NHTSA Complaint #10405880 — 2011 HONDA ACCORD

I PURCHASE A HONDA ACCORD 2011 ON 2/18/2011. I ALWAYS GET AN OIL CHANGE VERY 3000 TO 4000 MILES. THE SECOND TIME I TOOK IT IN FOR OIL CHANGE THE TECH TOLD ME THERE IS A LEAK IN THE MAIN REAR SEAL AREA AND THAT THEY NEED THE FOR ABOUT TWO DAYS. I DIDN'T MIND IT DUE TO THAT FACT IT WAS NOT THE MAJOR REPAIR LIKE TOUCH THE ENGINE, BUT SOON AFTER I RECEIVE A CALL TELLING ME THAT THEY NEED TO CHANGE THE SHORT BLOCK OF THE ENGINE THAT'S WHEN I GOT CONCERN. IT A BRAND NEW CAR WITH A NEW ENGINE AND THEY ALREADY TO PLACE THE SHORT BLOCK ENGINE ! I WAS UPSET. I ONLY HAVE THE CAR ONLY FOR ABOUT 3 MONTH NOT AND NOW I'M PAYING NOTE FOR A NEW CAR BUT DRIVING A REBUILT HONDA ACCORD 2011. AND THE BEST PART OF MY CAR NOW IS AN THE STEERING WHEEL STARTING TO SHAKING A LITTLE WHEN IT COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP OR IN PARK. REMIND YOU MY CAR WAS IN FOR REPAIR ON 5/25/ TO 6/8/2011 AND THE SHAKING STARTED ON 6/9/2011. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND HONDA TO SEE IF THEY CAN GET ME IN TO ANOTHER CAR, SAME MODEL AND EVERYTHING. THEY BOTH TOLD ME THAT CAN'T BECAUSE THE CAR WAS A FEW MONTH OLD AND THEY WOULD LOSS SOME MONEY AND ONCE YOU SIGN THAT CONTRACT YOUR SOL AND IT NOT THEIR PROBLEM.BUT THEY ARE WILLING TO GIVE ME A ACCESSORIES FOR THAT CAR FOR CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. I GUESS ONE YEAR FROM NOW WHEN I WHEN MY CAR BRAKE DOWN THAT ACCESSORIES WOULD DO GREAT HELP. LOL . NO MORE HONDA FOR ME!!! CUSTOMER SER. SUCK.
