We bought our a NEW car this weekend, a first-in-our-lifetime-event for both me and my wife! We've been in the market for a while, have test-driven and researched our hearts out. Rocket Town Honda surpassed all of our expectations. They put us in the perfect car, which they actually had in stock (so many other dealerships had almost no inventory), it's beautiful, and the warranties and extras they gave us are out of this world generous. Our salesman, Jonathon, was friendly and eager to help us from the moment we drove on the lot. Melissa in parts was super friendly and helped us quickly get an additional accessory for our beautiful new CR-V. We plan to buy a second car in the next year or so, and will definitely be back to see the good folks at Rocket Town. read more

Horrible customer service!!! I came in on 12/13 to get a oil change. I booked the day before online for the next day at 1pm. As I was on my way I called the store to double check. My appointment was booked correctly. The young lady on the Phone, who answered said yes. I arrived right at one. I walked in and saw two receptionist. I went to the receptionist that was not on the phone and seemed not busy at the moment. I was told that the only person that could help me was the gentleman on the Phone, since oil changes were in his department. She told me that he was on the phone, and that he would be with me as soon as he was done with the Phone call. I understand that there are phone calls that need to be handled and other customers who need to be handled as well. I stood and waited to be helped with for 20 minutes. I understand that there are circumstances such as a phone call that can make things be delayed, but at the very least I could have been told at least a "I'm so sorry for the delay. I'll be with you shortly. Thank you for your patience. " SOMETHING!!! But I got told nothing and stood there for 20 minutes. I just left because I could not wait anymore, and I am currently moving from Oxnard to Lompoc. I was hoping to at least get my oil change out of the way.I decided to leave because 20 minutes is just ridiculous!!! I went ahead and called rocket town to tell them I was upset that I had to wait that long, and possibly try to book another appointment. But the same young lady. Just told me "He is the only one who can help you." I KNOWWWW THATTTT!!! But again, as someone who works in customer service, you should at least apologize and find a solution for a upset customer . I originally posted a low rated review on Google about this situation after this happened. That same day that I posted my Google review. I got a response from rocket Town apologizing for the situation and proceeded to say that I could call in and ask for Wes to possibly get a employee price on a oil change and rebook an appointment. Which at first I was hesitant, but I wanted to give my new local Honda dealer a chance. The following day 12/14 I called and asked for Wes twice. The first time no one answered, and I left a voicemail. I called again and someone answered, and they informed me that Wes was not in and he'll be in tomorrow. I proceeded to ask if they could possibly just assist me to go ahead and book an appointment for my oil change. The other person on the phone told me. "I can't help you with that. That is another department. " I understood and ended the call and went ahead booked another appointment online for December 15th. The morning of the 15th. I called again, hoping to speak to Wes. The person who answered the phone hung up on me as soon as I asked for him. I also want to preface that the reason why I was so upset about this situation is because I had to go to work in Santa Barbara on Sunday the 14th and I had to go to LA on the Monday the 15th. So it was urgent to me to get my oil change. I even left my car with my boyfriend and switched cars with him for the long commuting I had for the next 2 days. So he could take my car for the second oil change appointment I made here since he didn't have work on Monday December the 15th. But again, this dealer just is full of disappointment. I went ahead and booked a oil change for the Honda in Santa Maria for Monday the 15th and got helped with immediately. I will never be returning here. I would choose wisely if you plan on visiting here. read more

Rocket Town Honda - The original response from rocketown honda about my review on google - Car Dealers Near Me - Lompoc, California

