Honda Cars India Complaints & Reviews

I have booked a Honda Activa in the month of 13th March 2011 @ in the name of Manish Gupta at Autofin Honda Showroom at Himayatnagar branch in Hyderabad with a delivery date of 2 months from the date of booking. & now after more than 7 months we got our vehicle that too with increased rate. When we have booked long back why do the Honda Company charge as per current rate? Firstly there were late in delivering the vehicle and now even selling at the current rate which is making the vehicle costlier by almost 10 thousand (incl. all tax+ insurance) on road.

I would request you to help us in getting the vehicle on the same rate which was on the day we booked or two months from the date we booked.


Thanking you,

Komal Gupta

I want the above items urgently. my bike is standing still for last 25 days because of this. I have called my dealer abt 30-40 times and has paid advance also. This is my worst experiance with HONDA. They talk abt "The Quality" and this is what customer get back as service- mental harrasment and loss of money. Pls solve the issue urgently.

sir,
Iam very sorry to inform you that we had purchased a Honda Stunner from your Palakkad dealer(no:kl 080001).Unfortunately Iam not satisfied with the service from your palakkad and pattambi dealers and they are not caring the customer and even challenging us each time.They charged Rs1400/-(palakkad dealer)to change a chain socket and when we bargain they agree for Rs 850/-.I put my vehicle in their garage for a day and next day when i go there to take my vehicle they say there is no chain socket there.Iam unsatisfied and I don't want to encourage any one to buy your motor cycle because of your above dealer.Iam sending this mail just to bring this case to your attention and you to take further action.My contact address is given below.

SIR i would be very pleased if you inform me the actual status.& let me no what is the actual waiting period.OR we are cheated by your company appointed dealer. thanking you yours faithfully.VISHWANATH DIXIT HOSAYELLAPUR,DHARWAD.[protected]

Sir,
I have honda shine bike. I bought it form Muthoot Honda, Pathanamthitta the dealer of honda bikes. At the selling they provide somamny offers and service guareentee. Now a days they are very irresponsible to handle the grievence about the bikes and all. Preveious month i want to change my front madgad, but still now i don"t get it. I think its the problems of administrative and purchase department of muthoot honda. So the Honda company are also responsible to solve the problems of the customers. I think the Administrative department of Honda company in India can do something and try to take the necessary action aganist the muthoot honda and its servicing department.

I booked a Honda Activa on 22nd Oct at Shuban Sai Honda Show room at Najafgarh and paid 24,000 as booking amount. They provided me the delivery date of 24th Oct. They called me yesterday and asked to get the delivery as per the schedule. I went there and told them that I would not need accessories so get my scooty ready without accessories however the manager said that I need to purchase accessories or else wait till 15th November to get the delivery. I told him that I have a booking for today and even though I'm not purchasing accessories, my booking still stands so why can't I get it today. He said, he can't do anything today and I'll need to wait. Ultimately I had to cancel my booking and pay an amount of Rs 500 for the same. I think this is not justified, If we have a booking for a certain date, we should be allowed to get the delivery even without accessories. Please have someone look into this and put a check on this extortion by the Honda dealers. They make vehicles readily available if you are ready to purchase additional accessories from them or else you need to wait for some outrageous periods. It is only hurting the reputation of Honda as a brand and needs immediate attention. Looking forward to some change. If you want to contact me, please contact me on my email address [protected]@yahoo.com.

Today i visited to your authorized dealer M/S ISHAAN MOTORS, ALWAR (RAJ.)
to buy a new honda activa scooter but i am very much regret to write that M/S ISHAAN MOTORS, ALWAR (RAJ.) has compelled to buy the accessories with scooter.I m very keenly interested to buy your scooter without accessories but they refuse to deliver the scooter without accessories.Few yrs. ago i had purchased your scooter(activa) and I m not satisfied with the quality of services which they renders to us ..........they denied to give us scooter without accessories. i want to confirm whether it's your company's policy or not .. The accessories are of local brand and they charge heavy amounts from us..it's very upsetting and a kind of exploitation of customers....

