Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE ALWAYS SEEMED TO HAVE ISSUES WHEN IDLING. AFTER 3 YEARS, IT TURNS OUT THAT THE ALTERNATOR HAD A BAD DIODE. I REPLACED THE BATTERY AFTER GETTING STUCK AND THEN FOLLOWED UP WITH A DIAGNOSTIC OF THE STARTER, ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY. IMMEDIATELY AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY, THE ALTERNATOR WAS ONLY CHARGING THE BATTERY 84%. IN ADDITION, IT SEEMS THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE BATTERIES USED BY HONDA AND SOME OTHER POSSIBLE ISSUES WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AS PER ONLINE BLOGS. TO BE HONEST, MY VEHICLE IS 38 MONTHS OLD AND HAS APPROX 51K MILES, MAKING IT OUT OF WARRANTY. IT WOULD ALSO BE FAIR TO SAY THAT AFTER HAVING WORK DONE AT THE DEALER THROUGH OUT THE YEARS THAT THIS ISSUE SHOULD HAVE SHON UP OR BEEN ADDRESSED SOONER. IT IS ALSO OF MY OPINION THAT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY SHOULD HAVE BEEN ISSUED ON THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.
