Honda Cars India Complaints & Reviews

I have booked a bike for myself.The model is Hero Honda Passion Pro. The advance , an amount of Rs.10000/= in terms of cash has already been deposited as per receipt no : 2035 dated : 02/11/09. Since then I have been contacting the dealer about the delivery of the bike but there seems to be no real date when the bike will be delivered. The agency where I have booked the bike is as follows :


For U Services Pvt Ltd.
Varanasi Road.
Bharauhana
Mirzapur . UP.India

May I request you to kindly look into the matter and revert back to me as to when the bike will be delivered to me.Should I have enough dependability on Hero Honda or should I go for some other bike.

Hello,
We have purchased Honda Activa in Oct 2008 from Faridabad. All the services are done from there and we had also taken additional warranty till 5 years. But, since last few months we are having problem with Activa. Two months ago, after so many status updates we somehow managed to get the CDI unit replaced (or I don't know if they have fixed that). Now, today the same problem occured and I doubt the CDI is again the faulty thing. Why Honda is not paying attention to it's customers. I am serious about this complaint and need urgent resolution of the complaint otherwsie I may have to write poor feedback of the product on all websites and send the complaint to the govt official websites and consumer forum websites then Honda will face the govt themselves. The dealer is also not supportive in getting the thing changed when it is faulty. I need urgent solution to this plz.

I am very much regret to inform you that my Honda Activa Serviced by EVM Honda, S A Road, Vyttila Kochi - 19 was very bad standard as detailed bellow:-

Vehicle No. KL 7 AS 5685 given for routine servicing on 06/11/2009.

07/11/2009 - Nothing has done Vehicle kept as it is on that day and returned.

Again resubmitted on 08/11/2009 with a complaint oil leaking from engine side.

09/11/2009 vehicle returned with the same complaint - An amount of Rs.1864/- (Invoice No.091q18220 dated 09/11/2009.

Kindly look in to it and do the needful..

I AM A PROUD OWNER OF HONDA ACTIVA SINCE 7/2003. SO FAR I HAVE INTRODUCED AT LEAST 10 OF MY RELATIVES/FRIENDS/COLLEAGUES TO ACTIVA FAMILY. LET ME SHARE MY PROBLEM. PRESENTLY,I CURSE MY DECISION TO GIVE THE VEHICLE FOR SERVICE/REPAIR AT KTC HONDA VADAKARA. THIS CENTRE SEEMS TO BE EQUIPPED WITH PEOPLE WHO KNOW VERY LITTLE ABOUT SERVICE, PROMISE AND EFFICIENCY. THEY WERE TO GIVE BACK MY VEHICLE WITHIN TEN DAYS, AS PER THEIR PROMISE. BUT ALMOST A MONTH HAS PASSED, STILL I AM TELEPHONING THEM DAILY TO GET MY VEHICLE BACK. EVERY TIME THE LADY @ THE SERVICE DESK ASSURES ME THAT SHE WUD CALL ME BACK, BUT I AM FORCED TO RING HER AGAIN AND AGAIN TO GET THE SAME REPLY. I THINK KTC HONDA SERVICING PEOPLE AT VADAKARA HAS A TASK AHEAD TO MALIGN THE HONDA'S CUSTOMER CARE IMAGE. TILL DATE I HAVE ALMOST USED A MLY RECHARGE VOUCHER OF BSNL TO CALL THEM.SOME TIMES THEY SAY THAT PAINTER IS NOT PRESENT, OTHER DAY THEY SAYS THAT THE VEHICLE WILL BE READY BY TWO DAYS. THEY HAVE LITTLE SHAME TO CHANGE THE DELIVERY DATE OF MY SERVICED VEHICLE. AS OF NOW THE PROMISED DATE OF DELIVERY IS NEXT MONDAY. THE LADY AT SERVICE DESK AND THE SERVICE MANAGER MAY BE PLACED WHERE THEY ARE TO BE PLACED, ATLEAST NOT IN THE CUSTOMER CARE DIVISION OF A WORLD CLASS COMPANY. I WOULD SUGGEST HONDA COMPANY TO IMPART HRD TRAINING TO THESE IRRESPONSIBLE CHARACTERS. OTHER WISE THESE GUYS WILL BE IN THE FORE FRONT OF MALIGNING THE REPUTATION OF HONDA MOTORS AND THEIR CUSTOMER SUPPORT.

