| Description of the problem | This is a 2007 honda crv_ex-l. There was no accident involved. This complaint is in regards to the differential problem with the crv. This vehicle has only 28,000 miles on it but is 3 1/2 years old. Started have a noise problem when turning at slow speeds. Brought into dealer and they told us the differential lubricant needed to be replaced at a cost of $125. Dealer would not stand behind the problem even though car had extended warranty, because it was past 36 month. Service rep said there was a service advisory posted internally for this problem that said the lubricant needed to be changed every 15,000 to 20,000 miles, even thought the manual say 60,000. No notification was sent to owners of this advisory. Had to pay to have it fixed, but do not know if there was internal damage and service rep did not know. |
