RE: complaint # [redacted]To Whom it May Concern:My name is [redacted], I am the General Manager at Honda of Joliet.  I really need to know who it was that invited Mr. [redacted] to sue us.  That is regrettable that those words came out of someone's mouth.  Please accept my apology, that...

is not how we do business.  If it was the service advisor, [redacted], then this is one more reason I am glad he is no longer with us!On November 20, 2015 Mr. [redacted] brought his Civic in for "symbol A" maintenance-which includes an oil change, a rattle while coasting over 40 miles per hour (which seemed to be cured by replacing the VTEC valve assembly), a headlight bulb, and a seat belt buckle that was under recall.  At the time there were 173,969 miles on Mr. [redacted]'s car.  We recommended 11 things.  Three were engine related; one was a diagnosis for an unidentified fluid leak, one was a diagnosis for the oil low pressure light being on and another for the check engine light being on. The oil low pressure light indicates the engine is low on oil or the oil pump has failed, both being catastrophically bad conditions for the engine to operate under.  When the oil light illuminates, the engine must be turned off as soon as you can safely pull over to the side of the road, and towed to a repair facility.  For third party verification please see:  http://[redacted].com/low-oil-pressure-warning-light  By this point the engine’s fate was probably already sealed, considering the car was being driven in a low oil condition.Having admittedly been told there was catastrophic engine damage, why did Mr. [redacted] elect to keep "investing" money in the Civic?On December 12, 2015 Mr. [redacted] returned for the seat belt buckle that was ordered, replacement of noisy rocker arms, repair the oil leak, and replace the timing belt.  All repairs that would strongly signal a desire to keep the vehicle.On April 21, 2016, The diagnosis at 180,180 miles, the lower end of the engine is knocking.According to the service manager [redacted], as a gesture of goodwill, [redacted] offered to pay for half of the engine. About a week after, Mr. [redacted] informed [redacted] he would donate the vehicle to charity.  Since then the vehicle has been towed away from Honda of Joliet by Mr. [redacted].  Labor to replace the engine is $2,520.  As of this writing, [redacted] has a used engine with 113,000 miles for $950.Now Mr. [redacted] wants $7000?  [redacted] Private party sale, as of 7/1/16, fair condition, is $2,555.  Trade-in value is $1,489.  Average auction prices are $2,111 with only 157,000 miles.  [redacted] average condition wholesale $1,375 and retail $2925.  I would be willing to honor [redacted]’s initial goodwill offer, which equates to half of $3,470 ($1735).Where is the vehicle now? Was it donatated or sold? If so, what was the financial gain from the transaction?

When Mr. [redacted] originally left us a review on [redacted] with similar allegations, I asked if I could inspect the vehicle with our Service Manager.  Mr. [redacted] declined.If acceptable, I would like to have a third party, independent, forensic technician view the vehicle at my expense.If our...

technician is trying to sell unnecessary/unneeded work, he will be terminated immediately.  We do not condone the behavior described in Mr. [redacted] allegations.  But at the same time, we need to verify what was brought to our attention, before we do something so drastic that will have a crushing impact on the technician and his family. In Mr. [redacted] review, he also said we did a shoddy job detailing his vehicle, which I offered to have redone.  That offer is still open. The best way to reach me is my cell phone, 630-688-4771. Sincerely, [redacted]Honda of Joliet

Dear Mr. [redacted], I will do whatever it takes to rectify your concern.  Please call me on my personal cell 630-[redacted] or email me at r[redacted]@hondaofjoliet.com Sincerely, [redacted]
