| Description of the problem | The digital dashboard has gone haywire i cannot read how much fuel i have how many miles i can go how many miles are on the car when my oil needs to be changed or the temperature of the engine. This happened when i was driving and at first it was periodic it would act up then it would return to the full screen for weeks months then it would act up again and the same thing kept happening time after time finally it has gone completely haywire and i do not know how my vehicle is running because i can't read any of the gauges other than the speedometer and the tachometer there were nights when i came home and i park the car and the dashboard was completely out i came out the next morning started it up the dashboard came up full like nothing was wrong as soon as i started driving it went haywire again. I have called and been in touch with american honda they said that it is not their responsibility to fix this issue i tried to explain to them that is it a safety issue it is not something that should be going bad in a vehicle in return they told me that it is no longer under warranty and i need to replace it myself the cost would be $752 including labor and i think this is unacceptable because i cannot or my wife cannot operate this vehicle safely and i believe it's honda's responsibility to have a recall to get this issue fixed |
