Car had check engine light on . I took it in 3 times a received 3 different answers as to what was wrong with my car. They way over charge you in labor to fix car issues so I had the car fixed somewhere else. Needless to say they can?t get the check engine light to go off. Not happy all. It?s a Honda ; of all people you should know how to get the check engine light off your own products. Non of the suggested repairs fixed the problem. There are no codes in the OBD II reader. I believe I paid to repair parts that had nothing to do with the issue. I believe the issue is now a Honda computer issue. I tried to give them the opportunity to fix it. First time told me it was catalytic converter issue. They updated my computer and reset the check engine light . Light came back on. I changed the spark plugs after reading this could cause the code. Took it back and they told me it was the IMA battery now keep in mind the catalytic converter code cleared. Had battery replaced somewhere else because they wanted to charge me 6hrs is labor to put it in. It took the other place 45min. Third time I took it back no codes on two different OBD II but somehow the issue was the catalytic converter. They didn?t check the parts that were supposedly wrong before asking me to replace them. No physical inspection. No trouble shooting other than hooking up the code reader. I can?t get any codes but yet somehow they can. Also the code on the last sheet they gave me was dated 2/20 even though I took it in September. Just saying not happy. I was told they would call me with an estimate for the catalytic converter repair. Still no call, txt, or email. They didn?t even reply to my ?I wasn?t happy with my service email? that they initiated asking me how I felt about the service. . hence the review. Not to mention that even with an appointment it took them 2hrs to just run a code because they couldn?t look at my car until 10:30 with an 8am appointment. It has just been a horrible experience. At a time like this I felt they could have cared more but they didn?t. Only positive thing I can give them is that they didn?t charge me the two times I had to come back but they didn?t do much and the issue wasn?t fixed the first time. On previous visits it has always taken 4hrs with an appointment to get my oil changed as well. Why even bother with appointments. Oh and I had to go up there to make the last two appointments because I couldn?t get anyone to answer the phone. 2months of frustration. Still have the light after $2k of repairs. I was going to let them change the converter but they never called so I felt they didn?t want my business. Had it repaired somewhere else and again the check engine light is still on. At this point they should Fix the computer for free or do any other repairs needed to get the light off for free.

Listen when I tell y'all the experience that I have had today was something better than amazing first we'll talk about yesterday I went to a place found the car that I liked test drove it was pretty much told I had the car. I didn't even ask for a Carfax so that was probably a dub. eventually it came back that banks had denied me. I have been shopping for a car the wrong way,doing multiple applications not realizing that although it doesn't effect my credit score, yet many hard inquiries for lenders to see... a finance manager that I know personally told me that I would not be approved a car loan because I have far too many hard inquiry needless to say I was discouraged didn't want to look for a car that day and I just realized that hey I'm going to have to go somewhere with in-house finance and end up upside down in a loan however in the same breath and moment the finance manager from AutoNation Honda Ms Jena...MY ANGEL ON EARTH gave me a call to find out if I was still in the market. I was so upset and discouraged that I told her what was going on and she told me. I think I can possibly get you in the car. she called me back and told me that my salesman will be with me to you know set up an appointment to come in and see a car and of course I didn't want to waste another 3 hours somewhere being denied and getting discouraged but the sincerity in her voice made me feel like maybe they're going to help me I set up an appointment with Walter and Walter was very very very helpful he's freaking amazing and I really want to use another word but he is awesome he called me to tell me that hey you're approved bring your down payment bring your paperwork and we got you and I did not believe it I did not believe that y'all I just knew that it was another salesman trying to get me to come in because they get paid for you to show up and I was over it BUT!! something said these people seem serious. so today I went and if it wasn't for Miss Jena!! I would have never come to AutoNation I have I would have been somewhere at drive time getting a car that wasn't even worth the amount that I was going to pay for it not only was I going for used car but got me in a 2020 yall! 2020!HONDA CIVIC. I'm not going to give you guys all the specifics but do understand when everyone else denied me WALTER JENA AND CARLOS got me approved and I'm not being paid to tell this I'm sitting at home I should be sleep right now because I have to be to work in the morning so forgive the grammatical errors because I am doing speech to text but I have to say if it wasn't for Jenna I would have never came down to AutoNation if it wasn't for Walter I would have never had this smooth experience that I had today he got me and what I wanted for the money that I had and the process was easy not rushed and he was genuine and Carlos my finance manager he did the thing he didn't make me feel pressured showed me my packages what I could get what it would cost me an insured me that what I needed was what I needed so I tell you guys if you are shopping for a vehicle AutoNation Honda is your place to go if you've been searching anywhere else just STOP!!!!!!! don't do anything do your application here go check out your car go holler at Walter you know if you speak to miss Jena tell her Miss Duncan said she is amazing Carlos going to take care of y'all AutoNation is it.. IM TOOOO LIT LOL

