Description of the problem	2006 honda civic with only 44,326 miles. Litterally a 6,000 mile a year driver. Driving down the street about 45 mph for about 5 minutes when i started smelling the sweet smell of coolant. Pulled over and saw that coolant was spurting out of an area south of the spark plugs about 6 inches down on the engine block. Filled it back up with coolant and made it home. No warning lights or temp increase until i made it home. If i were doing 70 on the highway, the heat and pressure would have blown it all out and my engine would have overheated. Looks like a cracked engine block with only 44k. Come to find out, that honda simply extended the warranty instead of doing a recall. Too bad us second owners didn't get the info.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
