Consumer Description

MY HUSBAND AND I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE A FEW DAYS AGO. TODAY HE TOOK IT IN TO GET A TUNE UP AND OIL CHANGE. WHEN THE MECHANIC HAD THE CAR LIFTED HE RECOGNIZED A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF CRACKS/RUST FRAME. THE PLASTIC GAS TANK IS ABOUT TO FALL OUT OF THE METAL CASING THAT SURROUNDS IT, IT IS ALMOST COMPLETELY ATE AWAY. THERE IS ALSO A FRAME CRACK DUE TO RUST ON THE PASSENGER REAR FRAME BEHIND THE REAR TIRE. THE MECHANIC ADVISED THAT WE NOT CONTINUE TO DRIVE THIS CAR UNTIL THE ISSUE HAS BEEN RESOLVED DUE TO OUR SAFETY. WE FOUND SOME INFORMATION ON A RECALL PERTAINING TO THE SAME PROBLEMS THAT WERE OCCURRING ON OUR VEHICLE: HTTP://NEWS.HONDA.COM/NEWSANDVIEWS/ARTICLE.ASPX?ID=5798-EN WHEN WE SEARCHED OUR VIN NUMBER NO RECALLS SHOWED UP, EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS BOUGHT, SOLD, AND DRIVEN IN WHAT HONDA REFERS TO AS A "SALT BELT" STATE. NOT SURE WHY MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AS IT IS HAVING THE SAME SAFETY ISSUES AS THE VEHICLES THAT WERE RECALLED ARE HAVING. PLEASE ADVISE WHY OUR VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL WHEN IT CLEARLY HAS THE SAME ISSUES AS THE VEHICLES THAT WERE. THANKS FOR YOU TIME.
