| Description of the problem | My honda vehicle, 2000 crv, is one of many hondas that has a defective cylinder head within the engine. This caused multiple breakdowns in my car of which many occurred at an intersection and became very dangerous to my safety and others on the road. Honda posted a technical bulletin, 03-038 that there was a defective cylinder head but most honda owners are unaware of it. I didn't receive full consideration for this part to be replaced and requested it despite my warranty being up. I feel very strongly that honda is not taking this defect seriously enough and have found many honda owners experiencing the same problem. The part needs to be recalled and addressed because honda has failed to take this bulletin more seriously given the fact that it put my safety in danger and others as well. |
