Honda Civic Visibility Glass, Side/rear Safety Report | Aug 09, 2000
Reported on Aug 09, 2000
| THERE APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT IN THE TEMPERLITE GLASS ON FOUR OF THE WINDOWS DESCRIBED. IT IS INSIDE THE TWO PANES OF GLASS WITH NO APPARANT CRACKS IN GLASS OR MOLDING. THE INSIDE OF THE GLASS, OR THE ADHESIVE MATERIAL USED IN BETWEEN THE GLASS IS BUBBLING WHICH CAUSES POOR VISION. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY INOPERABLE BECAUSE OF FEAR OF POOR VISIBILITY. I HAVE NOTIFIED HONDA AND AM PROVIDING THEM WITH A LETTER OF LIABILITY AND INFORMING THEM THAT I WILL BE CONTACTING SEVERAL CONSUMER SAFETY ADMINISTRATIONS AND COMMISSIONS SINCE THEY REFUSE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM UNDER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY PURCHASED FOR THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SEVERE PROBLEM WHICH SEEMS TO BE POSSIBLY CAUSED BY SOME TYPE OF CONTAMINATION OR VAPORS PRESENT WHEN THE GLASS WAS CONSTRUCTED, STORED, OR INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE. | |
