Consumer Description

INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS COMPLETELY OUT. VERY OBVIOUSLY THE SAME ISSUE REFERENCED IN NHTSA RECALL #04V256000 FOR THE LX VERSION OF THE ACCORD. YOU CAN FEEL THE HEAT COMING OFF THE PANEL (BEFORE IT WAS PERMANENTLY BROKEN.) PAID HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX IT AT A HONDA DEALERSHIP, ONLY TO FIND THAT NEW BULBS AND INSTRUMENT PANEL DIDN'T WORK. READING OVER THE NHTSA IS LIKE DEJA VU, THIS IS EXACTLY THE PROBLEM I'M FACING BUT FOR SOME REASON THE EX VERSION OF THE HONDA ACCORD IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. WELL ASK THE DEALER IF I CAN PAY TO HAVE THE SAME WORK AS THE 'SHOULD BE FREE' RECALL IS FOR THE NEARLY IDENTICAL VERSION OF THE CAR. EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING, MAKES THE CAR VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT.
