I’m sorry to hear that you are not happy with the vehicle that you purchased. I tried to reach out to you privately but did not get a response. We take great pride in our ability to provide safe, reliable, affordable transportation for our customers. Let me try to address your concern in a way that is easy to understand. When any vehicle is Maryland State Inspected and the parts pass inspection, it would be unusual to replace those parts as they still have valuable life left. It’s nearly impossible to accurately predict how much longer parts may last. Think of it on a scale of 1 to 10. If the requirement to pass inspection is a “6” and the part in question measures an “8” it would be wasteful to replace parts that don’t need to be replaced yet. Contrary to your comment brake pads do not typically “go bad” they “wear” from normal driving. Had we seen any defect or safety issue they would have been replaced. The other factor that makes it’s impossible to predict the brake pad lifespan is driving habits. With highway driving the pads could last years and with city driving, the life would typically be much shorter as there is a lot more stop and go traffic. I can offer a complementary safety inspection so we could verify that this is normal wear and not a defect. If you would like to come to my dealership and discuss this in person, I would be happy to meet with you. Please contact me if you should decide to take me up on that offer. Thank you again for your review and feedback.

Thank you for contacting us and allowing us to present additional facts. (Customer name removed for privacy) brought her vehicle to Ourisman for a routine B1 service which was completed. This was a routine service visit and the work was completed properly and without issue. In the customers own complaint, she acknowledges that 3 days later she began to hear a noise. She then attempts to blame us and say we overlooked the noise. How is that possible to overlook a noise if the noise did not start until 3 days later? How can a dealership overlook something that did not exist when the service work was performed? It’s not possible and we did not make a mistake. Additionally, we did not claim that the customer has to be involved in an accident. Normal wear and tear can cause most any part to fail. An object in the road (road debris), a pot hole, a bump in pavement, etc. could cause something to dislodge. There are many factors that could cause this part to rattle. Our records indicated 876 miles had been driven as well prior to the vehicle being returned. The item that was creating the rattling noise was a heat shield that sits on top of the catalytic converter and has nothing to do with the service we performed. It is approximately 2-3 feet from the oil plug and would not have been touched during an oil change. As for our pricing policy: We use authorized Honda factory parts and we staff Factory trained technicians. I do not know how other repair facilities repair vehicles and I cannot speak about the work they perform. I can say with confidence, that if work is completed here, it’s by a trained professional and it’s covered under warranty.
