Honda Motor
reviews and complaints

Date: 14 Jan 2024

The incident happened in Sep 2023 (4 months ago)

Location: Malaysia

We approached the service center and there was no response till I re-attempt Dec 2024 (after 3 months) I am surprised that on the Honda Malaysia website, there is no area for the customer to file a complaint besides the feedback form.

I have filed my complaints via the feedback form, a total of 3 complaints within 4 weeks. Yet Honda Malaysia has not responded, the service center informed us that Honda Malaysia is not responsible for the damage.

We are seeking Honda Malaysia's official response after several attempts, with our facts on hand, we submit it to Honda Japan for more attention.

Dear Sir,

My car is Honda FRV type MJH1506V4458, since year 2008.

It is running well since this time. The mechanical part of the Neman steering wheel locking system has been defectuous and we had to change it with original Honda spare parts.

Since November 7th 2023, I have left my Honda car by Toyota-Honda dealer's mechanical workshop in Noumea, New-Caledonia and they do not manage to program the new key for the Neman. They said to me, that they have to contact Honda Japan for further information.

I cannot use my car because of this Neman problem since 1 and half month and I have no recent information from Honda dealer, about what could be the solution.

Could you please help for this ?

My name is Benoit Lhote and e-mail address : eb.[protected]@gmail.com.

I had complaints about my break issue 4 times and each time I complain Honda UsJ Malaysia service centre will skim my break disc without changing break pad. The form where I sign before collecting car indicates that’s my break pad has 9mm and recommended to change if 4mm or below. Now my break disc is spoiled and they refused to claim via warranty. The disc was damaged completely by reluctant of Honda USJ Malaysia.

A critical parts order has not been activated as suggested by Honda customer service after an order for parking brake cable replacements was cancelled due to lack of availability.

My email request went to the local dealership this week and the request is being ignored.

My Honda Pilot cannot pass inspection due to this lack of replacement parts and is rendered useless.

My cancelled order was placed online number [protected] from Bedard Bothers Honda and I have not heard back from the their parts dept regarding the request to place this order on "critcal status".

I filed a claim for my AC compressor because I received a letter in the mail that it was under warranty and I would be eligible for an reimbursement.

I paid over $1800 in fees and finance charges when I originally paid for my repairs.

Now I am only getting reimbursed $1091 and when I called the [protected] a lady named Jessica was super rude and condescending.

Very bad customer service experience.

Bought Honda Civic. So many defects. One after another. Long waiting time to claim warranty.

First was the dashboard defects. Took ling time to claim and fixed.

Now USB defects due to Radio failure. Replaced and drove the car back. Then discovered no connection to radio station. Was requested to drive back the car to service center for checking.

Gear rack also defective. Found out it's a defect for quite many Honda cars. Was told no stock and waiting period up to Jan 24 and beyond. Was advised not to drove far for safety reasons?!

Been using various Honda cars for years and this is the first time I have experienced the low quality Honda Civic RS. This will be my last Honda car.

The 2018 Honda Odyssey has a design flaugh. The control module for the back hatch is not sealed well and allows condensate to bulid upinside and short it out.

This module should be redesigned to avoid this problem.

This problem is common with this model. The module is hard to get because of the numerous failures.

Jeff Wyler Honda in Louisville, Kentucky charged me $2,600.00 and did not fix the problem.

My Brother-In-Law replaced the module in 15 minutes.

I have dsent many emails to honda in california , i cant even get them to call back and when they do there are not very nice.

this has really dissaponited me to no end its not right and honda ik doesnt treat customers like this i appreciate anything you can do for a retired honda advicate

I just seen your carbon free by 2050 commercial.

I will NEVER buy a HONDA EVER!

This Climate Change BS has got to stop!

You cannot make a battery operated vehicle at this time that endure being stranded a snow locked traffic for hours and until you can, Pushing it on the public is severely annoying!

And because of it. This man and many, many others will NEVER BUY!

You are going to go backrupt.

I had a civic 1.6 diesel 120 hp. and for 10 years I had no problems.

now i bought crv 2018 1.6 diesel auto.

and suddenly my air throttle valve broke, they told me that it costs 3000 euros to make a new one. I opened it and I was surprised, it had plastic gears, and if I buy a new one in 5 years it will break again. This is Honda's fault, and they should recall this particular one

spare parts.

PNP 1101, service at Kah Motor,88, Jln Semabuk, Malacca, Malaysia. Complained about brake pedal noise on 30/3/22, 5/9/22,7/2/23 during servicing of my car but not resolved. My last service was on 9/9/23 and l Complained again on brake pedal noise. I was told the problem is due to electric brake set & master cylinder set, but my warranty has expired on 7/8/23! Why did they replace the parts for me during the warranty period since the brake problem had been highlighted since 30//3/22! I appealed to Honda customer service but was told that my brake problem started after my warranty period! This is ridiculous!

I would like to make a complaint. My Honda bought in Japan and shipped to Cayman Islands. Had its air bag recalled.

Since July 26, 2023 I have had no remedy from the Honda dealer, Car City.

I cannot renew my car license and this vehicle is used as a delivery for business. My business is at a loss with no deliveries from July 26, 2023.

Dealer has no remedy except to wait for the replacement part. I cannot renew my car license without it.

Why are recalls being enforced by this dealer if they do not have parts for indefinate periods of time. no loaners or refunds. To date no replacement part has been install or remedy given.

Please investigate and advise.

The TSB above explains that the issue is covered when the car is under 80,000 or 8 years. Our car is a 2016, so under 8 years and it was under 80,000 miles when I made the appointment. I called and scheduled an appointment with Roush Honda in Westerville Ohio on 8/28/23. They did not have any earlier appointments, and so they put me on the schedule for 9/2/23.

Now they won't cover the issue under warranty because my car has 80,133 miles. This is absolutely ridiculous. I've driven Honda's my whole life. I've had 2 Civics, a Prelude, and HR-V, and now the Pilot. Can they show some common decency and cover this, even I'm over by 133 miles when I was under 80,000 when I made the appointment?

Dear Sir/Madam

i have bought an HRV from the official dealer of HONDA here in Cyprus in June 2019. (DEMSTAR automotive). Now the dealer is GALATARIOTIS. i took it there and they said probably the decision will be against me.

Anyway, my car paint started to peel for no particular reason and i cannot accept that a bird poop did the damage as they have told me. My family owned several hondas since 1989, civic 1989, accord 198-, integra 1996, accord 2004, crv 2009, and none of them had such problem from a bird poop.

so what i will have to take precautions for all the birds they are flying in the sky? isn't the paint suppose to be durable for this stuff? older cars are left with bird poops for months and the paint remains intact. the color of my car is white pearl and under the paint the sheet metal is visible. There is no other layer of paint beneath it.

my car most of the day time is in a basement parking because of my work.

i take good care of it