Took my CRV to have the power steering flushed after having a new line put on. Had air in the line and made the pump loud. While there I had a oil changed and tire rotation and alighment. Right of price was quoted wrong for tire rotation. So I said "ok" . I was there almost 3 hours and when they came to get me the service person tells me I need a new power steering pump, new drive belt and front seal. At a WHOOPING $1150 ! I explained I didn't have that kind of money after just handing them $337! Yep ! that's right $337 for those 3 simple things! So I get ot my vehicle and first find grease all over the passenger headlight. Again upset by the problem I told myself just wait to I get home. When I started the car the wining was actually louder than when I took it in and the steering wheel just doesn't seem to be in the right position. ( I did ask they to set the steering wheel balanced straight when the alignment was done. I drove up and down the road a few time in terrible traffic trying o make sure the alignment was right. the steering wheel seems strange as if when you turn it its in the wrong place. I made it home (70 miles one way in the heavy traffic and just wanted to rest with the thoughts of that HUGE expenses over my head and the big amount I just paid ( ALWAYS EXPENSIVE) . The next morning I was awoken by the dealership calling wanting to know to set up an appointment to have the work done! I was pissed off to say the least. Especially after telling the service person I could not afford the work. Fast forward 4 days and I had driven the car very little in fear of the unit getting worse or going out. Something told me to check the work that had been done (like a dummy I didn't think to do so on the day I left because of the traffic and rain). First I had wipe the grease off the head light and fender. Then when opening the hood there was clean up to be done in the front where they worked. I opened the power steering unit to find little to nothing in it! They didn't fill the unit after bleeding!!! . The other fluids hadn't been checked and the oil was not completely up to the right area. I checked the tires and EVERYONE had a different pressure!, all at or below 28 pounds! It was late that day I had to wait to call the dealership the next morning. It took forever to get someone on the phone. When I did and I told them of the problems . It was like they missed the complete conversation. She kept saying she'd have to talk to the mechanic . I told her I filled the unit with fluids and till this day almost two weeks the unit has been full as she said it must have had a leak. She wanted me to drive all the way back so the mechanic could look at it. There was NEVER a "WE"RE SORRY" or "HOW CAN WE MAKE THIS RIGHT". She never even went into the other problems at all! I've had a few things repaired or replaced there and of course they are very expensive but done right and it is a dealer so you would think they would go out of their way to make sure the customer was happy and the job done right. So now I'm having o look for a place to NOW have a new power steering unit installed which is VERY HARD to find. Since HONDA"S have to have everything done a certain way such as power flushing at $230 or more on all things needing flushed. I'm not happy by any means! Seems it like this EVERYWHERE you go now. Do yourself a favor and check , I mean REALLY check out the places you intend to take your vehicle to. Check Yelp and others!

Kennelkeeper, West Georgia Jan 27, 2020

Good Morning, I would not recommend Honda Thorton to anyone who owns a Chevrolet. My tires were rotated but not reset. I asked Ms. Amber to be sure they were reset so that my onstar app and monitor in the dash would read accurately. The PSI didn?t read all 35. So, I went back for it to be done, but they put air in my tires and it was still off. I left to drive a little to allow changes to level out, but they didn?t...35, 37, 36;34. ? I returned again. This time I asked were the sensors reset. I was told yes and sent back to the techs again. Techs were not welcoming at all!! They attempted to put more air and reset on steering wheel. I advised that I needed the sensors reset and explained how. They told me that wasn?t so. Therefore, I asked for the lead tech. Ryan went to get him and three of them returned. All of them seemingly treated me as if it was impossible and I didn?t know what I was talking about. I explained that they needed to use the handheld computerized device to individually reset each tire and then match PSI to 35 for each tire. They told me that wasn?t so and if so they couldn?t do it! I returned to Amber to inform her that I purchased a protection that isn?t worth it for my vehicle! The life of my tires is very important!! If they?re not cared for properly they will wear faster!! She went to get the lead tech and he said the exact same thing as the other techs. However, in the midst of that conversation, another advisor next to Amber informed the tech, Amber and I of exactly what I needed and requested!! He informed that Honda didn?t have the appropriate tools to do so for my vehicle and advised me to go over to John Thorton to have it completed. Moreover, I didn?t pay for a protection plan with John Thorton. I paid for it with Autonation. Autonation is not honoring a protection plan that services all the options included for all vehicles they sale, which is meaningless for my vehicle in that perspective. SAFETY IS MY FAMILY?S FIRST PRIORITY!! Therefore, again, I would not recommend to friends, relatives nor co-workers.

