Consumer Description

THIS IS A FACTORY CLEARCOAT FAILURE. 2004 HONDA ACCORD EXL, RED. WITHIN TWO YEARS, THE CLEARCOAT HAD STARTED TO PEEL. IN THE THIRD YEAR, I CONTACTED THE HONDA MAIN OFFICES WITH MY COMPLAINT. AFTER HAVING TWO INSURANCE ADJUSTERS, A BODY SHOP, AND AN AUTO PAINT SALESMAN LOOK AT THE CAR AND IN EVERY CASE, THEIR OPINION IS THAT THIS FAILURE IS A FACTORY DEFECT. HONDA REPEATEDLY REFUSES TO TAKE THAT RESPONSIBILITY. THE PEELING CLEARCOAT IS SPREADING LIKE A DISEASE EATING AWAY AT IT. *TR
