I've been coming here for several years. I've always felt welcomed here and at home. It seems to me that they are honest and interested in doing the most reasonable and reliable service for my vehicles. It's tucked back behind another business and is not the easiest to find. However, don't let that be a deterrent. Once found, it's easy to remember. The service here is friendly, and accommodating. As long as I own a Honda, I will use this business to take great care of my cars. An example , I have a missing part on top of my Element. The guys looked up the replacement cost and due to an expensive part, they said it wasn't necessary if I was alright not having it. It's on top of my car, not in sight and a cosmetic piece). If I ever sell it, I'll visit the idea of replacing it then. I highly recommend them if you own a Honda. read more

Brought my Honda to the shop based on the reviews. I wanted to find a shop I can depend on that is honest, affordable and keep my car running well. I dropped off my car Thursday around 5p. They called me Friday morning with all the issues and started on it that morning and it was done by EOD. I had several items worked on (serpentine belt, powering steering leak etc..). I like that they prioritize what is needed and what can wait. Now my car is running smooth again. Happy customer and love the cute doggy at the shop! read more

Hon-Man Auto Care - Auto Repair Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I can't speak more highly of Hon-man! They have fantastic customer service. Their prices are better than other shops we looked into in the area. They were honorable and honest. Their inspection was thorough. They did not pressure you into getting unecessary work done or try to take advantage of you. read more

I am fairly new in Phoenix and wasn't sure where to go. So of course I looked at Yelp for some help. There were three 5 Star Honda specialist auto care centers and I chose Hon-Man. I never go to Honda dealers. I had my 2014 Honda Accord serviced. I selected the Signature Service for $149. It is an oil change (full synthetic) and checking out the entire car, tire rotation, check/replace air filters, check/replace windshield wipers, plus. Well worth it. There are some added extras that are included if needed which is nice. The area isn't the best but once I got there, it was all good. They have a very nice and comfortable waiting room and for the first time in decades, they offered complimentary drinks and snacks. A small addition that costs little but contributes a lot. Their customer service from everyone was excellent, really nice people (including the wife). The waiting room and front desk area were very clean and organized. The bathroom is small but very clean, unusual for an auto shop. When I was in Roseburg Oregon, I had a great Honda mechanic (Brian's Import Auto). I now have a great Honda mechanic in Phoenix. Thank you very much for your time. Side Note: If you like Indian cuisine, The Dhaba is a very nice Indian restaurant right in front of their shop. read more

I used to take my car to the dealership for oil changes and service, and was never quite sure if they were really recommending services that I absolutely needed. At Hon-Man, I feel that Tait is giving me the truth in what I absolutely need done, and what can wait until later. I first scheduled an appointment with him when to my dismay, my A/C was malfunctioning in the scorched heat of summer. Tait was quick to return my phone call, and was nice enough to squeeze me in to get the problem diagnosed that very day. Since then, I've had some other work and maintenance done on my car (It's 6 years old, so it's no spring chicken!), and each time I feel that Tait will go out of his way to try to get the best possible solution without trying to break the bank. Plus, you gotta like a guy that has a bearded dragon, salt water fish tank, and brings his cute chihuahua mix to work with him. : ) read more

I have been taking my Hondas here for years. Best honest prices with great reliable work. Don't go anywhere else

If you have a Honda, especially beyond warranty, this is the place. No up selling, in fact the opposite. They have serviced my CRV for 2 years. Will soon get my odyssey down from Colorado to see them. Not the best part of town, but make the drive read more

I highly recommend their services. If you want to find the best and the most reliable place to take care of your Honda, please check with them first! They helped me save over 4,000 dollars for my Honda Civic today. Unbelievable! read more

Hon-Man is an incredible shop. Last week I was taking kids to school in a 2012 Odyssey van. It started flashing a check electrical system warning. The alternator was gone. Hon-Man had bookings in two days. But I left a message for Tait the owner who called right back and explained the situation and said he could install a new alternator the same day. I was literally in the dealer parking lot and drove the van to Hon-Man, who did the job same day for half the price of the dealer. They cut me a new key for much less than either a dealer or hardware store. So grateful to Hon-Man for saving the day for us and getting an old van back in service! read more

