Better you can write a strong mail about this to Honda representatives instead of begging these local dealer owners and service guys ... they just simply employed stupid guys who dont have proper tranings..

please write a mail to all the big shots of Honda-India then it will work, my friend did the same for his Sony TV set that really worked out and immediate response from the regional sales manager and he got the new TV too in time of 3 days

To the concerned Department

I am sorry to say that the after sales service of Linkway Honda is so bad that I cannot refer any new customer for a vehicle to purchase from Linkway Honda, Chandivali, Sakivihar road.

I booked my vehicle Honda City VAT during end of January, 2010 with a request that the vehicle should be delivered on 14th February, 2010 (Valentine’s Day) It was a surpise gift for my wife on the auspicious day. But all my plan went into the drain when the Sales Executive informed me on 10th February that it is not possible to deliver the vehicle on 14th February. The reason was my loan was not sanctioned. I submitted all my papers to Linkway Honda & they were suppose to arrange the loan from Kotak Mahindra Bank (recommended by Linkway Honda) & they informed me that Kotak will process the loan faster & they will disburse the amount within 3 days. Kotak was sitting on my loan documents for one week but with no results. I contacted HDFC Bank & there service was good & the loan was disbursed within 3 days. I request Linkway Honda Management to remove Kotak Mahindra from the panel of loan department so that such incident will not happen in future. Even Kotak disclosed all my confidential data with other banks which was a embarrassing situation for me & this spoiled my credit history with other banks.

I received the vehicle at the end of February, 2010 from your showroom. I confirmed the timing before taking the delivery. When I came to the showroom for the delivery the work was half completed. Polish was not done for my vehicle & they have kept the vehicle down for delivery. I pointed out this to the sales executive who took the vehicle back for polishing & I with my family & relatives was waiting in the lounge area for nearly 5 hours. I received the vehicle late evening & the pooja of the vehicle was done at late night in the temple.

I was asked to fill a feedback form in which I mentioned all these problems. But till today nobody from Linkway Honda called up. I never expected this type of service from Linkway Honda. I came to know that Linkway Honda is a ISO certified showroom. I don’t know how you got the certificate (may be corrupted people are sitting at ISO office).

My 1st service was due after 1000 kms. I took the vehicle to Linkway Honda for servicing. Waited at the reception for almost 45 minutes. There was 3 major problems which I explained to the representative 1) when closing the glass the full door starts shaking 2) Leather panel on the right hand side of the drivers seat was not fitted properly 3) Polishing was not done properly. When I went to take the delivery nothing was done. The representative informed me nothing can be done it’s a faulty in all our Honda vehicles. Even the car was not cleaned properly from inside & outside. Worst experience on 1st service. I was totally disappointed (please check the feedback form which I have filled at your office)

My 2nd service on 27th May, 2010 again the same problem was told to your representative nothing was done. I asked him what is the service that Honda gives. He informed me that we check the brakes, alignment, oils, etc.. etc.. etc… When Linkway Honda cannot wash the vehicle properly which is easily visible how can we trust that the above things has been done.

I request all my friends not to put your hard earned money in buying Honda Cars. After sales service is VERY VERY VERY Bad. Honda should stop manufacturing cars if they cannot detect the problems.

I request the management to kindly take up this issue seriously…

I had booked for activa and aviator on 13 december 2009 vide booking no. 59530 and 59531 and Receipt Nos. 010254 and 010255 issued by Om Sai Autoworld, Charmoorthy Compound, Chincholi Bunder, Link road, Malad - West, Mumbai - 400 064. I was told that the delivery will take 3 months and 2 months respectively. When I called up the dealer on 16 march 2010 that is after the date of assumed delivery, suprisingly he replied that the delivery process of October 2009 is still in progress and I shall get delivery accordingly.

It is surprising that both the above scooters are available very near to our home at Retails stores on ready delivery basis by them charging 3000 Rupees more than the Om Sai Prices. Please look into the company policy of making the scooters available at a premium and not giving delivery for booking.

Your prompt reply towards the above shall be highly appreciated.

Honda financial has a by the name of Garvin working for them who is the rudest and dumbest person I have ever spoken with. He was so insulting that my family and I will never buy another Honda again. The dealer knows me as I have bought Hondas before and because of my status in the community, and I told them that once they fire dumbass Garvin (from the Atlanta, Georgia office) I will consider buying a Honda. In the interim I will work to discourage everyone I know from buying a Honda. Honda has the rudest employees I have ever dealth with and do not deserve your business. BUYER BE AWARE!

