Consumer Description

FAILED CLEAR COAT AND FADED PAINT WERE THE FIRST PROBLEMS TO OCCUR WITH MY SILVER HONDA ACCORD. NEXT WAS THE GAS TANK LEAK, WHERE FUMES AND LEAKED GAS COULD BE SMELLED AND SEEN ON THE GROUND WHEN FILLING THE TANK MORE THAN HALF FULL. FINALLY MY PASSENGER SIDE FRONT SUBFRAME REAR CROSS MEMBER RUSTED THRU AND NOW THE CAR ISN'T SAFE TO DRIVE AND WON'T PASS INSPECTION WITHOUT MAJOR REPAIRS TO THE FRAME. NONE OF THE REST OF THE UNDER BODY IS RUSTED, JUST THAT SECTION. NOT HAPPY! *TR
