Consumer Description

IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT HONDA HAD A RECALL IN MARCH 2005 ON THE 2002 HONDA ACCORD FOR IGNITION PARK INTERLOCK. I CHECKED THE CAR BY LEAVING IT IN DRIVE, TURNED OFF ENGINE AND REMOVED KEY - CAR THEN BEGAN TO ROLL BACKWARDS. THIS IS WHAT THE RECALL WAS FOR. SINCE THE VIN NUMBERS DIDN'T MATCH WHAT HONDA DETERMINED TO BE FAULTY, THEY NOW SAY THAT IT ISN'T THEIR RESPONSIBILITY. I AM CONFUSED HOW THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR SOME CARS BUT NOT OURS. BECAUSE IT WASN'T LISTED WITHIN THE RANGE OF VIN NUMBERS ACCORDING TO HONDA? SEEMS LIKE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN.
