Rousch Warrior Mustang 2017 I had an oil change service done at another location. Mechanic had installed slightly damaged part which eventually led to bad oil leak. Once I disc I had an oil change service done at another location. Mechanic had installed slightly damaged part which eventually led to bad oil leak. Once I discovered oil leak I attempted to have service done at same location. The next available appointment was six weeks out.. I called one on ford to see if they could accommodate me. There was an appointment available the next day. I had to have my vehicle towed to location since there was no oil left in my vehicle and I did not want to risk damaging the engine. Mechanics took about four hours to do exploratory inspection . I was told that there was a small hole in the oil filter which was causing the oil leak. I asked if Honolulu Ford could work with the other dealer for reimbursement fees since work was not covered by warranty. I explained that I shouldn’t have to pay for work to repair my vehicle since the other dealer installed damaged parts which caused the whole issue of oil leaking. Total cost for repair was $315. I requested for the other dealer to pay the repair cost. I had a difficult time with the other dealership to pay.for repairs. Six hours later, I was furious about the whole incident. The service agent Teresa and service manager Sam worked with me to resolve this issue. Ultimately on a little Ford just absorb the cost of the repair to get me on my way. I was a little upset about having to do all the legwork of trying to get the other dealer to pay for repairs. However I was grateful for what Honolulu forwar ultimately Honolulu Ford just absorb the cost of the repair to get me on my way. I was a little upset about having to do all the legwork of trying to get the other dealer to pay for repairs. However I was grateful for what Honolulu Ford was willing to do to keep customers happy. When I went to pick up my vehicle I told Sam and Teresa that I wanted to make Honolulu Ford the main dealership to service my vehicle. More

Lithia: An example of how to turn from Local to Foreign Ive been a Ford guy for 30 years, sticking with the brand for both personal and business car purchases. Ive been loyal to Honolulu Ford since moving Ive been a Ford guy for 30 years, sticking with the brand for both personal and business car purchases. Ive been loyal to Honolulu Ford since moving home almost 20 years ago and have always returned for new purchases and recommended the dealership without hesitation. No longer. For either. In early-mid 2017 I returned home from a short trip to find my 2014 F150 wouldn't start. The battery terminals had corroded and the positive cable and terminal connectors had essentially disintegrated. I called my regular service advisor at Honolulu Ford and he arranged to have my F150 towed to the dealership for repair. I was told that the dealership did not have any cables in stock and would have to order it, expecting it to take about a week to arrive and, once received, the service department was backed up and it would likely take an additional week to replace the cable and battery. I offered to pay to have the cable sent to the dealership by FedEx and I was told that wasn't possible. I asked if I could get a loaner as I couldn't go two weeks without a car. The advisor said that the new ownership of the dealership no longer offered a loaner program, but that I could call Ford Corporate to see if they might be able to help given my brand loyalty. Ford Corporate opened a case number and said it would contribute to the cost of a rental/loaner if the dealership would also contribute, and I was given a name at the dealership to contact. Over the course of several days I placed multiple calls to Sam Bersamin to request rental/loaner assistance. When he finally returned my call he declined my request with seemingly no regard for my brand loyalty, the fact my F150 was still under warranty, accountability for the ridiculousness of the parts department not having a battery cable in stock and needing a week to get one, or accountability for the service department being so backed up that it would take another week to replace a battery and cable. I did get my F150 back almost two weeks later. Last month I returned home from 3-day trip and again my F150 wouldn't start. My battery had corroded again and there wasn't enough juice to even activate my interior light when the door was opened. I thought I'd save both my and the dealership's time and energy by not asking the dealership to arrange my F150 to be towed to the service department. Instead, I purchased a new battery from a nearby auto parts store, swapped it with the corroded one, and drove to the dealership to have regular maintenance done while also requesting either reimbursement for the cost of the battery I purchased, or replacement of the corroded battery (I figured it wouldn't hurt to have an extra battery on hand in case I had to deal with another corroded battery situation). my old service advisor had left and Charlo was assigned to my case. Charlo said that because my 3 year / 36k mile warranty had expired about 3 weeks prior he could not reimburse me or replace the corroded battery without charging me for it (even though it was related to a new battery the dealership had installed only months earlier -- when my F150 WAS still under warranty), and that the battery manufacturer's 3 year warranty did not apply to batteries replaced as part of a vehicles warranty servicing. At that point I was fed up and had lost all respect and loyalty to the dealership. It wasn't carlo' fault, he was just the messenger. The dealerships justification for not righting a wrong and its complete lack of interest in maintaining a longstanding customer relationship was inexcusable. After all, the battery I purchased cost $125 and it probably would have cost the dealership even less satisfactorily resolve the issue. Had the dealership done so, despite the terrible customer service I experienced with the extended repair period and no loaner months before, I would have still returned to purchase another truck I currently need. instead, I will not buy another car from any Lithia owned dealership and nor will I recommend Honolulu Ford ever again. I certainly hope Lithia does not acquire Cutter Ford. As an aside, after I left the dealership that day I called to relay my concerns to Marcus, the GM of Honolulu Ford. He was not in so I left a message requesting a call back. not surprisingly, I never did receive a call back. More

Why I chose Honolulu Ford Back in the day when Honolulu Ford was located in Kakaako, I remember the very first car my wife and I bought from them in 1992 was a Ford Escort. We Back in the day when Honolulu Ford was located in Kakaako, I remember the very first car my wife and I bought from them in 1992 was a Ford Escort. We liked it so much that soon we traded it in for a newer model and I bought my first truck a new Ford Ranger P/U truck. Long story short, though Honolulu Ford moved from the old location to their new one in Kalihi, their reputation to provide excellent sales and service has not changed one bit. That’s why I came back to Honolulu Ford and that’s why they get high marks from me. More

Great service with Nice People I had a faulty part in my AC that needed to be replaced under warranty and scheduled an appointment online. When I called to try to speak to someone I had a faulty part in my AC that needed to be replaced under warranty and scheduled an appointment online. When I called to try to speak to someone over the phone about this, the service department wasn't very helpful and told me that a simple diagnostic would cost $160 which I knew wasn't the case. I'd recommend booking online but then you won't have an estimate of how much anything will cost to repair or service. I arrived a little early for my appointment and it was very busy so had to wait for 15-20 minutes which went beyond my appointment time. Once I was able to talk to the service representative Chad, he was very helpful and gave me very accurate time estimation of how long the service would take and arranged for a courtesy shuttle to take me home and bring me back again later in the afternoon. The woman driving the shuttle, Edith, I believe, was the sweetest woman and I enjoyed speaking to her on the car rides to and fro. Chad also threw in a free car wash for my very dirty car which was greatly appreciated. This is my first time needing a repair for my car that I got at this dealership just two years ago so I appreciated the efficiency in getting the job done in one day without too much disruption to my work schedule. Very professional staff. I just wish customer service on the phone was a little more helpful. More

Unparalleled Professionalism My experience at Honolulu Ford was the best car purchasing experience I've had. Unlike past experiences at other dealerships, all employees that I wor My experience at Honolulu Ford was the best car purchasing experience I've had. Unlike past experiences at other dealerships, all employees that I worked with there were personable, friendly, and helpful. But ultimately it was because of Eric Blazek's unparalleled professionalism that made my decision making process that much easier. He offered answers to questions I had regarding every aspect of the purchase, from items on the purchase order to options in the car and made certain that I was absolutely comfortable with my decision prior to signing. I will definitely be recommending him to my family and friends for future sales! Mahalo a nui! More
