What owners report
MY CAR STARTED TO OVERHEAT ON THE WAY HOME FROM WORK. TOOK IT TO A SHOP, THEY TOLD THAT MY ENGINE BLOCK WAS CRACKED BUT IT WAS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT FROM HONDA. TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THE 10 YEAR WARRANTY EXT PASSED AND THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. MY CAR CURRENTLY ONLY HAS ABOUT 73,500 MILES AND NOW THEY WANT ME TO PAY 2500-5000 FOR FIX A PROBLEM THAT WAS FROM MANUFACTURING DEFECT. THAT SHOULD BE A RECALL AND A PROBLEM HONDA NEEDS TO FIX.
