Consumer Description

IN 12/2015, THE ENGINE AND VTM4 LIGHT TURNED ON AND CONCURRENTLY, THE CAR WAS DIFFICULT TO DRIVE AS THE ENGINE REVVED AND TRANSMISSION SHIFTED. UPON INSPECTION BY HONDA, THEY FOUND THAT THE ELECTRICAL WIRES IN FRONT AND BACK WERE CHEWED ON BY RODENTS. THEY STATED THAT THE SOY COATED WIRES WERE A KNOWN ISSUE AND IT SHOULD BE COVERED BY MY INSURANCE. STATE FARM STATED THAT IT WAS NOT COVERED. I HAD TO PAY THE TOTAL BILL OF $1,543.33.
