Hi folks,
Just got our 2015 Jazz SE home (you’ve been tango’d) and so far very impressed, even after having many Civics and more recently a Gen 2 CR-V Premiere. Lots of other stuff (bikes and cars) still in the cupboard!
Anyway, I have an issue with the service book which is the point of my question. The book has two dealer stamps, one at 9000 miles after about a year from new, then the service we asked for at purchase with 16000 ish miles last week.
This book looks very new and there is nothing written in the ‘Your Car’ section - no reg number, no vin number, no radio code, no PDI stamp - absolutely nothing! The empty dealer copy part is also still there.
I can’t believe that this is just shoddy paperwork by the supplying dealer but more like a previously lost book.
The previous owner died and it took some time to sort out his estate so the book could have been misplaced. All relatively OK, except for the fact that the first service is stamped with the original name of the Honda Dealership, whereas the second, although the same dealership is under their new name.
If this is a replacement, then they still have the old stamp, which is close to fraud or at least deception.
Has anyone else ever had a service book with no information to tie it to a specific vehicle, which in my eyes renders the service history totally invalid? It could refer to absolutely any car.
I realise Honda keep computerised records of all work done, so we should be able to get the required info but if we ever sold the car, the buyer would not want to do that.
Yes, I should have checked but there was that much to do that day, I only checked the service stamps.
Obviously the holiday will now intervene so I can’t get back to them til NewYear.
Regards,
Ian
Footnote: although quite impressed with the 2012 Hybrid on offer, we think this is a better choice for not much more money.
