Consumer Description

VERBATIM THE SAME TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AS EVERYONE ELSE. HONDA WAS UNWILLING TO COMPROMISE ON THIS FAULTY PART THAT'S WELL DOCUMENTED, HENCE THE INVOLUNTARY RECALL BY THE NHTSA. WE OFFERED TO WORK WITH THEM BY TRADING THIS MODEL IN FOR A NEWER ONE, TALK ABOUT US WILLING TO FORGET AND FORGIVE FOR BRAND LOYALTY. APPARENTLY HONDA DOESN'T CARE NOT WILLING TO DO EVEN THIS. THIS IS MY FOURTH HONDA AND WILL BE MY LAST. AVERAGE COST OF OWNERSHIP HAS BEEN 1000/MONTH, AT THIS POINT I COULD HAVE GOTTEN THE TESLA I REALLY WANTED.
