The services rendered were fairly priced. It's absurd Honda wanted $1250 for a splash guard. As much as I've enjoyed my Honda, my next car will be a Toyota (years from now, as I expect this H More

We understand you are frustrated, however we do feel it is important to clarify the facts regarding your vehicle. After your timing belt service was completed, the vehicle operated normally for a couple months before you later returned with a noise concern coming from the engine area. At that time, you were advised to bring the vehicle back in for inspection. Unfortunately, the vehicle continued to be driven while the condition worsened. Upon inspection by multiple master technicians, it was determined that the drive belt tensioner failed, which caused the drive belt to slip, shred, and wrap around the crankshaft pulley. This created excessive heat that damaged part of the timing belt cover. In addition, the alternator overheated and suffered bearing failure. The front protection cap on the alternator also came apart and contacted the belt, contributing further to the belt damage and shredding. These failures were unrelated to the timing belt replacement previously performed. The timing belt service itself did not cause the drive belt tensioner or alternator bearing failure. We reviewed the situation thoroughly with you and explained our findings in detail, but we understand you disagree with the diagnosis. While we respect your opinion, we stand behind the workmanship and diagnosis provided by our technicians. Crista Poynor Service Director