Hon Man saved the day for my two college kids this week. This was our first visit and we will forever refer and go for all our Honda needs in the Phoenix area. They went the extra mile to be sure their car was safe for the drive home to Tucson. Thank you Hon Man!!! The snacks and drinks were just an added bonus:) read more

HON-MAN Auto has removed my car problem stress. They know what they're doing and they do it well with great service all around . As a female , going to get car work done always sucks because I often feel mechanics are trying to take advantage of my low car knowledge to over charge me. They always explain exactly what's wrong and will even take you to your car and show you sometimes! So whenever they quote me a price it's NEVER excessive and I know why the price is that much. I've had several a/c diagnosis, a/c recharges and more work on older cars I can't remember. Everything they've fixed , I never had issues again. Whenever there's anything wrong I have extreme ease using their website to schedule an appointment. The customer service is PHENOMENAL! They always have a clean waiting area with snacks and drinks. Love love love this place and as long as I have a Honda I'll be coming here . Thank you to all the staff . You guys are all really dope and I appreciate it every visit ! read more

Really great work and I am so grateful that I was referred to them, wouldn't trust my cars to any one else love their service

These guys are the shixxx! In a good way! Definitely recommend their services! Dropped my smoking car off at 8am, got it back by 1pm SAME day! Solved a difficult problem in short time, reasonable price too! Go! They're worth it! read more

Tait and David are phenomenal. They do excellent work and are honest. I actually live in Tucson now and will drive up to Tempe just to get seen by them for major issues. It's so hard to find a mechanic you can trust these days. One of the things I also really appreciate about Tait is that he explains things in a non-patronizing way. As a woman, dealing with patronizing men has almost always been my experience at repair shops. Tait will walk you through any issue, as thorough as you need, and is kind. It doesn't get better than this, folks. This is where you want to repair your vehicles, and a business you want to support. read more

David and his colleagues were very helpful and friendly. Thank you for your amazing service. -Ron Clayton read more

Exceptional Service w/ Integrity and Delight! This is my first time owning a Honda. I'm coming from over a decade of German cars, aka, money and soul-sucking, depreciating, borrow from your future mistakes. I bought a used little red Honda Fit, stick shift of course, whose name is Strawberry, because well, she looks like a strawberry! This was my very first visit to service the Strawberry, and my boss is a former customer of Hon-Man and sent me that way. I was nervous and excited because this was my first time going to a non-dealership place to service my vehicle. I brought in a sticky note of questions I had, and David addressed each and everyone one of them in detail! I wanted to know if he had recommendations on headlamp cleaning, and he did, typed out the contact information for me on my receipt. I also wanted to know what would be needed to replace my bumper, because they sell a pre-painted one on Amazon, and he printed for me the repair sheet and wrote out each of the part numbers for the clips and screws I would need. Seriously, so splendid and much appreciated. When I walked in I quickly introduced myself to David and apologized for being a little late (there was some construction outside) pulled out my sticky note and he explained all the work that would be done on my vehicle. I chose the signature service which includes oil change & filter, top off fluid levels, inflation of the tires, tire rotation (if needed), test drive, choice of oil (synthetic blend, high mileage, or full synthetic) free wiper blades, cabin filters and light bulbs (if needed) and comprehensive inspection, with detailed report provided. I was going to wait for the service and work remotely on my laptop. The waiting area was great, and there was a huge fish tank with those cute clown Nemo looking fish swimming around. Sadly, there was a dog bed, but no dog. I asked about the dog, and David said he might make an appearance later but didn't. I hope I see the Hon-Man dog on my next visit! There was a little desk area to work on in the waiting area which I appreciated and utilized. There were headphones, chargers, and ample outlets in the room. Sofas were comfy, and there were free snacks. FREE SNACKS!! I sat down and connected to the free wifi and started working away, turning around from time to time hoping the dog would show up but didn't, that's ok, next time! The service didn't take long, I was in and out in about 90 minutes, and halfway through my wait, David came to ask about what oil I wanted, I had no idea, balsamic or olive? I asked what his recommendation would be and he explained each one to me, DAVID IS AWESOME. I went back to my laptop and worked some more and within about another twenty minutes or so I felt a tap on my shoulder, because I had headphones in, and my car was ready! I walked to the checkout area, passed the snacks, (FREE SNACKS!), and David thoroughly explained every last morsel of detail and scope of work to me. He wasn't frustrated either with all my questions. I will be back here for the life of my vehicle! Thank you so much for a stellar experience. #TeamDavid #TeamHonda Did I mention the FREE SNACKS? read more

