Consumer Description

THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT ALLOW KEY TO BE INSERTED. BEEN THIS WAY FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS AND IT STARTED WITH LOCKS DIFFICULT TO TURN. NOW NO LOCKS WORK AFTER FRANK ANCONA HONDA OF OLATHE KANSAS "REPAIRED" THEM A FEW YEARS BACK AND EVEN MADE NEW KEYS. THEY JUST TOLD ME TO FORCE THE KEYS IN AND TWIST HARD THEN TRIED TO CHARGE ME FOR SOMETHING THAT WASN'T FIXED. I DID NOT PAY FOR THE UNSATISFACTORY WORK. I'VE REPLACED DOOR LOCKS ON SEVERAL OTHER MAKE VEHICLES AND HAVE CARS THAT ARE 35 YEARS OLDER AND THOSE DOOR LOCKS WORK PERFECTLY. ONLINE I'VE NOTICED NUMEROUS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS OF VERY DISGUSTED PEOPLE. THIS PROBLEM PREVENTS US FROM BEING ABLE TO LOCKS THE DOORS WHEN LEAVING THE CAR ANYWHERE. AS A ROAD POLICE OFFICER OF 30-31 YEARS NOW I KNOW THE IMPORTANCE OF SECURITY OF BELONGINGS OR EVEN WHEN SITTING STATIONARY IN A BAD NEIGHBORHOOD. HONDA DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO REPAIR THE CRV'S DOOR LOCKS. THEY PUT DEFECTIVE EQUIPMENT INTO THE CRV. I JUST GAVE UP AND DON'T KEEP ANYTHING IN THE CRV WITH ANY HINT OF PERSONAL INFORMATION ON IT OR PROPERTY I'M NOT PREPARED TO LOSE. I DON'T WANT TO LOSE THE CAR DUE TO THEFT. OR HAVE SOMEONE PULL THE HOOD RELEASE AND STEAL BATTERY, ENGINE PARTS,... HONDA IS WORTHLESS.
