Honda Accord Engine Safety Report | June 01, 2013
Reported on June 01, 2013
| I BOUGHT THIS HONDA ACCORD LX 2013 IN AUG 2012. ABOUT A FEW MONTHS LATER, I NOTICE THE CAR ENGINE OIL LEVEL KEEP DECREASING. THEN I SEE THERE ARE OIL LEAK MARKS AT THE OVERHEAD COVER WHERE IT IS TIGHTENED TO THE ENGINE BLOCK. IN AUGUST 2013, I BROUGHT MY CAR TO NEARBY HONDA DEALER. THEY KEPT MY CAR FOR TWO DAYS AND SAID THEY REPLACED THE GASKET. BUT AFTER ONE MONTH, I STILL SEE OIL LEAKING OUT AT THE SAME SPOT. TODAY, DEC 16, 2013, I BRING MY ACCORD BACK TO THE DEALER. THEY TOLD ME I HAD TO LEAVE MY CAR THERE UNTIL TOMORROW (DEC 17) WHILE THEY ARE ORDERING ANOTHER NEW GASKET. I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED A PERSISTENT OIL LEAK HAS HAPPENED WITH A BRAND NEW HONDA ACCORD 2013 !!! I RESEARCH ON LINE AND SEE THIS ISSUE ALSO HAPPENS WITH SOME OTHER 2013 HONDA ACCORD OWNERS. *TR | |
