Description of the problem	As i reported last year, there is a vtc actuator design flaw that creates a grinding noise when the temps fall below freezing and in some cases even above freezing mainly due to lack of oil pressure and the actuator not locking correctly. Well, another winter has come and gone and there is still no hint of a fix from honda. They claim there is no damage occurring but any time i hear metal on metal i beg to differ. Unfortunately at this point i am looking at options such as trading the vehicle in as i don't know what kind of serious damage is being done each winter with metal on metal grinding. Honda sure has lost their prestigious claim of reliability in my eyes. Sadly this will be my last honda product as they don't seem to address customer concerns in any kind of timely manner.