Respected Sir,
I have been a proud customer of the Honda Unicorn till[protected] I took it for a servicing at 'Aryabhangy Honda' an Authorized Sales and Service dealer in Alwaye,Ernakulam district of Kerala. I took my bike for a simple chain tightening since I was hearing the sound of chain hitting the chain cover while riding, they also charged me for this(Rs22/-), which I don't mind, but the result of the servicing was soo shocking that my first reaction was "Have these guys at least seen a bike, let alone know how to service it?". I now have a bike with loose chain cover and loose nuts near the chain that even a 2 year old can undo with bare hands. They have also damaged the washer at the chain cover and spoiled the wheel alignment. This have made me rue the moment that I decided to buy a Honda bike. Such poor servicing is not only unethical but I am considering going to Court as this kind of 'SERVICING' may some day kill me or any guy riding it. I suppose this kind of irresponsible behaviour amounts to unintentional manslaughter as per the IPC.

I have purchased a vehicle (AVIATOR) a product manufactured by Honda Activa company in the month of March 2009, from Jupiter Honda, Dabagardens Branch, Visakhapatnam.

It has not been a year but the complaints are very more and the servcing centre service, or the spare sparts or the manufacturing is not at all good. Within a span of 7 months purchasing of vehicle regular problems are arising out of it.

1) The vehicle condition is not good, and the engine pick up is not at all good.
2) The mileage of vehicle is very less i.e. between 30-35 km per litre. (Till day the vehicle runned only for 2500km, very early the mileage came down after 500km only)
3) The vehicle is having a special feature Disk Brakes, but normal brakes are also not working.
4) Service centre workmen are taking responsible while performing their duties, and handling the vehicle very negligently and they are answers are very reckless and negligent in manner.
5) When compared the vehicle condition is getting bad after getting service done, this the way the service of company is..!
6) The spare parts are usually getting damaged and even after replacement they are not working atleast for one month.
7) Self-start, kickrod nor choke are working in good condition.
8) When all the above reasons are discussed in person and gaved a complaint there is no responce from the company end.
*9) Recently I gaved my vehicle for 3rd servicing, and when the vehicle is returned the speedometer and headlight are not working, when the same was informed to the members of servicing centre their anwers are rude and negligent pointing out that the damage is made by me only.
*10) Apart from this all I made the replacement of headlight from my hand costing Rs.191/- and it has not been atleast one month, with in a span of 20 days it again got damaged.

The company nor the members of service centre are not taking any responce and they are laughing at the customers while they are feeling very sorry for their service. The same issues were raising with almost all the customers of the Dabagardens branch when I personnely spoken to them.

* The service centre people are saying that their salaries are very less and the work being done is more when compared to their pay's. They themselves are reporting that the Aviator model is failed in market. If so when making a purchase why they are blauffing the customers for their profits.

The Govt. is pleased to take action over this, and atleast help out the other customers who are facing the same problems from different territories also. There were more than 158 complaints made from customers, but why there was no responce from the Govt. end also. As customers we have the right to claim even for a single ruppe paid in purchasing product.

I have purchased a brand new honda activa from a dealer in Trivandrum (Kazhakkuttom) in Dec 2008.

Now I am facing starting trouble with my scooter especially morning hours. When I am trying to start either way by kick or self it is not working. The start requires minimum 10-15 kicks even with/ without choke. I have given the vehicle for rectification at the same dealer, but no use. The problem still there.

I have recently purchased Honda Activa scooter from your authorised dealer M/s. Saraf Honda, at Baramati, Dist. Pune. (Maharashtra). There is a problem since the vehicle was purchased. Frequent jerks are noticed in the handle assembly of the vehicle. This problem had been ecplained to the authorised dealer, but he is replying that the problem cannot be attended & saying that it is bad luck of the purchaser that problematic part has gone to him.
We are now of the opinion that Honda has opened a lottery centre & selling vehicles whose maintenance / condition is depending on luck of your customer. Also your company service engineer is not interested to attend complaints after sale of your product.
We hope that you will look into the matter & do the needful.

hi,

this is natraj,

i have given my vechile for servicing at FORTUNE MOTORS PVT. LTD. , M.G. ROAD, SECUNDERABAD - 500003, ANDHARA PRADESH, TELEPHONE : [protected], 6629090

INVOICE NUMBER : 09IW23236
INVOICE DATE : 06/10/2009


after servicing done, the handle does not move freely, either it moves towards right stiffly or to wards left and even scratches on the body.
when i produced these to the concerned person before delivery ,
"he says nothing happens its a minor , sir let it be."
i have spent money on plastic layer coating also.

later when the customer care have called me i have informed them the same issue.
they told that i can get my vechile back for checking.

ON 2ND NOVEMBER 2009 when i have apporached the service center with this problem
now he states that i should pay and get it done.

when i asked about the reason he says, U SHOULD HAVE GOT THE BYKE in 15 DAYS ONLY.

BUT, FAULT IS FROM THEIR SIDE, THEY HAVE NOT DONE THE SERVICING CORRECTLY
and ask me to bear it.

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE I HAVE EVER COME ACROSS.

U R PAID FOR THE SERVICE NOTHING IS DONE FREE...

I want the necessary action to be take against it.
I request the concerned authorities to take the necessary action.
