Consumer Description

THE 2008 HONDA CRV HAS ISSUES WITH THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM. ~ I PURCHASED MY CAR NEW CAR, AND RECENTLY BROUGHT MY CAR INTO THE DEALER FOR STATE INSPECTION. I WAS TOLD BY HENDRICKS HONDA, WOODBRIDGE, VA THAT I HAVE A LEAK IN MY RACK & PINION WHICH CANNOT BE FIXED. I HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE POWER STEERING/ RACK&PINION SYSTEMS WITH AN ALIGNMENT FOR A COST OF OVER $1600. I ASKED WHETHER THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS YEAR'S MODEL AND DIDN'T GET A STRAIGHT ANSWER. BASED ON NUMEROUS REPORTS HERE AND ON THE WEB, IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM/DEFECT WITH 2008 CRVS AND HONDA SHOULD RECALL THE MODEL. I ALSO UNDERSTAND BY REPORTS FOLKS HAVE FILED THAT THIS IS POTENTIALLY A SAFETY HAZARD, POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD. HONDA SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO RECALL AND CORRECT THE DEFECT.. *TR
