I bought a new Honda Odyssey at Pensacola Honda late 2006, and I always had it serviced there. I was meticulous about the service and was always on schedule with dealer-recommended service. Over the p 2006, and I always had it serviced there. I was meticulous about the service and was always on schedule with dealer-recommended service. Over the past few years, I noticed slippage in service levels there: rushed and harried employees who seemed disengaged, texting, etc; longer wait times on the phone when I called to schedule appointments; and pushing appointments out very far away (could never get me in within a few days of calling even for routine things like oil changes). Finally, on Wednesday, June 5, I was in Wisconsin on business, and my wife called to tell me that the air conditioner on the van was blowing hot air. She called Pensacola Honda, and the service advisor with whom she spoke said they were too busy to help her and that he couldn't have anyone take a look at it until next Tuesday (June 11). That would have meant almost a week in Florida with no A/C. Also, the van is under full-extended-warranty, and my wife asked him to look up our warranty to see if it was still in effect. He refused, saying she should do it herself online. He said he was busy, that he couldn't help her, and that was that. Well, she called Gary Smith Honda in FWB, and she spoke with Steve Shea (service advisor) who said that even though they were busy, he would work her in that day -- bring it right over! He also looked up the warranty while on the phone to let her know that it was still in force. Once she arrived, he showed great empathy (he said, "I wouldn't want my wife to go a week without A/C in her car.") They took a look at the A/C and fixed it that day. It wasn't under warranty because it was caused by a road hazard affecting the compressor, but $700 later, at least it was fixed. That is $700 Pcola Honda didn't get. From now on, I am going to Gary Smith Honda, and I will buy next new car there as well. It is a little farther to drive from Gulf Breeze, but well worth it to get good attitudes and good service. Because of slipping service levels and one rude service advisor, Pcola Honda is out a lifetime of my sales and service. More
Routine Service .. Asked for synthetic oil got regular oil. First service advisor wrote it up correctly but back and 2nd service advisor blamed 1st advisor. Brought car back for replacement with synthetic oil. First service advisor wrote it up correctly but back and 2nd service advisor blamed 1st advisor. Brought car back for replacement with synthetic. Andrew was very condescending and wrote off my concerns as 'old wives takes' after though research thru Honda Owners link and Mechanic online post .. And professional opinion of another dealer in the Atlanta , ga ( who I bought the Honda from.).. Honda owner for 26 years .. This is by far the worse dealer I have ever dealt with... Will not return .. I'll take it back to Georgia first before I return ... More
I had my vehicle with them at the end of January and the beginning of February as I had an oil leak. Last Wednesday night I contacted them via email with a concern I had over the possibility of another oil beginning of February as I had an oil leak. Last Wednesday night I contacted them via email with a concern I had over the possibility of another oil leak. Got a reply from a rep the next morning saying the service manager would contact me that day. I stated the best way was email. Still no reply. I emailed the rep who initially got my message to say as much. No reply since that Thursday and I've contacted him Friday and Monday. Very very dissapointing to be treated this way. A bit of respect and common courtesy could be taught to these people. Seems to be a trait with them going by the comments here. More
Christina McLemore was our sales person and she was just absolutely wonderful. She was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, not pushy, and fast. We have bought many new cars in past, and this was our best e absolutely wonderful. She was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, not pushy, and fast. We have bought many new cars in past, and this was our best experience. The financial manager, Danny, was fast and not pushy. I went back about a week later to have an accessory installed on our new vehicle. The serviceman, Ralph, was very friendly and helpful. The gentleman running the courier service was also very pleasant. I would highly recommend this dealership. Note: I drove from Ft. Walton Beach area to buy from this dealership. More
I made two mistakes with Pensacola Honda service department. The first mistake was when I needed repair on the Anti-lock brake system. Diagnosed problem myself but did not have the proper tools to department. The first mistake was when I needed repair on the Anti-lock brake system. Diagnosed problem myself but did not have the proper tools to repair it myself. Brought my car in and told them EXACTLY what needed to be replaced. I had called the day before and got pricing and estimated time of 2 hours for repair, so I was going to wait in the waiting area. After 6 hours I was told that they could not get the ABS to work. They also said that they had found other problems in the system and they would need to order those parts. I should have left then but decided that I could have missed something in my diagnosis and told them to proceed. Two days later they still could not get it fixed. I asked to look at the list of replaced parts and saw that they had not replaced the item I told them to replace. Once they did replace it, surprise, the ABS now worked. They then tried to charge me for all the labor and parts I did not need. They only relented and charged for only the parts I told them to replace after much debate. When I got in the car to leave, the brake pedal went nearly to the floor when I pressed on it. I asked if they had bled the brake lines. The mechanic said he did but I made him do it again. Twice. Still did not feel normal. Bled the lines myself when I got home and was able to remove the rest of the air. Felt normal after I did what they were supposed to do. The second mistake was thinking that maybe I had just gotten a bad mechanic the first time, so I tried again when one of the seals on the steering linkage started leaking. They said they did not replace seals and would have to replace the entire rack and pinion. Should have left that time too. Now the steering has so much slop that driving in windy conditions or uneven roads is nerve racking. The car no longer handles as before, but yet they insisted that all cars have slop in the steering. Two strikes and I'm out of there. More
I brought my pilot to your service dept for a 730 apt I brought my pilot to your service dept for a 730 apt this morning. I got there about a quarter to 7. I was going to just put my key in the key dr I brought my pilot to your service dept for a 730 apt this morning. I got there about a quarter to 7. I was going to just put my key in the key drop that most service departments have. At 650 the guy inside finanlly looked at me and I showed him the key like hey I just want to drop this off. He ignored me . Then this young guy came up on the side walk and was doing something with the stand they have out by the window and I asked him where was the key drop I needed to go. He went back inside and asked one of the guys inside at the service desk. The guy told him to come in and locked the door behind him. This was at 5 till. Apparently your service department missed the class on service. I did not leave my car there. I will find someplace else to have my work done. Had I known that this dealer only has a 2.5 rating I would have not bought from them. I should have known better to have come back after it took 6 hrs for the complimentary oil change the first time . After talking with others at work that bought from there I have found this to be common. You would think Honda motor corp would pay more attention to dealers with less than a 3.5 rating..

Very bad experience here, they are running this business ground but pulling record profits. This dealership is owned by venture capitalist that are only interested in squeezing profits out of the dealershi ground but pulling record profits. This dealership is owned by venture capitalist that are only interested in squeezing profits out of the dealership until it eventually fails and everyone walks away but the owners of the vehicles purchased. I unfortunately purchased a 2005 Honda Civic here with 70,000 miles on it, nothing but trouble. Car was clean on Carfax but turns out it was in an unreported crash and it has flood damage. They masked these problems well, wasn't till I had other problems that mechanics pointed out crash damage under the car and flood damage. When I signed paperwork at the dealership I unknowingly signed paperwork that relieves the dealership of any responsibility they have for covering up problems and lies they told. Don't buy here if you don't like getting taken for a ride. More
We bought a used car less than thirty days ago. The transmission went out two weeks ago and we called the dealer. We have been told someone will contact us and nothing so far, everyone is unavailable. transmission went out two weeks ago and we called the dealer. We have been told someone will contact us and nothing so far, everyone is unavailable. We pressured them for answer today and was told they cant do anything for us. We spend 8K on this car and now it will cost another 4K to fix it. Look at the previous complaints and take note that this is not the first time a transmission has gone up right after they sold it. DO NOT USE THIS DEALERSHIP. I wish I saw these reviews before I did any business with them. More
