Description of the problem | I purchased this car on 3/26/10 based upon performance ratings boasted by honda. There have been manufacturers defects from the start. Currently about 118,000 miles. Early on i started hearing pinging sounds under the hood. Honda dealer said i was low on oil, put a quart in, and the sound stopped. He advised to put oil in whenever the sound occurred. This was before my first oil change. I continued to add oil as the sound re-occurred, 2-4 quarts between oil changes. I repeatedly questioned the consumption but no malfunction was found. July of 2011 honda acknowledged the problem with (tsb#11-033). In november 2011, the dealer did an oil consumption software update. At this time there was no recall. The continual cost for synthetic oil remained and the oil light never came on. An oil consumption recall issued in 2015. The car failed the oil test honda did required service as per recall protocol. The tech indicated the catalytic converter needs to be replaced but was out of warranty. Honda agreed to pay 50% of the cc repair. I declined since i have no money for this due to unemployment, nor should i put one cent into a car that has been defective from the start. My car was also recalled for takata airbags. Honda provided a rental car for 2. 5 months. I picked up the car and now the engine light is on, brakes malfunctioning and compromised cc. It is not safe to drive. I have been driving a car with a substantial defect from the day one. I have spent countless dollars on oil. There have been two recalls. The car is no longer safe or dependable due to cc and brakes. I am concerned about engine longevity. I will never be able to drive this vehicle without being fearful. I feel it is honda |
