very patient with me since I was indecisive on what vehicle to get. He advocated for me and got me the best deal possible. Then Luis helped me through the finance process. He was also very nice and made the process very simple to understand. Financing was easy and fast. Overall, my experience was great at Gardena Honda. It's the first time I buy a Honda and I'm very happy I did. Thanks Gardena Honda. I will recommend you to my family and friends. read more

Please see my prior reviews for detailed information on Gardena Honda. This review is long and detailed so If you have problems smogging your Honda see them about it and I'm sure they can help you -- California has become a nightmare with the new regulations. This update is to praise the service team -- the drama that I have been through at the test only smog station to get my car smogged with the new computed regulations in California has been a nightmare. My Honda Accord Sport failed the smog pre test I was absolute perplexed because my car is in fantastic shape and my prior cars have always passed a smog test but now the computer for my Accord says "Cat Not Ready" . He can't smog it because it will fail and says that I don't drive it enough and to drive the car over 200 miles and try again I do drive my car so I'm like wth -- anyway 4 more attempts later it failed again and again now I'm annoyed. My daughter drove me on the freeway all over Los Angeles to Inglewood 60+ miles and back then and it failed. My sister drove all over Los Angeles Glendale Manhattan Beach Downey and back it failed wth is the problem I'm soo over this ish with the computer saying "Cat Not Ready". Drive a few hundred miles more they say and I'm pissed off. What more can I do this is so stupid I'm not built for all that freeway and street driving it's making my joints flare up I have rheumatoid arthritis and I am feeling miserable. I called Gardena Honda speaking to a mechanic named Art he pulled my maintenance records the entire history and says my car is in great condition low mileage etc etc but he gave me hope this problem would be handled by the Gardena Honda maintenance team - he told me what they could do to get the car "Smog Ready" I was amped and given a 9:00 am Appointment for Wednesday 4/16/25 I met with Art he wrote up the issues re: the smog and what I needed done to get the car smog ready and the mechanic drove it off to get started. I waited in the lounge area its very comfortable I bought a packed lunch and a book -- they have a bunch of vending machine filled with food and sandwiches snacks drinks candy iced coffee soda etc and free coffee I relaxed and the time flew bye they told me it was ready at 11:30 am. Art told me to go immediately to a Test Only Station I did and my car passed the smog test in 20 minutes. I am so grateful for everything Gardena Honda .. Thanks a bunch to the team who worked on my car you're awesome. My sister Loni C. Is retired from American Honda Corporate purchasing all of her Honda's from the company and purchased this car from Gardena Honda as well regularly servicing it all 13 1/2 years she owned it that's why it's in this amazing condition. I am the current owner and her sister and have continued to have it serviced here at Gardena Honda as well. Thank you Gardena Honda. Art & the service department mechanics.

After at least 10 unreturned phone calls, I finally went into the dealership and happened to run into our sales guy.

My experience at Gardena Honda was not pleasant. A few of the verbal promises were not fulfilled (always get it in writing) and at the end of day the let me drive off with a vehicle that had an issue I had mentioned during the test drive , before signing a contract and driving off w it. I return to address this issue and I'm being brushed off. If the car is BRAND NEW why does it already have an issues ?!?!? So now I'm stuck here at the dealership dealing with people that only wanted to sell me the car , now all of a sudden no one can help me ? If I could give a 0 star I would. NEVER AGAIN read more

I just had a total loss and am in the market for a vehicle. Sales person contacted me with a great offer over the phone.