Do NOT buy a car from Rockettown Honda in Lompoc. I created a Yelp account specifically for this review. This is how sales manager Wes Hofner and sales associate Steve treated a single, working mom of 2 kids. I bought a used 2025 Honda Pilot 2.5 months ago that came with aftermarket crossbars. Sales guy Steve wanted to detail the car, fill it with gas and deliver it to my house. "If anything is wrong with the car, I'll make it right". Great! Got the car and noticed a whistling/static noise when driving at highway speeds. Since the car is still under warranty and I live 1.5 hrs away from Lompoc, I called Rockettown Honda to see if I could take it to a local dealership and it be covered. They said yes. Turns out the crossbars weren't installed correctly and was causing the noise. 1. I wasn't provided the keys to the crossbars at the time of purchase. They later mailed me keys that didn't work. I had to take it to a locksmith to get re-keyed. They reimbursed me $41-- cool. (shout out to Melissa in the parts department for making sure I got reimbursed). 2. Per Rockettown Honda's advice, took it to a local Honda dealership to get the issue fixed, assuming it would be covered under warranty-- it was not due to it being an aftermarket product. Since the crossbar screw was stripped, it couldn't be reinstalled correctly either. Now I'm out $200 plus the cost of new crossbars. 3. Finally got ahold of Wes Hofner, sales manager, who was -- well, I'll let you decide. After catching him up to speed on the situation and requesting reimbursement for the $200 I had to pay out of pocket to get the crossbars removed and new crossbars be sent to me. He refused. He told me "I wouldn't even need take it in to get them removed, I would have just done it myself" and "why am I just now hearing about this when you bought the car 2 months ago". Advised again, as a single, working mom with limited income/time I had called 11 times over the last 2.5 months and had spoke to several employees with no resolution. Reiterated what Steve had said at the time of purchase-- " "If anything is wrong with the car, I'll make it right". He told me to take it up with Steve. Surprise, I can't get ahold of Steve and he won't return my voicemails. Don't be like me. DON'T buy a car from Rockettown Honda in Lompoc. I'll be filing a complaint with Corporate Honda and putting poor reviews on anything and everything I can due to the way this situation was handled. read more

I would NOT recommend using Rocket Honda. Steve, the sales manager, would not return my calls for 2 days. My son had ended up signing a contract, and putting down a deposit on a truck there. This contract included a $2000 "Interior Warranty" unknowingly, and totally shady. No description was given. Steve said he needed to make money as well, so he's in 'cahoots' with this Interior warranty company. He was totally rude, arrogant, and utterly unprofessional. Go ANYWHERE else but Rocket Honda! read more

Absolutely. I will only rate a place after I've been here a handful of times to gauge the full atmosphere of a place. Sometimes a place can be good, sometimes it can be bad, and sometimes it can be indifferent. Every time I have come to this location, since 2016, I have had a great experience. I bought my very first car on my own from this dealer. They were not pushy at all, answered all of my questions, allowed me to drive every model to make sure I was absolutely sure it was the car I can afford and want. Since, I have had every repair, oil change, filter changes, and inspection done here only. After 9 years, I came in and traded for a new car. They took me through new financing options and again, made sure I was thoroughly taken care of, and again answered all of my concerns and questions. I had never leased a vehicle before, always bought, and they made me comfortable of this decision. The reason why I have rated RTH a 5 star, is because there was a significant change in my life and my newly leased vehicle was no longer viable for my lifestyle. After only 7 days, they allowed me to get a different model that was within my budget, had the features that I loved, and gave me no hassle. They were supportive and treated me with respect the entire time. As long as I can, I will buy from RTH because I have that peace of mind with them. I can't speak for any other dealership, but this place gave me the comfort of knowing I am making an informed decision with a great deal attached. read more

Unfortunately, we had a dismally unsettling experience here. While test driving a car, my fiancé kindly asked our sales person if it was okay to step on the gas a little on the highway to test the "pick-up" power of the vehicle. We never went over 80 mph. He also asked if it was okay to make a sharper turn to test the handling and the sales person emphatically said "yes, just don't crash the car." Our salesperson even went so far as to say that he used to drive a sports car and would routinely drive 145 mph, especially when he "ran from the cops." Anyway, the test drive went relatively well and when we returned to the dealership he went inside to fetch the keys to a second car. An angry manager came out, red in the face, claiming that we made our salesperson wildly uncomfortable and fear for his safety. He said that we needed to leave at once. I explained to him and the owner that we politely asked to test the pickup and maneuverability of the car and the salesperson agreed. He admitted that maybe it was an issue with the training of his staff but insisted that we leave the premises. At the same time the owner of the lot asked us how soon we were looking to purchase a car as if wanting to negotiate a deal. We were bewildered by the dissonance and incredible unprofessionalism of the staff and management. The salesperson hid in the back while the management, who did not personally witness any of our driving, accused us of endangering his staff. For the record. I am a cancer patient who is in chemotherapy and suffer from extreme nausea and carsickness. The driving my fiancé did during the test drive was tame enough for an infant. Although our neighbors had warned us about the bizarre behavior exhibited by the staff at this dealership, we went in with goodwill. This dealership employs way too many untrained salespeople and pits them against one another, contributing to their unease and insecurity. Management doesn't trust them and hovers over them like creepy overlords. Avoid at all costs if you don't want the ick. read more

