Consumer Description

I HAVE THE HONDA ACCORD SE 2012. LAST TIME I TOOK IT FOR A OIL CHANGE AND WHERE THEY ALSO PERFORM A CHECK IN HONDA AUSTIN,TEXAS WHEN IT WAS ONLY 36 K MILES DONE. THEY NOTIFIED POWER STEERING FLUID IS LEAKING BUT IT IS GOOD TO GO. NOTHING MAJOR. I HAVE OBSERVED THE STEERING HAS BECOME VERY HARD RECENTLY AND MAKES A LOT OF NOISE WHILE AT LOW SPEED. I TOOK IT FOR SERVICE IN GERMAIN HONDA ON SAWMILL ROAD IN COLUMBUS. THEY INSPECTED AND TOLD ME IT WILL COST ME 1700 BUCKS. WHEN I TOLD THEM THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF COMPLAINS ON THE WEB FOR THE SAME. THEY STILL DENIED IT. A 2012 MODEL VEHILCE WITHOUT ANY ACCIDENT IF IT NEEDS 2000 DOLLAR SERVICING AND PART CHANGE IT IS VERY HARSH. I HAVE NEVER IMAGINED HONDA ACCORD CAN GIVE YOU SUCH PROBLEMS. I WILL TRY TO REACH OUT TO HONDA INCASE THEY WANT TO REPLACE THE PART.
