Dear All,
You are still alive to read this review! means you haven't visited Capital Honda Meenampakkam for your car service. Thank God, Thank your ancestors or thank even the late Mr.Soichiro Honda founder of the Great Honda automobile. His soul may not rest in peace after appointing such dealers in India.
Honda is such an automobile company who redefined a Motorcycle with their Honda Cub, Taught the world the level of refinement in 4 stroke engines & stands as a bench mark for every other manufacturers in the world.
Why am I writing all this you may wonder?. Because decades of Honda's hard work and thousands of its engineer's efforts are going to dogs by such cheep money minded creeps. Capital Honda Meenampakkam tried a daylight robbery with me by quoting Rs. 50000+ for a simple 1000 rupees relay which failed in my car! Let me explain.
One hot summer day my Honda city A/C stopped cooling. Being an automobile engineer I immediately opened the bonnet and found a faulty relay. I would have replaced it for a mere Rs.1000 if alone its available in market. Thanks to Honda's non retailing policy I had to go to a dealer.
I went to Capital Honda Meenampakkam sharp at 9 AM. Explained the fault technically to service adviser, Floor in charge & Manager. After waiting for an hour they wanted my approval to check and replace the Compressor clutch, Compressor & Cooling coil. If I would have said'Yes" then I would have been billed for Rs.50000+. But I refused as A/C was working fine till yesterday and I know about a Honda.
Then the real show started. The whole mafia gang made me to wait hour after hour till 2 PM. After my repeated requests, Arguments & Shouting they finished the work and gave a bill for Rs.5000. I checked the bill it showed replacement of 3 relays, A/C gas topping up & electrical work. I asked the adviser to explain, he made me to wait for another hour. I lost all my temper and energy as I was sitting without food from the morning.
Adviser finally said all the 3 relays have failed and rodents cut the wire and they repaired it. I challenged him to check the relays for malfunction in front of me. Again he made me to wait for half an hour and sent a young mechanic with 3 of my old relays in hand. The young boy within few seconds pulled out 2 relays and replaced my old relays and showed me the whole system was working fine. Finally they billed me Rs.3000. Those few seconds was really needed for them to rectify my car's fault instead they dragged me for the whole day just to earn money. After coming home I checked the wiring it was intact as factory fitted and no repair was found done. About A/C gas top up? only God knows.
I survived a major operation five years ago and still living only due to honesty and ethics. I am unable to digest and forgive such inhuman act by a Honda dealer who made an age old patient to starve a whole day.
I AM WHOLE HEATEDLY CURSING THE PEOPLE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS, NOT THEM ALONE BUT THEIR WHOLE GENERATIONS TO BITE DUST.
