Acura of Escondido

Guys,

I need some feedback with those who have done business with Acura of Escondido...

Can you please let me know how your experience was with dealing with them?

Any praises/gripes?

Also would like to know if anyone has bought from their Ebay online store and those experiences as well.

Let me know!!!

MODS, if this thread doesn't belong here please move it to the necessary location!

-Jason

I got my swaybar from them and the transaction went very smoothly, even for a cross-border shipment.

I ordered my Icebox and sway bar from them. Since they're nearby I drove down to Escondido to pick them up. Very good dealer. They responded to my e-mails promptly.

Well yes, but it's not a fairy tale. I bought a swaybar from them. They actually ran out of stock though, so I was waiting weeks to get a sway bar that I wasn't getting. The good part came when I called asking about where is was and the guy was really nice and refunded my money instantly.

I can vouch, too. Got my Icebox from them, transaction was so smooth it could be described as 'boring and routine'.

I'm actually located in Australia and I bought my gear knob from their ebay store without any problems and it was a very good experience. I would buy from them again.

Great experiences with them. I've bought quite a bit of stuff from them. I think the last thing was an Acura mp3 attachment kit.

To my surprise, I ordered an aspec suspension one day and the next day I see a huge box in my front porch. I was expecting at least 3 days or so....

Later on, I needed a reciept and they got it to me in under an hour.

Purchased my A-Spec suspension from them as well. What I got was a very good price and timely delivery.

No complaints here.

Helps control body roll and keeps the car flatter in turns. Overall cornering is improved.
