Honda Motor review: Starting problem 73

I have a 2005 Oddessey that has paint chipping all over the vehicle. Properly maintained vehicle, no reason for chipping. It is all over the car.

I have purchased pleasure in 2011. From last one year the self start is not working and even kick start fails many time. Every time when I take it to agency they say one problem or the other and charge huge amount. I am fed up and do not know what to do? Kindly reply

I just bought Hero Pleasure two days back and it has started giving starting problem. Sometime engine stopped when i stop racing. I am very disappoint with Hero motor corp even after the price is higher then Activa I, the quality is very degraded. Wake up Hero Motor corp...Don't try to cheat Indian customer else they will leave you...

Hello
I have purchased hero pleasure 2012 June, since I brought the scooter everyday facing same starting problem every time I need to use choke or else it never start ..with choke on position it takes me 10 to15 kick.. After one year of purchase I changed the battery.. But problem remain the same ..many times I told the problem with hero service center..they are not able to rectify it and giving diff stories every time ..for ladies kick staring is very difficult I do t know why company is not working on it.. It's pathetic

I bought Hero Honda Pleasure in 2010... Now it is showing same NAKHARA while starting. I wish I could reach out to the Company manufacturer.

Hi,

By mistaken I also bought Hero -pleasure on April, 2013,
Rightly mentioned in all the above comments .. ...Pleasure has starting problem with both battery & Kick . It does not start even if you kick lot of times ...

I wish I had checked this site before buying Hero Pleasure. I bought my bike on 27th Oct 2013. It started giving me starting problem in 3 weeks time from purchase.. the mechanic changed the battery and said there was some issues with battery. The bike again stopped working on 12th December and the first servicing was done on 13th Dec. The bike stopped working on 15th Dec 2013.
It is very unreliable.
Is there any way I can get my money back so that I can buy a TVS or Honda bike..
It is not even 2 months since i bought this bike.

Regards,
Shubhra

Pl update

hi
i have buy a hero pleasure jan 2013. it has not completed 1yr it giving lots of problem. specially starting and stop in middle of road and dont get start after lots of slf or kick start.
it giving very bad expericen to me and my mom and sis because it is for ladies and if it stop on road far away from home or garage it too diffficult for them very bad scoooter hero pleasure
i m sad about this.

I had purchased this bike on 25th february 2012, which is just in a worst condition.
and moreover our great showroom people are so confident that their company bike cant be like this.there is hell lot off starting problem daily in this bike. where more than thinking about other problems in life, will have to think that "how will I start my bike " seriously how disgusting.
paying so much of amount for a new bike. It just works like one 3rd graded bike.
just fed up of this bike.
my biggest mistake was to buy this bike.
anyway friends pls dnt ever choose to buy this bike even if this is the last bike available in this world.
and thanks to their great marketing and servicing of the bike.

I loved my 2004 Honda Accord V6 until 2 weeks ago when the transmission went out. We have had our car serviced only at the dealership where it was purchased new. The dealer quote us over $5300 to replace the transmission. Honda has recalled this transmission in over 1 million vehicles but told us our vehicle is not included. The offered no assistance in repairing their faulty transmission, instead of charging a reasonable rate to repair the problem, they are charging an outrageous price for their mistake.
Honda - you just lost a customer for life. If you would have charged $1500 for the repair, I would have bought a new Honda Accord.

My Hero Honda Pleasure which is purchased on 15 Nov.2011 got a severe starting problem and I am very sure that there will be a great difficulty for ladies to get it started.Due to this issue I was forced to buy a new battery for the vehicle.This is not at all expected from great Hero honda like company...Now Hero...

I have bought my Pleasure on 17th Feb 2012. with all my wish I got this and love it also. for past one year it ran well and smooth. however it started showing problem with self start. being a girl is difficult to start with kick. I had last service, and they said they will change the battery in next service. don't know how much it is going to cost. after reading all comment above I feel company need to work on battery as every comment the common prob is self /kick start. if possible please give us alternative, as it competition era if this type of issue persist people will choose the better one. Pleasure is good looking and girlish. Hope some one can resolve the issue for all.

i hv purchased a heronhonda pleasure on 21 sept 2012 . it was having a self start problem...what is this yr i m a handicap what can i do...

I have purchased a hero honda pleasure on 7/5/2010. I have been giving my rider to authorized dealers(SA Motors Kazhakootam Kerala) only. Two days back I have given my bike as it was having a self start problem and mileage was very less. On giving the bike for service, I asked the service people to set the mileage & charge the battery. From the next day onwards again the condition of the bike has become very bad. It is not taking the kick at any cost. I complained again and they came an repaired the next day it is again the same situation. I am fed up.

I too have buyed pleasure...YOU will feel pleasure by kicking it daily...thats the reason the name is hero honda PLEASURE...hope so u all have understood...Nothing can be perfect in every vehicle...but company has to know how to solve problems...What work do they have other than reading a vehicle before leaving it in market...Nisha

pleasuer starting problems are the worst case senario so i would request company to look into the matter of self starting and plz solve our issues.reagarding self starting sometimes its so annoying the people r just looking at u and u r simply kick startiing ur self staring bike for nearly 10 mins...i think the exide automatically recargable battery are the problem so the company should go for amaron self rechargeble batteries which i blive woulde solve the issue..coz exide battery self rechargable batteries are really not competataive...with reagrds from kunal sonawane ...kkudosangel@gmail.com

hey my self start is not working but the pleasure is starting by one kick star but the battery is also good coz horn and lights are lighten so what to do to for starting the pleasure by self start?