I recently visited Gardena Honda with my wife to look at certified pre-owned SUVs. At first, things started off well. A salesman greeted us warmly and showed us a 2024 CR-V Hybrid with about 18k miles on it. The vehicle, however, had no window sticker. When I asked for the price, I was told it was \$37k. We took it for a test drive, and afterward, I said I was interested and wanted to negotiate. The salesman was fine with that and had us sit down inside. He asked to run my credit, but I told him I wanted to settle on a price first. While waiting, I decided to look up the listing online and found the exact same vehicle posted on their own website for \$32k. That immediately raised a red flag. The salesman eventually came back with a "discounted" price of \$36.5k, which I found insulting considering the online price was already \$32k. When I pointed this out, the sales manager, Isaac, got involved. Unfortunately, his approach was unprofessional from the start. He claimed the vehicle had \$7.5k worth of dealer add-ons like paint protection and an alarm system. After negotiating, he brought an offer of \$32k, with an additional $2.5k in alarm and paint protection, bringing back up to \$34k. He then insisted the offer was only good for that day, pressuring me to commit immediately. To make matters worse, during the negotiation Isaac asked me why I was "talking weird" and suggested I might be recording him simply because my phone was on the table. I found this comment completely out of line. He later added, "Well, nobody is holding a gun to your head," when I asked if I had to purchase the vehicle today at that price instead of going home to think about it, which is a wildly inappropriate thing to say to a customer. Even after supposedly removing some add-ons(alarm and paint protection), Isaac then said I would have to purchase gap insurance at \$1,200 and finance the vehicle for 84 months with Honda in order to qualify for the price. Forcing a customer into a specific loan term and add-ons just to get the advertised price is unfair and misleading. At that point, I walked out. This dealership needs to do better. I have worked in sales and professional environments myself, and I would never treat a client the way we were treated here. Between the hidden markups, pressure tactics, and unprofessional remarks, I cannot recommend Gardena Honda. read more

This is the second David Wilson-owned dealership where I've had a bad experience in the span of one week. This time it was their Honda dealership. My previous issue was with their Toyota dealership in Claremont. I drove 1.5 hours each way a total of three hours of my day expecting to finalize a deal. I had been in communication with a salesperson for nearly two weeks. Initially, I was told the car I wanted had been sold, only to be contacted again 7-8 days later and told the previous customer's financing "didn't go through." While I understand deals fall apart, waiting over a week for a financing decision seems unusual. I forgot to mention this was a Certified Pre Owned. The most frustrating part of this experience was being told I was only allowed to put a maximum of $5,000 down. I have never heard of this in all my years of buying vehicles. A down payment is a down payment it goes toward the purchase price of the car. We have strong credit and have been approved Tier 1 at every other dealership we visited. Despite this, we were quoted an 8.64% interest rate with a hard cap on the down payment. Forcing a higher interest rate while limiting the buyer's ability to reduce the loan amount feels unrealistic and unethical. At that point, I walked away. I value my time, and I especially don't appreciate having it wasted at a dealership. Had I known this Honda dealership was David Wilson owned, I would have moved on immediately. read more

Absolutely 10 out of 10. I have literally never had a car shopping experience that was so seamless and fun. Serge was our sales guy and he was amazing. Top tier customer service from the time we pulled into the lot. He really got us a great deal. De'jon in finances equally amazing and funny. He made sure that everything was explained thoroughly. There was absolutely no pressure to buy. We came to this dealership purely by chance. I had visited another Honda dealership that was closer to where at home but the service was horrible. This was the best decision that we ever made. I will definitely tell all of my friends and family that are looking for a car to check out Gardena Honda. You guys are absolutely the best. read more

Do not recommend this dealership. Before visiting, I confirmed that a 2026 Honda Civic Sport Touring Hybrid was available and was told that it was. After arriving, I was informed that the vehicle was actually never available and would need to be ordered instead. At the time, I was driving a rental, and the dealership promised to provide me with a loaner vehicle until my car arrived. Unfortunately, that promise was not kept. I made multiple attempts to coordinate picking up the loaner, but communication was poor and responses were either delayed or nonexistent. By the time the car arrived about a week later, I had given up on getting the loaner they had promised. The negotiation process was also frustrating. The dealership initially tried to push me toward an $800 monthly payment and made it extremely difficult to get a clear out-the-door price. I felt like there was a constant effort to upsell extras rather than provide transparent pricing. My salesperson was Omar, and Ivan finalized the paperwork. Even after completing the purchase, I've repeatedly requested a finalized copy of my vehicle contract. To this day, neither Omar nor Ivan has provided it. My requests have either gone unanswered or I've been told they're unavailable. Overall, the lack of transparency, poor communication, broken promises, and difficulty obtaining basic paperwork made this a disappointing experience. I recommend shopping elsewhere if you're looking for better customer service and a more straightforward buying process. read more