Service Department (Advisor AMY WINDLEY) AutoNation Honda Thornton Road Lithia Springs GA. Unnecessary and Unacceptable experience from this service advisor. Service reason is the LED light needs replacing on the driver side and prior to this, the passenger side needed replacing about 4 or 5 months ago, in which I had a similar experience with the same service advisor. The part is still covered under 36/3year warranty. I called Monday of this week to schedule the appointment for the replacement. Since the prior service request had difficulty, I made a second phone call to Honda Service in which I spoke with Amy. I advised that because of the previous experience with the part not being available and having to make two trips to the dealership and have two days of my weekend disrupted. I wanted to make sure that this was not the same experience.I had an 8am appt today,arrived promptly at 7:55. I thought I had two issues but only had one. Amy assisted me with the remote starter, and it was user error(me). I thanked her for the assistance and now I'm headed to the waiting room to wait for my car only to be advised that the same part I called about on Monday and I was assured repeatedly the part was in stock, was now NOT in stock. Needless to say I was taken aback because I did all that I could to ensure that this was not a repeated experience. Amy, was nonchalant and inauthentic with her apology as I reminded her of Monday's phone call, when I felt like I was being rushed off the phone when I conveyed that I work until midnight and it's a big deal for me to get up drive 40 miles round trip for the part not to be available. Which means it's going to be 80 miles round trip and impeding on two days of my weekend,since I have to go back tomorrow. I feel as though it was a Blatant Disregard on my attempt to make sure the part was available.This experience was unnecessary and disconcerting. I would think that if an appt is made in advance the part associated with the appt should be taken out of inventory so a situation like this wouldn't happen. Also, since this is my second experience, I can't help but to wonder was I pushed to the side because I'm not technically a paying customer since it's still under warranty? I truly hope not, I have own three Honda's, so I believe in the product. What I don't believe in, is the poor service that was rendered from this service advisor Amy Windley. The shop had a Service Manager, I believe his name was Michael he had the wow factor, the positive language and a calming presence. Unlike Amy, which her only quest is to ensure you score her 100 on the survey you receive after a service appointment. He was the only reason why I decided to come back for service. I was told he was no longer working there. Needless to say I will not be back to this dealership after my light is replaced. It's going to be inconvenient to travel further out, but I refused to receive horrible service when spending my money. Vonlonda Wilson

My name is Leonard Roberts, I am 66 years old on Social Security,I took my 2007 Honda Pilot to Auto Nations Honda on Thornton Rd. on July,24, My car was running great however my check engine light would flash intermittently so I wanted it fixed because I have a 19 year old son who drives the car! As a teaching tool, I took my son with me to encourage him to use the dealership when he had car problems! I explained to the service person that I wanted everything on the engine repaired because I was going to Florida on vacation! The service person called and said that it will cost $1310.00 to get everything right so I agreed to that amount as long as everything was okay! On the next day. the 25th I was told to pick up my car! When I was presented the paperwork it had a note on it saying that the cam shafts looked worn and might cause problems in the future! I asked the service person why she didn't call and inform me of this as I had requested that everything be repaired and she told me that they had determined that that might be something I want to get done in the future! My reply was " it seems like you would have done that when you were already working inside of the engine but she stated that their equipment didn't indicate that so they just did a valve adjustment among other things! Thereafter, she just take the car now because you have a 12 month or 12,000 mile warranty this was on Thursday! Saturday morning two days later I got on the highway to go to Florida on vacation, unfortunately, the engine blew up before I got out of the city limits! It cost me 92 dollars to have the car taken back to the. Auto Nations service dept.where I left it! Thereafter, five days went by and I had heard nothing from them so I decided to call them! Shockingly, I was told that I needed a new engine and it would cost me $ 5,500.00 and that their work had nothing to do with my problem! I went in to speak to the service manager who refused to come out and talk with me! He relayed a message to the service person over the phone that he would deduct half of the $1300.00 I had already paid from the $5,500.00 engine charge! I called him several times but he still wouldn't answer the phone or come out to speak with me! Thereafter I called the president/dealership manager and he didn't answer my calls either! To this day neither one of them have called me back! In conclusion, my son now hates all dealerships, my car is still there until I can afford to move it, and Auto Nations just sits there waiting for their problem to go away as they just want me to get my car and go away! I am very sad and confused because I was treated so nice when I went in then I was treated like a criminal when their service failed me! Respectfully, old man without a car!

