Consumer Description
THE FIRST NIGHT I TOOK OWNERSHIP OF CAR, THE ENGINE LIGHT BLINKED AND THE CAR LOST POWER, AND BECAME A BRICK. HAD TO TURN CAR THE OFF, START IT, AND BEGAN TO FUNCTION NORMALLY. CAR SHOWED 3 MISFIRE CODES ON MY SCANNER P0301, P0304, P0300. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THE FIRST TIME NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. THEY CHECKED THE COMPUTER AND IT SHOWS NOTHING HAPPENED. RELUCTANT TO TAKE THE CAR I WAS, BUT LIA BREWSTER HONDA WAS VERY FORCEFUL AND TOOK THE LOANER BACK. NOT EVEN TWO NIGHTS LATER THE CAR DID IT TWICE IN ONE DRIVE CYCLE. EVERY TIME THIS HAPPENS IN THE RAIN. LIA BREWSTER HONDA HAS MY CAR NOW FOR QUITE SOME TIME AND NO ONE CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG. I AM UPSET THAT THEY TOLD ME MY CAR WAS SAFE, I HAVE A 9 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER THAT IS THE WORLD TO ME. I EXPLAINED THIS AND STILL WAS NOT TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION. MY CAR IS STILL THERE, AND NO SIGN OF BEING FIXED. ONLY PAID ONE PAYMENT ON THE CAR. THEY TOOK MY CAR DUE TO THE FACT I VIDEO TAPED THIS HAPPENING. I FEEL THE CAR IS UNSAFE FOR MY FAMILY, HOPE THIS ISN'T SOMETHING THAT BECOMES A TREND WITH 2018 HONDA 2.0T. PEOPLE'S SAFETY IS A NUMBER ONE PRIORITY. VERY UPSET I WAS TOLD NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR, AND WAS PUTS IN AN UNSAFE CONDITION.