The sales manager John is ruining business for his employees. And based on other reviews, it seems like other people have had similar experiences. On our first trip there, John was rude to his employee right in front of my husband which is extremely unprofessional and uncomfortable. Jonathon and Trevor were a great help while we were discussing numbers and looking at the vehicles, they kept in contact with my husband, answering any questioning he had and really were doing a phenomenal job. unfortunately the sales manager John and his behavior caused my husband to walk out of the dealer without the car. Do yourself a favor and drive the extra 20 minutes to the Santa Maria location. read more

I called Rocket Town Honda for pricing on a new car. I advised them I was pre approved with my credit union, had cash in hand and a flawless credit score. The salesman (Mike) advised he would have the sales manager (Steve) call me back, since he was not authorized to do so. After no returned call from Steve, I called him. He acknowledged the conversation immediately threw Mike down for not returning my call. Steve advised he would not provide me with pricing on the phone in the event I went elsewhere. He went on to say he had 30 years of experience and it has never worked. Steve was very arrogant. I advised him I was also looking for good customer service, which he said he would provide. Customer service began with this phone call and they were unable to prove it. I went to Kirby Subaru of Ventura and the entire deal was done over the phone. It was flawless and took no time at all. Rocket Town lost a deal and they probably do not care. Kirby Subaru is even delivering the car to Lompoc for no extra charge. Do not waste your time with Rocket Town Honda! All other dealers, including Sunset Honda worked the deal over the phone. Go to Kirby Subaru of Ventura and ask for Ricky! read more

So I was in the position of having to purchase a new vehicle rather quickly. I went to Rocket Town Honda and was shown a vehicle that had all the options that I requested. Cayla Riley was very helpful, showed me and my mother the car and had us drive it and led me through the process. Steve Stark the sales manager was great. I was driving a rental vehicle from SLO Subaru (Unfortunately not a dealer I can recommend) and needed to return it and get my Subaru to trade in. Steve sent one of his people to SLO to return my rental and bring back my vehicle. All in all it was a very easy and quick process and I am very happy with my new Honda! read more

Rocket Town Honda gave us a very cooperative, considerate, and collaborative experience that we will not soon forget. We needed a new car for our growing family, and we were especially interested in a CR-V to fulfill this need. We were told to go to Sunset Honda in San Luis Obispo. We were told that they had great service and would help us purchase the car we needed at the price we could afford. However, their add-ons and pre-installed gizmos were mandatory... in other words, we didn't have a choice as to whether we wanted them or not. Why is this a problem? Because Sunset's add-ons shot up the price of the CR-Vs by $3,000-$5,000! We simply couldn't afford the vehicle. But at Rocket Town, they generally did not do that to their vehicles. We are glad that we went there because Ray and Steve (customer sales representative and sales manager, respectively) really went out of their way for us. Ray was really good at communication and staying in touch. He had an eagerness about him that was not overwhelming to us. Steve seemed to really want to help us achieve a fair and equitable transaction. Together, they found us precisely the car we were looking for. There are many local Honda dealerships with good reputations, and you may feel that you should follow advice and visit them first. But I recommend give the "little guy" your attention. They just might come through for you like Rocket Town did for us. read more

Should have gone to SM where I purchased my Honda at. Had an appointment for service and tech "forgot" about my vehicle then I got a nice scratch on my new car. Never again. read more

Update: Just found out the car they sold me that had supposedly done a full inspection on was a car where the engine was swapped out with a different one that doesn't even go to this car. The computer was tampered with. The coolant hoses are bypassing major components of the engine. Brakes were wrong pads for car. The wiring is missing two spots in engine. The throttle body is wrong one and is broken. They sold me basically a piece of junk that wasn't inspected. Please do not buy a used car at this place. read more

