Incomplete work, incompetent and dismissive service advisor I had an alignment performed as part of some other work. When delivered, the alignment was off. Way off.

It was delivered at -0.05. Normally this would be obviously highlighted in red on the printout, but the printout was delivered in black and white. I raised the issue to the service advisor who divined that my car "must have a bent strut for the alignment to be that far off." What insight! He could tell from some numbers on paper in the office what his mechanic who was under the car failed to see! Or, maybe the strut is fine, but the alignment wasn't correct? Maybe the mechanic messed up? There were no "before" numbers provided, so that's a failure. Tire pressures weren't set correctly, so that's a failure, and I looked at the eccentric bolt on the rear control arm and there seems to be room to adjust it more in either direction, so it doesn't look maxxed out due to a bent component. It is within the realm of possibilities that a part really is bent, but shouldn't the mechanic say that? Maybe "The rear toe is off because there's a problem with the control arm"? I did pay for an alignment, if it can't be performed it would be nice to know. Isn't that what you pay service departments to do: diagnose and repair? Thanks Mr. Other Guy Service Advisor for treating customers like ignorant fools. You really reinforce the stereotype of the dishonest mechanic. You really ARE the guy I warned my daughter about. More

My name is Susan, and I had my Honda Accord serviced in February/2014. Cory greeted me with a big smile, and promptly recorded my information and quickly estimated the service to be done. My Honda was re February/2014. Cory greeted me with a big smile, and promptly recorded my information and quickly estimated the service to be done. My Honda was ready before the time he had given me to pick up the vehicle. After paying the bill, I waited approximately 10-12 minutes for a gentleman to bring the car around from the garage. I proceeded homeward when I received a call from Cory saying he was unhappy with me having to wait for my vehicle. He asked me to bring the vehicle back to be cleaned and detailed for free! I was pleasantly surprised, and took him up on it. They did a fantastic job, and I was very elated! Kudos to Cory @ Benson Service Department! Please get out of that building before summer hits, they deserve a comfortable place to work. Best regards-Susan More

Since 2007, I have been with Benson Honda. I purchased my son's vehicle there and chose (for whatever reason) to have my wife's 2009 Accord service at the same location. Fifty percent of my service experi my son's vehicle there and chose (for whatever reason) to have my wife's 2009 Accord service at the same location. Fifty percent of my service experiences have been totally unacceptable. My dissatisfaction ranges from poor service from the shuttle driver to excessive repair time ( minor service) with an appointment, to out right poor advisement and absolutely no appreciation for a customers time. After at least four unexpected experiences I have decided to service my vehicle elsewhere! More
My new Honda had a noise and the service department diagnosed the problem immediately. Kent Thompson was my service advisor and he was wonderful. Not only was Kent knowledgeable, but was very caring!

I got my oil changed at Benson regularly because it was close to work. Every visit, they seriously recommended something be replaced.. I am not exaggurating.. it was every visit. and when I had a concern close to work. Every visit, they seriously recommended something be replaced.. I am not exaggurating.. it was every visit. and when I had a concern about a recall problem, they did not answer my e-mail inquiries, or call back when they said they would. Although I loved my Accord, I am happy I got rid of it and bought a Mazda.. just because I am not tempted to go back to Benson for service.. simply because of its convenient location in relation to my office.

We foolishly took our vehicle to Benson Honda when we experienced problems with the ignition on our Honda Pilot. They replaced the ignition cylinder but did not provide new keys as they said they would. experienced problems with the ignition on our Honda Pilot.
