Where do you guys take your cars to be serviced? I wish I could take my car to Cesar but he is just too far away. I need some fluids changed and some other little things done. I really do not trust Tempe Honda. It seems like they do not work on many S2ks.


Any suggestions?

Where are you located? Unless you are in Tuscon or Flag I'd go to Earnhardt!!

You just missed the tech day. I can understand if you don't want to drive across town.
A lot of people will vouch for a shop in Gilbert that services Honda. Maybe Rick or Clayton will chime in and tell you the name of the facility.

Honda of Gilbert Service Center has done some work on club cars, including full warranty work.

If it's just some simple fluid changes, consider doing them yourself. Easy to do and there is a wealth of knowledge in the club. I'm sure someone would be willing to help you out.

Avondale is a long drive for me too, but when I get the few warranty items I need taken care of I'm bringing it to Cesar. Worth a few extra miles of driving to have everything done right.

If Tukee = Ahwatukee I wouldn't waste your time at any of the East Valley dealerships - I live on your side of town too. Do a search for the horror stories.

You are better off doing it yourself if you won't invest the time to see Earnhardt's - you couldn't mess up your car more than any of the dealerships on this side of town...

Walk, do you go and visit someone in the Pointe South Mountain area every so often? That is the only place I have ever seen a formula red near Ahwatukee. Just wondering if I have seen you before.


Also, thanks for the information everyone. I am doing a search for the horror stories.

I am in Awhtukee everyday and lived there since '99
Can't say there is any place I would take it there!
Rather do it myself....

The only other place near I can think of where they do a decent job, treat you good, and use Honda fluids would be Acura of Tempe. I have been there several times and have had good experiences.

Definitely stay away from Tempe Honda though!!!

Sorry David, that probably is not me. Too many speed bumps/humps in the South Moutain area. I would drive my SUV if I had to go there and unless you saw me on the weekend it definitely wasn't me.

I decided to take my car to Earnhardts. I am going to have the whole car checked over. The thread about your experiences at Earnhardt sold me on driving out there.