staff members also talk rudely and their behavior is intolerable.

i m interested to buy scooter on Monday i.e 24th Oct.2011..

plzz take the necessary steps against them to wake them from their slumber.

i want to complaint against the dealer of activa -sangam autos, modinagar branch,main sahibabad.i bought the activa 1 year later but the battery started giving problems.they replace me a new battery of exide.actually in papers they mention amco company batery. but the give exide battery.but the battery is again started problems when i tell them they give useless reasons.so i myself went to the exide dealer and ask for replacement.but later on they rejected my claim because in papers amco battery mention. the exide dealer said how it is possible.then when i ask the dealer he gave reasons and try to make fool of me.in this the dealer passes my waranty period few days ago.now he is saying that he cant do anything..the exide company is also saying that the second battery activa dealer gave you is second hand.. because in papers there is amco battery.there are lot of complaints against the dealer.....

Respected Sir,
This is Jay Shah from Ahmedabad
I have an complaint against the universal honda( Authorised Showroom Of the Honda 2wheeler products).
I want to purchase an activa so i visited the office o[censored]niversal honda situated at lal darwaja city ahmedabad
the on road price of the vehicle is around 52000 but they demand 56000 saying that the accessory is compulsory to purchase.
so the cost of accessory is rs 2000 in the out side market and they charge more than 4000 so this is unnecessarily extra burden on the consumer.
all the dealers made a cartel and they all are saying this
so please do something

Respected sir,
I booked a HONDA AVIATOR DELUXE RED in one of your showroom ,HASAN ASSOCIATES PRIVATE LIMITED,PUDUCHERRY,
,BOOKING NO:B034313 on 27.8.11. From the date of booking the showroom executives told that the vehicle will be delivered within 45 days.There is no response from the dealer even if we call him through phone ,there is no proper and relevant information from the person concerned.
The current status what the dealer said is you come to our showroom directly and cancel the booking order stating that we are not in need of the HONDA AVIATOR DELUXE RED as it is getting delayed and to book some other model of honda after giving a letter in the showroom. . We planned to get Honda aviator deluxe because of the features what it possess,as because of your dealers response we regret for choosing Honda aviator .
my contact number is [protected], and my mail id is [protected]@gmail.com.
I kindly request to take neccessary actions to ensure that we possess the vehicle within a short span of time.

I currently own a hero honda hunk.My warranty period is about to end in a month.My digital speedometer is not working since 2 long months.A new one costs Rs[protected] as per the dealer.Although its included in the warranty,the dealer is not able to provide the same as company doesn't supply it to them.The question is "Why does the company provide such a fake warranty where the warranted parts are not given care??"
"Why isn't company able to provide the parts?"
"Why is there no provision to extend warranty for such critical cases?"

I went A.S mortors gwalior for my 1st free service.

after the service was done i went back pick up it and without my render notice the engine oil was changed and i was asked to pay Rs 180/- for the oil change which was not mentioned in any document. the total run was only 600 km.

I visited at shaibag Ahmadabad (Gujrat) Honda show room for booking active. They told me give, 1000/- to booking amount and it will take a time 8 to 9 month. I say ok I pay you that amount. Its one type of deposit for you for 9month so you have to pay me interest on that amount. At that time Mr. Tajendr came in this matter he is store manger of that store. As per him 500 person are given 1000/-Rs. As a deposit at our store. I reply him this is not a good thing you are using that amount (1000*500) its without interest. So you are doing money making . he reply you wont to book hear you can do otherwise door is there. I say take my chque and give me booking memo. And I ask him plz give me knowledge what booking no is going today & what my no. he told that one is confiditonl I can’t give you. I told him must have to give me knowledge of this even. He reply it’s not came in my part. I say ok . suddenly I saw EDC machine is there I told him so plz take my payment from Your EDC machine he reply you have to pay 2.5% extra charge for this. I told him so plz take it if you are not give me any interest and you asking change of EDC machine using. Suddenly he told me I am not going to book you active hear I say why ? he told me you asking us so many question right now. you waist our morning now . They don’t book it so what should I have to do plz give us knowledge.

