Hi,
I have brought a new karisma hero honda from dealer in bangalore prakash motors.
I was not much satisfied with their delivary and service too. But then after first service I stared facing problems like : bike would get switched off in traffic, would not start at once.
There was some problem in noise too, then in 2nd servie they said some minor problem and they had kept my bike in their service center for 2 days.
Later they called me saying they want to replace the crank of my bike which is why the noise problem was.
But they replaced it with some old one.
Now I have been facing many problems like bike wont start,
Battery down. It will not start even after I kick start it 10 - 20 times.
I have dragged it so many times and jusd saved from major accidents.

Kindly address me to a consumer court so that I can file a case against hero honda and replace my bike.
Please help me out!

My husband and I purchased a used 2004 Honda CVRV approximately a week ago. While in the financial person's office signing contracts, I reminded our salesman that we still had not received the CarFax he had promised us.

He said that he would get it and proceeded to the manager's office. Shortly thereafter he brought us the CarFax which stated the vehicle we just purchased had a clean history.

We went home and I decided to print a CarFax of my own, at which time we found out the vehicle had been in an accident. The dealership had altered the CarFax to hide the fact that the vehicle had been in an accident and subsequently had defrauded my husband and I.

It also turns out that the original sole owner lives in the town that I work in so I decided to pay him a visit and obtain a written signed statement that the vehicle was in an accident, was hit in the front and was extremely costly to fix.

I have purchased a glamour hero honda bike in oct 2008, still in gurantee but facing problem in handle locking. Always after the rain I have to struggle with the handle lock for 4 to 5 days. On complaining with the service center they just put the oil but refuse to change the lock even it is in gurantee.

Service lady Sherri told me I needed all kinds of stuff done to my car in early January when it got to 106000 miles. I paid over $1300 for that work. In late February I got a recall letter from Honda and took it into another Honda dealer near my work. They found out that half the stuff Hidy charged me for was not even done. My spark plugs- brake fluid- transmission oil-generator belt- and filters were not even replaced! Even the front brakes they charged me for were not replaced! The Honda dealer I took it in to showed me my car and went over my Hidy Honda bill to show me where I had gotten ripped off. On my Hidy receipt it said to call a Chris Noland if I was unhappy. Even though I was mad, I calmly called him but he got outright nasty to me. When I told him about my car he got mad and started yelling at me on the phone. I figured they owed me about $500 for stuff they did not do and was offered only $100 as a refund. He said the other dealer was telling me lies to get my business. When I told him I saw everything he hung up on me. I called back and he and hung up the second he knew it was me. Nice customer service.huh?

I called back again asking to talk to Mr. Hidy and some guy with a weird voice answered. He did not sound like the same Mr. Hidy on TV and said his name was Joe. This guy treated me the same way Chris Noland did and hung up on me after threatening me. Its like birds of a feather do flock together! After spending all that money thinking I was getting such great service from Hidy Honda and then finding out that they ripped me off I want to warn as many people as possible. It turns out that the Joe guy who hung up on me is a lawyer. He is actually Joe Hidy of Hidy Honda and a pretty sleazy operator. After having to spend more money at the other Honda dealer paying for stuff that I already had paid Hidy to do there is no more money left to hire a lawyer to sue them. Besides I was told it would cost many thousands of dollars to go after the Hidy people and I simply cannot afford it.

Be warned that you cannot afford to take your car to Hidy Honda. The work is shoddy and they charge for stuff they do not replace. They even threaten you when you catch them ripping you off. If you still want to have your car fixed at Hidy Honda have another place look at your car before and after they work on it!

BEWARE OF HIDY HONDA SERVICE!

I have purchased Honda Activa in Apr2007, now on Aug2009 found one day while traveling suddenly the rear wheel of the vehicle was removed and we fell down, we are two and both were unconscious for half an hour, thanks to the 108 for the immediate help. When investigated found that the engine of the vehicle was blast and turned into piceses and the condition of the rear wheel was removed because of the blast took place in the engine and the wheel was out along withthe internal gear part and the v-belt.
this is not because of any accident between two vehicles or dash to any object. this was happened on empty plain road, so what it is surprised... and serious..
The engine and the condition of the vehicle is to bad to repair/recover.
Request you all to check the vecile before booking it or use.
May the honda activa have the problem or what exactly is under investigation.
The photograph and other proofs will be submited to the company and wait fo rthe reply.

Respected sir,
Your company is very famous so its product is sell world-wide. I had also bought a hero-honda super splendor bike on 2/MAY/2009. I had found some problem after 10-15 days. The rear shock absorber, chain cover created noise & pass light switch hadn't work. The engine got hot very quickly or just about in 2-5 km. I had complaint in the show room i.e in SHRI-RAM MOTORS but it was unusual.
Kindly take some major action as-soon-as possible...

The following is a complaint I've submitted to numerous entities including all interested Honda parties, the Better Business Bureau, Consumers Affairs and any organization that investigates existing lemon laws in the State of California.

On Saturday, September 5, 2009 I took my Honda Accord for a routine 12000 mile checkup. My service advisor was Oscar Scagliotti. After dropping off my Honda at approximately 10am I was called by him later in the afternoon to advise me that my left and right rear brakes were measuring 2mm. His professional recommendation was that they needed to be changed and it would cost me $169 to perform the brake replacement.

