Which dealer would be willing to fix 3rd gear?

Gimenez · 04-15-2008, 01:09 AM

Well after going in to Coggin and having the service writer tell me that there is no bulletin out for the Civic Si 3rd problem without even bothering to check, I am completely done dealing with these guys. Every time I need something they give me hell and I have to argue to get what I want. I don't want to go through this anymore because I am tired of it.

Which dealership is willing to repair my 3rd gear without giving me hell and actually following the bulletin?

I live by Hunters Creek, so my closest dealership is Coggin, but I could try another.

try Holler... joey works there (solo8thgen) he might be able to help you!!!

Another reason why I regret getting another Honda (but on a good note it does have less problems than my brothers 2006 WRX). If you can find a dealer that will fix it under warranty please let me know and I will make the drive up there (~2 hours) over the summer to get my car fixed.

Space Coast advisor's actually knew what i was talking about without looking up the problem. They said any fix they could do for third would be temporary, and they havent found a solution for the second gear grind. At least they are honest.... I dont have third gear problems but i switched to amsoil.

its funny u mention coggin... i guess coggin up by u is the same, here at my coggin in fort pierce u have to fight for them to do warrantee work, like its your fault that u baught a car soo cheaply made in the factories. ive battled it out about window squeaking(told me it was my window tint), ive been in there multiple times with 3rd gear, the paint, the window visor, and the passenger door handle, everything ive had to fight with them on. such b/s. but with the new 3rd gear service bulletin im gunna drop that on their desk.

Holler is really good about service.....you should go there they fixed my tranny issues and what not. Ron is the guy i usually go to and he is extremely friendly

Coggin is a bunch of *****. I regret buying my car from them. They offered me 3 free oil changes but ill never go back there.

I guess Holler doesn't like Koreans or something because when I went in there 2-3 months ago to get my third gear fixed, they said they couldn't reproduce the problem, and blah, blah, blah. Let's see what they say now that there's a TSB for it...

i have had issues with my car and i got it from Classic, i have a problem, they look at it and start working on it, no problems at all. (for now)

Rick Case Honda...off of Griffin Rd. and I-75. Sure, its further out from you but its the Worlds largest Honda dealer...great customer service and helpful people. They will ask you to bring the car 2 days...1st day so they can check the problem and get the parts ordered and the 2nd day they will install the piece and ur problem will be gone!! If you go ask for ALEX LAGO and tell him Jason sent you
