My parents and I have been a customer at Mckenney-Salinas Honda for years and has received excellent customer service every time. Normally, Jasper is the one that always greets me with his welcoming personality but my most recent visit I encountered Mr. Lamont Stevenson and he was equally as caring and Mr. Johnson was able to get my car payments lowered!! Highly recommend this dealership. One thing I would like to add is it was a little frustrating have numerous advisors calling me when my lease maturity date was approaching and telling 2 people my decision, the calls, texts and emails ...


Very clean and friendly parts department sales people.


My son and I went to purchase his first car on Saturday and I have to say the service we received was beyond outstanding. Both the sales manager, Lamont Stevenson and the Internet sales manager, Tami Boone, who helped set up the deal before our trip on Saturday went above and beyond, catering to our every need. It was without a doubt the smoothest, most efficient and satisfying experience I’ve ever had at a dealership. They exceeded all of my expectations and I would rate them above a 5 star if I had the option. Even the finance manager worked ...

Service gentleman/woman was really helpful, I drove my friends Honda CRV for recall of drivers side switch.


Lamont went over and above helping my family and I with the purchase of our new car. Along with Lamont everyone was genuinely happy to help with the new car purchase.

Lamont and everyone else I worked with at this dealership were beyond nice and professional. I would highly recommend buying a car from them. Thank you guys

I HATE car shopping. However, from the time we walked in the door Lamont made the process so pleasant! Very happy with the condition of the certified used auto. Lamont gave us a very fair trade in value too! The dealership was clean and nice to see controls for coronavirus were in place. We had to drive to the other side of Charlotte for the auto we wanted and are so happy we did. I will be recommending Lamont and this dealership to friends and coworkers. Thank you Lamont!!

Awesome Service advisor walked my daughter threw process to resetting radio security code... many thanks

Great Service Department

We were traveling from PA to Florida and I was having some low tire pressure issues. We stopped at McKenney- Salinas beautiful dealership and received outstanding service. We were greeted by Katelyn Golden. She was so friendly and professional. Our car was so dirty from the PA snowfall and the wet roads she even gave us a car wash. If I lived in the area I would definitely buy my Honda from McKenney- Salinas Honda. Thank you so much for checking my tires and washing my Honda, it was nice to continue my trip knowing everything was safe.




I will always see Lamont when it comes time to buy a car. He’s caring and honest and wants to put you in your dream car! This is my second I’ve gotten from him. Great customer service, always happy and extremely helpful! Shout out of Chris for making the deal work out too!

Phillip in parts is great

Marcus was great with my wife. She never felt pressured or forced into anything.best car salesmen experience

Randi in Sales w awesome, took his time w us and helped us understand the process. Finance was a breeze! Didnt give 5 as bathroom was far away..but it was clean..

I had a great experience with this dealer!! Lamont Stevenson was a great help! From the test drive to the purchase. He was very kind helpful and most importantly not overly bearing with phone calls, that’s honestly what made me purchase with this dealer not to forget the new 2021 Honda Accords look sooooooo good!! Now I’m a proud owner of one thanks to Lamont and staff. Go shop now people and you have the exact same experience!!! Promise!!!!!! Ps. I can’t make this up!!

Fast courteous service


Great service, didn't try to up sale. Nice location

Thank you to Leroy at MS Honda for making my car purchasing experience a very positive one. He was very helpful and was able to answer all my questions. Everyone I encountered at MS Honda was very friendly and respectful. Great experience.

Had a great no-contact buying experience through TrueCar and Mckenney-Salinas Honda. LeRoy Bringe did a great job making everything as easy as could be.

I recently leased a new accord and could not be happier with the service and the product. Jonathan and Marcus were great to work with and made the process incredibly simple. I will use them in the future!



Always very good

MS Honda has treated us incredibly well over the years. We have leased/Purchased 4 cars from them over the last 4 years and it has been easy every single time. They stick to their word, there are no games and we could not be happier. In my experience yesterday, I got 2 new cars but was by myself. Marcus followed me home, dropped off my car and took my old Ford back with him on trade. Jonathan is always willing to work with me. They have a great team over there. Highly recommend.


Love my new CRV!!!


I called into the service department and spoke with Jasper and he was incredibly helpful. Not only did he take the time to break down and answer all the questions I had, he gave me some really good advice. He acted like I was the only customer, incredible service.

Thank you Leroy Bringe for helping me find my new car!

Hey an awesome place todo business with, quick and Reliable services staff too.


Effortless, no pressure deal from start to finish, drove away with the vehicle I wanted.

Great customer service friendly anda great car selection.