Yes.. Rightly mentioned in all the above comments .. Pleasure has starting problem. It doesn start with battery nor with Kick .. In fact it doesn start even if you kick hell lot of times . My neighbour asked me to tilt the vehicle, on the choke and then kick.. it works .. but this is a bad bad bad option .. A girl cant do all these circus ...
Please rectify this problem.

I am fully agree with above complaints because last week i also purchased new hero honda pleasue, it is not push button start nor kick start it is taking so much time for starting & finally it start by push button not by kick, & this is made for girls so think how much big this problem.

I hope after so many complaints for starting trouble hero honda technical team may do something, because it is the matter of zero customer satisfaction for a leading auto player.

I sincerely requesting to hero honda top management, looks about customer satisfaction & technical aspects.

please do the needful at earliest.

friends hirohonda pleasure this model has specific problem in mounting of pinion gear, which is mounted at longer distance from the flywheel. so, thrust acting on pinion gear is heigher than acpected. so due to that unaxpected thrust pinion gear teeth get worn out in short period. this is what the actual problem is.

I purchased hero honda pleasure on 19th July, 2008 in Virudhunagar, Tamilnadu. And I have the same starting problem since I purchased it. Self start is not working within 15 days from the date of purchase. We have to start by kick starter. When I took it to service station, Everytime they told different stories. They did not identify the actual problem for 1 year. Actually it has 2 years warrenty as per the owner's manual. They didn't give us the Battery warrenty card. Finally after 1 year they told problem is with battery and it is discharging immediately. Battery has 1 year warrenty only which was not informed to us. We thought everything has 2 years warrenty as per owner's manual. But in service statition, they told batter has only one year warrenty and now it expired so we need to buy new battery and they can't do anything for this. Finally I paid for battery for their mistakes and got warrenty card. The people in Hero Honda never tries to think about the customers. VERY VERY WORST SERVICE.

When my relatives bought vehicle with low cost from other vendors and it is still working properly, I am really frustrated with the HERO HONDA PLEASURE vehicle and the service provided by them.

If anybody has idea to buy this vehichle, think twice before you buy.

i purchased the bike, hero honda pleasure on 28th march 2009, at present the bike is have a critical noise problems in its engine, starting trouble & rear wheel wobbling problems . after purchasing this scooter hardly after one week front shockers were leaky resulting in bumpy/noisy suspension, from the very first at the time of getting the keys of my scooter the handle alignment was wrong . i consulted to the nearby hero honda service cum showroom M/s. samrat motors (satara, maharashtra )..i had shown my scooter at this service station & raised my complaints & submitted my scooter for first servicing . but after giving several complaints by me the problem was not solved, as my scooter is in warranty period, I requested the fellow service engineer about my complaints ( mainly rear wheel wobbling problem )but they denied and refused to replace the failure parts under warranty. at present i am very fed up & I face many problems due to the wobblingof rear wheel with hero honda pleasure and its service maintenance provider. At the service station service engineer had observed the rear wheel wobbling problem & he confirmed & said that the scooter is having the problem with the rear wheel . kindly advice me how my scooter will be cure / repaired and kindly enquire the promblems . This is frustrating beacuse a new bike should not have this type of problem. I am so unstatisfied due to this problem. If your product is facing these kind of several problems then how can a customer be satisfied with your product ?
please do me the concern & you are requested to give me fruitful reply for permanent solution on said problems. I shall be ever grateful to your kind co-operation in this regard.

Hoping & waiting for your kind & reply with permanent solution .

Hi,

I have Purchased Honda Pleasure from Auto Need on Oct 19 2006.I found very poor after sale service.The vehicle is having starting problem, Poor milage and Self starting is a nightmare to use..There is no feedback system and vehicle are not attended properly during service.

I have purchased the vehicle as it looks me more promising with respect to honda activa but it provide me poor customer satisfaction and poor ROI. I have made similar query 6month before also but I got a phone call from your office that meet Mr. Sharma from Auto need he will look into it .But problem remain as it is in my end.

Two days back, the vehicle stopped in the middle of the road while running in a starting mode and it almost took 30-40 kicks to start again.It is really very pathetic.

I believe this time my problem will addressed properly and necessary action will be taken from your end.

Thanks,

What a load of crap! First of all that figure is for an EPA driving cycle, not how you drive.

I have a 2003 Accord and have ALWAYS exceeded the EPA Highway figure. Why? -BECAUSE I KNOW HOW TO DRIVE TO GET HIGHER GAS MILEAGE

My stepson's 2007 CIVIC is another case in point. If his fiancee drives it it gets terrible mileage. He drives it it's fine.
If I drive it it does even better.

Keep your car unloaded, use synthetic oil, keep tire pressures at or up to 2 lbs above sticker recommendation and drive right for a change.

I have never had a problem beating the EPA numbers on anycar I've owned since they started testing them

I have faced the same problem, I have purchased Pleasyre in month of Feb 08 . and still I have to start it with battery only and I am not able to start it with kick.
Showroom persons suggeted me to start bike first time, in the morning, start it with kick, but i am not able to do this.
