Th I had an appointment yesterday, 8/2/2021, to have door sill protectors put on my new HR-V. They had to order the parts and they arrived quickly. They then called to set up the appointment and at that time no installation price was discussed. I had previously shopped for the parts at the Honda eStore and the website gave an installed price. I made the assumption they would be in the neighborhood price wise. Upon arriving for my appointment I asked the service rep if he could tell me what it was going to cost for installation. He looked at his screen a shrugged that there was no quote given and he really wasn't sure. I then showed him the price that the eStore had given and he began to inform me that they don't honor prices from third party websites. I and the Honda employee standing next to him explained that the Honda eStore was indeed a genuine Honda entity and the price quote was legit. He then took my paper and huffed off to "talk to someone about it". He returned to say they would honor the price. After the car returned from getting serviced I looked at the sill protectors and found that they weren't adhering to the sills properly. They were coming up where they bend down over the outer edge of the sill and when push back in place they popped right back up. When I asked about it is when it got insulting. The first rep tried to tell me that when the car heated up, after I left with it, that the film would soften and mold itself to the sill. ( I didn't think to ask what would happen if it were January and not August.) I told him I disagreed and that I was not happy with them not adhering properly. He contended that it was normal for them to not stick right away the same as when you install window tint. Having lived in Phoenix for awhile and having a few cars tinted I questioned that. That's when the first rep went and got someone else to talk to me. This guy was a treat. More excuses and the whole "you don't understand" condescending attitude. Even went so far as to say they were “just stickers” and implied I my expectations might be a little high. (Shouldn't "stickers" actually stick?) After a few back and forth moments he did agree to remove them, quite hastily and with great disregard for my vehicle, and sent me on my way. Perhaps if I wouldn’t have questioned the installation cost and blindly let them overcharge me I could have avoided this treatment. They may, in my opinion, actually have taken the time to install them correctly instead of doing a quick and shoddy job of it just because they weren’t going to make enough money. I won’t return and I certainly wouldn’t recommend them. More
I asked my daughter to take her vehicle to this Honda dealership for an oil change this summer. She brought the car home a few months later. I checked the engine oil level and found it low. I looked und dealership for an oil change this summer. She brought the car home a few months later. I checked the engine oil level and found it low. I looked under the car to see a steady drip of motor oil in a puddle under the car. Further investigation revealed that the oil plug hadn't been tightened. Other past visits went smoothly though. More
