Beware / Alert........What the hell has happened to this dealership. The last place you want to get your Honda serviced or possibly contemplate buying a new one is this dealership. Approximately 300% markup on parts and documented labor charges of $135.00 an hour; totally absurd, even for a damn dealer; and in a pandemic no less. I have purchased two vehicles in excess of $68,000 from Rusty Wallis in the past and for the most part had received competitive pricing, professional/quality service, and reasonable, rational, input from these folks until about five years ago, when the competitive pricing and a professional business model approach were abandoned, thrown out the window, and the consumer auto rape doctrine was put in place. Won't the executives at American Honda Motor Co. Inc. be pleased when they peruse this post, and I'm just getting started. A formal complaint letter in the mail with a copy of this Yelp post. Next stop, every online consumer auto dealer rating site that I can find; here I come. To the owners/management of Rusty Wallis, you kick the dog he's going to bite.
Exaggerated vehicle inspection reports, inaccurate imminent vehicle repair need communications, bait and switch vehicle report inspection tactics to name a few. When I had the temerity to question an estimate (parts & labor) for work Rusty Wallis service asserts needs to be done on my vehicle in the future, a long time senior service representative replies, "we're a dealer, what you'd expect, we have high overhead." The Honda executives are going to love that quote. If they ask, I'll even give them a name of that team member. If the two nice, expensive, customer service waiting areas are indeed a contributor to the changes in philosophy with the additional costs to overhead of the dealership, then the empty centers observed in my latest and last visit are a living visual testament of inept management/ownership. I don't give a damn about your overhead !!!
If any of the shared occurrences sound familiar or happened to you, I encourage you to let your voice be heard, not only on Yelp, but also communicated to the executives of the Honda Motor Co. of North America. Rusty Wallis, you've gone rogue, your lost, and are off the reservation. I'm out..................gone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Respect must be earned, and you folks have fallen way short,
