Consumer Description

HAVING SEEN THE NEWS REPORTS ON TELEVISION AND IN MY LOCAL NEWSPAPER ABOUT THE FIRES RESULTING AFTER THE FIRST OIL CHANGE ON 03-04 HONDA CR-VS I WAS MORE THAN APPREHENSIVE ABOUT MY FIRST OIL CHANGE. I CALLED MY DEALER TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT AND MENTIONED THE FIRE PROBLEM. THE DEALER WAS UNAWARE OF ANY SUCH PROBLEM. NOW I'M EVEN MORE CONCERNED! HOW CAN THIS BE? ISN'T HONDA DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS POTENTIAL LIFE-THREATENING ISSUE?
