NHTSA Complaint #11081817 — 2006 HONDA CIVIC

I HAVE A 2006 HONDA CIVIC THAT HAS 55,000 ON IT AND IT DEVELOPED THE KNOW ISSUE OF THE CRACK IN THE ENGINE AND IS NOW LEAKING ANTIFREEZE FROM THE CRACK. HONDA DID A WARRANTY CAMPAIGN ON THIS KNOWN PROBLEM BUT ONLY FOR 10 YEARS. I CALLED HONDA CORP AND WAS BASICALLY TOLD I WAS BEYOND THE 10 YEAR MARK AND ON MY OWN FOR THE REPAIR. I FEEL THAT IF HONDA KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM THEN THEY SHOULD COVER THE COST AND MAKE IT A RECALL NOT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY CAMPAIGN. THIS CAR IS NOT DRIVEN AL LOT THAT WHY THE MILES ARE SO LOW. THIS HAPPENED AS MY SON WAS DRIVING TO SCHOOL ON A TOWN ROAD.
