| Description of the problem | On september 16, 2017, while driving, we discovered a noise from the rear of the vehicle that sounded like a loose shock or strut. We brought our car in to the dealership and after several hours of inspection, it was determined that the shock went bad. So the dealership replaced the shock. On approximately january 7, the same sound has returned and we contacted the dealership. The dealership informed us that honda has issued a recall on the shocks for 2015 and 2016 models. I have conducted a search for this recall on (http://m. Owners. Honda. Com/maintenance/recalls) based on my vin and it indicates there are no recalls. I am currently requesting the paperwork from the dealership to indicate that honda has in fact issued a recall for this issue. The other concern i have a this point is that my car is at approximately 24,000 miles and i do not want to be out of warranty before this problem is addressed. |
