New Century Honda - Service Center

I recently had my brakes and rotors replaced at NEW CENTURY HONDA SERVICE-GLENDALE, and I wanted to share my experience, as I’m concerned about the outcome. After the replacement, I followed Honda’s CENTURY HONDA SERVICE-GLENDALE, and I wanted to share my experience, as I’m concerned about the outcome. After the replacement, I followed Honda’s instructions and had the break-in process on the new rotor and brakes within less than 24 hours. However, I noticed a groove had formed on the rotor, which raised concerns. I understand that the break-in process is typically handled by the service center. When I returned the vehicle to the same service center, I was assured that the rotor would be replaced with a new one. However, upon inspecting the vehicle after the follow-up service, it seems the rotor has simply been regrinded, not replaced as I was told. This was disappointing, as I had expected a new part as promised because we paid for the new parts. I would appreciate it if the service center could review this matter and clarify the situation. I’ve always trustedNEW CENTURY HONDA SERVICE-GLENDALE for quality service, and I hope this issue can be resolved promptly. More

Do Not Go Here! !! Complete rip off and horrible job done. Took my van in for full service to be in tip top shape, spent over $800 and a month later the van started h !! Complete rip off and horrible job done. Took my van in for full service to be in tip top shape, spent over $800 and a month later the van started having hard starting problems. I took it back in and they charged me $190 for diagnostics despite that the van should have been in perfect running condition and turned out it was a loose electrical connection. Then a week later my check engine came on and they charged me another $190 literally to tell me that the check engine light was an error and there was nothing wrong and reset it. Why am I being charged all of these diagnostics fees when this should have been diagnosed under the first diagnostic fee!!! Please do not go here and I will be moving my car along with all our family Honda vehicles to a different repair store. Everyone that works there is very kind though and my service person was great, just the business practices are not acceptable. More

In Service Jan 18, 2024, they sent two coupons as Christmas gifts for their customers, both coupons have tire rotation as commentary for being their customers, and they didn't do the rotation, and wh Christmas gifts for their customers, both coupons have tire rotation as commentary for being their customers, and they didn't do the rotation, and when you asked why? they said it's not needed, in the end, you find yourself paying the same amount before applying the coupon, so it is sheeting, I never purchased my two Honda from Glendale it's overpriced, go to the airport Marina or Goudy or or in Northridge More

Wait it's coming from my car. Every time i was driving thru the speed bumps its was making the noise. This time I really checked my car they forgot to set back and lock my engine cover when they did the oil change. I took it there because they had a oil change special. For $39.99. I always go to Keyes Honda never had any problems or issues. So I did take it to keyes honda to fix my under the engine cover that New Century Honda left in my car. THANKS TO KEYES HONDA PROBLEM FIX AND THEY DIDN'T CHARGE ME FOR FIXING THE ISSUE... More

Requested confirmation of receipt No text back. 2: 30pm - Called the front desk and a female transferred me to Chris's voicemail. 2:53pm - Sent a text to New Century Honda #833 374-0250 requesting the status of my car. No response. 4:22pm - Went on the Website and had a live chat with Kristof to obtain the status of my car. Kristoff obtained info about me and my car and said he will have someone call me. 4:29pm - Called again and finally reached Albert who gave me an update of my car. I conveyed to have everything done (the purpose was because I was going on a road trip and reasonably wanted my car to be safe). Albert said a call was made to me at 1:27pm of which I have no log of incoming calls from Century Honda at that time on my cell. Albert was the only person that I interacted with who provided excellent customer service by answering all my questions. Additionally. I thought the service department closed at 9pm until Albert mentioned it closes at 6pm. 5:07pm - Finally Received a call from Christopher Jimenez and he apologized and said he called at 2:57pm. (I have no log of incoming calls from Century Honda at that time). Chris said he also did not receive the texts. He said he will take care of everything in my car. 5:31pm - Spoke with Chris in person about what happened today with the lack of communication and asked what was the problem. He said he had no idea but apologized. I was irritated and felt dismissed. 5:41pm - Paid and went to my car and on a hunch, opened my hood and checked my battery and they did not fix the corrosion on my battery. (see attached picture) Went back and discussed it with Chris, he did not know. Spoke with Max Perin and had to explain everything all over again. (The young man did not have the courtesy to even look me in the eye as I was explaining myself) I expressed how upset I was over the operations of this facility in a monotone, low voice. I had been a customer of GOUDY HONDA in Alhambra for 12 years and their operations from my view as a customer were smooth and excellent. Max said to come back and he would give me a free battery terminal service and initialed my paper with his employee number. But he did not address the operations, and due to his mannerism and lack of eye contact, did not seem to care about the problem or how disturbed I was by the entire interaction with New Century Honda. PROBLEMS 1) Two Bad Interactions with New Century Honda - I came to New Century Honda in 2013. The first time, after service I noticed someone took $20 from my glove compartment. 13 years later, in 2021, again as a customer, I was treated with disrespect by receiving no communication to the status of my car, no justification as to the problem of the lack of communication and no customer courtesy and felt disregarded in an all male dominated establishment. 2) Time is a Valuable Commodity for Customers - I am a busy woman and do not have the time to come back again to have everything fixed when I scheduled this the first time. Good, smooth, efficient service is what should be provided to customers who pay money for your service. 3) The operations and process of New Century Honda was disorderly and lacked good customer service interactions. In an all male environment, as a female customer, it was clear the male service advisors lacked the passion and appreciation of being employed in harsh economic times, and said they did not know what happened to the lack of communication, did not really address the problem and also did not have the decency to call me back or even look me in the eye when speaking to me. It was obvious, they had no customer service training. 4) Poor software systems in their operations. Chris said he did not receive the texts I sent and said he did not know why I did not receive the call he made when my cell phone had no visual logs of incoming calls from New Century Honda at the time Chris and Albert stated. Even the online live internet chat said they would convey the concern but did not know the problem. RECOMMENDATIONS Increased ongoing customer service training (especially to the Service Providers), management and people skills training (particularly to supervisorial and management level staff) Review Operations and procedures for better customer care Review internal software to communicate with customers for better efficiency More