I was highly disappointed with Sunset Honda, because of their add-ons which brings cost up by thousands, and instead of honoring their advertisement of $1,000 over Blue-Book on trade-ins, they lower their offer by $1,000. Santa Maria Honda refused to give dealers asking prices over the phone. Discourage/disappointed with the whole buying a car experience, I took a chance and phoned Rocket Town Honda. Much to my surprise they gave me a fair price on my trade in and went above and beyond in the sale. Thank you for your honesty and for not wasting mine or your own time! I have never had such a smooth transaction in buying a vehicle. Steve, Sue, and Cayla you are greatly appreciated; you three are examples of how the customer should be treated- unfortunately, a rarity these days. read more

Purchased a vehicle here in 2020- through no effort on their part. We did all our research and made decisions online prior to going in. The salesperson got lucky bc he was clueless. If we were not in a rush to buy we would have gone elsewhere. He did not know facts of the vehicle, took forever to get information we asked and tried changing things right before we signed. Since then- we have gotten 3-4 different recalls & needed 2 services (one extensive that required us going back and forth for a month!) 99% of the people that work there are clueless- including the manager! The maintenance person who worked on our car left random screws in the back- where my kids car seats are- scratched the car console and broke my screen protector on the display. We've have nothing but negative experiences with them. Yet we keep getting calls from sales a "Jonathan" with a scripted message and call. He doesn't even read his messages so I don't understand the attempted effort- I have replied stating I have no interest in business there and still the texts. Today he leaves a voicemail where you can hear him laughing and joking with coworkers then realizing he is on the phone! Do yourself a favor and never let these people have your number or do business here. read more

Where do I begin, I bought a brand new Honda Civic from them in 2021. I told them I wanted my license plates transferred from my current vehicle to my new vehicle, and they assured me that they could do this. When I received my vehicle, with its temporary plates, I received my permanent plates in the mail but they were not transferred over. When I returned to Honda to have them fix this, they assured me they could. But of course they contacted me two days later and stated that they couldn't. I then went to AAA and they took care of it in 15 minutes. I paid for rear USB plugs, so that my passengers could charge their phones in the back seat. Seat. They said that they would contact me when the part came in but they did not have it in stock. They never did. Recently. I went back to them and asked them to fix this and they told me, " that it was too long ago and there's nothing they could do. So they basically took money from me but did not give me the product that I paid for, which means they stole from me. My stepfather went in to trade in his Honda CRV for a new CRV. Firstly, they didn't want to haggle with him and it took a few weeks for them to reach out to my stepfather and agree to a price that both my stepfather and the dealership could agree to. When he went back to finalize some of the paperwork he told them that the check that he wrote them hadn't cleared the bank yet. They basically lost his check and had to find it. This dealership has terrible customer service, it is not willing to go above and beyond to make things right when they make these errors. You're better off going to Honda of Santa Maria. read more

While I was able to find a car I was happy with, it was no thanks to the sales associates. They have such high turnover, that the "senior" of the sales reps helping us was there less than two weeks and was being shadowed by a person on his first day. Neither knew anything about the vehicle (entertainment, system updates, capabilities, etc). Then the owner came to tell us how amazing things like the adaptive cruise control was (this year didn't include this feature, which I only figured out after the fact). We purchased the car outright, never received our plates, and the dealership is doing nothing to help us in the situation now that the tags are expired. Completely unprofessional for such a large purchase. They even told us the car we were trading in was junk and would be sent to another dealership. It was on the lot the following day for over twice what they paid us (I don't care as much about the value as the fact that they said they would have no ability to put it on their own lot, a flat out LIE). In short, the owner didn't know about the vehicle, the sales reps didn't know anything about the vehicle, and now follow-up experience means they will not receive my family's positive word of mouth or future business. read more

Wife went in for an oil change on a 2021 Lexus UX (0W-16: 5 Quarts) and was charged $130. The car has a 4 cylinder engine with similar access as our 2020 Toyota 4Runner (0W-20; 6.6 Quarts) which Lompoc Honda has also serviced and charges $89.00 Apparently she was charged the $50 premium because its a "Luxury" model. Every single time she or another FEMALE family member go in, they always get charged these mysterious prices. We will not be returning read more

