In the few years i've had my car, which i take very good care of and have low mileage on, the power steering stopped working suddenly while i was driving (very scary and dangerous!), the driver's side sun visor broke one day when i was trying to put it back up, and the dashboard sensors go off unnecessarily. Very disappointing from a honda vehicle. Beware!

The trunk has opened by itself several times. The last time was dec. 26. It is only when it is parked. I took it to the honda dealer and they said nothing was wrong with the latch, and they couldn't find the problem.

What's worse is the positive batter cable is not an easy nor economical replacement once the corrosion finds its way…
