      Complaint Type:
      Service or Repair Issues
      Status:
      Unanswered
      June 2023 I received a warranty extension letter from Honda automobile division. My A/C was not cooling. The warranty letter explained a shaft seal leak issue was identified which could lead to refrigerant leaking out. This warranty would extend from 3 years to 10 years. I took my vehicle to Autonation ******* Honda 7/3/2023 and spoke with ****** and explained I wanted the warranty work completed only. 2 days later I received a call asking me why I dropped the vehicle off. I explained why again and left a copy of the warranty letter on the front passenger seat for the service advisor to review. I received a call on 7/15/2023 from ****** stating my vehicle was ready, I arrive and charged $170.00 for nothing. Warranty work was NOT completed and found out after I purchased a compressor that there were 2 recalls covered under a Honda Warranty. My fiance and I called and spoke with the ** *********************** who assured us he would get to the bottom of our concerns and after providing him proof, refused to call us back. My fiancee spoke with him and advised she would escalate this because this appeared to be fraud, He told her to," do what you want to", as he wasnt going to be threatened. She never threatened anything but to escalate it to the owner and Honda. She and I are both concerned Honda wont pay for warranty work twice if they are deceptive and get paid for work they didnt complete. My vehicle is now at another Honda and they've discovered warranty work wasnt completed which should have been at Autonation ******* Honda. I will fail their survey as the ** expressed absolutely No concern and wont refund my money. I'll definitely share my concerns with every resource imaginable along with *********************, *********************** and ******, as staff that shouldnt be trusted without something in writing or recorded. Word od advice to them: Don't charge customers for Unauthorized/Incomplete work. Warranty work is Free! This organization is greedy based upon my First interaction with them. *************************** level of disrespect, untrustworthyness,despicable, unprofessional behavior is disgusting and a discredit to this so-called business.

      Absolutely the WORST experience I have ever had. They allowed me to drop my car off for a diagnostic on a Friday afternoon, telling me that they would most likely get to it the next day (Saturday) and that the diagnostic takes an hour. What they did NOT tell me was that they don't do diagnostics on Saturdays and are closed on Friday. So, then why was I not informed that so that I could keep my car and bring it back on Monday since they weren't even going to LOOK at it till then? I reached out on Saturday with no answer and then called again and again on Monday and could only reach anyone when I went through parts or scheduling with a representative. My service advisor, ******, was supposed to get in at 9 and call me, but I never heard from her till 10:30, after me again calling several times and no one being able to reach her, even from me calling her direct line. At the time she finally reached out to me, there was STILL no information about my car and she told me "I might be able to give you more information tomorrow (Tuesday)". So now I still have no information and a rental car I am spending almost 400 dollars on that I could have just not even rented till Monday. ******, the service manager, took NO accountability at all and I am still in the dark on what is going on with my car and still paying for a rental car I shouldn't have to be paying for. This business should not even be in practice with how awful they do business. DO NOT go there, they will scam you.