Rocket Town Honda - Car Dealers Near Me - Lompoc, California

Saturday, we drove from Bakersfield to Rocketown Honda in Lompoc 2 1/2 hours 149 miles to purchase a certified pre owned 2022 Honda Civic Hatchback. This was my (19) year old sons first car buying experience. First, they tacked on an additional 10k & tried to sell us the warranty the car already came with. Thank goodness I was there and made them REMOVE ALL THAT CRAP (dishonest) My son removed taped registration in right corner and the windshield was severely chipped. My son spent his hard earned money to be cheated or conned by this act of deception. I've bought MANY vehicles in my lifetime & NEVER experienced SUCH DECEPTIVE practice. Who & why would purposefully hide that by covering it up? Certified Pre Owned Honda's are suppose to go through inspection process. Clearly they didn't care. When we test drove the car there were stickers hiding the crack as well. Thank goodness I took photos & can prove the car windshield was cracked before the car left the lot. But, when they took the car back it should have been brought to our attention. Instead it was purposely hidden/covered up by the registration slip. Much to my son's surprise when he removed the tape he was distressed! His new car was damaged. In addition, there appears to be some sort of black screen or electrical issue with the instrument system. I've contacted the dealership they offered to repair but, the trust is gone. Plus it's 2 1/2 hours away. Rockettowns deception & character is tarnished We don't trust them & won't be returning there. That windshield crack was hidden with sells stickers then the registration paper. We filed a complaint with American Honda & they agreed with us. I'll be taking the car to our mechanic to have the car diagnosed at Rocketowns expense. if there's any issues & something electrical needs repaired it will be repaired by our local dealer where I've bought several previous cars from. Buyer BEWARE of this shady place. read more

Went in to check out a newly-acquired 2017 Accord Hybrid posted on their website. TL;DR: DON'T SHOP HERE. *Two stars for being clean, and relatively professional Summary: Price was over KBB value, Agent provided false/misleading information about the car, lazy repairs were made, and dealer refused to negotiate and insisted on selling at $3k over KBB value. Resolution: Left the dealership, and found the exact car with 10k less miles, no body damage, and nearly $3k less expensive. Had "better deal" shipped to my door that week. Recommendation: DON'T SHOP HERE. Price over KBB: As pictured, a '17 Accord EX-L with 30k miles in "good" condition is NOT valued at $23k. Dealer argued that the overcharge was because a white '17 Accord Hybrid is "rare;" I had to keep myself from laughing. Lazy Repairs: Exterior damage was on both bumpers, on some of the doors, curb rash on all wheels, and the back-up camera was broken off and loose. Interior damage included several stains on the visors and a tarnished headliner. Agent said he'd get the car through the body shop for repairs, and the detailer to fix the interior issues. Made an appointment, spent an hour at the dealership and found the following: To detail some of their "repairs": - Road rash still present on front bumper, simply spray-painted over; rear bumper damage remained untouched. - Rear view camera was placed to look repaired, but fell loose with a light touch. - Headliner and visors were still dirty - Rims still had curb rash False/Misleading Information: - Dealer verbally stated that the car was a privately owned vehicle. CarFax showed it as a "fleet lease;" agent had to be challenged for him discuss the vehicles status - Dealer did not use KBB or Edmunds for their pricing; insisted that I was underestimating the vehicle and that my quotes were invalid No negotiations: -Their motto is "no haggle". They mean it! Unfortunately, that also means they expect you to pay inflated asking prices and refuse to negotiate. Even though this car had damage on every side, each rim face was curb-rashed, and had a dirty headliner I was still willing to buy it. They insisted on $23k. I hope this review helps someone. Do yourself a favor- don't shop at RocketTown unless you're savvy on car buying. I imagine they would've taken advantage of me if they could have. read more

