My 2017 Kia Sorento died on me as I entered the I-95 expressway in Ormond Beach Florida. I had it towed to our usual neighborhood automotive shop Honest One automotive. A few days later Liz a service technician at honest one told me that she thought that my engine had seized up and that I should contact Kia since they have a program where engines are replaced for free. I did exactly as Liz instructed me to do and contacted Daytona Kia and had my car towed there. A few days later I received a call from Daytona Kia stating that my engine did in fact freeze up and that Liz was right on the money with her diagnosis. Thank you very much for honest one and Liz for her help with getting me through this ordeal. There is no other place I would have my car tended to. 😁

Thank you, Greg, for taking the time to share your experience and for the incredible recognition of Liz and our Ormond Beach team. Having your vehicle break down entering I-95 is stressful enough, so we’re very glad we could help point you in the right direction and make the process a little easier. Liz truly cares about doing what is best for our customers, and in this case that meant helping you pursue the possible factory engine replacement through Kia instead of simply moving forward with costly repairs. We’re thrilled to hear Daytona Kia confirmed the diagnosis and that everything worked out exactly as she advised. Moments like this are what Honest-1 Auto Care is all about: honest guidance, clear communication, and helping customers make the best decision for their situation. Thank you again for your trust and loyalty. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with Liz and the entire team!

The service provided by Matt, Barrett and the rest of their team at Honest 1 Car Care was phenomenal. From the inspection, to my quote, thru my options these guys took the time to answer all my questions. Service was top notch. The free 36K mile warranty was an added bonus. Thank you H1 Auto Care and you have gained a new customer that will gladly send my friends and family your way.

I had a starter replaced. The car did not start right after that new starter was put in. I had the same problems. When I made an appointment for them to check it, I was told as long as it was running there was nothing they could do. Last week I had to take it to the dealership and they replaced it again. No problems. I wasted my money with Honest-1

Robin, thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear about the frustration — we know how important reliable starting is. We do want to clarify that when a starter is replaced, it is fully tested at the time of service to confirm proper operation. Intermittent starting concerns can sometimes be difficult to duplicate, especially if the vehicle is starting normally at the time of inspection, which may have been the situation when you brought it back in. That said, if the starter we installed was truly faulty, that would be covered under our parts and labor warranty, and we absolutely would have addressed that for you. We would have appreciated the opportunity to recheck the vehicle under those conditions. We’d still like to understand exactly what occurred and review this further with you. Please reach out to our Manager, Matt, so we can look into the details and make this right if there’s something we missed. We stand behind our work and are always here to help.

Came here a few years ago because I was having trouble with my transmission. I knew it was the transmission because the car jerked whenever it was shifting gears. They took advantage of my inexperience and insisted it was the fuel injector and told me I needed to buy higher grade gasoline. I took it to Pepboys instead and they quickly found out the problem was that I was dangerously low on transmission fluid. I didn't know how to check that at the time but I feel like checking fluids is mechanic 101, no?

This review is referencing a visit from “a few years ago,” yet we have absolutely no record of any visit under your name. You’re describing something as basic as checking fluid levels, which is a standard first-step procedure on every vehicle inspection. To suggest that was completely missed, while also claiming a completely unrelated diagnosis, does not align with how any professional shop operates—especially ours. A shifting concern is not diagnosed by assumption. There are multiple potential causes, and any legitimate process involves proper inspection and verification, not guesswork. Given the age of this claim, the lack of any record, and the inconsistencies in what’s being described, this review is highly questionable as it relates to our business. If this is truly about our location, and bothers you many years laterwe would expect you to contact us directly, provide verifiable details (vehicle, approximate date, invoice), and speak with a manager so it can be properly reviewed. Otherwise, this review should be removed or corrected, as it does not appear to reflect an actual experience with us. We document our inspections thoroughly, including photos and detailed reports, and stand behind both our process and our reputation.

They are very helpful and always really sweet

NOT HONEST AT ALL BE AWARE! I paid $2,000 to replace the shocks and this is how it ends. This is how they look after I had to replace them because when I went there for the warranty, they just gave me a speech with a bunch of lies, saying the problem wasn’t the shock bushings. And after searching the brand of the shocks they used, I found out on Amazon for $60 dollars. SCAM

Hi Ed, We take claims like this very seriously, which is why we immediately conducted a full review of our records. We have no record of you or this vehicle ever visiting our Ormond Beach location, nor any history of this type of repair being performed here. Based on that, this review does not appear to be related to our business. Posting inaccurate information that misrepresents our company is concerning, and we respectfully request that you remove or correct this review immediately if it was intended for another shop or location. If you believe this review is in fact meant for us, we ask that you contact Our Manager Matt as soon as possible so we can properly investigate. At this time, there is no supporting documentation tying this claim to our facility. Honest-1 Ormond Beach Team
