Consumer Description

HONDA ISSUED TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB #11-033) RELATED TO EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION AND THE MAKE AND MODEL OF MY CAR AND VIN WAS IN THE RANGE OF THE VINS AFFECTED. I HAD TO REPLACE PISTON RINGS AND SPARK PLUGS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. WHEN I CONTACTED HONDA, I WAS TOLD THAT MY PARTICULAR VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THOSE AFFECTED EVEN THOUGH I WAS EXPERIENCING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM BECAUSE MY PARTS WERE NOT LISTED AS COMING FROM THE SAME MANUFACTURER. IF I'M STILL HAVING THE SAME ISSUE; MAYBE THERE IS MORE THAN ONE HONDA MANUFACTURER THAT IS AT THE ROOT OF THIS PROBLEM!