After searching everywhere to find a new remote key for my Honda CRV because the key was breaking from the remote, I was about to give in and pay the fee. Everywhere I talked to was at least $200. One place even quoted me $300. Then thinking to myself, I don't technically need a whole new key, just a remote, I called this dealership. I was ever so lucky to get Jay on the phone from parts. He said they were about to close, and when I mapped it, I would get there right when they shut the doors. Jay told ...

I just want to say Thank You to Brian, the Service Dept. Manager. He was kind, courteous and understanding when I called in frustrated over the AC in my Honda Civic. He turned what could have easily been a horrible situation into a great experience and I appreciate that more than I can describe. My AC is working great now and you have earned yourself a new customer thanks to him.

Fast and easy when you have an appointment



Lamont was nothing short of amazing when it came to getting my wants and needs met. I never felt any pressure to make any decisions, but felt reassured that any questions or concerns that I had were met with genuine responses. Thanks for everything Lamont and your team. You're all wonderful. Stay safe!

I have just acquired a gorgeous, 2020 Pilot EXL. This will be my 5th Honda and my 3rd purchase/Lease from McKinney Salinas. With al the Covid craziness, they made it SO EASY for me to get my paperwork done, remotely, as much as possible. I was in and out in a FLASH. Sharon was as calm and cool as can be, and got me through this process, so easily. I will go nowhere else, for anything related to my vehicle. I get my tires from them, even. All my service goes to them. I formed a very strong trust in ...

Thanks to Leroy Bringe, I am driving my third car I’ve gotten from this dealership and now a 2020 Honda Pilot that I wanted and love!! Great experience for getting help for a car!!! Always available for questions! Thank you all at Honda!

We bought a new loaded CR-V and could not be happier with the sales and followup experience. Sales Manager, Jonathan, and Goldmaster Salesman Eddie were so helpful and patient. The entire time we felt they had our best interest at heart and put no pressure on us to buy a particular car or to hurry the sale. We previously bought a truck from this same store and we felt the same way about that sale too. This is what car buying should be. Updated April, 2020: We went back to Eddie and Jonathan to try to find a car for our ...


I have went here everytime for work on my cars. I have had only 1 issue with them and I don't recommend ever getting tires through them. If you are out of town and it has to be replaced somewhere other than that specific dealership, you will not receive your money back. I was out $160 and had to buy another tire somewhere else. As far as working on my car they have done an excellent job everytime. Their prices are reasonable and they all have great personalities.

Absolutely a wonderful experience. Shout out to Lamont that was extremely pleasant and helpful and made the annoying process of buying a car as easy as possible. It couldn't have gone smoother. Thank you!


Not been there yet but plane to shop soon

I purchased a car from here last Friday. I had an awesome experience. Hayam, in their internet dept, worked with me from step one. She connected me with Sharon in sales. They both went above and beyond to help me. This is my first Honda, so I was a little nervous with the change. They helped make it a wonderful experience! !


I keep my car running like it's new

Gibby in service is why we come here. Knowledgeable and friendly.


What a GREAT place!! This is my 6th car from this dealership! I bought my first car from them when I was 18! Their service has remained EXCELLENT since! Thank you Leroy and ALL of the great staff for another easy purchase, I LOVE IT!!




Jasper the Service Advisor is Awesome!


I reached out to the service department and spoke with service writer Wes Gibby on a vehicle I purchased showing service Performed at McKinney-Salinas Honda. Wes was more than helpful knowing that I was not a past customer and had no potential for business moving forward. I don’t usually write reviews, but if this is the way Wes treats someone who is not his customer... I would recommend anyone looking for a service writer at McKenney-Salinas Honda to ask specifically for Wes. Good intent reflects well past monetary reward for Wes!!!


We purchased a used 2017 Honda Pilot from Lamont Stevenson at McKenney Salinas Honda in Gastonia. It was, by far, the BEST car buying experience we've ever had!! Both Lamont and the finance manager were very helpful, friendly, and gave us all the information we needed with NO PRESSURE AT ALL! Honda's are the best vehicles we have had, so I look forward to a long, happy relationship with McKenney Salinas! As for service, the day after we purchased our Honda, there was an error message about the battery in the key fob being low--pulled into the service bay ...

It was great chris pressley and ray gough were very helpful considering buying a car from them thank them for the help

This was my first time purchasing a new vehicle, and Mr. Stevenson made it an easy and teachable experience. I’m completely happy with my purchase, and would recommend their services to anyone who’s looking to buy!


Excellent Staff and Great Customer Service Mr. Marcus Covington! My Mother Mary Minter wants to Thank You Again for Making her Vehicle Purchase a Success.We Appreciate You And We will see you again soon. Take Care.

