Winnipeg Honda

March 13, 2015

Much to my dismay my 2005 Honda Civic was smashed and written off two weeks after I finished paying for it. I came into Winnipeg Honda Service Centre to see if it could be salvaged. It could not. I did not walk in that day looking to buy a new car, but I met Gio Rhodes and helped me feel like everything was going to be ok. I was upset about the whole ordeal, I even cried, because it was hard to let go of the old car. Gio gave me a hug, and made me laugh. He asked me lots of questions to see what kind of car would be suitable to my life. Then showed me a few cars, and spent whatever time I needed to process the new information. He showed me a very nice used 2013 Honda Civic Coupe, and helped me every step of the way with my old car. He even brought me a fancy cupcake on my birthday as we waited to see what was happening with the old car. When everything had gone through, Gio helped me set up the Bluetooth with my phone and voice activated call commands even though it appeared the dealership had closed for the day. I'm very happy with my new car, I make excuses to drive it! I actually don't miss the old car at all, this one is much better! I feel like I walked away from the dealership with a new car and a new friend!

Regular maintenance but I dropped in unannounced. Through the queue in 5 minutes. Out the door in less than 40. Courteous and attentive. I love these guys and gals.

First off, after owning a Honda Del Sol since 1994, we figured it was time to get a new car. Ended up buying a Honda Fit 2008.The buying experience was really good. So this review is on the car and Winnipeg Honda`s service department. It has been a good car in the summer but an absolutely horrible car in winter. This car was obviously NOT tested in Canadian winters. Would not start in minus 5 weather, whereas the Del-sol Started in minus 30 without being plugged in. 3 batteries and 1 clutch later, we are now just using this car as a beater and strongly recommending to our friends to never buy a Honda Fit for winter usage. Also you cannot leave your windows down on the highway or the car starts to jitter. Anyway, made an appointment for a recall for Nov 17th. Dropped the car off at 08:00. After waiting 7 minutes for someone to wait on me, they took the car in. (And yet there were were lots of employees that looked at me and said nothing). Said it should be ready in about 2 hours. Thought I would be nice and gave it 3 hours, no one called me yet. So I called just before 1:00 and someone said they would get back to be ASAP. Just called back and was told it hasn't even been looked at yet and I would be transferred over to the guy who took by information this morning. Well it is now 1:11, the phone has been ringing for over 11 minutes and got voice mail. This has totally ruined my afternoon. If I had known it was going to be an all day situation, I would not have minded and been able to do what I had planned for the afternoon by other means. Just tell me. They did not. I had no choice but to go to Honda because of the recall. But all I am getting out of this experience is: I know I will never buy a Honda again (Unless they come out with an anniversary edition of the Del Sol) or a used vehicle from Winnipeg Honda. Just called at 1:30 and the service tech is still out for lunch so with all this modern technology no one else can tell me if my car is ready?! 1:34 tech called back and apparently I was told it would be ready by mid afternoon. That's NOT what I heard. When I was there in the morning I asked him "How long will it take? 2,3,4 hours? And was told around 2 hours. All around bad experience. Okay. Picked up the car around 3:30. Was given the invoice. No extra charges for the recall. But I also had them reprogram a key that we that we had lost some time ago. No problem . They did that and it works. But on the bill was shop supplies and environmental charges. When I asked "What supplies, nuts, bolts etc were used to program a key and how does reprogramming a key warrant environmental fees?", they took it off the bill. I waited until I picked up the car before I posted this. I waited to see if I would get a simple "I apologize for the confusion and I hope this does not deter you from shopping with us again" or something along those lines. But I got nothing. Even if I was in the wrong I still expected something said to keep me coming back.

The level of incompetence a this place is astounding. 3 hours into a 45 minute appointment, I get called over to tell me they screwed up. They mounted the winter tires on the stock rims, rather than the winter rims that we ordered. Now I am waiting another hour! I am starting to remember why I avoided this place and drove to Brandon, when we bought the van!
