Honda service dealerships
Does anyone know any honda dealerships that service lowered cars? I took my car to hayward honda and they wouldn't service my car because it was too low. They told me that there are some dealerships that have a flat rack for lowered vehicles. Thanks.

Rep Power: 289 Good luck dood...Stockton Honda told me the same thing....I overheard someone say that San Leandro Honda can do it...might wanna give them a call!!
edit: I called San Leandro Honda...they have a swing arm rack...basically not a lowered rack...he said they have had success in the past with lowered cars on the rack though...they jack up the end of the car and then slide the swing arms underneath...might wanna shoot by there and see if they can do it!! Hope this helped you!!!!

did u see the rack? tell them you'll do it yourselves. because i know most dealerships dont service lowered cars just because its lowered. if you cant find any dealership, then ask them to take a look at the rack, and if u think u can make it, tell them you'll drive up the rack yourselfs.
i know a member here did that when a dealership(?) refused to work on his car cause it was too low. he drove the car up the rack himself and the shopkeeper got owned.

Rep Power: 0 I've been having my oil changes at hayward honda since I bought my car. At the last oil change however, I complained to them that they scratched my front lip. Maybe that's why they didn't want to service my car anymore? I have a kaminari lip kit and have no problem driving straight to speedbumps. It sucks because I bought their sentinel service so I have to find another dealership who services lowered cars. Thanks for all the replies.

Rep Power: 0 I just called san leandro honda and they told me it depends on how low the car is. When I asked them what kind of rack they had, they told me their rack is the same as hayward honda's. It's looking like there would be no more oil changes for me at honda dealerships.

im gonna assume the person who drove it up the rack didnt give a rats *** when he put it on the lift. prob drove over it and didnt care to drive over it real slow.

Rep Power: 0 I have enough clearance to drive on regular speedbumps. So I guess my front lip is as high as a speedbump. Also, my front lip is out of my car for repainting so I'm gonna try getting an oil change again tomorrow. If you're working thursday thugginazn, just let me know how I can contact you and I'll show you how low my car is, I'll be going there around 10 am.
