Description of the problem	The vtc actuator is an issue on this car. The "recall" listed for this vin is 36,000 miles or 3 years, whichever comes first. This is criminal as no one will experience this issue within that time frame. It lets the manufacturer off the hook. Honda knows this is an issue as it affects many makes and models of honda cars (there is even a class action lawsuit for this particular issue for the 2014 honda crv). The car grinds at the start, sometimes not starting at all, due to high oil consumption because of the faulty vtc actuator. The cost to replace this part is $750 and does not even solve the problem. It has been documented that the problem can often reoccur after another 10,000 miles. We were once planning on staying loyal honda customers, but this fraudulence has convinced us to switch to a different manufacturer and tell everyone we know to do the same.

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.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