Honda Activa — poor treatment by ess ell motors patelnagar dehradun

Dear sir its the reminder cum fresh complaint against the one filed on 07/02/2010 by me i.ei Mrs neelam thapliyal from dehradun. I bought Honda activa on 02/04/2010 chassis no. ME4JC445C98011150 engine no. JC44E0011017 vehicle registration no. UK07Z1131 from ESS ELL Motors446, Rajpur road dehradun.My free service details are
1) 26/04/09 325km
2) 26/07/09 1725km
3)30/10/09 2838km
4) paid service 07/02/2010 3730km
Fourth service was made paid by ESS ELL motors P{atel nagar Dehradun because I was late due to sudden death of my beloved father.
After 4th service acid got discharged from the battery which has left indelible marks on th front mudguard/ fender.On reporting the matter to the said service centre I was told that it would be a paid service as your vehicle has dents in it. Dents on the scooter occurred because it slipped on the wet road and vehicle has poor control on such situations unlike my previous vehicles.
I reported this matter to the said agency after the first service for which they advised me to leave th vehicle for atleast four days to have insurance claim. i couldn't make it because of my job obligations.
The said agency in the past persuaded me to have teflon coating done on the scooter as the company colour gets faded soon. As I refused to do the same they took hostile attitude against me after that and refused every cooperation since then.I called Gurgaon office on 18/02/2010 and i was told that area manager will have a look on the vehicle but no one has contacted yet.
Sir i purchased the vehicle on the recommendations of my friend Deepika khatri who owns three activa in the family. She was given excellent service by Paradise Honda Mohabbe wala dehradun.
With type of vehicular problem and its deffects I have faced and the callous behaviour of Mr narender Batra Manager of Ess Ell Motors Patel Nagar Dehradun I am feeling the vehicle has become a liability on me rather that being a proud owner now.
I request u to take corrective measures on your part to redress my grievances and eliminate the faulty design problem in the vehicle. Moreover Ihave decided not to visit Ess Ell Motors Patel Nagar in future. My phone no [protected] M [protected] Husband's no [protected]

REMINDER NO. 2 I am surprised that despite sending earlier reminder also Honda company is having deaf ear towards the genuine problem and trying to shield a rogue person like Mr Narender Batra Manager of Ess Ell Motors Patel Nagar for their vested interest. I am sure that a faulty product and a dissatisfied customer like me will definitely bring no good in future terms and company must realise this thing with a serious view. Sure the problems can come but always with the solution if viewed seriously. I t know that overconfident Mr Batra under the protection of the company is really going to harm company's interest while Mr Oberoi of Paradise Motors will really serve the people with interest.

SIR i am sure company is reluctant towards my complaint against ess ell motors patel nagar dehradun as it believes on the story of ess ell motors. Now i have no option but to approach media against such malpractices and befooling of the customer by your end. More over I will file the case against the said dealer and tha company in consumer forum.

Paradise Automobiles/Activa — Late delivery of Scotter

Dear Manager

I booked a Activa (Deluxe) Scootter vide receipt no. 2459 on 18 Dec, 2009 at Pparadise Automobiles, Chanderbani Chowk, Mohabewala, Dehradun, Uttrakhand, They confirmed the delivery of scooter after Ninty days. But unfortunately after waiting more than hundred days they are not listened to our request about the delivery of booked scooter. Even they are not behave like a gentleman with customers. After waiting more than hundred days they told me to cancel your booking and purchase scooter from other company.

I am totally dishearten from the behavior of agencies official.
Please take the necessary actions on them and do the needful.

Your Sincerely
Vandna Manchanda

Very strange to see that the honda officials have not even bothered to revet on this issue raised. They cannot do away with their responsibility of attending to customer grievances. They are liable for all mischief done by the dealer appointed by them.

HELLO. READ UR COMPLAINT, , I DO NOT THINK THEY WILL DO THE JUSTICE 2 U, I AM ALSO SUFFERING FROM THIS HONDA COMPANY .THEY R SELLING THEIR GARBAGE IN INDIA LIKE A HOT CAKE NOBODY CAN DO ANYTHING 2 THEM ...IN MY WORDS LONG LIVE TO HONDA BUT ONLY IN HELL ...THERE ALL BIKES R FLOPS IN INDIA AS AN INDEPENDENT MANUFACTURER ONLY NOW ACTIVA IS SELLING BECAUSE THEY HAV NO COMPETITOR LEFT WAIT 4 SOME TIME ..TVS WIGO IS THERE IN MARKET AND MAHINDRA RODEO HAS ALSO ARRIVED & AND WHAT ABOUT SUZUKI ACCESS..THEY WILL ALL SET BACK THE BRAND ACTIVA ..AS IT SUCKS...

I was purchased Honda Stunner on Feb 2012 from ESS KAY HONDA, Before purchase bike sticker had already damaged but dealer said we will get sticker with in one week, but now third month is running. Dealer responce is very poor, they don't know the imprtance of customers.