My Honda Civic needed some tender loving care (oil change, tire rotation, etc). Stopped by Gardena Honda for the lowest price in the city.

RUN. A basic expectation when buying a vehicle from a dealership is that they can properly register it and provide plates and stickers in a timely manner. In fact, in California this is the law. I purchased my vehicle from Gardena Honda in November. My plates didn't show up for over 2 months and my temporary registration they had given me was about to expire. I called the DMV to find out what to do. They told me plates were issued a month earlier and mailed to the dealership. It took me SIXTEEN phone calls (4 voicemails and leaving my name and number to be called back 7 times) to the dealership to get a live person on the phone who could actually answer my question. My call was forwarded to a voicemail 4 times and I left my name and number SIX different times being told they would call me back. I sent urgent emails to the General Manager, Customer Relations, anything I could find and still I heard nothing back. When I finally got someone on the phone, they said they never received the plates from the DMV and that the plates were shipped to my home address on file. They told me there must have been an issue with my address & that I should order replacement plates and stickers myself. They told me this "happens all the time" and blamed the DMV. A week later, plates show up at my doorstep. These are NOT the replacements that I just ordered & paid for through the DMV. Instead, the USPS tracking info shows Gardena Honda created a shipping label for my plates on January 20th and they sat at the dealership for a MONTH - the package was not actually handed to USPS until February 20th (a full month later and 2 days AFTER I finally got someone on the phone who told me they never came!) During that time, my temporary registration expired, leaving me driving in uncertainty. To make matters worse, when the plates finally arrived from the dealership, the registration card indicated a sticker had been issued, but no sticker was included. Therefore, I am STILL stuck waiting for the replacement plates that I now had to obtain on my own AND driving with temporary plates that are expired in the meantime. The USPS tracking timeline (photo attached) directly contradicts what I was told. At best, this reflects extremely poor internal controls and a lack of accountability. At worst, customers are being given inaccurate information to deflect responsibility. Registration is not optional. It is a legal requirement. A dealership that cannot manage something this basic is failing at one of the core responsibilities of selling a vehicle. Proceed with caution. read more

Thank the used car gods that I didn't buy a car from them. The interaction I had with Isaac on the phone while negotiating on a used car brought out so many red flags. Isaac hit on every single one of the used car salesman stereotypes. Pushy? Very! Rude? Extremely! Greedy? You got it! Then he hung up on me while I was mid sentence probably because he knew I wasn't falling for his tactics. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. read more

My last 3 cars were purchased here. It was really satisfied with their service until they bamboozled me. When I purchased my last 2026 CRV here, our deal included 2 free oil changes. After I had the first one done, I confirmed I still Had one more in credit. They confirmed. When it was time for my second and last oil change, they said I had used up the free oil change services. I asked to speak to a manager, and was put on hold for about 15min. When the receptionist got back to me, she said they were too busy (which is understandable). So I left a message for a call back which she suggested. Waited all day, no call back. Tried the next following 2 days to reach someone, no call back. At this point I will take my car somewhere else. Buyers beware of your deals and get maintenance deals on paper. They will bribe you with a free tank of gas, or oil changes in return for a "five star survey" and don't deliver. Five star reviews are now questionable. Only because I know that majority have been Bribed for feedback. Unfortunately they didn't deliver with my last promise of a a free oil change. read more