I want to share my experience today and sing the praises of Kaitlyn Golden, service advisor. She has always been courteous and very compassionate and today went out of her way for my safety. I needed to have my Pilot serviced but due to Covid 19 and my risk factors, I am unable to come inside. Kaitlyn arranged for my car to be picked up at my home, serviced and then returned. I did not have to make any physical contact and therefore was protected. She is tops in my book and my car was washed before it was returned. My 2004 ...


I couldnt have asked for a better car buying experience Leroy was great to deal with and I will use him and McKinney Salinas Honda in Gastonia again!



Very Awesome place to buy a car...Great Sales Team with nice cars!!!! Dustin Watkins got us in and got us out in No time... He was the best salesman we ever had.



Caitlyn [ service rep] was very thorough. She was attentive to our rime constraints. The car was ready BEFORE time.


I got the car I purchased inspected by a mechanic and they said it is in pristine condition. The dealer sent someone to my house to help me finalize paperwork and the staff was incredible. I bought a used Honda Civic and it was exactly what I had been looking for. The price for the mileage and condition was amazing. It's the second car I bought from them and both times were wonderful experiences. I never felt pressured or hassled. They were down to Earth and I am grateful for their honestly.

I easily scheduled my oil change online the day before. I showed up on time, and within 5 minutes of arriving to the Service Dept. Garage they had me exiting my vehicle and headed into the very nice waiting area. I had a complimentary Cafe Vanilla and proceeded to open my laptop on a convenient workspace table where I worked for the next hour. They came to explain that my vehicle was ready, that they had created an estimate for brakes that I may need to consider by my next oil change. She explained that although my vehicle was ready, I ...

Love my new car!! Great service!

Surprisingly pleasant experience. Ray Gough my salesman and Chris Pressley the finance manager were both very professional and not pushy. We love our Odyssey and would go back in a heartbeat! Quick and easy transaction and no hidden surprises!

Had a problem with the rear hatch on my new Honda Hrv, called them while I was on the road they told me to bring it on in, they let us drive another vehicle so we could grab some lunch, when we get back they came out to tell us what they found and they were putting it back together, super nice people and very attentive, best experience buying a car and service department is awesome as well, keep up the good work guys

Good vehicles - good sales.

I did my research before going to McKenney-Salinas Honda and it was based on the reviews that I chose to go this dealer for my next purchase. I worked with Lamont Stevenson, Sales Consultant and Chris Pressley, Finance Manager. The transaction was the best experience I ever had in purchasing a vehicle. Hassle free, pleasant and smooth. Lamont answered all of my questions before hand, had the vehicle I was looking to purchase ready for me upon my arrival. It's good to know that great customer service and good business still exist. KUDOS!


Fast, professional, friendly! I would highly recommend them to anyone in the market for a Honda automobile. Their staff was very helpful, knowledgeable, and considerate. They are worth the drive from the bigger cities! Thanks McKenney Salinas Honda! N. Grilliot


Went here buy a car, and although we bought a car from another dealer, we had a really good experience with McKenney Salinas! Pete was our salesman, he was patient for all our questions, informative, and the interaction was very low pressure. Definitely recommend adding McKenney Salinas to your list of stops when looking for your next car!

Sharon Telsrow did an amazing job from beginning to end. She knows her product very well!!! 2nd car we’ve bought from her! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sharon Telsrow was great to work with in finding a new car! Sharon listened to us and made sure she found exactly what we were looking for! She patiently worked through the setup of the individual settings to ensure the vehicle was set up just right! This is our second purchase from McKenney-Salinas Honda nd we plan to return when it's time for another vehicle!

I went to McKenney-Salias today for a used car and ended up leaving with a 2020 Honda Civic Sport. The staff does not pressure you to make a purchase! Lamont was great and was always there if we had questions. They are very friendly and do not hassle you. Chris was very helpful when going through the signing process. I’m glad that I was able to purchase a car without the stress and pressure that is normally given at a dealership. Thank you for the help today!

Great service, friendly staff and amazingly organized.

Parts in service today great experience

quick and great service

Went to this dealership not expecting to purchase but very interested in a couple of their used vehicles. Ended up purchasing that evening! This place is so laid back and friendly. I really didn’t even need to take a nerve pill beforehand 😂. Big shout out to my salesman Chad. He didn’t push anything on me, gave me some honest feedback and was very helpful. I appreciate everyone who helped me during a normally very stressful experience. Special thanks to Chad, Roger, Jonathan and Steve. I recommend this dealership to all of my people.