This was the 4th Honda that I have purchased, my first being from this store as the others were from dealerships in Florida and I was absolutely not impressed with the store. My husband and I roamed the lot for quite a bit, were never greeted until we got into the store whereas I don't believe the salesman ever told me his name through introduction even though this purchase was for me. We got the usual runaround with the pricing of the new vehicle and then had issues negotiating the pricing of my trade in which was low in comparison to what was offered on KBB. Although I wasn't in any rush to purchase a new vehicle, the salesman didn't appear to be very informed on the Honda Pilot Elite which was what I was interested in. Thankfully I had done my research and was familiar with the car (and brand since I have always gotten Honda vehicles in the past) so it really didn't take much effort from the salesman to actually sell the car. He didn't seem to know much about the car let alone the features so I definitely couldn't have relied on him if I hadn't known already. Once my husband and I were cleaning out my previous car to transfer my items to the new car, I was disgusted by how the service department neglected to actually clean the interior and when approached about the topic, I was met with hostility and an attitude and a statement of "that wasn't my job" by the gentleman who I assume was from the service department. I proceeded to tell him that I had expected the watermarks on the console in addition to minor dirt spots on the cars interior to be wiped down if not detailed and he walked away making the salesman eventually do it. This is a brand new, top of the line Elite edition that I just spent a lot of money on so I don't think I was asking for much but a little extra attention to detail would have been nice. The customer service, specifically the situation at the end of the sale sealed the deal for me and I will NOT return to this dealership nor recommend it to anyone as a result. I have never received this type of careless attitude and lack of concern for the customer satisfaction through previous sales of a vehicle!

My experience started well but ended poorly. I negotiated the price by email and over the phone a week before I arrived at the dealership. Their price was much better than that of my local dealer so it was worth my time to drive from North Alabama to the Atlanta area to buy my car. When I arrived my sales representative met me and we went outside to look at the car. The sun was shining and the car looked great! She showed me some of the features and how to pair my phone. Then we went back inside and were done with the paperwork she was responsible for in about ten minutes. She then brought over the finance office representative. The business office representative introduced himself and said I should wait in the lobby for him to do the paperwork for my signature. An hour passes and I'm still waiting in the lobby. I speak to my sales rep and she goes to check on the paperwork. She comes back and says I should continue to wait in the lobby, that it will be just a few minutes. 20 more minutes pass and I'm still waiting so I speak to the sales rep. This time the finance office rep comes out and takes me to his office where he fumbles around for another 20 minutes. It turns out all the "paperwork," including signatures, is done on the computer. He is on his fourth day on the job and the close-the-deal process is sufficiently complicated that extensive training is required. And he needs much more training for the necessary skills. Finally he gets his supervisor to coach him through the process of getting my signatures on the laptop. The old way of doing it on paper was much faster, back in the day. Over two hours to buy a car when the deal was already negotiated! That is not the end of the saga. While we were closing the deal, the sales rep took the car back to "detailing." When they (FINALLY!!) gave me the keys, We went out again, walked around the car and I was on my way back to North Alabama. I am very happy with how the car drives and all the features of the car. But . . . When I got home I put the car in the garage and raised the hood to look at that sweet turbocharged engine. That's when I noticed the scratch. Under the overcast skies I couldn't what was readily apparent under my florescent trouble light. There was a large scratch on the right front fender. A small part of the scratch went all the way through the paint. I called the dealership on Monday (after buying the car on Saturday) and, an interesting thing; nobody would return my calls! So I'm on my own. I was able to repair the scratch myself with touch-up paint and polishing compound. But that should not have been necessary. Would I recommend this dealership? NO!

