AVOID AVOID AVOID!! Don't bring your car here unless you want it totally broken. The service department is full of incompetent technicians (that cause more issues than they solve, more on this below) and pushy service advisers that will try and lead you into expensive and needless servicing. After my routine "B" maintenance, they told me my tires were cupping, and that an alignment was needed. As these tires are quite new, and have only around 1000km or so on them, I was quite skeptical. Not to mention cupping tires are typically caused by suspension issues.. but I digress. That night I checked the tires myself, I braved the hoards of evil mosquitoes and jacked up my car, crawled underneath with a flashlight and a coin. I checked every single groove of each of the tires they said were cupped, and low and behold, not a single sign of wear. I checked for feathering, inconsistent wear, etc.. nothing. (I used to work in a tire shop). Chalk one up for the crooks at Honda. Go figure that they had an alignment special on at that time eh?? Less than a week later I'm driving around, and I notice something wrong suddenly as I'm driving: inconsistent power, lag when pressing on the accelerator, and unable to go above 4000RPM. At the next light, my car promptly stalled. Started up with no issues, then at the next intersection, my car stalls as I'm making a turn (subsequently the power steering goes too)and narrowly avoid a catastrophic T-Bone collision that would have surely sent both my passenger and I to the hospital, or the morgue. I arrive at my destination, and promptly investigate WTF is wrong with my car. Upon closer investigation, I find that the technician that serviced my vehicle DID NOT CLIP DOWN THE HOUSING FOR THE AIR BOX. There was a 1" gap running all the way around the perimeter of the housing. So, for the days prior, my car had been sucking raw air past the throttle body and into the intake manifold. Just GREAT. THANKS FOR THAT ALBERTA HONDA! Clipped it back down after removing the dead bugs and debris from the side of the air filter that was supposed to be CLEAN, and reset the ECU, but alas the issues still persisted. Car would consistently stall as the RPM of the engine got lower. Huge delays in throttle response, rough idle, inconsistent power. And the constant stress of what else they could have damaged as a result of their stupidity. This was frustrating to say the least. One, as my car was busted due to an incompetent tech, and two, who knows how many years of life have been knocked off my car from drawing raw air, dirt, dust, and insects into the intake. The next morning I headed to part source to grab a can of MAF cleaner, as my last ditch effort before having to bring my car back to Alberta Honda. I cleaned off the sensor, hooked everything back up, and took it for a test drive. Hooray, I don't have to take it back to Alberta Honda to have them charge me hundreds of dollars to troubleshoot! Cleaning the MAF worked like a charm. These issues were a DIRECT result of a negligent Alberta Honda service technician, and nearly cost myself and my passenger our lives from getting T-boned after we stalled. I will NEVER bring my vehicle here. I will do my best to ensure NO ONE brings their vehicle here. I regret having purchased my vehicle here, and my next vehicle will not be from here. Letters have been drafted and will be sent to Honda Canada. I encourage everyone else to do the same. Pathetic service. Oh, PS. Trying to charge me $130 dollars for a cabin air filter change?! How stupid do you think I am? Can be done for $12 in less then 2 minutes with no tools.. Don't even have to pop the hood. You should be ashamed of yourselves. read more