My Old Acura showed Check-engine sign. Took it to a an auto chain where I usually do the oil change. They Quoted High thousands to fix the issue. Declined, and took it to HON-Man. They checked the Car thoroughly, fixed the problem in about 15 min. Finding no major issues, they charged me ZERO $. Have no doubts" They are the Honest HONDA experts. read more

Although I did end up selling my Honda for a new car outside of Honda/Acura, I did want to document my past experiences. I have used Hon-Man for my needs during when my 03' Accord was between 120-157k miles. I have received exceptional service every time and Dave was always helpful in walking me through the issue as well as identifying what the issue was if the car did not start. Alternator, breaks, wiring issues, and gearbox repair were some of the work I've had done and I left feeling good every time. Appreciate you guys! read more

Tait has always helped me with any problems my older Accord has and has never sold me any services I didn't need. Entire staff including their younger tech are extremely friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend HonMan for all your Honda/Acura needs. read more

HONEST! That is the best word I can use to describe HonMan Auto. I have been taking my Hondas to Tait for 20+ years now. The first time I took my 98 Accord in, Tait was fair, honest and explained EVERYTHING and I realized right there that he had my business for life. He is a man of integrity and that is what I noticed right away and appreciate. Over the years they have gone above and beyond helping me out with my family's Hondas. I only buy Hondas, first because I have an honest, outstanding mechanic and secondly because Honda makes great cars. I highly recommend HonMan and Tait. You won't be disappointed. read more

I gotta give it up to the Hon-Man! My AC recently went out and i called them up and they had me bring my Civic in to diagnose it. I already figured what the issue was but I needed a reliable and reputable shop I can trust to check it out for me. Within 20 minutes the diagnostic was complete and gave me an estimate. Being that they were book that week I would have to come back next week which is understandable being their lot looking full. I came back and dropped my car off in the morning and that same day it was ready for me to pick up! Absolutely happy that my AC is now working! The best part about it is that they are completely honest with you Prior to dropping my car off I had a friend at Honda give me an estimate which was far out ridiculous. I already knew this was going to be a pricy repair but considering I got OEM parts, saved me on installation Dealership prices and that the job was done right I feel at ease. Next time I need some work done I'll be back! read more

Hon-Man Auto Care - Thanks HonMan! I appreciate the hard work you guys do. I'll be sure to come back next time I need some work done! - Auto Repair Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

Honest and up-front experts on Hondas. They explain everything, help you understand the priority of repairs to be done, and are prompt in both callbacks and completing service. I take my Element here with confidence and recommend them at every opportunity. Support these folks, they're amazing. read more

Should I look forward to my car needing repair? . . . with Hon-Man, Yes! Should I be so eager to take my car in for routine service? . . . with Hon-Man, Yes! Integrity in business and honesty are cornerstones here and it shows - it also creates a loyal customer base. I knew what to expect, when to expect it and felt comfortable with the advice offered by Hon-Man. Worried about that noise from the engine bay or that whine from the transmission? Pop in and let the Man check it out. You will leave all fixed up, running smoothly and your pocket book will hardly notice. If you need a small service like an oil change or a major overhaul come here. Just check out all the other reviews and you will see why you cannot go wrong by taking your vehicle here - they are all spot on! As long as there is Hon-Man, you probably will never need to buy a new car again! Overall Rating: 5 Stars for Service, Price, Mechanical Work, Appointment Times/Availability, Honesty and Integrity. read more

