Honda Odyssey 2016 Scam pt2 by Hillside Honda in Queens,NY
This is a video that features the supposedly brand new 2016 Honda Odyssey that I recently purchased from Hillside Honda. But, as you can see, this car definitely had been used (by someone at the dealership) and was very likely been in a car accident that involved the left side of the vehicle (and was not reported).
Here are the various evidences that prove my claim:
• A lot of patch up work was done in the rear bottom of the vehicle
• On the left side of the car, fuel fill door is not flushed against the car body. Under high-noon sunlight, you can see a deep shadow beneath the fuel fill door
• On driver side (which is also left side of the car) frame with tail light not aligned with tailgate. It’s off by ¼”
• Again on the left side of the car, the panel for the sliding door switch popped off after two weeks of using the vehicle
• Fabric around the right door frame is coming off
• A small part popped off from the center compartment next to the driver seat
• Both car seat latches in the second and third rows are very scratched up
• Both car remotes are also very scratched up
• Child safety lock was on when we picked up the car which also seemed unusual for a brand new vehicle
Thinking back, it now all makes sense why the sales rep offered us a very generous $5000 discount off of the MSRP right off the back without us even asking for it. My wife was expecting within a week and we had two other little ones distracting us which made us an easy target for this scam. We bought the car on a Saturday afternoon and were supposed to pick it up on Sunday morning. The sales rep sounded hesitate and said the car may not be ready and so we changed plan to pick it up on Monday instead. We went Monday afternoon and again the sales rep said it wasn’t ready. So, we ended up making another trip back to the dealership on Monday night at around 8pm to pick up the car. The sales rep did let us check the car inside the service area where there was light. However, it was very difficult to spot these things under a dim light. After a quick check, he quickly drove the car to an outdoor parking lot where there was even less lighting to show us how to use the car.
All the paperwork that we have signed said the car has “1 mile” on it. However, the actual reading was 12 miles when we picked it up. We checked the VIN report and it does not look like it was sold to another owner prior to me. So, my suspicion would be that someone at the dealership used the car, got into an accident, fixed it up and then sold it to me as a “brand new” car.
I called the sales rep and informed him my concerns with receiving a car that was not brand new. He said he was “sorry” and that “no one told him anything about the car”. He then said he “will talk to his manager and will call me back”. But, he never called back.
I have used to think Honda is a reputable company that manufactures reliable vehicles. This is the first time I have purchased a Honda vehicle and will be my last. I hope that this review will serve as a warning to our friends and families and their loved ones to not purchase any vehicles from Hillside Honda in Queens, NY.

The mileage has also probably been reset electronically.
So, nowhere did I hear you say you returned the car or even complained.....did I miss something? 👎 and a dislike... but you're welcome for the algorithm boost.
I’m pretty sure the sales manager or general manager used it then got in an accident soon after and put it up for sale as new
You have to be very, very careful when buying a new or used car -- even from a dealership. It shouldn't happen at all through a dealership and if does, you can just imagine how much worse the problem is going down the line. Anyways, car's are never any kind of investment unless you keep it for a VERY LONG TIME, like 20 or more years then it starts to pay value back into your pocket, but this is very rare.
Or a manufacturing issue
Ths manual looks old....yup it does
It was probably a demo
Lol he’s trying to be passive aggressive in this video and he know he mad asf 😭
Black man drove it from the delivery area pulled up at Exxon gave it a little kick and then used his thumb to wipe the ding by the gas cap and now it's there. He put a little spit on it to fix the problem. Either way the delivery man got paid. Good for him
My question is who would pay $40k for a honduh
Beat money it had a salvage title that they wiped clean. It’s been wreaked. Dirt, dirt BS. Sue them big time! I’ve got a hundred bucks that says the changed VIN plates.
you bought a lemon!
You never buy a car with kids in tow. The kids stay home
looks like the car was totalled! but why did u buy it?
It was your fault for not checking on the vehicle before Hans....smh!