I advised Oscar I had purchased the Accord brand new in August 2008. I also reminded him it barely had $12000 miles on it. He argued with me that this was normal wear and tear and that it was reasonable to suggest the brakes would wear down so soon after purchase. I pleaded with him that this is not my understanding of Honda's long lasting reputation for quality products and service. I asked him if it was reasonable then to assume I would need to change my brakes every 12 months. He declined to directly answer my question but he didn't deny the logic in my question.

I told Oscar to not perform the brake job if it meant I would have to pay for it. I fully realize that normal 'wear and tear' is not covered by my lease contract. However, I don't feel its normal for your brakes to need replacement after only 1 year. I also want to emphasize I drive the car normally and as required never using any more brake than needed. I asked him to register my complaint with his superiors and told him I would be filing a complaint if the brake job was not performed without charge. I never heard back from Oscar and the brake job was not performed.

To conclude, I am fully registering my complaint with all parties listed at the top. My family has owned Honda's since the 1970's. We've owned Accords that have never necessitated a brake job so soon or any other major service. With this experience, I fully expect my family never to purchase any Honda products again or any Fladeboe product. In addition, I will tell all family and friends about my negative experience. I will take my dissatisfaction as far as I need to including local and national media, internet blogs and any other reasonable means to let other potential Honda consumers realize the low level of product and service.

This is not a threat just a consumers reaction to your product. I am asking for Honda to replace my brake and realize it is not unreasonable for me to expect products they sell to last for a long, reasonable period of time.

I welcome your feedback and comments. This best done by return email as I'm extremely busy during the weekdays to talk.
By the way, I haven't even mentioned the horrible experience I had in buying this automobile. I had a conversation with the General Manager on the horrible experience back then and hopefully that is documented. Later, the alarm had issues and you had to correct that. I should have filed a formal complaint then but have decided you guys have disappointed enough.

Sincerely,

Peter Lombardi

to whomsover it may concern, this is been a long time my bike unicorn which was bought in nov'08 n now from last 3 months the bike is giving problem of bad pick up n also jerks while riding.I had picked up this vehicle from sai honda in mahim also solve this same problem last in august where the change the part called carburetor diapharm but again same problem has occur. kindly solve my problem..

In september 2008 I have purchased my new hero honda splendor bike. From beginning I am suffering very poor service from rajdhani auto care. After each and every service performance of my bike reduced. Finally while servicing just after 9 month of purchase, tecnicians of rajdhani auto raipur told me that some parts of my bike are damaged and need to replace. They charged me 1000 rs for replacement. Can you belive just after 9 months parts of your bike may damaged. Hero honda group is popular but totally care less regarding such type of loot. Is that group also part of such loot...?

Dear sir,
I had purchased your hero honda passion plus vehicle on 11.09.2008 in my name k. Srinivasan at erode dealer m/s. Sri senthil autos, 134-b, perundurai road, erode.11. While driving the vehicle I found wabbling (ie shake while driving) from the day one itself. When I complained about this to the dealer they told that this is due to the tyres and they also changed both the tyres. Though they changed the tyres the problem was not rectified. I am residing now at tirupur since my office is at tirupur. Here when I service my vehicle at t.K. T motors, palladam road, tirupur I specified the complaint. But they are not able to identify the problem. I made three services there. But they are not able to identify the problem they passed the time only. Then after this I went to city motors, tirupur. There they are not able to correct the problem though this problem was insisted. They again come to old story to change the tyre. So I request you to kindly correct the problem immediately and send the reply immediately since the warranty is going to end on 11.09.2009. I would like to correct the problem before warranty. I expect your immediate reply in this regards.

Thanking you,

K. Srinivasan

I wanted a used car and therefore I contacted a salesman at this dealership and asked him to help me find it. It was just 2 days and he found a car and I agreed to buy it, and we negotiated the price. I needed it for my work but it needed a repair so I had to wait a week after we agreed on the deal. On the day I was to pick it up, I called our county to determine the cost of license, taxes and transfer fee. Armed with that and the price we agreed on I put money into my checking account to cover it. When I got to the dealership I was handed over to the man doing the paperwork. He was giving me the total cost which was $135 more than I had figured so I asked why. He said it was an administrative fee for handling the paperwork. He tried to comfort me with the line that if I buy a car here I have to pay it too. My problem is that this is thrown in at the last minute after I as a customer have made a deal and am ready to drive off. They know the psychology is such that most people will pay just to end the hassle of spending time looking for another car. Honest profit is necessary and they have a right to get their price, but sneaking in an additional charge at the end is manipulative, and dishonest. This fee has put their salespeople in the position of deceiving customers so they can squeeze additional money out of each deal. If I had known of this charge up front, I would have tried to negotiate a better deal. Make a through inquire before purchasing he car.

I mrs purnima upadhayay purchased a hero honda pleasure from sahib automobiles. My vehicle met with an accident on 12/8/09 and I submited it on the same day for repairing. Some of its were to be changed and the things were to collected from the company. After several requests I could not get it repaired as I received the information that the things have not been send from the company. I regret to inform that I did not get any response from the dealer and since last ten days the srvices have not been given to us. I request you to please look into the matter.
