Description of the problem | On the 3rd row seat there is a glove box on the passenger side. The box gets extremely hot. We found out when my child put in her crayons and all the crayons melted. The rear heating system is right under there according to the dealer. I didn't realize it was hot and when removing the bag of melted crayons (which i did not realize they were melted crayons) i burned my self. This occurs every single time. On longer drives it gets even hotter. I took the car to the dealer, as the car is still under warranty. The dealer said that this was a manufacturer's defect and that there was nothing they would do. I then called honda but they said if the dealer said that they couldn't do anything then that was that. The side wall also gets quite warm. Not as hot as the box however this is a child safety hazard as children could get burned as well as anyone else who touches it. |