Hon-Man Auto Care - Service Menu as of November 2015 - Auto Repair Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I received top notch service last week from Hon Man. David provided excellent customer service in going over potential issues both prior to and after completing the work I brought the vehicle in for. At no time was there any upsell or pressure to OK any additional work. I could not have been any more satisfied with Hon Man's service, pricing, honesty and professionalism! Thanks again and I look forward to continued business in the future! read more

Thank you david for your help with my Acura. I have no idea what to do with my car and he was honest and helped me figure out what was needed. A hidden gem in Tempe for acura and Honda owners. read more

They were great. Listened to what I had to say, asked clarifying questions, and as far as I can tell, fixed the problems. And, they didn't try to upsell me... I feel like they are the rare trustworthy garage and I will be going back when I need anything done. I highly recommend! read more

We found Hon-Man three years ago when our only car was going down. They were professional and courteous. They clearly explained the situation with our car and gave us options of what they thought was necessary and what they thought could wait. We have been going here for three years and bought a second Honda (Odyssey) primarily because we trusted this place so much. There are so many other things about this place that are awesome. They have a waiting area that is helpful especially if you have children (which we do: 4!). They are kind and allow the kids to play with the lizard. They have snacks and drinks for patrons. A great customer service experience. From a service standpoint, scheduling is easy. They return phone calls right away. They provide after hours drop off. It's not the easiest place to find but it's worth looking for (it's behind another business off the main street). All in all, give them a shot and I hope that you walk away as committed to them as I am, knowing that they are committed to you! read more

I have finally found a place I can completely trust to treat me fairly and not try to make me feel badly that my car is not brand new! After feeling violated by car dealerships and their sleazy business practice of making even minor problems cost hundreds of dollars, I was shocked when I brought my 2011 Odyssey in to Hon-Man for an oil change, new headlight and to fix it from dying at every stoplight on my way to work and drove away with it better than ever for only $135. Tait and David were AMAZING! Patient beyond belief with all my questions and never tried to push anything else on me outside of what I asked for. They have earned a customer loyal for the lifespan of this car and any other Honda I ever own. I cannot praise them enough. If you own a Honda, they are the best of the best!!! read more

Took my wife's 2004 Acura in for a second option after getting a dealer quote for well north of $1k. David took his time to look at all the complaints, and then determined that the only issue was a leaking power steering pump, and that it could be removed and re-sealed for much less than the dealer quoted. While he had it, I had him replace the main belt and replace the cabin air filter. The pump came out looking better than new, and all traces of the leaking fluid were removed. Top notch service and it didn't take all day either and well under silly dealer pricing. read more

I've written a review for Hon-Man before, but I just have to write another one after my visit today. I went in for a signature service because it had been 8 months since I had last been in, and though I hadn't driven my car a whole lot due to COVID, I thought it was time to change the oil and get a "check up". After I had been there a short while, I was told that I really didn't need an oil change and probably didn't need the other check up either (since the car was running well and I had had no issues since my last time there). I was told that the service technician would be willing to do it if I wanted, but would be also willing to not charge me at all and I could wait four or so more months to bring it in. I chose to wait since it wasn't needed now, but my question is...how many other car service companies would have treated the situation that way? I suggest that most companies would have just changed the oil, did the big inspection, and charged me the fee without letting me know that I probably didn't need the service. I always know that I'm getting honest, competent service when I take my car to Hon Man! They are just the best! read more

I cannot say enough great things about this business...these guys are true professionals!! They know Hondas and their customers through and through! They've taken such good care of my wife's Accord for the last few years. I just got a new Civic last fall, but these guys are my shop of choice when my dealer warranty is finished. read more

Always take my car here for service. No bs, just good service for your Honda. Much better than any of the dealership nonsense. Only gripe is the location is a little difficult to find and GPS doesn't help. Won't take my car anywhere else though. read more

