John’s Honda was founded in 1967 by John and Peggy Barnett in Malvern, and moved to their current location in Hot Springs in 2001. Three of their four children, Vickie Willingham, Mitch Barnett and Jay Barnett manage and run the business.
It is the children’s mission to carry on their parents long standing traditions of providing the best service and customer satisfaction their parents worked so hard to establish.
Vickie manages the sales department with the help of Uncle Fred, John’s brother, and Deborah Duggan and Jay and Mitch manage the service department. Mitch’s wife Karen, along with his daughter, Hannah Barnett, take care of the customer’s service, parts and accessories needs. Paul Power, Keith Strong, Jimmy Sykes, Justin Tilley and Hunter Ballentine are qualified technicians and make sure the service department runs smooth and efficiently.