You should’ve spotted all the red flags. (4 years late)
Cry me a river
Ay Man U worried about the shit that’s not important as long as it can get you to A to B that what matters.
damn. sue the hell outta them. i hear that baby crying. scary you got sold a unsafe vehicle especially when it comes to the safety of your little one (s).
They also reversed the miles on it to make it appear as 0 miles when you purchased it. These dealers are lying scum bags.
4.1k dislikes saying the same shit. Your a dumbass for even purchasing the car knowing it has issues
Should have check every angle before u purchase the new car 🚘
HAhahah just go back to the dealership ask for a different one... they will repair that one for another customer and probably discount the entire car to meet expectations.
This is all normal for Honda, low quality these days. Honda quality is not the same as it was 10 years ago, the quality went way down. Search for Honda Reliability Myth for some hard facts. Sorry you wasted your money on Honda.
How did you not notice that when you bought it you moron
It was damaged while it was in inventory. When you run the VIN it won’t show up on carfax if it wasn’t reported. Factory does not ship a vehicle like that. The car wasn’t used. It was the crappy body shop that did the crappy repairs.
That's your own fault for not saying anything or noticing. If your going to buy a new car your suppose to inspect the daylights out of everything before you buy it to make sure their isnt anything messed up. You clearly either were clueless or were too shy to say anything. Now deal with it
Lots of time employees use the cars where they work to run errands,
Ex demo!!
Demo car, used on test drives.
Why did u take a shitty car like that, are u blind?????????
Its a quarter inch😄😄😄
You purchased it as a slightly used demo car. You would have us believe that you didn't look at it before you purchased it????? Come on man. Stop the bs
I'd be fuming. That vehicle is a piece of shit
I bought a new truck around 2 months ago. Before I committed I did a thorough walk around to look for any imperfections
Complainer
Are you sure it was not a Demo.. Van...Plus if you got a real good deal on it ....It Should had raised a red Flag..as well as The Milage.. You Probably Never Bought a new Vehicle Before..So Why Vlog.. Go Back to Dealership...it's a lemon..there is a law...for reasons like this...They Seen you coming. Buddy...or Other option..is don't drive it on a Bright Sunny Day... Have a Good one Boss..
Did you do anything about this besides make TH-cam videos?
The only crime here is buying a mini van
I believe it's a showroom demo. And or an employee temp car.
Was it me or did that rear hatch look darker then the rear quarter panel?
Why didnt he check that stuff when he bought it lol.
most “new cars” from dealerships aren’t new. i don’t know how they get around the odometer but they will let people drive their cars before selling them. a place i use to work had a deal with a local dealership where the owners would get new cars from the dealership to drive as their everyday car and would take them in if the dealership needed them to sell and would just give them another car. they didn’t lease the car or anything they even drove around with the dealer plates. one time they had an Audi A8 for 6 months before the dealership needed it because they had someone wanting to buy one. so someone bought a “new” a8 that a family had been driving for 6 months before they bought it. so my advice to anyone buying a new car is look it over top to bottom before buying. don’t go by the millage clearly they have a way around this. i don’t know anyone who would buy a “new car with thousands of miles on it” also my grandfather use to drive “new cars” from dealerships to other dealerships and we aren’t talking down the road to the next town we are talking almost across the whole country. longest drive was from New York to Las Vegas. from one dealership to another. still had the factory stickers on the cars. he did this for about 5 years.
This isnt a scam you were just to stupid and blind to see any of it. Why did you buy the car? You didnt get scammed your just fucking stupid.
an asian driving a honda! go figure
You can make a sweat shop in that back seat God damn
I bet someone from the dealer or a potential customer wrecked it.
This is not a new car the mileage speak itself how can you purchase a car with a hundred and seventy something miles on it🤔 and they're telling you that it''s new but it has so many miles on it? it does not make any sense!!!😠😠😠
Your a moron.....
A new car has to have less then three miles on it......
