Reported on Feb 20, 2013
| DRIVING TO WORK, I HAD THE HEAT ON. MY SON TOLD ME IT WAS SUPER COLD AND ASKED ME TO TURN THE HEAT UP, NO HEAT WAS COMING OUT IT WAS ON FULL BLAST COLD AC ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ONLY. SO I ENDED UP TURNING THE HEAT OFF AND WE BOTH SAT IN THE COLD. THIS HAPPENED FOR ABOUT A WEEK STRAIGHT AND THEN IT GOT WARMER AND I HAVEN'T HAD TO USE IT SINCE. I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THE BRAKES TWICE SINCE OWNING IT ONLY SINCE 2009. I ALSO HAD THE SMOKING COMING OUT OF THE ENGINE (POWER STEERING RECALL) - GOT IT FIXED BY HONDA ONLY AFTER MY MECHANIC CONTACTED THEM FOR THE PART - THEN THEY WERE TOLD ABOUT THE RECALL THAT I WAS NEVER INFORMED OF. THIS WEEKEND 7/28/13 I HAD TO REPLACE MY HONDA BATTERY YET AGAIN AFTER GETTING STRANDED IN ANOTHER CITY AND THE DEALERSHIP WAS CLOSED - THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IN 4 YEARS. SOMETHING IS TERRIBLY WRONG WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. TAKING MY CAR TO THE SHOP THIS AFTERNOON. *TR | |
