warranty??????????????

I took my car to honda b/c the roters are bad (17000mi). They said it would be $179. So granted I said f you the car is under warranty for 36,000mi. so they said ok. they called me and told me my car was ready for pick up they had to order them. I get to the dealer and they say its a $36 fee to look at my car so once again I said f you I'm not paying you. after a while of that they said whatever take you're car somewhere else. what did we buy a brand new car for. This bullsh*t need to stop honda used to be a good company.[IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG]

well since its under warrantee I would just bring it to another Honda Dealership in the city ... they still have to honour it ... Just like in my city some dealerships are known to be bitches when it comes to fixing things under warrantee ... If I were you I would report them to Honda Regional Director (or anyone higher than the on-site dealership) ... to let them know whats going on and if there is a Better Business Bureau ... like we got in Ontario ... I would report them.

If it is because of wear......your responsible for the wear parts, not Honda

thats not a bad idea I mean what the hell I have nothing to loose there not going to work on my car anyway. this is the 2nd time something like this has happend. the first time was for the seat rail. at the same time I told them about the roters when it first started to shake. I told them when you hit the breaks at 70mph you could feel it. they came back and told me they could not help me b/c it is illeagle to go that fast in ohio. f**k this. payback time.[IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG]

Welcome to my world. I feel for you. Twice brought in for warranty work, twice returned unfixed. "Thats not broken", "We don't HAVE to fix that", and twice, "I don't hear anything" , all in two visits! The reason I got into cars is because I had to fix the problems honda wouldn't.

But you learn fast that way.

Want something done right, you've got to do it yourself

Just take it to another dealer, if they do the same thing keep on taking it to another dealer until you find one that you can trust[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

BAD IDEA. Do not ever tell the dealer you were racing your car. Track, street, wherever. They will not cover any racing-related damage. You usually have to sign an insurance waiver before you can run on a track that informs you that if you mess something up, it's your ***. The Honda warranty isn't going to cover track damage, and if you tell them that, they may be able to can the entire warranty.
If they give you **** about doing 70, tell them you were coming home from Michigan. The limit is 70 up there. Or just flip them off and go somewhere else.
