I needed a reliable vehicle for my growing family. Kyle was very informative about all of the SUVs that I was looking at and helped me make a great choice. He was very professional and understanding. He made the typically grueling car buying experience a walk in the park. He was also very helpful in explaining how to use the long list of features that my Pilot Elite came with. I recommend his sales service to anyone!

Just bought my 2017 Honda Accord from Honda Universe. I have been a long time Nissan customer and I have to say I love my new Honda. And my salesperson Rahsaan was awesome and well informed and made sure I had a good experience and was very reassuring! And my finance person(sorry I forgot his name. -_-) was awesome and answered any and all questions I had. I love the confidence he had to get me a good interest rate. I am looking forward to our future business ventures¿<3

My wife and I went in because our lease is ending son through them and we wanted to see what kind of prices or deals they would offer to stay with them. The sales rep wasnt terrible, just doing his job. The "Manager" that came over was the most rude person Ive ever dealt with when buying a car, and as soon as I found out about they lied on my previous lease about a deposition fee, I walked out.

Our credit was less than perfect and Brian worked tirelessly to secure me the payments we agreed upon. Best leasing experience to date and I have been leading since 2006. Highly recommended

Its a shame I cant give more than 5 stars. My sales person was Sean, he is the best friendliest salesman. The best part is, he really is trying to figure out what it is that I want and could afford and then providing just that. Never tried to get me to pay for stuff I dont need or want and the best is wtvr number they give u is the actual number NO SURPRISES. Very pleasant transaction, this is my second lease through Sean at Honda Universe and my 10nth car. Guys if u want all that 5 start service come looking for Sean at Honda Universe. Update to review: I needed some changes In the lease and Sean would just bend over to make sure I am 100% satisfied. Thank You

I decided to buy a new car. I received a notice from toyota rt 37 Toms River nj. About an 7 day employee pricing . I had a Carolla in mind. I drove it and didnt find it to be all that. Then I sat down with salesman and again showed him the letter about employee pricing I received from them . He went in the back and came out with a price that was higher then I got on line under a different name. I got up and walked out. Before I got in my car they came outside and dropped the price 500 in the parking lot. I still left. I drove to Honda Universe in Lakewood on rt 88. I met with anibal and told him I was interested in the Honda civic EX. He brought one out and I drove 2 blocks and I could tell the huge difference between the Civic and Carolla . It was clear the Civic was my car. We went back inside and came to an agreement on the price. My credit was not so good . I had a bankruptcy 2 years ago. Honda was offering 1.9 financing. The finance manager came out and spoke to me before sending my application to Honda . He asked me a few questions about why I did the bankruptcy and what my financial status is now. After our conversation he put my application in and about a half hour later I was approved. I was very excited. I could not believe how professional and personal they were with me and the entire process of selling me a car. Now I am a happy owner of a new Honda Civic. Thank You Honda For believing in me Thank You to the financial manager Who got to know me and my status. To get me approved. Thank you to Anibal who follow the entire process through and got the price I was happy with.

Response from Honda Universe:

Thank you so much for this amazing review! We are so glad you had such a great experience! We strive to make our customers as happy as possible! Congratulations on your new Civic and ENJOY!!!

Also look at the thing they call Etching its not necessary so watch what you sign.

John was an excellent person to talk with. He was easy to make jokes with, he talked business when necessary, and, despite his casual demeanor, he was very professional with what he did. He knew what he was talking about and he talked with confidence. He could easily make small talk, and it made the entire process seem that much quicker. He even managed to know which car color I would like the most and even had it prettied up before we left! Its not often that someone can tell what color car you want that quickly. The car itself is great, too, having a lot of nifty features that Ill take advantage of. It was a great experience, despite the fact that I was dreading it for a long, long while. Id recommend him to anyone.

Having done my due diligence online ,emailing online pre approval and speaking directly with Honda Universe I was assured that getting the vehicle I wanted would take "2 or 3 days" I just needed to come in give a deposit (a 50 minute drive for me) and they would do the rest. WRONG WRONG WRONG, no call backs I left many messages and after 8 days was informed they could not get vehicle, fact is I could have driven to the other dealer in Maryland in 2.5 hrs and purchased the car. Lesson learned If they don’t have it in stock don’t waste your time, false promises basically everything you hear thats bad with car salesmen
