| Description of the problem | Vehicle was recalled for oil dilution issue and engine not warming up properly and gasoline smell inside vehicle. Honda repaired on 1/11/19. Recall repair did not work. Took it back on 1/16/19. Still does not work. I started vehicle in driveway and left it run for 35 minutes with heater on high and fan on high still blowing ice cold air temp gauge did not move at all. Still smell gas in vehicle engine oil is overfilled about 3/8 inch above full on dip stick. Another appointment on 2/12/19 to try and fix for third time. Saturday morning 2/9/19 at 7:10 in morning on way home from work 23 degrees out i had to put the windows down because gas smell inside vehicle was making me sick. Sunday morning at 7:10 on way home from work 17 degrees outside started vehicle up at 6:50 7:05 i got in vehicle still ice cold cleaned frost and ice off vehicle as best i could. Vehicle will not warm up unless it is driven!!! Started driving home and windshield is solid ice no sense in stopping because will not heat up unless vehicle is moving. These vehicles are accidents waiting to happen. Honda is aware of all these issues but does nothing. I guess not enough people were killed by their faulty vehicles yet and not enough lawsuits. Everyone of these vehicles should be recalled and banned from the road until repaired. I asked jones honda of lancaster pa where i bought this vehicle for a loaner car until it is repaired and they said no they do not give out loaner cars but will rent me one. I paid about $32,000 for this vehicle and this is how they treat their customers. |