Worst service ever i have got from any service station the person there named Gagan i don't know his designation. But he don't know how to speak / Deal with customers i recently face a problem with him he will not provide proper information regarding the progress of serviced vehicle and in the end time gives excuses for not delivering the vehicle i am very much disappointed with his behavior. Owner Mr.Narender Batra should have to take some strict action towards this issue otherwise there customer will not be satisfied and they have to look for some alternate service center due to of person like Gagan If any other person faces the same problem or if any from that service center may contact me in my mail id [protected]@gmail.com.

I want Gagan named person to be kiced out of Honda patel nagar service center...

trivandrum, kerala.they said me to wait for 40 days to get the vehicle.but after 50 days i did nt get it. when i asked the dealer about it but their responsible is not good.they are saying unbelievable reasons. i want the bike urgently

T.M SHAMEEM
Attingal, Trivandrum

Me too faced a issue with same Hero Honda Dealer ( Chernan Automobiles ) at Trivandrum. Communication from these people are not responsible. After 45 days from booking I forced to cancel the booking and lost money from advance money which I paid..

21st September, 2010
The Managing Director
Honda Ltd.
Gurgaon

Sir,

This is to bring to your kind notice that one vehicle HONDA ACTIVA was booked on 10.09.2010 through M/s.Satnam Motors (Pvt.) Ltd., 36, Main Tonk Road, Jaipur and an advance of Rs.1, 000/- was also paid vide their Receipt No.54825 dated 10.09.2010 for this purpose (Copy enclosed). Yesterday the 20th September, 2010 when I went to take delivery of the vehicle they compelled to purchase all accessories of the vehicle and Anti Theft Lock and also they compelled me to pay coating charges, additional cost of which is to be paid around Rs.5, 500/- hence, I request them to deliver the vehicle without accessories and other extra fittings. They told strictly that the vehicle will not be sold without purchasing of accessories, because now-a-days demand of this vehicle is very high, hence they sell the vehicles to those customers who like to take the accessories. They also said that I can cancel the booking if I do not take accessories. Their behaviour with customer including the owner of the company was very rough & rude.

In the above situation I am compelled to cancel my booking.

In view of the above, I want to know that is it correct that Honda Activa is not being sold without purchasing of its accessories. Can your dealer insist the customers to take delivery of the vehicle with accessories only?

The brand image of Honda Activa is spoiled by such Dealers. Will you take any action against such Dealers or ignore it !!!.

Still I want to purchase the Honda Activa without accessories but in Jaipur the vehicle is not readily available with other dealers. If so it will take another 10-15 days for new booking.

Kindly look into the matter and I am waiting for your early & prompt action in this regard and help me to purchase the vehicle today itself.

Thanking you in anticipation.

Yours faithfully,

(MANOJ KUMAR SONI)

i also got same complaint.i have booked unicorn giving rs.5000 and still waiting for delivery for 2 months

I too face the same problem. I recommend not to book the any Honda vehicle

hi this is kishore frm rajahmundry.i paid advance on feb for new activa.they never gave me a responce.when i called them they told to me after the bike comes we will call u.but havent called me.when i called them last week they told me to come to show room.then i went then they are saying that acceserioes are compelsary i.e 6600 rs extra.i told them i dont want acceserious.with acceserious only they gave me the bike.for t/r.they took 450 where as the ost of t/r. is 15 rs, and the handling charges are 550 they are demanding.so u honda people just go to KODURI HONDA in rajahmundry and just check out .just watch it.if we give them black i.e.,[protected] we will get any bike on the spot.so honda had good reputation .please dont spoil on giving permission to such people.in that shoeroom raju sales executive is there he is most cunning broker.my contact number is [protected]

you are not the only one sir. equally linkway honda, andheri, mumbai is also careless about registering that the customer says and they do like mechanicals objects whatever their ISO procedures says. they just do the basic level of cleaning of the vehicle from outside and basic vacuuming from inside so that when they return the car the customer gets the feeling that that car is serviced.
everytiime i give them a list of check points say 4 or 5 and most of them dont get done.
during one of the service it was so pathetic that they didnt even care to clean the battery overflow never the terminals. sometimes i wonder whether they have recruited knowledged and trained mechanics or else housekeeping trained personnel to do servicing - since both are called "service".
this has happended with me for the four services and they continually are hopeless. in this regard. this time i am planning to try another service center. will update upon the level from theirs.

yes, for some people its a joke. Otherwise, they have the target for the month which could have been achieved and they delay it simply because, your booking could fall in the next quarter or month.

Its simply bullying the customer. Dont pay the full amount untill the day of delivery.