Easily the best auto shop I've ever visited, to the point that I will continue coming here despite having moved to Tucson. They're honest about what needs to be done and when. Exceptionally transparent. Theyre patient in explaining what's wrong, why what's wrong is a problem, symptoms of said problems, and even indulge me when I ask for more details that I usually dont understand anyways because I'm not a car guy. The prices are fair. Staff is professional, and Amy is super cute and chill. If you have an Acura or a Honda, just go here. Easiest decision you'll ever make. Also they have snacks and drinks, wifi, charging cables, etc as if the superb service wasn't enough. read more

Hon-man Auto Care...where have you been all my life? These guys are awesome. If you own a Honda or Accura this is THE place to go for service. If you have a question they will talk to you and explain in a way that you can easily understand. They will not try to sell you services that you don't need. The world needs more honest and integrity mechanics line the crew at Hon-man. Thank you Tait and David, you've earned a customer for life. read more

My AC stopped working in my Honda Fit. I needed it fixed fast. It's hotter than hell here. I submitted my info on their website with some basic info on my repair needs. Tait, the owner, called me to talk to me and get a better idea of what was going on and what I needed. I dropped the car off and told them to do whatever was needed to fix the AC. They called me back and the car was fixed by the end of the day. They were fast, friendly and very reasonably priced. It ended up being a leaking valve on the AC. They also have a cool bearded dragon. When my kids showed interest in it, they got him out of the cage to let my kids see it closer and pet it. That was very cool of them. I also have a Honda CR-V. I'll be bringing both my Fit and the CRV here for repair or service needs from now on. read more

Tait and David are both great at explaining everything and prioritizing the needs of what may be wrong with your older car. We've been taking our Hondas to Hon-Man for several years now and recommend them to everyone. They fixed up this 02 civic to make it safe and trustworthy for my kids. read more

Hon-Man Auto Care - Auto Repair Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I've been taking my car to David for years now and wanted to let those that have a Honda or Acura know that this is the only place you should take your car. My first experience with them was when I needed a lot of work done on my car. I was quoted at other places $1,500 all the way up to $2k. When I brought my car in to Hon-Man the work was $550. I plan on keeping my car for a long time but if I do get another car it will be a Honda just so the Hon-Man can be my mechanic. read more

I live in Gilbert and my neighbor uses Hon-Man for any repairs of his Honda Odyssey and Acura MDX. We have a Pilot that need some overdue maintenance and an RDX that had an emission light issue. They are in Tempe which is a bit of a drive but definitely worth it! I took the RDX in first. They called to let me know that the issue was related to the turbo which was not good news. A new turbo is $6k and a rebuilt turbo is over $2k. They took a couple of hours to see if they could do some adjustments that would resolve the issue as an alternative and I was glad they did. Tait was able to replace some parts and keep the repair under $900 - huge savings! When I picked up the RDX I dropped off the pilot which they went though thoroughly and told me exactly what I should fix. They could have just charged me 3x as much and done the replacement or tried to charge for services that I did not need, I would not have known better. They were also upfront about the amount of time it would take and then actually finished on time and ahead of schedule. These are great guys and great mechanics and I highly recommend! If you own Hondas or Acuras and you are not using Hon-Man you are over-paying for bad/mediocre service! read more

Go somewhere else if you can. There's a professional way to say we bought a lemon, and then there's what this mechanic did. He brought us back in the garage where our car was and showed us what was wrong, so this was helpful and I appreciated it. But he was practically rubbing it in our faces that we bought a lemon. Saying condescending things like "I don't know what you guys were thinking, buying this sh%t" and making it a very unpleasant, tense experience. We even told him that we had a certified mechanic look at it before buying. We aren't all seasoned mechanics with 20+ years of experience. I think he felt he could get away with berating us because we are young adults. I hope all mechanics aren't this rude. Edit: seems they saw this review because the mechanic called and apologized for his rude behavior, turns out the car isn't a lemon(!) and will charge us for only one hour of labor vs three since it was only a wiring issue and they should have started with that. read more

Taste knows what he's doing! David is responsive. They make the perfect duo! They are both knowledgeable and direct with what NEEDS to be done vs what you WANT done. Their entire crew is easy and reliable. Truly a crack team! read more
