Consumer Description

2006 HONDA CIVIC AT THE TIME OF INCIDENT HAD 36,929 MILES ON IT. VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER. DEALERSHIP FOUND WATER PUMP BROKE,CAUSING THE SERPENTINE BELT TO SNAP AND THE TENSION ROD TO BREAK. THERE WERE NO SIGNS OF PROBLEMS BEFORE THE VEHICLE BROKE DOWN. VEHICLE STARTED TO SMOKE. HONDA DEALERSHIP HAD TO REPLACE WATER PUMP, SERPENTINE BELT AND TENSION ROD. DEALERSHIP FELT WATER PUMP SHOULD NOT HAVE BROKEN AT THIS MILEAGE. I WAS ADVISED LATER BY ANOTHER DEALERSHIP THAT HONDA HAD CASTING PROBLEM WITH ENGINE BLOCK. SAME THING HAPPENED TO THE BOSS, ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE HONDA WAS THE SAME YEAR AND APPROXIMATELY THE SAME MILEAGE. *AK
