I would not recommend Lia Honda Albany based on my recent service experience. I had over $7,000 worth of work done on my vehicle, and the communication throughout the process was extremely poor. I was told on three separate occasions that my vehicle was ready for pickup, only to then be told additional items still needed to be completed—items I had originally requested when I first brought it in. It ultimately took two weeks to get my vehicle back, and even then, an issue I was assured had been fixed—and paid for—was still not resolved. Since then, I’ve continued to have difficulty resolving the outstanding issue. I spoke directly with the service manager, Steve, but have had ongoing issues, including being told Steve would pick up my call, then placed on hold for over 15 minutes only to be told Steve had left the premises for lunch. I also spoke with 2 different employees and requested the service director, John Kelty, contact me for resolution, but never received a response. For the amount of money spent, I expected a much higher level of professionalism and communication—especially regarding services already paid for. This experience has been frustrating and disappointing, and I hope this feedback encourages improvements moving forward.

I was very please with the service and attention that I received from the dealership. I especially appreciated the service Ernie Walton provided to making sure everything went smoothly with the replacement of my windshield.

I took my car with 12,000 miles on it for an inspection and they told me I needed all 4 brakes replaced to the tune of $1700.00 . I bought my last two car at Lia ....I will not be going back ...........I took the car to another place and my Brakes passed with flying colors ........They will try to cheat you