Dear Sir,

I recently had bike service (on[protected] from your authorized service center in Tumkur and I am really dissatisfied with the service and felt bad with the way your people behave in the service center.
It is very sad that, your people behave very arrogantly with the customers. When I went to receive back my bike after the service (at around 4:00 P.M) it is noticed that the bike was not washed properly and when I informed this to the manager, he told that he can't see each and every bike and it was not necessary to was the bike as part of the free service.
But, when I asked him for the proof of his statements he said that he will rewash the bike.

I was not expecting this type of replies from your service center and I am really sorry to say that, you are literally harassing the customers. Please try to correct the mistakes.

Regards,
Gireesh

A) 4 months old-bike about more than 25 times in last 4 month has been taken to the workshop (archana motors-Vikhroli) for the same problem. the spark plug gets shot every other day. I am not happy with Passion pro and i believe my hard earned money is going waste.

B) Hero Honda Passion Pro fails to give a milage above 40 Km/Ltr. even after 3 services it is failing to get an ordinary average og 40 km/ltr.

I would suggest not to prefer hero motocorp bikes to all the potential buyers

on 13.10. 2011 about 1700 hrs in the evening North Paravur showroom of Aryabhangi Motors Alwaye delivered me Activa Honda bearing frame No. ME4JC448JB8514800 which I purchased registering it on my name. The handle is very stiff. I approached the servicing center and reported the matter on 14.10.2011 in the morning and they said this can only be corrected in the first servicing. Why is this so? Am I not entitled to get get a vehicle in perfect condition?

The handle is very stiff to the left side. I still drive a car, and Bajaj scooter and Unicorn two wheeler. I have some substantial experience in driving I find it difficult to handle this Honda Activa The service center is hopeful of getting the mistake corrected itself after the vehicle runs for a month or 750 kilometers .Let it get corrected.But Who will be responsible if I meet with an accident because of this handle disability.I am sorry to mention here that a friend owns an Activa Honda with a defective handle and it is almost 7 years the mistake is not yet corrected.

Another point is the delivery of the vehicle is not transparent. I insisted that I must see the vehicle before it is registered on my name. but the showroom said it can only be seen after registration . The vehicle with any defect is imposed on head of the purchaser. The chance is not given to avoid such a vehicle. The money paid is true and transparent why not the product be so?
I think the people concerned will look into the matter and advise me what to do and advise the servicing center at North Paravur Aryabhangi showroom to do the needful

Kumardhubi, Dhanbad(Jharkhand). Since the beginning the mileage was under 25 km/L and after two service engine started to have a very hot and low compression. The problem is increasing day by day. Though I complain this till the dealer not lisening it.
I think that that the engine is defected. I am asking for the replace or rectify my engine or oil cunsume problem.

This is Abhijeet again Vehicle no.- HR 29 Y 0248, who already complained about 2 months ago regarding the service provided by Regent Honda in Sector-15 A, Faridabad. At that time my bike battery was on warranty but create some disturbance so they charged it but result remain the same. I put up the complain and the processing was stop from there side only by discussing the matter with me.

Although i decide to change the service station and prefer to get the battery charged from outsider. Now after a month i again went to REGENT HONDA for servicing and asked them to change the battery and Rear mirror( for this i asked them for last 6 mnth). But at the time of job cart they told me they will change the battery and get the Rear mirror for me. but at the time of delivery they simply told "We do not have battery and rear mirror on our Stock".

and every individual who purchased their vehicle from their showroom have the same complaint. I found Stunner as a waste for me and its not self start its now dhakka start.

The best part of Regent honda is that every individual have attitude there. It seems like they do something great by selling the bike to us. and now we have to bear their attitude. For an inf. i need to go here and there. Mr. Girish, Great guy, dont want to listen anything.

I dont know how Honda give Licence or dealership to these kind of person.

But at last i left with dhakka bike and know its going further as well.

Abhijeet