In January 2024, my daughter test drove a CR-V Sport L Hybrid in San Luis Obispo and Santa Maria. Neither dealership would give her a reasonable offer because of all of the add-ons to the MSRP. We called around to many other dealerships but did not have any success until.... we called Rocket Town Honda in Lompoc. We really hit the jackpot when we connected with Vlad at Rocket Town. Vlad and I negotiated the deal over the phone and he held the car until we could get there. Wow! I was so impressed. As it turned out, Vlad is the owner, so he had us work with Edwin (salesman) to complete the deal. We were very impressed when Vlad insisted that Edwin bring the car out of detailing so that my daughter could see the car before signing any paperwork. In this day and age, it really means a lot when someone is so ethical and puts the customer first. He honored his word and the transaction was seamless! I will be highly recommending Rocket Town Honda dealership! Best Regards, Dawn Independent Insurance Agent and Financial Advisor read more

Rocket Town Honda - Honda CR-V Sport L Hybrid - Car Dealers Near Me - Lompoc, California

If I could give a 0 starts I would, my brother went to this Honda because he's searching for his new car, he's a first time buyer and because I have a Honda Pilot and have worked for Honda before I told him he could never go wrong with a Honda, so he wanted to come by and get a Honda Civic he saw on their website for 26K so I told him yes this is an amazing deal go for it, so he goes without me because unfortunately I was busy but I did explain to him some of this salespeople tactics, I have purchased vehicles before and know how the process goes. So my poor brother comes to this shit show dealer hoping he would get a good deal, already had that civic and price on lockdown now I do understand sometimes there will be taxes and some fees added when purchasing a new vehicle but never in my life did I imagine this people would take advantage of my brother, just because he was a first time buyer they thought they could start adding all this extra bs on the purchase agreement and they didn't think he would catch on, when he was in the process of researching and looking at options I prepared him very well and explained the process step by step. So the car online is listed for 26K, online they even offered a much lower option when you input your info online, they promise to unlock the price but they don't they have to call you, anyways I would like for someone to explain to me how does a car that costs 26K MSRP go from that to 40K dollars!???? That is INSANE!!!!! And they didn't even ask my brother if he wanted to add anything additional to the purchase agreement they just went ahead and added everything they wanted to add to this purchase without my brothers permission. Next thing they do they just pop out with $40,000 purchase agreement and expected him to sign without even going through it like really you are charging him $200 for wheel locks that when the vehicle goes to the pre-inspection, they already charge it to the store, make it make sense on top of that. They had a $2000 mark up to the MSRP for no reason they added some paint insurance that we don't need and they added two other things that I had no idea what they were. So that raised a huge red flag and after that, I told my brother to just bounce it's not worth to deal with people like this. All they worry about is making their commission check and not what the customer wants. I am extremely disappointed with this experience and we ended up going to Toyota got a brand new 2023 Toyota Camry for 33K!!! They went ahead and worked with us and listened to what my brother wanted and needed, that's how you do business and not scam people because you think they don't know how the process works so thankfully I prepared my brother for these type of people and glad he didn't get scammed by this store and their tactics, so disappointing. Don't come here if you ain't trying to get scammed, these people aren't transparent and they worried about is making they commission check read more

Terrible customer service and very misleading they will tell you one thing and then screw you over in the fine print 0/10 do not recommend they will screw you over read more

I've visited Rocket Town Honda only a few times. I received great customer service. I was very impressed.

