    Sunroof on accord exploded while driving. The edges of the shards were pointing upwards. Dealer is saying that we were hit by something and is not covered under warranty. Nothing hit me while driving, heard a loud explosion with glass raining down and the roof and trunk lid are visibly scratched from the glass. I've had the car for only 2 weeks when this occurred. *tr

    The a/c compressor drips directly on the subframe, which rusted it completely apart. Which in turn, destroyed the suspension. My car is now waiting to be towed back to my house, totally not drivable. I was on a city street. Normal turn around a corner. If i would have been injured, i would be filing a lawsuit against honda for extremely poor engineering and lack of thinking this horrible design flaw through…

    Clear coat is peeling off on the roof and trunk. Dealer took pictures and came back two months later saying they would paint it for $2,200.00. This is a clearly documented manufacturer's defect. Two minutes on the internet will confirm that. Recently i paid over $2,000.00 for maintenance and repairs. At that time they reminded me what a good investment it was as the car would last another 100,000 miles. Now with the…
