Katie, We’re happy Tess helped make your first used-car purchase such a positive experience, and that Chris was there to guide you through the financial details. We appreciate your trust and hope you enjoy your new vehicle!
I had the pleasure of working with Anthony Esemplare. He was able to help me find the car I was looking for and was very kind to me and my family. I also had a great experience with Chris Corbett as well, who conducts the financial offers and contracts over at Lia Honda in Brewster. Very grateful for the time and care that was put into my buying experience. This is my second car purchase at this dealership and I will definitely be back again next time I’m looking for a new car!

Susan, We’re pleased to hear that Kevin Feldman was helpful, responsive, and provided clear explanations of your vehicle’s repair needs. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.
I had an amazing experience with the sales team at Lia Honda of Brewster. Irene from Internet sales was quick to respond when I first reached out about buying a used car from their website. My salesman, Peter Leahy was helpful through all of the steps of securing the vehicle and walking me through the loan process over the phone. I never felt any pressure while dealing with him and all of the questions I had were answered quickly and thoroughly. As I live an hour and a half away from the dealership, I wanted to do most of the deal over the phone before I drove there. He made sure that everything was in place when I made the trip to Brewster, including contacting my insurance agent to have the new car added to my policy. I saw the vehicle in person for the first time the day I picked it up. It was just as described in the listing. Chris made the financing experience quick and easy. I would highly recommend this dealership for anyone in the market for a car!

Sarah, We're thrilled that Irene was quick to respond when you first reached out, and that Peter Leahy made the entire process smooth and pressure-free for you, especially since you were doing most of it over the phone from an hour and a half away. Getting everything lined up, including your insurance, before you made the drive shows the kind of service we strive for. We're glad Chris made financing quick and easy too. Thanks for the recommendation, and congratulations on your new car!
We purchased a vehicle last year with the help of Jorge Campozano. When we found ourselves in need of another vehicle this year we did not hesitate to contact Jorge again. Great experience both times!

I purchased my 1st Honda in 1978. Have purchased a new Honda every 4 or 5 years and currently own 2. Last purchased a 2025 CRV from Lia Honda Brewster in December 2024. the Honda Brand and Lia Honda Dealership in particular have been on a steep decline. All my vehicles have been garaged and properly maintained. Recent repairs include replacing the rack and pinion on 2012 Pilot w/ 60k, fuel injectors on 2017 CRV w/ 56k and countless problems with a 2022 Accord, including Honda roadside assistance unavailable to provide tow and left my son stranded. All these issues were documented defects and warranty issues. Most recently, I called Lia Honda to schedule complimentary maintenance on 2025 CRV with 6100 miles. I was told that complimentary service does not cover fluid changes with more than 15% life or beyond 12 months ownership because the dealership does not get reimbursed. I spent 40k on a new car and the dealership is quibbling over the terms of a free oil change. I spoke to Chris, the assistant service manager, who was supposed to get back to me and never returned my call. Overall, steep decline in quality and basic customer service.

Timothy, Thank you for sharing your concerns. I'm sorry to hear you've experienced issues with your Hondas. I've reviewed your service history with us, and it appears we've only had the opportunity to service your vehicles once or twice, so these particular concerns may not be documented in our records. Regarding the complimentary oil change, Honda does have specific guidelines that apply across all dealerships for when the first service can be completed. I'd be happy to discuss this further and address any questions you have. Please feel free to give me a call anytime. Kira Bueti Fixed Operations Manager P (845) 278-4180 ext. 210 [email protected]
I finally received a response from Lia Honda Brewster. The service department contacted me this morning to inquire why we have not been back for service. Only after I explained the issues I was having and never receiving a response from the assistant service manager did Kira Bueti respond on-line. She explained that her hands were tied by the Honda corporate reimbursement policies and the dealership did not have the interest or discretion to correct the situation. She felt my review of the dealership was unfair. Well Kira, it was the dealership that did not respond or attempt to resolve the situation. Honda has since revised their policy and relaxed the mileage restrictions. I would think that a dealership that sold me 2 new cars in the last 3 years would not be quibbling over the terms of a complimentary oil change. It should be noted that Danbury Honda was more than happy to service my vehicle last week. I stand by my original review.
Kira, Thanks for taking the time to discuss my concerns. You made it quite clear in our conversation that there was nothing the dealership could do to extend or modify the terms of the complimentary oil change because the dealership would not be reimbursed. Apparently you are not concerned with new car sales or retaining me as a customer. I’m sure the sales manager appreciates you sending my business elsewhere. Also, I would gladly upload receipts for repairs at your dealership including a 12/26/24 repair totaling $823.10 to replace a front wheel bearing on a 2017 Honda CRV with 62017 miles invoice # 22767HB. Not something I would expect to be replacing that early. Especially, when only one side failed. Keep up the good work Kira, you are a brand ambassador!
Duane was a complete professional between his knowledge and patience with us getting our new vehicle. We were completely satisfied with him and financial member.