Worst experience of my life. Went to rocket town Honda to trade in my civic for a prologue touring model. They only had a demo that they couldn't sell due to it being a new model and want people to test drive the vehicle. They said that they would have some in transit right now and should be here with in the next couple days. I'm okay how would that work with my trade in. They give me the run down how it works if you trade in your vehicle early and want to trade it for another Honda. I'm like okay sounds good because I've always wanted an ev was planing to trade it in anyways when my lease was up. I told Jona was the salesmen that was helping me and my fiancé out. Show me some numbers and if it works then let's make it happen. Well first they only put my car as fair, but it has low miles less than 24k for almost 3 yrs old normal wear and tear. My fiancé asked him why it's not good or excellent. Jona was like well excellent only for brand new still on the lot, and good it pretty much doesn't exist, so we're like okay. He said they are already giving me more on my trade cuz the paper said 18020 and they were giving me 18500 for it. Jona showed me some numbers based off good credit score. The payment but he's like we still need to run your credit just to confirm. Jona comes back was like oh your payment went down dollar lol. As the finance people were drawing up the paperwork my fiancé was talking to the owner and I guess the owner isn't from California but he owns this one and one in Chicago. My fiancé was like don't sign anything yet. We tell jona like hey my fiancé wants to test drive a car and he's like what there's not going be a deal now!? That shoulda been the first red flag because of his poor attitude. He suggested why doesn't she go with the owner and I go back to office and sit and sign the paperwork. While I was sitting down in jona office I guess the owner Vladimir was telling my fiancé that to get my car Honda certified it's going take like 2k to get it to Hondas standard and that they were going sell my car between 23-25k. While he's telling her the actual process I'm sitting there and Jona like ready I'm like I'm going wait for my fiancé . He's like what so there's not a deal anymore, I thought we had a deal, I'm going get in trouble and they're going to fire me if you dont sign. My fiancé finally comes back sign some papers. I still kept my car because they haven't provided me good or services yet. I haven't taken possession of the prologue yet due to it still being in transit. It's Tuesday now still haven't received the prologue and no updates on delivery. That day my fiancé and I was in San Luis Obispo and she wanted to test drive the Honda CRV hybrid since we didn't get to do that at rocket Honda because we showed up 90 mins before closing. I signed papers with them and took possession of the prologue right then and there. Even though I still had my car at my house because we drove up in my fiancé car. The following day I called up Lompoc Honda of the situation. Asked the receptionist to transfer me to the general manager and she just transferred me to a manager. The finance manager Dave picked up said he couldn't find my contract. I didn't have my contract with them because they never gave me a copy. He'll give me a call back. Well someone called me back but it wasn't him it was a female the director of sales and she's like you signed us a contract and your car is actually that's my car because borrower agreement. If you don't give us the car back We'll have to call the cops. I'm like okay let me call SLO and I hang up because she's acting like a Karen. I call slo while my fiancé is getting hold of a lawyer. 15 mins later Steve calls me which is the sales manager because they apparently don't have a General Manager. They need that car buy the end of the day or they will be calling the cops on and report it stolen. Even though the contract wasn't valid until I took possession of the prologue from them. I told him I'll drop it off at 530pm. SLO tells me to drive up the car and that they'll handle the situation and what they're doing and threatening you is not right. 530 comes around and Steve calls me asking for the car and I told him moving forward he can contact my attorney gave him the number and the GM of Sunset Honda, and he hangs up super fast and that was the end of that experience. read more

My son went in to inquire about prices of the new cars after receiving an email in all caps about $1000 under MSRP, amazing finance rates etc.... Anyway, the car he was interested in was only available with mandatory add-ons of Paint Treatment for $1400, and Security GPS tracker for $1400...Plus an additional dealer mark-up of $2000. When asked about taking off these add-ons we were told they were mandatory, they would not sell the car without them!!! And, we were told, "If you don't buy the car, someone else will" I miss the previous owners of this dealership. read more

Review for the service center: I always go to the Honda dealerships in the area to get my car serviced. I'm glad there was one near the military base! Overall, everyone was super friendly. My advisor, Eric, and owner were awesome and welcoming. I made an appointment online, which was quick and easy. I had an appointment at 8am on a Wednesday for an oil change and tire rotation and I was out of there by 9am. They also washed my car! They also have a few amenities when you get your car serviced. There's a free shuttle if you don't want to wait there. If you wait there, they have two large full body massage chairs! There's a tv, fire place, and refreshments like coffee and tea. You also have the option to leave your car keys in the drop box if you don't have time to go during business hours. The best part of my visit was meeting Koda. I think he may be the executive assistant to the owner. He's super friendly, attentive and just brightens up your day. He's also a golden doodle :) read more

See all

After being scammed, over charged and lied to by the manager and service department and raising prices (nearly $400 for diagnostics) HONDA lost my business FOR LIFE. I purchased a 2024 Kia Sportage that puts Honda to SHAME! Honda's technology looks like a 1980 DOS operating system (remember the black & green screens) Do yourself a favor and consider KIA 100,000 10 year warranty, free oil changes etc. and real integrity. All Honda had to do was correct their mistake that cost me thousands by replacing unnecessary parts and missing the problem completely. Our money talks. Don't give it to corporations that gauge and scam. We have too many choices. Bye Bye Honda! read more

Scammers. Charged an obscene amount of money for service, and checked with another mechanic and they didn't complete work

