[john07]

So much for Honda Care !!! my dealer - Lings Honda, Lowestoft have just informed me that my car (deposit paid, reg cert on my desk!!) will not now be here as planned either for yesterday or today!!!! Lings gave me a date and up to now I thought the car was with them, they don't know where it is and Honda can't tell them either ?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
What the Hell is going on with Honda UK??
Are we being conned by both Honda and the Dealers, who bul....t us into paying a deposit with a date (subject to 2 days either side)(the original date was moved due to Bank Hol) just so Honda can get a build programme and dealers their sales targets? - when in fact we the customer are just a pawn in their game and we count for nothing??
ALSO - Have had a reply from Honda via email re the door drainage grommetts - they say they do not discuss technical matters, thats for the dealers to resolve!! my 2 local dealers didn't even know the new Civic had these grommetts and reckon they will be a rust trap. One dealer had a brand new Accord in showroom and it did not have these grommetts, but next to it was a 4x4 with them fitted? dealer didn't know of these either. Sending them a letter, copy for Trading Standards - as I can see this item being a problem - rust etc in time.
More letters to Honda Japan - wheres that name/address on this site?
