Consumer Description

ALL NEEDLES ON THE DASH FELL OFF, EXCEPT THE FUEL INDICATOR (FOR NOW). DRIVING CAR WITHOUT KNOWING MY SPEED, ENGINE TEMP, OR RPM, LET ALONE THERE ARE BRIGHT LIGHTS SHINING IN MY EYES DRIVING AT NIGHT INHIBITING MY VISION. I AM JUST FINDING OUT HONDA WAS FIXING THIS ISSUE FOR FREE, AS THEY SHOULD, BUT STOPPED AS OF DECEMEBER 2010. NOW I AM RESPONSIBLE TO REPLACE THIS KNOWN DEFECT, AND CAN BE CHARGED AROUND $900FROM WHAT I'VE BEEN READING. IS THIS EVEN LEGAL????? HOW CAN HONDA HAVE A KNOWN DEFECT, A SAFETY ISSUE AT THAT, AND NOT BE REQUIRED TO FIX THEIR PROBLEM?? IF THERE IS A LAWSUIT I WOULD LIKE TO BE INCLUDED, OR NEED TO KNOW HOW TO MAKE THEM PAY FOR THIS REPLACEMENT. *TR