By far the worst service department I have ever been to. Sadly this is the nearest Honda dealership to me even though it is almost an hour from my house. Because of the distance I have been stuck using them for my factory servicing. I have brought my odyssey there three times and had horrible experiences each time, but will only speak to the worst two. Experience 1: The first time I came in I needed to have some recall work done and while I was there wanted to go ahead and have the brakes done. I made an appointment for Saturday morning at 7 am, was there ten minutes early, and gave them the car. I went to the waiting room to wait as I was told it would not be too long of a wait. I got restless and walked around, behind the building I found my car sitting there, not being worked on. This was 45 minutes after I had gotten there. When I confronted the service person about this they told me that the service techs don't even get there until 8 am. So I was there an hour longer than I needed to be. On top of all this the staff was not apologetic and was a bit rude when I spoke with them about this policy of setting appointments when the techs are not even there. Experience 2: The last time I had my car serviced there they replaced the power steering pump. It was not that long ago and it was making noises and not doing its job well so I called in to ask if it would still be covered under a warranty due to how long it had been. The woman I spoke with said that if it was hard to steer that it would be covered under a campaign and that I should bring it in. I made an appointment for the next morning at 7 am. While I was on the phone I mentioned that there were a couple recalls that I had gotten letters about that also needed to be taken care of. I arrived at 7 the next morning and waited almost 20 minutes before a service person helped me check in my car. As he was checking me in I noticed that the only work listed was the power steering, not the 2 recalls. When I mentioned that the service adviser wrote it all up and said "your dropping it off right?" I said no and he was surprised and told me that the two recalls take most of the day to fix. Because of this I said never mind to the recalls and just take care of the power steering. After 3 hours of waiting I realized that the service tech was performing the work I specially said not to. I was there for 4 hours waiting and no one seemed to care. When I was looking for someone to actually listen to my complaints a sales manager tried to help me but was not helpful. LONG STORY SHORT, THEY DON'T LISTEN, TAKE FAR TOO LONG TO HELP YOU, AND DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU OR YOUR TIME. AVOID THEM AT ALL COSTS!

My name is Quadre jones I recently bought a car from Honda Auto Nation Thornton Road 10 months ago great buying experience but about 4 days after I purchase my 08 dodge Durango I had a problem with the engine come to find out it was a misfired in cycliner 6 so if course I took it back I was told the problem was fixed ok that's fine car running better I'm happy again so a month goes by same problem happen so i take it back they fix it again this happen for 10 months so at this point im not happy so I bring the car back to Mr Thomas Howell in service he tell me hold let me get you a rental going because he already knew the problem with my truck so he comes back and tell me his manger Lynn Freeman declined my rental so I was confused and I had to be to wrk so I left called the next day Mr. Howell said the same thing to me his manager not approving it so I called corporate and left a voice message because no one answered within 30 minutes I got a call back from honda and they put me in a rental so I been in this rental for 30 days with no call from Honda Thornton Road I called once a week for those 30 days still talked to Mr. Howell he said he still hasn't heard anything so Mr Howell made it his responsibility to get back with me which he did and I appreciate that but he said he still hasn't heard anything from his manager which is Mr James Lawson so I called service Friday and talked to Mr.Anthony Blount and said he would get back with me so Mr Blount never did I called back Monday he knew who I was and told me he was going to call me right back he was going to talk to his manager and see what needs to be done he never call hours goes bye and still no call from Mr Blount but I received one from a sale associate Ellis to offer me a new car but they wasn't going to pay for my 08 dodge Durango so he said let me talk back to my boss and I never received a call back so I called and was put on a long hold from Mr. Blount so I drove to Honda and went to talk to Mr Blount while talking to Mr Blount he tells me that I have to pay for my car problem which is a reoccurring problem I had since I bought the car so at this point I'm hot because I'm like I'm not paying for that because you guys never fix my car properly you guys did these Band-Aid fixes on my car it's still not fixed so I continued to tell mr. Blunt that I'm paying a car note for something I don't even know if you guys are really fixing so I asked him are you guys going to to pay my car note he says no I said okay so I need to hear something about my car then so he has nothing to say about my car other than they're just not hearing about it from service till Friday 12/16/16 so then he asked Mr Jon king do you want to talk to him so Mr Jon king and I spoke and he said that tomorrow 12/19/16 he going to talk to service and see what needs to be done so far Mr Jon king sounds like he going to deliver. will keep u guys posted on the next steps to let you guys know if you should truly purchase your next car here what I don't understand why didn't the owner of this car lott Lynn Freeman hasn't made it his priority to speak to me about my problems it's no way I should have to speak to 9. Different people before I even had to Google who was in charge of this facility maybe this way I can be heard instead of getting the runaround on The Daily like I said I refuse to pay a car note on something I have no knowledge as to where you guys are fixing it my car. Thanks hope I helped someone will let you guys knw what was done for me.