Called to get some information on tires. Received answers to all my questions, but wanted to do more homework on my options. Decided their offer was worthwhile, so I called back the next day to place an order. When I called, I was automatically sent to voicemail. Accordingly, I chose to leave a msg with the Service Dept, and included my name and phone number. Days later and nothing heard. Regrettable. RS read more

Slooooooow. Spent 2 and a half hours waiting for a simple oil change and coolant flush and we were one of the first customers there. It seems to me they were doing fuck-all in the back. Were they Googling what needed to be done or how to do it? Waste of my valuable time. I've had this service done before at a different shop and it didn't take near as long. They also try to nickel and dime you for services not needed. An example was that they were saying that my brake pads needed changing out. My brake pads were recently changed out. I know they were still good because We don't drive my car hard or ride the brakes at all the pads would not degenerate that quickly. Don't come here, there are plenty of other places for your car needs. read more

The service department sucks big time. Nobody is friendly. I wish Ray S. still worked there but he left several years ago and ever since then the service has been shitty from the service department. The labor cost more than the part did. When I asked if there was a chance to get a discount on the labor and I was told this is a hard job to do. Also another pet peeve is don't mess with my radio. It's really annoying when you get in your car there is no sound. Someone had it set to their iPod and not FM radio as I did when I checked my car in.I have been interested in buying a 2023 Honda hrv but after today I will be taking my business else where. If you need work done on your car please take your car to Honda of Santa Maria. I promise they will treat you like family and not a number. read more

When almost every other dealer was fleecing their patrons by adding on thousands to the MSRP Rockettown was one of the few dealers in CA that didn't. (Santa Maria Ford / Nissan and Mazda isn't padding their invoices either.) When I was ready to buy Wes had the car being detailed and it was ready to go when we got to town. Paperwork took a half hour and my wife was able to enjoy one of their complimentary Massage chairs while we finished everything up. Jona showed us all the features on our new car and we were on the road in no time. read more

Need that Dave guy back.. He was a worker.. One time I dropped my car off at 6:45am Dave was there.. Opening up then after I got off I went to pick it up at like 6 and Dave was still there.. Guy had drive... read more

I have been waiting over 5 months for them to fix my vehicle. They can't seem to pinpoint what is wrong with either the strut, or the bushing. Frustrating that every time I go there I expect them after a few visits to finally have an answer but no. Pre-COVID they were solid in all aspects for a car. From sales to service. Not quite sure what has happened since then. read more

I bought a 2018 Honda Civic here a few months ago. I wanted to wait until I got my cars first service before I put in a review because I figured they are probably going to be real nice until I buy the car and then after that they would just treat me with indifference and my needs would be put on the back burner. When I bought my car I was really treated kindly and with respect. I felt that Wes, those in finance and the salesmen went above and beyond the call of duty to get me matched with my perfect car. When I brought my car in for service the men were so kind, patient and quick. They had it done a half hour before their estimate of time. I would recommend Rocket Town Honda for anyone who is looking to buy a new car. They will do all they can to make it a smooth transition. read more

Rocket Town Honda - woohoo - Car Dealers Near Me - Lompoc, California

It's the not filling up the gas tank when I just spent $30,000 dollars with you for me.

I have purchased many vehicles from different dealerships and hands down Rocket Town Honda has been the best!! I worked with Edwin and he delivered everything as promised. Please lookup Edwin if you are in the market for a new vehicle. read more

Save time and money and DON'T go to Rocket Town Honda. The sales manager was blatantly lying and was very condescending. He tried to sell me on his used two-year-old CR-V with $21,000 miles on it for $54,000, saying it was worth more than the cost of a brand new 2023 CR-V with similar upgrades. He said if I was to order my new Honda online it would take over 2 years and would be much more expensive than the price quote. Both were lies. Do yourself a favor and skip this dealership. Honda of Santa Maria is much friendlier and you'll get a fair deal there. Go see Chris. read more

These people don't care about you. They falsely advertised the 4runner SR5 as a PREMIUM when it wasn't. They tried to tell me negative equity wasn't a bad thing to gain a sale. I understand being a salesman you want to make sales but when they do so unethically is not okay. I think of my family in moments like this. read more
