I really avoided leaving a review...
I had my 2005 Honda Accord handed down to me from my father. It was perfectly reliable for 4 years. Problem free. In the 5th year. I noticed that it was burning more oil than usual (165K.) By the end of that year it was burning about a liter of oil Bi-weekly. Since it was a reliable car, my wife and I decided to have the Engine rebuilt with Midtown Honda. What a mistake that turned out to be. $ 4055.00 for a new Engine and an Alignment and check the alarm.
When I went to pick up the car after 3 days. I hopped on the HI way, as I drove off I noticed it was hard to control the car. Yea no figure, the Stirring wheel was off a 1/4 off level. I thought to myself “Some Alignment from the experts” I went back right away and told the service girl what happened, her face classic. And also that my hood was completely stained with Motor oil and she said the car was cleaned and waxed. I don’t know what kind of wax they use. It completely looks off color and is...

I thought to myself “Some Alignment from the experts” I went back right away and told the service girl what happened, her face classic. And also that my hood was completely stained with Motor oil and she said the car was cleaned and waxed. I don’t know what kind of wax they use. It completely looks off color and is ruined. Anyone can see the oil stain. Then a week after I noticed my coolant fluid was below the min level. Funny, that I saw the Cap was cracked, not only that but my Cruise Control was no longer working. As I noticed all this on my way to Wasaga. Very disappointing.
I went back to Honda recently to have the Cruise control and coolant cap fixed, they fixed it free of charge, but I also went back for an engine light that was going off, It was the Oxygen sensor that had to be replaced, Funny one of the service guys said it didn’t belong to the Engine, the other service lady said she would ask the Mechanic, he told her the Oxygen Sensor Belonged to the “OLD Engine” so it wasn’t part of the 1 year warranty! $4055.00 wasn’t enough. They needed another 400 for the sensor that went off 5 months later, I also got my breaks done, and some other minor things. After getting my breaks done, a week later my break light goes off, In I go again, draining and a lot of talk. $1980, for the sensor and new breaks. Total $6035.00 in a 6-month period. Very frustrating this could have got me a new car to began with and things weren’t even done proper to Honda standards. Poor service and organization. I’m not sure who's checking these cars when they give back the the key.
And yea I know what your going to say Midtown Honda, : your Sorry for giving me back the Accord with a warped stirring wheel , and stained car hood with oil stains, and a broken coolant cap and my Cruise control no longer working, Not to say the least my Oxygen sensor, and going back for a break problem. I will not recommend Midtown Honda! Not happy with this review at all.
